Soil erosion, transportation, and sedimentation by water flow often occur in a stream. This excessive occurrence threatens the safety of hydraulic structures, and aggravates natural disasters like flood. To prevent soil disaster according to the soil erosion, it is necessary to predict accurate sediment outflow primarily. Besides, it is very important to choose appropriate models by basin characteristics, to estimate accurate quantity of related factors, and to acquire available hydrological data. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to estimate soil erosion amount and sediment amount according to rainfall-runoff by using rainfall, discharge, and sediment in the Seolmacheon experimental catchment. And, it proposed sediment delivery ratio of the Seolmacheon catchment by result of studying sediment delivery ratio. Hereafter, this study will estimate sediment delivery ratio by basin characteristics, and formulate the method of estimating soil erosion and sediment outflow in various conditions by applying the results in other catchments.

This paper deals with the experimental study on the characteristics of current in the ocean engineering basin of KRISa, The unsteady characteristics of the flow is examined by analyzing time histories of streamwise velocity at some points. The major frequency of the fluctuating velocity was found by the spectral analysis of the measured data. The vertical and spanwise distributions of time averaged velocities were also examined. Especially, vertical distributions of the streamwise velocities with guide vanes are compared with those without guide vanes and it confirms the effeciency of the guide vane to improve the uniformity of the vertical profile of streamwise velocity. Finally, the measured data are regressed to give the relation between revolutions per minute(r.p.m.) and mean velocity.

River Management System was developed to achieve water quality analysis that reflects physical characteristics of river flow. The Gyecheon basin which is located at the upstream of Hoengseong dam was selected as an experimental watershed and hydrologic and water quality monitoring network was set up for acquisition of real time data. The observed data have been stored in the system until present. The hydraulic and water quality models were constructed for an experimental watershed, and the calibration and verification was performed using past flood events and observed water quality data. Graphic User Interface(GUI) was developed with ArcView in a study area. Developed system can be effectively used to water quality monitoring and management in Hoengseong Lake.

Settling Basins are one of the most important and popular methods for removal of suspended sediments irrigation and drainage networks or power canals taking off from an alluvial river and wastewater treatment plant. Improving the performance and so increasing sediment removal efficiency of settling basins by an alternative method is necessary. In the present work, the effect of baffle and its angle of attack with the flow (${\theta}$) on the sediment removal efficiency is investigated by conducting a series of experiments on a straight canal with 8 m length, 0.3 m width and 0.5 m height and 3 m length of basin equipped with an adjustable glass baffle. A numerical analysis has been carried out using ANSYS Fluent 3D software (a general purpose computational fluid dynamics simulation tool) for three Froude numbers from the experiments. The numerical and experimental results were found to match reasonably well.

A need fer stable and comfortable cabins in the high-speed passenger ships has increased. For active control of the motion of the ship cabin, a few control algorithms have been applied to the three dimensional real models in the vibration basin. Experimental results show that the feedforward neural network with a linear feedback controller is one of the promising control algorithms for this active control.

From having an experimental study of physical and consolidation characteristics of soft clay in Nakdong river lower basin, we come to the conclusion as follow. Clay minerals in Nakdong river lower basin are classified into Kaolinite and Illite. Water content($W_n$) is similarly distributed in a range of 50.4% to 92.8% in Noksan and 46.6% to 99.0% in Jangyu, and liquid limit(LL) of both areas appears lower than water content. In the case of compression index, the index of jangyu is a little higher than that of Noksan because Jangyu is in a range of 0.67 to 1.94 and Noksan in a range of 0.44 to 1.5. The second compression index of Jangyu in a range of 0.027 to 0.092 is also higher than Noksan in a range of 0.024 to 0.075. As a result of regression analysis, a relation between water content and compression index is linear, and between initial void ratio and compression index is shown to $C_c=0.80e_o-0.58$. The ratio of $C_{\alpha}/C_c$ in a range of 0.03 to 0.08 expresses a wide range.

In Kyeongsang basin, there were very dynamic magmatic activities, resulting to form volcanic and plutonic rocks. A plutonic recycle appeared in this region. Presumption of the pressure for hornblende-bearing granitic rock among the plutonic rocks, can support important informations for the emplacement depth of Cretaceous Bulgugsa granites in Kyeongsang basin. $Al^T$(Al total) contents of hornblende is related to the pressure, oxygen fugacity, and compositions of other minerals having the solid solution. So we apply the $Al^T$ content of hornblende to several empirical and experimental geobarometer systems to presume the pressure and to determine the emplacement depth of Cretaceous Bulgugsa granites in Kyeongsang basin from the inferred pressure. With the result that we applied the $Al^T$ contents of hornblende to the various geobarometers, there was a positive relationship between the pressure and $Al^T$. The minimum pressure value ranges from 0.73 to 1.70kbar in Kyeongju and the maximum value from 2.02 to 3.16kbar in Kimhae. And then the tectonic setting in Kyeongsang basin has no relation to the emplacement depth of Cretaceous granites and means variations with the movement of vertical component in each area. As we suppose that the density of earth's crust is $2.8g/cm^3$, the average values of the emplacement depth ranges in each area range from 2.6 to 11.4km. These data confirm the previous idea about the emplacement depth of Cretaceous granites in Kyeongsang basin, and these geobarometers using the $Al^T$ contents of hornblende is available though they have much limits. Therefore Cretaceous Bulgugsa granites in Kyeongsang basin was the shallow depth intrusive rut and the exposed granites was the shallow depth crust.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study of wave run-ups on a semi-submersible offshore structure. A series of model tests with a 1:80 scale ratio were carried out in the two-dimensional wave basin of MOERI/KIOST. The experimental model had two columns and one pontoon. The model was fixed and wave elevations were measured at five points per column. Two different draft (operational & survival) conditions and three wave heights were considered under regular wave conditions. First, the nonlinear characteristics of wave run-ups are discussed by using the time series data. Then, the wave heights are compared with numerical results based on the potential flow model. The comparison shows fairly good correlation between the experiments and computations. Finally, wave run-ups under the operational and survival conditions are suggested.

We construct the hydrology-water quality monitoring system which can watch the variations of river flow and water quality in real time. We also construct the river management system through the hydrology-water quality monitoring system that can observe water quality and its variations for preparing for the accident of river pollution. The Gyecheon basin which is located at the upstream of Heoengseong dam is selected as an experimental watershed for the system construction. The real time monitoring system for getting more correct hydrological and water quality data consists of 3-rainfall gauge station, 3-water level gauge station, and 1-water quality gauge station. We intend that the data such as rainfall, water level, velocity, flow, and water quality will be collected and we try that the data may be used for practical and other purposes.

In this study, propeller open water characteristics ($K_P$, $K_T$ and ${\eta}_o$) were compared for three different ducted propellers using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, as well as an experimental test at a basin. The best shape of the duct was selected from the three types of specially designed ducts based on the CFD analysis results. The same propeller model (Kaplan type propeller) was used inside all three duct models, and the propeller open water characteristics were compared, predominantly at the design speed for an underwater vehicle. Finally, the results of the CFD test simulations for the selected duct case were verified by experimental open water tests in a towing tank.
