  • ICLL 66 is the most widely ratified instrument of the IMO and is, along with the International Convention on Safety of life at Sea (SOLAS), the primary document setting forth internationally agreed ship safety standards. ICLL 66 set freeboard requirement based on experience gained from the first Load Line Convention in 1930 and on contemporary developments in ship design. Reexamination of ICLL 66 is indicated by the proliferation of novel ship designs for which it lacks adequate regulations and by significant advancements in analytical seakeeping and deck wetness prediction techniques now available to the designer. In this paper, the Freeboard Advisory Group reviews these issues against the changing climate of the marine industry and maritime administrations, discusses the state of the art in analytical seakeeping programs, and outlines a series of recommendations for the establishment of a new international load line convention for the next century. The steps needs for an international program at IMO are discussed and a new convention is proposed.

  • A nautical chart is an essential material not only for the safety of navigation at sea, but also for the research and understanding of the ocean. Paper nautical harts have been used for navigational purposes for several hundreds years, but it was show that paper nautical charts have certain limitations, because the speed of ships has increased dramatically, and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are now available at sea. Thus, the development of digital charts has been conducted by a number of countries. As a result, the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) has developed a standard format, Special Publication No. 57 (S-57), as a guideline for the production of electronic navigational charts (ENC). Even though ENCs are a state-of-the-art navigational tool because they are produced on the basis of Geographical Information System (GIS) technology, they can be utilized for various purposes. in this paper, the usage of paper nautical charts, ENCs, and digital charts is reviewed. Also, the various application system that make use of electronic navigational harts and digital charts, as a basic geographical source of information, will be examined on the basis of GIS.

  • In state-of-the-art games, characters can move in a goal-directed manner so that they can move to the goal position without colliding obstacles. Many path-finding methods have been proposed and implemented for these characters and most of them use the A* search algorithm. When .the map is represented with a regular grid of squares or a navigation mesh, it often takes a long time for the A* to search the state space because the number of cells used In the grid or the mesh increases for higher resolution. Moreover the A* search on the grid often causes a zigzag effect, which is not optimal and realistic. In this paper we propose to use visibility graphs to improve the search time by reducing the search space and to find the optimal path. We also propose a method of taking into account the size of moving characters in the phase of planning to prevent them from colliding with obstacles as they move. Simulation results show that the proposed method performs better than the grid-based A* algorithm in terms of the search time and space and that the resulting paths are more realistic.

  • Agency for Defense Development (ADD) developed the Submarine Acoustic Information Management System (SAIMS Version 1.0) capable of interfacing some submarine sensors in operation and predicting detection environments for sonars. The major design concepts are as follows: 1) A proper acoustic model is examined and optimized to cover wide spectra of frequency ranges for both active and passive sonars. 2) Interfacing the submarine sensors to an electric navigation chart, the system attempts to maximize the applicability of the information produced. 3) The state-of-the-art database in large area is built and managed on the system. 4) An algorithm, which is able to estimate a full sound speed profile from the limited oceanographic data, is developed and employed on the system. This paper briefly describes design concepts and algorithms embedded in the SAIMS. The applicability of the SAIMS was verified through three sea experiments in October 2003-February 2004.

  • In recent years, large-scale and high-density use of LED on facades has exposed some disadvantages, such as light pollution, high energy consumption, unsustainability, and poor interactivity. Because of the development of smartphones and augmented reality (AR), AR has emerged as a new technology available to users to interact with the media façade. As an augmented reality app for public space, the AR map app can superimpose virtual images on the surface of a building to form an AR media façade, which can be applied in the fields of navigation, advertising, interactive public art, smart retail, etc. This study establishes the variables influencing usage intention and the consequent outcomes of Huawei AR map app and uses the technology acceptance model (TAM) to discuss their relationship. Results show that consumer innovativeness, information quality, and design quality have a strong influence on perceived ease of use. Information quality has a positive impact on perceived usefulness, but design quality has a weak influence. Also, the design quality of Huawei AR map app and consumer innovativeness have a higher effect on perceived enjoyment than information quality. Users' usage attitude and perceived usefulness when using Huawei AR map app are key factors determining their usage intention. This study inspires city planners, architects, developers, and designers of AR apps that augmented reality can partly replace media façade, and that investment in augmented reality will achieve significant sustainable economic and social benefits.

