The ship STEP is an international standard for the computer-interpretable representation of ship product information and for the exchange of ship product model data. The ship STEP consists of several APs(Application Protocol), such as AP215(ship arrangement), AP216(ship moulded form), AP218(ship structures), AP226(ship mechanical systems), and AP234(operating logs, records, message). The STEP AP216(ISO 10303) are an application protocol for the exchange of ship arrangement and ship moulded forms. The AP216 specifies the geometric shape and the hydrostatic properties of the ship moulded form. This paper introduces the state-of-the-art of ship STEP AP216 and develops the test case for the validation of data structure of AP216.

The present paper describes a general procedure of the structural safety assessment for the independent type C tank of LNG bunkering ship. This strength assessment procedure consists of two main scheme, global Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model primarily for hull structure assessment and detailed LNG Tank structures FEA model including the cylindrical tank itself and saddle-support structures. Two kinds of mechanism are used, fixed and slides constraints in fore and rear of the saddle-support structures that result in a variation of the reaction forces. Finite Element (FE) analyses have been performed and verified by the strength acceptance criteria to evaluate the safety adequacy of yielding and buckling of the hull and supporting structures. The detail of FE model for an LNG type C tank and its saddle supports was made, which includes the structural members such as cylindrical tank shell, ring stiffeners, swash bulkhead, and saddle supports. Subsequently, the FE buckling analysis of the Type C tank has been performed under external pressure following International Gas Containment (IGC) code requirements. Meanwhile, the assessment is also performed for yielding and buckling strength evaluation of the cylindrical LNG tank according to the PD 5500 unfired fusion welded pressure vessels code. Finally, a complete procedure for assessing the structural strength of 500 CBM LNG cargo tank, saddle support and hull structures have been provided.

The present study deals with the hydroelastic vibration analysis of structures in contact with fluid via coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) embedded with a finite element method (FEM) such that a structure displacement formulation is coupled with a fluid pressure-displacement formulation. For the preliminary study and validation of FEM based coupled FSI analysis, hydroelastic vibration characteristics of a rectangular plate in contact with fluid are first compared with the elastic vibration in terms of boundary condition and mode frequency. Numerical results from coupled FSI analysis have been shown to be rational and accurate, compared to energy method based theoretical solutions and experimental results. The effect of free surface on the vibration mode is numerically studied by changing the submerged depth of a rectangular plate. As a practical application, the hull structural vibration of 4,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) container ship is considered. Hydroelastic results of the ship hull structure are compared with those obtained from the elastic condition.

In recent years robotics has become an important resource in engineering. Adoption of Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS) in activities related to ship inspections has obvious potential advantages, but also arises particular challenges, both from technical and legal viewpoints. The ROBINS project (ROBotics technology for INspection of Ships) is a collaborative project co-funded within the H2020 EU Research and Innovation programme call, aimed at filling the gap between current ship inspections approach and available robotic technology, both from technological and regulatory point of view. Main goal of the present work is to highlight how ship inspections are currently carried out by humans, how they could be improved using RAS, even if not completely autonomous for the time being, at least in selected operational scenarios and how the performances of RAS platforms can be tested to assess their effectiveness in carrying out surveys onboard. In such a framework, a testing facility aimed at assessing RAS' capabilities as well as providing suitable environment for their development has been built and it is still under development along with dedicated testing protocols, able to assess the equivalence between human and RAS inspection of ship and marine structures. The features of a testing facility where RAS can be tested and the testing protocols are presented, showing how technological and regulatory gaps are filled.

증강현실은 가상현실과 달리 현실 세계를 바탕으로 가상정보를 제공함으로, 보다 향상된 현실감과 상호작용을 가능케 하는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰이나 테블릿 PC에서 선박 3D 모델을 시각화하는 증강현실 기반의 선박설계 시각화 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 Contour 기법으로 모서리점을 추출하고, Harris의 코너점 검출기로 대표 특징점을 추출하여 설계도면 데이터베이스를 구축한다. SURF 알고리즘을 이용하여 카메라로부터 입력받은 설계도면 영상에서 대표 특징점들을 추출하여 서버에 저장된 설계도면 DB의 특징점과 설계도면을 매칭하여 인식한다. 인식된 설계도면은 모바일 기기에서 3D 선박 구조물을 증강하여 시각화한다. 기존의 2D로 이루어지는 영업설계에 비해 선박의 이해가 용이하며 설계기간을 단축시키는 효과로 영업경쟁력이 향상될 것으로 기대된다.

