Recently, with the increase in requirements for marine development, a marine urbanism is being visualized, with more and more huge-scale structures at the scope of the ocean space utilization. In particular, a pontoon-type structure has attracted attention, since The Floating Structures Association of Japan proposed a new concept as the most suitable one of floating airports. The Very Lage Floating Structure (VLFS) is considered a flexible structure, for a quite large length-to-breadth ratio and its geometrical flexibility. The main objective of this study is to makean exact and convenient prediction about the hydro-elastic response on very large offshore structures in waves. The numerical approach for the hydro-elastic responses is based on the combination of the three dimensional source distribution method and the dynamic response analysis method, which assumed a dividing pontoon type structure, as many rigid bodies connected elastic beam elements. The established hydo-elastic theory was applied to the radiation forces caused by motions of a whole structure, formulated using the global coordinate system, which has the origin at the center of the structure. However, in this paper, we took radiation forces, occurred by individual motions of floating bodies, into consideration. The calculated results show good agreement with the experimental and calculated results by Yago.

Recently, as the technology of utilization for the ocean space is being advanced, floating structures are asked for being mare and mare huge-scale. A very large floating structure(VLFS) is considered as a flexible structure, because of a quite large length-to-breadth ratio and its geometrical flexibility. The main object of this study is to develop an accurate and convenient method on the hydroelastic response analysis of very large offshore structures on the real sea states. The numerical approach for the hydorelastic responses is based on the combination of the three dimensional source distribution methods, the dynamic response analysis method and the spectral analysis method. A model is considered as many rigid bodies connected elastic beam elements. The calculated results shaw good agreement with the experimental and calculated ones by Ohta.

It is a very challenging work to design large Arctic LNG carrier, since LNG carrier requires high reliability for the structural safety and the environment of Arctic region is known to be very severe. Therefore, special attention should be paid for the verifying the structural safety of LNG career particularly with regard to LNG leakage. In this paper, the safety of the hull structure and cargo containment system of 208K MK $III^{TM}$ type LNG carriers with Arc4 is investigated based on the direct calculation of ice loads as well as wave loads. From the whole investigation, it is clear that the developed vessel - 208K MK $III^{TM}$ type LNG carrier with RMRS Ice class Arc4 - has enough strength and is safe to be operated in Arctic region.

Turret mooring type Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) is designed to rotate the hull around a turret system. The system is mounted inside a cylindrical moon-pool structure of the ship hull structure. The upper part of the moon-pool structure called Bogie Support Structure (BSS) is supported on ring type rail structure (bogie), so high roundness is required at the top of the structure. In this study, the deformation measured during BSS installation was compared with the predicted values through the thermal elasto-plastic analysis, and the causes of deformation were analyzed. Deformation behavior of cylindrical structure with a very large diameter compared to the thickness was investigated. In addition, a proper welding sequence and correction method for the deformed structure were proposed. This study can be an example of the solution to the tolerance problem of large cylindrical structures.

Sandwich structures, which are composed of a thick core between two faces, are commonly used in many engineering applications because they combine high stiffness and strength with low weight. Accordingly, the usage of sandwich structure is very widely applied to the aircraft, the automobile and marine industry, etc., because of these advantages. In this paper, we have investigated the buckling protection of an inner structure plate and the useful corrugated configuration for contact, and the fabrication method of the inner structure plate for large area using the continuous molding process. Also, we have guaranteed the accuracy of the molding process through the micro corrugated mold fabrication and secured the accuracy and analyzed aspect properties of the inner structure plate fabricated for a large area using the partial mold process.

In this study, we focus on the submerged plate built into the Very Large Floating Structure with the partial openings of Sm long, which enables the reverse flow of incident wave to generate the wave breaking. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of wave exciting forces acting on the submerged plate and the fore part of VLFS. Firstly, we have carried out the extensive experiments to understand the characteristics of the wave exciting forces. Then we have performed the numerical simulations by applying the Marker and Cell method (MAC method) and compared with the experimental results. We discuss the validity of MAC method and the effects of the submerged plate on the motion of VLFS. As a result, we get the conclusion that the submerged plate is useful for reducing the wave exciting forces acting on the structure behind the submerged plate.

A large number of natural products were worldwidely discovered from maine organisms. There are many secondary metabolites produced by maine organisms which showed very strong bio-activities and distinct bio-active mechanisms. In korea, about 350 secondary metabolites including more than 280 novel compounds have been isolated and structually defined. Many researches for developing products such as cosmetics, functional food materials, anti-fouling substances are being performed using distinct activities of marine organisms. Although the research on marine natural products has been remained at its initial or developing stage of drug development, significant progress has been made for isolation, structure determination and bioassay of secondary metabolites.

초대형 해양 구조물은 매립 방법을 대신한 새로운 해양공간의 이용방법으로서 주목받고 있다. 따라서, 이와 같은 요구에 부합하기 위해서 초대형 해양 구조물이 제안되고 있다. 초대형 해양 구조물은, 매립 공법과 달리, 수심이나 해저의 지질에 관계없이 설치할 수 있고, 또 부체의 아래에 흐름이 존재하기 때문에 자연환경에 영향이 전혀 발생하지 않는다. 또한, 용이하게 조립 해체를 할 수 있기 때문에, 확장이나 철거를 쉽게 할수 있는 장점이 있다. 초대형 부유체 구조물 설계 기준안에 의하면, 구조안정성에 관한 항목 중, 부유체 구조물의 사용환경 및 설치환경에서 발생할 수 있는 최악의 해상조건에 있어 적절한 구조강도 여유를 갖는 것을 쥬정하고 있다. 따라서, 예상 가능한 하중 시나리오에 의해서, 적절한 구조 해석 및 실험을 수행하고, 안전성을 확인하도록 요구하고 있다. 전자에 관해서는 구조부재 레벨의 강도 평가를 수행하고, 후자에 관해서는 구조물의 파괴를 수반한 거동을 확인한다. 지금까지 탄성 응답 해석을 기초로 주요 구조부재의 강도 한계치를 기준으로 한 다양한 검도, 평가가 행해져 왔다. 그렇지만, 부재의 붕괴를 초과한 부하가 작용할 때의 구조 전체로서의 붕괴 거동 및 안전성에 관한 검토는 적다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 이상 환경 조건하에서 발생 가능한 하중조건에 대해서 대형 해상구조물의 비선형 붕괴 거동을 파악한 것을 목적으로 하고 있다.

This paper summarizes a solution procedure for a large cylindrical structure mounted underneath a ship as a sonar. Vibration analysis of the water loaded structure is required to enhance the structural reliability as well as acoustic performance of the sonar. It is, however, often very difficult to solve such structures since they have many DOFs, considering the frequency of interest and the water-loading. The mode mapping method is proposed and verified to take into account the water-loading with the minimum DOF for the analysis. The cyclic symmetric method is then reviewed to show how the eigen properties of the full model can be obtained from the representative segment model. The solution procedure is finally proposed and applied successfully for a simplified water-loaded cylindrical array structure.

A ship owner has been disappointed with the wrinkle, phenomenon visually occurring at the side shell structure of VLCC(very large crude oil carrier). In order to solve this problem, we have firstly performed a variety of actual measurements. Furthermore, comparing the welding deformation level of DSME(Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. Ltd.) with that of SHI(Samsung Heavy Industries), the superiority of deformation control level of Korean shipyard has been substantiated.
