  • Seonhwa Bongsa Goryeodogyeong written by Seogeung of Song nationality is the most vivid record of sailing in the West Sea of Goryeo. Seogeung who visited Goryeo on a ship sailed from Heuksando to Byeokrando using a fire signal of the islands area. Fire signal was installed in the Goryeo area, was located nearby the sea route at that time, and was marked by smoke during the day and torched at night so that the navigators could identify it 24 hours. In addition, it was installed at the top of the mountain so that the navigators could easily identify it from a distance. Goryeo fire signal is satisfied by qualification of modern aids to navigation and Visual range is checked about 29-39 miles, Luminous intensity of fire signal estimates to approximately 9,105-168,610cd. Therefore, the fire signal of Goryeo was very easy to use and was highly reliable as operated by the nation and its role in aiding navigations facility as an essential for safe navigation.

  • Even if only two ships are encountered, a collision may occur due to the mistaken judgment of the positional relationship. In other words, if an officer does not know a target ship's intention, there is always a risk of collision. In this paper, the experiments are conducted to investigate how the intention affects the action of collision avoidance in cooperative and non-cooperative situations. In non-cooperative situation, each ship chooses a course that minimizes costs based on the current situation. That is, it always performs a selfish selection. In a cooperative situation, the information is exchanged with a target ship and a course is selected based on this information. Each ship uses the Distributed Stochastic Search Algorithm so that a next-intended course can be selected by a certain probability and determines the course. In the experimental method, four virtual ships are set up to analyze the action of collision avoidance. Then, using the actual AIS data of eight ships in the strait of Dover, I compared and analyzed the action of collision avoidance in cooperative and non-cooperative situations. As a result of the experiment, the ships showed smooth trajectories in the cooperative situation, but the ship in the non-cooperative situation made frequent big changes to avoid a collision. In the case of the experiment using four ships, there was no collision in the cooperative situation regardless of the size of the safety domain, but a collision occurred between the ships when the size of the safety domain increased in cases of non-cooperation. In the case of experiments using eight ships, it was found that there are optimal parameters for collision avoidance. Also, it was possible to grasp the variation of the sailing distance and the costs according to the combination of the parameters, and it was confirmed that the setting of the parameters can have a great influence on collision avoidance among ships.

  • In this study, a trim tab on the stern hull of a small high-speed vessel of approximately 10 m length sailing at a Froude number of 1.0 was designed for energy efficiency. The running attitude and resistance performance of the bare hull and trim tab hull at several angles to the base line were analyzed for model and full scale ships using computational fluid dynamics, and compared to investigate the scale effect. The analysis results for the bare hull were quite similar, but a difference in the attitude control under same conditions of the trim tab was observed, resulting in the total resistance error. However, there was no significant difference in tendency of the variation in the resistance with the attitude. Thus, the optimum running attitude could be determined from the tendency despite the scale effect, but a full scale analysis is required to analyze the control of the attitude by the trim tab and flow characteristics near the full scale ship.

  • The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is promoting the introduction of e-Navigation that prevents maritime accidents by fusion of Information & Communication Technology (ICT) with ship operation technology. In Korea, Korean e-Navigation is also being developed for fishing vessels and small vessels sailing offshore, which are vulnerable to maritime accidents. However, for the successful development of Korean e-Navigation, it is necessary to develop an indicator that can evaluate the development performance so that the development performance that has been progressed so far can be evaluated and the development direction can be re-established. Therefore, this study attempted to develop an evaluation index tailored to the development goal of e-Navigation service centering on the collision accident, which is a major maritime accident. In this study, a collision accident evaluation index for e-Navigation service was developed by deriving and quantifying the root cause of maritime collision accidents using Root cause analysis(RCA) and fault tree analysis (FTA) techniques. This indicator is considered to be helpful in reducing maritime accidents as it is used as a development indicator for e-Navigation and an indicator for maritime collision accident analysis.

  • When a berth is built close to a fairway, a moored vessel will be affected by the ship waves generated by navigating vessels. In this study, a portable measurement system was developed to measure the roll motion of an actual vessel, and the results were compared with simulation results. The simulation results showed that the roll motion satisfies the loading safety criteria. However, the actual results of the vessel, did not satisfy the criteria in some cases. In this study, 18 cases that did not satisfy the loading safety criteria were analyzed. Among these cases, three cases were affected by a different time zone of the remaining 15 cases, 11 cases (73.3%) were observed to be consistent with arrival times of passenger ships of more than 10,000GT sailing between in Mokpo and Jeju. The results of this study can be used to reflect marine traffic characteristics in the assessment of loading safety, which can increase the reliability of results of the loading safety assessment of ships.

  • In this study, we investigated how satisfaction with on-board training had an effect on career motivation of the trainees. For this purpose, satisfaction for on-board training and career motivation were used as variables. Satisfaction for on-board training were classified into education, environment and operation, and then measurement items were composed. Career motivation consisted of career identity, career insight and career resilience. To establish and test nine hypotheses, a questionnaire survey was conducted by 57 trainees who participated in the Gyeongsang National University on-board sailing training in 2021. To analyze the questionnaire responses, frequency analysis, factor analysis, multiple regression analysis and paired sample t-test were used. As a result of factor analysis, six factors for satisfaction for on-board training were derived. Among the factors, it was analyzed that satisfaction with assignments, the satisfaction with accommodation, and the satisfaction with the adequate condition of facilities and equipment had a significant effect on career motivation. In addition, it was found that career motivation significantly increased through on-board training as a result of comparing the difference between the averages of career motivation before and after on-board training.

  • Recently, marine surveys using unmanned ships are attracting attention, and research on small unmanned ships using sails is on the rise. Sail drones can be used for marine surveys, monitoring, and pollution management. Therefore, in this study, using the method of estimating the ship speed for twin sail drones, the optimal conditions for sailing are checked, and the performance to be considered in the initial design stage, such as the motion performance and resistance of the sail drone. Consequently, the twin sail drone had a speed lower than 2.0 m/s, and the stability satisfied the rule by DNV. In addition, the maximum speed at an angle of attack of 20° at TWA 100° was 1.69 m/s and that at an angle of attack of 25° at TWA 100° was 1.74 m/s.

  • This paper describes a navigation system design for horizontal position estimation using inertial measurement sensors and celestial navigation. In space, stars are widely spread objects in the celestial sphere and have been used mainly to obtain attitude information through star observation. However, it is also possible to obtain information about the horizontal position with the altitude of the star. It is called celestial navigation which is the same principle that former navigators used to locate themselves while sailing on the sea. In particular, in deep space where GPS is not available, it is important to obtain information on the location by making use of stars that are relatively easy to observe. Therefore, we introduce a navigation system that can estimate horizontal position and design two types of systems, loosely coupled and tightly coupled depending on how the measurements are utilized. It is intended to help in the future design of navigation system using celestial navigation by simulation studies that not only verify whether the system correctly estimates horizontal position but also comparing the performance of loosely and tightly coupled methods.
