In this paper, the Flow Control Fin(FCF) optimization has been carried out using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) techniques. This study focused on evaluation for the performance of the FCF attached in the stern part of the ship. The main advantage of FCF is to enhance the resistance performance through the lift generation with a forward force component on the foil section, and the propulsive performance by the uniformity of velocity distribution on the propeller plane. This study intended to evaluate these functions and to find optimized FCF form for minimizing viscous resistance and equalizing wake distribution. Four parameters of FCF are used in the study, which were angle and position of FCF, longitudinal location, transverse location, and span length in the optimization process. KRISO 300K VLCC2(KVLCC2) was chosen for an example ship to demonstrate FCF for optimization. The optimization procedure utilized genetic algorithms (GAs), a gradient-based optimizer for the refinement of the solution, and Non-dominated Sorting GA-II(NSGA-II) for Multiobjective Optimization. The results showed that the optimized FCF could enhance the uniformity of wake distribution at the expense of viscous resistance.

The stern boat deployment system was investigated to evaluate the capability of launching and recovering rigid hull inflatable boat (RHIB) via the stern ramp. The main parameters to launch and recover RHIB were tested at the design stage. The combined hydrodynamic effect of the stern wake and the water jet flow made it difficult to maintain the maneuvering and sea-keeping ability of RHIB approaching to the stern ramp. The safe recovery course was proposed to maintain the directional control of RHIB and to reduce the combined hydrodynamic effect in the transom zone. To evaluate the feasibility of RHIB recovery, the stern sill depth was measured in various conditions and the ramp availability time was obtained. Also, the experimental percent time operability (PTO) test was performed by the number of successive launching and recovering operations.

The finite volume based multi-block RANS code, WAVIS developed at KRISO, is used to simulate the turbulent flow field around the KRISO container ship (KCS) and the modified KRISO tanker (KVLCC2M). The realizable k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model with a wall function is employed for the turbulence closure. The free surface flow with and without propeller is mainly investigated for the KCS and the double model flow is concerned for the KVLCC2M which is obliquely towed in still water. The computed results are compared with the experimental data provided by CFD Tokyo Workshop 2005 in terms of wave profiles, hull surface pressure and wake distribution with and without propeller for the HCS and wake distribution and hydrodynamic forces and moments with various drift angles for the KVLCC2M.

SAR에서 마이크로파의 진행방향으로의 속도성분을 가지고 움직이는 물체는 영상에서 azimuth 방향으로 이동된 위치에 상이 맺힌다는 현상은 이미 잘 알려져 있다. 대부분의 속도측정 알고리즘들은 실제 물체의 위치와 상이 맺힌 위치 사이의 거리를 측정함으로써 속도를 유추하였다. 그러나 움직이는 물체의 실제의 위치를 나타내는 지시자인 도로나 배의 물결모양은 일반적으로 SAR 영상에서의 식별도가 높지 않기 때문에 이러한 방법은 영상취득시의 조건이나 물체의 움직임 정도에 따라 적용이 제한적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SAR 원시자료 처리단계의 중간 산물인 range-compressed 영상의 azimuth 차분신호로부터 물체의 속도를 측정하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 움직이는 물체에 의한 도플러 중심주파수의 변이가 azimuth 차분신호에서의 위상변화를 일으킨다는 점에 기초한다. 일반적으로 SAR에서 감지하는 지표물의 위상은 SAR의 기하에 의하여 발생하는 도플러 변화율에 따라서 선형적으로 변한다. 이 선형변화위상과 몇 가지 상수 값을 갖는 위상들을 제거하고 남은 신호는 물체의 움직임과 직접적인 관련이 있으므로, 이로부터 속도를 구해낼 수 있다. 이 방법을 실제 ENVISAT ASAR영상을 이용하여 배의 속도를 구하는 데에 적용해 보았으며, 그 결과는 목표물의 위치에 따라 다른 양상을 보였다. 해상에 단독적으로 존재하는 배에 적용하였을 때는 0.1m/s 정도의 차이로 기존의 속도측정 알고리즘의 결과와 잘 일치하였으나, 육지에 인접한 연안의 배는 신호의 교란에 의해서 1m/s 이상의 오차를 보였다.

With repeated coverage, spaceborne SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) instruments provide the most efficient means to monitor and study the changes in important elements of the marine environment. Due to highresolution of SAR data, the coverage of SAR sensor is always limited, especially for a repeat cycle. With more SAR sensors from various satellites, new data products such as ocean surface drift can be derived when two SARs' tracks overlap in a short time over coastal areas. Currently, there are two SAR sensors on different satellites with almost the exactly same path. That is, ERS-2 is following ENVISAT with a 30-minutes delay, which will be a good timing for ocean mesosclae feature tracking. For another application, a mystery ship near a big eddy with strong ship wake has been tracked between ERS-2 and ENVISAT SAR images to estimate its ship speed.

This paper describes the experimental method to predict the propeller induced fluctuating pressure on the hull surface. Cavitations of the three model propellers with varying degree of skews, $0^{\circ},\;36^{\circ}\;and\;72^{\circ}$, were observed and the fluctuating pressure induced by the cavitating propellers in the flat plate above these propellers were measured simultaneously at 9 points in the wake field generated by the wire-mesh screens. Another model propeller designed for the dummy model ship was tested in a similar way behind the dummy model ship. The effects of skew variation on the cavitation patterns and fluctuating pressures were illustrated, and the influence of tip-clearances on the fluctuating pressures was also demonstrated. As a result, it is shown that the level of fluctuating pressure and cavity extent could be controlled to some extent by introducing the skews and tip clearances.

In this study, the self-propulsion tests are performed in INHA towing tank. And the effective wake characteristics of the KVLCC2 and the KCS models are compared by the experimental results. The form factor is independent of Reynolds number. To estimate the hydrodynamic performance of a full scale ship, the form factor is determined to consider attendant on Reynolds number. In this research, the power predictions are carried out considering the form factor difference of model and full scale ship. The results of this research could be used as one of the fundamental data to the powering performance prediction.

In this study. a numerical analysis has been performed for the turbulent flow around a 15,000TEU twin-skeg container ship using a commercial CFD code. FLUENT. The computed results have been compared with the model test data from MOERI. We investigated viscous resistance coefficient. wake distribution and characteristics of the shear flow according to the grid numbers. Although the free surface is approximated by the plane of symmetry in this work. the calculated axial velocity and transverse vector show a good agreement with the MOERI experimental data except for the region of 0.9 level of axial velocity at the propeller plane. The numerical analysis show that commercial CFD code is useful tool for the evaluation of complex hull form with twin-skegs.

This paper employs computational tools to investigate the diffraction effects in regular head waves on the added resistance and wake on the propeller plane. The objective ships are a 66,000 DWT bulk carrier and a 3,600 TEU container ship. Fixed and free to heave and pitch conditions at design speed have been taken into account. Two-phase unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations have been solved using the finite volume method; and a realizable k-ε model has been applied for the turbulent closure. The free surface is obtained by solving a VOF equation. The computations are carried out at the same scale of the model tests. Grid and numerical wave damping zones are applied to remove unwanted wave reflection at the boundaries. The computational results are analyzed using the Fourier series. The added resistances in waves at the free condition are higher than those at the fixed condition, which are nearly constant for all wavelengths. The wake velocity in waves is higher than that in calm water, and is accelerated where the wave crest locates on the propeller plane. When the vertical motion at the stern goes upward, the wake velocity also accelerated.
