An algorithm to allow shoreline movement during numerical experiment on sediment transport, deposition or resuspension for general coastal morphology is proposed here. The bed slope near shoreline, i.e. mean sea level, is influenced by bed material, tidal current, waves, and wave-induced current, but has been reported to remain within a stable range. Its annual variation is not large, either. The algorithm is adjusting the bathymetry, if the largest bed slope within shoreline band exceeds a given bed slope due to continuous erosion at zones below the shoreline. This algorithm automatically describes retreat of shoreline caused by erosion, when used within a numerical system. The algorithm was tested to a situation which includes a continuous dredging at a point, and showed satisfactory development of concentric circle contours. Next, the algorithm was tested to another situation which includes sinking of eroded part of bed plate, and produced satisfactory results, too. Finally, the algorithm was tested to a movable-bed laboratory experimental conditions. The shoreline movement behind detached breakwater was reasonably reproduced with this algorithm.

In this study, hydraulic characteristics for upstream migration of fish in a pool-and-weir fishway were analyzed through experiment. The results showed that streaming flow was preferable to plunging flow for upstream migration of fish and it was not good to make an orifice beneath the septum since it generates turbulent jet and eddies. Protrusions on the side wall of fishway were preferable to grooves since they decelerate flow velocity and make upstream migration easy. A vertically movable septum was necessary for a flushing of deposited bed material, and net installing over fishway was also needed for birds not to approach the fishway and eat fish.

최근 우리나라에서 하천 및 유역 환경의 급격한 변화로 인하여 하천 형태가 많이 변하고 있는 추세이다. 특히 사행하는 모래 하천에서 만곡부 사주의 형태 변화가 커지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 이와 같은 모래 하천의 만곡부에서 사주의 변화 특성을 평가하고 그 원인을 파악하기 위하여 이동상 수리모형 실험을 실시하였다. 실험에서 하천 및 유역의 여러 상황 변화를 감안하여 유량, 유사 공급량, 공급 시간, 하천 변형 등 다양한 조건을 상정하였다. 연구 대상하천은 낙동강 본류이며, 중점 수리모형 실험대상 구간은 우리나라의 전통민속마을인 안동 하회마을을 태극형으로 감싸면서 사행하는 만곡부이다. 이동상 실험규모는 수평축적 1/110, 수직축적 1/50로 왜곡도가 2.2로써 비교적 대규모이다. 모형 하상재료는 입경 0.29 mm의 석탄분(anthracite)을 채택하였으며, 현장에서 하상재료조사와 상사해석을 통해 결정하였다. 실험 결과, 유량과 유사 공급량 변화에 따른 사주 변화가 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 유사 공급이 이루어지지 않을 때 국지적 퇴적양상을 보였다. 이는 사주 내 식생활착으로 이어지는 계기가 될 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 설계홍수량 규모에서 구하도와 과거 사주가 재현되었는데, 이는 지역주민을 통해 입증되었다. 또한 천연기념물인 만송정 주변의 모래둔덕의 형성과정이 입증되었다.

The construction of large scale harbor structures at Maengbang beach, which is located on the eastern coast of Korea, is of great concern because it may cause disastrous beach erosion in the vicinity. Therefore, a hydraulic model experiment was conducted to examine the morphological changes after such construction. The water depth was scaled using the method of Van Rijn (2010), which is a well-known scale law, but the results appeared to be overestimated. The present study developed a new scale law that applies an equilibrium beach profile formula to scale the model evolution to the prototype scale. When compared with survey data observed at Maengbang beach, the proposed method showed better agreement than the method of Van Rijn (2010).

Because a failure to provide enough plunge pool depth can create a risk to the structural stability of the psillways or dams, many researchers have proposed experimental formulas for claculating ultimate scour depth under jet issued from spillways and pipe culverts. For the design purposes of a plunge pool, scour potential distribution is important as much as the ultimate scour depth is. In this study scour potential distributions near the jet impinging point on a porous plane which can simulate a real cohesionless movable flat bed has been measured. Experimental results showed that scour potential distributions are geometrically similar to each other provided the angle of jet impact was the same. Statistical analysis of experimental results showed that scour potential distributions for the design purposes of a plunge pool could be expressed by a single equation within a range of this experiment. The proposed formula for the prediction of scour potential distributions agrees well with experimental measurements.

Recently, a submerged breakwater has been installing to prevent the erosion of shoreline everywhere. Artificially submerged breakwater is made to minimize the loss of nourishment sand beach erosion. For this reason, it has been indiscriminately constructed submerged breakwater that is planned in the country throughout. However, maintenance purposes to keep the shoreline of the beach is a method that is quite a few problems. There are also disadvantages such as expensive construction costs, ocean space utilization, water pollution and shoreline modification. In addition, person of utilizing the space of the ocean leisure does not like that because of the disconnection of ocean space. The beaches such as Gwanganri are artificially supplying nourishment sand to maintain the beach. The flexible construction method refers to a structure that is installed as a flexible material instead of submerged breakwater to prevent the loss of nourishment sand. In order to develop a new method to mitigate shoreline erosion, this study was carried out a hydraulic model experiment by installing a cell group as an example of the flexible method. Namely, in order to prevent the loss of nourishment sand, we decided to develop a new method that can mitigate the degree of beaches erosion by using cell group instead of submerged breakwater. In the two dimensional fixed hydraulic experiment, was carried out the effect reducing of wave height and the rate of low reflection due to the installation of the cell group. In movable bed experiment, the capture rate of the nourishment sand and the erosion prevention rate of the nourishment sand was performed for stability of shoreline. Therefore, according to the results of the hydraulic tests, it was possible to maintain the stable beaches due to installing the cell group on the erosion beaches, due to the effect of reducing wave height, the low reflection, the erosion prevention rate of nourishment sand, the high capture rate of nourishment sand.
