POM(Princeton Ocean Model) was utilized in this study because it took ${\sigma}-coordinate$ system which could predict the behavior of bottom water. The model has been increasingly applied to costal area although it was initially developed as the ocean flow model. The original POM did not correct computational errors in transformation of ${\sigma}-coordinate$ system. The trying to reduce conversional errors might improve accuracy of flow velocity in vicinities of bottom layer. Therefore, in this study it was proposed to modify the original POM by using error correction method suggested by $Sl{\Phi}rdal$(1997). The modified POM was applied to Young-rang Lake, one of the typical brackish lakes in Korea. It was found that the behavior of bottom water could be well predicted. Thus, it seems that the modified POM can be used as a useful tool to clarify the mechanism of formation and behavior of bottom water including oxygen-deficient water mass.

This paper presents the development of dynamically combined Typhoon generated surge-tide-wave numerical model which is applicable to shallow water. The newly developed model is based on both POM (Princeton Ocean Model) for the surge and tide and WAM (WAve Model) for wind-generated waves, but is modified to be applicable to shallow water. In this paper which is the first paper of the two in a sequence, we verified the accuracy and numerical stability of the hydrodynamic part of the model which is responsible for the simulation of Typhoon generated surge and tide. In order to improve the accuracy and numerical stability of the combined model, we modified algorithms responsible for turbulent modeling as well as vertical velocity computation routine of POM. Verification of the model performance had been conducted by comparing numerical simulation results with analytic solutions as well as data obtained from field measurement. The modified POM is shown to be more accurate and numerically stable compare to the existing POM.

In order to effectively and economically apply the previous POM(Princeton Ocean Model) WAD(Wetting And Drying) to the coastal area, the POM WAD was modified such as the water elevation input of tidal harmonics in the open boundaries was included and a CTS(Computing Time Saving) technique was introduced to the model. The modified model was tested to the standing waves in the rectangular bay and the hydraulic experiments for the flow and heat diffusion in the 3D basin. The numerical results showed a good agreement with the analytical solutions of the standing waves and the observed values by the hydraulic experiments, respectively. And also when the modified model with the CTS technique was applied to Gwangyang Bay of Korea, the computing time was decreased by as much as 39.4%.

A model-to-model comparison is attempted between Princeton Ocean Model (POM) and Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) as a first step to extend our knowledge of models' performances in studying the East Sea circulation. The two models have fundamentally different numerical schemes and boundary conditions imposed on these models are not exactly the same each other. This study indicates that MICOM has a critical weak point in that it does not reproduce the shallow surface currents properly while it handles the thermohaline processes and associated movements of intermediate and deep waters efficiently. It is suggested that the mixed layer scheme needs to be modified so that it can match with inflow boundary conditions in order to reproduce the surface currents properly in MICOM. POM reproduces the surface current pattern better than MICOM, although the surface currents in POM appear to undergo the unrealistic seasonal variation and have exaggeratedly large vertical scale. These defects seem to arise during the process of adapting POM to the East Sea, and removing these defects is left as a future task.

This paper presents the development of dynamically combined Typhoon generated surge-tide-wave numerical model which is applicable from deep to shallow water. The dynamically coupled model consists of hydrodynamic module and wind wave module. The hydrodynamic module is modified from POM and wind wave module is modified from WAM to be applicable from deep to shallow water. Hydrodynamic module computes tidal currents, sea surface elevations and storm surges and provide these information to wind wave module. Wind wave mudule computes wind waves and provides computed information such as radiation stress, sea surface roughness and shear stress due to winds. The newly developed model was applied to compute the surge, tide and wave fields by typhoon Maemi. Verification of model performance was made by comparison of measured waves and tide data with simulated results.

Princeton Ocean Model (POM) is modified to construct a three-dimensional, semi-implicit hydro¬dynamic model with a wetting-and-drying scheme. The model employs semi-implicit treatment of the barotropic pressure gradient terms and the vertical mixing terms in the momentum equations, and the velocity divergence term in the vertically-integrated continuity equation. Such treatment removes the external mode and thus the mode splitting scheme in POM, allowing the semi-implicit model to use a larger time step. Applied to hypothetical systems, both the semi-implicit model and POM give nearly the same results. The semi-implicit model, however, runs approximately 4.4 times faster than POM showing its improved computational efficiency. Applied to a hypothetical system with intertidal flats, POM employing the mode splitting scheme produces noises at the intertidal flats, that propagate into the main channel resulting in unstable current velocities. Despite its larger time step, the semi-implicit model gives stable current velocities both at the intertidal flats and main channel. The semi-implicit model when applied to Kyeonggi Bay gives a good reproduction of the observed tides and tidal currents throughout the modeling domain, demonstrating its prototype applicability.

A horizontal tow-dimensional version of POM (Princeton Ocean Model) was modified in representing the bottom friction and the open boundary conditions. To simulate the flooding and drying of intertidal flats, a wetting-and-drying scheme was incorporated into the model. The model then was applied to the Chunsu Bay and its adjacent coastal water. Only the water movement due to tides, the dominant forcing in the study area, was considered. This presents the procedure and the results of model calibration and verification for the Chunsu Bay system. The model was calibrated, using the average tidal characteristics in Tide Tables, for the amplitudes and the phases of tidal waves throughout the modeling domain. Calibration results showed that the model gave a good reproduction of tidal waves. The calibrated model was verified using the time-series measurements of surface elevation and current velocity in the summer of 1995. The model reproduced the tides currents very well. calibration and verification results demonstrated that the model is capable of reproducing the tidal dynamics in the Chunsu Bay system.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the flow-induced vibration of a flexible hydrofoil in cavitating flows via combined experimental and numerical studies. The experiments are presented for the modified NACA66 hydrofoil made of POM Polyacetate in the closed-loop cavitation tunnel and the numerical investigations are performed using a hybrid coupled fluid structure interaction model. The results showed that with the decreasing of cavitation number, the vibration magnitude increases dramatically for the cloud cavitation and declines for the supercavitation. The cloud cavitation development strongly affects the vibration response, with the main frequency of the vibration being accordance with the cavity shedding frequency and other two frequencies corresponding to the bending and twisting frequencies.

The interactions between four Keggin-type POMs (${SiW_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;{PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-},\;{SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;and\;{PMo_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$) and glassy carbon (GC) and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces are investigated in a systematic way. Electrochemical results show that molibdate series POMs adsorb relatively stronger than tungstate POMs on GC and HOPG surfaces. Adsorption of POMs on HOPG electrode surfaces is relatively stronger than on GC surfaces. ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species exhibits unique adsorption behaviors on HOPG surfaces. Surface-confined ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species on HOPG surfaces exhibit unique adsorption behaviors and inhibit the electron transfer from the solution phase species. The catalytic activity of the surface-confined POMs for hydrogen peroxide electroreduction is also examined, where ${PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$ species adsorbed on GC surfaces exhibits the highest catalytic efficiency among the investigated POM modified electrode systems.
