This study presented numerical simulations of smooth-bed flows in the rectangular open-channel using the source code by OpenFOAM. For the analysis of the turbulent flow, Large Eddy Simulations were carried out and the dynamic sub-grid scale model proposed by Germano et al. (1991) is used to model the residual stress term. In order to analyze the coherent structure, the uw quadrant method proposed by Lu and Willmarth (1973) is used and the contribution rate and the fraction time of the instantaneous Reynolds stress are obtained in the Reynolds stress. The results by the present study are analyzed and compared with data from previous laboratory studies and direct numerical simulations. It is found that the contribution rate of the ejection events is larger than that of sweep events over the buffer layer in the open-channel flow over the smooth bed, however, the frequency of the sweep event is higher than that of the ejection events.

The purpose of this study is to examine the control function of discharged flow due to the shape and plane arrangement of permeable submerged breakwater. For the discussion on it in detail, 3-dimensional numerical model based on PBM (Porous Body Model), which is able to simulate directly interaction of Fluid Permeable structure Seabed has been used to simulate water discharge in a NWT (Numerical Water Tank). To verify the applicability, LES-WASS-3D is analyzed comparing to the experimental result about propagation characteristics of dam-break wave through a permeable structure. Using the results obtained from numerical simulation, the effects of the shape and plane arrangement of submerged breakwater on reducing velocity and flow induction have been discussed related to the mean flow distribution and vertical distributions of horizontal velocities around ones.

최근 기상변동성 증가와 극치수문사상의 발생빈도 증가로 인한 기상재해가 빈번하게 일어나고 있다. 이러한 기상현상으로 인한 재해의 예방을 위해서 사전에 위험을 인지하고 그 규모를 예측할 수 있는 여러 기법들이 기상레이더 또는 수치예보자료 등을 이용하여 개발 및 적용되고 있다. 이 과정에서 해결해야 할 여러 문제점들이 있는데, 우선 수치예보자료 또는 기상레이더자료를 종관기상관측소 및 자동기상관측지점의 지상관측 강수량과 연계하여 평가하는 과정이 필요하고, 현재시점에 형성되어 있는 강우장의 공간 이동 예측 기법이 확보되어야 할 것이다. 전북지역은 게릴라성 집중호우가 빈번한 산악형 강수와 산지유역의 급한 하천경사가 맞물려 인명 및 재산피해가 매년 발생하고 있으며, 과거 돌발홍수가 발생한 사례가 있어 이상기후 및 기후변화로 인한 홍수 위험도가 커질 것으로 전망되고 있다. 본 연구는 전라북도의 기상재해 예측모형 개발을 위한 사전 분석과정으로 전라북도지역에서 관측된 기존의 대규모 강수사상을 이용한 강수사상의 특성 분류 및 관측소간 공간상관성을 분석하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 강수사상의 특성분류를 통해 강수 발생형태에 따른 기상학적 영향인자, 강수의 발생량 및 이동특성 예측의 정도를 향상시킬 수 있으며, 분류 기법으로 SVM(support vector machine)을 이용한 자동분류를 적용한다. 또한 관측소간 공간상관성 분석을 위하여 각 관측소 강수량간의 조건부 확률을 이용한다. 예로써 부안관측소에 강수가 발 생했을 때, 부안관측소의 강수량 조건에 의한 전주관측소 강수량 확률을 다음과 같이 구성할 수 있다. �揚滑斂�수량�咀刮활�수량��. 공간상관성 분석과정에서 관측소간 강수 이동시간에 따른 강수 발생 시간의 차이 또한 고려하며, 과거 기상관측 자료의 분석을 통해 전라북도지역의 관측소간 강수발생의 공간적 상관성을 규명하고, 단기예측 모델 개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 기후변화시나리오에 의한 미래 강수량의 지역적 상세화 과정에도 본 연구를 통한 결과를 이용할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

The responses of stone column-improved ground under seismic loading are investigated using a series of 1g shaking table tests. These tests show similar results to those of one dimensional numerical models for stone column-improved ground based on Baez's assumption on the soil and stone-column interaction. The experimental and numerical results show that the stone column can prevent large shear deformations incurred due to cyclic softening in clayey deposits, but they also show that the surface acceleration in the improved clayey deposits may amplify more than that in unimproved clayey deposits when subjected to short periodic seismic motions.

Tidal and wind-driven currents in Chinhae Bay are investigated using a three-dimensional numerical model developed by Kim et al. (1993). The simulations indicate that the flow patterns in the bay are predominated by the bathymetry, wind and river inflow, and the effects of wind on the flow pattern in the inner bay are much stronger than those in the entrance channel. Computed tidal currents coincide with the field measurements. The horizontal and vertical velocities of tidal and residual currents are strong in the entrance channel of the bay, whereas the velocities are relatively weak in the western and northern parts of the bay. Computed velocity fields show the expected phase difference between the velocities in the surface and those in the bottom layer, and these characteristics are more remarkable during the spring tide than the neap tide. The surface currents in the bay depend strongly on the wind and river inflow, and such phenomena are more remarkable during the neap tide than the spring tide.

