The purpose of this study is to review and overcome the limits of the existing design wave model applied to such waters as those located inside bays or near islands where the impact of wind influenced waves are more dominant, due to the nature of topographic isolation, than the influence of direct waves coming from the open sea. Although the existing model for an inside bay design wave is excellent for considering wind factors and very adaptable to topographically complicated areas compared to other models, it is difficult to show the wave diffractions and reflections caused by large scale structures or topographic features in the region. The study examined the various methods capable of taking into account wave diffraction, the angle of wave reflection, and changes in water depth. As a result of applying the modified design wave model to the target situation (inside bay or near island areas), it was found that the reliability of the design wave height around marine structures was improved, compared to the existing models. Therefore, it is fair to predict that the new model could provide more accurate design waves in the design of marine structures.

This study evaluates the variation characteristics of irregular wave fields for two-dimensional Low-Crested Structure (LCS) by olaFlow model based on the two-phases flow by numerical analysis. The numerical results of olaFlow model are verified by comparing irregular wave profile of target wave spectrum and measured one, and their spectra. In addition, spacial variation of irregular wave spectrum, wave transmission ratio, root-mean square wave height, time-averaged velocity and time-averaged turbulent kinetic energy by two-dimensional LCS are discussed numerically. The time-averaged velocity, one of the most important numerical results is formed counterclockwise circulating cell and clockwise nearshore current on the front of LCS, and strong uni-directional flow directing onshore side around still water level.

2중곡면 반파공의 월파 특성을 검토하기 위하여 입사파고 및 주기가 각각 다른 불규칙파를 대상으로 수리실험을 실시하였으며, 2중곡면 반파공과 직립형 구조물에 대해 동일한 조건으로 실험하여 이를 명확히 하였다. 특히 2중곡면 상부의 곡률반경에 따라 외해측으로 되돌리는 파랑의 비말효과에서 큰 차이가 있을 것에 착안하여 상부곡면부의 곡률반경이 증가한 정상 2중곡면 반파공(FSW)과 상부곡면부의 곡률반경이 감소한 역 2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)에 대해 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고 2중곡면 원호 크기의 비 B/D=0, 20%, 40%, 60% 및 80%인 경우에 대해서도 월파특성을 비교 검토하여 다음과 같은 결론를 얻었다. 1. 2중곡면 원호 크기의 비 B/D가 증가할수록 월파저지 효과가 개선됨을 확인 하였으며 최대 B/D가 0.8인 경우 0.2에 비해 50% 이상 월파유량이 감소하여 B/D의 변동에 따른 월파저지특성을 확인하였다. 2. 역2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)의 실험결과 기존 정상2중곡면 반파공(FSW)에 비하여 20%이상 월파량이 감소하고 있음을 알 수 있었으며 이는 2중곡면 상부측의 곡률 반경이 증가함에 따른 기하학적 특성에 의해 외해측으로의 되돌림 파랑(수괴)이 증가한 것으로 판단된다. 3. 동일한 마루높이에 대해 직립형 호안에 의한 월파량 비교결과 역 2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)의 경우 최대 80%이상의 월파량 저감 효과가 나타나는 것으로 검토되었다. 4. 월파저지의 측면에서 2중 곡면공에 비해 역2중 곡면공이 우수한 것으로 예측되었으나 2중곡면 반파공의 소파원리가 반파공의 원호내에서 쇄파를 야기하여 파에너지를 소멸하는 것이므로 쇄파를 유도하는 과정에서 충격쇄파압의 발생이 예측되는 바 이에 대한 계속적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

하천의 하구지역은 유역의 보전, 개발 논의가 매우 다양하게 전개되고 있는 지역으로 개발계획들로 인한 환경변화로 유출 특성 및 유사이동 변화에 따른 정밀한 조사연구를 통한 대처방안을 수립이 필요한 지역이다. 본 논문은 2차원 수치해석이 가능하고 복잡한 해안구조를 포함한 하구지역의 흐름해석이 가능한 MIKE21 FM 프로그램을 통하여 홍수기시의 조위조건변화에 따른 수치해석을 수행하여 자연하구역인 한강하구지역을 중심으로 수위 및 유사이동의 변화 특성을 분석하였다. 첨두유량 발생 시점과 하류경계조건의 변화에 따른 하구지역의 수위변화를 살펴보면, 대상 지역의 하천구간에 해당하는 전류수위표 지점에서 기수역 수로 지점에 비하여 변동폭이 가장 크게 나타났으며, 하류의 외해와 인접할수록 변동폭이 줄어드는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 대상지역의 상류구간은 하천유량의 영향이 크기 때문에 상류구간일수록 창조시간에 비하여 낙조시간이 길게 분포되는 것으로 나타난다. 유사이동의 특성은 하천의 유속이 크게 감소하는 부분에 퇴적이 발생되며 강화북수로의 단면이 급격하게 변화하는 석모도와 교동도사이의 수로, 염하수로의 입구부분에서는 퇴적층이 발달하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 한강하구와 같이 하구둑이 설치되지 않은 하천의 하구지역에 대해서는 상류와 하류 경계조건의 특성에 따라서 복잡한 수리학적 특성이 발생하기 때문에 개발이나 구조물 축조에 앞서 더욱 많은 현장조사와 특성분석을 통한 보다 정확한 경계조건의 구축이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

In order to verify a numerical model for the calculation of wave motion around an offshore barrier in shallow water, laboratory physical experiments are necessary. In this study, sample experiments are carried out on the wave and wave induced current fields due to a sloping bottom topography and on that due to an isolated structure from the coastline. The water body is divided into 4 levels, in which the current tracking floaters are deployed to measure the wave induced currents. Data measurement was continued using the limited wave gauges and current tracking floaters including a video camera from the top. The wave heights for the preselected surface and time-averaged velocity distributions at each level were measured in detail. The distribution of wave and current fields was analyzed precisely combining the whole measured laboratory data. Moreover, comprehensive analyses were carried out on non-linearity of wave transformation in terms of skewness and atiltness.

