This study was performed to obtain the basic data to present rational silvicultural tending plan. It makes these widely distributed pine-oak mixed stand and each of pure stand in middle province on object of this study and do comparative analysis of light condition about stand parameter and natural regeneration according to each slope(north, west and south) conditions of location in central part of South Korea. Sample plots for pine-oak mixed stand and pine and oak pure stand were established on each of southern, northern and western slopes based upon site and growth conditions of the slope. Sample plot was a circle of 0.05ha with a diameter of 25.24 m. A sample plot has between 30 and 40 tree in it. Total 23 sample plots were established; 9 pure pine stands, 8 pine-oak mixed stands. and 6 pure oak stands across lower, middle, upper parts of slopes. Relative light intensity within a stand was' measured by crown- photo(fish-eye lens; 180$^{\circ}$) system through fish-eye lens and by comparing each plot with the denuded through PAR-sensor. The crown closure ratio of pure pine stand (75%) shows much lower than that of mixed stand (90.9%) and pure oak stand (93%). The relative light intensity within a stand showed an opposite result. The crown closure of mixed stands tended to become gradually low as the slope moves from the north to the south, but the relative light Intensity within the stand tended to rise. By analyzing the relationship between the relative light intensity within a stand and stand parameter, light intensity within a stand tended to decrease as the diameter and N/ha increase. Number of oak seedlings and light intensity within a stand is in a straight-line regression relation. In particular, the number of oak seedlings was the highest in mixed stands on the southern slope. But no single pine seedling was found. The unfavorable conditions of l0cm thick litter layer and low relative light intensity in a stand (ranging between 4% and 8%) is considered to prevent pine seeds from germinating.

The properties of fracture system on road-cut slopes along the Busan-Ulsan express way under construction are investigated and analyzed. Fracture spacing distributions show log-normal form with extension fractures and negative exponential form with shear fractures. Straight line segments in log-log plots of cumulative fracture length indicate a power-law scaling with exponents of -1.13 in site 1, -1.01 in site 2 and -1.52 in site 3. It is likely that the stability and strength of rock mass are the lowest in site 1 as judged from the analyses of spacing, density and inter-section of fractures in three sites. In contrast, the highest efficiency of the fracture network for conducting fluid flow is seen in site 3 where the largest cluster occupies 73% through the window map. Based on the field survey data, this study modified weighting values of the RMR system using a multiple regression analysis method. The analysis result suggests a modified weighting values of the RMR parameters as follows; 18 for the intact strength of rock; 61 for RQD; 2 for spacing of discontinuities; 2 for the condition of discontinuities; and 17 for ground water.

This study was carried out to investigate working time, performance, and to predict performance that related to the factor of forest road in earth work using excavator. It was found that the real working time was 503 minutes in a day. The ratio of real working time and allowance per total working time was approximately 85.7% and 14.3% individually. The rate of soil movement(Sm) to net working time was 38.6%, and earth cutting(Ec) was 32.5%. According to performance analysis, performance of earth work using excavator($0.8m^3$) in straight part was 1.4 times larger than curve part and rock work using excavator($0.8m^3$) which had breaker in straight was 9.1 times larger than earth work using excavator($0.8m^3$) which had bucket. Performance of earth work using excavator($1.0m^3$) was 1.3 times larger than using excavator($0.8m^3$) in straight and curve part. Working performance in earth work using excavator($0.8m^3$) was influenced by the conditions of radius of curve, width of roadway, slope gradient. It is not influenced by diameter and number of root stock.

We developed the estimation model for the vegetation developmental processes on the severely burned slope areas after forest fire in the east coastal region, Korea. And we calculated the vegetation indices as a useful parameter for the development of land management technique in the burned area and suggested the changes of the vegetation indices after forest fire. In order to estimate the woody standing biomass in the burned area, allometric equations of the 17 woody species regenerated by sprouter were investigated. According to the our results, twenty year after forest fire need for the development to the normal forest formed by 4 stratum structure, tree, sub-tree, shrub and herb layer. The height of top vegetation layer, basal area and standing biomass of woody species show a tendency to increase linearly, and the ground vegetation coverage and litter layer show a tendency to increase logarithmically after forest fire. Among vegetation indices, Ive and Ivcd show a tendency to increase logarithmically, and Hcl and Hcdl show a tendency to increase linearly after forest fire. The spatial variation of the most vegetation factors was observed in the developmental stages less than the first 5 years which were estimated secondary disaster by soil erosion after forest fire. Among vegetation indices, Ivc and Ivcd were the good indices for the representation of the spatial heterogeneity in the earlier developmental stages, and Hcl and Hcdl were the useful indices for the long-term estimation of the vegetation development after forest fire.

