Research Abstract

In ship structures, it is very useful to innovate the intelligent structures in which the sensors can detect the signs and the actuators can actively change the structural materials. By using the smart materials, lots of specimens and small models are manufactured and then the following technologies are developed. (1) In-site monitoring of structural safety in the outer shell of ships, i.e. health monitoring, (2) exhaust heat recovery system by regenerative control to get electric energy using Peltier element, (3) Passive control of ship vibration and recovery system to earn electricity by using Piezo element, (4) Structural shape change of bow of the boat, i.e. morphing technology, (5) Simplifying method of the complicated electric motor mechanism by alternative way due to smart materials, and so on.
