In land seismic exploration, irregular surface topography and weathering layer in near surface distorts the reflected signals of data. Therefore, typical land seismic data should be compensated for this distortion by static correction. To perform the static correction, near-surface velocity is required, which can be obtained by seismic refraction survey. However, land seismic data is often acquired in a limited form of geometry depending on the equipment availability, accessibility condition, and permission for the survey site. In this situation, refraction analysis should be performed using reflection data because it is impossible to acquire refraction-oriented data due to limited source and receiver geometry. In this study, we aimed to analyze the reliability of the results obtained by refraction traveltime tomography when using reflection data with a limited number of sources and receivers from irregular surface topography. By comparing the inversion result from irregular topography with that from flat surface, we found that the surface topography affects the reliability of the inversion results to some degree. We also found that the number of sources has little effect on the inversion results unless the number of sources are very small. On the other hand, we observed that velocity distortion occurred in the overlapped part of receiver arrays when using a limited number of receivers, and therefore suggested the size of the least overlapping ratio to avoid the velocity distortion. Finally, we performed numerical tests for the model which simulates the surface topography and acquisition geometry of the survey region and verified the reliability analysis of inversion results. We identified reliable areas and suspicious area of the inverted velocity model by applying the analysis results to field data.

본 연구에서는 낙동강 하구역 해역에서의 폭풍 해일의 특성 및 이를 고려한 외해 압사파랑특성을 고찰하고 연안사주 전면의 입사파랑과 퇴적 특성과의 상호 관계를 고찰하였으며 천해역의 파랑변형을 예측할 수 있는 다방향 불규칙파 묘형을 구성하고 폭풍 해일고를 수심조건에 고려함으로써 하구역 해역에서의 파랑 변형계산을 2차원 평면수치모의실험을 수행하였다. 낙동강 하구역에서 서측에 위치하는 진우도 전면해역이 무명도 전면해역보다 약 1.0배에서 2.0배 크게 파고분포를 나타내었다. 이는 입사하는 파랑의 공간 분포가 사주전면에서 공간적으로 차이가 남을 나타내는 것으로 사주의 퇴적작용에 영향을 줄 것이라고 판단된다.

The skewness of near-bottom velocity distribution caused by the nonlinear interaction of the second order waves proposed by Wells (1967) has been re-evaluated. The direction of cross-shore sediment transport was related to the sign of the third moment (skewness) of velocity distribution, and a new concept of neutral depth which can explain the recovery of beach equilibrium after a disturbance is suggested. The seasonal change of beach profile due to the change of wave condition (storm-swell profile) is interpreted in terms of nonlinear interaction of the waves rather than the conventional wave steepness. The beach is eroded (storm profile) when the nonlinear interaction of the waves is strong (storm wave), whereas the beach is accreted (swell profile) when the nonlinear interaction is weak (swell wave).

본 노문은 임의형상의 퇴적층을 갖는 반부한 영역내에서 SH하가 경사지게 입사할 때의 지진응답을 연구하였다. 그리고 비균질 퇴적층인 반무한 영역에서 파의 증폭을 다루었다. 사용한 수치해석 방법으로는 유한요소법과 경계요소법을 결합하여 수치해석하였다. 반무한 영역에서 자유장 응답과 정해를 비교 분석한 결과 잘 일치하여 검증되었다. 불규칙한 형상의 비균질 퇴적층을 갖는 부지에서의 지진응답 해석은 본 연구에서 개발한 수치해석 방법으로 가능하다. 따라서 임의 층상구조를 갖는 연약층에서의 SH파 증폭과 임의 각도와 입사하는 SH파에 대한 지진응답을 해석하였다.

The present study is to estimate the effects of diffracted wave fields in a harbor and around harborentrance due to random waves, when a navigation channel is dredged in the vicinity of the a harbor entrance. The cross sections of harbor boundary are considered to be partial or full reflection in this study. The numerical simulation has been performed by the boundary element method, which is to discrete segments of pit- and harbor- boundary with the algorism of auto generated elements. The incident wave conditions are specified using discretized forms of the Mitsuyasu's frequency spectrum and directional function. The results of the present numerical simulation agreed well with those of the published experimental data. It is shown that the ratios of wave height reduction are about 20% for the case of fully reflecting boundary, and 10% for the case of partially reflecting boundary by the effect of placing a pit, respectively.

A rudder roll control system is developed and analyzed to control the yawing and rolling motion of ship in irregular waves. The 4-DOF maneuvering equations of motion are derived to carry out the simulation of the motion of a ship and the wave forces are considered as the external forces of a ship in the simulation. The wave forces in the time domain analysis are generated from the frequency transfer function calculated by 3-D source distribution method. The rudder roll control system is developed by linear combination of PD rudder controllers of yawing and rolling motion. Rudder rate speed and Schilling rudder are considered to increase the roll reduction efficiency.

The propagation of coherent time-harmonic elastic L-and SV-waves is studied in a medium with random distribution of cylindrical inclusions. The purpose of the research is to characterize the dynamic elastic moduli and the attenuation properties of fiber-reinforced composite materials. The cylindes representing the fibers are assumed to be distributed in parallel with each other and the direction of incident waves are normal to the cylinder axes. A multiple scattering formula using the single scattering coefficients in conjunction with the Lax's quasicrystalline approximation is derived from which the dispersion relation for such medium is obtained. In order to formulate the multiple scattering interaction between cylinders, the pair correlation functions are generated by the Monte Carlo simulation technique. From the numerically evaluated complex wavenumbers, the propagation speed of the average wave, the coherent attenuation and the effective elastic moduli are presented as functions of frequency and fiber volume fraction.

In this study, the optimal slit length of perforated wall with single chamber below the still water level (SWL) is studied through the two dimensional test. The relationship between the reflection coefficient and the shape of structures such as chamber width(B) and slit length(S) are investigated by applying the various wave conditions. The random waves were used for the test by using Bretschneider-Mitsuyasu frequency spectrum. Minimum reflection coefficient is obtained at $B/L_s{\approx}0.15$ condition, this result is different from the regular wave condition. Also the minimum reflection coefficients are measured at $S/H_s{\approx}2.5$. This means that the optimal slit length below the still water level is 2.5 times of the incident wave height.

Based on the Boussinesq wave model, the wave distribution in the Chagui-Do sea area in Jeju was simulated by applying the directional irregular waves at an incident boundary. The time and spatial variations of monthly mean wave height and period were investigated, which aims to provide basic information on optimal sites for wave power generation. The grid size and time interval of the Boussinesq wave model were validated by examining wave distributions around a surface piercing wall, fixed at sea bottom with a constant slope. Except for the summer season, the significant wave height is dominated by wind waves and appears to be relatively high at the north sea of Chagui-Do, which is open to the ocean, while it is remarkably reduced at the rear sea of Chagui-Do because of its blocking effect on incident waves. In the summer, the significant wave height is higher at the south sea, and it is dominated by the swell waves, which is contributed by the strong south-west wind. The magnitude of significant wave height is the largest in the winter and the lowest in the spring. Annual average of the significant wave height is distinctively high at the west sea close to the Chagui-Do coast, due to a steep variation of water depth and corresponding wave focusing effect. The seasonal and spatial distribution of the wave period around Chagui-Do sea reveals very similar characteristics to the significant wave height. It is suggested that the west sea close to the Chagui-Do coast is the mast promising site for wave power generation.
