In this paper, we investigated the design method of mooring system in ultra deep sea and carried out the conceptual design for offshore West Africa oil field in ultra deep sea of 3000 meters. Recently, it was feasible to design and install the offshore floating structures in deep sea of up to 2000 meters. Due to the simplicity, two-point mooring design is fully utilized. Force-excursion curves are throughly examined to find out the feasibility of various combinations of mooring lines. Free length and pretension effects are discussed. It is found that composite materials including synthetic fiber rope may be good solution for ultra deep sea mooring design.

Workplace accidents are common while working at elevations. Thus, various safety measures such as safety handrails and horizontal safety nets are implemented to prevent falls. The minimum safety measure is the lifeline installation. However, because its standards have not been clearly established, it is often misused, resulting in inappropriate knot methods that increase the chance of accidents while working at elevations. Therefore, clarifying the appropriate usage methods or criteria for the various lifelines is required in the field. This study proposed an appropriate installation method by experimentally and numerically evaluating the change in strength according to the fixed knot lifeline method. In addition, three knot methods were specified for each material. The results obtained are expected to contribute to lessening falls through the establishment of lifeline installation standards and the development of appropriate parts.

The laboratory inspection and analysis of several types of ropes such as edge tensile test, D/d tensile test and abrasion test were carried out in order to investigate the abrasion degradation by external damage and to obtain the fundamental data for measurement against the abrasion. PET ropes were socketed and evaluated under tensile testing. A yarn-on-yarn abrasion test machine has been developed to study the damage and failure associated with rubbing between fiber surfaces. The abrasion test method consists of sliding a length of interwrapped yarn against itself in a reciprocating fashion, either dry or immersed in liquid. It has also been adapted to measure yarn-on-yarn friction. The influence of spin finish on yarn friction and abrasion was investigated extensively. This study indicates that finish has a major effect not only on yarn performance but also on rope performance under the marine environment.

When strain sensing cables are under long-term stress and cyclic loading, creep may occur in the jacket material and each layer of the cable structure may slide relative to other layers, causing fatigue in the cables. This study proposes a device for testing the fatigue characteristics of three types of cables operating under different conditions to establish a decay model for observing the patterns of strain decay. The fatigue characteristics of cables encased in polyurethane (PU), GFRP-reinforced, and wire rope-reinforced jackets were compared. The findings are outlined as follows. The cable strain decayed exponentially, and the decay process involved quick decay, slow decay, and stabilization stages. Moreover, the strain decay increased with the initial strain and tensile frequency. The shorter the unstrained period was, the more similar the initial strain levels of the strain decay curves were to the stabilized strain levels of the first cyclic elongation. As the unstrained period increased, the initial strain levels of the strain decay curves approached those of the first cyclic elongation. The tested sensing cables differed in the amount and rate of strain decay. The wire rope-reinforced cable exhibited the smallest amount and rate of decay, whereas the GFRP-reinforced cable demonstrated the largest.

산업혁명 이후 대량생산 체제는 인류의 삶을 풍요롭게 하여왔으며, 소비자들의 욕구를 충족시키기 위하여 기업들의 경쟁력은 단순한 제품의 생산에만 머무르지 않고 품질, 가격, 기술면에서 끊임없이 노력해 왔다. 그러나 이러한 변화속에서 안전성이 결여된 생산품들이 발생하게 되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 제조물책임법에 대한 안전대책으로서 실제 선박이나 운동기구 등에 사용되는 화학섬유 로프를 생산하고 있는 국내 기업을 대상으로 제조물에 대하여 연구를 하였다. 하나의 결과로 제조물책임에 대한 대비능력의 평가방법인 체크리스트는 결과적으로 기업의 현재 위치에 대한 평가와 더불어 개선되어야 할 문제점들을 제시함으로써 평가가 아닌 발전의 요소로 이용될 수 있다. 또한 체크리스트는 각종 경영관리 시스템을 효과적으로 대응할 수 있도록 되어 있어 생산안전에도 도움이 될 것이다.

