In order to assess the hydraulic effects of flow pattern changes and geomorphological evolution around spur dikes, this study carried out monitoring and numerical simulation on the changes of morphologic characteristics around spur dikes that settled in the bend of the Yeongcheon River. The study site spanned 190 m, and spur dikes were installed in March 2008. Monitoring of the site started in May 2008 and was completed in April 2014. When the water level was higher than the height of the spur dikes, the spur dikes extrude flow from the bank. Therefore, the spur dikes that were built to stabilize the channel have been effectively performing hydraulic functions. With the passing of time, the channel was stabilized and pools formed around the spur dike toes by local scouring. It was confirmed that spur dikes created various physical characteristics in the aspect of channel topography, with sediments deposits occurring between the spur dikes, while riffles and pools formed in the channel.

In this study, hydraulic characteristics around bridge piers were analyzed with and without collar through a hydraulic model experiment. The analysis of stage variation in front and back side of pier showed that collar installation did not function as obstacle to the stream flow. Little variation of water level between front and back sides of pier was observed before and after collar installation(0.2cm in front side and 0.1cm in back side of pier). Also, result that analyze velocity variation in front and back side of pier, lateral velocity(u) and transverse(v) before and after collar installation exhibited no alteration in the front and back side of pier. About 16.72% and 15.83% of vertical velocities(w) were reduced for the condition of y/d=0.33 in the front side of pier and y/d=0.67 in the back side of pier, respectively. This experimental results suggest that the collar installation around pier can minimize the local scouring depth by preventing the downflow that cause the pier scour.

강이나 하천에 이수 및 치수의 목적으로 소규모 댐이나 보 등의 수리구조물을 설치한다. 수리구조물의 상하류부에는 하천 하상의 극심한 침식인 국부세굴현상을 방지하여 수리구조물의 안정성을 확보하기 위해 하상보호구조물을 설치하는데, 특히 하류부에 설치하는 하상보호구조물에는 크게, 다양한 형식과 크기의 물받이공, 에너지 감세공, 그리고 끝턱구조물 등이 이에 속한다. 지금까지 국내 외 수리구조물 설계지침에서는 하상보호공의 적절한 길이규모를 산정하기 위한 다양한 공식이 개발 및 적용되었지만, 최근 들어 다양한 목적을 위해 복잡해진 수리구조물의 형식과 다양한 운영방식에 따른 수리학적 분석내용이 적절하게 반영되지 않은 경험공식이 대부분 적용되었다. 따라서 예상보다 매우 큰 하상유실이 발생 하여, 하상보호구조물의 설치역할을 제대로 수행하지 못하고 오히려 수리구조물의 안정성에 위협을 주는 주요한 요인이 되었다. 그리고 최근 국내에는 4 대강 유역에 16개 중 대규모의 다목적 보가 설치되었으나 앞서 언급한 바와 같이 미흡한 설계지침을 기반으로 설치된 보 및 하상보호구조물의 기능이 저하되어 극심한 세굴현상이 발생하였다. 또한 이를 보강하기 위한 추가적인 공사 등으로 경제적인 손실을 야기하였다. 반면 외국의 최근 설계지침에는 하상보호구조물 하류부에서 발생하는 평형최대세굴심의 규모를 고려하거나 흐름 및 난류분포를 고려한 수리학적 분석이 반영되어 있지만 국내 설계지침에는 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 국내 설계지침의 한계를 조사하고 현재 외국에서 적절하게 제안되어 적용 중인 하상보호구조물 설계지침을 검토하였다. 특히 수리학적 거동특성과 유사분포 특성이 고려된 최대세굴심 산정공식과 설계지침을 검토하였고, 평형상태에 도달한 세굴공 내에서의 수리학적 특성을 고려하여 하상보호구조물의 길이를 적절히 산정할 수 있는 기존 연구결과를 토대로, 하상보호구조물 길이 산정공식을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 검토된 외국 설계지침과 함께 수리학적 거동특성이 고려된 하상보호구조물의 길이 산정공식은, 향후 수리구조물의 안정성 확보를 위한 하상보호구조물의 설계에 반영될 필요가 있으며, 이를 통해 수리구조물의 효율적이고 경제적인 유지관리를 위해 적절히 활용될 수 있다.

In planning the disaster prevention by the erosion control facilities, it is essential to focus on the microtopography of the channel bed and the chronological process of sedimental movement in the torrential streams. For this purpose, the microtopographical change of the channel bed and the effects of the erosion control facilities in the mountain torrents were analyzed by the experimental channel and the field survey of the torrents where low-dam series had been constructed in the channel. The results of this experiment showed that the effects of construction of the low-dam series on the channel bed fixiation were the prevention of the local scouring in the experimental channel and the expansion of flow channel width and deposit space. The results are summarized as follows : 1. When the low-dam series were constructed over the whole channel bed (L'/L=1), the conning water and the sediment were seperated, simultaneously resulting in deposition of sediment and reduction of the tractive force for the running water. Therefore, the F.A. (Fluctuation area in cross-section: value was decreased to about 65% compared with that of non-work (L'/L=0). 2. The efficiencies of the low-dam series on the channel width were increased with an increment in length of working space. After the construction of low-dam series on the whole channel bed (L'/L=1), flow channel width was increased to about 1.53 times compared with that of non-work (L'/L=0). 3. It needs a deposition area to store the sediment with decrease in tractive force. The low-dam series in the experimental channel widened the deposition area about 2.10 times compared with that of non-work.

