  • The present study suggests a procedure of establishing a ship dynamics modeling by regression of free-running model test results. The hydrodynamic force and moment of the whole model ship is derived from the low-pass filtered acceleration in the turning circle and zigzag maneuver tests. Force and moment of the propeller and rudder are separated from that of the whole ship to acquire the hull force and moment terms, based on the principles of the component model. The low-pass filter frequency is verified in prior to dynamics modeling, to find the threshold frequency of 2.5 Hz. The dynamics modeling of the hull is compared with the component modeling by captive model tests. Because of strong correlation between sway velocity, yaw angular velocity, and heel angle, each maneuvering coefficient is not able to be validated, but the whole modeling shows good agreement with the captive model tests.

  • This study performed an OpenFOAM-based numerical modeling for simulating performance of wave reduction by a floating vertical plate. Based on the Waves2FOAM library, an internal wave generation and energy dissipation with sponge layers schemes were further implemented. The performance of wave generation and dissipation was first tested with a simple two-dimensional analysis. Then, numerical simulation was carried out with the experimental data of Briggs et al. (2001) for the two regular wave cases. In general, the modeling results agreed well with the experimental data, showing better agreement than the numerical analysis by WAMIT that is included in Briggs et al. (2001).

  • The optimal type and discharging position of ocean outfall of wastewater have been determined by hydrodynamic modeling, near-field dilution modeling, and far-field dispersion modeling. Tide and tidal currents have been simulated by a finite element hydrodynamic model showing good agreements with field observations. Based on the hydrodynamic simulation results candidates of ocean outfall position were preliminary determined. Submerged single port and submerged multi-port diffuser were selected as discharging system alternatives and finally designed by considering tide, tidal currents and water depth. Initial dilution of wastewater discharged from the designed ports has been estimated by CORMIX system. A 2-dimensional random-walk dispersion model has been employed to simulate far-field dispersion of discharged wastewater.

  • A preliminary design approach for superyachts is introduced. The state-of-the-arts of superyachts is investigated and their characteristics are indirectly examined by analyzing the data collected from built vessels. The analysis of data provides a guideline for the establishment of an preliminary hull form of a superyacht. The rules and regulations governing the design and construction of superyachts are collected and considered. A modeling approach for prompt and efficient design is also introduced. A sample hull form of a selected superyacht is constructed using commercial design packages not only to produce a hull form but to analyze the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic performances of the constructed vessel. Various visualization techniques are considered as an efficient tool for design verification.

  • A model is developed for the calculation of sea surface generated ambient noise in the range dependent ocean environment. The sources are located in the horizontal plane all around and their depths are at the near-surface. The receiver array is located in the range dependent ocean waveguide. One-way coupled mode method is used to model the acoustic propagation between the sources and receiver in the range dependent waveguide, and the cross spectral density matrix of noise is derived. In simulation, noise intensity, beamforming result and coherence function are calculated from the cross spectral density matrix. These results are compared with those in the range independent environment. The modeling result shows the effect of the vertical directionality and asymmetry characteristics of the horizontal plane.

  • In this paper, we propose a continuum mechanics based 3-D beam finite element with cross-sectional discretization allowing for warping displacements. The beam element is directly derived from the assemblage of 3-D solid elements, and this approach results in inherently advanced modeling capabilities of the beam element. In the beam formulation, warping is fully coupled with bending, shearing, and stretching. Consequently, the proposed beam elements can consider free and constrained warping conditions, eccentricities, curved geometries, varying sections, as well as arbitrary cross-sections (including thin/thick-walled, open/closed, and single/multi-cell cross-sections). We then study the modeling and predictive capabilities of the beam elements in twisting beam problems according to geometries, boundary conditions, and cross-sectional meshes. The results are compared with reference solutions obtained by analytical methods and solid and shell finite element models. Excellent modeling capabilities and solution accuracy of the proposed beam element are observed.

  • The present piping modeling method requires detailed inputs from a designer to generate a piping model, and thus it takes much time for the designer to perform such task. Moreover, the piping model has no relation with that of hull structure. Thus, it is time-consuming and requires much effort if design changes arise. In this study, a method that generates quickly many pipes using a pipe tray and a conversion method that converts automatically the pipes into objects related with the hull structure are proposed. A piping modeling system based on the proposed methods is developed. The applicability of the developed system is demonstrated by applying it to the generation of the piping model of a deadweight 300,000ton VLCC(Very Large Crude oil Carrier). The results show that the developed system can quickly generate the piping model in relation with the hull structure.

  • This paper describes the initial hull form design process which generate a hull form using a neurofuzzy modeling. Neurofuzzy system is to combine the merits of fuzzy inference system and neural networks. Therefore it has structured knowledge representations as well as adaptive capacities. Initial hull form design stage is the process which generate an adoptable hull form from the limited design information and multi-decidions condidering correlations with design factors. It can be assidted efficiently by neurofuzzy system. This paper suggests two methods of an initial hull form generation using the neurofuzzy modeling and B-spline theory. and examines the usefulness of suggested method through its application examples.
