Abstract

Two-dimensional hydraulic experiments were performed to assess the impact of artificial seaweed on wave energy attenuation, and coastal erosion prevention. In this experimental study, erosion geometry and wave reflection coefficients were determined for normal and stormy incident waves, with and without artificial seaweed. The coastline of beaches without artificial vegetation was observed to retreat, and the longshore bar height increased in normal and stormy conditions. Through the introduction of artificial seaweed (of widths 0.8 m, and 1.6 m), the coastline was found to advance in the offshore direction due to material deposition. From these results, it is shown that artificial seaweed alters the cross-section of beaches, such that it is possible to prevent coastline erosion.

본 연구는 인공식생에 의한 파 에너지 저감과 해빈침식방지를 평가하기 위해서 2차원 수리모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험에서는 인공식생 유무 및 평상파/폭풍파 입사 조건의 규칙파 영향하에서 해빈단면 변화와 파고 반사율을 조사하였다. 주요 연구 결과로는 1) 인공식생이 없는 조건에서는 파 조건에 의해서 연안사주 높이가 증가하고 해안선의 후퇴가 나타났으나 2) 1B(폭=0.8 m) 또는 2B(폭=1.6 m)의 인공식생을 설치한 조건에서는 해안선의 전진 및 퇴적현상이 발생하였다. 이를 통해 인공식생이 해빈 단면에 영향을 줄 수 있으며 해빈침식방지공법으로써 적용가능함을 알 수 있었다.
