Ship hull is a compound curved shape and most of shipyards have been using gas heating method for the surface forming of steel plate. This traditional forming process have problems such as difficulties in heat input control and poor working conditions due to loud noise and air contamination. Recently, researches on automatic hull forming system have been conducted using high frequency induction heating method which have good control ability and favorable working environment. In this study, the induction heating simulation system for curved surface forming of steel plate was developed and induction heating experiments were performed. Based on the results of this study, efficient induction heating coil design and optimal heating conditions for the automatic hull forming system can be obtained.

Since High Tensile Steel has been widely used to thin plate on the steel structure and marine structure, It has increased possibility of buckling. Especially, initial deflection of ship structure is mainly caused by heat processing of welding or cutting etc. This initial deflection has negative effect to thin plate, which would incur a complicated nonlinear behavior accompanied with secondary buckling. If idealized initial deflection is considered in early marine structure design of secondary buckling, accuracy and reliability will be improved considerably. The measurement data of initial deflection from experiment is applied to finite element series analysis. For FEA(ANSYS), Applied nonlinear buckling analysis is used by Newton-Raphson method & Arc-length method included in this program.

The heat exchangers in the ships have been changed from the conventional shell & tube type to the plate type due to some merits as a compactness, a high thermal efficiency and a light-weight. In recent. it is reported that the vacuum phenomena were occurred in the seawater outlet piping of a main central cooler (MCC) on the ships. From the viewpoints of a common sense, the vacuum pressure in the seawater piping is rare event and difficult to be convinced because the seawater is pumped into the piping by a seawater pump with a high discharge head. However, the occurrence of a vacuum pressure in the seawater line of an MCC is real situation and often gives a severe damage to a rubber gasket of an MCC with a plate type heat transfer area. In this study, we analyzed the vacuum pressure in the seawater line of an MCC by using the simpl Bernoulli's equation and found that the vacuum pressure in the seawater line of an MCC is inevitable untill the installation postion of an MCC is not lowered.

3-D templates are produced to evaluate completeness of the shell plates during the forming process, which is an essential step for the ship production. They are mostly produced in advance during the detail/production design stage, but occasionally they are requested by the shell plate forming department, because it is impossible to predict accurately the necessities of them at the design stage. This results in a huge loss of man-hour and a bottleneck. In order to resolve this issue while reducing the dependence on other department, the process of manufacturing the 3-D templates needs to be automated. Therefore, this study proposes an automatic system that calculates the manufacturing information of the 3-D templates with only geometric information of the shell plates. The system considers the thickness and the cutting method of the parts of the 3-D templates and some options are provided to reflect the intention of the worker.

This paper focuses on the improvement of the influence coefficient matrix method for estimation of local ice load on the icebreaking research vessel ARAON. The influence coefficient matrix relates ice pressure on the hull plate to the measured/calculated hull strain/stress. Conventionally von Mises equivalent stresses representing hull stresses and ice pressure acting on the hull plate are utilized to assemble the influence coefficient matrix. Because of the three dimensional features of the ship-ice collision process, an enhanced method to assemble the influence coefficient matrix is derived considering ice loads in the X, Y, and Z direction simultaneously. Furthermore the location of ice loads acting on hull-plate may fall outside the measuring sensor area, and the enhanced influence coefficient matrix is modified to reduce the difference between the actual and the estimated ice loads by expanding the domain outward from the sensor area. The developed method for enhanced influence coefficient matrix is applied to IBRV ARAON during the 2019 Antarctic ice field test and the local ice loads in three directions are efficiently calculated compared to those by a conventional method.

A number of perforated plates are utilized for the passage of the crew and the equipment, reducing weight and the arrangement of piping. Hull girders in double bottom and floor plates are the typical parts which have those plates in a ship structure, and the perforated plate is usually positioned at the place which has less loading without local strength problems. In the case of utilizing the plate inevitably at the place which has large strength, an opening of the plate has large effect on the buckling strength due to in-plane rigidity and ultimate strength. Therefore the assessments of the elastic buckling strength and the ultimate strength for the perforated plate are the essential requirements for determining the dimensions of the parts at the initial design stage. With above reason, a need of the reasonable assessments for the elastic buckling strength and the ultimate strength has evolved. The numerical series analysis with the consideration of the effect due to various aspect ratios and slenderness ratios were performed using finite element method in this research. Simple formulas for the design are also proposed from the above analysis.

Because the tonal sound of the underwater noise in a naval vessel can be identified from the sub-marine of the enemy, it should be reduced sufficiently. This kind of the noise usually comes from the structure-borne noise of the onboard machine and transfers to the sea through the hull of the ship. The vibration at the high frequency can be reduced sufficiently with damping material. In this paper, the damping coefficient of the steel plate with damping sheet is evaluated by experiment. Using these evaluated properties, the numerical analysis is performed in order to evaluate how much vibration of the generator can be reduced applying damping sheet on the encloser and base of it.

Several roll motion reduction devices are reviewed and suggested for the application in FPSO. The firstly suggested solution is the shape of the bilge. The next is a bilge keel. The last suggestion is the ART (anti-rolling tank). Typical U-tube type ART is designed for a FPSO and examined extensively by model experiment. The model section was made of transparent acryl. Free decay test, forced oscillation test and wave test were carried out at a two-dimensional wave flume. U-tube type ART is effective only when the natural periods of ART and ship are same. Therefore, the divided U-tube type ART with split plate is suggested for the reduction of the roll motion of a FPSO over the wide range of the roll period.

FEM (Finite Element Method) is a fundamental numerical analysis technique in wide spread use in engineering application. As the solving time occupies small portion of entire FEM analysis time because of development of hardware, the relative lime to the whole analysis time to make mesh mod-els is growing. In particular, in the case of stiffeners such as features attached to plate in ship structure, the line constraints are imposed on mesh model together with other constraints such as holes. To auto-matically generate two dimensional quadrilateral mesh with the line constraints, an algorithm is pro-posed based on the constrained Delaunay triangulation and Q-Morph algorithm in which the line constraints are not considered. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated. And some numerical results of our proposed algorithm ate presented.

It is well known fact that there is a theoretical analogous relation ship in terms of differential equation between the stress distribution of a bar under pure torsional moment and the deflection of a membrane subjected to a uniform pressure. This relationship has been applied to the experimental determination of torsional stresses with troublesome and elaborative measuring procedure since Griffith's invention of the soap-film apparatus. In this paper, the soap-film was replaced by a highly polished steel plate and whole visualable deflectional contour-line-map was able to obtain by using Michelson Interferometer with Ne-He Gas Laser lignt source enabling to determine the stress distribution in the vicnity of the symmetrical inner-boundary in a section. Experimental results were satisfactory and the margin of error in the measurement was lower than 1%.
