무인선 USBL의 설치 및 운용을 위한 기계시스템의 다물체 동역학 시뮬레이션 기반 동적 안전성 검토에 관한 연구

Abstract

This paper considers the simulation-based installation and operation safety analysis of installation and operation machinery of USBL as underwater equipment in operation environments. The simulation model of this mechanical system was developed using flexible multibody dynamics simulation technology. Operation and environmental conditions were applied using dynamic forces model considering ocean environments. The developed simulation model was used to evaluate operation safety through eigenvalue analysis, dynamic forces analysis, and structural analysis. As the analysis results, the operation safety was very low in extreme operation condition due to increase of dynamic loads by VIV effect. It was not a problem because safety factor had more than 2.0 in this case. However, the operation safety should be further strengthened because the USBL and LARS was installed and utilized in unmanned vessel with automatic controls. In order to improve safety by avoiding VIV frequency, we redesigned the USBL pole.
