Sedimentation changes related with bottom shear stress attenuation at JangHang channel in the Keum River Estuary, where several huge coastal constructions including an estuarine dam have been conducted for last 2 decades, were evaluated for 7 cases to figure out passage hindrance through the channel by a hydrodynamic model using hind-casting technique from 1988 to 2000 at every 2 years interval. Due to the construction of Keum River Estuary Dam, the maximum bottom shear stress rapidly lessened to $0.2-0.6N/m^2$ compared to$1-2N/m^2$ in natural status. Especially it marks below the critical shear stress of $0.4N/m^2$ resulting in severe siltation in the channel just after the closing of dam gates in 1994. It is concluded that the dam may block the tidal energy propagation to upstream and directly results in sedimentation environment in front of dam site. It is also revealed that at least 20% of passage hindrance of small fishing boats through the channel could be counted due to sedimentation by analysis of predicted mean spring tides.

In order to find out hydrodynamic changes due to huge complex constructions in the Keum River Estuary, two-dimensional finite element model is applied. Model results show that gate closing of the estuary dam yields tide amplifications at Kunsan Inner Port to 17 cm and 6 cm of M$_2$ and S$_2$, while 5 cm and 3 cm of amplification at Kunsan Outer Port. Tidal currents in the main channel due to stepwise flow-guide dikes construction have been simulated and show that dynamic equilibrium bottom shear stress is 0.4 N/m$\^$2/ on this Keum River Estuary. Sedimentation rates R have correlation with maximum bottom shear stress (equation omitted), R=-0.37-0.40 ln $\tau$.

최근 선박의 연료유 절감 및 경제운항에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 조선소를 중심으로 운항정보의 활용과 관련된 다수의 프로젝트가 진행되고 있으며 선박 설계, 기상예보 등을 통합한 다양한 시스템이 개발되는 등 선박의 최적운항지원 솔루션 시장이 빠르게 성장하고 있다. 하지만 현재 시장을 주도하고 있는 솔루션들은 설계정보를 중심으로 개발되어 선박을 운영하는 해운선사에서 요구하고 있는 성능기준을 만족하지 못하는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 운영단계에서 축적되는 운항데이터와 해운선사의 경험과 노하우에 대한 정보가 반영된 경제운항 알고리즘을 개발하기 위한 현황 분석을 수행하였다.

기존 가상현실(Virtual reality) 콘텐츠는 제작인 완료된 상태로 제공되기 때문에 법 개정 및 교육 커리큘럼 변화에 능동적으로 대응하지 못한다. 따라서 VR 콘텐츠 제작시 편집이 가능한 툴과 편집된 VR 콘텐츠가 바로 실행되는 편집 도구를 구현한다면 훈련 내역의 변경이 지속적으로 발생되는 VR 콘텐츠에 대안책이 될 것이다. 따라서 이를 해결하기 위해 VR 콘텐츠의 주요 생성 및 생성된 시나리오의 세부 씬(Scene) 구성을 사용자가 직접 생성하는 편집 도구를 구현하고 VR 장치가 없는 운용 환경에서도 실행이 가능 하도록 Web 기반의 편집 도구를 개발하여 VR 콘텐츠의 편집 및 실행 시 동시처리가 가능하도록 편집 도구를 개발하였다.

