The structural stability as well as economical efficiency of the wind sensitive structures are strongly dependant on accurate evaluation of the design wind speed. Present study demonstrates a useful wind data obtained at the wind monitoring tower in the Kwangyang Suspension Bridge site. Moreover the Measure-Correlate-Predict (MCP) method has been applied to estimate the long-term wind data at the bridge site based on the wind data at the local weather station. The measured data indicate that the turbulent intensities and roughness exponents are strongly affected by the wind direction and surrounding topography. The new design wind speed based on MCP method is 20m/s lower than that at the original estimation, and the resulting design wind load is only 36% of the old prediction. The field measurement of wind data is recommended to ensure the economical and secure design of the wind sensitive structures because the measured wind data reveal much different from the estimated one due to local topography.

In this study, the program was modified by adding the empirical formula of EurOtop (2018) to enable calculation of wave overtopping on armoured slope structures in the FUNWAVE-TVD model using the fully nonlinear Boussinesq equation. The validity of the modified numerical model was verified by comparing it with CLASH data and experiment data for the rubble mound structure. This model accurately reproduced the change in wave overtopping rate according to the difference in the roughness factor of the armoured block, and well reproduced the rate of decrease in wave overtopping rate due to the increase in relative freeboard. The overtopping rate of the armoured slope structures showed significant differences depending on the positioning condition of the armoured blocks. When Tetrapods were placed with regular positioning, the overtopping rate increased significantly compared to when they were placed with random positioning, and it was consistent with when they were placed with Rocks. Meanwhile, when rocks were placed in one row, the wave overtopping rate was greater than when rocks were placed in two rows, which is believed to be due to the influence of the roughness and permeability of the structure's surface.

Surface topography plays a decisive role in determining the performance of several precision components. In particular, the surface roughness of semiconductor devices affects the precision of the circuit. In this regard, the surface topography of a given surface needs to be appropriately assessed. Typically, the average roughness is used as one of the main indicators of surface finish quality because it is influenced by both dynamic and static parameters. Owing to the increasing demand for such accurate and reliable surface measurement systems, studies are continuously being conducted to understand the parameters of surface roughness and measure the average roughness with high reliability. However, the differences in the measurement methods of surface roughness are not clearly understood. Hence, in this study, the surface roughness of the back of a silicon wafer was measured using both contact and noncontact methods. Subsequently, a comparative analysis was conducted according to various surface roughness parameters to identify the differences in surface roughness depending on the measurement method. When using a 3D laser confocal microscope, even smaller surface asperities can be measured compared with the use of a 3D profiler. The results are expected to improve the understanding of the surface roughness characteristics of precision components and be used as a useful guideline for selecting the measurement method for surface topography assessment.

In this study, we assess impact of spatial resolution of radar rainfall and a distributed hydrologic model on parameter estimation and rainfall-runoff response. Radar data measured by S-band polarimetric radar located at Mt. Bisl in the year of 2012 are used for the comparative study. As different rainfall estimates such as R-KDP, R-Z, and R-ZDR show good agreement with ground rainfall, R-KDP are applied for rainfall-runoff modeling due to relatively high accuracy in terms of catchment averaged and gauging point rainfall. GRM (grid based rainfall-runoff model) is implemented for flood simulations at the Geumho River catchment with spatial resolutions of 200m, 500m, and 1000m. Automatic calibration is performed by PEST (model independent parameter estimation tool) to find suitable parameters for each spatial resolution. For 200m resolution, multipliers of overlandflow and soil hydraulic conductivity are estimated within stable ranges, while high variations are found from results for 500m and 1000m resolution. No tendency is found in the estimated initial soil moisture. When parameters estimated for different spatial resolution are applied for other resolutions, 200m resolution model shows higher sensitivity compared to 1000m resolution model.

In this study, the effects of the surface topographical characteristics on the meteorological fields are examined in a mesoscale meteorlolgical model. We calculated the direct solar radiation using the illumination angle considering the inclination of topography and tried to find out its effect on meteorological fields. In above experiments, we selected two cases for the clear day and the cloudy day to show the effect of weather and represented the results for two cases. In the correction of the direct solar radiation, the results of two cases indicate that there are obvious differences on the steep Taeback and Soback mountains. And on the time-series analysis the east-facing slope of these mountains receives the more direct solar radiation about $10-60W/m^2$ in the morning hours but lesser in the afternoon hours than the horizontal surface while it is opposite on the west-facing slope. And the results mentioned above are more obvious at clear day. With the same analysis method, at clear day, the surface skin temperature is higher at all hours than that on horizontal surface on the both of slope. At cloudy and rainy day, the surface skin temperature on the east-facing slope is higher in the morning hours but lower in the afternoon hours than that on horizontal surface. But on the west-facing slope, it is higher at all hours than that on horizontal surface. In the two cases, the temperature considering the slope of surface is almost higher than that on the horizontal surface. The wind is stronger than that on the horizontal surface with increasing pressure gradient force according as increasing temperature gradient around the Taeback and the Soback mountains.

