The aim of this study is to compare the numerical results obtained by 2-D and 3-D models which are used to examine the wave field around a permeable submerged breakwater. At first, the numerical model, which is able to consider the flow through a porous medium with inertial, laminar and turbulent resistance terms and determine the eddy viscosity with LES turbulent model, is used and validated by comparing with existing experimental data. And then, the numerical test on the wave field around a permeable submerged breakwater is performed. It is revealed from the numerical results that, at the onshore side of the submerged breakwater, the wave height by 2-D analysis is higher than that by 3-D analysis. Also, the time-averaged mean flow around a submerged breakwater is discussed in detail.

In this study, the coupled-numerical model has been newly developed to investigate numerically scouring and deposition around a coastal structure like a submerged breakwater using a numerical wave model and a lagrangian particle model for sand transport. As a numerical wave model, LES-WASS-2D (Hur and Choi, 2008) is adopted. The model is able to consider the flow through a porous midium with inertial, laminar and turbulent resistance term and determine the eddy viscosity with LES turbulence model. Distinct element method (Cundall and Strack, 1979), which is able to apply to many dynamical analysis of particulate media, as a lagrangian particle model for sand transport is newly coupled to the numerical wave model. The numerical simulation has been carried out to examine the scour problem in front of an impermeable submerged breakwater using the newly coupled-numerical model. The numerical results has been compared qualitatively with an existing experimental data and then its applicability has been discussed.

벽면에 충돌하는 액체 분무의 충돌 거동과 액적 비산에 관하여 실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 액체 분무는 홀노즐에 의해 직경 40mm의 충돌판에 분사하게 된다. 액체 분무는 반경방향으로 퍼져나가 5개의 영역으로 분류되어 나타내게 된다. 난류 혹은 층류 분무의 경우, 충돌판에 충돌한 후 두꺼운 액막을 형성하게 되며, 이러한 상태에서 충돌하는 분무의 비산량은 매우 적으며 충돌 거리에 영향을 받지 않는다. 한편, 파동이 있는 분무의 충돌은 수력도약(Hydraulic jump)과 함께 반경방향으로 엷은 액막을 형성하게 되며 비산율도 증가하게 된다. 액체분무의 초속도가 증가하면 비산율도 증가하게 된다. 분열이 일어난 후에 충돌하는 파동 분무의 비산율은 분열이 일어나기 전에 비해 약 2~3배 정도 크게 나타난다. 비산율은 웨버수(Weber number)를 이용하여 요약할 수가 있다.

The accretion disk with viscosity including collisions is examined. The diffusion process are also considered for a given mass distribution in the disk. Under such a circumstance the diffusion coefficient is simply proportional to 1/${\sqrt{r}}$ The disk rapidly transfers the turbulent angular momentum and the wave front toward the outer cold regions. Then an instability situation occurs in the disk.

This study evaluates the variation characteristics of wave fields (transmission ratio, wave height, time-averaged velocity and time-averaged turbulent kinetic energy) for two-dimensional low-crested structure by olaFlow model based on the two-phases flow numerically. In addition, the present numerical results are verified by comparing with the existing experimental results. The time-averaged velocity, one of various numerical results is formed counterclockwise circulating cell on the front of structure and is occurred strong uni-directional flow on onshore side. It is shown that these are closely related to the factors such as overtopping, etc.

The present paper studies the effect of the slope gradient of a fully permeable submerged breakwater using a newly developed numerical model that is able to consider the flow through a porous midium with inertial, laminar and turbulent resistance terms, i.e. simulate directly WAve-Structure (submerged breakwater)-Sand seabed interaction and can determine the eddy viscosity with LES turbulence model in 2-Dimensional wave field (LES-WASS-2D). The developed model was validated through the comparison with an existing experimental data, and further used for various numerical experiments in oder to investigate the complicated hydrodynamics on the varying slope gradient of permeable submerged breakwater. We found an acceptable phenomenon, as we expect intuitively, that reflection and transmission coefficients decrease simultaneously as slope gradient decrease. In addition, the breaking point, the circulation flow and mean vorticity around a submerged breakwater are throughly discussed.

