미세-점착성 퇴적물로 구성되는 퇴적저면의 침식특성을 해석하기 위해, 고령토 퇴적저면에 대한 침식실험이 환형수조를 이용하여 수행되었다. 현재, 퇴적저면의 침식특성 연구에 대한 국내사례는 전무한 실정으로, 본 연구는 퇴적저면에 대한 침식실험 방법 및 결과의 타당성 검증을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여, 본 연구에서는 압밀시간 조건에 따라 4가지의 서로 다른 퇴적저면이 조성되었고, 각 저면별로 저면깊이에 따른 저면밀도의 변화가 우선적으로 정밀 측정되었다. 각 퇴적저면별 침식실험으로부터는, 바닥전단응력(${\tau}_b$)의 변화에 따른 저면 침식깊이(즉, 수층 부유사 농도)의 변화 측정을 통하여, 저면깊이에 따른 저면전단강도(즉, 침식한계전단응력, ${\tau}_S$)의 변화 값들이 정량적으로 분석되었으며, 최종적으로 잉여전단응력(${\tau}_b-{\tau}_S$)과 침식률 간의 관계식이 산정되었다. 퇴적저면 침식특성에 관한 과거 해외 연구 결과와의 비교 검토를 통하여, 본 연구에서 사용 혹은 적용된 실험장치, 실험 방법 및 실험결과가 타당성이 있음이 확인되었다.

충적하천의 하상과 제방은 흐름에 의해 쉽게 침식되는 사립자들로 구성되어 있다. 흐름이 더욱 강해지면 커다란 입자들도 움직이게 되고 더욱 커지면 결국 모든 입자들이 움직인다. 이렇게 흐름에 의해 하상과 제방을 구성하는 사립자들이 움직이기 시작하는 상태를 한계운동이라 하며, 이때의 흐름조건을 한계조건이라 한다. 한계조건은 이동상 수리학의 시작으로, 이때부터 흐름은 물과 유사의 혼합이라는 이상류가 되어 순수한 물의 흐름보다 더 복잡하게 된다. 개수로는 관수로와 달리 반드시 자유수면이 있으며, 따라서 물과 공기와의 마찰은 상대적으로 매우 작으므로 개수로의 전단응력 분포는 관수로와 달리 근본적으로 비대칭이다. 따라서 전단응력은 수로 바닥이나 측벽에서만 작용하게 된다. 한계조건은 이러한 추상적인 의미에 앞서 바닥이 침식되지 않는 하도나 수로의 설계 등에 기본적인 자료가 된다. 개수로에서 경계면의 전단응력을 힘으로 표시하는 것을 통상 소류력이라 하며, 개수로 경계면에서 전단응력의 분포도; 이른바 단면의 평균 전단응력의 개념을 도입하여 해석하고 설계기준으로 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자연하천과 유사한 조건의 건설기술연구원 하천실험센터의 급경사수로에서 연구를 진행하였으며, 기존 연구를 바탕으로 제작된 소류력 측정장치를 이용하였다. 하천의 설계나 평가에 적용되는 평균 소류력 개념은 복잡한 난류흐름에서 평가지표로써 대표하기 힘들기 때문에 유사 하천환경의 바닥에서 발생하는 소류력을 직접 측정하고자 연구를 진행하였고, 연구결과를 기존의 소류력 산정방법과 비교하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 장치는 실규모 실험을 위해 제작되었으며, 실규모 적용성 검토를 위해 실험실에서 충분한 검증실험을 거친 후 실규모 실험에 적용하였다.

The purpose of this study is to quantitatively estimate the erosional properties for cohesive sediment from Saemankeum artificial lake. A series of erosion tests were conducted with Chonbuk annular flume, which is the first one constructed in this country and verified with validities. Each erosion tests were conducted under a uniform bed condition but a different bed density respectively, and its critical shear stress for erosion(${\tau}_{ce}$) as well as the erosion rate coefficient (${\varepsilon}_M$) were determined quantitatively. Since the erosional properties of the cohesive sediments vary largely depending in the physico-chemical properties, such properties of Saemankeum sediments were also estimated and their effects on the erosional properties were analyzed. For Saemankeum sediments, it can be seen that ${\tau}_{ce}$ increases from $0.26N/m^2$ to $0.52N/m^2$ and ${\varepsilon}_M$ decreases exponentially from $14.28mg/cm^2\;hr$ to $6.02mg/cm^2\;hr$, as the bed density varies from $1.17g/cm^3$ to $1.34g/cm^3$. The erosional parameters of Saemankeum sediments are found to be remarkably different in quantity as compared with those for cohesive sediments from other sites. Particularly, ${\tau}_{ce}$ for Saemankeum sediments is known to be larger than that of Kunsan sediments but similar with that of Shihwa sediments, while ${\varepsilon}_M$ for Saemankeum sediments is shown to be smaller than that for Kunsan sediments.

