An analytic solution to the extended mild-slope equation was derived for waves propagating over an axi-symmetric pit. The water depth inside the pit was in proportion to a power of radial distance from the center of pit. The equation was transformed into the ordinary differential equation using the method of separation of variables. The coefficients of differential terms were expressed as an explicit form composing of the phase and group velocities. The bottom curvature and the square of bottom slope terms, which were added to the extended mild-slope equation, were expressed as power series. Finally, using the Frobenius series, the analytic solution to the extended mild-slope equation was derived. The present analytic solution was validated by comparing with the numerical solution obtained from FEM.

In this study, we derive the extended mild-slope equation in terms of the velocity potential using the Euler-Lagrange equation. First, we follow Kim and Bai (2004) who derive the complementary mild-slope equation in terms of the stream function using the Euler-Lagrange equation and we compare their equation to the existing extended mild-slope equations of the velocity potential. Second, we derive the extended mild-slope equation in terms of the velocity potential using the Euler-Lagrange equation. In the developed equation, the higher-order bottom variation terms are newly developed and found to be the same as those of Massel (1993) and Chamberlain and Porter (1995). The present study makes wide the area of coastal engineering by developing the extended mild-slope equation with a way which has never been used before.

Following the approach of Ebersole (1985), water wave transformation is predicted using the eikonal equation and transport equation for wave energy which are reduced from the extended mild-slope equation of Massel (1993), and also the irrotationality of wave number vectors. The higher-order bottom effect terms, i.e., squared bottom slope and bottom curvature, are neglected in the study of Ebersole but are included in the present study. It was expected that, if these terms are included in this study, the approach would give more accurate solution in the case of rapidly varying topography. But, the expectation was frustrated. It is probably because, in the case of rapidly varying topography, the diffraction effect which is included in the eikonal equation does not work well and thus the solution is deteriorated.

From the weakly nonlinear mild-slope wave equations introduced by Nadaoka et al.(1994, 1997), a set of weakly nonlinear wave equations for rapidly varying topography are derived by including the bottom curvature and slope-squared tenns ignored in the original equations ofNadaoka et al. To solve the linear version of extended wave equations derived in this study one-dimensional finite difference numerical model is con¬structed. The perfonnance of the model is tested for the case of wave reflection from a plane slope with various inclination. The numerical results are compared with the results calculated using other numerical models reported earlier. The comparison shows that the accuracy of the numerical model is improved significantly in comparison with that of the original equations ofNadaoka et al. by including a complete set of bottom curva1w'e and slope¬squared terms for a rapidly varying topography.

A Galerkin's finite element model incorporating infinite elements for modeling of radiation condition at infinity has been developed, which is based on an extended mild-slope equation. To illustrate the validity and applicability of the present model, the example analyses were carried out for a resonance problem in the rectangular harbor of Ippen and Goda (1963) and for wave transformations over circular shoals of Sharp (1968) and Chandrasekera and Cheung (1997). Comparisons with the results obtained by hydraulic experiments and hybrid element method showed that the present model gives very good results in spite of the rapidly varying topography. Numerical experiments were also performed for wave transformations over a circular concave well which may be an alternative to conventional wave barriers.

In this study, we develop a finite element model to directly solve the Laplace equation while keeping the same computational efficiency as the models based on the extended mild-slope equation which has been widely used for calculation of wave transformation in shallow water. For this, the computational domain is discretized into finite elements with a single layer in the vertical direction. The velocity potential in the element is then expressed in terms of the potentials at the nodes located at water surface, and the Galerkin method is used to construct the numerical model. A common shape function is adopted in horizontal direction, and the cosine hyperbolic function in vertical direction, which describes the vertical behavior of progressive waves. The model was developed for vertical two-dimensional problems. In order to verify the developed model, it is applied to vertical two-dimensional problems of wave reflection and transmission. It is shown that the present finite element model is comparable to the models based on extended mild-slope equations in both computational efficiency and accuracy.

In this study, wave damping due to a permeable bed of finite depth was modelled using a complementary mild-slope equation for stream function. The energy dissipating term in the mild-slope equation was presented in terms of stream function. In order to prevent re-reflection of reflected waves along the outer boundary, a delta-function-shaped source function was derived to generate a wave in a computational domain. Numerical experiments were conducted to measure the reflection coefficient of waves over a planar slope for various incident wave periods. The numerical result of the proposed model was compared with that of an integral equation method, showing good agreement in general. However, the proposed model showed relatively higher transmission rate for the larger permeability and the longer wavelength.

본 연구에서는 기존의 ㅡ자형, ㄴ자형, ㄷ자형 조파시스템이 경사진 방향으로 가동될 때 발생되는 에너지의 불연속성으로 인한 회절철상이나 구조물에서 반사된 파가 조파판에서 발생하는 재 반사 철상의 단점을 보완할 수 있도록 곡선형태의 조파판을 배치하여 수치실험을 행하였다. 조파판을 곡선형으로 배치시켜 실험 대상물에서부터 반사된 파가 가능한 조파판에 직각으로 부딪치도록 유도하였다. 편미분 격자생성기법을 도입하여 구성된 곡선형 격자망에서 Copeland(1985)의 완경사 방정식을 이용하여 수치해석 하였다. 우선, 1차원 실험영역에서 파를 생성하여 대상구조물에서 반사되어 돌아온 반사파 성분을 조파판에서 흡수하면서 입사파를 생성하는 현상을 재현하였다. 그 후, 실험영역을 2차원으로 확장시켜 조파판을 곡선형으로 배치하여 수치 실험하여 진행파와 회절파의 중첩으로 고안된 해석해와 수치 해를 비교하려다. 그 결과, 기존의 조파시스템에 비하여 에너지 불연속선에서의 회절 현상도 발생하지 않고 반사파 성분을 효율적으로 흡수하는데 효과적임을 알아냈다.
