Since the centrifugal force acts on the flow in the curved channel, a transverse water surface gradient occurs and the thalweg is biased toward the outer bank. The submerged vanes may be used to solve various engineering problems of the curved channels. In order to analyze the influence of an attack angle and the distance between the vane arrays on the river bed variation and the superelevation in a bend, movable bed hydraulic experiments were conducted in a $90^{\circ}$ curved rectangular channel of a small-size gravel bed. Installing the submerged vanes in the bend increases the maximum scour depth. But if vanes are installed in a uniform obtuse angle, the scour depth may be reduced. If the flow rate in the channel bend with vanes equals to the channel forming discharge, the location of the maximum scour depth moved to the downstream and the superelevation increased. However if the flow rate is smaller than that, the location of the maximum scour depth moved upstream and the superelevation decreased. The channel bed change and the superelevation due to the installation of the submerged vanes have been dependent on the interaction of the attack angle, the flow rate, and the distance between the arrays.

현재까지 국내에서 2차원 흐름 해석을 위한 SMS의 RMA-2는 합류지점이나 만곡수로 내의 유속분포, 수위변동 등에 관한 연구가 대부분이었다. 그러나 경계조건으로 입력되어지는 하천의 유입량과 유출수위는 실측이 어려우며 자료의 특성상 결측값도 많아 실제와는 다르게 대부분의 연구에서 정상류로 모의되었다. 본 연구에서는 WMS의 HEC-1 프로그램을 이용하여 RMA를 부정상류로 모의하였다. 모의결과 실제 하천은 빈도별 지류의 영향을 받아 유속이 0.05에서 0.46까지 변화하였다.

To design ship channels is one of important factors for planning and developing a port. Bends in channels should be avoided if possible, but the channel should be widened, if channel bend is unavoidable, considering the swept path of a ship for safe passage. In this study, Variable Bumper Area(VBA) model is applied to determine the channel widths in bends. The result of this study shows that the width of the bend may be designed as nearly same size of that in straight channel in case that the angle of deflection is less than 30 degrees, and that of the bend with 60 degrees deflection should be widened based on the length of the largest ship using the channel and the angle of deflection.

Turbulent flow structure in the high amplitude meandering channel is complex due to secondary recirculation with helicoidal motions and shear layers formed by flow separation from the curved sidewall. In this work, the secondary flow and the superelevation of the water surface produced in the high-amplitude Kinoshita channel are reproduced by the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) computations using the VOF technique for resolving the variation of water surface elevation and three statistical turbulence models ($k-{\varepsilon}$, RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$, $k-{\omega}$ SST). The numerical results computed by a second-order accurate finite volume method are compared with an existing experimental measurement. Among applied turbulence models, $k-{\omega}$ SST model relatively well predicts overall distribution of the secondary recirculation in the Kinoshita channel, while all three models yield similar prediction of water superelevation transverse slope. The secondary recirculation driven by the radial acceleration in the upstream bend affects the flow structure in the downstream bend, which yields a pair of counter-rotating vortices at the bend apex. This complex flow pattern is reasonably well reproduced by the $k-{\omega}$ SST model. Both $k-{\varepsilon}$ based models fail to predict the clockwise-rotating vortex between a pair of counter-rotating vortices which was observed in the experiment. Regardless of applied turbulence models, the present computations using the VOF method appear to well reproduce the superelevation of water surface through the meandering channel.

