해상에서 사고 선박을 신속하게 예인하는 것은 현장에서 일어날 수 있는 2차적인 피해를 사전에 예방할 수 있는 중요한 조치이다. 이를 위해서는 예인선을 이용하여 사고선박을 이동시켜야 하고 예인선과 피 예인 선박은 예인삭에 의해 연결되게 된다. 자력운항이 불가능한 상태에서 피 예인 선박은 예인선의 예인력에 의해 거동이 좌우되고 예인력은 해상환경 및 피예인 선박의 저항력을 고려하여 결정되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 피 예인 선박 예인 시 예인저항과 이로 인해 예인삭에 걸리는 장력해석법에 대해 검토한다. 본 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과는 사고선박 예인지원시스템에 효율적으로 활용 가능할 것이다.

Lately, tugboats are widely used to maneuver vessels by pushing or towing them where tugboats use rope. In order to correctly control the motion of tugboat and towed vessel, the dynamics of the towline would be well identified. In real application environment, the towing rope length changes and the towing load is not constant due to the various sizes of towed vessel. And there are many ropes made by many types of materials. It means that it is not easy to obtain rope dynamics, such that it is too difficult to satisfy the given control purpose by designing control system. Thus real time identification or adaptive control system design method may be a solution. However it is necessary to secure sufficient information about rope dynamics to obtain desirable control performance. In this paper, the authors try to have several rope dynamic models by changing the rope length to consider real application conditions. Among them, a representative model is selected and the others are considered as uncertain models which are considered in control system design. The authors design a robust control to cope with strong uncertain and nonlinear property included in the real plant. The designed control system based on robust control framework is evaluated by simulation.

It is necessary to estimate more accurately the resistance of barge in still water and waves to compute the break load of towline and towing power for safety towing performance. The method proposed by government has calculated the total resistance of barge which is composed of frictional resistance, wave making resistance and air resistance considering the shape of hull and towing speed. However, the added resistance is equally applied with the significant wave height regardless of the type of vessels. In this study, we have carried out the numerical calculation to estimate the added resistance of wigley model in waves and compared with the experiment data to confirm the accuracy of the method. Then the computation was executed for the barge varying shape of the bow. As a result, added resistance of barge was differently occurred i.e. 0.3∼1.1 ton according to encounter angle, 0.4∼1.2 ton according to towing speed and 0.5∼1.1 ton according to shape of bow.
