This study employs Bayesian network analysis to quantitatively evaluate the risk of incidents in trap boats, utilizing accident compensation approval data spanning from 2018 to 2022. With a dataset comprising 1,635 incidents, the analysis reveals a mortality risk of approximately 0.011 across the entire trap boat. The study significantly identifies variations in incident risks contingent upon fishing area and fishing processes. Specifically, incidents are approximately 1.22 times more likely to occur in coastal compared to offshore, and the risk during fishing processes outweighs that during maintenance operations by a factor of approximately 23.20. Furthermore, a detailed examination of incident types reveals varying incidence rates. Trip/slip incidents, for instance, are approximately 1.36 times more prevalent than bump/hit incidents, 1.58 times more than stuck incidents, and a substantial 5.17 times more than fall incidents. The study concludes by providing inferred mortality risks for 16 distinct scenarios, incorporating fishing areas, processes, and incident types. This foundational data offers a tailored approach to risk mitigation, enabling proactive measures suited to specific circumstances and occurrence types in the trap boat industry.

Fisheries is known as a high-risk industry in Korea, and various efforts have been made to reduce occupational accidents. Trap fisheries represent crustacean production, accounting for 4.7% of total fisheries production and 10.7% of its production value, which is classified as a relatively high-risk industry. With the disaster insurance payment data of the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives (NFFC) from 2016 to 2020, the accident rate of the entire fishery, the accident rate of trap fisheries, and the type of disasters in the past five years were analyzed. As a result, the average fishery accident rate for the past five years was 5.31%, but it was high at 6.15% for coastal trap fisheries and 5.59% for offshore trap fisheries. Slips and trips, struck by objects and contact with machinery were the most common types of the accident according to the characteristics of the work, and hand injuries were analyzed the most. Additional efforts, including education for accident prevention, development of personal protective equipment and improvement of the working environment, are needed to prevent accidents caused by repeated types of disasters.

연안통발 어민에 대한 설문조사 결과, 통발 투하 및 인양 중 로프 걸림에 따른 전도사고가 42.1 %로 가장 높았고, 갑판에서 미 끄러짐과 통발 권양장치의 신체 협착사고가 각각 21.1 %를 차지하였다. 또한 가장 위험한 작업은 전체 조사대상의 53.2 %가 통발 인양과 정을 들었고, 어종선별 33.8 %, 통발 투하 9.1 % 순으로 응답하였다. 어민들은 통발 권양장치의 주요 개선 요구사항으로 응답자의 36.8 %와 31.6 %가 통발을 수중에서 작업갑판까지 수월하게 인양하는 방안과 통발 인양 시 로프 장력 극복과 슬립 방지 등 사고저감 방안을 언급하 였다. 본 연구에서 소형 통발어선 권양장치는 구동롤러와 로프 간의 적정한 접촉각을 통해 로프의 접촉면적과 마찰계수를 증가시킴으로 써 권양력을 높이는 것이다. 구동롤러와 로프 간의 접촉각이 1°, 5°, 9°, 14° 및 19°일 때 로프 장력은 각각의 접촉각에 따라 차이를 보였으 며, 9°일 때 가장 높은 392.62 kgf까지 측정되었다. 이러한 실험결과를 반영하여 시제품 권양장치를 제작하고 총 길이가 100 m인 로프에 4 m 간격으로 총 25개의 통발을 해상에 설치한 후 인양에 따른 로프 장력을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 로프 장력은 통발 인양작업 초기에 급격히 증가하여 가장 높은 31.89 kgf로 측정되었으며, 이후에는 크게 낮아졌다. 따라서 소형 통발어선 권양장치의 권양력은 인양작업 초기에 부 여되는 최대 로프 장력 값을 기준으로 설계하는 것이 타당하다.

Species composition and seasonal variation of aquatic organism in the coastal waters off Taean, Korea were investigated using catches by commercial fishing of the pot and gill net from April 2010 to January 2011. A total of 58 species, 10,602 individuals and 547,569g of aquatic organism were collected during the study. Aquatic organism were composed of 22 species of Pisces, 20 species of Crustacea, 8 species of Gastropoda, 3 species of Echinodea, 2 species of Cephalopoda and Bivalvia, and 1 species of Holothuroidea. 41 species in 9 orders and 22 families were collected by the pot, and 28 species in 15 orders and 22 families were collected by the gill net. Volutharpa ampullacea was the most dominant in the pot, while Okamejei kenojei was the most dominant in the gill net. These two species accounted for 73.9% in the number of individuals, and 64.4% in biomass. The number of species was high in spring in the pot, and autumn in the gill net. The number of individuals and biomass were highest in winter and summer respectively in the pot, and summer in the gill net. The number of species of the consignment quantity caught by commercial fishery of the pot and gill net in Mohang was 12 and 14 respectively. Cluster analysis based on species composition of the 18 most common species showed that the species were separated into 3 different group. Group A was composed of species which were abundant in spring, group B was composed of species which were abundant in summer and autumn, and group C was composed of year-round residents.

According to the recent statistics of marine casualties in Korea, fishing boats are more likely to be ended in the casualties, and small fishing boats especially cause much more accidents in sinking and capsizing than any other big vessels. These casualties were mainly produced from the ignorance on the lack of own ship stability. From this view, this study aims to analyze the characteristics of stability on the crab trap fishing boat receiving transverse wave by means of carrying out the water tank test. The rolling angle of the model ship was affected largely with the displacement and the wave period of it, and the trends were shown that the magnitude of the angle was proportional to the displacement, but inversely to the wave period. And the wave height had effect on the rolling angle just in the specific range of the wave period. The force of steady wind didn't have influence on the rolling variation significantly.