본 연구는 안동 하천실증연구센터에서 수행된 RIED 실험의 일환으로 실험수로내 식재된 버드나무 식생패치의 밀도에 따른 표면흐름의 특성을 검토하는 실험이다. 실험의 목적은 식생의 침수수위에 따른 식생주변 및 하도의 흐름특성을 검토하는 것으로 침수 수위조건은 유량공급조건의 변화를 통해 재현하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 LSPIV 기법은 하도내 입자투여를 통해 영상을 이용하여 입자간 이동속도를 분석하여 흐름장을 분석하는 것으로 본 연구에서 사용된 입자는 강랭이를 사용하였으며, 영상촬영은 크레인을 이용하여 캠코더를 이용하여 수로 상부에서 흐름영상을 취득하였다. 실험수로는 저면폭 3m, 만제폭 11m 사면경사 1:2의 구조로 이루어진 사다리꼴 형태의 직선수로로 이루어져 있다. 식생패치는 동일수로내 상부기준 32m 간격으로 설치되어 있으며 패치의 크기는 $4{\times}1.5m$의 크기로 이루어져 있다. 그림 1은 상공에서 촬영된 영상을 나타낸 그림으로 실험수로 및 LSPIV 분석을 위해 투하된 입자를 나타내는 그림이다. PIV 분석프로그램을 이용하여 분석된 식생대 및 하도영역에서의 유속장은 그림 2와 같다. 영상분석은 30초영상(900 frame)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 실험결과 식생패치 설치지점에서는 주흐름이 발생하는 우안측에서 높은 유속이 발생하고 약간의 편향된 흐름이 나타나는 것으로 확인되었다. 식생후면에서는 식생으로 인한 흐름의 차단 및 스크린효과로 인해 유속의 저감되는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 밀도에 따른 패치 후면부에서는 높은 밀도를 갖는 첫 번째 패치에서 유속의 저감효과가 높게 나타났으나 유량조건에 차이가 발생하는 것으로 나타났는데 이는 수위상승으로 인한 식생의 침수면적과 관계가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

In this research, a kinematic wave model was applied for the runoff analysis, Regulation of streamflow was estimated by the calibration of roughness coefficient as a parameter. The data analyzed were obtained from Ananomiya and Shirasaka experimental basins at Tokyo University Forest in Aichi. Estimation methods and characteristics of roughness coefficient as a evaluation method of hydrological function of forest are summarized as follows ; 1. Roughness coefficient($N_s$) indicates the resistance of hillslope to the flowing water of surface runoff. There exists an hypothesis that resistance of hillslope to flowing water increase with the growth forest and development of the $A_o$ layer. 2. Roughness coefficient($N_s$) was estimated by the parameter when the stream direct runoff was calculated by using the kinematic wave. 3. Secular change of '$N_s$' in ananomiya has a curve which has an upper limit and increases exponentially near the limit. The curve quickly increased from 1935 to 1945 when results of afforestation for erosion control were thought to be effective. On the other hand, slight increase of '$N_s$' in Shirasaka indicates that there was not such a big change in the surface of soil layer. 4. The increase of '$N_s$' was related with decrease of direct runoff and increase of base flow. It was recognized that the rate of direct runoff decreased with the improvement of forest physiognomy and the rate of base flow was increased. But absolute value of water runoff per one storm decreased in chronological order.

The reinforced earth method is financially viable. Furthermore, it overcomes environmental limitations and is therefore employed in retaining walls, slopes, foundations, roads, embankments, and other structures. However, in some cases, reinforced retaining walls are not strong enough in the curved sections and can collapse. Such mishaps are believed to occur because of an unsatisfactory analysis of the curved sections of a reinforced retaining wall. Accordingly, with the aim of investigating the workability and structural safety of curved sections of various types, this study investigates the differences in the estimated horizontal displacements of curved sections of various types and subsequently uses this information to study and analyze preliminary data so that appropriate measures can be taken to resolve alignment issues. The results of an experiment reveal that when a load is applied to curved sections of both concave and convex types, the largest horizontal displacement occurs at the center of the section. In the concave form, the earth pressure force is directed inward, whereas in the convex form, this force is directed outward. As a result, the horizontal displacement in convex forms is larger than that in concave forms. Convex reinforced earth structures are subjected to earth pressures as well as lateral earth pressure, therefore horizontal displacements in convex curved sections is larger than that of concave curved sections.

