Ship's maneuverability is very important factor in safe ship handling and economical ship operation. Steering characteristics are consisted of course stability and maneuverability. Today in many advanced ship-building countries, they study ship's course stability, using model ship tests, such as straight line tests, rotating arm tests and Planar Motion Mechanism (PMM) etc., in tow in tanks. It is the purpose of this paper to provide ship's handlers with better understanding of steering characteristics and to help them in safe controlling and manevering . In this paper, the author simulated response of various vessels, running straight course with constant speed, and they are disturbed by small external disturbance of one degree yaw angle with no angular velocity . The author used the hydrodynamic derivtives resulted at tests of Davidson's laboratory in Stevens Institute of Technology, New Jersey, U.S.A. Course stability was evaluated and analyzed in various respects, such as block coefficient, ratio of ship's length to beam, draft and rudder area ratio etc. The obtained results are as follows : (1) The ship's course stability is affected by magnitude of block coefficient greatly. In case that the block coefficient is more than 0.7, the deviation varies at nearly same rate but the requistite time to reach the steady course is different. (2) The ship's course stability is affected by magnitude of L/B. When the dimensionless time reaches about 3, the deviation and requisite time to reach the steady course are influenced nearly same. After the dimensionless time is about 3, they change on invariable ratio. (3) The effect to course stability by L/T and RA' can be neglected. (4) The reason why thy VLCC and container feeder vessel are unstable on their course is that their block coefficient is generally more than 0.8 and the ratio of ship's length to beam is about 6.0.

Ship's trim is the one of the most important factor for safety at the sea. Turning circle test and Z-test were carried out to find the effect of ship's trim and draft changes. The results are as follows. 1. If the ship's draft and trim became large, turning circle would be wide. 2. If the ship's draft and trim became large, ship's drift angle would be small. Small drift angle made wide turning circle. 3. Trim by the head made slow ship's final speed when turning circle test. 4. By Z-test, the deeper draft and trim by the stern made small OSA. Small OSA means strong ship's stability. 5. Totally 2nd OSA is smaller than 1st OSA on Z-test. 6. There were small differences of 2nd OSA in trim by the stern, but there were large OSA in trim by the head. 7. The larger trim by the stern, the smaller OSW. The small OSW means better ship's stability and maneuverability.

When a ship is running in following and quartering seas and on a crest with the ship′s length being nearly the same as the wave length, ship′s stability will be lost most; "T" shape crests with highly concentrated energy will appear during the process of transformation from irregular waves to regular ones, and the ship may be under continuous impact of large waves for a long period of time; Synchronism will also appear when the ship′s natural period of rolling and period of encounter are close to each other. For safe navigation, proper stability should be well ensured, proper speed and course chosen with speed under 1.8L1/2 kn (L is the ship′s length), initial listing avoided, special attention paid to steering.

In this paper, ship accidents are analyzed briefly and the main objective is to investigate a potential technological approach for risk assessment of vessel stability. Ship nonlinear motion equation and main parameters that induce ship capsizing in beam seas have analyzed, the survival probability of a ferry in random status have estimated and finally find out a risk assessment concept for ship's intact stability estimation by safe basin simulation method. Since a few main parameters are considered in the paper, it is expected to be more accurately for estimating ship survival probability when considering ship rolling initial condition and all other impact parameters in the future research.

Marine casualties of vessel are said to be in most case caused by human error, but it would be valid for the assumption that the ship is built with high quality and then should be acceptable to the safety standards. It means that the inherent characteristics of a ship should be the first consideration on the safety of ship. Therefore it is basically necessary for navigator to grasp the inherent stability of his ship and ensure that the ship complies with the minimum statutory standards of stability. This study is to realize the stability of the Korean offshore large purseiner varying with loading conditions by the inclining data and some calculations. The author compared the stability of the ship with IMO criteria and domestic rule, and proposed some improvement for the safety of the ship. The results are summarized as follows ; The values of GM of the ship according to the loading condition in navigation satisfy both of the IMO criteria and the domestic rule, but in case of the area under the GZ curves between the heel angles of $30^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$, and the heel angle occuring the maximum righting lever not satisfy the IMO rule at the fishing ground departure and arrival conditions in the haul in net situation. The initial metacentric height of the ship is very large, but the range of stability and the occurring angle of the maximum GZ are very small, so even small inclining can bring about the beam end. The best method of improvement for that is to increase the freeboard of the model among the variables.

