A cutting machine for freeform hull surfaces of ship models is developed and a servo system is employed for tool path control. The servo system consists of BLDC(Blushless DC) motor, control driver and host controller. Also PI controller is applied for precision processing. GUI(Graphic User Interface) was realized by visual c++ for the convenience of users. Free form surfaces are formed by the cutting machine developed in the Ocean Engineering Wide Tank of the University of Ulsan.

The mathematical model used in the simulation of ship's maneuvering contains the hydrodynamic coefficients, which are usually evaluated based on PMM model tests in the towing tank and used to predict ship's maneuvering performance when applied to the proto-type ship. The proper mathematical model has to be developed to predict ship's maneuvering motions with hydrodynamic coefficients very well. The mathematical model for PMM model tests is analyzed with identification program and the hydrodynamic coefficients and maneuvering motions by system identification we compared with those obtained directly from PMM model tests and sea trial. The mathematical model for PMM model tests was established and the magnitudes of ship's maneuvering coefficients were determined. When the identified values of coefficients were used to simulate the maneuvers, a very good agreement was obtained between the numerically simulated motion responses and those obtained from PMM model tests.

An adaptive algorithm was applied to forecast daily stream flows in real time using rainfall data. A three-component tank model was selected to simulate the flows and its time-variant parameters were self-calibrated with updated data using a parameter optimization scheme, golden section search method. The resulting adaptive model, APTANK, was applied to six watersheds, ranging from 0.47 to 33.62 km$^2$ size and the simulated daily streamflows were compared with the measured. The simulation results were in good agreement with the field data. APTANK is found to be applied to real-time flow simulation purposes such as a tool for irrigation water resources management and operations. The model is particularly good to simulate streamflows on dry days as compared to wet days having runoff-induced precipitation.

The pressure field for the Pekeris model which is consisted of a surface layer of fresh water overlying a thick (essentially semi-infinite) bottom layer of coarse sand is investigated experimentally in a anechoic tank scaled down 1/1,000. The water depth and frequency have been controlled so that the continuous mode integrand has not a resonance close to cut-off, and the experimental results relatively well agree with the theory which is represented as the sum of the discrete modes over a range about 10 times the water depth.

In this paper, one of the harbour manoeuvring tests is described. its goal is to investigate the so-called crabbing performance of ships. By crabbing is meant the ability of the vessel to move sideways with the use of her own manoeuvring devices like propellers, rudders, transverse thruster, etc. The crabbing model tests were carried out in the Ocean Engineering Wide Tank, University of Ulsan(UOU) to measure the transverse forces and yawing moments by the transverse thruster alone and the propeller-rudder arrangement in combination with the bow thruster. The comparison between UOU crabbing test results and data measured at one of foreign research institutes showed a little gap due to different rotating conditions of controllable pitch propellers.

In this paper. the development of a pusher-barge hull form which enables the continuous transportation along the coast and canal is performed. For the design stage of the hull forms. these are developed for Kyungin canal which is will be drawn up as the next contribution project of the Korean government are adopted. The model tests for the designed ship are carried out in the Inha University Towing Tank and the numerical simulations are done with a finite difference method based on MAC scheme. At first, the experiments are performed with designed model ships from low speed to high speed including service speed(6knots) among the corresponding designed speed. Resistance characteristics of designed ships are compared with experimental results of other several pusher-barge hull shapes. Next, the numerical simulations are performed for three cases, that is pusher only, barge only and pusher-barge condition in the designed speed. Each calculations are carried out in deep and restricted water condition. The flow characteristics around hulls in the latter condition are compared with those in the former condition.

A curvilinear non-hydrostatic free surface model is developed to investigate nonlinear wave interactions in a circular channel. The proposed model solves the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations in a three-dimensional domain with a pressure correction method, which is one of fractional step methods. A hybrid staggered-grid layout in the vertical direction is implemented, which renders relatively simple resulting pressure equation as well as free surface closure. Numerical accuracy with respect to wave nonlinearity is tested against the fifth-order Stokes solution in a two-dimensional numerical wave tank. Numerical applications center on the evolution of nonlinear waves including diffraction and reflection affected by the curvature of side wall in a circular channel comparing with linear waves. Except for a highly nonlinear bichrmatic wave, the model's results are in good agreement with superimposed analytical solution that neglects nonlinear effects. Through the numerical simulation of the highly nonlinear bichramatic wave, the model shows its capability to investigate the evolution of nonlinear wave groups in a circular channel.

최근 기후변화로 인한 가뭄, 홍수 등의 기상재해 발생빈도가 증가함에 따라 저수지의 용수공급 안정성이 감소하고 있다. 우리나라 농업용수는 총 수자원 이용량의 48%를 차지하고 있으며 영농활동의 필수 자원으로 농업용 저수지의 용수공급에 크게 의존하고 있다. 하지만 유효저수용량을 기준으로 다목적댐과 비교하였을 때 농업용 저수지의 규모가 작으므로 가뭄이 발생하게 된다면 용수공급에 큰 어려움을 겪을 수 있다. 또한 농업용 저수지의 절반 이상이 준공년도가 70년 이상으로 농업용 저수지의 노후화가 심각한 상태이며 수문 실측자료가 부족하여 이수 측면의 활용성과 관련된 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 이에 따라 농업용 저수지의 안정적인 용수공급 및 이수 측면의 분석을 위해서는 농업용 저수지 상류의 정확도 높은 장기유출량 산정이 선행되어야 한다. 현재 농업용 저수지의 장기유출량 산정을 위해 사용되고 있는 DIROM 모형은 Sugawara의 TANK 모형을 우리나라 농업용 저수지의 유역 특성에 맞게 수정한 일별 유입량 모의 발생 모형이다. 그러나 DIROM 모형의 매개변수는 1980년대에 개발된 이후 현재까지 특별한 개선없이 사용되고 있다. 따라서 최근 우리나라의 기후 및 토지이용 특성이 변화함에 따라 유출 특성이 변화하였기 때문에 장기유출량 산정을 위한 매개변수 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 최상류에 위치한 수위 관측소의 유출량 자료를 활용하여 지역별 DIROM 모형의 매개변수를 추정하고, 추정된 매개변수를 활용하여 회귀식을 개발하고자 하였다. 개발된 회귀식의 검증을 위해 최근 수문자료 관측을 수행하기 시작한 농업용 저수지의 실측 수문자료를 활용하였다. 이를 통해 농업용 저수지의 안정적인 용수공급 및 저수지 관리를 통해 농업용수의 활용성을 개선할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

The experimental study for the performances of 100 kW marine current turbines (Horizontal Axis Turbine) has been conducted with three cases of 700 mm diameter model in PNU 100 m towing tank. Three cases of impeller have been designed according to the variation of section configuration and tip shape. The model tests have been carried out at different speed of revolution to find out the scale effect (Reynolds number effect). The designed rake impeller was the best among them in the efficiency point of view especially at high Tip Speed Ratio (TSR). The present study is expected to be extended to conduct at high reynolds number as well as the computational study for the validation.
