  • The manufacturing output of our country's marine equipment industry has enlarged due to the rapid growth of the shipbuilding industry in our country since the 1990's. But recently, the relative newcomers, BRICs, Vietnam and Turkey promote the shipbuilding industry with the government supports, but these countries will be the huge market in the marine equipments. So that, the marine equipment companies of our country should strengthen the international competitiveness, specially with the reinforcement of overseas marketing and after service. Korea Marine Equipment Association(KOMEA) established the Global Support Center in Busan to strengthen overseas marketing and technical A/S. In this paper, the more effective global A/S system and business model for marine equipment industry are suggested including the strategic action plan, considering the demands of customer and the mechanism of A/S in marine equipments.

  • Generally, strength degradation is caused by the absorption of moisture in composites. For this reason, a fracture is generated in the composites and traces of glass fiber degrade human health and physical damage is generated. Therefore, in this research, we studied the mechanical properties change of composites by moistureabsorption. The composites were manufactured with and without the Gel-coating process and were immersed in a moisture absorption device at $80^{\circ}C$ for more than 100 days. The mechanical properties of the moistureabsorption composites and the composites which dry after moisture-absorption were compared. The mechanical properties degradation of basalt fiber composites according to the result of the measurement of moistureabsorption was smaller than that of glass fiber composites by about 20%. In addition, the coefficient of moisture absorption was lower for the case of Gel-coating processing than the composites without the Gel-coating process by about 2% and it was deduced that Gel-coating did not have a significant effect on the mechanical properties.
