In the present work, the interaction analysis between tsunami bore and onshore bridge is approached by a numerical method, where the tsunami bore is generated by difference of upstream side and downstream side water levels. Numerical simulation in this paper was carried out by TWOPM-3D(three-dimensional one-field model for immiscible two-phase flows), which is based on Navier-Stokes solver. In order to verify the applicability of force acting on an onshore bridge, numerical results and experimental results were compared and analyzed. From this, we discussed the characteristics of horizontal force and vertical force(uplift force and downward force) changes including water level and velocity change due to the tsunami bore strength, water depth, onshore bridge form and number of girder. Furthermore, It was revealed that the entrained air in the fluid flow highly affected the vertical force.

The energy absorption efficiency of a wave power generation system is calculated as the ratio of the wave power to the power of the system. Because absorption efficiency depends on the dynamic behavior of the wave power generation system, a dynamic analysis of the wave power generation system is required to estimate the energy absorption efficiency of the system. In this study, a dynamic analysis of the wave power generation system under wave loads is performed to estimate the energy absorption efficiency. RecurDyn is employed to carry out the dynamic analysis of the system, and the Morison equation is used for the wave load model. According to the results, the lower the wave height and the shorter the period, the higher is the absorption efficiency of the system.

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 investigates tsunami force acting on a group of onshore structures numerically by using three-dimensional one-field model for immiscible multi-phase flows, which is based on Navier-Stokes solver. In particular, we studied on the characteristics of tsunami with respect to the arrangement of onshore structures and the distance from seawall trough numerical experiments. For validation of the numerical method used in this study to calculate tsunami force, numerical results for tsunami force on the structures in coastal area are compared with available experimental data. Furthermore, a detail study on the efficiency of the numerical method is performed for the estimation of tsunami force based on the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic methods in which the numerical results are used. The obtained results are compared to the previous experimental one and design criteria. Considering both experimental results and numerical analysis results, semi-empirical formula by regression analysis is proposed. As a result, it was confirmed that the numerical analysis is effective to estimate on tsunami force acting on onshore structures.

해양구조물의 연직 원형파일에 작용하는 파력은 주로 항력과 관성력의 합으로 표시되는 Morison 식을 이용하여 결정하여 왔다. 그러나 Morison 식은 대칭형상을 유지하며 비교적 완만히 변화하는 파에 대해서 적용이 가능하다. 구조물 부재에 쇄파가 작용할 경우, 쇄파파력은 항력과 관성력에 추가하여 강한 충격쇄파력을 포함하게 된다. 본 연구는 임의 이차원 경사해빈에서 경계요소법을 적용하여 쇄파 내부점들의 수립자 속도 및 가속도를 계산하고, 이들을 이용하여 쇄파에 의한 쇄파파력을 계산하기 위한 모델기법을 수립한다.(중략)

To solve the interaction of incident monochromatic waves with a bottom-fixed vertical circular cylinder, a numerical analysis by boundary element method is developed using three-dimensional linear potential theory. A numerical analysis by boundary element method is based on Green's theorem and introduce to an integral equation for the fluid velocity potential around the vertical circular cylinder. These numerical results are compared with those of ManCamy and Fuchs(1954) and Williams and Mansour(2002), and it has shown good relationship with their results. This numerical analysis developed by boundary element method will be applied for various offshore structures to be constructed in coastal zones in the future.

This study aims to review a topology optimization based on finite element analysis (FEA) for conceptual design of platform in the 10MW class floating type wave-wind hybrid power generation system (WHPGS). Two topology optimization theories, density method (DM) and homogenization design method (HDM) were used to check which one is more effective for a simplified structural design problem prior to the topology optimization of platform of WHPGS. From the results of the simplified design problem, the HDM was applied to the topology optimization of platform of WHPGS. For the conceptual platform design of WHPGS, FEA model was created and then the structural analysis was performed considering offshore environmental loads at installation site. Hydrodynamics analysis was carried out to calculate pressure on platform and tension forces in mooring lines induced from the offshore environmental loads such as design wave and current. Loading conditions for the structural analysis included the analysis results from the hydrodynamic analysis and the weights of WHPGS. Boundary condition was realized using inertia relief method. The topology optimization of WHPGS platform was performed using the HDM, and then the conceptual arrangement of main structural members was suggested. From the results, it was confirmed that the topology optimization might be a useful tool to design the conceptual arrangement of main structural members for a newly developed offshore structure such as the floating type WHPGS.

The actual wave is multi-direction irregular wave. In the case of a long structure, a reduction effect of the wave occurs. In this study, in order to grasp the extent to which these influences contribute to the failure probability and compare the existing modular breakwaters to the stability, we used existing modular breakwaters and long caisson breakwaters using wave force reduction parameter to analysis the reliability. As a result, the reliability index of the long caisson breakwater was higher than that of the existing modular caisson breakwater, and it was confirmed that the significant wave height of the design variables had the highest influence. In addition, the reliability analysis was performed according to the change of the mean value of the variables used in the calculation of the wave force reduction parameter. It is confirmed that the relationship between each variable value and the wave force reduction parameter appears in the analysis results.

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.
