  • In this paper, the motion responses with hydrodynamic interaction effect between two off-shore floating structures in various heading waves are studied by using a linearized three-dimensional potential theory. Numerical calculations using three-dimensional pulsating source distribution techniques have been carried out for twelve coupled linear motion responses and relative motions of the barge and the ship in oblique waves. The computational results give a good correlation with the experimental results and also with other numerical results. As a result, the present computational tool can be used effectively to predict the motion responses of multiple offshore floating structures in waves.

  • 전 세계적으로 천연가스의 수요가 급격하게 증가함에 따라 천연가스의 생산 및 공급이 활발하게 이루어지고 있고, 향후 10년 간 천연가스의 사용량이 현재의 2배 이상이 될 것이라는 추측도 나오고 있다. 이에 따라 천연가스 생산지에서는 천연가스 액화 플랜트(Liquefaction Plant)와 저장 탱크(LNG Storage Tank), 수입하는 곳에서는 재기화 플랜트(Regasification Plant)와 저장 탱크, 그리고 LNG를 운송할 LNG 운반선의 신조프로젝트가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 미국의 경우 911테러와 NIMBY 사고의 확대로 인하여 LNG 수입기지의 육상건설을 주민들의 반대하자 해상에 건조하려는 경향을 보이고 있으며, 이에 따라 여러 가지 형태의 LNG Offshore 터미널이 설계되고 있다. 향후 LNG의 급격한 수입이 예상되는 나라로는 미국, 중국, 인도 등이 있으며 수출국으로는 카타르가 급격하게 부상하고 있다.

  • This paper presents an electromagnetic analysis of a tubular linear machine with axially magnetized permanent magnets using improved analytical techniques. Based on the magnetic vector potential and a two-dimensional polar-coordinate system, the magnetic field and armature reaction field can be derived. Using these, equivalent circuit parameters, such as the electromotive force and inductance, can be obtained analytically. Finally, the generating characteristics are derived with the equivalent circuit method. In this study, the finite element method was employed to provide a comparative evaluation, and experiments were conducted to validate the results of the analytical analysis.

  • As for the present wind power industry, most of the computerization for monitoring and control is based on the traditional development methodology, but it is necessary to improve SCADA system since it has a phenomenon of backlog accumulation in the applicable aspect of back-data as well as in the operational aspect in the future. Especially for a system like offshore wind power where a superintendent cannot reside, it is desirable to operate a remote control system. Therefore, it is essential to establish a monitoring system with appropriate control and monitoring inevitably premised on the integrity and independence of data. As a result, a study was carried out on the modeling of offshore wind power data-centered database. In this paper, a logical data modeling method was proposed and designed to establish the database of offshore wind power. In order for designing the logical data modeling of an offshore wind power system, this study carried out an analysis of design elements for the database of offshore wind power and described considerations and problems as well. Through a comparative analysis of the final database of the newly-designed off-shore wind power system against the existing SCADA System, this study proposed a new direction to bring about progress toward a smart wind power system, showing a possibility of a service-oriented smart wind power system, such as future prediction, hindrance-cause examination and fault analyses, through the database integrating various control signals, geographical information and data about surrounding environments.

  • The offshore oil production requires a huge amount of cost and time accompanied by multiple variables due to the peculiar nature of 'offshore'. And every process concerned is controlled by elaborate series of plans for reducing loss of lives, environment and property. This paper treats an optimization problem for offshore oil production and transportation. We present an offshore production and transportation network to define scope of the problem and construct a mixed integer linear programming model to tackle it. To demonstrate the validity of the optimization model presented, some computational experiments based on hypothetical offshore oil fields and demand markets are carried out by using MS Office Excel solver. The downstream of the offshore production and transportation network ends up with the maritime transportation problem distributing the crude oil produced from offshore fields to demand markets. We used MoDiSS(Model-based DSS in Ship Scheduling) which was built to resolve this maritime transportation problem. The paper concludes with the remark that the results of the study might be meaningfully applicable to the real world problems of offshore oil production and transportation.

  • Previous long-term measurements of the Uldolmok tidal current power plant showed that the structure's natural frequencies fluctuate with a constant cycle-i.e., twice a day with changes in tidal height and tidal current velocity. This study aims to improve structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques for offshore structures under a harsh tidal environment like the Uldolmok Strait. In this study, lab-scale experiments on a simplified offshore structure as a lab-scale test structure were conducted in a circulating water channel to thoroughly investigate the causes of fluctuation of the natural frequencies and to validate the displacement estimation method using multimetric data fusion. To this end, the numerical study was additionally carried out on the simplified offshore structure with damage scenarios, and the corresponding change in the natural frequency was analyzed to support the experimental results. In conclusion, (1) the damage that occurred at the foundation resulted in a more significant change in natural frequencies compared with the effect of added mass; moreover, the structural system became nonlinear when the damage was severe; (2) the proposed damage index was able to indicate an approximate level of damage and the nonlinearity of the lab-scale test structure; (3) displacement estimation using data fusion was valid compared with the reference displacement using the vision-based method.

  • In this paper, we analyzed underwater multiple sensors acoustic communication technologies for monitoring and control of offshore plants in underwater environments. Information on underwater structure of offshore plants is transmitted and received by multiple sensors at the same time. Using multiple sensors with same frequency, we employed spread spectrum techniques to avoid interferences between these multiple sensors. Owing to the multi-path characteristic in underwater communications, the performance is degraded. In order to improve the performance of underwater multiple sensors communication, we proposed turbo equalized RAKE receiver structures. Assuming that the number of sensors is fixed to three, we conformed the effectiveness of the proposed method as compared to the conventional one.
