In view of the importance of material reduction because of the jump in oil and steel prices, structural design studies for lifting lugs were performed. Hundreds of thousands of such lifting lug structures are needed every year for ship construction. A direct design study was reviewed using the developed design system to increase the design efficiency and provide a way of directly inserting a designer's decisions into the design system process. In order to understand the design efficiency and convenience of a lug structure, parametric studies for prototype lug shapes were performed using the developed design system. From these design studies, various patterns of design parameters for the lug structure according to changes in the main plate length were examined. Based on these parametric study results, design guides were developed for more efficiently suggesting structural data for enormous lug structures. Additionally, a more detailed structural analysis through local strength evaluations will be performed to verify the efficiency of the optimum structural design for a lug structure.

In the view of the importance of material reduction due to the jump in oil and steel prices, an optimized structural system for lifting lugs was developed. Such a system is needed hundreds of thousands of times a year. A direct design process was added to this developed optimized system to increase the design efficiency and provide a way of directly inserting a designer's decisions into the design system process. In order to verify the system efficiency and convenience, several new prototype lug shapes were suggested using the developed system. From these research results, it was found that the slope of the main plate of the lug structure has a tendency to move from about 45 degrees to about 60 degrees and the design weight was reduced from an initial value of about 32kgf to about $15{\sim}19kg_f$ after the redesign. Based on these initial research results, an efficient reduction in steel weight was expected considering the enormous consumption of lug structures per year. Additionally, a more detail structural analysis through local strength evaluations will be performed to verify the efficiency of the optimum structural design for a lug structure.

Due to the rapid growth of ship building industry and increment of ship construction in Korea, several hundred thousand of lifting lugs per year, have been installed at the lifting positions of ship block and removed after finishing their function, therefore, appropriate design system for strength check or optimal design of each lug structure has been required in order to increase the capability of efficient design. In this study, design system of D-type lifting lug structure which is most popular and useful in shipyards, was developed for the purpose of initial design of lug structure. Developed system layout and graphic user interface for this design system based on the C++ language were explained step by step. Using this design system, more efficient performance of lug structural design will be expected on the windows of personal computer.

A basic study on the lifting lug design has performed through the rational and systematic process. In order to evaluate the proper design-load distribution around lug eye investigation of contact force between lifting lug and shackle pin is performed using non-linear parametric analysis idealized by gap element models. Gap element modeling and nonlinear analysis procedures are illustrated and discussed based on MSC/NASTRAN. Some analysis and design guides are suggested through the consideration of several important effects such as stress distribution pattern, circumferential contact force distribution along the lug eye face, loading share rate between lug main plate and doubler, effect of loading direction, relation between applied force and deflection and size effect of shackle pin radius. Additionally optimum design studies are performed and general trends according to the variation of design parameters are suggested.

Lifting lugs are frequently used in shipyard to transport and turn over blocks of ship and offshore structures. As the shipbuilding technology develops, blocks has become bigger and bigger, and block management technology takes a more important role in shipbuilding to enhance the productivity. For the sake of economic as well as safe design of lug structure, more rational design procedure based on the rigorous structural analysis is needed. This study is concerned with the optimum design of T type lug which is frequently used in shipyard. The optimum thickness of lug's main body is to be determined based on the results of non-linear strength analysis. As far as the present results for the present T type lugs having different capacity are concerned, it seems to be necessary to review the current design procedure of lug structure. The present design procedure can be extensively used in design of various types of lug structures used in shipyard.

In this paper, we proposed an optimal design for determining the shape of a lifting lug freely by applying a multivariate function to the D-type lug, which is commonly used in shipyards. We derived the optimal aspect ratio of the lug through structural analysis and analyzed the safety and behavior of the lug aspect ratio. As a result, two types of final candidates, both lighter than the existing lug weight, were suitable for the ratio. They were found to have the greatest force at an angle of 45 degrees when a load of 100 tons was imposed. When the horizontal and vertical feature ratio of the lug was 1:3, it showed excellent results in terms of safety rates while maintaining weight reduction and functional aspects.

Lifting lugs are frequently used in shipyard to transportate and turn over blocks. As the shipbuilding technology develops, blocks has become bigger and bigger, and block management technology takes a more important role in shipbuilding to enhance the productivity. For the sake of economic as well as safe design of lug structure, more rigorous analysis is needed. In this study in order to investigate the strength characteristics of two type of lug, that is, D and T type lugs, non-linear strength analysis has been carried out to compare the ultimate strength characteristics of two types of lug varying in-plane and out-of-plane loading directions. Based on the present numerical analysis results, it can be drawn that T type lug is superior to D type lug from view points of ultimate strength and deformation.

러그는 선박 및 해양구조물의 블록을 이동하거나 반전에 많이 사용되는 부품이다. 선박이나 해양구조물의 제작기술이 발전함에 따라 블록이 점차 대형화되고 있어, 생산성 향상을 위해 블록을 보다 효율적으로 다루는 기술에 대한 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 러그 구조의 안전하고 경제적인 설계를 위하여 비선형 구조해석 결과를 토대로 도출한 최종강도를 기준으로 한 보다 합리적인 설계과정이 필요하다. 본 연구는 조선소에서 자주 사용하는 T형 러그의 최적 구조설계를 다루고 있다. 본 연구에서의 T형 러그에 대한 최적 구조설계 결과는 충분한 구조적 안전성이 보장될 것으로 판단되고, 러그 용량별 최적 구조설계 결과의 중량 감소량에 어떤 규칙성을 발견할 수 없었는데, 이는, 현재의 설계과정에 대한 검토가 필요한 것으로 생각된다. 여기에서 제시한 비선형 구조해석에 기초한 최적 구조설계 과정은 향후 보다 다양한 경우의 러그 설계에 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

대형 강선의 선박건조 및 조립에 필수적인 블록 이송용 및 탑재용 러그가 국내 소요량이 년간 수십만개 정도이며 이들이 대형 선박블록에 부착되었다가 탑재 후 제거되어지고 있으나 이러한 기존의 러그 형상이 실제 하중에 비해 비합리적으로 설정되는 경우가 많아 이에 대한 적정설계의 개념으로 시스템화가 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 각 러그의 강도 혹은 안전율을 파악을 한다거나 적정 러그 구조 치수를 손쉽게 설계할 수 있는 설계시스템을 개인용 컴퓨터의 윈도우 환경 하에 개발하였다. 이를 위해 현재 대형 조선소에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 블록 탑재용 러그인 D형을 대상으로 러그 구조의 초기설계를 목적으로 간편하게 설계를 할 수 있는 탑재용 러그 구조의 설계 시스템의 GUI(Graphic Users Interface)를 구축하였고, 최적설계 및 파라메트릭 설계 그리고 강도평가의 3가지 부시스템을 개발하여 시스템에 장착하였으며 설계의 한 예를 제시하고 효용성을 입증하였다. 앞으로 이 개발 시스템을 이용하여 설계 담당자들이 개인용 컴퓨터의 윈도우 상에서 러그 구조설계를 효율적으로 수행할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, according to the increase of income and development of quality of life, the leisure industry has been developed. In particular, the interest of design and manufacture technology of leisure yacht has significantly increased. However, domestic market of leisure ships is currently in its initiating stage. So research and development for structural strength of leisure yacht need to be investigated. In this study, lug of yacht's mast which is known for a critical damage region is explicitly considered. This paper deals with the estimation of stress concentration factors (SCFs) for lug of yacht's mast depending on dimensions of lug using hot spot stress. Also, SCF formulae is suggested using parametric study.
