In this study, a numerical prediction method on manoeuvrability of Wind Turbine Installation Vessel (WTIV) is presented. Planar Motion Mechanism (PMM) captive test for the bare hull of WTIV is carried out in the model basin and compared with the numerical results using RANS simulation based on Open-source Field Operation And Manipulation (OpenFOAM) calculation to validate the developed method. The manoeuvrability of WTIV with skeg and/or without skeg is investigated using the numerical approach along with the captive model test. In the numerical calculations, the dynamic stability index which indicates the course keeping ability is evaluated and compared for three different hull configurations i.e. bare hull and other two hulls with center skeg and twin skeg. This paper proves that the numerical approach using RANS simulation can be readily applied to estimate the manoeuvrability of WTIV at the initial design stage.

When a large ship is advancing in waves, ship undergoes the hydroelastic response, and this have influence on structural stability and the fatigue destruction etc. of ship. The main objective of this research is to develop an accurate and convenient method on the hydroelastic response analysis of ships on the real sea states. We analyzed hydroelastic responses, which is formulated by finite element method. The numerical approach for the hydroelastic responses is based on the combination of the three dimensional source distribution method, the dynamic response analysis and the spectral analysis method. The calculated results show good agreement with the experimental and calculated ones by Watanabe.

In this paper, the mooring system for a floating wave energy farm is designed based on a two-dimensional analysis. The mooring system uses an anchorless mooring line linking two floaters in a floating wave energy farm. The basic equation to determine the length of the mooring line between the two floaters is proposed. The other properties such as the diameter and pretension are taken from the mooring line for a single floater. The dynamic behavior and safety of the designed mooring system under extreme ocean conditions are analyzed with the commercial software Orcaflex. A numerical study shows the stability and high safety in tension of the designed mooring lines for a floating wave energy farm. The proposed anchorless mooring system for a floating wave energy farm results in a considerable reduction in the length of the mooring line, contributing to the economics of a floating wave energy farm.

An investigation into the stochastic bifurcation and response statistits of an autoparameteric system under broad-band random excitation is made. The specific system examined is a spring-pendulum system with internal resonance, which is known to be a good model for a variety of engineering systems, including ship motions with nonlinear coupling between pitching and rolling motions. The Fokker-Planck equations is used to generate a general first-order differential equation in the dynamic moment of response coordinates. By means of the Gaussian and non-Gaussian closure methods the dynamic moment equations for the random responses of the system are reduced to a system of autonomous ordinary differential equations. In view of equilibrium solutions of this system and their stability we examine the stochastic bifurcation and response statistics. The analytical results are compared with results obtained by Monte Carlo simulation.

Intensive experimental investigation has been conducted on the characteristics of model tank with intruded flow. The remaining flow inside tank contribute to the dynamic behavior and further closely related to the stability of vessel as well. To understand the importance of the trapped flow and its dynamic effects a series of systematic tests were conducted using a bench tester that could generate periodic roll motion and also complex motions of combined roll-heave-sway. To accommodate experimental conditions and to create three degree freedom of motions, a bench tester was fabricated and verified. Having similarities in terms of flow trapped inside tank, theoretical approaches for A.R.T. were applied to the study. The major parameters including roll angle, period and flow height were varied in the experiments to obtain the characteristics of model tank.

본 연구는 선박을 이용한 핫코일 화물의 안전하고 효과적인 운송 방법에 관하여 다루고 있다. 기하학적으로 불안정한 화물인 핫코일을 양측에서 쐐기로 지지함으로써 안전성을 지켜주는 카세트(cassette)를 활용한 자동 선적/하역 시스템이 효율적이고 타산성이 있는 것으로 간주되고 있다. 카세트 위의 핫코일의 안전 및 나아가서 전체 운반선의 안전은 카세트의 지지경사각에 의해 직접적인 영향을 받는다. 카세트 경사각의 최적설계를 위하여 핫코일과 카세트간의 상대운동을 허용하지 않는 구속조건하에서 핫코일-카세트 화물의 동역학 모델이 개발되었다. 파랑중 운반선의 운동에 기인되어 핫코일에 작용하는 관성력의 합력과 카세트 경사면 반력 사이의 힘의 평형 조건식이 유도되었으며, 그에 따라서 수치시뮬레이션 프로그램이 개발되었다. 수치 시뮬레이션에 의하여 핫코일의 동안전성과 카세트 구조 강도를 고려한 최적의 카세트 경사각은 약 37도로 선정되었다. 설계된 카세트 경사각의 성능은 축소 벤치 테스트를 동하여 검토 및 입증되었다.

