To evaluate manoeuvring performance of merchant ships, the mathematical modeling group (MMG) or computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are used. However, it is difficult to use the MMG to evaluate the manoeuvring performance of fishing vessels, thus research using CFD simulations is necessary. Also, since the course-changing and turning ability is crucial in fishing operations, a rudder design suitable for fishing vessels is necessary. This study designs a rudder using National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) airfoil sections and evaluates its manoeuvring performance. A CFD model is used to evaluate the manoeuvring performance of the fishing vessel, and turning and zig-zag tests are conducted. The effectiveness of using CFD simulations based on Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations to assess the manoeuvring performance of fishing vessels was validated. No significant difference was found in the manoeuvring performance for hull forms and rudder designs for course-changing ability. However, the original hull form showed superior turning performance. Among five rudders with varying aspect ratios and shapes, the rudder with 5.5% aspect ratio had the best turning performance. Regarding the rudder design for fishing vessels, NACA airfoil was employed, and a rudder aspect ratio of 5.5% based on the immersed hull side area is recommended.

Ship's hydrodynamic coefficients in manoeuvring equations are generally derived by captive model tests or numerical calculations. Empirical formulas have been also proposed in some previous researches, which were useful for practical predictions of hydrodynamic coefficients of a ship by using main dimensions only. In this study, ship's hydrodynamic coefficients based on empirical formulas were optimized by using its free running test data. Eight manoeuvring performance indices including steady turning radius, reach in zig-zag as well as well-known IMO criteria indices are selected in order to compare simulation results with free runs effectively. Sensitivities of hydrodynamic coefficients on manoeuvring performance indices are analyzed. And hydrodynamic coefficients are tuned within fixed bounds in order of sensitivity so that they are tuned as little as possible. Linear and nonlinear coefficients are successively tuned by using zig-zag and turning performance indices. Trajectories and velocity components by simulations with tuned hydrodynamic coefficients are in good agreements with free running tests. Tuned coefficients are also compared with coefficients by captive model tests or RANS calculations in other previous researches, and the magnitudes and signs of tunes are discussed.

In the present trends at which vessels would be supersizedly designed for adapting special cargoes in order for effective controls of logistics in marine transportation, it brings poor manoeuvrability of ships and makes environmental or economical loss seriously due to accidents of a large scale at sea. International Maritime Organization adopted manoeuvring standards and also recommended manoeuvring booklets for ship operators recently. We attempted to find variation of hydrodynamic derivatives when a bare hull was fitted with propeller and rudder, or propeller only by captive model test in the circulating water channel. On comparing experimental results with theoretical values derived from equations, almost same tenden-cies were found at hull-propeller-rudder and hull-propeller situations. Interactions with rudder displayed well at large drift angles.

The accuracy of estimates of hydrodynamic coefficients can be increased by using sensitivity-maximizing inputs. In this study, sensitivity-maximizing actuator commands of a submersible, which are sequences of bang-bang type commands, were obtained using Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization technique. By comparing the total sensitivity values, deduced actuator inputs were found to be superior to the other sea trials. Based on the sensitivity distribution of conventional sea trials and sensitivity distribution results through deduced input scenario a review of submersibles' manoeuvring equations of motion was conducted .

선박이 항만이나 운하 내에서 이동할 경우 일반적으로 예인선의 도움을 받아 운항하게 된다. 근래에 해상 물동량이 증가하면서 항만이나 운하 등지의 해상 교통이 복잡해지고 해난 사고 발생 가능성이 높아지는 추세이다. 따라서 예인선 및 부선의 조종 성능을 파악하여 전체 예부선 시스템의 운항 안정성을 확보할 필요가 있다. 예부선 시스템은 크게 예인선, 부선, 그리고 예인선과 부선을 연결하는 예인줄의 세 가지 요소로 구성된다. 본 연구에서는 예인선, 부선, 예인줄 각각의 동역학적 특성이 반영된 운동 방정식을 수식화하였다. 그리고 예인선의 수학 모형을 확립하기 위한 구속 모형 시험의 종류 및 범위에 대하여 논한다.

This paper describes parameter identification techniques formulated for the estimation of maneuvering coefficients of a submerged body. The first part of this paper is concerned with the identifiability of the system parameters. The relationship between a stochastic linear time-invariant system and the equivalent dynamic system is investigated. The second is concerned with the development of the numerically stable identification technique. Two identification techniques are tested; one is the ma7mum likelihood (ML) methods using the Holder & Mead simplex search method and using the modified Newton-Raphson method, and the other is the modified extended Kalman filter (MEKF) method with a square-root algorithm, which can improve the numerical accuracy of the extended Kalman filter. As a results, it is said that the equations of motion for a submerged body have higher probability to generate simultaneous drift phenomenon compared to general state equations and only the ML method using the Holder & Mead simplex search method and the MEKF method with a square-root algorithm gives acceptable results.

For Underwater vehicles, Unwanted roll excursions are inevitable as they are caused by induced propeller torque, disturbances, and banking motion during turns. To estimate the manoeuvring performance of underwater vehicle, it is necessary to obtain the roll coefficient of body. This paper was covered estimation of roll coefficient of underwater vehicle using STAR-CCM+, commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) code. The RANS equations for incompressible fluid flows was solved numerically by using a finite volume method. An MRF(Moving Reference Frame) Method was Also adopted for rotations of body. For the validation, the flow around a DARPA SUBOFF bare hull model was simulated and good agreement with experiments was obtained. And Pure roll coefficients were calculated and campared with the experimental data which were presented by Seoul National University. Finally, an underwater vehicle model with propeller was simulated and analyzed for estimation of roll coefficient variation caused by induced propeller torque.

In this study, we investigate surge force, heave force, and pitch moment, which are vertical plane hydrodynamics acting on Manta-type unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), using a model test and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. Assessing the maneuvering hydrodynamic characteristic of an underwater glider in the initial design stage is crucial. Although a model test is the best approach for obtaining the maneuvering hydrodynamic derivatives for underwater vehicles, numerical methods, such as Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, have been used owing to their efficiency in terms of time and cost. Therefore, we conducted an RANS-based CFD calculation and a model test for Manta-type UUVs. In addition, we conducted a validation study through a comparison with a model test conducted at a circular water channel (CWC) in Korea Maritime & Ocean University Furthermore, two RANS solvers (Star-CCM+ and OpenFOAM) were used and compared. Finally, the maneuvering hydrodynamic forces obtained from the static drift and resistance tests for a Manta-type UUV were presented.

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 형태이기때문에 LNG 벙커링 바지의 예인안정성의 확보는 LNG 벙커링 바지 뿐만아니라 주변 항해 선박의 안전을 위해 매우 중요하다. LNG 벙커링 바지의 예인안정성을 초기 설계단계에서 추정하기 위해서 예인시뮬레이션을 위한 수치코드를 개발하였다. 초기설계단계에서 활용 가능하도록 운동방정식에는 조종수학그룹(MMG)모델이 적용되었고 조종미계수에는 경험식이 적용되었다. 개발된 수치코드의 유효성을 확인하기 위해 발표된 계산 및 모형시험의 결과와 비교하였다. 개발된 수치코드를 이용하여 LNG 벙커링 바지의 선미 스케그 유무에 따른 예인시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 수행된 시뮬레이션을 통해 설계된 선미 스케그 면적의 적정성을 확인하였다.