환형수조는 점착성 퇴적물의 침/퇴적실험을 위한 실험장치로서, 수조내부의 수면과 접하여 회전하는 상부링(top ring)의 마찰력에 의해 흐름이 생성되며, 시간의 제약없이 흐름조건을 동일하게 만들 수 있다는 큰 장점을 갖는다. 그러나 환형수조는 원주유속의 속도차이 및 원심력으로 인한 2차 순환류가 형성되어 바닥전단응력이 불균일해지는 단점을 가지고 있으며, 이러한 이유로 인하여 환형수조를 이용한 침/퇴적실험 수행시 수조의 외벽부근에서 더 큰 침식이 발생한다. 따라서, 2차 순환류의 발생을 줄이고 바닥전단응력의 분포를 균등하게 하기 위해 양방향 회전(환형수조의 몸체를 상부링의 회전방향과 반대방향으로 회전)이 가능한 환형수조가 고안되었는데, 이러한 방법으로 2차 순환류의 크기를 저감시키고, 바닥전단응력을 균일하게 만들 수 있다. 한편, 환형수조의 양방향 회전(counter-rotation)은 현장용 환형수조에는 적용될 수 없는 단점을 갖는다. 현장실험에서는 바닥면이 없는 현장용 환형수조를 해저면에 거치시켜 자연상태의 비교란 퇴적물 시료를 저면으로 형성시키는데, 바닥면이 존재하지 않는 환형수조 본체는 회전시킬 수 없으므로 양방향 회전을 통한 2차 순환류의 저감 및 바닥전단응력 균일화의 효과를 기대할 수 없다. 이러한 이유로 환형수조의 양방향 회전은 단지 실내실험용 환형수조에만 적용된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 환형수조 본체를 회전시키지 않고 수조의 측벽과 상부링의 각도 조절을 통해 수조단면의 형상을 변화시켜 2차 순환류를 저감시키고 바닥전단응력을 균등하게 하는 방법에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 이 방법은 본체의 회전이 필요 없으므로 현장용 환형수조에 적용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 실험장치의 구조가 단순해져 실험장치의 제작비가 절감될 수 있다. 또한 원주속도에 수직한 단면에서 속도구배가 감소되어 2차 순환류가 저감됨과 동시에 바닥전단응력이 균등하게 됨으로서 양방향 회전시와 동일한 효과가 얻어질 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

In the past, the predictions of beach processes and harbor sedimentation were mainly relied on the hydraulic model tests and empirical methods. In recent years, however, as computers have come into wide use, more accurate models have gradually been developed and thus replaced those conventional methods. For prediction of topographical change near the coastal area, we need informations of wave and current conditions in the numerical model which should be calculated in advance. Numerical model introduced in this study combines wave refraction-diffraction, breaking, bottom friction, lateral mixing, and critical shear stress and three sub-models for simulating waves, currents, and bottom change were briefly discussed. Simulations of beach processes and harbor sedimentation were also described at the coast neighboring Bangpo Harbor, Anmyundo, Chungnam, where the area has suffered accumulation of drifting sand in a small fishing harbor with a wide tidal range. We also made model test for the new layout of the harbor and planned south breakwater for preventing intrusion of sand. Although the model study gave reasonable description of beach processes and harbor sedimentation mechanism, it is necessary to collect lots of field observation data, including waves, tides and bottom materials, etc. for better prediction.

A two-dimensional nonlinear tidal model of the Asan Bay has been formulated to examine the tide and related hydraulic phenomena. The $M_2$ tidal regime was first computed using the model and the model also was to derive the maximum bed stress and transport potential in the region. Preliminary assessment of relation between sediment transport and the maximum bed stress distribution determined from the model are described.

The flow zone through propeller jets are used in evaluating the environmental and constructional effects of navigation on the waterway. It relies on the characteristics of ships and water depth. A numerical model using the momentum theory of the propeller and Shield's diagram was developed in a restricted waterway. Equations for discharge are presented based on thrust coefficients and propeller speed and are the most accurate means of defining discharge. Approximate methods for discharge are developed based on applied ship's power. Equations for discharge are as a function of applied power, propeller diameter, and ship speed. Water depth of the waterway and draft of the shop are also necessary for the calculation of the grain size of the initial motion. The velocity distribution of discharge from the propeller was simulated by the Gaussian normal distribution function. The shear velocity and shear stress were from the Sternberg's formula. Case studies to show the influence of significant factors on sediment movement induced by the ship's propeller at the channel bottom are presented.

The study examines the shearing and crushing characteristics of land-derived subaqueous granular materials in a gravel-bed river. A series of large-sized ring shear tests were performed to examine the effect of shear time and shear velocity on the shear stress characteristics of aquarium gravels with a 6-mm mean grain size. Three different shear velocities (i.e., 0.01, 0.1, and 1 mm/sec) were applied to measure the shear stress under the drained (long-term shearing) and undrained (short-term shearing) conditions. Different initial shear velocities, i.e., 0.01→0.1→1 mm/sec and 0.1→0.01→1 mm/sec, were considered in this study. The test results show that the grain crushing effect is significant regardless of drainage conditions. The shear stress of coarse-grained materials is influenced by initial shear velocities, regardless of the drainage conditions. In particular, particle breakage increases as grain size increases. The shearing time and initial shear velocity are the primary influencing factors determining the shear stress of gravels. The granular materials may be broken easily into particles through frictional resistance, such as abrasion, interlocking and fracture due to the particle-particle interaction, resulting in the high mobility of granular materials in a subaqueous environment.
