Abstract

The adjustment processes and responses of a series of mining pits by sand or gravel mining were investigated by laboratory experiments. The filling processes of the two pits were affected by the bars developed in the upstream of the channel. However, the bars were not developed and the bed was degradated in the downstream of the pits due to little sediment flow, which was trapped in the pits. The submerged angle of repose in the pits was nearly constant when the pits were being filled. After the filling processes of the pits were finished, the pit was speedily filled with sediment, and the bed was aggradated and migrated with speed. However, the angle of repose decreased. As the distance between the upstream pit and the downstream pit increased, the bed of the pit downstream was tailcutted and degradated. The migration speed of the pit decreased. However, the dimensionless pit depth increased as the distance between the pits increased. The dimensionless pit depth increased with time.

본 연구는 하천준설 및 골재채취로 인하여 2개의 웅덩이가 직렬로 발생하였을 때, 이동상 실내실험을 수행하여 웅덩이의 적응과정과 응답특성을 분석하였다. 웅덩이의 되메우기 과정은 웅덩이 상류에서 발달한 사주의 영향을 받지만, 웅덩이 하류에서는 웅덩이에서 유사가 포착되어 사주가 발달되지 않았으며, 하상이 지속적으로 저하되었다. 웅덩이의 되메우기가 진행될 때, 웅덩이의 이동속도는 거의 일정하며, 웅덩이의 수중 안식각은 일정하게 유지되었다. 그러나 웅덩이의 되메우기가 거의 완료되면서, 웅덩이의 이동속도는 증가하고, 웅덩이에서 수중 안식각은 작아졌다. 웅덩이와 웅덩이의 이격거리가 증가하면, 2차 웅덩이 하류에서 미부침식이 크게 발생하였다. 또한 웅덩이의 이격거리가 증가할수록 웅덩이의 이동속도는 감소하였다. 이것은 웅덩이가 되메워지는 데 시간이 증가하고, 웅덩이 하류하천에 미치는 영향이 크다는 것을 의미한다. 시간이 증가함에 따라, 무차원 웅덩이의 깊이는 지속적으로 감소하지만, 웅덩이의 이격 거리가 증가할수록, 무차원 웅덩이 깊이는 증가하였다. 그러나 무차원 웅덩이의 길이는 시간이 증가함에 따라서 전체적으로 감소하지만, 웅덩이와 웅덩이의 이격 거리가 증가할수록, 무차원 웅덩이의 길이가 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다.
