In this paper, the effects of a foil attached to a ship on the ship motion, added resistance, and thrust generation in waves are analyzed. The unsteady theory for a two-dimensional foil is introduced to determine the coupled motion responses of the ship and foil. The thrust caused by the oscillating foil is evaluated and compared to the added resistance of the ship, so that a positive net thrust can be possible in waves. A comparison of the results of unsteady, quasi-steady, and experimental analyses is performed.

A series of model tests on a container ship in waves was executed at the Experimental Towing Tank of Ship Research Station, KIMM. This paper presents the results of resistance, self-propulsion, propeller open-water and ship motion tests in regular head waves. Firstly, the experimental results of ship motion measured on a towed model and a self-propelled model were compared with those of Japanese results showing fairly good agreements. Secondly, the results of resistance and propulsion tests were analyzed and the data of added resistance, thrust increase, torque increase, revolution increase and self-propulsion factors in waves were presented. Also the diffraction force measured on a fixed model in waves was analyzed. Finally, this report shows the propeller characteristics in calm water based on propeller immersion and in regular waves based on wave length.

A computer program was developed to simulate effect of the initial track tension on the tractive performance of tracked vehicles. The performance was evaluated in terms of drawbar pull, motion resistance, tractive coefficient and tractive efficiency. Results of the simulation showed that increase in track tension decreases the sinkage and mean maximum pressure in clay, making the ground pressure distribution more uniform. This tendency became more evident when the number of roadwheels increased. However, such change in MMPs was negligible in firm soils. Motion resistance was also decreased with increase in track tension and the number of roadwheels. Under weak soil conditions, tractive coefficient and efficiency increased generally as the track tension increased for a slip range of 10∼30%. For slippage less than 3∼4%, however, the tractive coefficient decreased with increase in track tension. In general, it was known that increasing track tension improves tractive performance in weak soil conditions. However, high track tension can reduce efficiency due to the increment of internal motion resistance caused by increased track tension.

This study performed a numerical analysis of a 3D unsteady viscous flow in order to investigate ship motion responses running through regular waves of the platform supply vessel. The feasibility of numerical analysis was tested under the three regular wave conditions of the KRISO container ship (KCS) suggested at the 2010 Gothenburg CFD Workshop. The resulting resistance coefficient, heave motion, and pitch angle were compared with the model test of the harmonic analysis. Also, the ship motion response characteristics of the platform supply vessel were performed using the proven method of the KRISO container ship (KCS). The ship motions including the resistance coefficient, heave motion, and pitch angle according to the time series were investigated via harmonic analysis under regular waves condition of ${\lambda}/LPP=1.87$ and $H_S=0.078m$.

In this study, the analysis of 2DOF (2 Degree Of Freedom) motion and added resistance of a ship in regular head waves is carried out using RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) approach. In order to improve the accuracy for large amplitude motions, the dynamic overset scheme is adopted. One of the dynamic overset schemes, Suggar++ is applied to WAVIS which is the in-house RANS code of KRISO (Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering). The grid convergence test is carried out using the present scheme before the analysis. The target hull form is KRISO VLCC tanker (KVLCC2) and 13 wave length conditions are applied. The present scheme shows the improved results comparing with the results of WAVIS2 in the non-inertial reference frame. The dynamic overset scheme is confirmed to give the comparatively better results for the large amplitude motion cases than the non-inertial frame based scheme.

There have been many investigations of predicting the added resistance of a ship in seaway since Havelock discussed this topic in 1937. Among these researches, Maruo's theoretical approach is known as the most consistent mathematical representation for added resistance of a ship in regular head sea. In his theory, the hull form of a ship is represented under the slender body approximation. But the motion responses which were used for the calculation of the added resistance have been obtained by using the strip method which is based on an approximation that the hull form may be expressed as set of two dimensional cylinder sections in longitudinal direction. Therefore two different methods for hull form representation were implicity used in Maruo's original work for the added resistance calculation. Utilizing the characteristics that hull forms are usually slender, Kan expressed the hull form as two dimensional cylinder at each station by using the Taylor series expansion for the length wise direction. Putting this idea into Maruo's original work, the added resistance can be obtained with the explicitly unique representation of the hull form. For the purpose of comparison the added resistance of a hull form(series 60, Cb=0.6) was calculated by using the motion response obtained by Shintani. The numerical result showes a good qualitative agreement with the experimental result by Sibul.

This study investigates the effects of corrosion resistance characteristics of opponent materials in relative motion on the sliding wear behavior of mild carbon steel. Pin specimens made of mild carbon steel are tested at several sliding speeds against mating discs made of two types of alloyed steels, such as type D2 tool steel (STD11) and type 420 stainless steel (STS420J2), with different corrosion resistance characteristics in a pin-on-disc type sliding wear test machine. The results clearly show that the sliding wear behavior of mild carbon steel is influenced by the corrosion resistance characteristics of the mating disc materials at low sliding speeds. However, the sliding wear behavior at high sliding speeds is irrelevant to the characteristics because of the rising temperature. During the steady state wear period, the sliding wear rate of mild carbon steel against the type 420 stainless steel at a sliding speed of 0.5 m/s increases considerably unlike against the type D2 tool steel. This may be because the better corrosion resistance characteristics achieve a worse tribochemical reactivity. However, during the running-in wear period at low sliding speeds, the wear behavior of mild carbon steel is influenced by the microstructure after heat treatment of the mating disc materials rather than by their corrosion resistance characteristics.

To reduce lateral force of traditional plunger type piston in the swash plate type hydraulic piston pumps and motors, we have proposed rod type piston with ball joint on both ends. We have studied the theoretical reaction force on two types of piston moving in the cylinder block bore. and made an experiment for the resistance force measurement on a reciprocating motion of plunger and rod type piston, changing the test condition such as swash plate angel and supply oil pressure and so on. As a result. a rod type piston has more smaller resistance force, about 29%. than a plunger type one.

The present study provides numerical simulations to predict the added resistance and ship motion of the KVLCC2 in regular waves using the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and 3-D potential methods. This numerical analysis is focused on added resistance and vertical ship motions (heave and pitch) under a wide range of wave conditions at three ship speeds (design, operating and zero speeds). Firstly, the characteristics of the CFD and 3-D potential flow methods are presented to predict added resistance and ship motions in regular waves taking into account various wave conditions at design speed to provide a validation study as well as at operating and zero speeds. Secondly, analyses of added resistance and ship motion with unsteady wave patterns and time history results as simulated by CFD were performed at each ship speed. Systematic validation and verifications of the numerical computations in this study were made against available Experimental Fluid Dynamics (EFD) data including grid convergence tests to demonstrate that reliable numerical results were obtained for the prediction of added resistance and ship motion in waves. Relationships between added resistance, vertical motion and changes in ship speeds were also found.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of resistive exercise using an elastic band on range of motion, function and shoulder pain. Methods: Forty two subjects who had rotator cuff surgery were assigned either to a treatment or a comparison group, twenty one each. Following a six week period after surgery those in the treatment group participated in resistant exercise using an elastic band for four weeks. The subjects in the comparison group did not participate in the exercise program. The goniometer measured range of motion, a modified tool measured function, and a self report numerical rating scale measured pain. The data were analyzed using $x^2$ test, Fisher's exact, t-test and the Mann-Whitney Test. Results: Although not statistically significant, there was a trend that more subjects in the treatment group had increased range of motion. There was a statistically significance among the treatment group in terms of increased function (p=.015). Further the treatment group reported less pain that those in the comparison group (p<.001). Conclusion: The findings support that resistance exercise is an effective strategy for patients with rotator cuff repair.
