In this paper, we developed the Realtime Ship Position Information System and the software in relation to the system, which consists of the on-board system and the shore-based system. The on-board system is composed a GPS receiver, a computer, and a modem. The shore-based system is composed of a telephone, a modem and a computer. Both systems are operated by the data communication program The system displays automatically the ship's movement on the digital chart by using the ship's position acquired by a GPS receiver via INMARSAT-A communication system. The results presented in many experiments indicate that the system in processing the position data well during the transmission and reception.

Ship's position data obtaining method is one of the very important factor in navigation. Nowadays, GPS(Global Positioning System) using the earth orbiting satellites are equipped and operated for the position finding. Because it provides more precise position information than other equipments and is very convenient for navigator. In this study, it is designed to develop the GPS simulator for everybody being able to practise the GPS operating skill like as navigation planning, navigation calculating etc. And also, it can be operated with personal computer without real GPS receiver. This simulation system is based on the real GPS receiver and built by the visual basic 5.0 program. And it displays the ship's position and navigating information and plots the ship's moving track on the screen in real time according as initial setup data-main engine's rpm, rudder angle, departure position and waypoint.

Since it is very important for an ocean-going vessel to transmit information quickly and accurately to her owner or charterer not only for the ship's safety but for economic operation of the ship, some newly-built automated vessels equipped with automatic information transmission system which consists of INMARSAT-C and specially-designed computer. This system, however, is not applicable to the existing vessel without chaging her equipments and, furthermore, is too expensive for small shipping companies to fit out such a system on their vessels. Therefore, we propose a low-priced information transmission system which consists of a personal computer and communication equipments in the existing vessel, and in this paper, as the groundwork of the proposed system, we have made up the ship's position transmission system which is composed of and IBM AT-compatible, PC, INMARSAT-A and a GPS receiver. As the test result of the system through sea trial on the training ship 'HANBADA', we confirmed that transmission of the ship's position was achieved succesfully and consequently there could be high possibility of cost-effectiveness of the proposed system.

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem for ship berthing by using sliding mode technique. With significant potential advantages: insensitivity to plant nonlinearities, parameter variations, remarkable stability and robust performance with environmental disturbances, the multivariable sliding modes controller is proposed for solving trajectory tracking of ship in harbor area. In this study, the ship position and heading angle are simultaneously tracked to guarantees that the ship follows a given path (geometric task) with desired velocities (dynamic task). The stability of the proposed control law is proved based on Lyapunov theory. The proposed approach has been simulated on a computer model of a supply vessel with good results.

For the mechanism of ship capsizing, we can generally consider that it\`s caused due to pure loss of stability, parametric oscillation(low cycle resonance) of ship in waves and the broaching phenomena. Among them, low cycle resonance occurs due to the dynamic change of righting arm with respect to the relative position of ship to waves. The dynamic change depends on the encounter period of a ship in following waves. This paper discusses the following items : (1) An analytical expression of GZ curve varying with respect to the relative position of ship to waves, (2) Non-linear equation of motion describing low cycle resonance, (3) The effects of righting arm, stability range and encounter period on low cycle resonance.

This paper presents an improvement for calculating method of astronomical vessel position with circle of equal altitude equation based on using a virtual object in sun and two stars observation. In addition, to enhance the accuracy of ship position achieved from solving linear matrix system, and surmount the disadvantages on rank deficient matrices situation, the authors used singular value decomposition (SVD) in least square method instead of normal equation and QR decomposition, so, the solution of matrix system will be available in all situation. As proposal algorithm, astronomical ship position will give more accuracy than previous methods.

Nowadays we needs the ship design ability strongly for our shipbuilding industry to attain the 2nd position among the competitive world marine industries. But we have short experience in ship design, so several ship design terminologies are used without clear understandings. Here, papers on ship design procedure and design methodology are summarized with some investigation about our present status. In addition, the state arts and new developments of Computer Aided ship Design in advanced ship building countries are treated. It is hoped that we-ship designers of our country-do have common understandings about the ship design terminologies.

This paper presents some experimental results about Position Mooring (PM) system applied to the barge ship. In PM operation, the station keeping in surge, sway of vessel is provided by the mooring system. In this paper, a system, consisting of a barge vessel and mooring lines, is mathematically modeled. The position and orientation of vessel is controlled by changing the tensions in the mooring lines. The PID control strategy is applied to evaluate the efficiency of proposed system. Experimental result which corresponds to the applied control strategy is presented and discussed.