The use of gas as fuel, particularly liquefied natural gas (LNG), has increased in recent years owing to its lower sulfur and particulate emissions compared to fuel oil or marine diesel oil. LNG is a low temperature, volatile fuel with very low flash point. The major challenges of using LNG are related to fuel bunkering, storing, and handling during ship operation. The main components of an LNG fuel system are the bunkering equipment, fuel tanks, vaporizers/heaters, pressure build-up units (PBUs), and gas controlling units. Low-pressure dual-fuel (DF) engines are predominant in small LNG-powered vessels and have been operating in many small- and medium-sized ferries or LNG-fueled generators.(Tamura, K., 2010; Esoy, V., 2011[1][2]) Small ships sailing at coast or offshore rarely have continuous operation at constant engine load in contrast to large ships sailing in the ocean. This is because ship operators need to change the engine load frequently due to various obstacles and narrow channels. Therefore, controlling the overall system performance of a gas supply system during transient operations and decision of bunkering time under a very poor infrastructure condition is crucial. In this study, we analyzed the fuel consumption, the system stability, and the dynamic characteristics in supplying fuel gas for operating conditions with frequent engine load changes using a commercial analysis program. For the model ship, we selected the 'Econuri', Asia's first LNG-powered vessel, which is now in operation at Incheon Port of South Korea.

In this paper, the authors propose a new approach to control a barge type surface vessel. It is based on the Dynamic Positioning System(DPS) design. The main role of barge ship is to carry and supply the materials to the floating units and other places. To carry out this job, it should be positioned in the specified area. However sometimes the thrust systems are installed on it, and in general the rope control by mooring winch system is used. It may be difficult to compare the control performances of two types. If we consider this problem in point of usefulness, we can easily find out that the winch control system is more useful and applicable to the real field than the thrust control system except a special use. Therefore, in this paper we consider a DPS design problem which can be extended to the many application fields. The goal of this paper is twofold. First, the sliding mode controller (SMC) for positioning the our vessel is proposed. Especially, in this paper, a robust stability condition is given based on descriptor system representation. In the result, the sliding mode control law guarantees to keep the vessel in the defined area in the presence of environmental disturbances. And second, the thrust allocation problem is solved by using redistributed pseudo-inverse (RPI) algorithm to determine the thrust force and direction of each individual actuator. The proposed approach has been simulated with a supply vessel model and found work well.

최근 해상 교량 기초 시공 중 차수 및 연직 하중을 지지하는 역할을 수행하는 대형 원형 강관 가설 공법이 제안되었다. 하지만, 대형 원형 강관의 시공 및 운용 중에 발생할 수 있는 선박 충돌과 같은 위부 요인은 구조물의 안정성에 악영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 외부 충격에 의한 대형 원형 강관의 동적 반응을 평가할 수 있는 기법을 개발하기 위해 실내 실험을 통한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 실내 실험에서는 해상에 설치된 대형 원형 강관을 모사하기 위하여 소형 모형 강관을 토조에 설치하였고, 토조 속 흙의 높이와 수위는 각각 23cm와 25cm로 설정하였다. 수위는 40cm, 55cm, 70cm로 변화시켜가며 실험을 수행하였다. 선박 충돌을 모사하기 위하여 모형 강관의 상부를 해머로 타격하였으며, 모형 강관의 길이 방향으로 설치된 변형률계와 상부에 설치된 가속도계로 신호를 측정하였다. 실험결과, 변형률계로 측정된 변형률이 모형 강관의 상부에서 하부로 내려갈수록 감소하였다. 변형률계로 측정된 신호의 주파수는 충격이 가해지면 상시미진동 주파수보다 크게 증가하였지만, 수위 아래에 위치한 변형률계에서 측정된 주파수는 큰 증가를 나타내지 않았다. 가속도계로 측정된 신호의 최대 주파수는 충격이 가해지면 상시미진동 주파수보다 크게 증가하였다. 수위가 증가하면 최대 주파수는 감소하지만, 상시미진동 주파수보다는 크게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 변형률계와 가속도계가 대형 원형 강관의 동적 반응 특성을 평가하는데 유용한 지표가 될 수 있음을 보여준다.
