This research is the result on calculating the logical speed limit through certain process which some elements must be considered on selecting the speed limit of harbour and waterway. The suggested speed limit select model on this research is processed from 1~6 steps by forming a professional group of experts. Each step has its information which 1st step(water division), 2nd step(selecting the model vessel and vessel applied with speed limit.), 3rd step(selecting the maximum and minimum speed range on each section), 4th step(evaluation on the safeness of traffic), 5th step(suggesting the appropriate speed limit), 6th step(execution and evaluation.). The appropriate speed limit was decided on consideration of the safety of maritime traffic on the range of the maximum speed and the minimum speed. This model was used to derive the appropriate speed limit on the harbour water and Busan harbour entrance waterway. As the result, the harbour water was calculated to be 6.9 knots, the appropriate speed limit of Busan entrance harbour was 9.3 knots. The present calculation of the speed limit on the approaching channel area is 10 knots, inner harbour area is 7 knots, which are similar to the result of the speed limit. This research is the first research on selecting the speed limit model and has its limits on finding the perfect speed limit result. More detailed standards on the safeness of traffic evaluation must be found and additional study is necessary on discriminating consideration of the elements. This research has its value which it provides instances of aboard cases on guidelines of selecting the speed limit.

Ulsan Port is in the situation which the harbour limit and anchorages are less narrow than other trading ports and the occurrence probability of marine accidents is high due to heavy marine traffic Especially, the shortage of anchorages will become worse in case that the number of inbound and outbound vessels increases according to the development of Ulsan New Port. We will find and suggest the plan to enlarge the harbour limit essentially needed to expand anchorages in this research The reasonable type of harbour limit which is based on the survey by a group of experts, was determined after the decision of the range of harbour limit to accommodate the relevant anchorages.

Ulsan Port is the biggest base port for liquid cargoes in Korea and is pushing in earnest for the development of the 'Ulsan New Port' and 'Northeast Asia Oil-Hub' to prepare for continuous shipment growth. However, Ulsan is in the situation which the harbour limit and anchorages are narrower than other trading ports and the occurrence probability of marine accidents is very high due to heavy marine traffic. We will find and suggest the plan to enlarge the harbour limit essentially needed to expand anchorages considering the geomorphological features of Ulsan and the volume of marine traffic in this research. For the enlargement of harbour limit needed to expand anchorages, the anchorage area needed for Ulsan New Port was calculated after the quantitative analysis of enlargement range through the mutual comparison of the area of harbour limit and anchorages with berths and the volume of marine traffic. The reasonable type of harbour limit, which is based on the survey by a group of experts, was also determined after the decision of the range of harbour limit to accommodate the relevant anchorages.

305 samples of alluvial deposit in inland and harbour districts were selected and consolidation charateristics of the alluvium were put in order statiscally. The correlations between them were as follows. 1. The relationships between LL(liguid limit) and Cc (compression index) were explained as Cc=0. 03(LL-21. 7) in case of inland district soil and as Cc=0. 019(LL-19) in case of harbour district soil. As compared with formular proposed by Skernpton, the gradient of this linear line was slight steep. 2. The relationships between PI(plastic index) and Cc were explained as Cc=0. 063 PI-0. 52 in case of inland district soil and Cc=0. 043 PI-0. 31 in case of harbour district soil. 3. As void ratio and natural moisture content were increased, Cc was increased, and as wet density was increased, Cc was decreased with a gentle curve. 4. As LL and P1 increased, mv(coefficient of volume compressibility) was increased but if LL and P1 was increased beyond a certain extend, mv has a tendency of constant value, that is, mv show a tendency to take constant value in the very soft clay. and mv in P=2. 5kg/cm$^2$ was about l${\times}$ l0-$^1$cm$^2$/kg in case of land district soil and 6x 10-$^1$crn$^2$/kg in case of harbour district soil lower than that in P=0. 25kg/crn2. 5. Cv(coefficient of consolidation) was a tendency to decrease with a gentle curve as LL was increased, and Cv in P=0. 25kg/crn2 was about 3x l0-$^1$crn$^2$/min larger than that in P=2. 5kg/crn$^2$. 6. Relationships between Py(pre-consolidation pressure) which is included over consolidation soil and ∑r1h(effective over-burden pressure) were explained as Py=l. 12 ∑r'h in case of land district soil and as Py=l. l5∑r'h in case of harbour district soil. 7. Some of the properties show good correlations between them, practical and effective applications of these correlations are expected in the planning and excution of soil investigation and also in the evaluation of the results.