In this paper, the harbor tranquility problem is analysed by an improved boundary integral equation method. The effect of the diffracted wave transformation induced by the breakwater and structures located at a harbor mouth is considered. Partial reflection concept is also used to consider energy dissipation effects. The present model is verified by comparing the results of the model for rectangular and semi-circular harbors with the analytic solutions. they show a reasonable agreement. Also the wave height distribution of the HUPO harbor computed using the present model agree well to those from the previous hydraulic model tests. It also shows a good agreement with the results from the time-dependent mild slope equation model.

The geologic structure of the Yongil Bay was studied in detail based on high resolution seismic profiles. The seafloor trends NE to SW with a deeper part off the Kuryong Peninsula. The seafloor is rather smooth due to the Quaternary fluvial deposits in the lower part and muddy sediments in the upper part. The seafloor off Umockri is very irregular due to erosion where Tertiary sedimentary rocks crop out. The underlying basement rocks were strongly deformed with faults and folds. High-angled reverse faults mostly trend N-S and NNW-SSE and are indicative of westward thrusting. Normal faults in NW-SE and WNW-ESE directions occur locally. Large folding structures trend NE-SW nearshore area of Umockri. The geologic structure suggests that the bay was subject to compressional stress regimes trending E-W and/or NW-SE prior to the early Late Miocene.

The modal analysis was carried out for the total of 216 subface sediments of southern continental shelf of Korean peninsula. Sandy mud or muddy sand distributed in the range of 70∼100 m water depth revealed the bimodal type (sand and mud components). The relations of textural parameters obtained from every modal were consistent with those of shallow marine sediments. The characteristics of sand component between bimodal were as follows: (1) the distributions of mean grain size, sorting, shell content were repeatedly distributed like the directions of depth contour lines. (2) Sand component was composed of medium to fine sand (Mz, 1-3$\psi$) containing many shell fragments, a few pebbles, and iron-stained quartz. (3) The surface of quartz revealed the concordial breakage and V-shaped features formed at high energy environment. (4) In CM-pattern, sand component was plotted in rolling and bottom suspension area. These characteristics imply that sand component probably derives from shoreface sediments deposited at the beach environment.

An ecological study on subtidal macrobenthic fauna was conducted off the Namhaedo Island, south coast of Korea from July 2012 to April 2013. A total of 247 species of macrobenthos occurred with a mean density of $1,027ind./m^2$ and a mean biomass of $148.7g/m^2$. Polychaetes was the richest and most abundant faunal group that comprised 37% in both total species number and density whereas echinoderms were biomass-dominant faunal group that accounted for 44% of the mean biomass. There was a seasonal variation in the species richness and abundance of macrobenthos with more species in winter and higher density in spring. Mean faunal density was relatively high at the stations near Namhaedo Island, but gradually decreased toward offshore stations. The most dominant species in terms of density was an amphipod species, Eriopisella sechellensis which occurred as a top ranker during three seasons except spring recorded the fourth rank. E. sechellensis showed its high density at the near shore stations of Namhaedo Island, but this species did not occur around the entrance of Gwangyang and Saryang Bays where Theora fragilis and Lumbrineris longifolia showed high densities. In particular, Tharyx sp., recorded high density between Gwangyang Bay entrance and offshore after Sea Prince oil spill, did not occur in the same area during this study period. The bottom temperature and sorting value of the surface sediments were highly correlated to the spatial distribution of macrobenthic fauna from the Bio-Env analysis. From the cluster analysis, the study area has five station groups with more similar faunal affinities from inner area toward offshore area. Based on the SIMPER analysis T. fragilis, Magelona japonica, E. sechellensis, L. longifolia and Paraprionospio cordifolia were mainly contributed to the classification of station groups. From the BPI, benthic communities in the entrance of Gwangyang Bay and Saryang Bay were considered to be in a slightly polluted condition in contrast to the normal healthy community at the offshore of Namhaedo Island. These results suggested that the benthic community of this area should be regularly monitored to assess the health status of this benthic ecosystem.

The beach, a margin between the sea and the land, is an extremely dynamic zone, for it is here that the motion of the sea interacts with the sediment, rock of the land or the artificial barriers. In order to prohibit or retard erosions due to the extreme Typhoon or storm induced waves, man has constructed these of temporary or more permanent nature, but they caused problems of other erosions from the secondary effect of them and a bad influence on the seascape. In considering the energy available to accelerate sediment transport and erosion in the surf zone, where the waves are broken, and offshore beyond the breaker line, the wave height and the wave period should be taken account. Hence, we tried to present an applicability of the submerged artificial Bio-reefs analyzing waves by a numerical model such that they could reduce the wave power without the secondary effect and restoration of marine ecologies. A new technique of beach preservation is by artificial reefs with artificial and/or natural kelps or sea plants. By engineering the geometry of the nearshore reef, the wave attenuation ability of the feature can be optimized Higher, wider and longer reefs provide the greatest barrier against wave energy but material volumes, navigation hazards, placement methods and other factors require engineering considerations for the overall design of the nearshore reefs.
