Tidal amplification by construction of the sea-dike and sea-walls had been detected not only near Mokpo Harbor but also at Chungkye Bay which is connected with Mokpo Harbor by a narrow channel. This brings about increase of tidal flat area and in particular increase of surge-wave combined runup during storms. The purpose of this study is to examine an efficient operational model that can be used by civil defense agencies for real-time prediction and fast warnings on wind waves and storm surges. Instead of using commercialized wave models such as WAM, SWAN, the wind waves are simulated by using a new concept of wavelength modulation to enhance broader application of the hyperbolic wave model of the mild-slope equation type. Furthermore, The predicting system is composed of easy and economical tools for inputting depth data of complex bathymetry and enormous tidal flats such as Mokpo coastal zone. The method is applied to Chungkye Bay, and possible inundation features at Mokpo Harbor are analyzed.

In a linear dispersive system, the combined effect of water wave frnnsformations such as refraction, diffraction, shoaling, and reflection can be predicted by the mild-slope equation which was developed by Berkhoff (1972) using the Galerkin-eigenfunction method. In the derivation of the equation, he assumed a mild slope of the bottom $\nabla$h/kh << 1 (where $\nabla$ is the horizontal gradient operator, k is the wavenumber, and h is the water depth) and thus neglected second-order bottom effect terms proportional to O($\nabla$h)$^2$ and O($\nabla$$^2$h).

본 연구에서는 입사파에 의한 항내 정온도 계산 시 사용되는 수치해석 기법에 대한 검증 및 실제 항만에 대한 적용을 하였다. 해석기법은 유한요소기법 (finite element technique) 을 사용하였고 기본방정식은 경계조건과 마찰을 고려한 완경사방정식 (mild-slope equation) 을 사용하였다. 해석의 검증을 위하여 임의형상 항만에 대해 본 해석법을 적용하여 수치해석을 실시한 결과와 다른 수치해석결과 및 실험결과를 비교했을 때 좋은 일치를 나타내었다. 제주항에 대해서 2가지의 각기 다른 입사파 조건을 적용하여 계산한 결과 제주항이 방파제 설계파인 NNW방향 (Case 2)인 경우가 NE 방향 (Case 1)인 경우보다 약간 양호한 정온을 확보하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, finite element method is applied for the numerical analysis of wave height distribution. The mild-slope equation is used as the basic equation. The key of this model is to impose the effect of nonlinear waves. Numerical results are presented and agreed well with the results from experimental measurements and other numerical analysis. The present method to determine wave height distribution can be broadly utilized for the analysis of new harbor and port designs in the future.

The calmness inside a harbor plays an important role in the appropriate disposition of harbor structures. However, it is not easy to acquire accurate computational results because these are affected by many factors concerned with wave transformation. Recently, numerical model tests, which are quicker and more economical than hydraulic model experiments, were carried out for the purpose of analyzing wave height distributions in harbors. This paper presents a numerical model that is able to calculate wave heights inside a harbor. It is based on a time-dependent mild slope involving wave refraction, diffraction, shoaling effect, and reflection. In particular, arbitrary reflectivity is used at the boundary in order to simulate the real harbor reflection condition. The proposed numerical model is applied to Samcheon new-harbor in order to investigate harbor calmness.

An approach using the nonlinear wave model in predicting wave-induced currents is presented. The model results were compared with those of the conventional model using phase-averaged radiation stress, and in addition with experimental data captured by a PIV system. As a result of comparison of wave-induced currents generated behind the surface-piercing breakwater and submerged breakwater, eddy patterns appeared to be similar each other but in general numerical solutions of both models were underestimated.

An approach of decomposing the reflecting components is proposed by using the mild-slope equation of hyperbolic type which has the similar form to the shallow water equations. The approach is verified on Booij's problem and sinusoidally varying ripples. Inclusion of higher-order bottom effect given by chamberlain and Porter(1995) yields even more satisfactory results than the Berkhoff's mild-slope equation when compared with finite element solution or experiments.

A numerical model to solve mild slope equation is developed by use of a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCGM). In the present paper. accurate boundary conditions and a better preconditioner are employed which are improved from the existing method of Panchang et al. (1991). Computational procedures are focused on weakly nonlinear waves, and emerged problems to make a more accurate model are discussed. The results of model are tested against laboratory results of both circular and elliptic shoals. Model results of wave amplitude show excellent agreement with laboratory data and thes thus model can be used as a powerful tool to calculate wave transformation in shallow waters with complex bathymetry.

In order to make an accurate and fast numerical method based on Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Method(PCGM), several methods are presented including the exising method such as Bayliss or at. (1983) or Panchang et al. (1991). The results of the methods are compared with the analytical linear solution of plane waves over a constant depth. After advantages and disadvanteges of the methods are discussed. both accuracy and convergence of them are analyzed. The method developed in the paper is proved. by means of tests. to be the best method to solve the mild slope equation numerically.

A numerical shallow water wave deformation model to solve unsteady mild slope equation was develope(1. The energy equation of Izumiya and Horikawa(1984) for wave breaking and bottom friction was incorporated to estimate more realistically energy damping resulted from wave breaking and reflection. A numerical scheme for variable grid spacings was also introduced to complement the defect of unsteady mild slope equation limiting the grid spacings. This model was tested and compared with the existing analytic solutions and physical modelings, and applied to a practical situation.
