Abstract

This study determines the stream mean slope, stream slope and longitudinal stream profile based on the concept of informational entropy. Maximizing the entropy will make the probability distribution of longitudinal stream profile as uniform as possible while satisfying the constraints. Using this relationships the mean stream slope, stream slope and longitudinal stream profile formulas were derived. The parameters of the applied streams were estimated by the least square method using the geomorphological factors of Dalchon stream basin obtained from Chungcheong Buk-Do local stream consolidation scheme drawings. The comparative investigation was performed between the observed and simulated mean stream slope and longitudinal stream profile, and are in good agreement with the measured data. It is noted that this results can be used in the estimation of stream mean slope and longitudinal stream profile.

본 연구는 하천종단면에 정보엔트로피이론을 적용하여 평균하천경사, 하천경사 및 하천종단고도 결정방법을 제시하였다. 최대화된 엔트로피는 제약조건하에서 일정한 하천종단면의 확률분포를 만들며, 이와 같은 관계를 이용하여 평균하천경사, 하천경사 및 하천종단고도 산정식을 유도하였다. 충북 지방하천 정비기본계획에서 얻은 달천유역의 실측된 지형학적 인자를 사용하여 매개변수를 최소자승법으로 결정하였다. 유도된 평균하천경사와 하천종단고도식을 실제유역에 적용하였으며, 실측치와 잘 일치함을 나타낸다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 평균하천경사와 하천종단고도의 결정에 직접 적용할수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