  • Incheon Bridge, 18.4 km long sea-crossing bridge, will be opened to the traffic in October 2009 and this will be the new landmark of the gearing up north-east Asia as well as the largest & longest bridge of Korea. Incheon Bridge is the integrated set of several special featured bridges including a magnificent cable-stayed girder bridge which has a main span of 800 m width to cross the navigation channel in and out of the Port of Incheon. Incheon Bridge is making an epoch of long-span bridge designs thanks to the fully application of the AASHTO LRFD (load & resistance factor design) to both the superstructures and the substructures. A state-of-the-art of the geotechnologies which were applied to the Incheon Bridge construction project is introduced. The most Large-diameter drilled shafts were penetrated into the bedrock to support the colossal superstructures. The bearing capacity and deformational characteristics of the foundations were verified through the world's largest static pile load test. 8 full-scale pilot piles were tested in both offshore site and onshore area prior to the commencement of constructions. Compressible load beyond 30,000 tonf pressed a single 3 m diameter foundation pile by means of bi-directional loading method including the Osterberg cell techniques. Detailed site investigation to characterize the subsurface properties had been carried out. Geotextile tubes, tied sheet pile walls, and trestles were utilized to overcome the very large tidal difference between ebb and flow at the foreshore site. 44 circular-cell type dolphins surround the piers near the navigation channel to protect the bridge against the collision with aberrant vessels. Each dolphin structure consists of the flat sheet piled wall and infilled aggregates to absorb the collision impact. Geo-centrifugal tests were performed to evaluate the behavior of the dolphin in the seabed and to verify the numerical model for the design. Rip-rap embankments on the seabed are expected to prevent the scouring of the foundation. Prefabricated vertical drains, sand compaction piles, deep cement mixings, horizontal natural-fiber drains, and other subsidiary methods were used to improve the soft ground for the site of abutments, toll plazas, and access roads. Light-weight backfill using EPS blocks helps to reduce the earth pressure behind the abutment on the soft ground. Some kinds of reinforced earth like as MSE using geosynthetics were utilized for the ring wall of the abutment. Soil steel bridges made of corrugated steel plates and engineered backfills were constructed for the open-cut tunnel and the culvert. Diverse experiences of advanced designs and constructions from the Incheon Bridge project have been propagated by relevant engineers and it is strongly expected that significant achievements in geotechnical engineering through this project will contribute to the national development of the longspan bridge technologies remarkably.

  • Emergencies and disasters can happen any time without any warning, and things can change and escalate very quickly, and often it is swift and decisive actions that make all the difference. It is a responsibility of the building facility management to ensure that a proven evacuation plan in place to cover various worst scenario to handled automatically inside the facility. To mapping out optimal safe escape routes is a straightforward undertaking, but does not necessarily guarantee residents the highest level of protection. The emergency evacuation navigation approach is a state-of-the-art that designed to evacuate human livings during an emergencies based on real-time decisions using live sensory data with pre-defined optimum path finding algorithm. The poor decision on causalities and guidance may apparently end the evacuation process and cannot then be remedied. This paper propose a cloud connected emergency evacuation system model to react dynamically to changes in the environment in emergency for safest emergency evacuation using IoT based emergency exit sign system. In the previous researches shows that the performance of optimal routing algorithms for evacuation purposes are more sensitive to the initial distribution of evacuees, the occupancy levels, and the type and level of emergency situations. The heuristic-based evacuees routing algorithms have a problem with the choice of certain parameters which causes evacuation process in real-time. Therefore, this paper proposes an evacuee routing algorithm that optimizes evacuation by making using high computational power of cloud servers. The proposed algorithm is evaluated via a cloud-based simulator with different "simulated casualties" are then re-routed using a Dijkstra's algorithm to obtain new safe emergency evacuation paths against guiding evacuees with a predetermined routing algorithm for them to emergency exits. The performance of proposed approach can be iterated as long as corrective action is still possible and give safe evacuation paths and dynamically configure the emergency exit signs to react for real-time instantaneous safe evacuation guidance.

  • 본 연구는 해군함정이 협수로 연안항해시 실시하고 있는 교차방위법을 살펴보았다. 특히, 물표 측정 순서에 의해 오차가 적게 발생하는 위치산출 방법, 권고 침로 산출 방법 및 위치 산출 후 조함권자에게 보고하는 사항을 항해안전 측면에서 살펴보았다. 해군 함정의 경우 협수로 항해 시, 협수로 연안 항해 요원이 배치되어 보다 강화된 항해 안전태세를 유지하게 된다. 물론 최신 기술의 발달로 다양한 항해장비가 등장하고 있어, 별도의 함위 산출 요원이 없어도 함위를 정확히 산출할 수 있다. 그러나 해군 함정의 경우 교전 시 언제든 함정손상이 발생할 수 있다는 점, 최근 지속적인 북한의 전파 교란으로 인해 항해 장비를 운용할 수 없는 상황이 발생할 수 있다는 점, 상선과는 다르게 함교에 충분한 인원이 배치될 수 있다는 점 등 교차방위법을 사용할 필요성이 존재한다. 본 연구를 통해 해군 함정 교차방위법이 항해안전 측면에서 개선되고, 초급장교들의 Seamanship 함양에 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • 거친 바다를 운항하는 선박의 경우 횡 동요로 인해 선박 내의 장비운영 문제 및 탑승객들에게 큰 불편함을 초래한다. 따라서 횡동요 감쇠를 위한 목적으로 빌지 킬, 핀 안정기, 자이로스코프, ART(Anti-Rolling Tank), 타, 플랩 등 다양한 횡 동요 감쇠장치들이 사용되고 있다. 콴다효과는 콴다제트가 곡면의 표면을 따라 흐르며 주위 유동의 순환을 증가시켜 양력을 효과적으로 발생시키는 방법으로 핀의 양력성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 모형시험 및 수치계산을 통해 콴다효과를 적용한 고정식 핀 안정기의 사용가능성을 검토하였다. 그 결과 받음각이 $0^{\circ}$에서, 제트모멘텀을 $C_j$ = 0.25 만큼 공급할 때, 기준 핀의 최대 작동각($26^{\circ}$)에서 발생되는 양력과 동일하게 발생되는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 받음각을 변화시키는 기존의 핀 안정기와 달리 받음각을 고정하고, 콴다효과를 통한 제트유동제어만으로 선박의 횡 동요를 능동적으로 제어 할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.
