  • The decrease in under keel clearance (UKC) due to the increase of draft that occurs during advancing and turning of very large vessels of different types was analyzed based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The trim change in the Duisburg test case (DTC) container ship was much smaller than that of the KRISO very large crude oil carrier 2 (KVLCC2). The sinkage of both ships increased gradually as the water depth became shallower. The amount of sinkage change in DTC was greater than that in KVLCC2. The maximum heel angle was much larger for DTC than for KVLCC2. Both ships showed outward heel angles up to medium-deep water. However, when the water depth became shallow, an inward heel was generated by the shallow water effect. The inward heel increased rapidly in very shallow water. For DTC, the reduction ratio was very large at very shallow water. DTC appeared to be larger than KVLCC2 in terms of the decreased UKC because of shallow water in advancing and turning. In this study, a new result was derived showing that a ship turning in a steady state due to the influence of shallow water can incline inward, which is the turning direction.

  • 만재된 광탄선이 UKC가 작은 수역을 진입할 때 후진 기관을 사용하게 되면 통상의 경우와는 달리 급격한 좌선회 현상이 발생한다. 이 현상은 속력이 4노트 이상에서는 두드러지게 발생하나 3노트 미만에서는 거의 발생하고 있지 않다. 이 연구에서는 포항항에 만재된 광탄선이 선석에 접안할 때까지의 발생하는 현상을 기술하고 그 원인을 밝혀 보고자 한다. 이 원인 추후 이론적인 검토가 필요한 사항이지만 이 연구에서는 추론 가능한 사항은 선미부의 방형비척계수(CB), 작은 UKC 등을 고려한 통상적으로 작용하는 배수류의 측압작용과 좌현 선미의 선저에 배수류의 쌓임에 의한 힘으로 검토하고자 한다.

  • The worldwide sizes of container ships are rapidly increasing. The container ship size in 2005, which was about 9,200 TEU has increased to 24,000 TEU in recent times. In addition to the increase in the sizes of the container ships, the arrivals/departures of large container vessels to/from Korea have also increased. Hence, the necessity for reviewing safe passage of such vessels is emphasized. In the present study, a 24,000 TEU container vessel was used as a model ship to calculate the under-keel clearance (UKC) at Gadeok Channel through which vessels must pass to arrive at Busan New Port, in accordance with the Korean Port and Fishing Port Design Standards and Commentary. In addition, the maximum allowable speed that meets UKC standards was calculated using various squat formulas, whose results were then compared with the current speed limit standards. The analysis results show that Busan New Port requires 10% marginal water depth, and the squat that meets this requirement is 0.95 m. Gadeok Channel requires 15% marginal water depth, and the squat that meets this requirement is 1.78 m; in this case, the maximum allowable speed is calculated as 15 kts. Busan New Port has set the speed limit as 12 kts, which is higher than the calculated 11 kts. Thus, speed limit reconsideration is required in terms of safety. However, the set speed limit for Gadeok Channel is 12 kts, which is lower than the calculated 15 kts. Thus, additional considerations may be provided to increase the speed limits for smooth navigational passage of vessels. The present study, however, is constrained by the fact that it reflects only a limited number of elements in the UKC and allowable speed calculations; therefore, more accurate UKC and safe speed values can be suggested based on extended studies to this research.

  • The last decades have witnessed an increasingly indispensible role of high performance computing (HPC) in science, business and financial sectors, as well as military and national security areas. To introduce key aspects of HPC to a broader community, an HPC session was organized for the first time ever for the United States and Korea Conference (UKC) during 2012. This paper summarizes four invited talks that each covers scientific HPC applications, large-scale parallel file systems, administration/maintenance of supercomputers, and green technology towards building power efficient supercomputers of the next generation.

  • In this study, Malachite Green (MG) dye removal from synthetic wastewaters by adsorption process using raw boron enrichment waste (BEW) and it's modifications (with acid and ultrasound) were aimed. 81% MG removal was obtained by BEW at optimum equilibrium conditions (time: 40 min., dosage: 500 mg/dm3, pH: 5-6, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). MG removal from wastewaters using acid modified boron enrichment waste (HBEW) was determined as 82% at optimum conditions (time: 20 min., dosage: 200 mg/dm3, pH: 10, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). For ultrasound modified BEW (UBEW), the highest MG removal percent was achieved as 84% at optimum conditions (time: 30 min, dosage: 375 mg/ dm3, pH: 8, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). The equilibrium data of Malachite Green was evaluated for BEW, HBEW and UBEW adsorbents by using sorption isotherms such as Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin models, out of which Langmuir model (R2 = 0.971, 0.987 and 0.984) gave better correlation and maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 147.05, 434.78 and 192.30 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation for sorption of MG onto wastes. A look at thermodynamic data reveals that natural sorption is spontaneous and endothermic because of free negative energy exchange and positive change in enthalpy, respectively. The results indicated that boron enrichment waste, and HCl and ultrasound-modified boron enrichment waste served as good alternative adsorbents in dye removal from wastewater.

  • Soyasaponins are phytochemicals of major interest fur their health benefits. Chemical investigation of a soybean phytochemical concentrate resulted in the isolation and identification of triterpenoid saponins. The MeOH extraction of defatted hypocotyl separated from soybeans was peformed by the automated solvent extractor (ASE). Fractionation was performed on a flash column ($150mm{\times}40mm$ i.d.) packed with a preparative $C_{18}$ reverse phase bulk packing material $(125\AA,\;55-105{\mu}m)$ and monitored at 210 nm, and collected 14 fractions. Consequent Fsat preparative column liquid chromatography (Fast PCLC) was performed for the purification of Fraction-I (Fr-I) collected from the fraction 8 and 9 of flash chromatography. Fsat PCLC was performed on a Luna $C_{18}\;10{\mu}m,\;100{\AA}$, semipreparative reverse phase column ($250cm{\times}50mm$ i.d.) for the purification of isolated unknown compound (Fr-I-2). Chemical structure of acetyl soyasaponin $A_1\;(MW:1436.6,\;C_{67}H_{104}O_{33})$ was identified and determined by a combination of extensive NMR ($^1H-NMR$, 400 MHz; $^{13}C-NMR$, 100 MHz; DEPT), IR, UV, and ESI-MS analysis.
