A numerical model analysis was performed to analyze the stability of the mooring lines of an automatic submersible fish cage system in waves and currents. The fish cage system consisted of a 12-angled rigid frame, net cage, cover net, 12 upper floats, 12 tanks(for fixed and variable ballast), mooring lines, anchors, and a control station. Simulations were performed with the cage at the surface of the water and at a depth of 20 m. A Morison equation type model was used for simulations of the system in two configurations. The force parameters described both regular and random waves, with and without currents, and their values were input to the model. Mooring tension calculations were conducted on the mooring lines, grid lines and lower bridle lines of the cage. The stability of the mooring lines was checked under both static and dynamic conditions.

The inherent strain method is known to be very efficient in predicting the deformation of steel plate by line heating. However, in the actual line heating process in shipyard, the rapid quenching changes the phase of steel. In this study, In order to consider additional effects under phase transformation, inherent strain regions were assumed to expand. Also, when calculating inherent strain, material properties of steel in heating and cooling are applied differently considering phase transformation. In this process, a new method which can reflect thermal volume expansion of martensite is suggested.8y the suggested method, it was possible to predict the plate deformations by line heating more precisely.

There is a continuous development of the most common welding processes like MMA, MIG/MAG, PAW and SAW. At the same time there is a conversion from stick electrodes to solid and cored wires with an increased productivity as a result. In parallel with these changes new processes are introduced and implemented. The number of Friction Stir Welding installations is starting to grow fast Hybrid laser welding has probably made a technical break through. The Magnetic Pulse Welding process is taking off. The different mechanical joining methods; clinching and self-piercing riveting; must not be forgotten. Structural adhesive is another method to consider.

DSME has developed Sub-assembly Welding Robot System(SWRS) in order to increase the productivity of arc welding and to improve hazard and unclean environments in shipbuilding. DSME's SWRS includes a number of equipments such as four overhanging 6-axis articulated robot manipulators(10kg pay-load), gantry system, vision system detecting the workpiece automatically, and OLP system using the CAD data and a central control system integrating an anti-collision module. The SWRS was installed in CAS(Component Assembly Shop) of DSME's OKPO shipyard in August 2006, and now SWRS is running well in site.

Autonomous of welding process in shipyard is ultimately necessary., since welding site is spatially enclosed by floors and girders, and therefore welding operators are exposed to hostile working conditions. To solve this problem, a welding robot that can navigate autonomously within the enclosure needs to be developed. To achieve the welding ra나, the robotic welding systems needs a sensor system for the recognition of the working environments and the weld seam tracking, and a specially designed environment recognition strategy. In this paper, a three-dimensional laser vision system is developed based on the optical triangulation technology in order to provide robots with work environmental map. At the same time a strategy for environment recognition for welding mobile robot is proposed in order to recognize the work environment efficiently. The design of the sensor system, the algorithm for sensing the structured environment, and the recognition strategy and tactics for sensing the work environment are described and dis-cussed in detail.

After the construction of offshore plants, the function and integrity of system in offshore plants should be commissioned. As the executor of many FLNG projects, Samsung Heavy Industries Co., Ltd has faced some challenges for commissioning which are not similar to those in other offshore project. This study shows the differences between the commissioning of typical offshore projects and the one of FLNG projects. By the characteristics of offshore, performing the commissioning activity of FLNG near shipyard as much as possible reduces the risk of malfunction. The possible solutions to achieve these strategies are introduced.

An Inspection system, composed of sensor head and controller, is presented which is a 3-D laser vision system using principles of optical triangulation for weld quality and chamfer quality. The sensor head id composed of laser diode, micro CCD camera, filter and several optical components. This systems can be used in welding bead and undercut inspection and chamfer quality inspection as well. It is mech more convenient to use and the inspection time is to be greatly shortened compared with conventional inspection method. Furthermore, data saved in controller can be used for statistics afterwards. This system has been begin used in Koje Shipyard of Samsung Heavy Industries and the need is being increased.

Alignment of marine engine shafting generally implies a judicious slope alignment of supporting bearings in order to achieve acceptable values of bearing reactions and shaft stresses for all deformation conditions of hull. Authors developed a computer program, which computes the bearing reaction forces, the bearing reaction influence numbers and etc, using quadruple integration method. And the results of calculation for a 26,000 DWT steam container carrier were in good agreements with those of foreign shipyard. Also they introduced the optimization technique of slope alignment combined technical economic basis, and as a result of comparing characteristics of shafting in case of straight alignment whit those in case of slope alignment, the latter was found to be much better than the former.

Most of tasks for vertical surface work in shipyard have been accomplished by human workers. However, such manual work often causes injury to workers, also the production cost becomes high due to increasing individual wage. To cope with the circumstance, shipbuilding companies try to introduce wall-climbing robots for carrying out such kind of tasks. In designing a wall-climbing robot, it is essential to minimize its own weight to improve the performance such as moving speed and power saving. For such purpose. this study proposes a method of optimal design for a wall-climbing robot using a genetic algorithm with multi-objective function. Specifically, the thickness of the robot base is minimized to reduce the weight while maintaining the allowable strength and avoiding the resonance frequencies. The proposed method is applied to the design of a wall-climbing robot, and the result shows that the method is useful at an early design stage.