선박 구조물의 구조설계 과정에서 구조물의 파괴가 일어나지 않도록 구조물의 안전도를 가능한한 높힌다는 것은 다른 무엇보다 중요하다. 또한 선체구조물의 안전도를 높히는데 있어, 선체구조 강도의 문제는 직접적인 관련이 있는데, 최근에는 종전에 해오던 규정에 의거한 경험적인 방법을 지양하고, 보다 합리적인 역학의 기본원리를 이용하는 직접계산법이 많이 시도되고 있다. 특히 안전계수를 바탕으로 하는 종전의 구조설계 방법에서는 선체에 작용하는 외력과 선체구조물의 최종강도가 갖고 있는 불확실성(uncertainty)을 충분히 고려하지 못한 공칭값(norminal value)을 사용하는 관계로 충분한 경험을 바탕으로 적용될 경우에 한해, 구조물의 안전성을 간접적으로 검토하게 되어, 최근 그 타당성 여부가 거론되고 있는 실정이다. 선체구조물의 안전성을 효율적으로 다루기 위해선, 첫째 하중해석, 둘째 거동해석, 셋째 안전도 해석의 세 단계가 거의 동등하게 다루어져야 하는데, 주로 파랑하중을 취급하는 첫째 단계와 유한요소법을 이용하는 둘째 단계가 거의 집중적으로 연구되어 왔다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 체계적인 신뢰도 해석 방법을 선박구조물에 적용하기 위해 우선 각종의 기본적인 신뢰도 해석 기법을 비교검토하여, 가장 효율적인 Advanced Level 2 방법을 정립하여, 선체구조 설계과정에서 중요한 선체 상갑판의 신뢰성 문제를 종전의 해석방법과 비교하여 그 유효성을 증명하였다.

A very large shell-structure built in shipyards like ship hulls or offshore structures are joined by welding through full process. As the welding contains a high thermal cycle at a local area, the welded structures should be distorted unavoidably. Because a distorted ship block should be revised to the designed value before the next stage, the ability to predict and to control the weld distortion is an accuracy level of the yard itself. Despite the ship block size, several present thermal distortion methodologies can deal those sizes, but it is a different story to deal full ship size model. Even a fully constructed ship hull not remaining any welding can have an accuracy issue like outfitting installation problems. Any present thermal distortion methodology cannot accept this size for its recommended element size and the number. The ordinary welding breadth at erection stage is about 20~40 mm. It can hardly be a good choice to make finite element model of these sizes considering human effort and computational environment. The finite element model for structure analysis of a ship hull is prepared at front-end engineering design stage which is the first process of the project. The element size of the model is as fine as the longitudinal space, and it is not proper to obtain a weld distortion at the erection stage. In this study, a methodology is suggested that a weldment can be shrunk at original place instead of using structural finite element model. We cut the original shell elements at erection weld-line and put truss elements between the edges of cut elements for weld shrinkage. Additional truss elements are used to facsimile transverse weld shrinkage which cannot be from the weld-line truss element shrink. They attach to weld-line truss element like twigs from barks. The capacity of developed elements is verified through an accuracy check of erection process of a container vessel at the apt. hull. It can be a useful tool for verifying a centering accuracy after renew and for block-separating planning considering accuracy.

Habitability is one of the most important points when a passenger ship is cruising. In particular, anti-vibration design should be considered preferentially to offer passenger a comfort cabin and leisure space. But, a passenger ship is different from a general commercial ship in the view point of the structural arrangement. It is restricted within narrow limits to reinforce wide panels and local structures of a passenger ship because of its interior design. Moreover, the allowable vibratory limits for a passenger ship are much lower than those of a commercial ship. In this study are introduced the procedure of the vibration analysis, the structural improvement method for prevention of vibration and the results of vibration measurement during exciter test and sea trials.

Through the recent accident, the checking of ultimate hull girder capacity for container ship should be needed. Smith’s method is well known as the only simplified method to access rapidly for ultimate hull girder capacity except very expensive nonlinear F.E approach. This simplified method, however, is admitted to apply only to bulker and tanker in accordance with Classification Rules up to now. The targets of this study are to verify effectiveness of the simplified method for container ship’s ultimate hull girder strength and to propose the safety factor considering the local bending in double bottom structures due to out of plane loads through the nonlinear F.E analyses. Two different sized ships and three loading conditions which are pure bending, homo-loading and one-bay empty condition were used for this study. Based on the F.E results, the present study showed that CSR’s simplified method is available for the ultimate hull girder strength of container ship and over 1.2 of safety factor should be applied to consider the local bending effect in double bottom structures due to out of plane loads such as sea pressure an cargo.

In this paper, the motion responses with hydrodynamic interaction effect between two off-shore floating structures in various heading waves are studied by using a linearized three-dimensional potential theory. Numerical calculations using three-dimensional pulsating source distribution techniques have been carried out for twelve coupled linear motion responses and relative motions of the barge and the ship in oblique waves. The computational results give a good correlation with the experimental results and also with other numerical results. As a result, the present computational tool can be used effectively to predict the motion responses of multiple offshore floating structures in waves.