This paper presents roughness effects on flow characteristics and efficiency of multi-stage axial compressor using numerical simulation. which is carried out with a commercially available software, CFX-TASCflow. In this paper, the third of four stages of GE low pressure compressor is considered including me stator and rue rotor. Mixing-plane approach is adopted to model the interface between the stator and the rotor: it is appropriate for steady state simulation. First, a flat plate simulation was performed to validate how exact the numerical simulation predicts the roughness effect for smooth and rough walls. Then GE compressor model was calculated about at each roughness height. Concluding, very small roughness height largely affects the performance of compressor and the increasing rate of loss decrease as roughness height increase.

LSIV와 같이 영상해석기술을 이용한 유속측정방법은 하천의 표면유속을 측정하기 때문에 유량 산정을 위해서는 측정된 표면유속을 평균유속으로 환산할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 LSIV를 하천 유량 측정에 적용하기 위해서 개수로 흐름의 연직유속분포에 대한 기존 이론을 검토하고 하상 및 흐름조건에 대한 수리실험을 통해 표면유속으로부터 평균유속을 추정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였으며, 이를 실제 하천 측정을 통해 검증하였다. 수리실험결과 수표면 영역의 유속감소를 확인하였으며, 이러한 유속감소는 조도에 비해 Froude 수의 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실험결과로부터 표면유속으로부터 평균유속을 추정하기 위해, 표면유속 보정량을 이용하여 후류법칙의 유속분포를 보정하는 방법과 평균유속과 표면유속의 비를 이용한 방법을 제시하였다.

연속적인 유량자료의 생산을 위해 일반적으로 단일 곡선 형태의 수위-유량관계가 사용되고 있다. 그러나 홍수수문곡선 상승부와 하강부의 기울기, 조도계수, 하상경사 등 흐름에 영향을 미치는 여러 인자에 의해 수위-유량곡선은 단일 형태가 아니라 복잡한 루프형태로 나타나게 된다. 지금까지 이론적으로는 이와 같은 수위-유량관계의 특성이 알려져 있긴 하였지만 복잡한 특성을 규명하는 것이 곤란하여 구체적으로 분석되지 못한 것이 현실이다. 이와 같은 특성의 분석을 위해서는 하천형상과 더불어 하천 흐름의 동역학적인 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 댐 직하류 지점의 수위와 유량의 분석을 통하여 실제 발생하고 있는 수위-유량관계의 복잡성을 확인하였고, 수치모형에 의해 복잡한 수위-유량관계를 재현하였다. 분석 결과 모든 지점에서 수위-유량관계가 매우 복잡한 형태로 나타나 일반적으로 사용되는 단일곡선과는 많은 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 수치모형에 의해 이와 같은 복잡한 수위-유량관계가 잘 재현될 수 있음을 증명하였다. 이와 같은 결과는 기존에 사용되고 있는 단일 곡선형 수위 -유량관계가 많은 오차를 포함하고 있음을 나타내며, 적절한 수치모형에 의해 이와 같은 한계를 극복할 수 있는 것을 나타낸다고 할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 ADCP를 이용하여 국내 하천에서의 연직유속분포 특성을 살펴보았다. 먼저, 김치영 등 (2004)의 10점법 측정 자료와의 비교를 통하여 power law와 log law로 ADCP의 측정불가역의 유속분포를 추정하는 방법을 검증하였다. 또한, 국내 하천의 다양한 흐름조건을 고려한 4개 지점, 총 26개 자료를 사용하여 각각의 ADCP 측정자료마다 최적의 power 식과 log 식을 구했으며, 이 식들로부터 구한 수심평균유속을 ADP-stationary (고정된 지수 1/6)의 평균유속과 비교하였다. 그 결과 power law로 ADCP 측정불가역을 외삽하는 경우 하천의 흐름에 적절한 지수를 사용했는지 여부가 평균유속의 정확도에 큰 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 이에, Limerinos (1970)의 조도계수 계산식과 ISO (1997)에 제시된 power law 지수식을 토대로 측정 자료의 power law 지수와 하상재료, 수심의 상관관계를 살펴보았다.

실제 하천에서는 지형적 이산화에 따른 복잡성으로 인해 마름/젖음 현상이 발생하며 그로 인해 작은 수심에서 수치해석의 안정성에 영향을 주어 해석을 불가능하게 한다. 자연수로는 저수시 및 평수시에 물을 소통시키는 주수로부와 홍수시 수위 상승에 따라 주수로부에서부터 범람하게 되는 홍수터로 구성된다. 홍수터는 홍수류의 일시적인 저장이나 하류로 흐름을 전달하는 복합수로의 부분으로 사용된다. 자연수로에서 이와같은 흐름구조는 불규칙한 단면형상, 조도계수 등에 의해서 더욱 복잡하게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 복잡한 지형과 자연 하천구조에 대한 동역학적인 흐름특성을 해석하고 오염물질의 이송-확산 해석 및 토사이송 해석과 연계하기 위해서 개발된 RAM-2 모형에 동수역학적 해석을 실시하였다. RAM-2 모형에는 대상하도에 대한 마름/젖음의 처리를 위해 흐름의 시간별 수위상승 및 하강 속도를 고려한 Deforming Grid 기법을 적용하였으며, 이에 대한 적용성을 검토하기 위해 마름/젖음 조건을 가지는 실험수로와 홍수터를 가진 사다리꼴 단면 그리고 실제 하도에 대해 적용하여 그 결과를 살펴보았다.
