Abstract

The experiment of rip current at successive ends of breaking wave crests was conducted in a laboratory wave basin, and its time-varying evolution according to incident wave durations was observed by using ortho-rectified images. The experiment utilized the generation of a quasi nodal line of the honeycomb-pattern waves (i.e., intersecting wave trains) formed by out-of-phase motion of two piston-type wave makers arranged in the transverse direction, instead of the original honeycomb pattern waves which are generated when two wave trains propagate with slightly different wave directions. The particle moving distance and velocity caused by the rip current were measured by using the particle tracking technique. As a result, the rip current was survived for a while even without incident waves after its generation due to several successive ends of wave crests, and it moved the particles further out to sea.

연속된 쇄파 파봉선 끝단사이로 발달하는 이안류를 수리실험을 통해 재현하고 입사파 지속시간의 변화에 따른 이안류 발달 특성을 정사보정 영상을 통해 관찰하였다. 서로 다른 두 협각의 파랑 중첩에 의해 생성되는 벌집구조 파를 재현하는 대신에 조파장치를 횡방향 두 그룹으로 나누어 역 위상으로 구동시켜 규칙파를 조파하므로 유사 벌집구조 파형을 생성하여 실험을 수행하였다. 수리 실험에서 재현된 이안류의 생성과 발달 과정을 관찰하기 위해 정사보정 영상기반 입자 추적 기법을 사용하였으며, 이를 통해 이동거리와 속도를 관측하였다. 연속된 쇄파선 끝단이 해안으로 입사하여 이안류가 생성되지만, 이안류가 생성된 후 파랑이 더 이상 입사되지 않아도 상당시간 동안 이안류가 발달하여 입자들이 외해로 이동하는 것을 확인하였다.
