  • Busan New Port, under construction aiming for the hub of Northeast Asia and Partly in operation, had damaged up to 48 billion Won due to Typhoon 'maemi' in 2003. The present criteria of domestic harbor design only describes about the critical wave height with respect to the size of vessel for harbor tranquility. The berth operation ratio which represents the annual available berthing days is depending on the efficiency of cargo handling work and this depends on the motion of the moored vessel due to the wave action and the characteristics of cargo gears. The motion of moored vessel might be related not only to the wave height but also to wave period. Furthermore, the berth operation ratio relies on external forces such as currents and winds, including the characteristics of mooring system and the specification of the moored vessel. In this study we only deal with berth operation ratio in normal sea state, considering wave and current by measured data and numerical calculation. Especially we tried to evaluate the berth operation ratio for each berth adopting the variation of dredging and reclamation plan and the change of wave environment during the process of the new port construction. For better understanding and analysis of wave transformation process, we applied the steady state spectral wave model and extended mild-slope wave model to the related site. This study summarizes comparisons of harbor responses predicted by two numerical predictions obtained at Busan New port site. Field and numerical model analysis was conducted for the original port plan and the final corrected plan.

  • The radiation characteristics of the conical corrugated feed horn are analyzed by the Gaussian beam mode theory. the electric field over the aperture can be expanded in terms of a set of Gaussian-Laguerre modes. It is proved that these modes are the solutions of the wave epuations for the paraxial approximation. A method, using the sum of the mode expansion coefficients instead of calculation only the fundamental mode, is presented in order to reduce the radiation pattern error. For illustrative examples, the radiation patterns of the corrugated horn antenna operting over C, Ku, and mm-wave band are calculated. Our results agree well with the results obtained by the vector potential method over each band, and also agree well with the measured value at 6.175GHz.

  • CFD calculations are performed for KRISO 3600TEU container ship(KCS) models with different Reynolds numbers. Numerical calculations of the turbulent flows with the free surface around KCS have been carried out at $Re=0.791{\times}106\;and\;Re=1.4{\times}107$ using a standard Fluent package. In both cases, Froude number is fixed with 0.26 and wave elevation is simulated by using the VOF method. The calculated results at $Re=1.4{\times}107\;and\;Re=0.791{\times}106$ are compared with the experiment data of KRISO towing tank test and RIMS CWC test, respectively. Boundary layer thickness and wake field shows Reynolds number differences. There are some changes in wave pattern behind transom stern.

  • Calculation of elastic wave fields has important applications in a variety of engineering fields including NDE (Non-destructive evaluation). Scattering problems have been investigated by numerous authors with different solution schemes. For simple geometries of the scatterers (e.g., cylinders or spheres), the analysis of steady-state elastic wave scattering has been carried out using analytical techniques. For arbitrary geometries and multiple inclusions, numerical methods have been developed. Special finite element methods, e.g., the infinite element method and a hybrid method called the Global-Local finite element method have also been developed for this purpose. Recently, the boundary integral equation method has been used successfully to solve scattering problems. In this paper, a volume integral equation method (VIEM) is proposed as a new numerical solution scheme for the solution of general elasto-dynamic problems in unbounded solids containing multiple inclusions and voids or cracks. A boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is also presented for elastic wave scattering problems. The relative advantage of the volume and boundary integral equation methods for solving scattering problems is discussed.

  • Acoustic Target Strength (TS) is a major parameter of the active sonar equation, which indicates the ratio of the radiated intensity from the source to the re-radiated intensity by a target. In developing a TS equation, it is assumed that the radiated pressure is known and the re-radiated intensity is unknown. This research provides a TS equation for polygonal plates, which is applicable to near field acoustics. In this research, Helmholtz-Kirchhoff formula is used as the primary equation for solving the re-radiated pressure field; the primary equation contains a surface (double) integral representation. The double integral representation can be reduced to a closed form, which involves only a line (single) integral representation of the boundary of the surface area by applying Stoke's theorem. Use of such line integral representations can reduce the cost of numerical calculation. Also Kirchhoff approximation is used to solve the surface values such as pressure and particle velocity. Finally, a generalized definition of Sonar Cross Section (SCS) that is applicable to near field is suggested. The TS equation for polygonal plates in near field is developed using the three prescribed statements; the redection to line integral representation, Kirchhoff approximation and a generalized definition of SCS. The equation developed in this research is applicable to near field, and therefore, no approximations are allowed except the Kirchhoff approximation. However, examinations with various types of models for reliability show that the equation has good performance in its applications. To analyze a general shape of model, a submarine type model was selected and successfully analyzed.

  • Parametric density concept is proposed for a long-range pipeline health monitoring. This concept is designed to obtain the attenuation of ultrasonic guided waves propagating in underwater pipelines without complicated calculation of attenuation dispersion curves. For the study, three different pipe materials such as aluminum, cast iron, and steel are considered, ten different transporting fluids are assumed, and four different geometric pipe dimensions are adopted. It is shown that the attenuation values based on the parametric density concept reasonably match with the attenuation values obtained from dispersion curves; hence, its efficiency is proved. With this concept, field engineers or inspectors associated with long-range pipeline health monitoring would take the advantage of easier capturing wave attenuation value, which is a critical variable to decide sensor location or sensors interval.

  • Recently, the necessity of efficient and exact method to analyze structures is increasing with the importance of the seismic analysis. But the finite element method used in many field do not give the exact solution unless the length of the element is very short enough to represent the deformation of the element. Because the amount of computer calculation increase with the increasing of the number of degree of freedoms, the finite element method for the exact dynamic analysis of structures would not be efficient. To solve these problems, spectral clement method combined spectral method using the principle of wave mechanics and finite element method for the analysis of discrete models is applied to evaluate the behavior of the spatial structures. As a result of analysis. it becomes clear that the spectral element method is faster and more exact than the finite clement method.

  • In this paper, the oscillator strengths of both the heavy-hole and the light-hole excitons in GaAs-A\ulcornerGa\ulcornerAs and In\ulcornerGa\ulcornerAs-InP quantum wells with the effect of a magnetic field applied along the growth axis are studied. The calculation is carried out usig a variational approach, based on a simple trial exction wave function. The exciton oscillator strengths are found to decrease with increasing well width and to increase with the applied magnetic fields which lead to additional quantum confinement for moderately wide well sizes. Also, the oscillator strengths for the heavy-hole exciton are found to be large than those of the light-hole exciton in these quantum well structures.

  • In the field of research of seakeeping quality, much development has been made incent years using the method of calculation based on the strip theory. It is indispensable to grasp quantitatively the seaworthiness of a ship in order to draw correct design at initial stage and to perform proper operations at sea services. In this paper, the responses of three fishing vessels are calculated using statistical and spectral analyzing method to get the characteristics of the motion response. From the theoretical result we know that the significant values of the pitching and rolling motion can be signiicantly affected by not only the ship's tonnage but also the mean wave period in spite of the similar sea environment. So we can apply these expected results to the safe maneuvering and fishing operations in rough weather conditions by combining environmental circumstance with the stability condition of vessels.
