실험(實驗)과 FEM기법(技法)을 사용(使用)하여 구(求)한 침투유량(浸透流量)의 비교(比較)

The thesis is established on the basis of model tests on the central core dam. With variations in the upstream water level, the quantity of seepage in the downstream boundaries were obtained for each specific water level. Seepage alignment and equipotential lines to these occasions were also researched and measured. By making use of the resulting data from the experiment, the flow velocities and seepage quantity computed to the flow rate of each element of flownets by the Finite Element Method was compared with the values produced by experiments and approximate theoretical formula. Further to this, transitions of water level related thereto was also examined in the thesis. During the high water level, seepages shown by the experiment were larger than that of the F.E.M. Meanwhile, the in-between differences were found to be quite small during the low water level. In the flow rate of each element with which the flow-nets are constructed, flow velocities of the X and Z axis were faster on account of the variations in water level. Flow velocities of the Y axis were extremely small enough to be disregarded.

본(本) 논문(論文)은 제체(堤體)의 중앙심벽형(中央心壁型) model을 제작(製作)해서 상류측(上流側) 각(各) 수위(水位)의 변화(變化)에 대한 침투유량(浸透流量)을 실험(實驗)을 통하여 구하고, 이 때의 침윤선형상(浸潤線形狀)과 Equipotential line에 대하여도 고찰(考察)한 것이다. 또한 실험(實驗)에서 얻은 자료(資料)를 FEM기법(技法)을 사용하여 구한 유선망(流線網)의 각요소별(各要素別) Flow-rate에 대한 유속(流速)과 침투유량(浸透流量)을 실험치(實驗値)와 근사리론공식(近似理論公式)에서 산출(算出)된 값과 비교검토(比較檢討)하였다. 침투수량(浸透水量)은 고수위시(高水位時)에서는 실험치(實驗値)보다 FEM 값이 적게 나타났으며, 저수위시(低水位時)에는 거의 비슷한 값이었다. 그리고, 유선망(流線網)이 형성(形成)된 각(各) 요소별(要素別) Flow-rate 는 X, Z 축(軸)은 수위변화(水位變化)가 있어 흐름에 따른 유속(流速)이 크나 Y 축(軸)의 유속(流速)은 무시할 수 있을 정도의 적은 값이었다.