Shaping the root canal system to maintain original canal curvature is essential to clinical success in endodontic treatment. Opposed to most root canals that are curved, endodontic instruments are made from straight metal blanks. They have a tendency of straightening the root canal during preparation and frequently result in procedural errors. A new treatment method to maintain original canal curvature during shaping has been introduced for preventing procedural errors. The aim of this study was to compare the ability of instruments to maintain original canal curvature of continuous rotary system and single file system. Thirty ISO 15, 0.02 taper, Endo Training Blocks(Dentsplay Maillefer) were used. Specimens were assigned to 1 of 3 groups for shaping: specimens in group 1 were shaped with ProFile #20/.06 at the WL. Specimens in group 2 were shaped with Mtwo #35/.04 at the WL. Specimens in group 3 were shaped with WaveOne Primary reciprocating files at the WL after the glide path was achieved with PathFile. Pre- and postinstrumentation digital images were superimposed and processed with Matlab r2010b(The MathWorks Inc, Natick, MA) software to analyze the curvature-radius ratio(CRr), representing canal curvature modification. Data for comparison on the ability of instruments to maintain original canal curvature depending on each Ni-Ti file were analyzed with 1-way ANOVA(P<.05). Data for comparison on the ability of instruments to maintain original canal curvature depending on each Ni-Ti file system were analyzed with independent t-test(P<.05). A statistically significant difference(P<0.05) was noted on each Ni-Ti file. ProFile and WaveOne instrumentations maintained the original canal curvature significantly better(P<0.05) than Mtwo file. There were no significant difference(P>0.05) between continuous rotary system and single file system. Under the conditions of this study, ProFile and WaveOne instruments maintained the original curvature significantly better than Mtwo file and were less modification of the canal curvature compared. There was no significant difference between continuous rotary system and single file system in shaping of simulated canals. As clinical practitioners, it may be advantages to use hybrid approach when root canal shapes depending on the design and usage of Ni-Ti files.

The flow in the meandering channel is characterized by the spiral motion of secondary currents that typically cause the erosion along the outer bank. Hydraulic structures, such as spur dike and groyne, are commonly installed on the channel bottom near the outer bank to mitigate the strength of secondary currents. This study is to investigate the effects of submerged vanes installed in a $90^{\circ}$ meandering channel on the development of secondary currents through three-dimensional numerical modeling using the hybrid RANS/LES method for turbulence and the volume of fluid method, based on OpenFOAM open source toolbox, for capturing the free surface at the Froude number of 0.43. We employ the second-order-accurate finite volume methods in the space and time for the numerical modeling and compare numerical results with experimental measurements for evaluating the numerical predictions. Numerical results show that the present simulations well reproduce the experimental measurements, in terms of the time-averaged streamwise velocity and secondary velocity vector fields in the bend with submerged vanes. The computed flow fields reveal that the streamwise velocity near the bed along the outer bank at the end section of bend dramatically decrease by one third of mean velocity after the installation of vanes, which support that submerged vanes mitigate the strength of primary secondary flow and are helpful for the channel stability along the outer bank. The flow between the top of vanes and the free surface accelerates and the maximum velocity of free surface flow near the flow impingement along the outer bank increases about 20% due to the installation of submerged vanes. Numerical solutions show the formations of the horseshoe vortices at the front of vanes and the lee wakes behind the vanes, which are responsible for strong local scour around vanes. Additional study on the shapes and arrangement of vanes is required for mitigate the local scour.

