This paper presents the structural analysis of the pressure vessels in the unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) under developing at KORDi, which consists of a ROV, an AUV and a launcher at 6000 m depth in the ocean. Analytical, linear and nonlinear stress and buckling analysis of cylindrical pressure vessels using FEM (ANSYS) are performed to verify the safety of the current design.

Structural reliability of electrical panels installed in naval vessels is of critical importance from structural performance viewpoint. The panels may be exposed to vibration and fatigue loadings from internal and external sources and wave loading which cause fatigue cracking. In this study, common methods such as burr grinding and post weld heat treatment (PWHT), for the fatigue strength improvement of weldments are investigated. Burr grinding is carried out using a electric grinder in order to remove surface defects and improve the weld bead profile. And also PWHT is carried out for the purpose of removing residual. The effectiveness of the two post treatment methods is evaluated in terms of fatigue strength improvement of welded structures.

The naval surface vessels, which were often exposed to harsh marine environment, tended to be corrosive due to military operations on various sea-areas and courses. Although R.O.K Navy applied various methods to protect further corrosion, the hull corrosion occurred due to cavitation were found on the naval surface vessels at regular and occasional docking. Hull corrosion was a critical factor directly to affect the lifetime of ships and their operational capabilities adversely. In this paper, EH 2350, which was the main anticorrosion paint used by R.O.K. Navy, was compared with DuraTough DL by used by the U.S Navy to collect materials related to anti-corrosion paint. In addition, the paint compatibility verification was conducted through wear abrasion test. Assuming that it was exposed to sea-environment various both abrasion cycle and weight for objective verification. by varying both the abrasion cycles and weights. In this study, the reliability of the EH 2350 conformity, which was used in Naval surface vessels, was secured.

In this study, a plastic hardening constitutive equation for steels of polar class vessels at low temperature is proposed. The equation was derived using the experimental data obtained from tensile tests at room and low temperatures. Tensile tests at low temperature are both costly and time consuming because an expensive cold chamber is necessary and it takes too much time to cool down a specimen to set temperature. Using the proposed plastic hardening constitutive equation the plastic hardening characteristics of steels for polar class vessels at low temperature can be easily predicted from the tensile test results at room temperature.

Ice resistance estimation equations based on model tests and full-scale sea trial data from many previous research articles are studied. Measured ice resistance data and its empirical/semi-empirical estimation equations are summarized in common format and are compared with each other, considering three ship categories, i.e, icebreakers, tug/supply vessels, ice-strengthened cargo vessels. The most suitable estimation methods or prediction equations are recommended based on this ice resistance data analysis.

This paper are mainly focusing on the facts influencing on RCS reductions, appling radar absorbing materials by using RCS contributions of elements and appling a metamaterials which is high-tech radar absorbing materials. RCS analysis results are given for a simplified ship model, with radar absorbing materials and metamaterials cause RCS reduction in terms of mean values.

In this paper, one of the widely-used ice resistance prediction methods, introduced by Spencer(1992) of the Institute for Ocean Technology, Canada, is reviewed. Spencer's component-based scaling system for ship-ice model tests is analysed to estimate the ice resistance of various types of icebreaking vessels (Canadian MV Arctic, Terry Fox, R-Class icebreaker, US icebreakers Polar Star and Healy, Russian SA-15 cargo ships, Japanese PM Teshio and a model ship). The general form and the non-dimensional coefficients in ice resistance prediction formula are obtained using the published ice model test and full-scale sea trial data. The applicability of Spencer's method on R-Class icebreaker is discussed to estimate ice resistance for the larger icebreaking cargo vessels. Additional parameters to account for the difference in hull forms of icebreakers and cargo vessels are recommended to be included in the Spencer's original ice resistance prediction formula.

One of the concerns that arise during navigation in ice-covered waters is the magnitude of ice loads encountered by ships. However, the accurate estimation of ice loads still remains as a rather difficult task in the design of icebreaking vessels. This paper focuses on the development of simple ice load prediction formulas for the icebreaking cargo vessels. The maximum ice loads are expected from unbroken ice sheet and these loads are most likely to be concentrated at the bow area. Published ice load data for icebreaking vessels, from the model tests and also from full-scale sea trials, are collected and then several ice load prediction formulas are compared with these data. Finally, based on collected data, a semi-empirical ice load prediction formula is recommended for the icebreaking cargo vessels.

This paper explains environmental tests of vessel-launched missiles, verifying if a fully assembled missile performs properly from disturbance on delivery by vehicles or naval vessels. We also have operated vibration tests by ground and naval transportation as well as shock tests by naval transportation before firing. The environmental tests have adopted Military Standard Specification and confirmed missile's reliability by performance tests, followed by missile's development. However, this significant testing which have meaning was dong by the missile's body and not with parts.

In this paper ALPS/ISUM will be used to analyze the ultimate strength of four ships under vertical moment. Two of the ships are commercial vessels and the other two are cruisers. A procedure is also developed to determine the ultimate strength of the four vessels under combined vertical and horizontal moments. A simple analytical expression for an interaction relation under combined moments is proposed based on the results obtained for the four ships and the earlier work.
