본 논문에서는 LNG 벙커링 바지에 대한 예인안정성을 평가하였다. 친환경 에너지원인 LNG(액화천연가스)의 전환을 위한 인프라로 LNG 벙커링 바지가 개발되고 있다. LNG 벙커링 바지는 예인줄에 연결되어 이동하는 부선의 형태이기 때문에 LNG 공급용 부선의 예인안정성의 확보는 LNG 벙커링 바지 뿐 만아니라 주변 항해 선박의 안전을 위해 매우 중요하다. LNG 벙커링 바지의 예인안정성을 초기설계 단계에서 추정하기 위해 예인시뮬레이션을 위한 수치코드를 개발하였다. 초기설계 단계에서 활용 가능하도록 운동방정식에는 조종수학그룹 모델이 적용되었고 조종미계수에는 경험식이 적용되었다. 개발된 수치코드의 유효성을 확인하기 위해 발표된 계산 및 모형시험 결과와 비교하였다. 개발된 수치코드를 이용하여 LNG 벙커링 바지의 선미 스케그 면적과 예인 위치의 변화에 따른 예인시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 수행된 시뮬레이션을 통해 설계된 선미 스케그 면적의 적정성을 확인하였다.

Reliable strength assessment of the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) cargo containment system under the sloshing impact load is very difficult task due to the complexity of the physics involved in, both in terms of the hydrodynamics and structural mechanics. Out of all those complexities, the proper selection of the design sloshing load which is applied to the structural model of the LNG cargo containment system, is one of the most challenging one due to its inherent randomness as well as the statistical analysis which is tightly linked to the design sloshing load selection. In this study, the response based strength assessment procedure of LNG cargo containment system has been developed and proposed as an alternative design methodology. Sloshing pressure time history, measured from the model test, is decomposed into wavelet basis function targeting the minimization of the number of the basis function together with the maximization of the numerical efficiency. Then the response of the structure is obtained using the finite element method under each wavelet basis function of different scale. Finally, the response of the structure under entire sloshing impact time history is rapidly calculated by synthesizing the structural response under wavelet basis function. Through this analysis, more realistic response of the system under sloshing impact pressure can be obtained without missing the details of pressure time history such as rising pattern, oscillation due to air entrapment and decay pattern and so on. The strength assessment of the cargo containment system is then performed based on the statistical analysis of the stress peaks selected out of the obtained stress time history.

Polyurethane foam has excellent mechanical strength and insulation performance, and has been adopted as an insulation material for $-163^{\circ}C$ liquefied natural gas carrier. In this study, Kevlar Polyurethane Foams(K-PUF) were synthesized by adding Kevlar pulp with excellent mechanical strength for the purpose of improving the performance of existing polyurethane foam. Since polyurethane foam has mechanical performance depending on the proportions of Kevlar pulp added, the mechanical strength of the K-PUF with ratios of fiber0.2wt.%, 0.4wt.%, 0.6wt.%, 0.8wt.% and 1.0wt.%) was evaluated. The compression tests were performed on the 4 different temperatures($20^{\circ}C$, $-50^{\circ}C$, $-110^{\circ}C$ and $-163^{\circ}C$) in consideration of the environmental characteristics as a cryogenic insulation used in LNG carrier. Besides, the effects of the fiber addition on polyurethane foam with closed cell structure were evaluated in a phenomenological approach through SEM analysis. All the results were compared to Neat-polyurethane foam. As a results, 0.8wt.% K-PUF showed the improved mechanical strength, and the addition of Kevlar pulp in a certain ratio improves the mechanical performance by enhancing the compression resistance.

Recently, the market of liquefied natural gas is growing in accordance with shale gas development and environmentally friendly policies. Also, LNG is in the spotlight as an alternative fuel to previously used fossil fuel and the fuel for the ship to meet emission standards which takes effected by IMO (International Maritime Organization). According to growth of LNG, LNG carriers needs are also expected to increase significantly. This study investigates low cycle fatigue (LCF) performance of 304L stainless steel weldments to investigate fatigue performance in plastic strain region. 304L stainless steel is known to have improved fatigue performance at cryogenic conditions. LCF behavior are investigated by a strain-controlled condition up to 1% strain range and conducted with three different thickness (3mm, 5mm, 10mm). Also, test were performed with three different strain ratio R such as R = -1, -0, 0.5, Finally, the fatigue design curve for 304L stainless steel weldments at room tem- perature are proposed. Considering all test conditions, it is shown that LCF performance have similar tendency regardless of thickness and strain ratio. LCF design curve of 304L stainless steel weldments are lower than 304L stainless steel base metal.

