In recent years Fiber optic hydrophone systems have been the focus of much attention in the sonar world. For sonar arrays, a fiber optic approach offers the major benefit of passive multiplexing of large numbers of hydrophones without underwater electronics. This paper describes recent development work covering array construction, opto-electronics development, hydrohpone design and sea trials. And the development of an interferometric mult-channel fiber optic hydrophone system which uses time division multiplexing capable of driving in excess of 32 channel is described. For this, a 12 channel time division multiplexing array has been constructed, and the performance of this system is demonstrated by sea trial.

When a planing hull straightly runs and turns, its floating position and pitch angle are changed depending on its speed, and large transient motion happens. In this paper, six degrees of freedom(6 DOF) equations of motion, which could simulate the motion of a planing hull, are established. Static and dynamic forces in vertical plane are modeled using pre-calculated displacements and metacentric heights depending on various draft, lift under bottom, and vertical damping coefficients which are used to tune the final motion. Hydrodynamic coefficients in horizontal plane at various equilibrium state are calculated by using Lewandowski's empirical formula and the speed-dependent equilibrium state are calculated beforehand by Savitsky's formula. The speed effects are considered by curve-fitting the coefficients at various speed to the polynomials. Accelerating, decelerating and backing, turning, and zig-zag are simulated and compared with the sea trial results, and it is confirmed that the speed reduction, roll, and pitch during such maneuvers of sea trial and simulation are well consistent.

A comparison between sea trial measurements and full-scale CFD results is presented for two self-propelled ships. Two ships considered in the present study are: a general cargo carrier at Froude number $F_n=0:182$ and a car carrier at $F_n=0:254$. For the general cargo carrier, the propeller rotation rate is fixed and the achieved speed and trim are compared to sea trials, while for the car carrier, the propeller rotation rate is adjusted to achieve the 80% MCR. In addition, three grids are used for each ship in order to assess the grid refinement sensitivity. All simulations are performed using the Naval Hydro pack based on foam-extend, a community driven fork of the OpenFOAM software. The results demonstrate the possibility of using high-fidelity numerical methods to directly calculate ship scale flow characteristics, including the effects of free surface, non-linearity, turbulence and the interaction between propeller, hull and the flow field.

In order to investigate the maneuverability of tug-barge, sea trial tests such as speed, acceleration/deceleration, $10^{\circ}$ turning, $20^{\circ}$ turning, $10^{\circ}/10^{\circ}$ zigzag and $20^{\circ}/20^{\circ}$ zigzag were conducted with both tug and tug-barge. From the result of turning test, longer tactical diameter and lower rate of turn of tug-barge than those of tug are obtained. From the result of the zigzag test, bigger overshoot angle of tug-barge than that of tug is obtained. When they turned or changed a course, it showed that the barge turned inner side of the trajectory of tug. For the safe navigation, the helmsman of tug-barge should be aware of these maneuvering characteristics.

This study describes sea trial tests for a waterjet propulsion system attached in the hybrid super high speed cargo ship named "Narae". A measuring technique of jet velocity, gross thrust and impeller torque for the waterjet system is explained. From the measured data in sea trial test, performance of the waterjet propulsion system is analyzed and compared with model test results of a similar waterjet system which was carried out in 1996. The erective horse power estimated from sea trial tests shows a good agreement with resistance test results of the model ship. The optimum rising height is estimated as 0.75 m, and the overall efficiency of the waterjet system is predicted as 0.315 at 15 knots. Useful data such as the pump performance, the jet efficiency, the losses of inlet duct and nozzle were obtained. Test results show a similar behavior to the model test results.

In this paper, we discussed automatic target tracking algorithms for diver detection sonar that observes penetration forces of coastal military installations and major infrastructures. First of all, we analyzed sea trial data in diver detection sonar and composed automatic target tracking algorithms based on track existence probability as track quality measure in clutter environment. In particular, these are presented track management algorithms which include track initiation, confirmation, termination, merging and target tracking algorithms which include single target tracking IPDAF (Integrated Probabilistic Data Association Filter) and multitarget tracking LMIPDAF (Linear Multi-target Integrated Probabilistic Data Association Filter). And we analyzed performances of automatic target tracking algorithms using sea trial data and monte carlo simulation data.

This paper introduces a general overview of the 6000m class deep-sea ROV. Hemire and Henuvy. and then describes its motion control system. It is developed by Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute(KORDI) for 6 years since 2001. sponsored by the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and, Fisheries (MOMAF). Hemire is remotely operated by a fiber optic telemetry. where 6 thrusters are controlled by operator in manual mode and by auto depth control and auto heading control in auto mode. In this paper. operational mechanism of manual and automatic mode with some convenient functions for operator is desc.ribed. Finally, results of sea trial conducted at the Philippine sea where a depth is 5.770m are shown.

In order to contribute to trial of the ocean weather forecasts, we have developed new generation sea surface temperature. It is clod free, high-spatial resolution daily SST product, which enables us to follow the movements of SST patterns relating to the oceanic variations. The product is produced through an objective analysis merging various infrared and microwave SST products.

Capability and performance of the pliers type coupling device for connection of sea eel pots to loop of main line and automatic separating system were investigated at sea as first trial of developing automatic operating system for sea eel pot fishing boat. Obtained main results are as follows. 1. Maximum tensile load of the pliers type coupling device when connection with high twist PP dan-line as a loop of main line was 1603 N, higher than when connection with low twist PP twine 1379 N. 2. A retention ratio of sea eel pots from main line by connecting with coupling device was successful 100% with high performance without any loss in the sea. 3. A ratio of automatic disconnection between sea eel pots using coupling device and loop of main line was perfect 100% without any trouble.