본 연구에서는 열중합 의치상 레진에 유리 섬유, 아라미드 섬유, 폴리에틸렌 섬유를 2.6%, 5.3% 부피비로 첨가하여 섬유의 종류에 따른 강화효과를 평가하고, 각 섬유를 두 가지로 조합한 hybrid FRC를 제작하여 동일 함량의 단독 섬유 FRC보다 굴곡성질이 더 우수한지 평가하고자 하였다. 단독 섬유 FRC에서는 5.3% 부피비의 GL, PE 섬유군의 굴곡강도가 높게 나타났다. 두 가지 섬유 조합FRC의 굴곡강도는 단독 섬유 FRC보다 증가하는 양상을 보였으나, 5.3% GL, PE 섬유군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 단독 섬유 FRC의 굴곡계수는 5.3% 부피비의 GL 섬유군이 가장 높게 나타났다. 두 가지 섬유 조합FRC의 굴곡계수는 단독 섬유 FRC의 5.3% GL 섬유군보다 높게 나타나 유의한 차이를 보였다. 열중합 의치상 레진의 강화를 위해 섬유를 단독으로 이용할 경우 5.3% 부피비로 첨가한 유리 섬유가 굴곡강도와 굴곡계수 면에서 효과적으로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 본다. 두 가지 섬유 조합FRC의 경우 굴곡강도 면에서는 강화효과가 크지 않았지만, 굴곡계수 면에서 볼 때 유리섬유를 하방에 아라미드 섬유를 그 상방에 위치 시킨 조합을 의치상의 강화에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

Fall-arrest system have been widely applied to provide a safe stop during fall incidents for occupational activities. This research object to evaluate the energy capacity of fall arrest shock energy absorber lanyard in relation to the used super fiber. In this work, shock energy absorber lanyard was prepared using high tenacity PET, high tenacity PET/P-aramid and high tenacity PET/UHMWPE, respectively. Dynamic load and static load tests based on the Korea fall protection equipment standard(Korea Occupational Safety & Health Agency standard 2013-13) were conducted. Maximum arrest force by dynamic load test of shock energy absorber showed below 6,000N. Also, static strength by static load test of lanyard and rope remains 15,000N and 22,000N for 1 min.

Mooring systems are among the most important elements employed to control the motion of floating offshore structures on the sea. Considering the use of polymer material, a new method is proposed to address the creep characteristics rather than the method of using a tension load cell for measuring the tension of the mooring line. This study uses a synthetic mooring rope made from a polymer material, which usually consists of three parts: center, eye, and splice, and which makes a joint for two successive ropes. We integrate the optical sensor into the synthetic mooring ropes to measure the rope tension. The different structure of the mooring line in the longitudinal direction can be used to measure the loads with the entire mooring configuration in series, which can be defined as SMART (Smart Mooring and Riser Truncation) mooring. To determine the characteristics of the basic SMART mooring, a SMART mooring with a diameter of 3 mm made of three different polymer materials is observed to change the wavelength that responds as the length changes. By performing the longitudinal tension experiment using three different SMART moorings, it was confirmed that there were linear wavelength changes in the response characteristics of the 3-mm-diameter SMART moorings. A 54-mm-diameter SMART mooring is produced to measure the response of longitudinal tension on the center, eye, and splice of the mooring, and a longitudinal tension of 100 t in step-by-step applied for the Maintained Test and Fatigue Cycle Test is conducted. By performing a longitudinal tension experiment, wavelength changes were detected in the center, eye, and splice position of the SMART moorings. The results obtained from each part of the installed sensors indicated a different strain measurement depending on the position of the SMART moorings. The variation of the strain measurement with the position was more than twice the result of the difference measurement, while the applied external load increased step-by-step. It appears that there is a correlation with an externally generated longitudinal tensional force depending on the cross-sectional area of each part of the SMART mooring.

The existing leg-rest for transmission line construction was established on the ground as a structure. As a result of that, it caused some problems such as, a tremendous forest damage, excessive construction costs and the long time of construction period. In order to solve these problems, we suggest the protective net for an air installation. It is a new method of construction which has a dielectric strength with a light-weight and high-strength. And it's not influenced by a geographical feature. This excellent method doesn't affect a forest and can reduce tremendously the construction cost and period.