The areas consisting of frost susceptible soils in cold regions, such as the Arctic area, have problems of frost heave and thaw settlement due to the seasonal air temperature changes and internal temperature of installed structures. Ground stabilization methods for preventing frost heave and thaw settlement of frost susceptible soils include trenching, backfilling and thermo-syphon. The thermo-syphon is the method in which refrigerant can control the ground temperature by transferring the ground temperature to atmosphere in the from of two-phase flow through the heat circulation of the internal refrigerant. This numerical study applied the function of these thermo-syphon as the boundary condition through user-subroutine coding inside ABAQUS and compared and analyzed the temperature results of laboratory experiments.

하천에 설치된 횡단구조물은 어류의 이동을 방해하거나 불가능하게 만들지만, 어도를 통해 어류의 이동 및 서식생태에 미치는 영향을 최소화할 수 있다. 하천에 서식하는 대부분의 어종은 연중 회유하는 특성을 갖기 때문에 어류의 자유로운 이동을 위해서 어도는 필수적으로 설치해야 하는 시설이다. 어도는 어류의 유영능력을 기반으로 수리시설물의 낙차나 하천의 유량 등을 고려하여 설계한다. 이처럼 어도 내의 흐름은 어류의 소상능력에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자로 평가되고 있으며 어도 내 흐름에 따라 어도의 이동효율에 차이가 발생한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수치모의를 통해 계단식 어도 내의 어류 친화적 흐름의 특성을 연구하였다. 어류 친화적 흐름은 어류가 쉽게 유영할 수 있는 흐름을 의미하며, 유속, 난류운동에너지, 에너지소산을 기준으로 판단할 수 있다. 이를 위해 3차원 수치모형 FLOW-3D를 이용하였으며, 개수로 실험을 통해 모델의 검증을 수행하였다. 연구에서 사용한 어도의 형식은 국내에서 전체 어도의 20%를 차지하고 있는 계단식 어도로 선정하였다. 수위와 유속에 따라 흐름조건을 설정하였으며, 실험결과를 통해 어류의 유영능력에 영향을 미치는 3가지 항목의 값을 계산하여 어도 내의 어류 친화적 흐름의 적합성을 판단하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 최적의 흐름조건을 제시하였다. 향후, 본 연구결과는 계단식 어도를 설계하는 것에 기초자료가 될 수 있을 것이라 기대된다. 그러나 어도의 설계는 어도의 설치위치나 어도의 입구 위치 및 형태 등과 같은 설치계획에 따라 어도의 이동효율이 좌우될 수 있기 때문에 하천환경을 고려하는 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper introduces a new method to estimate the loss of prestressing force for the externally prestressing tendon. The proposed method that combines of HGA and FEM is able to identify the lost tensile force of a externally prestressed tendon. The identification variables of the proposed method is a exteranlly prestressed tendon of tension, effective nominal diameter, mass per unit length and Rayleigh damping coefficients. First of all, a finite element model system is constructed to consider the effect of damping, and these variables are identified using inverse analysis technique - updating algorithm. Finally, throughout total 3 cases of numerical tests, the numerical propriety of the proposed method is verified. Here, it is seen that the errors in the estimated variables by the proposed method are about 1% except in the case of Rayleigh damping coefficients.

In this study, a coupled probabilistic framework is developed to assess wind risk on apartment buildings by using the convolution of wind hazard and fragility functions. In this framework, typhoon induced extreme wind is estimated by applying the developed Monte Carlo simulation model to the climatological data of typhoons affecting Korean peninsular from 1951 to 2013. The Monte Carlo simulation technique is also used to assess wind fragility function for 4 different damage states by comparing the probability distributions of the window system's resistance performance and wind load. Wind hazard and fragility functions are modeled by the Weibull and lognormal probability distributions based on simulated wind speeds and failure probabilities. The modeled functions are convoluted to obtain the wind risk for the different damage levels. The developed probabilistic framework clearly shows that wind risk are influenced by various important characteristics of terrain and apartment building such as location of building, exposure category, topographic condition, roof angle, height of building, etc. The risk model presented in this paper can be used as tools to predict economic loss estimation and to establish wind risk mitigation plan for the existing building inventory.

This paper presents experimental and numerical research results of centrifuge model tests performed to investigate the geotechnical engineering behavior of slag compaction pile as a substitute of sand compaction pile. For centrifuge model tests, bearing capacity of composit soil improved with slag compaction piles, stress concentrations in-between pile and soft clay, settlement characteristics, and failure modes were investigated with slags differing in their relative density. A slag was found to be a good substitute for a sand since the slag compaction pile model showed a greater yield stress intensity up to $30\%$ than the sand compaction pile model under the identical testing conditions. Stress concentration ratio tended to increase with the relative density of slag pile and the clear shear lines in the piles were observed at the depth of $2D{\sim}2.5D$ (D=dia. of model pile) from the top of the piles after loading tests. Numerical analysis with a software of CRISP, implemented with the modified Cam-clay model, was carried out to simulate the results of centrifuge model test. Test results about characteristics of load-settlement curves and stress concentration ratio are in relatively good agreements with numerical estimations.
