In this study, a new type floating breakwater was proposed to improve the capability of wave attenuation compared with the existing floating breakwater in Wonjun Port, which is located in Masan City, Korea. In order to develop the optimal design, many different configurations considering the shape and location of vertical barrier and horizontal plate were examined based on the shape of existing floating breakwaters in Wonjun and Tongyeong Port. The analytical and numerical results of the new type floating breakwater showed better performance in long-period wave attenuation than the existing floating breakwater in Wonjun. Therefore, the new type floating breakwater can improve harbor tranquility in Wonjun Port.

The plain and simple shape water front structure were designed and installed for wave protection and wave resistance. But the installation of these plain and simple structure cause deficiency of environmental affinity. Also the resonance phenomena from the reflective wave and shipwave of the harbor incident wave caused high tide and wave, consequently maintaining the tranquility of inside harbor, give difficulty for mooring the ship and loading-unloading, increase the possibility of ship collision at the quray wall and landing place To solve these problems, we develop the environmentally friendly wave dissipation block. And installation efficiency, stability of the blocks through experiment of C.E Block Joint.

From the viewpoint of coastal hydrodynamics, one of the most important effects of global warming is a sea-level rise in coastal areas. In the present study, impacts on port facilities against sea-level rise were investigated. The sea-level rise causes the increase of the water depth, and it generates variations on the wave height, buoyancy, tidal system and nearshore current system and so on. The increase of water depth gives rise to the decrease of crown height of the structure and it causes increase of wave overtopping quantity. It may flood the port zone and its facilities, and may decrease harbor tranquility. It also leads to difficulties on navigation, mooring and loading/unloading at the port. Increase in water depth also causes increase of wave height in surf zone. This high wave makes structures unstable and may cause them to collapse during storm. In addition, increase in buoyant force due to sea-level rise also makes the gravity type structures unstable. Consequently, theses variations due to sea-level rise will cause functional deterioration of port facilities. In order to protect port facilities from the functional deterioration, reinforcement plan is required such as raising the crown height and increase in block weight and so on. Hence proper estimation method for the protection cost is necessary in order to protect port facilities efficiently. Moreover response strategies and integrated coastal zone management plan is required to maintain the function of port facilities. A simple estimation of cost for breakwaters in Korea was performed in the present study.

Analytic solutions are derived for wave scattering by a semi-infinite breakwater or a breakwater gap with partially reflective front and fully reflective back. The water depth is constant and a regular wave train is normally incident to the breakwater. Wave scattering is studied based on the linear potential wave theory. The governing equation is transformed into ordinary differential equation by using the method of variation of parameters and coordinate transformation. Comparison with finite element numerical solution shows that the analytic solution obtained in this paper gives quite good results. Using the analytic solution, the tranquility of harbor entrance is investigated by changing the reflection coefficient at the breakwater.

항만 및 어항 구조물을 구성하는 다양한 해안구조물은 파랑의 천수효과, 굴절, 회절, 부분반사, 해저마찰, 쇄파의 영향 등을 고려해야하며 파고 및 파향 등의 해양특성의 검토가 반드시 이루어져야 한다. 실제의 해양파가 방향스펙트럼을 갖는 다방향 불규칙파라는 것은 잘 알려져 있으며, 기존의 해안구조물의 내파설계 또는 천해역의 파랑변형 검토에 있어서도 실제 해양파에 보다 가까운 다방향 불규칙파를 이용한 수리모형실험에 의해 파랑현상을 정도 높게 재현하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 실제 해양파를 정도 높게 재현할 수 있는 다방향 불규칙파 조파장치를 사용하여 구조물 전면해역에서의 파랑스펙트럼을 재현하고, 심해에서 발달된 파랑이 천해로 진행될 때 지형에 의해 발생되는 천수변형과 구조물 주위에서 나타나는 파랑변형의 현상을 고려하여 항내로 유입되는 파랑의 분포 특성을 검토하였다. 특히, 다방향 불규칙파로 인한 항내 파고분포 특성을 검토하기 위하여 동일 파랑에 대한 규칙파 및 불규칙파랑을 조파하여 그 결과를 상호 비교하였다. 아울러, 정온수역유지를 위한 월파현상을 수리적으로 재현할 수 있는 3차원 수리모형실험 수행하여 월파현상이 항내정온도에 미치는 영향을 고찰, 해석하여 항만 시설물 계획시 안정한 정박 및 이용에 대한 가능한 정온유지여부를 검토하였다.