In this study, the characteristics of flow and bed changes with variation of space and length of serial spur dikes were investigated with 2 dimensional numerical simulation. Upstream spur dike was affected by flow and made a role as a single spur dike. As time increased, local scouring was developed around outside of spur dike, and migrated upstream. The aggradation of the bed at the back of spur-dike was made at the initial stage of experiment and numerical modelling. However, the aggradation of the bed was increased in the downstream area. The scour whole around a spur dike upstream was not deep as the Dimensionless spur-dike interval (b) of the dike increased. The depth of scour hole was nearly constant at the dynamic equilibrium state. The dimensionless scour depth ($y_s/H$) increased with L/b. The spur dike downstream had the characteristics of single spur dike as the L/b was larger than 10. However, the spur dike downstream was affected by the dike upstream as the L/b was less than 4, and the bed of the upstream in the spur dike was aggradated and the effects of the serial spur dikes on the bed decreased.

The basic analysis of Soil and structural mechanics for the bridge substructure affected by the flow of water is sufficient in the construction of such bridges, but the stability of scour resulting from hydraulic phenomena is insufficient. In addition, it is not enough to estimate the scour depth of the bridge which reflects the watershed characteristics of the domestic river because it uses the formula for calculating the scour depth of the overseas piers in calculating the scour depth of the bridge. In this study, the application of the CSU (1993) formula, which is currently applied to the national river design criteria, was reviewed between the two formulas after calculating the scour after calculating the scour by applying another bridge deck scour calculation formula to take into account the uncertainty in the calculation of scour. In this study, in addition to the CSU (1993) formula, which is currently applied to Korean river design criteria, another scour depth calculation formula is applied to calculate uncertainty in scour depth calculation, was reviewed between the two formulas. The review confirmed that the SSE (%) showed a difference of at least 2.08%, up to 91.23%, and SSEn(%) at least 0.19%, up to 415.91%, when compared to the measured depth of the pier based on the hydraulic model experiment and the depth of the pier calculated with the nine scour depth formulas in use. In other words, it is confirmed that there are many differences between the scouring formulas of piers. The results of this study are expected to be used to estimate scour depth in future river design.

The Inner Port Phase 2 area of the Pyeongtaek-Dangjin Port is enclosed by a total of three permeable sea-walls, and the disposal site to the east of the Inner Port Phase 2 is also enclosed by two permeable sea-walls. The maximum tidal range measured in the Inner Port Phase 2 and in the disposal site in May 2010 is 4.70 and 2.32 m, respectively. It reaches up to 54 and 27%, respectively of 8.74 m measured simultaneously in the exterior. Regression formulas between the difference of hydraulic head and the rate of interior water volume change, are induced. A three-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic model for the Asan Bay is constructed incorporating a module to compute water discharge through the permeable sea-walls at each computation time step by employing the formulas. Hydrodynamics for the period from 13th to 27th May, 2010 is simulated by driving forces of real-time reconstructed tide with major five constituents($M_2$, $S_2$, $K_1$, $O_1$ and $N_2$) and freshwater discharges from Asan, Sapkyo, Namyang and Seokmoon Sea dikes. The skill scores of modeled mean high waters, mean sea levels and mean low waters are excellent to be 96 to 100% in the interior of permeable sea-walls. Compared with the results of simulation to obstruct the flow through the permeable sea-walls, the maximum current speed increases by 0.05 to 0.10 m/s along the main channel and by 0.1 to 0.2 m/s locally in the exterior of the Outer Sea-wall of Inner Port. The maximum bottom shear stress is also intensified by 0.1 to 0.4 $N/m^2$ in the main channel and by more than 0.4 $N/m^2$ locally around the arched Outer Sea-wall. The module developed to compute the flow through impermeable seawalls can be practically applied to simulate and predict the advection and dispersion of materials, the erosion or deposion of sediments, and the local scouring around coastal structures where large-scale permeable sea-walls are maintained.

Groyne to control the direction and velocity of flow in rivers is generally installed for the purpose of protecting riverbanks or embankments from erosion caused by running water. In particular, as interest in river restoration and natural river improvement increases, groynes are proposed as a key hydraulic structure for local flow control and riparian habitat establishment. Groynes are installed mainly in groups rather than as individual structures. In case of groynes installed as a group, flow around the groynes change according to spacing in between the groynes. Therefore, groyne spacing is regarded as the most important factor in groyne design. This study aimed at examining changes of flows around and within the area of groynes that take place according to the spacing of groynes installed in order to propose the optimal spacing for upward groynes. To examine flow characteristics around groynes, this study looked at flows in main flow area and recirculation flow area separately. In main flow area, it examined the impact of flow velocity increasing as a result of conveyance reduction that is exerted on river bed stability in relation to changes in the maximum flow velocity according to installation spacing. As a factor causing impacts on scouring and sedimentation within the area of groynes, recirculation flow in the groyne area can lead problems concerning flow within the area and stability of embankment. As for recirculation area, an analysis was conducted on the scale of rotational flow and the flow around embankment that exerts impacts on stability of the embankment. In addition, a comparative analysis was carried with reference to changes of the central point of rotational flow that occur within the area of groynes. As a result of compositely examining the results, the appropriate installation spacing is proposed as min. four times-max. six times considering a decrease in flow velocity according to the installation of upward groynes, river bed stability and stability of embankments against counterflow within the area of groynes.