This paper was considered on the applicability of EFDC KUNSAN_SEDTRAN MODEL (2012) to calculate Gunsan Port sediment deposition height efficiently and to use for grasping its aspects quantitatively and providing its prevention measures reasonably based on well-known 3-dimensional EFDC sediment transport module. This model was calibrated and verified with various measured field data of A Report of Hydrological Variation on Kum River Estuary (2004). Due to the model calibration and relevant literature investigation for cohesive sediment parameters, settling velocity (WS), critical deposition stress (TD), reference surface erosion rate (RSE), critical erosion stress (TE) were identified as 2.2E-04m/s, 0.20 $N/m^2$, 0.003 $g/s{\cdot}m^2$, 0.40 $N/m^2$ respectivly on this model. In order to examine the applicability and precision of the model computation, the calculated model data of sediment deposition height at 13 stations for 71 days and suspended-sediment concentration at 2 stations, inner port and outer port for 15 days were compared and analyzed with the measured field data. As a result, the model applicability for sediment deposition height simulation was evaluated as NSE coefficient 0.86 and the precision for suspended-sediment concentration computation was evaluated as time averaged relative error (RE) 23%.

An annular flume has been constructed in order to estimate the erosion rate of fine cohesive sediments. Under an uniform bed condition, some erosion tests for Kaolinite sediments have been conducted to examine the performance of the flume and to check the validity of experimental method and results. In this study, the critical shear stress for erosion and the erosion rate coefficient are estimated and compared with the existing measurements. It is concluded that the performance of the annular flume is good enough to conduct erosion tests and the experimental method and results are valid.

The purpose of this study is to quantify the erosion parameters of cohesive sediments in Keum Estuary. This study also involves the examinations on the local/seasonal variation of them in Keum Estuary and on their spatial variation comparing with those of other sites. As erosional properties of cohesive sediments are in general influenced largely by the physico-chemical properties of cohesive sediments themselves, this study also involves the qualitative analyses on the impact by the physico-chemical properties. Erosion tests have been performed under the uniform bed condition using the Chonbuk annular flume and total 16 tests have been carried out with various bed densities and bottom shear stresses. Experimental results show that the critical shear stress for erosion varies in the range of $0.19{\sim}0.41N/m^2$ and the coefficient of erosion rate varies in the range of $54.26{\sim}7.70mg/cm^2{\cdot}hr$, over the corresponding bulk-density range of $1.14{\sim}1.38g/cm^3$. While erosion parameters estimated for Keum estuary sediments are found to be remarkably different in quantity compared with those for cohesive sediments from other sites, their local/seasonal variabilities within Keum Estuary are found to be insignificant.

Recently, in Korea, problems related with unstability of slope or sinkhole in urban area due to erosion of compacted granite soil which was used as a backfill or embankment material have been treated as important issues. Small hole might develop inside of backfill area due to erosion of not only weathered granite soil but also clay, silt, fine sand size particles when underground water flows. Once erosion starts in a soil mass, erosion rate increases gradually to cause rapid destruction. In this study, a rotating cylinder test (RCT) was performed to evaluate the hydraulic resistance characteristics of compacted weathered granite soil under various relative densities and preconsolidation pressures. Meanwhile, an image analysis method was introduced to analyze radius of irregularly eroded sample. It was found that image analysis is an effective means of minimizing the error in calculating a critical shear stress and threshold shear stress on the irregularly eroded sample. Furthermore, in general, hydraulic resistance capacity increases with the increase of relative density and preconsolidation pressure.

It is a recent worldwide trend that erosion characteristics of soil, the resistance factor against scour, are quantified and considered in the estimation of scour depths in fine-grained soils. As part of the efforts, local erosion characteristics on fine-grained soils of the West Coast area are analyzed through scour rate experiments, where a lot of sea-crossing long-span bridges are planned and being constructed in recent years. Four sites including Incheon Bridge, Choji Bridge, Hwankyung Bridge, and Janghang area are finally selected for this study and the scour rate tests are performed using 34 undisturbed soil samples from the sites. The critical shear stresses which represent erodibility of the soil tend to be proportional to the undrained shear strength values. The relative ability of cohesive fine-grained soils to resist erosion is assumed to be higher than that of noncohesive soils. Quantified local erosion characteristics of fine-grained soils in the West Coast area are presented in forms of charts showing relationships between scour rates and shear stresses, and suggested as basic data for the estimation of scour depths and design of bridge foundations in the West Coast area.

The purpose of this study is to quantitatively estimate the erosional properties for cohesive sediments on Keum Estuary. Then the spatial variation was evaluated, through analyzing and comparing the seasonal variation of the erosional properties in Keum Estuary with that of the erosional properties in the other sites. As erosional properties of cohesive sediments are also influenced largely by basic physico-chemical property of cohesive sediments themselves, the impact that the basic physico-chemical property has on the erosional properties is analyzed in this study. Erosional tests are performed under the condition of uniform beds. Total 8 times of tests using an annular flume are also conducted in a location, low times respectively by seasons: the fall, winter. Experimental results of erosional tests show that the critical shear stress for erosion varies in the range of $0.12{\sim}0.36N/m^2$ and the coefficient of erosion rate varies in the range of $120.91{\sim}6.72mg/cm^2{\cdot}hr$, over the corresponding bulk-density range $1.15{\sim}1.34g/cm^3$. Although the calculated parameters of erosional properties are remarkably different in quantity compared with those of other cohesive sediments(lake Okeechobee) and Kaolinite, their seasonal variabilities within Keum Estuary appear to be insignificant.
