Based on the site characterization works in a low and intermediate level waste(LILW) repository site, the numerical simulations for groundwater flow were carried out in order to understand the groundwater flow system of repository site. To accomplish the groundwater flow modeling in the repository site, the discrete fracture network(DFN) model was constructed using the characteristics of fracture zones and background fractures. At result, the total 10 different hydraulic conductivity(K) fields were obtained from DFN model stochastically and K distributions of constructed mesh were inputted into the 10 cases of groundwater flow simulations in FEFLOW. From the total 10 numerical simulation results, the simulated groundwater levels were strongly governed by topography and the groundwater fluxes were governed by locally existed high permeable fracture zones in repository depth. Especially, the groundwater table was predicted to have several tens meters below the groundwater table compared with the undisturbed condition around disposal silo after construction of underground facilities. After closure of disposal facilities, the groundwater level would be almost recovered within 1 year and have a tendency to keep a steady state of groundwater level in 2 year.

No analytical solution exists for evaluating in-situ hydraulic conductivity of vertical cutoff walls by analyzing slug test results with consideration of transient flow. There is an analytical solution proposed to interpret a slug test performed in a partially penetrated well within an aquifer. However, this analytical solution cannot be directly applied to the cutoff wall because the solution has been developed exclusively for an infinite aquifer instead of a narrow cutoff wall. To consider the cutoff wall boundary conditions (i.e, constant head boundary and no flux boundary condition), the analytical solution has been modified in this study to take into account the narrow boundaries by introducing the imaginary well theory. Type curves are constructed from the currently derived analytical solution and compared with those of a partially penetrated well within an aquifer. The constant head boundary condition provides faster hydraulic head recovery curve than the aquifer case. On the other hand, no flux boundary condition leads to slower hydraulic head recovery. The bigger the shape factor and deviation of the well and the smaller the width of the vertical cutoff wall are, the more effect of boundary condition was observed. The type curves obtained from the analytical solution for a cutoff wall are similar to those made by the numerical method in the literature.

Through the modeting study on the groundwater now system around the underground stockpile site of crude oil near Seoul, we carried out the research on the influence of the groundwater yield near the site, the effect of the water curtain construction in order to reduce the influence of water yield, and the realized case study by measuring the water level change after the construction of the water curtain. For the simu1ation of the water yield and the water curtain, the nwnerical analysis code, MODFLOW has been utilized. Groundwater levels of the observation wells which were established to observe the hydraulic head around underground oil storage cavern of the study area have been changed in the range of from EL.+30 to +60 meter, while the simulation study revealed that groundwater levels changed in the range of from EL.+20 to +5Om. The hydrogeological condition of the underground oil storage cavern becomes stable by injection water to maintain the groundwater level around the cavern. The result shows the proper input of the hydrogeological factors helps the management to be effective for the oil stockpile site.

지역규모의 기후변화 모의결과를 이용하여 금강유역 용담댐의 홍수기 치수안전도에 대한 민감도분석을 수행하였다. 기후변화 모의에 사용된 SNURCM(Seoul National University Regional Climate Model)은 미국 National Center for Atmospheric Research의 Community Climate System Model의 전지구모형을 기반으로 spectral nudging 기법을 사용한 공간해상도 30 km, 연직 21층의 지역기후모형이다. 기후변화 시나리오로는 SRES 'B1'이 사용되었으며 과거 control run에 대한 기후모의 정확도 분석을 통하여 SNURCM 기상자료를 관측치와 비교한 결과 면적강우량을 다소 과소추정하였고 이점을 감안하여 SNURCM의 일 모의결과에 보정 계수를 적용하였다. 하천유출량은 SSARR 모형을 이용하여 SNURCM 모의가 수행된 전체기간을 $1980{\sim}1999$년과 $2000{\sim}2019$년으로 20년씩 나누어 용담댐 일 유입량을 산정하여 통계분석을 실시하였고 과거와 미래 20년 동안을 비교하여 본 결과 (1) 유량의 평균보다는 분산이 미래 20년 동안 증가하여 가뭄과 홍수에 대한 위험도가 증가함을 알 수 있었고, (2) 특히 연최대유량 또한 미래 20년 동안 상당히 증가하여 홍수기 치수대책이 더욱 중요해질 것으로 판단되었다. 마지막으로 용담댐 운영은 범용 시스템분석 도구인 STELLA(System Thinking Experimental Learning Laboratory with Animation) 상에서 GUI로 구현하여 유입량 변화에 따른 용담댐 치수안전도 변화를 모의해 보았다. 용담댐의 홍수기 운영은 저수지 수위가 제한수위를 초과하기 시작하면 Rigid ROM 발효하여 방류량을 결정하도록 구성하였고, 무효방류(spill)가 일어나는 현상을 실패로 가정하여 이에 대한 신뢰도(reliability), 회복도(resiliency), 그리고 심도(vulnerability)를 치수안전도 지표로 계산하였다. 전체기간을 1980년${\sim}$1999년, 2000년${\sim}$2019년, 2000년${\sim}$2009년, 그리고 2010년${\sim}$2019년까지 총 4구간으로 나누어 결과를 도출하였으며 예상한 바와 같이 후반기 20년 동안에 세 가지 지표가 취약해 지는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 특히 2000년부터 2009년까지 10년 동안에는 더욱 취약해짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study developed an operating rule curve (ORC) for multipurpose water supply (irrigation and environmental water) in heightened agricultural reservoir. Among the 20 reservoirs in improvement project of agricultural reservoir dam heightening, the 4 representative reservoirs (Ungyang, Gungchon, Yongam and Unam) were selected for the study according to the analysis of statistical characteristics. Available environmental water supply amounts during irrigation and non-irrigation periods, which is the range from release restricted water level to high water level were estimated by water balance analysis using reservoir operation model. Reliability, resiliency and vulnerability criteria for water system performance were used to assess the multiple water supply capacity. The ORC was presented as the percentile rank for the daily reservoir water level from the results of reservoir operation using the past couple of decades weather data. The water levels for each percentile were divided into 3 buffer sections representing drought (5~25%), normal (25~75%), and flood (75~95%) year to operate the heightened agricultural reservoir with ORC.

