기존의 항만 부진동현상 해석은 대부분 완전유체라는 가정하에 선형이론에 기초하여 개발된 수치 모델에 의해 수행되고 있다. 실제의 경우에는 해저면의 마찰, 고체경계면을 따른 에너지 손실, 단면의 급 축소 및 확대에 따른 에너지 손실 등이 존재하므로, 이와 같은 에너지의 손실을 고려하지 않고 선형해석을 수행하게 되면 실제와는 다른 과장된 결과를 얻게 된다. 특히, 항 입구의 폭이 좁은 경우에는 실제와는 다르게 증폭비가 대단히 크게 예측된다. (중략)

현재 사용중인 대부분의 항만부진동 예측을 위한 수치모형은 Lee(1969), Chen and Mei(1974)의 경우와 같이 Helmholtz 방정식을 사용하고 있으나 여기에는 경계면에서의 에너지 흡수 및 해저면 마찰에 의한 에너지 감쇠가 제외되었다. 그러나, 항내 파랑응답 문제에서는 경계면에서의 흡수와 해저면 마찰에 의한 에너지 감쇠가 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 보고되고 있다(Ganaba et al., 1982).(중략)

A deep water wave prediction model applicable to the East Sea is presnted. This model incorporates rediative transter of energy specrum, atmospheric input form the wind, nonlinear interaction, and energy dissipation by white capping. The propagation scheme by Gadd shows satisfactory results and the characteristics of the nonlinear interaction is simulated well by discrete interaction approximatiion. The application of the model to the sea around the Korean Peninsula shows reasonable agreement with the observation.

The use of ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) to generate electricity is one of the methods proposed to utilize renewable energy and to protect the environment. In this study, simulations were performed to investigate the effect of weather conditions in the Ulsan region, Korea, on the efficiency of a solar-heating OTEC (SH-OTEC) system. This system utilizes solar thermal energy as the secondary heat source. Various working fluids were also simulated to select one that is suitable for this system. The results showed that R152A, R600, and R600A, in that order, were the most suitable working fluids. The effective area of the solar collector for a $20^{\circ}C$ increase in the collector outlet temperature fluctuated from 50 to $97m^2$ owing to the change in the monthly average solar gain. The annual average efficiency of the SH-OTEC increases to 6.23%, compared to that of a typical conventional OTEC, which is 2-4%.

The International Maritime Organization has recently strengthened its marine environment regulations. The energy efficiency index has long been an important indicator of ship design, and now, energy efficiency is being enforced for existing ships as well as new ships. To increase the energy efficiency of existing ships, methods such as retrofitting the bow bulb, selecting an optimized trim during ship operation, and installing an energy saving device have been applied. In this study, the ship resistance was numerically simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) under various bow and stern trim conditions. In addition, the bulb was redesigned to further improve the resistance performance under the selected trim conditions. When the improved bulb was applied, the effective horse power increased by approximately 5%. It is, however, necessary to verify whether the redesigned bulb can reduce ship resistance in waves.

After the UN General Assembly on 2006, Interest on the marine litter has rapidly increased internationally. The UN sub-organizations, UNEP/Regional Seas, FAO(Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) and OC(Ocean Conservancy) as a one of world NGO had been tackled to collect information and prepared world reports related on marine litter, recently, those are published. Through the 10years experience of Korea's policy on marine litter since 1999, it is re-evaluated as a roll model internationally. In this paper, brief introduction of structure and function of Korea's authorities which are responsible for or are involved in the marine litter issue as well as the National Marine Litter Management Basic Plan which is established in 2008, has been provided. This paper also included the structure and roll of the marine litter initiative center in the plan. Change of the paradigm of action plan on marine litter in Korea already had been started.

Wireless communication in marine environments requires a significant amount of power for long-range communication, resulting in high energy consumption. Moreover, the numerous constraints in marine environments make it difficult to apply existing wireless communication technologies, necessitating the development of new technologies to address these issues. This paper investigates beam selection technology for marine environments, which reduces overall power consumption and minimizes interference between signals by selecting and transmitting necessary beams for communication in a specific area, enabling better quality communication. We validate the energy efficiency of the beam selection technology through simulations and compare it with existing wireless communication technologies. The results show that beam selection technology consumes less power and provides better communication quality than existing wireless communication technologies. Therefore, beam selection technology plays a critical role in establishing efficient communication systems in marine environments, and its application can improve communication quality over a broader area.

Annual power consumption of our country is positioned in the upper percentile in the world, and because the proportion of fossil power generation is high, which ranks the 10th $CO_2$ emission country. In this regard, government has established and is implementing the National Energy Basic Plan to realize to get out of fossilization in energy supply while focusing on securing the technology for renewable energy as well as its commercialization in order to reduce greenhouse gas. Resource recovery technology for deep seawater thermal energy which is one of renewable energies is newly getting attention domestically as well as in overseas for securing resources and environmental improvement as a core technology for multilateral use of marine resources for low carbon and green growth. Economic feasibility analysis was conducted for the research and development as follows on the use of ocean thermal energy conversion and seawater air conditioning. First, in the case of power generation using deep seawater and warm discharge water from ocean thermal energy conversion plant of 1MW level, it is judged that the economic feasibility is insufficient but the feasibility will be significantly improved if we consider not only power generation but also drinking water and certified emission reduction by developing the power plant to the size for commercialization. Second, the economic feasibility for the use of deep seawater as air conditioning for the power plant of 1,000RT level turned out to be very good. Especially, when we consider certified emission reduction, it will be possible to secure sufficient economic feasibility. When we use it in connection with ocean thermal energy conversion, water conversion and agricultural and fishery use, it is judged that economic ripple effect will be significant and therefore it will be necessary to conduct research and development for early commercialization, distribution and diffusion of deep seawater energy.
