  • This paper presents an effective damage detection method for offshore jackets using natural frequency change ratios. Two parameters, cosine similarity and magnitude index, are considered to estimate the location and severity of the damage in the structure. A numerical jacket structure model is considered to verify the performance of the proposed method. As observed through analysis, the damages in the structure are detected accurately.

  • Recently recognize the labor productivity of port physical distribution system in the port and shipping areas, Much Efforts for evaluating this productivity has been made continuously. BUt still there is little study, so far, on a systematic research for the management of port labor gangs, and even those were mainly depended on a rule of thumb. Especially the object of this study is to introduce the method of optimal allocation and assignment for the labor gangs per pier unit in the multiple ships berthed at an arbitary pier or port. In case the multiple ships have a homogeneous cargoes or do not have sufficient labor gangs to be assigned. The problem of optimal allocation and assignment of the labor gangs to be i) formalized with multi-state decision process in form of difference equation as the pattern which converted the independent multiple ships into a single ship with the intra-multiple ships, and ii) the optimal size of labor gangs could be obtained through the simple mathematical method instead of complicated dynamic programming, and iii) In case of shortage of labor gangs available the evaluation function considering the labor gangs available and total shift times was introduced, and iv) the optimal allocation and assignment of labor gangs was dealt at the point of minimizing the summation of the total shift times and at the point of minimizing the total cost charged for the extra waiting time except PHI time during port times for the multiple ships combinations.

  • This paper is mainly concerned with the assessment of safe navigation between ships moving each other in restricted waterways. The numerical simulation of manoeuvring motion was conducted parametrically to propose an appropriate safe speed and distance, which is required to avoid sea accident under the different conditions, such as ship-velocity ratios, ship-length ratios, separation and stagger between ships. As for the calculation parameters, the ratios of velocity difference between two ships were considered as 0.6, 1.2, 1.5 and the ones of ship-length difference were regarded were regarded as 0.5, 1.0, 1.18. From the inspection of this investigation, it indicates the following result. Firstly, the separation between ships is more needed for the small vessel, compared to the large vessel. Secondly, the lateral distance between ships is necessarily required for the velocity ration of 1.2, compared to the cases of 0.6 and 1.5. The manoeuvring characteristics based on this investigation will be very useful for keeping the safety of navigation from the practical point of ships design and traffic control in confined water.

  • Although a safety assessment of damaged ships, which considers environmental conditions such as waves and wind, is important in both the design and operation phases of ships, in Korea, rules or guidelines to conduct such assessments are not yet developed. However, NATO and European maritime societies have developed guidelines for a safety assessment. Therefore, it is required to develop rules or guidelines for safety assessments such as the Naval Ship Code (NSC) of NATO. Before the safety assessment of a damaged ship can be performed, the available damage scenarios must be developed and the safety assessment criteria must be established. In this paper, the parameters related to damage by accidents are identified and categorized when developing damage scenarios. The need for damage safety assessment criteria is discussed, and an example is presented. In addition, a concept and specifications for the DB-based supporting system, which is used in the operation phases, are proposed.

  • Marine ships have played an important role as a carrier, transporting much more than 80% of all international trading, and marine transportation is an internationally competitive, strategic, and great national important industry. However, those marine ships have the characteristics such as voyage of long distance, large-volume and lower speed than the other carry system. Therefore, it is important to manufacture a larger and faster ship, however, the steel plates which are consisted with most of those ships has brought about many corrosion problems in sea water such as general corrosion, localized corrosion, cavitation and erosion corrosion etc.. Most hulls of the ships have been protected with paintings, sacrificial anode, marine growth prevention system, and impressed current cathodic protection methods against numerious corrosion problems mentioned above. However, these conventional methods are not very effective because the rudder of ships stern are exposed to very severe corrosive environment such as tides, speeds of ships, cavitations and erosion corrosion, etc.. In this study, electrochemical and cavitation characteristics was investigated for the rudder material of ship which is exposed to serious corrosive environment. As a result, it is considered that the optimum cathodic protection potentials of rudder material is the range of -0.6 V ~ -0.8 V(Ag/AgCl) in static seawater.

  • In this study, many researches have been carried out against Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator(EEOI) of existing ships under discussion by IMO. This research is examined the method for the polices about IMO's greenhouse gas reducing emissions among them, we were analyzed the EEOI for existing ships. we have analyzed the result about applying EEOI using the calculation method of the rate of fuel consumption for cargo quantities to the actual existing ships and raised the problem. Based on this research, we were presented the improved EEOI about the engine load using fuel consumption and applied the existing ships. As a result, we concluded that the improved EEOI can define a resonable rate of $CO_2$ emissions.

  • 본 논문에서는 수중 초음파 통신용 QPSK 버스트 수신기를 DSP시스템을 이용하여 구현하기위한 시스템 설계에 대하여 논한다. 본 논문에서 고려하는 시스템은 25kHz의 반송주파수를 사용하고, 심벌율은 5kHz이며, 데이터 전송율은 10,000bps이다. 송신기에서 심벌정보를 전송하기 위해 펄스성형필터를 거친 신호를 디지털 믹서기를 이용하여 디지털 영역에서 반송주파수 대역으로 신호를 변조한 후 200kHz로 샘플링하는 D/A변환기를 이용하여 전송 아날로그 신호를 생성한다. 수신기에서는 수신 신호를 디지털로 처리하기 위하여 100kHz로 free running하는 A/D 변환기를 이용하여 수신 데이터를 얻는다. 수신기에서는 32심벌 길이의 프리앰블을 이용하여 프레임 동기를 찾음과 동시에 개략적인 심벌시간 동기와 위상편이를 추정한다. 추정한 위상편이값은 2차 PLL (phase-looked loop)의 초기값으로 사용하여 위상 추적을 수행하는 전송 시스템이다. 또한, 된 논문에서는 실해역 전송 시험 테이터를 통하여 조류의 변화에 의해 발생하는 Doppler 편이를 보상하기 위하여 PLL이 필수적으로 필요함을 보인다.

  • This paper presents data from performance tests carried out to assess a manganese nodule crusher. Manganese nodules should be crushed into smaller pieces in order to assure the slurry flow of the lifting system. Both artificial nodules and real manganese nodules are used to evaluate nodule breaking ability of the crusher. The crushing performance of the crusher depends on the flow rate and pressure of the power transmission device. The size of the crushed manganese nodules also depends on the shape of the crushing drum. In this paper, several comparative tests are carried out to evaluate and improve the crushing performance and find the optimal design point of the crusher.
