Generally, the navigational safety of a ship under various loading conditions is evaluated by a loading manual. However, the loading manual handles only statical factors such as weight and buoyancy of ship without including any wave conditions. Practically ship's safety is much concerned with the occurrences on the rough sea as propeller racing, rolling, deck wetness, vertical acceleration, lateral acceleration, slamming and so on. The purpose of this paper is to present a synthetic and practical evaluation method of navigational safety using the integrated seakeeping performance index(ISPI) under loading conditions of ship in seaways. The method is calculated by means of the ISPI by measuring only vertical acceleration. Judgement of dangerousness is carried out for four lading conditions : homogeneous full loaded, half loaded, heavy ballast loaded, and normal ballast loaded conditions. In developing the practical evaluation system of navigational safety, it is useful to solve the difficulties in measuring factors by sensors. And by applying the evaluation diagrames, navigators are able to avoid dangerousness by keeping away of the danger encountering angle of wave direction which the diagram shows.

This paper intends to evaluate the seakeeping performance in consideration of nominal speed loss of ships in a seaway. Authors calculate the nominal speed loss in the Sea State of Beaufort Scale 6, 7 & 8 and obtain each response amplitude of ship;s motion by New Strip Method in consideration of them. This study presents some results of the seakeeping performance by the maximum dangerouseness of ships on each sea state.

최근 선박을 이용한 화물운송의 증대, 해양관광 및 레저 활동을 위한 연안 여객선의 운항 증가, 그리고 해양생태계 파괴와 사회적 문제로 확산된 서해안 기름유출 사고 등 해양에 대한 관심이 갈수록 고조되고 있는 상황에서 선박의 안전운항은 필수적인 요건이다. 이러한 상황에서 현재 운용되고 있는 선박의 출항통제기준에 대한 보다 정량적이고 객관적인 검토가 시급한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 선박 운항 시 안전운항과 가장 밀접한 관련을 갖는 파랑을 분석하여, 우리나라 연안항로에 취항하고 있는 대표적인 선형의 여객선들을 대상으로 해상상태 및 선형에 따라 내항성능지표를 이용하여 선박의 항해안전성을 평가하였다. 이러한 결과는 선박출항통제 기준의 개선과 연안 여객선의 안전운항에 큰 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

최근에 선박이 대형화, 고속화되면서 선수 충격파 영향으로 인하여 선체 또는 화물에 잦은 손상을 초래하기도 하고, 극판적인 상황에서는 선박이 절단되기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 내항성능 평가요소 중 하나인 상하가속도 값을 선교에 설치된 선체감시장치를 이용하여 해상상태별 변화량을 계측하고, 이를 모형시험 및 이론계산 결과와 상호 비교하였다. 또한 ITTC에서 제시하는 내항성능 기준치와도 비교함으로써 실습선 한바다호의 내항성능을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 앞으로 경험할 수 있는 다양한 해상상태에서의 작업가능성 및 위험성 정도의 예측을 가능하게 함으로써 선박의 안전운항에 큰 도움이 될 것으로 판단되며, 또한 다양한 실선계측 자료를 통하여 조선소에서는 보다 우수한 성능의 선박 건조가 가능하리라 본다.

본 연구의 목적은 항해하고 있는 선박의 항해안전성을 평가할 수 있는 탑재형 내항성능 평가시스템 개발을 위한 각 내항성능 평가요소에 대한 상대위험도 D/B를 구축하고자 한다. 탑재형 내항성능 평가시스템은, 선박에 설치하여 선체 운동에 의해 발생하는 상하방향의 가속도를 측정하는 상하가속도 측정기와, 선박의 항해 안전성을 평가하는 종합내항성능지표를 계산하는 컴퓨터 및 종합내항성능지표를 토대로 내항성능 평가도 및 경과도를 모니터 화상 처리 공간상에 표시되도록 구성되어진다. 본 논문에서는 이중에서 선박의 변환 평가치 및 한계 평가치를 사용하여 파랑 중 선박의 종합적인 항해안전성을 평가하는 종합내향성능지표를 계산하는데 필요한 내항성능 평가 프로그램의 알고리즘에서 중요한 역할을 담당하는 내항성능 평가요소의 상대위험도 D/B를 구축하는 방법을 제시한다. 그리고 모델 선박을 사용하여 구축된 상대위험도 함수가 주어진 화물 적재상태, 해상상태, 파향 및 선속에 대한 해당 조건을 토대로 내항성능 평가 프로그램에서 정확하게 구현될 수 있는지를 검토하였다.

