As a part of the first stage in the helicopter flight simulator development, this study numerically evaluates handling qualities of the dynamics model. The flight dynamics model was generated using public information for AS365 N2, the target aircraft of the simulator. The flight simulator is under development as a pilot training and research tool for firefighting missions. The assessment of the model intends to validate general characteristics and suitability before the model is enhanced with flight test data. The evaluation is based on the ADS-33E-PRF(Aeroautical Design Standard Performance Specification Handling Qualities Requirement) criteria, with consideration of category of the aircraft, missions, and environment. The numerical operations follow required or recommended procedures of flight test for compliance demonstration. Evaluation results are evaluated according to the rating specified in maneuverability ADS-33E-PRF. Results have identified to provide a satisfactory platform for flight dynamic model in the general helicopter simulator generated based on the RotorLibFDM, and can be used as a base for basic training and research.

In this paper, the towing stability of the LNG bunker barge is estimated. Currently, LNG bunkering barge is being developed as an infrastructure for the bunkering of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas), an eco-friendly energy source. Since the LNG bunker barge are in the form of towed ship connected to the tow line, the towing stability of the LNG bunker barge is very important for the safety of not only the LNG bunker barge but also the surrounding sailing vessels. The numerical code for towing simulation was developed to estimate the towing stability of the LNG bunker barge at the initial design stage. The MMG(Manoeuvring Mathematical Group) model was applied to the equations of motion and the empirical formula was applied to the maneuvering coefficients so that they could be used in the initial design stage. To validity of the developed numerical code, it was compared with published calculation and model test results. Towing simulations were carried out according to with and without stern skeg of the LNG bunker barge using the developed numerical code. Through the results of the simulations, the appropriateness of the stern skeg area designed was confirmed.

The effects of inner liquid sloshing on vessel motions are a well-known factor. It was investigated experimentally and numerically. In this regard, the study of many efforts to reduce natural phenomena of vessel motions by adopting special devices especially for roll motions. Among many devices, inserting baffles in the inner liquid tank is very common. In this study, one investigated the vessel motions with inner sloshing tanks with baffles inside. For the numerical simulation, one employed a dynamically coupled program between boundary-element-method-based vessel motion analysis program and a particle-based computational fluid dynamics program. Comparing corresponding experimental results validated the dynamically coupled program. The validated coupled program was used to simulate vessel motions, including sloshing effects with various lengths of inner baffles. The simulation results show that not only the filling ratio of inner liquid, but also the length of clearance due to baffles influenced the vessel motions. The significant point of this study was that the natural frequency of vessel motions can be maintained irrespective of the amount of filling ratio through adjustment of the clearance. In a future study, the effects of various numbers of baffles with various clearances would be conducted to percuss the possibility of vessel motion control with inner liquid sloshing effects.

The current is considered in the conventional manoeuvering equation. This equation is represented as the nonlinear state and measurement equations in which external forces and the direction and the velocity of current are augmented as that variables. The external forces are modeled as the third-order Gauss-Markov processes and the direction and the velocity of current are assumed to be constant. The augmented state variables are estimated with extended Kalman-Bucy filter and the fixed-interval smoother. While Hwang estimated motion state variables, hydrodynamic coefficients and the current variables simultaneously by using extended Kalman filter, external forces of surge, sway and yaw and the direction and the velocity of current are the only parameters to be estimated in the estimation-before-modeling method. The current variables are satisfactorily estimated in simulation process where the measurement noise is present.

The driver's steering wheel maneuver is a typical disturbance that causes excessive body motion and traveling instability of a vehicle. Abrupt and extreme operation can cause rollover depending on the geometric and dynamic characteristics, e.g., SUV vehicles. In this study, to cope with the performance limitation of conventional cars, fundamental research on the structurization of a control system was performed as follows. Mathematical modeling of the lateral behavior induced by driver input was carried out. A controller was designed to reduce the body motion based on this model. An algorithm was applied to secure robust control performance against modeling errors due to parameter uncertainty, $H_{\infty}$. Using the decoupled 1/4 car, a dynamic load simulating model considering the body moment was suggested. The simulation result showed the validity of the load-simulating model. The framework for a lateral behavior control system is proposed, including an experimental 1/4 vehicle unit, load simulating module, suspension control module, and hardware-in-the-loop simulation technology.