최근에 태풍 매미 등 이상 기후로 인한 기상이변이 빈번히 발생함에 따라 그에 대한 대처방안을 모색하기 위해 2005년 해양수산부에서는 지역 및 해역별 특성을 분석하여 종전 설계기준을 강화하였다. 하지만, 기존에 설계된 항만 구조물의 마루높이 및 피복재 중량 등이 새로 개정된 설계기준에 미치지 못하는 등 안전성에 대한 문제가 발생하고 있으며, 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 기존 방파제를 보강하는 여러 방식이 제안되고 있다. 그 중 부유식방파제는 해수의 소통을 방해하지 않는 친환경적인 구조물로써, 연약지반에 시공이 가능하고 시공 시 오탁이 적게 발생하여 시공이 편하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 구조물의 해체 및 보강시 건설폐기물을 발생시키지 않는 친환경적인 구조물이기 때문에 새로운 방식의 대체 외곽항만구조물로 관심을 받고 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 사석경사제 전면에 부유식구조물을 설치하여 방파제 보강하는 방안을 제시하고자, 부유식구조물을 통과한 파랑이 사석경사제와 만나 발생하는 처오름높이를 분석하였다. 본 수치모의에서는 유체의 점성 및 난류특성을 포함하고 있는 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 그대로 해석하는 2차원 수치파동수조(CADMAS-SURF)를 이용하여 수치 모의을 수행하였다. 부유식구조물은 불투수성구조물로 수면에 고정시키는 방식을 적용하여 사석경사제의 전면에 설치하였으며, 고정된 부유식구조물의 흘수심을 변화시켜 사석경사제에서의 처오름높이를 산정하였다.

On the many coasts of South Korea, including the eastern side, it has been recently increasing the coastal disaster such as the severe coastal erosion and road damage swept away by the wave. As one of the alternatives to prevent the coastal disaster, it has been widely studied the coastal disaster reduction method by the Low-Crested Structure (LCS) in the many countries including several European countries. In this study, the olaFLow model is used to simulate the permeable LCS and wave field of the LCS through the three-dimensional irregular waves numerical analysis on the basis of the previous research. From the numerical analysis, it is evaluated the H_rms, nearshore current and time-averaged turbulent kinetic energy. In addition, the pattern of nearshore current and spatial distribution of time-averaged turbulent kinetic energy are compared with the case of submerged breakwater under the irregular wave fields. As one of significant results, it is confirmed that the pattern of nearshore current is different with the case of submerged breakwater.

The analysis of long- period sea level variations with tidal record data around Korea, Japan, and Russia shows that about half of the variations are due to atmospheric influences. The sea level variation by water movements is the largest in the coasts along the Tsushima Current, and becomes smaller in the distant areas. It suggests that the sea level varications are related with the Tsushima Current. The effect of sea level variations to ocean circulation has been studied with a numerical model allowing barotropic sea level fluctuations, like the result with GCM (Semtner) model by Pang et al.(1993), the present model also shows that waters basically flow along isobaths over the last China Sea after geostyophic adjustment around Taiwan. However, barotropic sea level fluctuation makes the basic circulation in the Yellow Sea, which waters flow into the central Yellow Sea and out along the west coast of the Korean Peninsula. Besides this, barotropic sea level fluctuation makes long period waves over the shelf area as the Kuroshio varies. By the waves, the basic circulation in the Yellow Sea is disturbed, so that the flow pattern of oppositely flowing into the Yellow Sea along the west roast of the Korean Peninsula appears. In the Yellow Sea circulation, it seems that northwest winds strengthen the basic circulat ion In winter, and southeast winds strengthen the disturbed circulation in summer. Another point appeared by the long period wave is that the Tsushima Current possibly originates in different areas. There have been two opposing argues on the area in which the Tsushima Current originates the southwest sea of Kyushu Island and the adjacent sea of Taiwan. Through this study, we found that both of them seem to be important areas for the origin of the Tsushima Current, and one of them is possibly strengthened by long period waves. The long period waves given by the variation of the Kuroshio Current in the adjacent sea of Taiwan propagate to the Korea Strait as forced waves. The wave continuously propagates to the last Sea through the eastern channel, but reflects in the western channel due to bottom topography. The reflected waves propagate southwestward along the last China Sea as free waves and determine the sea level variations with forced waves.

In recent years, countries like Europe and Japan have been involved in many researches on the Low-Crested Structure (LCS) which is the method to protect beach erosion and it is regarded as an alternative to the submerged breakwaters, and compiled its results and released the design manual. In the past, studies on LCS have focused on two-dimensional wave transmission and calculating required weight of armor units, and these were mainly examined and discussed based on experiments. In this study, three-dimensional numerical analysis is performed on permeable LCS. The open-source CFD code olaFlow based on the Navier-Stokes momentum equations is applied to the numerical analysis, which is a strongly nonlinear analysis method that enables breaking and turbulence analysis. As a result, the distribution characteristics of the LCS such as water level, water flow, and turbulent kinetic energy were examined and discussed, then they were carefully compared and examined in the case of submerged breakwaters. The study results indicate that there is a difference between the flow patterns of longshore current near the shoreline, the spatial distribution of longshore and on-offshore directions of mean turbulent kinetic energy in case of submerged breakwaters and LCS. It is predicted that the difference in these results leads to the difference in sand movement.