From a ship's safe operation point of view, it is very important to estimate the navigational safety in a seaway. The seakeeping performance can be defined as the ability of a ship to go to sea, and to accomplish its missions successfully and safely even in adverse environmental conditions. There are several factors presently adopted for evaluating seakeeping performance. But a hardware of the system considering all these factors has not been developed since some of them can not be measured by sensors. In this paper, a synthetic method of evaluating navigational safety is developed by measuring the vertical and lateral acceleration. An experiment by using real measuring carried out on board the T/S 'HANNARA' The equipment was measured every 4 hours for more than 30 minutes the acceleration by accelerometer, analyzed its acceleration values and calculated navigational dangerousness. As the results of this on board experiment, the system is carried conviction to be useful as evaluating seakeeping performance.

There is a limitation for a ship which is sailing on sea to gather weather and seastate informations. To make up for this weakness, land organizations can gather wider variety of information and evaluate the seakeeping performanceon ship. And supply this information to the ship. In this study, calculated the response amplitude of shp motions with the weather information provided in real time, the nominal speed loss with obtaining increase of resistance caused by wave and stochastic process of the seakeeping performance elements. And the results have been achieved to develop a system which can evaluate the synthetic seakeeping performance. Using this system, the results have been studied to determine the feasibility of using simulation in actural operation onboard ship.

Several factors can be chosen for evaluating seakeeping performance, such as deck wetness, propeller racing, slamming, rolling, vertical acceleration and vertical bending moment, in consi-deration of the safety of human being, cargo and ship. In fact, there are few developments for an evalua-tion method of seakeepting performance correponding with each ship's characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to develop an quantitative evaluation method of seakeeping performance according to ship types. The scope and the method of this study are as follow. (1) Obtain each response amplitude of ship's motion in waves by Ordinary Strip Method and apply it to short-crested, irregular wave for random process of the factors on seakeeping performance. (2) Define the evaluation index, the dangerousness, the maximum dangerousness and the evaluation diagram. (3) Figure out the different characteristics according to ship types by computer simulation of evaluating seakeeping performance. (4) Adopt vertical acceleration and one of rolling or lateral acceleration as the factors on seakeeping performance by clarifying the correlation of stochastic process. This study developed an evaluation method coincident with each ship's characteristics, and suggested a device for application to actual ship. This method might be useful in developing the practical system of seakeeping performance in accordance with ship types. The ship models for computer simulation are 175m container ship types, 93m tranning ship HANARA as passenger ship type, 259m bulk-carrier type and 164m pure car-carrier type.

The recently-developed automated vessels require a system which evaluates the operating conditions of the ship at present position from weather information as well as sensors ; forecasting the operations condition in the state to come in foreseeable future ; and suggests the optimum course and speed for ship's safety. According to a study, deck wetness, propeller racing, slamming. rolling, vertical acceleration, lateral acceleration, vertical bending moment at midship etc. were chosen as the factors for evaluating seakeeping performance. As a matter of act, there is no developing the hardware of a system which could consider all the factors on seakeeping performance. This study introduces a theoretical method which makes it possible to evaluate the seakeeping performance by applying a theory from reliability engineering, and thereby establishing a safety space. The author adopts rolling and pitching as the factors on seakeeping performance by clarifying the correlation of stochastic processes the factors presently adopted for evaluation system in consideration of the safety of human being, cargoes and the ship. This method of evaluation shall be of much use in developing the practical system of seakeeping performance of a ship in waves.

In this paper, a synthetic method for evaluating the seakeeping performance of a ship in waves is studied. For the prediction and evaluation of irregular phenomena to be correlated each other, the multi-dimensional Rayleigh's joint probability density function and the cumulative distribution function are approximated. According to this approximated function, it is able to calculate easily the occurrence probability of the factors on seakeeping performance. We proposed an evaluation method and an index to be defined by the seakeeping performance reliability, that is considered as the dangerousness and the relative dangerousness of the factors on seakeeping performance in waves. The use of this method aid index will be effective to install the sensors which are necessary to evaluate the states of ships at sea. Some example of the calculations by this method for 175m length single screw container ship equipped with diesel engine are also presented.