천연가스는 산업의 발전으로 인하여 수요가 계속 증가하고 있어 도입물량 부족 현상이 일어나 수급이 점차 불안정해질 것으로 예상된다. 액화천연가스 외에 파이프라인 천연가스 및 대체 천연가스등 다양한 형태의 가스 도입과 개발로 수요를 충당해야 할 필요성이 있다. 도입된 PNG의 성분과 농도를 정확하게 측정해야 한다. 이에 따른 천연가스 내에 있는 미량 성분인 탄화수소류($C_6-C_{10}$)의 정확한 측정이 요구되어 표준가스의 개발이 필수적이다. 이 연구에서 개발한 일차 표준물질에 대한 조성과 농도는 $10-30{\mu}mol/mol$의 헥산, 헵탄, 옥탄, 노난, 데칸이며 바탕가스는 메탄이다. 탄화수소류($C_6-C_{10}$)의 표준가스 제조는 각 성분 원료가스에 대한 순도분석이 완료된 가스를 ISO 6142에 근거하여 소급성이 있는 중량법으로 알루미늄 실린더에 제조하였다. 제조된 표준가스는 분석기로 표준가스간의 제조일치성, 실린더의 흡착성, 안정성 변화 및 불확도 평가를 하였다. 결과는 알루미늄 실린더에서 내부표면의 흡착 손실이 적고 장기 안정성이 매우 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 헥산, 헵탄, 옥탄, 노난, 데칸의 농도 $10-30{\mu}mol/mol$ 수준에서 불확도 0.79-1.63 %이내의 표준가스를 개발하였다.

Glass-reinforced polyurethane foam (R-PUF) is widely used as the primary and secondary insulation of Mark-III type liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo system. And, polyurethane foam (PUF) and polyisocyanurate foam (PIR) are often used for insulation of onshore structures or LNG storage and pipeline system. These polymeric foam materials are known for the characteristics that mechanical properties are dependent on strain rate and temperature. In this study, compression tests for R-PUF, PIR, and PUF were carried out for the estimation of mechanical behaviors under the cryogenic environment. The range of thermal condition was from room temperature to 110K and strain rates were $10^{-3}s^{-1}$ and $10^{-4}s^{-1}$. The test results were analyzed based on the conditions of strain-rate and temperature.

Membrane type Mark III cargo containment system (CCS) is considered in this study to investigate its strength capability under applied loads due to liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo. A rectangular plated structure supported by inner hull structure is exemplified from Mark III CCS according to classification society's guidance and it is assumed as multi-layered structure by stacking plywood, triplex, reinforced polyurethane (PU) foam and series of mastic upon inner hull structure. Commercially available general purpose finite element analysis package is used to have reliable FE models of Mark III CCS plate. The FE models and anisotropic failure criteria such as maximum stress, Hoffman, Hill, Tsai-Wu and Hashin taking into account the direction dependent material properties of Mark III CCS plate components and their material properties considering a wide variation of temperature due to the nature of LNG together form the strength analysis procedure of Mark III CCS plate. Strength capability of Mark III CCS plate is understood by its initial failure and post-initial failure states. Results are represented in terms of failure loads and locations when initial failure and post-initial failures are occurred respectively. From the results the basic design information of Mark III CCS plate is given.

Austenite stainless steel(ASS), aluminum alloy and nickel steel alloy are the most widely used in many cryogenic applications due to superior mechanical properties at low temperature. The Face-Centered Cubic(FCC) and Hexagonal Close-Packed(HCP) materials are used for the primary and secondary insulation barrier of Liquefied Natural Gas(LNG) carrier tank and various kinds of LNG applications currently. In this study, tensile tests of ASS, aluminum alloy and nickel steel alloy were carried out for the acquisition of quantitative mechanical properties under the cryogenic environment. The range of thermal condition was room temperature to $-163^{\circ}C$ and strain rate range was 0.00016/s to 0.01/s considering the dependencies of temperatures and strain rates. The comprehensive test data were analyzed in terms of the characteristics of mechanical behavior for the development of constitutive equation and its application.
