자연하천은 일반적으로 만곡수로나 사행수로 형태를 보이고 있으며, 직선수로에서와 달리 원심력에 기인한 이차류 영향을 받게 된다. 이차류에 의해서 수면에서는 만곡부 바깥쪽으로, 하상에서는 만곡부 안쪽으로의 흐름특성을 보이게 된다. 만곡부 안쪽으로 가해지는 하상 전단응력에 기인하여 하상에서의 입자가 만곡부 안쪽으로 이송되며, 결과적으로 만곡부 안쪽에는 점사주가, 바깥쪽에는 소(pool)가 생성된다. 또한 지형경사의 생성으로 입자에 가해지는 중력효과도 변화된다. 따라서 이와 같은 자연하천의 흐름과 하상변동을 수치모의 하기 위해서는 만곡부 이차류 특성을 고려한 모형이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수심 적분된 흐름방정식과 하상토 보존방정식 (Exner equation)을 이용한 하상변동을 위한 비연계 수치모형을 위해서 하상토 보존방정식의 유한요소 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 하상토 보존방정식은 흐름 특성에 따른 평형 유사량의 공간변화율을 이용하여 일정 기간 동안의 하상 변화량을 계산한다. 이 때 이차류에 의한 하상 전단응력의 편각 및 지형경사 변화에 따른 실제 입자의 이송방향을 보정하여 평형 유사량이 계산된다. 이러한 보정식을 적용시키기 위해서는 유속성분의 공간변화량 및 지형경사의 공간성분이 필요하다. 유한요소법은 연속성 변수를 이산화시켜 근사해를 구하는 수치기법의 일종이기 때문에, 요소망이 불규칙적으로 구성되었을 경우 임의의 절점에서 연속성을 지닌 변수의 공간변화율을 계산하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 평형 유사량 계산 시에 절점이 아닌 요소 내부에서 평형 유사량을 계산하는, 하상토 보존방정식의 새로운 유한요소 알고리즘을 개발하고, 새로운 알고리즘을 적용시킨 수치모형의 검증을 행하였다. 경계조건 알고리즘의 검증으로 위해서 Soni 등 (1980)이 행한 상류 유입 유사량에 따른 하상변동을 수치 모의하고 실험치와 비교하였으며, Sutmuller와 Glerum (1980)이 수행한 만곡수로에서의 하상변동을 모의하고 실험과 비교하였다. 새로운 알고리즘을 적용시킨 하상토 보존방정식의 유한요소 수치모형의 결과는 매우 안정적이며, 실험과 매우 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 수치모델은 현재 균일한 입자의 하상토만을 고려하므로, 입자분급이나 하상 장갑화 현상 등은 무시한다.

This study performed the impact of ecological waterway on fish community in a reach of the Dal River, Korea. Fish monitoring revealed that 9 fish species are dominant, namely Zacco platypus, Coreoleuciscus splendidus, Zacco koreanus, Pungtungia herzi, Acheilognathus yamatsutae, Rhinogobius brunneus, Tanakia signifer, Gobiobotia macrocephala, and Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpus, and account for 95% of the total fish community. The River2D model was used for the computation of the flow and the HSI model for the habitat simulation. The restoration of the waterway performed through the small dam removal, the formation of the pool-riffle structure, and the change of the bed elevation and width. Simulation results indicated that the restoration of the ecological waterway effects significantly increased by about 16% for the WUA (Weighted Usable Area) of the total fish community in optimal ecological flow conditions ($Q=7.0m^3/s$). The restoration of the ecological waterway is more advantageous to fish community.

When the hydraulic structures, such as bridge and weir, are consecutively installed to a short section of a river with complicated cross section, analyzing the flow characteristics and the riverbed change modality of the river is very important. In the 250 m section of the Taehwa river near the Samho-bridge, which passes through Ulsan city, three bridges has been installed, and the tributary water is flowing into both up and downstream of the section. Due to these factors, when the flood occurs, the cross section of the river changes vastly by the water level change and scour. Even so, due to the fact that the Samho-bridge divides the section into two parts, the national river and the regional river, each part is being analyzed separately by the onedimensional model. In this study, the flow characteristics due to the bridge concentration and the tributary water inflow were jointly analyzed for both up and downstream by using the one-dimensional HEC-RAS model and the two-dimensional SMS model, such as RMA2. The riverbed change modality of the section was also investigated by using the SED2D model. The results showed that the water level difference between the HEC-RAS and RMA2 was 0.87 m when applied to the three consecutive bridges. The riverbed change simulation using SED2D showed that the maximum scour was 0.231 m and it occurred at the Samho-bridge, which located in the middle and has short pier distance. In conclusion, when planning the river maintenance for the regions with concentrated bridges or the sections with severe changes in cross-section and flow, estimating the flood elevation by two-dimensional model and establishing countermeasures for the scouring of the bridge are required. In addition, an integrated analysis on both the national river and the regional river is necessary.

