  • A PC-based system for both monitoring and controlling SAUV is developed. The developed system is located on a ship and communicate with the SAUV through optical link through which the system sends motion command and receives video data, SSBL and Digital I/O data. The motion command includes velocity data and direction data. The overall system is developed with the intention of easy operation for operator and safe motion of SAUV. The easy operation is realized by GUI-based interface and the safe motion is realized by fault tolerant capability.

  • The first objective of this study is to derive an automated method that minimizes the number of spline regions and optimizes the locations of the knots to provide and adequate fit of a given nonlinear function. This has been accomplished by the development of the Optimal Spline Method discussed herein. The second objective is to apply the derived automated method to an important application. This objective has been accomplished by the successful application of the Optimal Spline Method to ship classification.

  • This paper presents algorithm including Kalman filter for transfer alignment of velocity and quaternion matching method, when master inertial navigation system is a gimbled type and slave inertial navigation system is a strapdown type on a cruising ship which is naturally in motion of horizontal axis attitude. And relative attitudes are considered on a measurement equation for quaternion matching between master INS and slave INS.

  • As a shipboard dependency for the safety and reliability becomes very important, the need for solid systems providing non-stop workload has been increased. This system is heartbeat that transmits shipboard state, audit and control information to the land. So, this paper describes a ship's LAN configuration method for the safety and reliability. In order to achieve these requirements, network, server and disk fault tolerance techniques are surveyed, and dual network configuration model, cluster server configuration method are presented and tested based on the survey.

  • The traffic of tug/barges which are carrying construction materials, large plants for harbor development, or offshore structures has recently increased in the coast of Korea. The west and south coast of Korea are always congested due to a lot of islands and traffic concentration. Specially tug/barges have higher probability of marine accidents due to their bad maneuverability than others. Considering the operational circumstance and maneuverability, this study was to develop a wide-area monitoring and control system for tug/barges in the coastal area of Korea. The system was made in the form of three program modules i.e. navigation analysis program module, monitoring and control program module, database module. And seven functions were programmed to monitor and control the tug/barges efficiently. These are ship information search, tug/barge information and track management, designated area and safe navigation zone management, fairway management, accident data management, warning of danger, safety information management.

  • The exchange of goods over the sea is a situation in which the amount of trade between countries is gradually increasing. In order to maintain the optimal operating condition, the ship maintains stability and optimal operating conditions by inserting or withdrawing ballast water from the ballast tank according to the loading condition of cargo capacity is also increasing. Control valves play an important role in controlling fluid flow in these pipes. When the flow rate is controlled using a control valve, problems such as cavitation, flashing, and suffocating flow may occur due to high differential pressure, and in particular, damage to valves and pipes due to cavitation is a major problem. Therefore, in this study, the cavitation phenomenon is reduced by installing orifices at the front and rear ends of the high differential pressure control butterfly valve to reduce the sudden pressure drop at the limiting part of the butterfly valve step by step. The flow coefficient according to the shape of the orifice, the degree of cavitation occurrence, and the correlation were analyzed using a CFD(Cumputational Fluid Dynamics), and an optimal orifice design for reducing cavitation is derived.

  • Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate maritime officers' strategies to avoid the ship collision in crossing situations. Background: In a situation where there is a risk of collision between two ships, maritime officers can change the direction and speed of the own-ship to avoid the collision. They have four options to select; adjusting the speed only, the direction only, both the speed and direction at the same time and no action. Research questions were whether the strategy they are using differs according to the shipboard experience of maritime officers and the representation method of ARPA (automatic radar plotting aid) - radar graphic information. Method: Participants were 12. Six of them had more than 3 years of onboard experience, while the others were 4th grade students at Korea Maritime and Ocean University. For each participant, 32 ship encounter situations were provided with ARPA-radar information. 16 situations were presented by the north-up display and 16 situations were presented by the track-up display. Participants were asked to decide how to move the own-ship to avoid the ship collision for each case. Results: Most participants attempted to avoid the collision by adjusting the direction of the ship, representing an average of 22.4 times in 32 judgment trials (about 70%). Participants who did not have experience on board were more likely to control speed and direction at the same time than participants with onboard experience. Participants with onboard experience were more likely to control the direction of the ship only. On the other hand, although the same ARPA Information was provided to the participants, the participants in many cases made different judgments depending on the method of information representation; track-up display and north-up display. It was only 25% that the participants made the same judgment under the same collision situations. Participants with onboard experience did make the same judgment more than participants with no onboard experience. Conclusion: In marine collision situations, maritime officers tend to avoid collisions by adjusting only the direction of their ships, and this tendency is more pronounced among maritime officers with onboard experience. The effect of the method of information representation on their judgment was not significant. Application: The results of this research might help to train maritime officers for safe navigation and to design a collision avoidance support system.

  • This paper describes the improvement of power control characteristics of ship's emergency lighting power supply(SELPS), by which electric power is controlled extensively, and power ON-OFF is controlled and system parameter monitored in remote distance by PC serial communication. Proposed system is composed of step-down converter(SDC), emergency power supply circuit(EPSC), half bridge(HB) inverter, fluorescent lamp(FL) starting circuit, microprocessor control and multi communication circuit. Experimental works confirm that relative system stops when over current is detected and speedy and stable emergency power is supplied when main power source cut-off, and controls input power up to 35[$\%$] by adjusting pulse frequency of the HB inverter, and ON-OFF control of multiple SELS, real time transmission and monitor of parameters as to voltage, current, and power values are performed appropriately by PC communication.
