The purpose of this study is to analyze ventilation design factor for network-type double-deck road tunnel that have been developed actively around the world. A numerical analysis was carried out through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to derive shock loss coefficient that occurs due to the change in cross sectional area at both merging section and diverging section. The model used for the numerical analysis is real-scale model and the reliability of the result is secured by comparing with the coefficient of the previous studies. As a result of this study, shock loss coefficient was calculated depending on the change in cross-sectional area ratio and was higher than the result of previous studies in case of both merging section and diverging section. It is considered that the characteristics of the geometrical structure of network-type double-deck road tunnel have a great impact on shock loss coefficient. Therefore, the result of this study is expected to be helpful for more accurate ventilation design of network-type double-deck road tunnel.

최근 우리나라는 선진 외국과 같이 하천자연환경 보전에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 하천은 단순한 치수 및 이수 뿐만 아니라 다양한 자연 그대로의 환경적 잠재기능을 복원하는 방향으로 전환되고 있다. 하천복원은 하도내 식생, 여울과 소, 기타 국부적인 자연 서식처를 제공하기 때문에 하천단면 축소, 하천식생에 의한 흐름과 조도 변화 및 하상의 변동으로 인하여 홍수해가 발생할 것이라는 역기능도 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서는 수위-유량자료가 부족한 하천 유역을 대상으로 생태공학적 접근을 고려한 식생 설치를 상정하여 하천의 식생복원에 따른 홍수위 안정성 검토를 실시하였다. 이를 위해, HEC-RAS를 이용하여 수리학적 요소들을 산출하고, 도출된 값들을 연직 2차원 수리해석에 입력하는 방법을 사용하여 대상구간의 식생 전 후 홍수위를 산정하였다. 그 결과, 식생전 후의 수위차는 $0.00^{\sim}1.25m$로 계산되어 식생으로 인해 최고 1.25m의 수위 상승 효과가 발생하였다. 가용할 자료가 부족한 하천의 식생복원에 따른 수리안정성 검토시 위 두 방법을 연계 이용한다면 하천복원 전후의 수리특성 변화를 정확히 파악할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Because of relatively heavy dead weight of concrete itself and unavoidable heat of massive concrete in bridge piers, circular hollow columns are widely used in Korean highway bridges. Since the occurrence of 1995 Kobe earthquake, there have been much concerns about seismic design for various infrastructures, inclusive of bridge structures. It is, however, understood that there are not much research works for nonlinear behavior of circular hollow columns subjected to eqrthquake motions. The objective of this experimental research is to investigate nonlinear behavior of circular hollow reinforced concrete bridge piers under the quasi-static cyclic load, and then to enhance their ductility by strengthening the plastic hinge region with glassfiber sheets. Particularly for this test, constant 10 cyclic loads have been repeatedly actuated to investigate the magnitude of strength degradation for the displacement ductility factor. Important test parameters are seismic design, confinement steel ratio, axial force and load pattern. It is observed from quasi-static tests for 7 bridge piers that the seismically designed columns and the retrofitted columns show better performance than the nonseismically designed colums, i.e. about 20% higher for energy dissipation capacity and about 70% higher for curvatures.

홍수시 교각이나 교량 상판에 집적되는 유송잡물은 하천통수단면을 급격히 축소시켜 수위 상승을 일으키고 교량에 가해지는 유수압을 가중시켜 교량 파괴를 발생시킨다. 이러한 흐름의 변화는 교각 기초부의 세굴 깊이와 면적을 증가시키고 교각 및 교량 상판에 대한 유수압을 증가시켜 교량 자체의 안전성을 위협할 뿐 아니라 수위 상승으로 인한 범람 및 인근 구조물 파손 위험도 초래한다. 이에 대한 대책 마련을 위해서는 교량에 유송잡물이 집적된 경우 변화하는 흐름 특성을 파악하고 그에 대한 이해가 먼저 이루어져야 한다. 기존 연구는 교량에 유송잡물이 집적된 경우 발생하는 교각 기초부의 세굴 양상의 변화에만 초점을 두거나, 교량 인근의 국부적 범위에 대한 흐름 특성 변화에만 집중하여 조사한 경우가 대부분이다. 그러나 하천 내 횡단 구조물 특성 변화로 인한 흐름의 변화는 해당 구조물이 위치한 지점뿐 아니라 상하류의 상당한 범위에 걸쳐 지속적으로 해당 구조물 및 주변 시설에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 실험용 개수로에 교량 모형을 설치하여 수리모형실험을 수행하였고 유송잡물로 인한 교량 폐색이 발생한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우의 두 가지 조건을 고려하였다. 관찰 구간은 유송잡물이 집적된 교량의 상하류에 발생하는 흐름 변화를 상류는 교량 상판 길이의 약 3.33배 떨어진 위치까지 관찰하였으며 하류로는 교량 상판 길이의 10배 떨어진 위치까지 아우르는 구간에 대하여 관찰하였다. 두 가지 경우의 교량 모형에 동일한 흐름 조건을 적용하여 3차원 초음파 유속계를 이용하여 순간유속을 측정하였고, 시간평균유속, 레이놀즈 응력 및 난류 운동 에너지를 계산하여 평균 흐름 및 난류 특성의 변화를 비교 분석 하였다. 수리모형실험을 통해 유송잡물 집적으로 인한 교각 전면부와 후면부에서 하강류의 크기가 약 2배 정도 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

Most of the rivers which exist in nature are not a single river but the network that is composed of several branches and mainstreams. The river network are more complicated than other sigle rivers and streams. Therefore the hydraulic characteristics are sensitively changed by reduction and expansion of the width in the confluence or the variation of the flux. In this paper, the hydraulic characteristics were calculated by the change of the width and length in the confluence and the hydraulic model test. The deposit of confluence emerged at the left bank, right bank and the stagnation sector. As the total flow in the branch have increased, stagnation of the left bank and right bank have decreased. When the width of the downstream have been get smaller from 3 m to 2 m, the deposit of the left bank and right bank and stagnation sector have decreased. But as the eddy flow in the center of the confluence is occurred, the erosion has been increased. The result of this paper can be used as a basic data of water management around the junction and for maintenance on the ground of development of the river.

