Abstract

In this study, a total of 51 cases of hydraulic model tests has been conducted for various wave conditions and slope angles of breakwater to develop a stability formula for Rakuna-IV armoring a rubble-mound breakwater. The stability number of the formula is expressed as a function of relative damage, number of waves, structural slope, and surf similarity parameter. The stability formula is derived separately for plunging and surging waves, the greater of which is used. The transitional surf similarity parameter from plunging waves to surging waves is also presented. Lastly, to explain the stability of Rakuna-IV to the engineers who are familiar with the stability coefficient in the Hudson formula, the required weight of Rakuna-IV is calculated for varying significant wave height for typical plunging and surging wave conditions, which is then compared with those of the Hudson formula using several different stability coefficients.

본 연구에서는 사석 방파제 위에 피복한 Rakuna-IV에 대하여 파랑조건과 구조물의 경사를 변화시키며 51가지 실험을 수행하여 안정공식을 유도하였다. 안정공식에서 안정수는 상대피해, 파의 개수, 구조물 경사 및 surf similarity parameter의 함수로 표시된다. 안정공식은 권파와 쇄기파에 대하여 따로따로 유도되었으며, 둘 중 안정수를 크게 계산하는 공식을 사용한다. 또한 권파와 쇄기파의 경계가 되는 critical surf similarity parameter를 제시하였다. 마지막으로, Hudson 공식에서 사용되는 안정계수에 익숙한 기술자들에게 Rakuna-IV의 안정성을 설명하기 위하여, 대표적인 권파와 쇄기파 조건에 대하여 유의파고의 변화에 따른 Rakuna-IV의 소요중량을 계산하고, 이를 몇몇 다른 안정계수를 사용한 Hudson 공식의 결과와 비교하였다.