Whether over taking or parallel sailing of two or more vessels is allowable on marine traffic route or not, the traffic congestion due to traffic volume has to be evaluated separately. In Gaduk-sudo, overtaking or parallel sailing is so allowable that the Bumper Model is introduced to evaluated the traffic congestion. But the channels within the habour limit such as the route of Ulsan New Port are so prohibited overtaking or parallel sailing that the traffic congestion has to be evaluated by using theoretical traffic capacity or by traffic simulation. In this paper, the congestion of Southern New Port and Mipo Port was evaluated the congestion by using theoretical traffic capacity and the other area of Ulsan Port by traffic simulation. The incresed traffic volumes on Ulsan Channels according to Ulsan New Port Development in 2011 were evaluated to have no effect with the traffic congestion.

When sea going vessel approaches her destination port, marine traffic density is increased, especially, the marine traffic is concentrated in the entrance channel and the fairway in the inner harbour is more narrow. Therefore, special navigational rules for preventing collision at sea is needed in the inner harbour. Hence there are the rules in The Public Order in Open Port Act in Korea But, in the case of conflict of navigational rule concerned, it is possible to be raised a question that which rule shall be applied preferentially. Also, it is necessary to understand the exact meaning of the navigational rules in The Public Order in Open Port Act. Because the misunderstanding of the rule is caused the collision Therefore, this paper aims to discuss the exact meaning of the navigational rule concerned in the view of legal basis and suggest the principles for a proper application of it.

This research is the first research on developing the speed limit select model and also it is the result of the research on the importance of each element and consideration factors when selecting the speed limit. For the consideration factor discrimination and calculation of the importance, the delphi method and AHP method was used. The delphi survey was processed through third round survey, 5 high consideration factor(Level 1) and 23 low consideration factor(Level 2) was discriminated. During the process of the third delphi survey, when the CVR cost was in the range between 0.4~1.0 it was treated as the consideration factor when selecting the speed limit and less than 0.4 cost was eliminated. In the process of the second delphi survey, 33 consideration factors were discriminated but was reordered into 23 categories through the third survey. Based on the 23 categories earned through the third delphi analysis, the AHP survey was processed. The result of the AHP survey was that out of the importance of the 5 high consideration factor(Level 1), the traffic condition was evaluated as the number one factor and the vessel condition, waterway condition, environment condition, supporting condition and etc. conditions were evaluated following the traffic condition. Out of the 23 low consideration factor(Level 2) consideration, the visibility was evaluated to be the first important and the performance of the vessel steering, objective factors within the harbor, amount of traffic and density, distance between the passing vessel, speed of the steering capacity and tidal current were the following evaluated factors.

The marine traffic accidents go on increasing owing to the increment of marine traffic capacity, and the solutions about these matters are vigorously considering by many researchers. When the watch officer navigates to the narrow channel, bend or an area obscured by an intervening obstruction and around the harbour limit he must follow the planned track. The watch officer can safely navigate along the course laid down only when he alters his course in advance before the new course distance earlier than the course alternation point. If we call this point to be changed in advance a turning bearing, the turning bearing is decided according to the direction and the range from the clearing objects. The turning bearing helps the watch officer to determine whether the ship is at wheel-over position or not. The author in this paper suggest how to make and use a curve graph which is decided according to the direction and the distance from the clearing objects. If the watch officer utilize this curve graph he can judge swiftly and precisely whether his ship is at the wheel - over position or not.

The contents of inorganic conservative constituents in the downstream water were determined in spring tides of every month from May 1977 to April 1978 at eight stations of Nagdong River. Samples were taken at the intervals of one or two hours from 7 a. m. to 7 p. m. at each station. Annual ranges and means of the chemical constituents over all the stations except station one, Kupo, ate as follows: pH 6.4-9.3, 7.7; electrical conductivity $0.085-0.345\times10^3\;\mu\mho/cm,\;0.196\times10^3\;\mu\mho/cm;$ chloride 5.8-50.0ppm, 17.7ppm: fluoride ND-0.19 ppm, 0.06 ppm: sulfate 5.5-41.1 ppm, 20.7 ppm; calcium 6-26 ppm, 17 ppm; magnesium 2.0-12.8 ppm, 5.1 ppm; sodium 7-26 ppm, 13 ppm; potassium 1.4-3.8 pprn, 2.3 ppm respectively. The seasonal variations of contents of the chemical constituents were not large and showed nearly definite values at all the stations except station one, Kupo. At station one, seasonal variations were large and the contents were excessively high due to inflow of seawater compared with other stations. The values over 50 ppm in chloride were not determined during the determination period at Mul Geum where the intake station for Busan city water is located. Most constituents except pH and fluoride were over the criteria for drinking water at Kupo, while at other stations only pH value was exceeded the upper limit of the criterion especially in summer period. The pH values tended to increase in the afternoon when water temperature was high. The chloride concentration was shown the highest value at station one, Kupo, with about 2 hours delay after high water of Busan harbour and 3-3.5 hours at Mul Geum.
