In this study, the stability of armor blocks of rubble-mound breakwaters is investigated based on the 2-dimensional hydraulic model test with irregular waves. Amor blocks were used the three types; rock, cube and tetrapod. And Hudson formula and van der Meer formula which are used for calculating the weight of armor blocks are considered. Hudson formula was developed from regular wave tests, while van der Meer formula was developed from irregular wave tests. The purpose of this paper is to compare and test two selected stability formulas using the experimental data.

본 연구에서는 사석경사제의 전면부에 불투과성 수중방파제를 설치하여, 불규칙파의 반사에 대한 수치모의와 수리모형실험을 수행하였다. 수치해석 모형에는 Reynolds Averaged Navier-stokes (RANS) 방정식을 지배방정식으로 사용하였고, 난류해석을 위하여 $\kappa-\varepsilon$ 방정식을 사용하였다. 자유수면변위의 정확한 예측을 위하여 VOF 기법을 적용하였다. 수리모형실험은 한양대학교 수리실험실의 조파수로에서 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 입사파랑으로 불규칙파를 조파하였으며, Bretsch neider-Mistuyasu 스펙트럼을 목표스펙트럼으로 하여 재현하였다. 반사율의 산정에서 입사파와 반사파를 분리하기 위하여 수치모형실험에서는 3점법을 사용하였고, 수리모형실험에서는 2점법을 사용하였다. 수치모의를 통하여 예측된 반사율과 수리모형실험에서 관측한 결과는 서로 잘 일치하였다.

A numerical model, which can compute deformation of rubble mound structures composed with various size materials, was proposed. In the numerical model, wave field into the mound structures was computed by CADMAS-SURF and the deformations of mound structures were computed by DEM. Interaction between wave field and sectional deformation of structure was considered and to present the variation of behaviors caused by various properties of materials, computation was carried out with random coefficients by Monte Carlo simulation method for contact stiffness and friction angle. The experiments were carried out with rubbles and glass balls with radius of 2.9cm, 2.6cm and 1.5cm. And the deformation characteristics of rubble mounds composed with various size materials were clarified. Furthermore the validity and the applicability of the model were discussed by comparing with the experimental results.

For the design of composite breakwater as representative one of the coastal and harbor structures, it has been widely discussed by the researchers about the relation between the behavior of excess-pore-water pressure inside the rubble mound and seabed caused by the wave load and its structural failure. Recently, the researchers have tried to verify its relation through the numerical simulation technique. The above researches through numerical simulation have been mostly applied by the linear and nonlinear analytic methods, but there have been no researches through the numerical simulation by the strongly nonlinear mutiphase flow analytical method considering wave-breaking phenomena by VOF method and turbulence model by LES method yet. In the preceding research of this study, olaFlow model based on the mutiphase flow analytical method was applied to the nonlinear interaction analysis of regular wave-composite breakwater-seabed. Also, the same numerical techniques as preceding research are utilized for the analysis of irregular wave-composite breakwater-seabed in this study. Through this paper, it is investigated about the horizontal wave pressures, the time variations of excess-pore-water pressure and their frequency spectra, mean flow velocities, mean vorticities, mean turbulent kinetic energies and etc. around the caisson, rubble mound of the composite breakwater and seabed according to the changes of significant wave height and period. From these results, it was found that maximum nondimensional excess-pore water pressure, mean turbulent kinetic energy and mean vorticity come to be large equally on the horizontal plane in front of rubble mound, circulation of inflow around still water level and outflow around seabed is formed in front of rubble caisson.

A theoretical formulation is performed to investigate the wave reflection and transmission ratios by a submerged multi-layered rubble-mound breakwater. This theory, which is based on the linear boundary integral method, can be extended to the multi-layered breakwater with arbitrary cross section. In the theoretical analysis evanescent mode wave is not considered, since fictitious open boundaries are put on the places far from the structure. Therefore the mathematical presentation may be simpler, and computational time shorter. The validity of obtained numerical results is demonstrated by comparing with ones of impermeable and permeable breakwaters. Comparison shows resonable agreement. On the basis of these verifications this theory is applied to the one and two-layered submerged rubble-mound breakwater with trapezoidal type.

In this paper, the method of determining the economically-optimal design section of rubble mound breakwater, using ADS program, was studied to supplement the deterministic approach. First of all, the design waves are computed, according to the return periods, using the Weibull distribution from the data of waves at the location of the breakwater. In order to take an optimal section, according to the return periods, the ADS program was used. The restriction conditions and objective functions are decided from the references of the specifications and standard manuals for Coastal and Harbor Construction Work. Results from this study support the ADS program as an appropriate method for determining the economically-optimal section of rubble mound breakwater, comparing the construction costs and the initial and damage repair costs for its life time.

A new approach to reliability analysis of rubble mound breakwater using neural network is proposed. At first, a neural network model which can estimate the stability number of any breakwaters for some design conditions is trained. Then, the neural network model is integrated with Monte Carlo simulation technique in order to calculate probability of failure for the breakwater. The proposed technique is compared with conventional approach using empirical formula.

연안 구조물의 대표적인 형식인 경사식 방파제 또는 호안의 축조시에 이형블럭을 전면에 피복하여 사석부의 제체를 보호하는 형태가 널리 채택되고 있다. 이러한 연안 구조물의 축조 형식은 오랜 경험 및 피복용 이형블럭의 고안과 더불어 변형, 발전된 공법이다. 최근 물동량의 증가 및 선박의 대형화 등으로 인해 기존 항만의 확장시에 대수심 쪽으로 전진, 배치되는 추세에 있으므로 대파랑에 대응하기 위한 피복재의 중량 증가가 예상된다. (중략)

Until recently the other attempts except linear elastic analysis using assumed elastic modulus had not been made in order to evaluate the settlement of the rock fill materials in Korea. Especially, it was almost impossible to predict the precise settlement of the breakwater structure made with dumped rubble stone. In this study, 3 sets of large scaled triaxial compression tests for porous basaltic quarry rocks were carried out and numerical simulation of those triaxial compression tests were performed applying non linear elastic model. Two stress-strain behaviors were compared to study the adaptability of hyperbolic constitutive model for the rubble stone. The results showed quite good agreements between the two stress-strain behaviors. Thus, the hyperbolic constitutive model is thought to be alternative approach evaluate the settlements of the loose rock-fill material.