홍수기 호우로 인한 피해는 대부분 하천구역에서 발생되며, 이러한 피해는 인간에게 직 간접적으로 영향을 미치게 된다. 자연 상태의 하천형상은 대부분 호우로 인한 홍수로 인해 자연스럽게 만들어지게 되며, 대부분 사행하천의 형태를 띠게 된다. 사행하천에서의 흐름의 기하학적 특성은 성장이나 사멸, 또는 두 가지 모두의 형태를 보인다. 사행하천에서의 흐름 및 유속 분포는 하천제방 보호, 주운, 취수, 그리고 유사 이동 및 퇴적 패턴과 관련하여 실용적인 관점에서 연구하여야 하는 하천수리학에서는 매우 중요한 주제이다. 그리고 사행하천은 특히 만곡부가 교호적으로 나타나는 곳에서의 흐름구조가 매우 복잡하다. 이러한 사행하천에서는 회전방향이 교호적으로 바뀌는 나선형의 흐름(2차류)이 3차원적으로 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 사행하천이 많은 국내 하천특성을 고려하여, 하천 만곡부에서의 흐름특성을 분석하고자 하였으며 2차원 CCHE2D 와 3차원 FLOW3D 모형을 적용하였으며 가상 하도에 대하여 수리모형 실험의 실측치와 비교하여 모형의 정확성과 안정성을 검증하였다. 그리고 남강댐 하류에 대하여 만곡부의 흐름특성(유속 분포 및 최대유속경로, 수위분포, 2차류 거동, 편수위, 전단응력 분포 등)을 분석함으로써, 하천 만곡부에서의 수리적 특성을 보다 정확하게 제시하고자 한다. 모의 분석결과 동일 하도에 대하여 유량을 변동시킬 경우, 유량이 증가할수록 만곡부에서의 수리영향이 더욱 뚜렷해짐을 알 수 있었고 2차원 모형보다 3차원모형의 결과의 정확도가 더 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 곡률반경이 1,300~1,600 정도인 실제하천에 적용한 결과, 수위의 경우 2차원 결과가 3차원 결과보다 최대 3%정도 수위가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 또한, 상관계수가 평균 0.91의 값을 보이고 있어 2차원모형과 3차원모형의 결과가 비교적 잘 일치하는 것으로 분석되었다. 흐름 분석을 통해서 만곡부에서의 최대유속은 최정점(apex)에서 보다는 오히려 최정점 이전 하도의 내측에서 발생하였으며, 정점에서의 종단유속은 감소하지만 횡단유속은 오히려 크게 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있었다. 따라서 하천설계시 사행하천의 제방 안정성 확보를 위하여 종단유속 뿐만 아니라 횡단유속 또한 고려할 필요가 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 남강댐 하류 만곡부에서의 내측 및 외측의 수위를 분석한 결과, 제방 외측의 수위가 평균수위에 비해 최대 약 37cm정도 증가하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 만곡부에 대한 하천제방설계시 좌, 우안의 여유고를 일률적으로 적용하기 보다는 만곡에 따른 흐름특성을 분석하여 설계에 적용하여야 안정성 및 경제성을 동시에 확보할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this study we analyzed the seepage characteristics of meandering section of rivers commonly seen in domestic terrain. The seepage analysis is designed to be more realistic by considering a tangent and meandering section of levee. The levee was idealized to reflect the relevant characteristics by considering the curved angle of 90 degrees and 130 degrees in the spatial frequencies, water elevation conditions, and hydraulic conductivities. Seepage analysis becomes more detailed and precise with the seepage curve shape which is interpreted to indicate the flow of three-dimensional numerical analysis program using VisualFEA. As a result of the analysis, it is shown that the water level in the straight levee was constant, regardless of hydraulic conductivities, and the total head in the meandering section was increased by the overlapping of seepage. Consequently, it is found that the total head was increased more significantly in the case of 90 degrees curved levees than 130 degrees, and the total head showed similar characteristics In the straight levee.

홍수위 산정을 위하여 이용되는 기법은 평균적인 홍수위 산정이 가능한 1차원모형과 하천 좌우의 수심 편차까지 해석이 가능한 2차원 모형 및 수심에 대한 변동까지 해석이 가능한 3차원 모형으로 구분된다. 이중에서 기본계획 수립시 사용되는 모형은 1차원 수치해석 모형으로 하천 단면별로 평균홍수위 만을 산정하므로 만곡부하천의 특성의 영향이 반영되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 만곡부 하천을 선정하여 총2.4Km구간의 모형을 제작하였으며, 수리모형 실험을 통하여 일차원 및 이차원 수치해석을 실시하여 모형실험값과 비교 고찰하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 일차원 수치해석은 HEC-RAS모형을, 이차원 수치해석에서는 SMS모형을 사용 하였다. 연구결과, 유속의 경우 우안지점의 평균 유속은 모형실험은 8.33m/s, 일차원 및 이차원 수치해석은 각각 3.08m/s, 8.57m/s로 나타남을 확인 하였으며, 평균유속은 이차원 수치해석이 모형실험과 유사한 값을 보였다. 또한 수위경우는 모형실험의 좌안과 우안에 대한 일차원 및 이차원 수치해석의 최대 오차는 각각 0.66m, 0.84m와 0.28m, 0.48m로 수위 또한 이차원 수치해석이 수리모형실험과 유사한 결과를 보였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 알 수 있듯이 만곡부 하천의 경우 일차원 수치해석보다는 2차원수치해석을 실시하여 기본계획을 수립하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

At the bends of a river, the deflected flow of high energy erodes the embankment and transports sediment, ultimately changing the river's course. Such phenomena lead to instability of the embankment and may cause serious problems for nearby roads, land, or riverside structures. This study intends to analyze the characteristics of hydraulic flow at S-shaped bends after the installation of Riprap Weirs designed to prevent changes in a river's course and embankment erosion. An experimental channel was constructed by a two-dimensional CCHE2D model, and analyzed the characteristics of hydraulic flow with and without the Riprap Weirs. Also, the characteristics of hydraulic flow at the inner and outer sides of river bends and at points near reservoirs were analyzed, depending on the intervals between the Riprap Weirs.