The aim of this study is the safety and an accident prevention in limestone terrain by the underground tunneling. The geology of the study area consists of a Paleozoic sedimentary sequence dominated by limestone, sandstone, shale, and carbonaceous shale. The sequence gently dips to the northeast but the joint contains steep with variable trend. A significant fracture zone is developed in the limestone and shale beds, sub-parallel to bedding, and follows in part the limestone-sandstone contact. Monitoring of groundwater levels in the area shows marked fluctuations in the water table, which repeatedly rose to a level of -4 m before sinking to -15 m. These cycles occurred in mid-May, 2007 and in early and middle June. The data indicate that these fluctuations were unrelated to rainfall that occurred during the study period. We infer that the fluctuations were associated with the development of underground karstic networks along the deep fracture zone, and overlying ground subsidence is likely related to the rapid sinking of groundwater and the associated strong downward suction force.

Slug tests are the most widely used field method for quantification of hydraulic conductivity of porous media. Well recovery is affected by well casing, borehole radii, screened length, hydraulic conductivity, and specific storage of porous media. In this study, a new slug tests model was developed through finite element approximation and the validity and usefulness of the model were tested in various ways. Water level fluctuation in a well under slug test and cons-equent groundwater flow in the surrounding porous medium were appropriately coupled through estimation of well-flux using an iteration technique. Numerical accuracy of the model was verified using the Cooper et al. (1967) solution. The model has advantages in simulations for monitored slug tests, partial penetration, and inclusion of storage factor. Volume coverage of slug tests is significantly affected by storage factor. Magnitude and speed of propagation of head changes from a well increases as storage factor becomes low. It will be beneficial to use type curves of monitored head transients in the surrounding porous formation for estimation of specific storage. As the vertical component of groundwater flow is enhanced, the influence of storage factor on well recovery decreases. For a radial-vertical flow around a partially penetrated well, deviations between hydraulic estimates by various methods and data selection of recovery curve are negligible on practical purposes, whereas the deviations are somewhat significant for a radial flow.

Artificial recharge technology is a method for solving problems such as groundwater level drop and ground subsidence caused by groundwater withdrawal. This study investigated the applicability of using the hydraulic conductivity of an aquifer to predict injection test results for aquifer restoration. Pumping and injection tests were performed under the same conditions as those for the artificial injection facility located in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do. The hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer, which plays a decisive role in restoring the groundwater level, was derived from the pumping test. A numerical model of a simplified on-site aquifer was constructed, and a transient analysis was applied with the same conditions as the pumping test. The correlation between the measured and the resulting model values is strong (R² = 0.78). The injection test was performed in a sedimentary layer composed of silt sand and clay sand. From the results of the injection test, an empirical formula was derived using Theim's formula, which is a common well analysis solution to determine the parameters of the aquifer from time-level data. The model values from the empirical formula have a high degree of correlation (R² = 0.99) with measured values. Under specific conditions, for areas where it is difficult to conduct an injection test, the formula from this study, which relies on the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer determined through the pumping test, may be used to predict reliable injection rates for groundwater restoration.

국내는 1960년대부터 시작된 급속한 산업화 및 도시화로 인해 하천 환경이 지속적으로 오염 및 훼손되어 왔다. 하천을 관리함에 있어서 치수목적을 중심으로 한 직강화와 콘크리트 제방과 더불어 하천변의 공간이 주차장이나 도로로 사용되었다. 또한, 하천의 홍수피해 방지, 도심의 택지 및 농경지 등의 토지 확보를 위한 대규모 하천정비사업으로 인해 과거 자연상태의 하천은 홍수터 내 저류능력 상실, 생태환경공간 훼손 등으로 하천의 자연적 환경 기능이 매우 악화된 상황이다. 최근 들어 치수 기능만을 위한 공학적 효율 위주의 하천관리 정책에서 벗어나 하천의 환경적 기능의 개선, 자연하천으로의 생태복원사업이 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 하천의 특성을 고려하지 않은 무분별한 복원공법의 적용결과 호안의 안정성이 고려되지 않은 복원사업들이 진행되기도 한다. 진정한 자연하천으로의 복원은 하천기능의 회복과 함께 호안의 안정성까지 고려된 복원이어야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 경상남도 김해시의 생태복원 하천을 대상으로 하여 HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS 등과 같은 수리 수문 모형을 이용하여 다양한 조건의 유량과 수위에 대하여 소류력 평가 공식을 활용하여 기설 고수호안의 안정성을 분석하였다. 신어천을 대상으로 각 하천마다 적용된 공법을 조사하고 지점별 적용 공법과 평균 소류력의 관계를 파악하여 고수호안의 안정성을 분석하고자 하였다. 향후 본 연구결과를 활용하여 각 호안공법의 수리학적 설계기준을 제안할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
