For coastal service ships, the water depth is a very important parameter in the design stage of the hull form that has an influence on the restriction of the speed and draft of ships. In this study, the water depth is important for ship design. In this research, the change of total resistance, trim and sinkage due to the variation of water depth are measured by using on equipment for shallow water condition. For the basic research step about the shallow water effect, the effects on Series60($C_B=0.6$) hull form are experimented. To compare with existing experiment results, the test conditions are same with those. The water depth conditions are 10, 15, 20, 25% of LPP of the model ship, respectively.

This paper describes an approach for the numerical analysis of container ship slamming and whipping and various parameters that influence slamming and whipping. For validation purposes, the numerical analysis results were compared with experimental results obtained as part of the Wave-Induced Loads on Ships Joint Industry Project. Water entry problems for two-dimensional (2D) sections were first solved using a 2D generalized Wagner model (GWM) for various drop conditions and geometries. As the next step, the hydroelastic numerical analysis of a 10,000-TEU container ship subjected to slamming and whipping loads in waves was performed. The analysis method used is based on a fully coupled model consisting of a three-dimensional (3D) Rankine panel model, a 3D finite element model (FEM), and a 2D GWM, which are strongly coupled in the time domain. Parametric studies were carried out in both numerical and experimental tests with various forward speeds, wave heights, and wave periods. The trends observed and the validity of the numerical analysis results are discussed.

At the present, ship traffic monitoring and management are focused on the harbor area and the specified coastal zone in South Korea. It, however, is required that the Jurisdictional Sea Area of South Korea is monitored from two viewpoints: Safety and Security. Through a safe sea line (transport route) over the world, it is possible to expand our ocean economical territory. As a first step, we have been in field campaigns for integrated ship monitoring on the Ieodo Ocean Research Station in November 2013 after the first test in Gyunggi Bay.

The prediction of stress intensity factor(SIF) is one of the most important factors to analyse the propagation behavior of cracks in hull structural members. Up to now, however, simplified prediction method of SIF has not yet been established for the cracks experienced in large complex structures. As a first step to predict crack propagation behavior in a ship structure with very large structural redundancies, simplified SIF prediction formulas for various crack shapes were derived based on the results of the stress analysis under a non-crack condition in this study. The adequacy of the proposed method was then verified in comparison with other experimental and analysis results.

Unsteady nonlinear wave motions on the free surface over a plane beach of constant slope are numerically simulated using a finite difference method in rectangular grid system. Two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and the continuity equation are used for the computations. Irregular leg lengths and stars are employed near the boundaries of body and free surface to satisfy the boundary conditions. Also, the free surface which consists of markers or segments is determined every time step with the satisfaction of kinematic and dynamic free surface conditions. Moreover, marker-density method is also adopted to allow plunging jets impinging on the free surface. The second-order Stokes wave theory is employed for the generation of waves on the inflow boundary. For the simulation of wave breaking phenomena, the computations are carried out with the plane beach of constant slope in surf zone. The results are compared with other existing experimental results. Agreement between the experimental data and the computation results is good.

The collisions of vessel at sea show high among the whole marine accidents. Especially, the accidents of fishing vessels take the largest portion of the collisions. Therefore, a technique to reduce these accidents should be developed. The automatic control for avoiding collision suggested in this study consists of two steps. The first is recognizing collision risk with fuzzy Theory and the other is maneuvering the model ship on the basis of collision risk calculated from the first step. The information form the position and estimated time of collision point(DCPA and TCPA) is used to assess the collision risk. To verify this system, a fishing vessel was simulated according to MMG mathematical model. The simulations result shows quite good application in avoiding the collision of ship.

The economy of ship's size and speed is affected by the freight rates, sailing distances, cargo handling rates, fuel oil prices and even interest rates of the borrowed funds. It can be a step more powerful measures if the economic evaluation model takes in a cargo lot size which prevails in the shipping markets. This paper has dealt with hypothetical cargo lots which happen to the market with uniform distribution in probability. The evaluation models are either profit maximization method or cost minimization method. The former compares among different voyages in profitability to the invested funds, the later defines the transportation efficiency in ton-mile unit and be used in comparing two or more transportation means. This paper adopted both of above methods to derive out ships economical evaluation contours for the various ship's speed and deadweight for certain cargo lot sizes, which can be used as important managerial decision data in purchasing ships or selecting a most profitable one among the proposed voyages. This evaluation contours will also be efficiently used in appraising so called "handy size ships" in connection with port water depth and conditions of voyage tracks.ge tracks.

To design the modified hull form with relatively unfavorable dimensions and constraints than the parent ship the stepwise design was applied. In each design step the resistance characteristics was estimated by numerical calculations using CFD programs as Wavis 1.4, Wavis 2.1 and Fluent 12.1. The wave profiles along hull surface by potential flow calculations were investigated to improve wave resistance by modifying the bow shapes. To improve the stern shapes with a point of viscous form resistance the pressure distributions on hull surface and the limiting streamlines are investigated by viscous flow calculations. The design objectives such as shortening the LBP, enlarging the propeller tip clearance, moving forward of the LCB location and increasing the displacement were applied by stepwise to develop the new hull form of DWT 75,000 product oil carrier. Finally a new hull form was developed without the resistance performance loss compared with the parent ship.

Unlike land-based nuclear power plants, a marine or floating reactor is affected by external forces due to ocean conditions. These external forces can cause additional accelerations and affect each system and equipment of the marine reactor. Therefore, in designing a marine reactor and evaluating its performance and stability, a thermal hydraulic safety analysis code is necessary to consider the thermal hydrodynamic effects of ship motion. MARS, which is a reactor system analysis code, includes a dynamic motion model that can simulate the thermal-hydraulic phenomena under three-dimensional motion by calculating the body force term included in the momentum equation. In this study, it was verified that the dynamic motion model can simulate fluid motion with reasonable accuracy using conceptual problems. In addition, two modifications were made to the dynamic motion model; first, a user-supplied table to simulate a realistic ship motion was implemented, and second, the flow regime map determination algorithm was improved by calculating the volume inclination information at every time step if the dynamic motion model was activated. With these modifications, MARS could simulate the thermal-hydraulic phenomena under ocean motion more realistically.

In the paper, a dual-bandpass filter for ship's wireless LAN has proposed, which was designed by using step stub in compliance with 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz band The dual-bandpass filter can be designed by adjusting the sizes of the step stub in compliance with the frequency bands of 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz, which has the improved performance compared with the existing dual-bandpass filter. Furthermore, dual-bandpass filter using step stub has better efficiency. The measured results for the fabricated dual-bandpass filters agreed well with the simulated ones, and hence it was confirmed that the proposed design method is valid.
