Marine casualties are caused mainly by collisions and grounding, due to human error. The SMART Navigation Service is preparing a measure to reduce marine casualties caused by human error and establish an LTE Accident Vulnerability Monitoring System (SV10) to evaluate the danger of collision or grounding for a vessel based on location information collected on land. This service will also share real-time vessel locations and danger information with related agencies to enable them to respond more quickly to accidents on land. In this study, statistical reports on marine casualties and investigation reports provided by the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal are analyzed, so the percentage of marine casualties that could be reduced using the SV10 service could be identified.

Route Design & TSS(Traffic Separation Scheme) establishment are often used to improve the marine traffic safety in the heavy waters. There are several domestic and international route design guidelines, but there is no guideline of TSS design. So, TSS is designed by specialist's subjective opinion. Until now, when TSS is designed there are a few paper about the easiness effectiveness of marine accident, but there is no paper to design TSS guideline. This paper proposes the design guideline about TSS to improve the safety of navigation vessel by the quantitative assessment in the viewpoint of mariner.

Since the routes within VTS areas include harbour limit of major ports, there are sections where the traffic volume increases and the routes are normally narrow according to the geographical conditions. In the case of ports and VTS areas located on the west coast of Korea, it is affected by strong current due to large tidal differences. In this paper, we propose a method to produce useful information according to the change of navigation environment by analyzing the characteristics of ship's movement according to tidal stream or current. The SVR seaway model, support vector regression, and grid search were conducted in order to extract models.

In the maritime digital forensic part, it is very important and difficult process that analysis of data and information with vessel navigation system's binary log data for situation awareness of maritime accident. In recent years, anaysis of vessel's navigation system's trajectory information is an essential element of maritime accident investigation for vessel digital forensic process. So, we analysis of maritime navigation systems of vessel and feature of device and environments. In the future, we will research on information of ship's trajectory and movement for useful forensic service.

It is the well-known fact that most part of goods transported are moved on the unfavorable ocean and even a small amount of accident on sea is extremely dangerous for human lives, financial losses, and social responsibility. Among the several causes of accidents, those by fire have occurred frequently and their damage has been highly serious. The aim of this paper is to assess the risk of fires due to oil leakage in the machinery space. To define the possible fire scenario, our team has performed the search of casualty database and reviewed the previous and various studies in the field. As a result, it is noted that the quantitative risk of the fire scenario have been evaluated on the ground of the FSA risk model. The expected frequency of a fire amounts to incidents during the life of a ship, and the expected financial damage amounts to 5,654 USD per a ship. By adopting Safety Instrumented System (SIS) introduced in IEC 61508 and IEC 61511, SIS model is designed to prevent oil leakage fire as a risk reduction method. It is concluded that System Integrity Level (SIL) 1 seems to be appropriate level of SIS.

UNCLOS recognizes the right of innocent passage in the ocean but grants jurisdiction and governance to the state of the flag the vessel flies. However, by granting the right to determine vessel's nationality to each country in UNCLOS and by practically consenting inconsistency with the ownership and the state of flag has made the keeping of maritime order quite difficult. Especially, acknowledging the exclusive rights of the flag state on criminal jurisdiction hinders the owner state from exercising its rights and exposes the problem of not taking into account the opinion of the affected state party. This study addresses these issues and examines international regulations on vessels and flag states, mainly UNCLOS, and provides case studies on how criminal jurisdiction is determined when accidents occur at sea. Furthermore, it takes a deeper look into the mutual assistance system in criminal matters and proposes some alternatives on how to overcome these issues.

With the development of electronic communication technology, the ship's navigational equipment is being digitized, and it has being studied touch-screen-based navigation user interface. However, due to the influence of environmental factors such as waves, it has a potential problem hazardous marine accident occurs due to incorrect operation, the systematic research in consideration of this be done do not. In this paper, we provide a user interface experimental model to verify the stability that takes into account the external environment of the touch-screen input on. Further, we simulated to verify that the interface of the touch screen, the effect of applying the input delay time and the size of the button is obtained through the experimental model proposed. It will be able to greatly contribute to studies of the interface robust touch screen user errors that can be analyzed by the experimental model is proposed to improve the ship, the overall system stability.

Human error is an important cause of maritime accidents and the identification of human error is fundamental to maritime-accident preventions. In particular, the pattern of technical behavior taken in the circumstance of bridge teams(navigator & helmsman) provides important information to identify human error. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze technical behavior pattern of bridge teams using Williamson's turn for rescue of persons overboard. The focus of this study is to build and analyze a cognitive model of the human behavior factors of the bridge teams in the process of implementing the experiments. The experimental environment was constructed using a ship-handling simulator and conducted an experiment on participants from 24 bridge teams. As a result of the experiment, it was able to identify the behavior pattern of the ship's maneuvering and maintain trajectory using the rudder and engine. This study is expected to correct human error in the bridge teams application to the certification and training of seafarers.

To assess the possible collision risk between Mokpo Harbour Bridge, which is under construction, and passing vessels, we proposed Real-Time Bridge-Vessel Collision Model (RT-BVCM) in this paper. The mathematical model of RT-BVCM consists of the causation probability by the vessel aberrancy due to navigation environments, the geometric probability by the structural feature of a bridge relative to a ship size and, the failure probability by the ship collision track and the stopping distance which is not to come to a stop before hitting the obstacles. Then, the probabilistic mathematical model represented as risk index with the risk level from 1 to 5. The merit of the proposed model to the collision model proposed by AASHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials) is that it can provide enough time to take adequate collision avoiding action. Through the simulation tests to the two kinds of test ships, 3,000 GT and 10,000 GT, it is cleary found that the proposed model can be used as a collision evaluation model to the passing vessel and Mokpo Harbour Bridge.

The General Conference of International Labour Organization adopted the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 which created a single, coherent instrument embodying as far as possible all up-to-date standards of existing international maritime Conventions and Recommendations in its Ninety-fourth session on 23 February 2006. This Convention prescribes the social security for seafarers in the Regulation 4.5 in the Title 4. Regulation 4.1-Medical care on board ship and ashore and Regulation 4.2-Shipowner's liability are related to social security for seafarers. For the purpose of ratifying this Convention in our country, first of all, it is necessary to review the domestic laws and regulations concerned whether they fulfill or not the requirements of the Convention and have to make preparation insufficient sections. Therefore, this paper aims to find out different regulations between the domestic law and the Convention, as to be able to accept the requirements regarding the social security of the Convention, also suggest the solution on problems derived in this process.
