In this study, the significant wave height and wave period of a specially designed observation system that connected two drifting buoys to an ocean data buoy was observed for 23 days from February 7 to 29, 2020, and the results were compared and analyzed. The results indicated that, in comparison to the ocean data buoy, the drifting buoy exhibited greater variability in significant wave height over shorter time intervals. The wave period of the ocean data buoy also appeared longer than that of the drifting buoy. The greater the observed significant wave height and wave period from both the ocean data and drifting buoys, the more pronounced the differences between the two observation instruments become. Moreover, the study revealed that the disparity in observation methods between the ocean data and drifting buoys did not significantly affect the significant wave height characteristics, as long as the period remained unchanged for up to half of the observation time.

태풍 및 해상 악천후에 견디며 무중단 운영, 실시간 관측할 수 있는 고급 사양의 부이식 파고 관측부이 시스템 개발 시급한 상황이다. 본 연구에서 부이식 파고관측 시스템을 국산화 개발하여 실시간 관측(풍속, 기온, 기압)를 부이에 추가하여 해양에 설치하고 해양의 자료를 실시간으로 전송하는 시스템 개발 하였다. 개발된 부이식 파고관측 시스템을 통하여 매년 해상에 투하하는 해양기상부이(표류형 파향파고계)의 수요를 충족할 것으로 기대된다.

The concentric dual-buoy Wave Energy Converter (WEC), which consists of external buoy (hallow-cylinder) with toroidal appendage and cylindrical internal buoy within the moon-pool is suggested in this research and its performance in various wave conditions is studied. The Linear Electric Generator (LEG), consisting of a permanent magnet and coils, is used as a direct Power Take-Off (PTO) system. To maximize the electrical energy extracted from the PTO system, the relative heave motions between the dual buoys must be highly amplified by the multiple resonance phenomena of dual-buoy and internal-fluid motions. The high-performance range can be widened by distributing those natural frequencies with respect to the peak frequency of the wave spectrum. The performance of the newly developed dual-buoy WEC was measured throughout the systematic 1:5.95-model test in regular and irregular waves conducted in a wave tank at Seoul National University. The model-test results are also validated by an independently developed numerical method.

In-situ experiment using ocean buoys is a direct ocean observation and has been playing an important role from the past to the present based on high reliability. The ocean buoy is operated more stable than before due to the technological development of communication (GPS, satellite, …) and equipment, but still moored buoys are not free from various accidents occurring in the ocean. Nevertheless, there is currently a lack of countermeasures or manuals about mooring accidents. Therefore, in this study, based on the experience of operating buoys conducted for many years, the advantages and disadvantages of ocean buoys according to size were analyzed. and legal procedures before and after buoy mooring were presented to enhance the use of buoys. And it is suggested to realize successful experiment by proposing considerations before mooring the buoy in preparation for an accident.

An evaluation of the structural integrity of an oceanographic buoy subjected to extreme loads was carried out in this study. Load components, such as the current, waves, and wind load, which were required for the sea's environmental conditions, were calculated precisely. A non linear finite element analysis was conducted to elucidate the structural response of the buoy under extreme environmental conditions. Based on the surface drift velocity scheme, a dynamic impact analysis was also carried out for the case of collision accidents. The proposed numerical technique would be a useful and cost effective tool for design scheme evaluation in the field of oceanographic buoys.

The state changes of ocean covered over 70% of earth surface are one of the greatest factor of weather catastrophe. Recently weather extraordinary events are followed by steep increase of sea water temperature and scientists in various fields are studying and warning the weather changes. In this paper, floating buoy is developed to monitor ocean environments via Orbcomm satellite and a method is proposed to increase measurement accuracy of sea water temperature with common low price temperature sensor. Experimental results are presented to illustrate the usability and effectiveness of the developed system. A web-based real time monitoring system is built to monitor ocean environmental information such as sea and air temperature, salinity according to the position of buoy through the internet for user convenience.

해상에 설치되는 브이는 선박의 안전항해 및 다양한 해양 데이터를 수집하기 위한 목적 등으로 운영되고 있다. 이러한 브이는 선박과의 충돌이나 해상 기상상태로 인한 브이의 피해가 자주 발생하면서 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 여러 분야에서 연구가 진행 중이다. 본 논문에서는 브이의 상태를 확인하기 위해 사용자가 사전에 정의한 데이터의 형식에 맞춰 브이의 상태를 모니터링 할 수 있게 실험을 하였다. 본 연구에서 설계한 무선 신호 처리 알고리즘을 적용한 무선 원격 제어 보드를 통하여 실험한 결과 육상에서 3분 간격으로 해상 브이에 상태를 모니터링 할 수 있다는 결과를 얻었다. 획득한 데이터의 종류는 브이가 적용되는 환경이나 목적에 따라 사전에 변경 할 수 있다. 이를 해상에 적용하기 위하여 데이터 전송 안정성을 실험하였고, 더불어 무선 통신망의 가용도에 영향을 미치는 것을 실험하였다. 전송된 데이터를 분석한 결과, 태양광, 풍력, 파력 발전에 대하여 각각 최대 50 W, 20 W, 40 W의 발전량을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과를 통하여 검증된 통신체계는 해상 브이뿐만 아니라 다른 해양구조물에도 적용 가능 할 것으로 예상된다.

Ship handling simulator should have capabilities of calculating ship motions (heave, pitch, and roll) at given sea state and displaying the calculated motions through a real-time 3D visualization system. Motion solver of a ship handling simulator generally calculates those motions in addition to position for an own ship, a main simulation target, but provides only position information for traffic ships. Therefore, it is required to simulate real-time traffic ship and buoy motions coupled with ocean waves in a ship handling simulator for the realistic visualization. In the paper, the authors propose a simple dynamics model by which ship and buoy motions are calculated with the input data of wave height and discuss a method for the implementation of a ship and buoy motions calculation module.

An ocean buoy energy farm is considered for Green energy generation and delivery to small towns along the Korean coast. The present study presents that the floating buoy-type energy farm appears to be sufficiently feasible for trapping more energy compared to affixed cylinder duck array. It is also seen from the numerical results that the resonated waves between spaced buoys are further trapped by floating buoy motion.Our numerical study is analyzed by a plane-wave approximation, in which evanescent mode effects are included in a modified mild-slope equation based on the scattering characteristics for a single buoy.
