Based on the eigenfunction expansion method, the interaction between monochromatic waves and a partially immersed slotted plate with a back wall has been investigated. Analytical results show that the reflection coefficients by a partially immersed slotted plate depend on the porosity, immersed depth, chamber width, incidence angle and wave frequency. It is found that the reflection coefficient has minimum value within entire frequency range when the porosity has optimal value 0.1. Comparison between the analytical results and the experimental results(Zhu,2001) of reflection coefficients is made for various chamber widths, immersed depths and wave periods with good agreement. The present analytic method can account adequately for energy dissipation caused by flow separation behind a slotted plate and provide the design informations for the construction of slit caisson breakwater.

Tsunami generated by the 1992 Nicaragua's west coast earthquake caused 95 persons death, 155 persons injury and 3000 persons homelessness. The previous study done by Imamura et al. (1993) were on the 1992 Nicaragua tsumami generation and propagation which were simulated by using spherical far-field model and Cartesian near-field model, and the computed results with assumption of vertical wall at coast were adjusted by runup ratio to compare with observations. This study using moving boundary model hindcasts El Transito's runup height which was observed as about 6.4-9.9m.

In general, the caisson having the perforated wall is used to for the purpose of reducing the wave reflection and wave overtopping. In this study, the hydraulic characteristics (reflection coefficient) of the perforated wall caisson chamber filled with aggregates (rocks) were investigated with hydraulic model tests. When the perforated wall chambers were filled with aggregates, the reflection coefficients would increase. However, it was confirmed that the rock filling method into the perforated wall chamber could secure the stability of the structures and satisfy the hydraulic characteristics at a certain level.

Numerical analyses of stem waves, the interaction between incident and reflected waves of obliquely incident regular waves along a vertical wall in a constant water depth, are presented. For the numerical model of the analysis, the two-layer Boussinesq equations developed by Lynett and Liu(2004a,b) are employed. Numerical results are compared with both laboratory measurements and those obtained using parabolic approximation model. The overall comparisons between the results from the two numerical models and the experiments are good. However, the two-layer Boussinesq model is more accurate than the parabolic approximation model as the angle of incident waves increases. In particular, the higher harmonic generation due to the wave nonlinearity is captured only in the Boussinesq model.

To investigate varying wave impact pressure exerting at the crest wall of rubble mound seawall, depending on breaking wave properties, regular waves with different wave periods were generated. Wave velocity fields and void fraction were measured using bubble image velocimetry and simple combined wave gauge system (Na and Son, 2021). For the waves with shorter wave period, maximum horizontal velocity was less reduced compared to incident wave speed while breaking-induced air entrainment was occurred intensely, leading to a significant reduction of wave impact pressure at the crest wall. For the waves with longer wave periods, less air wave entrained and the wave structure followed a flip-through mode (Cooker and Peregrine, 1991), resulting in an abrupt increase of the impact pressure.

