In this study, in order to reduce the numerical oscillation due to the unbalance between source and flux terms as the HLLC scheme is applied to the flow analysis on the irregular bed topography, a unstructured finite volume model based on the well-balanced HLLC scheme and the shallow water equations is developed and applied to problems of dam-break waves. The well-balanced HLLC scheme considers directly the gradient of bed topography as the flux terms is calculated. This scheme provides the good numerical balance between the source and flux terms in the case of the application to the steady-state transcritical flow. To verify the numerical model developed in this study, it is applied to three cases of hydraulic model experiments and a field case study of Mapasset dam failure (France). As a result of the verification, the predicted numerical results agree relatively well with available laboratory and field measurements. The model provides slightly more accurate results compared with the existing models.

The present study examines similarity of behavior between an overtopping wave generated by a plunging wave and a dam-break flow through hydraulic model tests. The dam-break flow has been employed to estimate the overtopping effect on the basis of the dam-break flow's behavior similar to the overtopping. In this study, the overtopping velocity was measured by a modified image technique using bubble and bubble texture images called bubble image velocitmetry. From the measurements, the vertical profiles of horizontal overtopping velocity at cross-sections along the deck were presented and discussed. Maximum velocity and depth-averaged velocity at each cross-section were compared with an analytical solution solving the dam-break flow, Ritter's solution. The initial water depth of importance for the solution was determined from the tested wave condition and the overtopping measurements. The comparison shows that the solution with the initial water depth estimated using the front velocity of the overtopping wave is in good agreements with the measurements.

This study simulates the dam break situation by a probable maximum precipitation of Soyang-River Dam using HEC-HMS model and HEC-RAS model and compares the simulated results. The probable maximum precipitation was calculated using the flood event of the typhoon Rusa occurred in 2002 and using the mean areal precipitation of the Gangreung region and the moisture maximization method. The estimated probable maximum precipitations were compared for the duration of 6, 12, 18, and 24 hrs and were used as input data for the HEC-HMS model. Moreover, the inflow data calculated by HEC-HMS were utilized as ones for HEC-RAS, and then unsteady flow analysis was conducted. The two models were used for the dam break analysis with the same conditions and the peak flow estimated by HEC-HMS was larger than that of the HEC-RAS model. The applicability of two models was performed from the dam break analysis then we found that we could simulate more realistic peak flow by HEC-RAS than HEC-HMS. However, when we need more fast simulation results we could use HEC-HMS. Therefore, we may need the guidelines for the different utilizations with different purposes of two models. Furthermore, since the two models still include uncertainties, it is important to establish more detailed topographical factors and data reflecting actual rivers.

Dam-break flow occurs when an elevated dam suddenly collapses, resulting in the catastrophic release of rapid and uncontrolled impounded water. This study compares laminar and turbulent closure models for simulating three-dimensional dam-break flows using OpenFOAM. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model, specifically the k-ε model, is employed to capture turbulent dissipation. Two scenarios are evaluated based on a laboratory experiment and a modified multi-layered block obstacle scenario. Both models effectively represent dam-break flows, with the turbulent closure model reducing oscillations. However, excessive dissipation in turbulent models can underestimate water surface profiles. Improving numerical schemes and grid resolution enhances flow recreation, particularly near structures and during turbulence. Model stability is more significantly influenced by numerical schemes and grid refinement than the use of turbulence closure. The k-ε model's reliance on time-averaging processes poses challenges in representing dam-break profiles with pronounced discontinuities and unsteadiness. While simulating turbulence models requires extensive computational efforts, the performance improvement compared to laminar models is marginal. To achieve better representation, more advanced turbulence models like Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) are recommended, necessitating small spatial and time scales. This research provides insights into the applicability of different modeling approaches for simulating dam-break flows, emphasizing the importance of accurate representation near structures and during turbulence.

There is a growing demand for the stability of existing dams due to abnormal climate and the aging of dams. Emergency Action Plans (EAPs) for reservoir or dam failure only consider a single rainfall event. Therefore, this study simulates dam failure caused by continuous rainfall events, and proposes the establishment of EAP by selecting the optimal shelters. We define a mega rainfall event scenario caused by continuous rainfall events with 500-year frequency in the Chungju Dam watershed and estimate the mega flood. The mega flood event scenario is divided into two cases: scenario A represents the flooding case caused by discharge release from a dam, while scenario B is the case of a dam break. As a result of flood inundation analysis, the flooded damage area by the scenario A is 50.06 km² and the area by the scenario B is 6.1 times of scenario A (307.45 km²). We select optimal shelters for each administrative region in the city of Chungju, which has the highest inundation rate in the urban area. Seven shelter evaluation indicators from domestic and foreign shelter selection criteria are chosen, and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used to evaluate the alternatives. As a result of the optimal shelter selection, the six shelters are selected and five are schools. This study considers continuous rainfall events for inundation analysis and selection of optimal shelters. Also, the results of this study could be used as a reference for establishment of the EAP.