중소규모 하천에서 많이 설치되어 있는 경사형보를 대상으로 하류부 세굴에 대한 수리모형실험과 수치모의를 통하여 경사형보 하류부 세굴특성과 세굴영향인자들에 대한 민감도 분석을 실시하였다. 수리모형실험은 폭 0.8m, 길이 20m의 가변경사 직선 개수로에서 1 : 2(H/L)경사를 가지는 경사형보의 높이, 월류수심, 하류부 수심 변화에 따른 최대 세굴심과 세굴길이의 변화를 관측하였고, 수치모의는 유사이동 모의가 가능한 3차원 수치모형인 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 경사형 보의 경사 변화에 따른 하류부 세굴특성을 모의하였다. 수리모형실험 결과 최대 세굴심 및 세굴길이에 가장 영향을 크게 미치는 인자는 월류고이며, 하류부 수심은 최대 세굴심과 세굴길이의 감소효과 뿐만 아니라 세굴공의 형상에도 영향을 미쳤다. 낙하류의 유입 각도가 예연보에 비하여 작은 경사보는 예연보에 비하여 수평방향 유속이 상대적으로 증가하여 세굴길이가 증가하였으며 이로 인하여 세굴공 하류부 천이영역의 사면경사가 상대적으로 완만하게 형성되었다. 세굴공의 상류부에 재순환 영역이 발생되어 천이영역에서 이송되는 유사의 최대세굴심 발생 위치에 퇴적되는 현상을 방해하며 세굴공의 모양은 완전히 발달된 이중(double) 세굴공을 생성하였으며, 특히 낙하류의 유입각도와 하류부 수위의 영향으로 하류수심($h_t$)과 낙차고(H)의 비($h_t/H$)가 1.0 미만인 경우에 이중(double) 세굴공이 발생하였다. 경사형보의 경사각 영향에 따른 하류부 세굴 영향은 3차원 수치모형을 이용하여 모의하였으며, 경사각을 1V/2H, 1V/3H, 1V/4H로 변화시키며 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모의 결과 경사각이 증가할수록 최대 세굴심은 증가하는 경향을 보이고 그에 따른 증가율은 감소하였다. 보 높이, 월류고, 하류부 수심, 경사각 변화에 따른 세굴심의 변화는 상대민감도 방법을 이용하여 비교하였으며 주요 영향인자에 대한 민감도비는 월류고가 보 하류부 세굴에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고, 경사각, 보 높이, 하류부 수심 순이다. 특히 보 하류부의 수심은 음의 민감도를 보이며, 이는 보 하류부 수심이 증가할수록 세굴심이 감소하는 것을 의미한다. 추후 보완 실험 및 수치모의를 추가 활용한다면, 경사형보 하류부 물받이 및 하상보호공 설계를 위한 정량적인 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The levee protect lifes, houses, and properties by blocking overflow of river. The revetment is forced to be covered on the slope of levee in order to prevent erosion. The stability of revetment is very important enough to directly connected to the stability of levee. In this study, the weak points of revetment on meandering channel were found by movable revetment experiment and the velocity and the water surface elevation (WSE) were measured at main points. The 3-D numerical simulations were performed under same conditions with experiment. And unclear flow characteristics by the limit of measuring instruments were analyzed through numerical simulation. Consequently, the section of large wall shear stress and the failure section are almost the same. Despite of small wall shear stress, the revetments located at right bank were carried away because of circulation zone due to secondary flow by meandering. With existing riprap design formula, the sizes of riprap determined using maximum local velocity were 1.5~4.7 times greater than them using mean velocity. As a result of this study, it is necessary to calculate the size of riprap in other ways for meandering and straight channel. At a later study, if the weighted value considered the radius of curvature and shape of hydraulic structure is applied to riprap design formula, it is expected that the size of revetment was evaluated rationally and accurately.
