This study investigates the characteristics of stem waves along a vertical structure under overtopping conditions through laboratory experiments in a wave basin. The uni-directional random waves with Bretschneider-Mitsuyasu frequency spectrum as incident waves were used. This study is focused on the reduction of wave height due to the variation of relative freeboard height (R) and the results for wave overtopping conditions are compared with those for non-overtopping conditions. Though the relative wave height along a vertical structure decreases with the decrease of relative freeboard, the variation of stem width is not significant. For the relative freeboard is greater than 1, the reduction effect of stem wave height by overtopping can be ignored in this experiments. The reduction effect of wave height along the structure for R =0.5 is about 10% comparing with R =1.5.

최근 지역어민 또는 관광객들이 친수공간으로 이용할 수 있는 경사식 상부공의 시공이 많아지고 있다. 경사식 상부공은 수평파력을 저감하는 동시에 사면벽에 작용하는 파력을 제체의 안정에 이용할 수 있다. 그러나 직립식 상부공과 비교하여 전달파고가 커지는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 상부공에 슬릿을 주어 슬릿 유무에 따른 파력 감소에 대한 수치모의를 실시하였다. 수치모의에는 범용성이 높은 단면 2차원 해석모델인 수치파동수로(CADMAS-SURF)를 사용하였고, 입사파랑으로는 규칙파를 조파하였으며, 전면불투과벽, 슬릿부, 유수실 바닥, 유수실 후벽에서 파력을 측정하였다. 수치모의 결과 상부공에 슬릿이 있는 경우 뚜렷한 파력 감소 효과를 보였으며, 파력감소 효과로 인하여 케이슨의 중량을 줄일 수 있어 공사비 절감 효과도 기대할 수 있었다.

2중곡면 반파공의 월파 특성을 검토하기 위하여 입사파고 및 주기가 각각 다른 불규칙파를 대상으로 수리실험을 실시하였으며, 2중곡면 반파공과 직립형 구조물에 대해 동일한 조건으로 실험하여 이를 명확히 하였다. 특히 2중곡면 상부의 곡률반경에 따라 외해측으로 되돌리는 파랑의 비말효과에서 큰 차이가 있을 것에 착안하여 상부곡면부의 곡률반경이 증가한 정상 2중곡면 반파공(FSW)과 상부곡면부의 곡률반경이 감소한 역 2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)에 대해 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고 2중곡면 원호 크기의 비 B/D=0, 20%, 40%, 60% 및 80%인 경우에 대해서도 월파특성을 비교 검토하여 다음과 같은 결론를 얻었다. 1. 2중곡면 원호 크기의 비 B/D가 증가할수록 월파저지 효과가 개선됨을 확인 하였으며 최대 B/D가 0.8인 경우 0.2에 비해 50% 이상 월파유량이 감소하여 B/D의 변동에 따른 월파저지특성을 확인하였다. 2. 역2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)의 실험결과 기존 정상2중곡면 반파공(FSW)에 비하여 20%이상 월파량이 감소하고 있음을 알 수 있었으며 이는 2중곡면 상부측의 곡률 반경이 증가함에 따른 기하학적 특성에 의해 외해측으로의 되돌림 파랑(수괴)이 증가한 것으로 판단된다. 3. 동일한 마루높이에 대해 직립형 호안에 의한 월파량 비교결과 역 2중곡면 반파공(IFSW)의 경우 최대 80%이상의 월파량 저감 효과가 나타나는 것으로 검토되었다. 4. 월파저지의 측면에서 2중 곡면공에 비해 역2중 곡면공이 우수한 것으로 예측되었으나 2중곡면 반파공의 소파원리가 반파공의 원호내에서 쇄파를 야기하여 파에너지를 소멸하는 것이므로 쇄파를 유도하는 과정에서 충격쇄파압의 발생이 예측되는 바 이에 대한 계속적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

The large uprush could be occurred when the waves hit the coastal structure and this uprush by wave could make the overtopping. The downfall of the wave overtopping water over the structure brought about the vertical impact loads. The vertical impact loads should be evaluated in order to design the pavement behind the crown wall however these loads were still unclear. In this study, the hydraulic model tests for the downfall impact loads by wave overtopping were performed and the various conditions were applied to the tests. The effect of the incident wave condition, the freeboard, the armour crest height and the height of the parapet were investigated. The test results showed that the parapet on the crown wall could reduce the wave overtopping however the inclusion of parapet could lead to the increased downfall wave pressures behind the crown wall. The empirical formulae were proposed for evaluating the maximum downfall pressures behind the crown wall of rubble mound structure.