Three small scale hollow circular reinforced concrete columns with aspect ratio 4.5 were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. Diameter of section is 400 mm, hollow diameter is 200 mm. The selected test variable is transverse steel ratio. Volumetric ratios of spirals of all the columns are 0.302~0.604% in the plastic hinge region. It corresponds to 45.9~91.8% of the minimum requirement of confining steel by Korean Bridge Design Specifications, which represent existing columns not designed by the current seismic design specifications or designed by seismic concept. The longitudinal steel ratio is 2.017%. The axial load ratio is 7%. This paper describes mainly crack behavior, load-displacement hysteresis loop, seismic performance such as equivalent damping ratio, residual displacement and effective stiffness and flexural over-strength of circular reinforced concrete bridge columns with respect to test variable. The regulation of flexural over-strength is adopted by Korea Bridge Design Specifications (Limited state design, 2012). The test results are compared with nominal strength, result of nonlinear moment-curvature analysis and the design specifications such as AASHTO LRFD and Korea Bridge Design Specifications(Limited state design).

The objective of this study is to analyze the heat transfer loss of covering materials in a single-span plastic greenhouse under the steady-state wind environment. To achieve this objective, the following were conducted: (1) design of a small-scaled wind tunnel (SCWT) to analyze heat losses of the greenhouse and its performance; (2) determination of the overall heat transfer coefficient (OHTC) for the covering materials using a small-scaled greenhouse model. The SCWT consists of the blowing, dispersion, steady flow, reduction and testing areas. Each part of the SCWT was customized and designed to maintain air flow at steady state and to minimize the variances in the SCWT test. In this study, the OHTCs of the covering materials were calculated by separating each with the roof, side wall, front and back of the small-scaled greenhouse model. The results of this study show that the OHTC of the roof increases as wind speed increases but the zones in which the increase rate of the OHTC decreased, were distinguished by wind tunnel wing speed of 2 ms^-1. For the side wall, the increase rate of the OHTC was particularly higher in the 0-1 ms^-1 zone.

In this study, we analyzed the flow characteristics in the wide-crested side weir of trapezoidal section by using a three dimensional numerical stimulation. From this study, as the Froude number increases in the main channel, the overflow discharge ratio and the discharge coefficient of lateral overflow tend to decrease. And it was also found that the increase of the lateral overflow reduces the channel discharge area in the downstream, and the size of recirculating zone is increasing in the opposite side of side weir. The stream-wise water surface on the side where the side weir is installed falls down rapidly in the weir starting point, gradually ascending, and rapidly rising at the end point. The reason why the water surface rapidly rises at the weir end point is because the weir end point hinders the flow.

Eight RC bridge plers have been made on a 1/3.4 scale model and have been tested in a quasi-static cyclic load so as to investigate their seismic performance. The ultimate objective of this experimental study is to investigate the hysteretic behavior of reinforced concrete plers, which have been widely used for urban transportation facilities in Korea. Improtant test parameters are hoop ratio, axial load, load pattern, and etc. And noninear behaviors of test columns have been evaluated through their yield and ultimate strength, energy dissipation, ductility and load-deflection characteristics under quasi-static cyclic loads. From the quasi-static tests on 8 bridge piers, it is concluded that energy dissipation, ultimate strength and curvature for a given displacement factor ${\mu}={\Delta}/{\Delta}_y$ are higher for the seismically designed columns than for the nonseismically designed columns.

Each river in each country has peculiar channel characteristics at every section. Korea consists of mountains at the rate of 70%. Due to this, the sections that display unique channel form are scattered. One of the typical features is the narrow pass of channel section that presents in the process of the generation of alluvial channel and deformation channel. Around as this narrow pass of channel, it often comes to be regular flood disaster section. Regardless of this situation, investigations and plans that reflect channel characteristics at the narrow pass of channel have been wholly wanting until now. In accordance with this, we have investigated and analysed hydraulic significance and channel form of the narrow pass of channel in Seonsan in this study. The study has found real minute classification of sediment phenomenon at river bed of low flow channel on investigation section which is sand-bed river, but it was vaguely difficult to conclude that classification of sediment arises from explicit natural force. We were able to assume that the phenomenon comes from gentle bed slope, supply of river bed materials which is nearly uniformity. However, classification of sediment would come from collecting an aggregate rather than natural force. And we found that compound cross section conversion has been developing dramatically with channel form of movable bed section referring to movement which was active before at drainage district of the narrow pass of channel. With this, we could find the phenomenon that river width of low flow channel diminished largely. This kind of situation implies that it may cause compound section weighting, flood dimension decreasing, revetment at low flow channel or the local scour at bottom of levee when extraordinary flood occurs.
