The purpose of this study is to quantitatively estimate the settling and erosional properties for cohesive sediments in Shihwa lake. Settling tests are conducted by multi-depth method using a specially designed 1.8 m tall settling column, and erosion tests are conducted with annular flume under the uniform bed condition. As result of settling tests, it is confirmed that the settling velocity of the cohesive sediments has the range of $0.002 for suspended sediments concentration of 0.1$0.19{\sim}0.55N/m^{2}$ for bed shear stress of $1.14{\sim}1.32g/cm^{3}$, and the erosion rate coefficient decreases with logarithmic function in a range of $18.4{\sim}3.9mg/cm^{2}{\cdot}hr$ with increase of bed shear stress.

한강 하구 점착성 퇴적물의 침강속도를 정량적으로 산정하고, 산정된 침강속도의 계절적 변화 해석을 목적으로 침강수주를 이용한 침강 실험이 수행되었다. 침강실험은 1개 정점에서 3계절에 채취된 퇴적물 표본 시료에 대해 계절별로 $5{\sim}6$회씩 총 16회의 실험이 수행되었으며, 또한 퇴적물 자체의 물리 화학적 특성 및 해수 특성에 따른 침강속도의 정성적 변화 특성을 파악하기 위하여 한강 하구 점착성 퇴적물에 대한 물리 화학적 특성 및 해수 특성에 대한 분석이 수행되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 도출되는 한강 하구 점착성 퇴적물 침강속도의 정량적 결과는 향후 한강 하구에 대한 체계적 관리 및 기능 회복을 위한 기술 개발시에 크게 활용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 저면의 침식과 퇴적에 따른 하상변동 해석, 수질 및 퇴적물 오염 절감을 위한 대책 방안 수립 등 다양한 목적으로 크게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Suspended fine mineral particles are deposited at the areas with low flow velocity and low transportation capacity in rivers, reservoirs and lakes. It can be contaminated by heavy metals. Examples of problem fields art dredging of sediment, water pollutants, and maintenance of navigation channels and construction works. To deal with the settling problems it is necessary to understand tile physico-chemical characteristics of cohesive sediment under varying density of particle and ion addition(NaOH, HCl, NaCl), which is dissolved in river, because fine-grained cohesive sediment can lead to flocculation with the physico-chemical influences and takes different characteristics. Experiments with fresh and saline water are followed with fine-grained sediments(alumina and quartz) in settling columns. Settling velocity of suspended fine particles in still water was measured with a pressure sensor(maximum 10 mbar). Until the initial concentration of 20,000 mg/1 of alumina and quartz the settling velocity was on the increase. Above this initial concentration was it on the decrease. In an acid condition, which causes strong flocculation, average settling velocity of quartz powder was high. In an alkaline water low average settling velocity of it was observed. However, alumina behaved exactly contrarily.
