An integrated ship area network has functionality of remote control and autonomous management of various sensors and instruments embedded or boarded in a ship. For such environment, an wireless bridge is essential to transmit control and/or managing information to sensors or instruments from a central integrated ship area network station. In this paper, one of reliable schemes of WiMedia based wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission using WiMedia distributed MAC protocol is proposed to increase a communication reliability between cluster headers, irrespective of channel variation. Simulation results show that the proposed wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission scheme increases communication reliability.

When designing a ship, ergonomic considerations are crucial when minimizing a navigator's fatigue due to the burden of work, and to appropriately operate the navigational equipment for each given situation by helping the operator to understand the surroundings as well as the physical functions of the ship. However, insufficient consideration of ergonomic elements in the actual design of ship Bridges is lowering the performance of safe navigation and allows for the possibility of operation or readout errors. Consequently, these errors lead to an increase in maritime accidents. Therefore, this study conducted a usability evaluation on the importance of and the usage frequency of navigational equipment, their influence on actual navigation, and the possibility of error upon operation or readout between training ship officers, to derive an optimized layout that includes the consideration of ergonomic factors for on-Bridge navigational equipment, which are currently arranged differently according to their type or size. The optimized layout of on-Bridge navigational equipment was carried out based on the evaluation results, using the Lingo program. Through the process of optimization, revised layouts of on-Bridge navigational equipments(control and display device) were suggested, considering emergency situations(ship collision, stranding, fire and explosion, sinking, etc.) during navigation.

The wheelhouse front glass of a Fore-Bridge-Ship (Ro-Ro Ship) was broken by the shipping of water in rough seas, and then the flooding of seawater into the wheelhouse caused the uncontrollable condition of the ship. The hull which was entered into the floating condition rolled severely, and the heavy rolling caused secondary damage such as the collapse of a lot of cargo. It was an incredible accident because the height of bow freeboard was about 2.5 times higher than the standard height of minimum bow freeboard regulated by the International Load Line Convention(1966). And it would be also difficult for navigators to imagine a great deal of seawater flooding into the wheelhouse because the front glass was positioned at about 20m height above the sea surface. In this paper, we carried out the evaluation for the safety navigation of the Fore-Bridge-Ship numerically against ship's speed and encountering angle to the wave in each sea state of rough sea, by using the integrated seakeeping performance index (ISPI) which is able to evaluate synthetically the safety operation of ships. And then the problem on the application of the past criteria proposed as the safety navigation of a merchant ship was clarified by inquiring the dangerousness of the shipping of water at her bow deck, which caused the breakage of the wheelhouse front glass.

최근 국내에서는 원활한 물류 수송과 도로 이용자의 편의를 도모하기 위해 항만 및 주요 항로를 횡단하는 대형 해상교량 건설이 활발하게 추진되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 해상교량건설이 육상 도로시스템의 연장선상에서 경제 원리에 입각하여 추진된다면 이는 해상교통안전 확보에 지장을 초래할 수도 있을 것이다. 이러한 위험요소를 사전에 검증하고 통항안전성 유무를 평가하기 위하여 대표적인 방법으로 선박조종시뮬레이션을 채택하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 전 기능 선박조종시뮬레이터(FMSS)를 보유하고 있는 대표 4개 기관에서 해상교량 건설과 관련하여 수행했던 통항안전성 평가 보고서를 비교 분석하여, 각 기관별 수행 방법에 대한 차이점과 문제점을 도출하고, 향후 시뮬레이션의 수행 및 평가 방법에 대한 표준화 필요성을 제시하고자 한다.