Rising sea levels along the coast from global warming causes the increase of wave energy along the coast. This rise in sea levels results in relatively deep water levels, which would incur the loss of sand that had not occurred in the past from erosion in coastal areas. Generally, it has been challenging to protect against coastal erosion, and the slope, cross-sectional shape, and materials are selected for the site conditions depending on the change in external forces. However, the application of counter measures based on insufficient understanding of the phenomenon is causing various damage, indicating the need for technological development and converging technologies to improve credibility. In this study, we developed eco-friendly permeable biopolymer concrete blocks to control the coastal erosion by using the Bio-Coast, an effective porous structure that mitigates the destructive erosion caused by the rising sea levels. The hexagonal design of Bio-Coast was derived from the honeycomb, columnar joints, and clover, which are durable and stable structures in nature, and the design was changed to apply bumps on the Bio-Coast filling in the form of a clover to reduce wave overtopping and run-up. Applying the field condition of beaches on the east coast of Korea, the block weight and size were decided and the prototype blocks were manufactured and are ready for field placement. In particular, it is intended to protect coastal areas from destructive erosion by natural and artificial external forces, and to extend the design to river,s lakes, and natural walking trails, to improve the efficiency of quality control and process control through the use of blocks.

In recent years, various types of coastal protection scheme have been studied around the coastal region. Among them, so-called zonal protection systems are being watched with interest from various points of view. In this paper, wave overtopping rate from overflowing the vertical seawall is investigated by conducting two dimensional model on the horizontal bed experiment. Hereafter this system is referred to as a artificial reef system. One is the foundation to control wave height near the surfzone and the other is function to prevent coastal disaster by suppressing net overtopping rate. The main results obtained in this study are summarized as follows. 1) Wave attenuation taken place on the artificial reef can be predicted numerically by using energy dispersion model due to wave breaking proposed by Battjes. 2) To evaluate the wave overtopping rate from a vertical seadike on various coastal constructions by weir model, a numerical procedure for prediction of overtopping is confirmed.

A wave overtopping rate from a sea dike of various toe depths is formulated based on a weir model in an unidirectional flow. To evaluate the wave overtopping rate from a seadike on an artificial reef by the weir model, a numerical procedure for predicting wave transformations including the effect of forced wave breaking on the reef is constructed. After confirming the applicability of the model by experiments with regular and irregular waves, the effect of artificial reef on wave overtopping is discussed. So-called individual wave analysis method is shown to be applicable to the wave overtopping caused by irregular waves.

In the past, seawall and sea dike very higher than sea-water elevation had been constructed mainly to prevent the wave overtopping volume. However, the coastal zone is recently developed for the multipurpose of not only preventing from the coastal disaster but conserving the coastal environment and utilizing the coastal space. In this sense, this paper deals with the artificial reef being able to reduce the overtopping volume. Relations of the overtopping volume to the breaking wave are briefly reviewed theoretically, and fundamental factor affecting it are also obtained experimentally form the artificial reef with the irregular waves, In addition, the numerical simulation is developed to investigate the effects of spectral band width for the overtopping volume. The most effective artificial reef section to reduce the overtopping volume is proposed.

As commercial and residential areas are actively developed around the coastal area with excellent scenery, installing coastal structures such as seawalls and breakwaters is continuously increasing to secure safe coastal regions. Additionally, the increase in the intensity of natural disasters due to climate change may cause higher incident waves than in the past, which may further aggravate the damage caused by wave overtopping. In this study, compared to the existing vertical seawall, we investigated the effect of wave overtopping reduction of a recurved seawall, which actively reflects the incoming waves, through the hydraulic model test. As a result of the hydraulic model experiment, it was confirmed that there was an effect of up to 92.4% of wave overtopping reduction in average compared to the vertical seawall and structures covered with armor blocks.
