Recently, the outboard engine system of internal combustion engine is widely used in the field of small ship propulsion. However, the internal combustion engine has serious problems of energy depletion and environmental problems, so electric propulsion methods are being studied. In this paper, we have developed important motors and controllers of electric propulsion system for small marine outboard motors. The motor design was performed through the motor characteristics analysis method, and the 30Kw system was developed through the BEMF processing circuit and the power conversion circuit by the embedded microprocessor. This study was carried out through government supported projects and achieved quantitative targets through accredited institutions.

In this paper, we developed a core module of the steering system to control and operate the outboard ship with the automatic steering system, and implemented it as a complete integrated system. In particular, this paper presents the problem of the rudder sensor used in the existing system and implements the contactless rudder sensor as an improvement. In the case of existing rudder sensors, there is a problem that safety operation and economic loss of the ship operation is caused by malfunction due to immersion during use in outboard vessels. However, the proposed rudder sensor is separated from the rotary shaft to constitute a contactless type, and a circular magnet is fixed so that the rotating value can be detected and used by the Hall sensor to completely solve the flooding problem. As a result of the characteristic test, the voltage value from 1.8V to 3.2V was obtained between $-35^{\circ}$ and $+35^{\circ}$ degrees and satisfied the reference value. The proposed rudder sensor was mounted on the outboard ship, and all the performance of controller system were checked. According to the system proposed in this paper, it satisfies the Korean Standard Specification, which defines the speed of convergence in 30 seconds by switching from left to right in 7 seconds. We also confirmed that automatic steering was performed by comparing the compass sensor with the destination in the integrated controller at the start-up.

This paper presents the development of a floating outboard type of compact water jet propulsion system. The planning case of the water jet system is developed by performing precision processing after manufacturing FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastics) from plug mold casting. This system is composed of an intake, impeller, diffuser, reverse bucket, and main shaft. In addition, a rebuilt engine was applied through marine engineering. The water jet propulsion system performance was verified to discharge a maximum $0.29m^3/s$ of flow rate and 37 m/s of flow velocity in a test pool on land. A field test was performed by installing the water jet propulsion device on board a ship that was tested off the coast of Korea. The weight of the hull, engine, and other equipment was approximately 1.2 tons, and the sailing speed was a maximum 22 knots at 3,600 rpm.

This paper describes the nonlinear dynamic motion behavior of a ship equipped with a portable dynamic positioning (DP) control system, under external forces. The waves, current, wind, and drifting forces were considered in the calculations. A self-tuning controller based on a neuro-fuzzy algorithm was used to control the rotation speed of the outboard thrusters for the optimal adjustment of the ship position and heading and for path tracking. Time-domain simulations for ship motion with six degrees of freedom with the DP system were performed using the fourth-order RungeeKutta method. The results showed that the path and heading deviations were within acceptable ranges for the control method used. The portable DP system is a practical alternative for ships lacking professional DP facilities.

The planing hull is characterized by a large change in the posture according to the speed, and the shape of the propeller varies, so that the hull resistance varies greatly depending on the propeller used. Especially, the Savitsky system, which is widely used for estimating the resistance of planing hull, does not consider the characteristics of these propeller and ship bottom spray rails. In this paper, in order to investigate the difference in resistance characteristics between the propeller and the bottom of the propeller of 6m and 12m class propeller using propeller such as outboard or stern drive, A comparative test was conducted on resistance and attitude posture changes in the Circulating Water Channel of Institute of Medium & Small Shipbuilding. As a result of comparison test, it was confirmed that there is a clear difference in the attitude change due to the presence of the bottom floor spray rail and the change in resistance characteristics due to the installation of the propeller. However, attitude change with the propeller was found to be insignificant.

This study presents three different magnetization models for identifying unknown magnetization of the ferromagnetic thin plate of a ship. First, the forward problem should be solved to accurately predict outboard magnetic fields due to the magnetization distribution estimated at a certain time. To achieve this, three different modeling methods for representing remanent magnetization (i.e., magnetic charge method, magnetic dipole array method, and magnetic moment method) were utilized. Material sensitivity formulas containing the first-order gradient information of an objective function were then adopted for an efficient search of an optimum magnetization distribution on the hull. The validity of the proposed methods was tested with a scale model ship, and field signals predicted from the three different models were thoroughly investigated with reference to the experimental data.

A 25ft class fishing leisure boat is developed, and the resistance performances are investigated by a model test in a high-speed circulating water channel. The design speed of the developed ship is 25 knots using a 150 ps outboard engine. A catamanan type hull form using a planing section is adopted considering the Froude number and large deck area. The effect of a center body attached on the bottom of the cross deck is studied under various conditions. Wave patterns are observed to make clear the relationship between the resistance performance and the wave characteristics. The results show that the shape of the center body and the position of the chine line can have a strong effect on the resistance performance in a certain velocity range.

The paper described the nonlinear dynamic motion behavior of a barge equipped with the portable outboard Dynamic Positioning(DP) control system in short-crested waves. The DP system based on the fuzzy theory is applied to control the thrusters to optimally adjust the ship position and heading in waves. In addition to the short-crested waves, the current, wind and nonlinear drifting force are also included in the calculations. The time domain simulations for the six degrees of freedom motions of the barge with the DP system are solved by the $4^{th}$ order Runge-Kutta method. The results show that the position and heading deviations are limited within acceptable ranges based on the present control method. When the dynamic positioning missions are needed, the technique of the alternative portable DP system developed here can serve as a practical tool to assist those ships without equipping with the DP facility.

본 논문에서는 선박간의 충돌이나, 항구시설과의 충돌 등으로 선체에 파공이 발생하여 선박내부에 저장되어 있던 해수 및 오염물질이 해양으로 유출되는 해양 재난상황에서 원격제어 방식으로 파공봉쇄장치가 선체 외벽에 부착 이동을 통해 파공부에 접근하여 파공을 봉쇄할 수 있는 장치를 개발하고 성능을 실험적으로 연구 하였다. 이러한 장치는 인력투입이 불가능한 상황에 신속한 초동 조치를 취할 수 있으며 인력으로 불가능한 압력으로 유출되는 상황에서도 봉쇄가 가능한 장치로 개발하였다. 본 연구를 통해 파공부를 직접적으로 봉쇄하는 장치인 봉쇄 패드의 성능시험의 결과 직경 150mm 파공에서 유출압 0.1~0.75bar의 상황에서 안정적인 봉쇄성능을 실험적으로 검증하였다. 또한 봉쇄패드가 결합된 통합방재로봇인 외부 투입형 선박파공 봉쇄 장치를 원격제어하여 0.1 bar의 압력에서 봉쇄 성능 시험을 성공하였다.