According to amendments of ship safety act which comes into force from 4 Nov. 2007, the amended stability criteria should be applied to the small vessels of 12m or more in length. In this paper, the dimensions of domestic small vessels and the casualty reports of capsizing accidents are analyzed. And 58 ships are sampled, modeled for the investigation of the stability performance. Based on the regression analysis of the model ship's allowable metacentric-heights under several stability requirements, stability criteria for small fishing vessels and cargo ships are proposed.

In order to ensure safety of small vessels, the amended Ship Safety Act will come into force on 4th. Nov. 2007. This study is performed to suggest the stability criteria of fishing vessels and cargo ships of 12m in length and over but less than 24m in length which will be new object of amended Ship Safety Act. We have analyze the dimensions of domestic small vessels and the casualty reports of capsizing accidents. According to the analyzed result, 58 ships that are in the range of the dimension are modeled and the stability calculation has been carried out. The Stability for the 58 ships has been analyzed by comparing the result that applied the selected standard in the national standard to the stability calculation. Based on the regression analysis of the model ship's allowable transverse metacentric-heights under several stability requirements, stability criteria for small fishing vessels and cargo ships are proposed.

최근 선박의 전복사고는 무게중심의 부적절한 관리, 기상악화 또는 과도한 조타사용 등으로 인한 선체운동이 발생하면서 화물 또는 중량물이 이동하여 복원력 저하 또는 상실 등이 주된 원인으로 분석되고 있다. 따라서 전복사고를 예방하기 위해서는 위험한 횡경사가 발생하더라도 직립 상태로 되돌아오려는 복원성 확보가 이루어져야 한다. GM은 복원성을 판단하는 중요한 평가요소이며, 항해사는 GM을 복원성 검토에 좋은 척도로 활용한다. 본 연구에서는 5년간 운항 중인 선박으로부터 수집한 복원성 자료를 바탕으로 운항 상태에 따른 선종별 GM을 선박 길이, 폭, 총톤수 등 선박제원으로 분석하였다. 선박 길이에 따른 GM 분포의 특징을 확인하였고, 선박 폭과 GM의 상관분석을 수행한 후 선폭대비 GM의 비율을 산출한 후 과거의 비율과 비교하여 최근 경향을 검토하였다. 또한 선박 대형화 추세를 반영하기 위하여 총톤수(GT)/선폭(B)을 이용하여 GM을 회귀분석하여 선종별 GM 추정을 위한 간이근사식 및 최소 GM을 제안하였다. 연구의 결과는 선박에서 항해사가 안정적인 GM 확보의 검토를 위한 자료로 이용되길 기대된다.

For the mechanism of ship capsizing, we can generally consider that it\`s caused due to pure loss of stability, parametric oscillation(low cycle resonance) of ship in waves and the broaching phenomena. Among them, low cycle resonance occurs due to the dynamic change of righting arm with respect to the relative position of ship to waves. The dynamic change depends on the encounter period of a ship in following waves. This paper discusses the following items : (1) An analytical expression of GZ curve varying with respect to the relative position of ship to waves, (2) Non-linear equation of motion describing low cycle resonance, (3) The effects of righting arm, stability range and encounter period on low cycle resonance.

선박용 전자식 경사계는 횡경사, 횡동요 주기 및 진폭 등 선박의 횡경사 관련 여러 가지 데이터를 측정하고 출력할 수 있는 장비이다. 선박안전성 판단지원이 가능한 전자식 경사계는 복원성능 안정성 지원 플랫폼이 탑재되어 있어 선박안전성(GM) 정보가 부족한 소형선박에도 자료제공이 가능하다. 선박에서의 GM은 항해사들이 복원성을 판단하는 중요한 요소이며, 선종에 따라 각기 다른 GM 범위를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 선종별 안정적인 GM에 대한 선행연구사례의 방법론을 기반으로 하여 추가 선종에 대한 GM 분석을 통한 선종별 안정적인 GM과 한계경사각의 제안을 목적으로 한다. 또한 국제 규격에 충족하는 선박용 전자식 경사계에 선종별 GM 데이터를 내장하여 선박안전성 강화를 위한 GM확보 및 검토를 위한 자료로 활용되길 기대한다.