일반적으로 지진해일은 지진, 화산에 의한 융기 또는 침강에 따른 급작스러운 해저지각 운동에 의해 발생하며, 이에 따른 수위변동과 유체운동을 일컫는다. 그 밖에 해안/해저 산사태, 운석 낙하, 빙하 붕괴와 같이 암석, 토사, 얼음, 운석이 바다, 호수의 수면과 충돌하여 해일이 발생하기도 한다. 이 산사태 해일의 피해사례는 많지 않지만, 대부분 인명피해를 동반한다. 이에 과거부터 수리모형실험을 통해 산사태로 생성된 해일의 전파과정을 조사하는 연구들이 수행되었다. 최근에는 컴퓨터 성능향상과 다양한 수치모델이 개발됨에 따라 수치해석이 많이 수행되고 있다. 그러나 산사태 해일의 생성을 직접 모의하기 위해서는 유체-구조 상호작용(FSI; fluid-structure interaction)을 고려할 수 있는 전산유체역학(CFD; computational fluid dynamics)해석이 요구되는 관계로 활발한 연구가 진행되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 FSI에 기초하여 충돌모의에 특화된 LS-DYNA를 이용하여 산사태 해일의 생성, 전파 그리고 직립벽(댐)에서의 처오름 및 파압 등을 검토한다. 그리고 낙하물의 형상, 낙하 높이에 따라 생성된 해일이 댐에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 또한, 이용하는 LS-DYNA 해석의 타당성 및 유효성을 확인하기 위하여 기존 수리모형실험에서 생성된 산사태 지진해일과 비교·검증한다. 수치해석 결과, 동일한 체적의 낙하물에서는 폭이 좁을수록 최대파고가 낙하물에 근접해 생성되었고, 폭이 넓을수록 파장이 길어지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 낙하물의 낙하높이가 높을수록 산사태 지진해일의 파고가 크게 생성되었다. 낙하물로부터 600m 지점에서 설치한 댐에서의 산사태 지진해일의 처오름은 파고 및 파장이 클수록 증가하였다. 산사태 지진해일의 파압 역시 처오름에 상응하게 나타났다. 그러므로 호소에서 산사태 해일이 발생한다면, 댐 및 제방의 안정성에 영향을 미칠 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The aeration of an overtopping wave on a vertical structure generated by a plunging wave was investigated through laboratory measurements of void fraction. The overtopping wave occurring after wave breaking becomes multi-phased and turbulent with significant aeration, so that the void fraction of the flow is of importance. In this study, fiber optic reflectometer and bubble image velocimetry were employed to measure the void fraction, velocity, and layer thickness of the overtopping flow. Mean properties were obtained by ensembleand time-averaging the repeated instantaneous void fractions and velocities. The mean void fractions show that the overtopping wave is very high-aerated near the overtopping wave front and relatively low-aerated near the deck surface and rear free surface of the wave. The flow rate and momentum of the overtopping flow estimated using the measured data show that the void ratio is an important parameter to consider in the multiphase flow. From the similarity profiles of the depth-averaged void fraction, velocity, and layer thickness, one-dimensional empirical equations were obtained and used to estimate the flow rate and momentum of the overtopping flow.

Due to its characteristics of acoustic wave energy absorption, punched structures are generally applied on the wall of anechoic room. When the acoustic wave propagates through the punched plates, its energy dissipates into thermal energy by flow separation induced from the viscosity of acoustic media. The acoustic pressure difference between the for-side and the aft-side of punched plate ran be represented by the sum of drag term proportional to square of velocity and inertia term proportional to acceleration. The way to get the coefficients of the terms by an experiment or relatively simple calculation is introduced.

A MCS technique is represented to stochastically analyze the uncertainties of wave forces exerted on the upright sections of composite breakwaters. A stochastical models for horizontal and uplift wave forces can be straightforwardly formulated as a function of the probabilistic characteristics of maximum wave height. Under the assumption of wave forces followed by extreme distribution, the behaviors of relative wave forces to Goda's wave forces are studied by the MCS technique. Double-truncated normal distribution is applied to take the effects of uncertainties of scale and shape parameters of extreme distribution into account properly. Averages and variances of relative wave forces are quantitatively calculated with respect to the exceedance probabilities of maximum design wave height. It is found that the averages of relative wave forces may be decreased consistently with the increases of the exceedance probabilities. In particular, the averages on uplift wave force are evaluated slightly larger than those on horizontal wave force, but the variations of coefficient of the former are adversely smaller than those of the latter. It means that the uncertainties of uplift wave forces are smaller than those of horizontal wave forces in the same condition of the exceedance probabilities. Therefore, the present results could be useful to the reliability based-design method that require the statistical properties about the uncertainties of wave forces.

This study was carried out to understand the anatomical characteristics of Korean mistletoe (Viscum album var. coloratum) and host tree of Mongolian oak (Quercus mongolica) by the aid of light and scanning electron microscopy. The branch diameter of host tree at the parasitic part by mistletoe is larger than that of non-parasitic part. In the mistletoe, phloem consists of bast fiber and parenchyma cell and xylem is composed of fiber, ray and axial parenchyma cell, and vascular tracheid. The volume of ray parenchyma cell is higher than common wood species and is heterocellular made up of procumbent, upright, and square cells in the mistletoe. In the vascular tracheid of mistletoe, coarse spiral thickenings and bordered pit are present. Due to the insertion of the mistletoe haustorium, some deformed vessels but no tylosis are observed in the mistletoe. The shapes of mistletoe haustorium are sharp, and the destruction of the host tree cells due to the insertion of the mistletoe haustorium are not identified.