The Incheon Bridge, which was opened to the traffic in October 2009, is an 18.4 km long sea-crossing bridge connecting the Incheon International Airport with the expressway networks around the Seoul metropolitan area by way of Songdo District of Incheon City. This bridge is an integration of several special featured bridges and the major part of the bridge consists of cable-stayed spans. This marine cable-stayed bridge has a main span of 800 m wide to cross the vessel navigation channel in and out of the Incheon Port. In waterways where ship collision is anticipated, bridges shall be designed to resist ship impact forces, and/or, adequately protected by ship impact protection (SIP) systems. For the Incheon Bridge, large diameter circular dolphins as SIP were made at 44 locations of the both side of the main span around the piers of the cable-stayed bridge span. This world's largest dolphin-type SIP system protects the bridge against the collision with 100,000 DWT tanker navigating the channel with speed of 10 knots. Diameter of the dolphin is up to 25 m. Vessel collision risk was assessed by probability based analysis with AASHTO Method-II. The annual frequency of bridge collapse through the risk analysis for 71,370 cases of the impact scenario was less than $0.5{\times}10^{-4}$ and satisfies design requirements. The dolphin is the circular sheet pile structure filled with crushed rock and closed at the top with a robust concrete cap. The structural design was performed with numerical analyses of which constitutional model was verified by the physical model experiment using the geo-centrifugal testing equipment. 3D non-linear finite element models were used to analyze the structural response and energy-dissipating capability of dolphins which were deeply embedded in the seabed. The dolphin structure secures external stability and internal stability for ordinary loads such as wave and current pressure. Considering failure mechanism, stability assessment was performed for the strength limit state and service limit state of the dolphins. The friction angle of the crushed stone as a filling material was reduced to $38^{\circ}$ considering the possibility of contracting behavior as the impact.

본 연구에서는 현수교의 선박충돌해석을 위한 설계선박을 결정하기 위하여 선박충돌위험도해석을 수행한다. 선박충돌에 대한 설계선박을 결정하기 위하여 AASHTO 설계기준에서 제시한 3개의 선박충돌 설계방법 중 확률기반 해석방법인 Method II를 사용한다. 선박충돌 위험에 노출된 각각의 교각에 대해 선박충돌위험도 평가를 하여 교각의 충돌설계수평강도를 결정한다. 해석과정은 반복적인 것으로 교량부재의 충돌저항강도를 가정하고 연간파괴빈도를 계산하여 허용기준이 만족하도록 설계 변수를 수정한다. 허용기준은 예상연간파괴빈도에 근거한 가중치를 이용하여 교각에 할당한다. 해석결과에서 안전성과 경제성을 얻기 위해 이 할당방법을 주탑집중 할당방법과 비교한다. 비록 주탑집중 할당방법이 주탑에 비해 과대평가되는 교각의 설계수평강도를 적절히 수정할 경우 보다 경제적인 결과를 가져오지만, 가중치에 의한 할당방법이 설계인자의 특성을 정량적으로 고려하기 때문에 더 합리적인 것으로 보인다. 그리고 선박충돌위험도 평가로부터 얻어지는 충돌설계수평강도에 상응하는 각각의 교각에 대한 설계선박이 결정된다. 같은 교량에 대해서도 충돌설계수평강도가 수로 및 교량의 특성과 선박통행량에 따라 상당히 변화한다. 따라서 허용기준의 할당과 설계선박 선정에 대한 많은 연구가 요구된다.

The kinetic energy during ship collision with bridge piers is released as the permanent deformations of structure and friction between the impact surfaces. So the ship collision energy is estimated from the equations of motions for ship-pier collisions which include the influence of the surrounding water, different impact angles and impact locations. The normal impact energy and tangent impact energy at a collision location and angle can be transformed into the normal impact force and friction force acting on the structure. Also the kinetic energy after collisions is calculated from the linear and angular impulse of ship collisions. The collision energy absorption system such as the protective structures for bridges is designed by evaluating the damage portions of ship and structure during the ship-structure collisions varying from the soft impact to hard impact and then the estimation of it will be suited for the design of protective measures.

Ships' collision accident has often occurred in congested waterways or in harbour areas. To examine the cause of collision accident may be necessary to prevention against another similar one. We discuss the construction of ship-manoeuvring-simulator system used for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon The system consists of one simulator bridge for own ship and two control consoles for own ship and target ship. Own ship and target ship are linked each other, and are simultaneously manoeuvred in simulator bridge or at control console respectively. And a simulator experiment for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon and for examining the cause of accident is carried out. Through the present case study, we find out that the constructed simulator system is very useful for reproducing ships' collision phenomenon and for examining the cause of accident.
