Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aerodynamic characteristics of ships have been studied for the purpose of improving the energy efficiency of marine transportation, and the purpose of improving the safety of ships in stormy weather. The three-dimensional shape data of the upper structure of a ship, which is necessary for the wind tunnel experiment and the computational fluid dynamics simulation, was obtained by the application of the small unmanned aerial vehicle and the three-dimensional reconstruction technology. The shape data was obtained at low cost and in a short period of time by using the new method. The three-dimensional shape of the equipment and superstructure on the deck of a training ship “Wakashio-maru” operated by Toyama National College of Technology, was successfully reconstructed in a computer by analyzing the aerial image data of the ship.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究は,ごく近年において急速に発展した複数の先端技術要素を複合的に応用することによって,運用中の船舶の風洞実験にかかるコストを大幅に抑制する,新しいワークフローを構築するものである。この独創的な手法により,運用中の船舶をドックに入れることなく,そのエネルギー効率や安全性の効果的な向上策を効率的に検討することが可能となる。また実際の改修工事に際しても,あらかじめ実船の形状データに合わせて制作された空力的付加物を短期間で装着することにより,海運会社は機会損失を被ることなく運用中の船舶の省エネルギー化を進めることも可能となるだろうと期待される。