Malpasset Dam, located in France, is of great importance in the field of civil and geotechnical engineering as it was the first arch dam that totally collapsed in 1959. A three-dimensional model of the dam was reconstructed using close-range photogrammetry technique. The orientations of foliation developed in the bedrock and the collapse surface were measured. Moreover, both model and measurement results showed high precision. The study result can be used in future studies such as collapse simulation analysis and geotechnical investigations.

The main purposes of dam safety assessment are to predict risk of an existing dam and to reduce the identified risks reasonably. This study determined the risks of an existing dam for each different dam breach scenario using risk analysis. In addition, the application of risk analysis in the dam safety assessment made possible to compare and evaluate a variety of alternatives that may reduce risk of an existing dam with respect to the possibility of dam failure and economic efficiency, On the ground of the risk analysis results, the dam safety analysts can obtain better understanding and more information regarding the risk of and existing dam and recommended alternatives. Decision-makers will be able to manage risk of an existing dam efficiently by spending their affordable money and resources on the alternatives that are expected to reduce the risk of an existing dam practically.

When Catastrophic extreme flood occurs due to dam break, the response time for flood warning is much shorter than for natural floods. Numerical models can be powerful tools to predict behaviors in flood wave propagation and to provide the information about the flooded area, wave front arrival time and water depth and so on. But flood wave propagation due to dam break can be a process of difficult mathematical characterization since the flood wave includes discontinuous flow and dry bed propagation. Nevertheless, a lot of numerical models using finite volume method have been recently developed to simulate flood inundation due to dam break. As Finite volume methods are based on the integral form of the conservation equations, finite volume model can easily capture discontinuous flows and shock wave. In this study the numerical model using Riemann approximate solvers and finite volume method applied to the conservative form for two-dimensional shallow water equation was developed. The MUSCL scheme with surface gradient method for reconstruction of conservation variables in continuity and momentum equations is used in the predictor-corrector procedure and the scheme is second order accurate both in space and time. The developed finite volume model is applied to 2D partial dam break flows and dam break flows with triangular bump and validated by comparing numerical solution with laboratory measurements data and other researcher's data.

최근에 이상기후로 인해 예측하기 힘든 기상현상들이 돌발적이고 대규모의(또는 설계빈도를 초과하는) 집중호우를 야기하여 댐과 같은 수공구조물의 안전을 위협하고 있다. 그러므로 이러한 대규모의 집중호우로 발생되는 댐의 붕괴에 대한 대책을 수립하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 특히 댐의 붕괴가 도시의 침수로 이어지는 경우는 더욱 많은 인명과 재산피해를 발생시키므로 도시지역을 흐르는 범람홍수파의 특성에 대한 규명은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 홍수범람파의 특성을 3차원 수치모형인 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 모의하였다. 저류 수심 0.4m, 두께 0.8m의 댐이 붕괴하여 붕괴폭이 1m가 된다고 가정하였고, 도시지역은 댐으로부터 5m 거리에 위치한다고 가정하였다. 대상 도시지역은 $0.3m{\times}0.3m{\times}0.6m$($L{\times}W{\times}H$)인 정사각형 블록들을 $5{\times}5$ 정방향으로 배치하였고, 수리실험 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 그리고 범람홍수파가 흐름방향과 일치하게 접근해오는 경우와 도시지역으로의 접근각도에 따른 범람홍수파의 변화를 보기위해 흐름방향에 대하여 각각 $10^{\circ}$, $22.5^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$ 회전시킨 경우에 대해 수치모의를 수행하였다. 그리고 각 경우의 침수영향들을 비교하여 그 차이점을 분석하였다. 모의 결과 범람홍수파의 접근각도가 흐름방향에 대해 커질수록 도시선단에서 도수는 적게 일어났고 유속도 감소하였으며, 수심은 증가하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 범람홍수파가 흐름방향과 일치하게 접근해 올 때가 가장 위험한 case 라는 것을 알 수 있다. 이 결과는 추후 유체-구조물간의 연성해석을 통하여 범람 홍수파의 흐름이 건물에 주는 영향까지 파악한다면 예방대책 수립의 보다 더 정확한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
