Physical experiments have been performed in a wave basin to investigate change of the wave loading on the crown wall under obliquely incident wave conditions. The measurement was carried out with wave incidence angle of 0, 15, 30 and 45°. The pressure transducers were placed on the front and bottom face of the crown wall to obtain horizontal and uplift force as well. It was found that both the horizontal and vertical force decreases with the incidence angle. Based on the analysis of the experimental data, a formula was suggested to estimate the reduction rate of horizontal and vertical forces under obliquely incident waves.

A MCS technique is represented to stochastically analyze the uncertainties of wave forces exerted on the upright sections of composite breakwaters. A stochastical models for horizontal and uplift wave forces can be straightforwardly formulated as a function of the probabilistic characteristics of maximum wave height. Under the assumption of wave forces followed by extreme distribution, the behaviors of relative wave forces to Goda's wave forces are studied by the MCS technique. Double-truncated normal distribution is applied to take the effects of uncertainties of scale and shape parameters of extreme distribution into account properly. Averages and variances of relative wave forces are quantitatively calculated with respect to the exceedance probabilities of maximum design wave height. It is found that the averages of relative wave forces may be decreased consistently with the increases of the exceedance probabilities. In particular, the averages on uplift wave force are evaluated slightly larger than those on horizontal wave force, but the variations of coefficient of the former are adversely smaller than those of the latter. It means that the uncertainties of uplift wave forces are smaller than those of horizontal wave forces in the same condition of the exceedance probabilities. Therefore, the present results could be useful to the reliability based-design method that require the statistical properties about the uncertainties of wave forces.

In this study, two-dimensional physical experiment was carried out to examine the applicability of the three formulas(Takahashi and Shimosako, 1994; Tabet-Aoul and Lambert, 2003; Li, 2007), which were proposed to calculate the wave forces acting on perforated caisson breakwaters. In order to quantitatively compare the measured with the estimated values based on the wave formulas, the refined index of agreement and the coefficient of determination were calculated, by which the degree of agreement was evaluated. Among the three wave formulas, DUT formula (Li, 2007) showed the smallest deviation from the measured forces, whereas Takahashi formula (Takahashi and Shimosako, 1994) showed the largest deviation. Meanwhile, comparison of the magnitude of the measured wave forces with those from the three formulas revealed that DUT formula slightly underestimate, while the others overestimate the measured forces.

Design formula for estimating the wave loading on the perforated caisson having two wave chambers is yet available. In this study, the analysis results are presented with the experimental data for the wave force acting on such a breakwater model. Based on the experimental results, it was able to clarify the variation of wave action according to five different wave phases that are associated with peak wave loading at the three vertical walls. Then the force adjustment factor for double-chamber caisson was estimated, similarly as Takahashi and Shimosako (1994), which needs to be further validated with subsequent experiments and practical application in the field.

장대 케이슨 방파제에 작용하는 다방향 불규칙파랑의 파력 평활화 계수를 계산하였다. 다방향 불규칙파랑의 주파수 스펙트럼으로는 Bretschneider-Mitsuyasu 스펙트럼을 사용하였고, 방향 스펙트럼은 Mitsuyasyu 타입의 스펙트럼을 적용하였다. 계산 결과 단일 케이슨의 길이가 길수록, 주파향의 입사각이 클수록 평활화 계수는 감소하였다. 다양한 에 대해서도 계산하였으며, 가 클수록 평활화계수는 규칙파와 비슷한 경향을 보였다.

This paper reports on a recent investigation to determine criteria for the design of rubble-mound breakwaters. Existing theories and empirica] equations have been carefully reviewed and a new relation is proposed for the determination of optimum weight of armor unit of rubble-mound breakwater. A new parameter is introduced into the new semi-theoretical equation, which is closely related with the surface particle velocity of wave motion. The laboratory data reported by van der Meer(1987) were used for the determination of proper relations of empiricat parameters introduced into the new empirical equation.

국내 지진해일에 관한 연구는 범람 여부의 예측과 이에 대한 대비에 관하여 중점적으로 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 구조물에 직접적으로 피해를 주는 파력에 관한 연구는 거의 전무한 실정이다. 특히, 지진해일 1차 대피소는 지진해일 내습에 의한 파력에 대하여 안정하게 설계되어야 한다. 이를 연구하기 위한 방법으로 수리모형실험과 3D 모형을 이용한 수치모형실험의 두 가지 방법이 있으나 시간과 비용이 많이 소요되고 실제 지형에 적용하기에 곤란하다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 장파에 의한 파력식과 기존의 2D 수치모형을 이용하여 실용적으로 파력을 계산할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고, 이를 국내 무역항 중 하나인 동해항에 적용하였다.

Physical experiments were conducted to establish an empirical formula that predicts the wave force on the upside of the pavement behind crown wall of rubble mound seawall due to wave overtopping as well as the uplift force on the downside of the pavement. The experiments were performed by different conditions of the parapet, water depth, relative freeboard, and thickness of the armour layer. Then, the wave force on the upside and downside of the pavement behind the crown wall was analyzed. The parameters that affect the wave overtopping force and the uplift force were identified and empirical formulae were suggested for evaluating the forces on the pavement.

지금까지 실무에서는 경사식 방파제 적정 단면 결정시 피복재 산정 및 설계파에 대한 파력을 산정하여 상치콘크리트 구조물의 안정성을 검토하는 것이 전부였다 하지만 현장에서 발생하는 상황은 더 많은 변수들이 작용하는 것을 보여 주고 있다. 예를 들면 파에 의하여 발생하는 투과파 및 월파로 제체의 내부 및 배면 석재의 이탈이 발생하는 경우는 익히 보아 왔던 일이지만, 반대로 월파가 발생하지 않았는데도 불구하고 제체의 침하와 배면의 석재에 이탈 즉 세굴이 발생하는 경우도 있다. (중략)

A new load surface method for reliability of caisson type breakwater was proposed. Linear functions for horizontal wave force and uplift force were estimated by using water level and wave height then they were applied to the reliability analysis of breakwater using first order reliability method(FORM). In the numerical example, sliding and overturning failure probability of caisson type breakwater were analyzed by using load surface and they were compared with those by Monte Carlo simulation.