Near sea trawlers of Korea sometimes catch pelagic fishes like file fish by using midwater trawl gear even though usually catch bottom fish. It is reasonable to use the specific otter board as well as specific net in bottom trawling and in midwater trawling respectively. But, the trawlers are so small ranging 100 to 120GT, 700 to 100ps that it is very complicated to use different otter board for bottom trawling and for midwater trawling. The otter board for bottom trawling. is also used for the midwater trawling without any change even though the net is changed into the specific one. Although the otter board in the midwater trawling should be lighter than that for bottom trawling, to use otter board for bottom trawling directly for the midwater trawling without any change makes the net easily touch the sea bed and also make the horizontal opening of the otter boards be limited owing to the length of warp in the southern sea of Korea, main fishing ground of midwater trawling, which is 100m or so in depth. That is why the otter board for the midwater trawling should be made lighter than that in the bottom trawling, even if temporary. The authors carried out an experiment to achieve this purpose by attaching a large styropol float on the top of the otter board. In this experiment, underwater weight of the otter board was 630kg and buoyancy of the float was 510kg. To determine the depth and horizontal opening of the otter board, two fish finder was used. A transmitter of 50KHz fish finder was set downward through the shoe plate of otter board to determine the elevation of otter board from the sea bed, and a transmitter of 200KHz fish finder was set sideways on the starboard otter board to be able to detect the distance between otter boards. The obtained results can be summarized as follows: 1. The actual towing speed in the experiment varied 1.1 to 1.8 m/sec. 2. The depth of otter board was within 41 to 25m with float on the top and 45 to 26m without float in case of the warp length 100m, whereas the depth 68-44m with float and 74-46m without float in case of the warp length 150m. This fact means that the depth with float was 9-4% shallower than that without float. 3. The horizontal opening between otter boards was within 34-41m with float and 30-38m without float in case of the warp length 100m, whereas the opening was 44-50m with float and 37-46m without float in case of the warp length 150m. This fact means the opening with float was 10% greater than that without float in case of the warp length 100m, and 15% greater in case of the warp length 150m. 4. The horizontal opening between wing tips by using the otter board with float was 1m greater than by without float in case of the warp length 100m, whereas the opening by with float was 2m greater than by without float in case of warp length 150m. From this fact, it can be estimated that the effective opening area of the net mouth by using the otter board with float could be made 10% greater than by without float in case of warp length 100m, whereas the area with float 20% greater than by without float in case of warp length 150m.

Sediment exchange in river has been affected by artificial changes such as dredging and abnormal climate changes like intense rainfall. Over last decades in Korea, there were many constructions, restoration or rehabilitation in rivers. Therefore, deposition and erosion become more actively occurred than before, which may threaten the river safety such as flood defense. For safety's sake, the dredging of river bed, which is considered as the most typical measure, has been increased to extend hydraulic conveyance compared with previous conditions. However, since it might change the sediment mechanism, there would be another risk at which unexpected side effects such as headward erosion could be occurred. Particularly, sedimentation at abrupt expansion region is able to lead to hydraulic characteristics like water elevation in the upstream region in the beginning of dredging, which, however, has been barely studied in this field. Therefore in this study, the relationship between sediment mechanism at dredging section and hydraulic characteristics in upstream region were presented through numerical simulations in the idealized abruptly widen channel using Delft3D. The ideal channel of 2,000 m length with each side angle of 45 degrees at abruptly widen expansion region was employed to consider the sediment angle of repose. The sensitivity analysis was performed on the dimensionless factors consisted of upstream and downstream depths($h_u$, $h_d$), width($w_u$, $w_d$), water level(H), flow rate(Q) and discharge of sediment($Q_s$). And the sedimentation amount at dredging and the upstream hydraulic characteristics were investigated through that analysis. It showed that $h_d/h_u$, $H/h_u$ and $w_d/w_u$ were more influential in sequence of effect on sedimentation amount, while $h_d/h_u$, $w_d/w_u$ and $H/h_u$ on upstream region. It means that $h_d/h_u$ was revealed as the most significant factors on sedimentation, also it would most highly affect the rising of water level upstream.
