  • In the present article, wave imaging mechanisms were investigated using airborne Pi-SAR (Polarimetric-Interferometric SAR) X-band VV images of ocean waves around the Miyake Island at approximately 180 km south from Tokyo, Japan. Two images of a same scene were produced at approximately 20 min. interval from two directions at right angles. One image shows dominant range travelling waves, but the other image shows a different wave pattern. This difference can be caused by the different image modulations of RCS and velocity bunching. In this study, 18 subimages are extracted, and the directional wave spectra are compared to each other of the two different areas.

  • Analysis of ship parametric roll has generally been restricted to simple analytical models and sophisticated time domain simulations. Simple analytical models do not capture all the critical dynamics while time-domain simulations are often time consuming to implement. The model presented in this paper captures the essential dynamics of the system without over simplification. This work incorporates various important aspects of the system and assesses the significance of including or ignoring these aspects. Special consideration is given to the fact that a hull form asymmetric about the design waterline would not lead to a perfectly harmonic variation in metacentric height. Many of the previous works on parametric roll make the assumption of linearized and harmonic behaviour of the time-varying restoring arm or metacentric height. This assumption enables modelling the roll motion as a Mathieu equation. This paper provides a critical assessment of this assumption and suggests modelling the roll motion as a Hills equation. Also the effects of non-linear damping are included to evaluate its effect on the bounded parametric roll amplitude in a simplified manner.

  • Latching control was applied to a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) buoy with direct linear electric Power Take-Off (PTO) systems oscillating in heave direction in waves. The equation of the motion of the WEC buoy in the time-domain is characterized by the wave exciting, hydrostatic, radiation forces and by several damping forces (PTO, brake, and viscous). By applying numerical schemes, such as the semi-analytical and Newmark ${\beta}$ methods, the time series of the heave motion and velocity, and the corresponding extracted power may be obtained. The numerical prediction with the latching control is in accordance with the experimental results from the systematic 1:10-model test in a wave tank at Seoul National University. It was found that the extraction of wave energy may be improved by applying latching control to the WEC, which particularly affects waves longer than the resonant period.

  • This paper proposes a novel method for efficient prediction of joint distributions of heights and periods of nonlinear ocean waves. The proposed novel method utilizes a transformed linear simulation which is based on a Hermite transformation model where the transformation is chosen to be a monotonic cubic polynomial, calibrated such that the first four moments of the transformed model match the moments of the true process. This proposed novel method is utilized to predict the joint distributions of wave heights and periods of a sea state with the surface elevation data measured at the Gulfaks C platform in the North Sea, and the novel method's accuracy and efficiency are favorably validated by using comparisons with the results from an empirical joint distribution model, from a linear simulation model and from a second-order nonlinear simulation model.

  • In fire suppression, continuous delivery of water or foam to the fire source is essential. The present study concerns fire suppression in a ship under sea condition, by introducing reinforcement learning technique to aiming of fire extinguishing nozzle, which works in a ship compartment with six degrees of freedom movement by irregular waves. The physical modeling of the water jet and compartment motion was provided using Unity 3D engine. In the reinforcement learning, the change of the nozzle angle during the scenario was set as the action, while the reward is proportional to the ratio of the water particle delivered to the fire source area. The optimal control of nozzle aiming for continuous delivery of water jet could be derived. Various algorithms of reinforcement learning were tested to select the optimal one, the proximal policy optimization.

  • The interaction of oblique monochromatic incident waves with a horizontal flexible membrane is investigated in the context of two-dimensional linear hydro-elastic theory. First, analytic diffraction and radiation solutions for a submerged impermeable horizontal membrane are obtained. Second, the theoretical prediction was compared with a series of experiments conducted in a two-dimensional wave tank at Texas A&M University. The measured reflection and transmission coefficients reasonably follow the trend of predicted values. Using the developed computer program, the performance of surface-mounted or submerged horizontal membrane wave barriers is tested with various system parameters and wave characteristics. It is found that the properly designed horizontal flexible membrane can be an effective wave barrier and its efficiency can be further improved using a porous material.

  • In the present paper, a numerical and experimental analysis for a wave energy converter under extreme environmental conditions is carried out. After the definition of design waves, including a 100-year return period stochastic sea state and a deterministic rogue wave condition, a numerical analysis using potential theory and a RANS equations solver are compared with experiments carried out at the Seakeeping Basin at the Technical University of Berlin. Results are discussed with special emphasis on the limits of potential theory methods for the evaluation of extreme wave conditions and the use of the presented methodology for early design stages.

  • 본 연구에서는 Boussinesq 방정식을 이용하여 유도한 한 쌍의 상미분방정식을 이용하여, 수심이 완만히 변하는 일정 경사면의 정현파형 지형 및 복합정현파형 지형에서의 Bragg반사를 해석하였다. 입사파는 크노이드파를 사용하였으며, 입사파의 분산성과 해저지형의 형태가 반사에 미치는 영향에 관하여 검토하였다. 해석결과에 의하면 정현파형 지형의 경우에는 입사파 분산성의 크기와 정현파형 지형의 진폭이 증가할수록 반사율이 증가하였으며, 복합정현파형 지형의 경우에는 지형의 진폭이 증가할수록, 해저지형을 구성하는 두 개의 정현성분 파수의 차가 감소할수록 반사율의 크기는 증가하였다.

  • 파랑과 흐름이 공존하는 해안에서의 비점착성 퇴적물이동에 대하여 육지-외해방향 총 퇴적물 이동률을 산정할 수 있는 경험식을 제안한다. 본 경험식은 파랑만 존재하는 경우와 흐름만 존재하는 경우에도 범용적으로 사용할 수 있다. 해수면 기준 비대칭인 파랑을 이용하여 퇴적물의 부상률과 이동거리의 곱으로 단위면적당 총 퇴적물 이동률을 계산할 수 있다. 대체로 파고가 큰 파랑이 입사하는 경우 퇴적물은 외해방향으로 이동하는 반면 파고가 작은 파랑의 경우 육지방향으로 퇴적물을 이동시키는 경향을 본 예측식이 잘 재현하고 있다. 또한 장주기 파랑의 경우 퇴적물을 육지방향으로 이동시키려는 경향을 본 예측식이 잘 보여준다.

  • 이 논문에서는 홍도와 마라도에서의 파랑의 통계적 특성을 살펴보았다. 두 지역에서의 스펙트럼법과 시계열에서 얻은 유의파고를 이용하여 파고주기결합분포를 얻었으며 여러 가지 통계적인 특성을 살펴보았다. 주파수의 대역폭이 협대역이 아닌 경우에 개별 파고분포에 롱기히긴스가 제안한 수정레일리분포를 사용할 수 있다. 그러나 이 분포함수는 경험상수를 결정해야하는 불편함 때문에 널리 사용되지 않고 있었다. 본 논문에서는 수정레일리분포의 경험상수를 결정하는 간단한 방법을 제안하였다. 설계파고의 추정에서 서로 다른 분포함수 선택에 따른 영향은 크지 않다. 그러나 스펙트럼법과 시계열에서 얻은 파랑자료 사용에 따라서 한계파고의 추정치는 큰 차이를 보인다.
