  • The current paper deals with the safety of fishing vessels, which needs more speculations than other ship types. The characteristics of accidents of fishing vessels are rather different compared with other commercial vessels. In the context, the methodology of the formal safety assessment, one of the important issues in the maritime world to enhance the safety of marine vehicles, are reviewed and consulted along with other methodologies to see its applicability for fishing vessels. It is anticipated that further effective measures for better safety of fishing vessels can be identified including due considerations of the aspect of human elements, i.e. cultural environment.

  • In this study, it is surveyed and analyzed under the condition of developing GPS receiver that the present status of use and the precision of GPS receiver installed in naval vessels. Throughout interview and questionnaire with the workers in naval vessels, reliability and utilization of GPS receiver are verified. In conclusion, it is suggested that the development of GPS receiver system as well as navigation methods in naval vessels. The result of this study is as follows. Though the workers in naval vessels regard the accuracy of GPS receiver position as the fix by geographical navigation method. However, it is confirmed that its practical usage is when it is difficult to obtain the fix by geographical navigation method or R/D position or for verification. The suggested plans to develop the navigation methods from naval vessels standpoint are designing a parallel systems and introducing the GPS receiver system that functions well and is linked to the electronic navigation chart.

  • In this paper, Radar cross section (RCS) calculations of advanced naval vessels model with RCS reduction methods are simulated and RCS results are discussed. Especially, this paper are mainly focusing on the facts influencing on RCS, the ways minimizing RCS and material characteristics of RCS changing-rate. RCS analysis results are given for a DDG-1000 type advanced naval vessels, which show that as the elevation angle increased 10 degree, the mean RCS value increased 23.91 dBsm. Also, as the superstructure angle increased 6 degree, the mean RCS value reduced 1.27 dBsm. Finally, the radar absorbing material attachment at the front and back superstructure have been reduced 2.27 dBsm in terms of mean RCS value.

  • Approximately 89% of all capsizing accidents involve small vessels, and despite their relatively high accident rates, small vessels are not subject to ship stability regulations. Small vessels, where the provision of essential basic design documents for stability calculations is omitted, face challenges in directly calculating their stability. In this study, considering that the majority of domestic coastal small vessels are of the Chine-type design, the goal is to establish the major hull form characteristic data of vessels, which can be identified from design documents such as the general arrangement drawing, as input data. Through the application of a deep learning approach, specifically a multilayer neural network structure, we aim to infer hydrostatic curves, operational draft ranges, and more. The ultimate goal is to confirm the possibility of directly calculating the initial stability of small vessels.

  • Naval vessels are not regulated by the class rules, but by the special regulations. This study introduces the concept and characteristics of the regulations of U.S. Navy which has been the most reliable standards in design of naval vessels in Korea, and intends to help designers to comprehend the effect of each regulation on design results. Also, an optimum structural design method combined with the structural analysis theory is proposed for naval vessels following the regulations of U.S. Navy and is applied to the design of a naval vessel. After application of the optimum design method, its validity is shown and an optimum design of midship section is obtained. In addition, the optimum spaces or longitudinals and transverse web frames are found and the effect of main design variables can be investigated.

  • Survivability of naval vessels is defined as the ability to perform functions and missions in a combat environment. Survivability has close relationship with the spatial layout of naval vessels. In order to maximize survivability, it must be considered from the early stage of design. However the existing concept of survivability was intended to be applied to unit vessels. So it was not suitable for assessment of spatial layout results at the early stage of design. In this paper, a simplified assessment method which can evaluate the spatial layout considering the survivability in the early stage of design has been proposed. For this, assessment layers were defined on survivability components such as susceptibility, vulnerability, and recoverability. Assessment layers of each component were overlapped to deduce a survivability layer of spatial layout alternatives. In addition, the proposed method and optimization algorithm were used to derive optimal spatial layout alternatives considering survivability.

  • The Chosun Dynasty established and implemented measures to prevent Japanese invasion into the southern coast. To this end, the number of naval vessels and the number of ships were increased, and a shipyard(船所) was constructed to protect the safety of the vessels. The shipyard is a port facility where military vessels are anchored and repaired, as well as public facilities that are needed for military training on public and land, as well as facilities for storing supplies and equipment needed for ships on land and defense at the port entrance. Despite being such an important facility for national defense, Shipyard has not been noticed. Studies have shown that the position of shipyard is divided into the riverside type and the riverbank type, which is due to the topographical features of Korea. The repair cycle of naval vessels, the carrying out of Yeonhun(prevent the water from decaying the part of the ship, a raw tree was burned to smoke) and the place of sea training also affected the construction of the Gul River(掘江). The space structure of shipyard is divided into port entry facilities for monitoring and controlling at the entrance to the harbor, border facilities for folding and repairing military vessels, and land facilities for holding land exercises and administrative work of military vessels and military equipment.

  • Structural reliability of electrical panels installed in naval vessels is of critical importance from structural performance viewpoint. The electrical panels may be exposed to vibration and fatigue loadings from internal and external sources as well as wave loadings which result into a crack and fracture due to the decrease of fatigue strength. It is also well known that welded joints including brackets within steel structures .such as vessels and bridges are vulnerable against such repeated loadings. This study introduces a preliminary result of the optimized shape of frame bracket consisting of electrical panels in navel vessels against fatigue loading and their fatigue life at brackets of electrical panels by means of hot spot stress and structural stress methods.