선박의 운항 상태를 재현하기 위한 시뮬레이터의 가시화 프로그램은 컴퓨터 그래픽 기법을 이용하여 사용자에게 실제로 선박을 운항하는 현실감을 제공하는 기능을 가져야 한다. 시뮬레이터를 위한 3차원 그래픽의 특성은 실제 상황을 실시간(real-time)으로 재현(15∼30Hz Update rates)해야 하는 기능이 요구되기 때문에 시점 변화에 빠른 그래픽 관련 계산 및 화면 표시에 필요한 시간 제약이 비교적 적은 CAD나 Animation용 3차원 그래픽 시스템과 달리, 시뮬레이션 대상 물체의 운동 상태를 정확히 표현하기 위한 빠른 3차원 그래픽 재현 기능이 매우 중요한 요소가 된다. 그러나 현실감 재현의 관점에서 광고 및 영화용 Animation시스템에서와 같은 Poto-Realistic한 현실감 재현 기능도 무시할 수 없는 요소이고, 현재 최신 컴퓨터 그래픽 기술의 발전과 고성능 그래픽 장비의 개발로 빠른 update rate의 현실감 있는 화면 재현이 가능해 지고 있고 이러한 기능의 요구가 점차 높아지고 있다.

최근 들어 급증하고 있는 해양 충돌 사고 증가의 원인은 선박을 조종하는 항해사의 잘못된 판단 에 의한 부주의가 대부분이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 가장 적극적인 방법은 선박에 자동화 및 지능화를 부여하여 항해사의 실수를 최소화하는 것이다. 대표적인 연구는 선박의 자율운항시스템(autonomous navigation system)이 있는데, 이는 선박운항에 있어 항해계획을 수립하고 현재의 선박의 상태를 파악하여 선박을 적절히 제어하는 항해 전문가시스템이다. 선박 자율운항시스템은 실세계의 선박에 장착되어 실험하여야하나, 선박은 고가의 운송수단이고, 자율운항시스템을 장착하기 위한 하부장치 인터페이스를 설계 및 구현에 많은 시간이 소요되므로 실제 선박을 모방하는 선박시뮬레이터를 이용하는 방법이 타당하다. 선박시뮬레이터는 선박의 물리적 운항특성을 모방하는 선박운동시뮬레이터와 선박 운항 주변에 변화하는 장애물을 시뮬레이터 하는 주변 객체시뮬레이터로 구성된다. 본 연구에서는 선박 운항 주변에 등장하는 장애물 변화를 시뮬레이션하고, 이에 기반한 ARPA RADAR를 모의 가동하는 주변객체시뮬레이터를 개발한다.

Especially in the case of a full form ship, the stability on course can be considered to become severest among 4 items of criteria in Interim Standards for Ship Maneuverability adopted by IMO in 1993. The purpose of this study is to find some ideas for the improvement of stability on course through changes in rudder area with reference to span distance. In this paper, we established the formula on the relation between the experimental constants relevant to rudder normal force and hydrodynamic derivatives of hull-propeller-rudder system. We carried out various kinds of captive model test relevant to rudder normal force etc., and evaluated hydrodynamic derivatives of hull-propeller-rudder system, and analyzed the stability on course with the parameter of changes in rudder area. Furthermore, we also discussed effects of changes in rudder area on maneuvering performance including stability on course, based on computer simulation. As a result, it is clarified that there is a possibility that stability on course may become bad through an increase of rudder area. The reason for the bad stability on course is that the void space between the upper edge of rudder and the lower part of stern overhang decreases. This space change exerts a great influence on straightening coefficient of incoming flow to rudder in maneuvering motion, which has close relation to stability on course.

During flight the analysis of aircraft data recorded has played an important role in determining the causes of accidents. However, using the QAR, recently some airlines have begun to analyze flight data from uneventful airline flights to identify potential problems and correct them before they lead to accident. This paper, after the flight using the recorded data in QAR, proposes an estimated method which determines CL/CD values. The generalized aircraft dynamic equations were expressed as an estimated equation, which verified the effectiveness with simulation. The results of the present method showed that the understand of variation values of CL/CD is of great use for performance enhancement.
