The manoeuvrability of a ship with an unwanted heel angle due to a maritime accident is changed from the original characteristics. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively investigate the change in the manoeuvring performance of a twin-screw ship under various hee angles and speed conditions. A series of free running model test campaigns were performed in the Ocean Engineering Basin of Korea Research Institute of Ships & Ocean Engineering (KRISO) for a twin-screw car ferry vessel. Turning circle test and zig-zag 10/10 and 20/20 tests were carried out on the heel angles of 0, -10, and -19.5 degrees. In addition, two-speed conditions were considered to understand the effect of ship speed. In order to examine the effect of the bilge keel, a heel angle of -22 degree where the bilge keel is exposed outside the water surface, was considered. Finally, the change of manoeuvring characteristics according to the heel angle for a twin-screw and a single-screw vessel is discussed.

A method for quantifying the adaptability of ship maneuver scenarios for data-driven modeling of ship dynamics is developed based on the principal component analysis. A random maneuver scenario is suggested as a reference for ship dynamics, which can obtain the converged principal components of ship dynamics features by the Monte Carlo simulation. Principal components of conventional maneuver scenarios defined by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) are compared to that of the random maneuver. A conventional ship dynamics model for a container carrier vessel for four degrees of freedom dynamics is introduced to simulate the random and IMO maneuver scenarios. It is confirmed that the IMO tests follow the tendency of random maneuver scenario in terms of execution time and adaptability.

The aim of this study was to investigate the manoeuvrability of a ship in different Center of Gravity (CG) conditions. Free Running Model Tests (FRMT), such as 35°turning circle tests, 20/20 zigzag manoeuvring tests, and 10/10 zigzag manoeuvring tests, were conducted in three GM and three trim conditions with 1/65.83 scaled KRISO Container Ship (KCS). The test results indicated that KCS in the lower GM condition and the trim by bow condition showed reduced advance and tactical diameter in turning circle tests and increased overshoot angles in zigzag tests, and those manoeuvring indices were strongly related with roll angle. In addition, sensitivity indices for three-axis CG position were suggested with prior research, and it showed that y-axis CG position significantly affected manoeuvrability of KCS due to the low GM. Therefore, in the case of KCS, it is evident that the roll angle during manoeuvre is closely related with manoeuvring indices.

Predicting ship manoeuvrability is attracting widespread interest in the field of analyzing maritime accident to simulate a highly accurate track of a ship in abnormal accident situations. This study investigated the manoeuvrability of a ship in abnormally heeled condition. Free Running Model Tests (FRMT) with 1/65.83 scaled KCS (KRISO container ship) were conducted in three heeled conditions; $35^{\circ}$ turning circle tests and 20/20 zigzag manoeuvring tests were conducted in $0^{\circ}$, $-10^{\circ}$, and $-20^{\circ}$ conditions. The test results showed that the heeled to port condition significantly affected starboard turning and zigzag characteristics; the tactical diameters in the turning circle tests decreased, and the first overshoot angles in the zigzag tests increased when the ship was in the larger heeled condition. These results indicate that the roll angle of the ship considerably affects yaw rate and speed decrease of the ship. The turning and zigzag indices from trajectory and navigation data in the study were provided for benchmark data sets.

The present work develops a method of evaluating thrust deduction and wake for different loads of the propeller using the concerted application of the theoretical tools and experimental techniques. It also shows the applicability of the new method to the design of optimum hull form. Firstly, the problem of hull-propeller interaction was analyzed in terms of inviscid as well as viscous components of the thrust deduction and wake. The wavemaking resistance of a hull and propeller were mathematically represented by sources on the hull surface and sink on the propeller plane, respectively. The strength of sink was determined by utilizing the radial distributions of propeller load and nominal wake. The resistance increment due to a propeller and the axial perturbation flow induced by the hull in the propeller plane were calculated. Especially, the inviscid component of the thrust deduction was calculated by subtraction the wavemaking resistance of a bare hull, the wavemaking resistance of a free-running propeller and the augmentation of propeller resistance due to hull action from the wavemaking resistance of the hull with a propeller. The viscous components of the thrust deduction and wake were estimated as functions of propeller load which were established by the propeller load varying test after deduction the calculated inviscid components. Secondly, an analysis method of powering performance was developed based on the potential theory and the propeller load varying test. The hybrid method estimates the thrust deduction, wake and propeller open-water efficiency for different propeller load. This method can be utilized in the analysis of powering performance for the propeller load variation such as the added resistance due to hull surface roughness, the added resistance due to wind, etc. Finally, the hybrid method was applied to the optimum design of hull form. A series of afterbody shapes was obtained by systematically varying the waterplane and section shapes of a parent afterbody without changing the principal dimensions, block coefficient and prismatic coefficient. From the comparison of the predicted results such as wavemaking resistance, thrust deduction, wake and delivered power, an optimum hull form was obtained. The delivered power of the optimized hull form was reduced by 5.7% which was confirmed by model tests. Also the predicted delivered power by the hybrid method shows fairly good agreement with the test result. It is therefore considered that the new analysis method of powering performance can be utilized as a practical tool for the design of optimum hull form as for the analysis of powering performance for the propeller load variation in the preliminary design stage.

상선에 비해 잦은 변침을 하고 어획물로 인한 중량 및 무게중심의 변화와 같은 다양한 운항조건을 가진 어선의 경우, 조종성능은 선박 운항 시에 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 소형 어선의 사고는 2022년 기준 전체 해상 사고의 약 60%를 차지하며, 이는 부족한 조종성능으로 인한 충돌과 좌초 사고가 주요 원인이다. 특히 10톤 미만의 소형선박에서 발생한 사고는 전체 사고의 약 65%를 차지하는데, 소형 어선의 조종성능 관련 기준이 부재하여 이를 정확히 평가하기엔 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 4.99톤급 소형 어선을 대상선으로 선정하여 3D-CAD로 모델링 한 후, 상용 수치해석 프로그램인 STAR-CCM+를 활용하여 선박의 조종운동 시뮬레이션 환경을 구축하였다. 이를 바탕으로 다양한 표준재화상태와 무게중심을 고려하여 10° / 10° 및 20° / 20° zigzag test와 35° turning test를 수행하였고, 선체 중량이 증가함에 따라 변침성능이 감소하고 선회성능이 향상되는 경향을 분석하였다. 그 중, 만재출항과 부분만재입항 상태에서는 상대적으로 선회성능이 부족한 결과를 확인하였다. 이를 바탕으로 소형선박의 안전한 운항을 위한 표준재화상태와 무게중심을 고려한 조종성능의 평가 및 그에 상응하는 표준화된 조종성능 평가 기준의 필요성을 제시하였다. 또한, 본 연구의 조종성능 평가 결과가 소형선박의 조종성능 평가 기준 선정을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
