It is one of the important processes to predict the resistance of the towed ship when towing a disabled ship on the sea. Besides the basic resistance of hull itself, there are various added resistance, especially the added resistance due to waves can be considered one of the biggest component. In this paper, the algorithm which predict the added resistance due to waves of a disabled ship by theoretical analysis method of ISO 15016 standard was established, and realized as a computer program. The calculated result for an example ship was compared with existing standard one, and it is considered that this algorithm and computer program are appropriate to use for predicting the resistance and towing force of the disabled ship actually.

When a disabled ship is being towed in a seaway, the speed and direction of the towed ship are estimated by using the towing force and direction of the selected tug boats at the predicted sea conditions including the wind and currents. In this paper, prediction method at the towing conditions of the various towing operations for a disabled ship are studied. The proposed calculation method suggests firstly the method to import the speed and resistance of the forward direction of the towed ship calculated by the existing computer program, second, the method to calculate the speed and resistance of the towed direction of the towed ship acquired from the selected tug boats at the initial towing conditions and lastly, the method to calculate the speed and resistance of the towed direction for the towed ship at the stable towing conditions. These calculation methods have been applied to the computer program and this program has been approved to be a useful program, capable of appropriately predicting the towed ship's conditions.

Ships sailing the seas encounter air resistance. The air resistance depends on the shape of the above-water hull, the ship speed, the wind speed and wind direction. The experimental or statistical methods which are used to predict the air resistance are one of the essential procedures of the calculation of the towing force of the disabled ships. This paper shows simplified air resistance prediction method using the variables of the projected area of the above-water hull, the speed of the ship, the wind speed and its direction. These methods have been applied to the existing computer program which had been set up to predict the towing force of the disabled ships.

When a disabled ship is being towed in a seaway, the resistance increase of the towed ship caused by both the external conditions such as wave and wind and the hull conditions such as drifting angle, should be accurately predicted. Most of the disabled ships cannot be towed in the front direction of hull, but they are usually towed in drifted direction with some drifting angle. In this sense, the resistance increase caused by the drifting angle is not an element to be ignored. In this paper, various methods for prediction of the resistance increase caused by the drifting angle are studied. In addition, new prediction methods such as front-lateral projected ratio method and empirical formula method by multiple regression analysis have been derived. The front-lateral projected area ratio method has been applied to a computer program for prediction of the towing condition, and this method has been approved to be a useful method in practical situations.

Most of hull resistance prediction methods which are used to calculate the towing force of disabled ships are very simple and old-fashioned. In particular, in cases of barge ships, a method similar to the US Navy Towing Manual is being used. This paper reviewed the US Navy Towing Manual and the notification method of Korea Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and proved that these prediction methods are irrational and inaccurate. Furthermore, a new Modified-Yamagata-Barge method is introduced as a more rational and accurate resistance prediction method which can be applied in case of barge ships.

To project military power, the paradigm of the modern warship aquisition has evolved with more large platform and high-technology equipment. For example, the Aegis combat system equipped warship is one of the most advanced and capable defense systems currently in use. Concurrently, if the warship attacked and disabled, it may worse the asymmetry of the battle field and it also depress the morale of the fleet. For that reason, to keep and protect few number of the big and high technology equipped warship from enemy is very important. At the present, the performance of unit weapon has enhanced remarkably. A Korean-built SS-209 class submarine, Lee Chun-ham, participated in Naval Exercise Tandem Thrust conducted in 1999, sink the target ship ex-USS Oklahoma by a single torpedo. USS Stark was struck on May 17, 1987, by two Exocet anti ship missiles and disabled. For this reason, susceptibility should be prior to vulnerability and recoverability. In this paper, deception ship which is small and chief but has very similar signatures to large and high technology equiped warship has conceptually studied by using systems engineering approach. And it may be a effective way to enhance the susceptibility of the key fighting power.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the perceptions of passengers on various topics related to passenger ship operation, by targeting the passengers (passenger ship consumers) at coastal passenger terminals in three regions, Incheon, Mokpo, and Tongyeong, where many coastal passenger ships operate in Korea. The survey period was October 1-October 11, 2019, just before the outbreak of COVID-19, and the number of samples was 277. The analysis was divided into two elements. Results of the analysis show that, for items islanders as well as the general public did not respond to more than 50% positively, a more in-depth review of policies and fare policies for transportation-disabled facilities through comprehensive fare evaluation such as the excellence of transportation-disabled facilities, the appropriateness of fares, and the appropriateness of fare guidance are necessary. It is expected that this study will contribute to the preparation for re-opening after COVID-19, as well as contribute to public transportation policy.

The survey period was from October 1 to October 11, 2019, just before the outbreak of Corona 19, and the number of samples was 277 The analysis was divided into two elements. As a result of the analysis, for items that both islanders and the general public did not respond to more than 50% positively, a more in-depth review of policies and fare policies for transportation-disabled facilities through comprehensive fare evaluation such as the excellence of transportation-disabled facilities, the appropriateness of fares, and the appropriateness of fare guidance. was found to be necessary. It is expected that this study will be able to prepare for re-opening after COVID-19 and be used in public transportation policy.

In this paper, calculation of towing force required to tow the ship and experiments to verify its appropriacy are discussed. Friction, wind and wave-making resistance of vessel are considered to calculate towing force of specified vessel. Propeller resistance is also reflected and it is assumed that the propellers are locked. Node analysis to estimate additional resistance on towline is applied. Total towing force could be obtained by adding the ship's resistance and towline resistance. Experiments with training ship SAE YU DAL was executed to check the effectiveness of calculation methods and some comparison between experiments and calculation results was also done. From the comparative analysis, we confirmed that towing speed is primary terms in the calculation of towing force and propeller resistance is a major elements of ship's resistance with the increasing of towing speed. We can see that additional resistance induced by yawing of ship during towing have to be considered for total tow resistance.