This paper suggested the improvement of marine environmental impact assessment in eastern coast as analyzing consultation on the coastal area utilization for development of ports and fishing harbors for 3years in the east coast. The results of survey are only 3cases, 12cases and 16cases each for ocean currents, wave and sounding data. However, for development of ports and fishing harbors in eastern coast, ocean characteristics in eastern coast different than in the West Sea, South Sea is considered to marine environmental impact assessment. For development of ports and fishing harbors in east coast where the influences of ocean currents, wind-driven current and waves are dominant, the effect of the current should be considered to improve the reproducibility of tidal current. The wave should also be considered as an assessment criteria to obtain the validity of project such as harbor tranquility, functionality of breakwaters and stability. In addition, sediment inflow in river and exact water depth data of the ocean should be applied to numerical modeling and set wave-induced current to external force of sediment transport to predict the problems such as the harbor siltation and the coastal erosion considering ocean characteristics in the east coast.

Busan New Port, under construction aiming for the hub of Northeast Asia and Partly in operation, had damaged up to 48 billion Won due to Typhoon 'maemi' in 2003. The present criteria of domestic harbor design only describes about the critical wave height with respect to the size of vessel for harbor tranquility. The berth operation ratio which represents the annual available berthing days is depending on the efficiency of cargo handling work and this depends on the motion of the moored vessel due to the wave action and the characteristics of cargo gears. The motion of moored vessel might be related not only to the wave height but also to wave period. Furthermore, the berth operation ratio relies on external forces such as currents and winds, including the characteristics of mooring system and the specification of the moored vessel. In this study we only deal with berth operation ratio in normal sea state, considering wave and current by measured data and numerical calculation. Especially we tried to evaluate the berth operation ratio for each berth adopting the variation of dredging and reclamation plan and the change of wave environment during the process of the new port construction. For better understanding and analysis of wave transformation process, we applied the steady state spectral wave model and extended mild-slope wave model to the related site. This study summarizes comparisons of harbor responses predicted by two numerical predictions obtained at Busan New port site. Field and numerical model analysis was conducted for the original port plan and the final corrected plan.

The harbor construction projects can lead to various marine environmental problems including habitat degradation and loss, marine water pollution, change of flow patterns, erosion, scour, sedimentation, and so on. The EIA is a measure to prevent various environmental problems in advance from examining and minimizing the environmental impacts before the proposed developments are implemented. In addition, institutions reviewing EIA reports have made efforts to conduct scientific and standardized EIA by applying EIA guidelines for each project. This study aims to create a EIA guideline focusing on the harbor construction projects. Based on the review comments of the harbor construction EIA reports for the past 13 years (2009-2021) and the EIA guidelines of different types of projects, we identified the marine environmental problems and provided the appropriate guideline. This guideline summarizes and presents the contents which must be reviewed in the baseline condition survey, impact assessment, mitigation, and post-environmental impact investigation in the fields of marine fauna and flora, marine physics, and marine water and sediment quality. In the case of a baseline condition survey of marine fauna and flora, a method for selecting survey points considering the characteristics of sea area and project was presented. When estimating the impact of marine fauna and flora, we presented methods for predicting the impact on them due to the spread of suspended sediments and the damage to benthic habitats due to dredging and reclamation. In consideration of the characteristics of the sea area, we divided the survey items of the marine physics into essential items and supplementary items. In predicting the impact of marine physics, various methods for major issues such as seawater circulation, suspended sediment and bottom sediment transport, water temperature and salinity diffusion, seawater exchange, wave transformation, harbor tranquility, and shoreline change were presented. The research results will contribute to protect the marine environment by inducing more systematic and scientific surveys, impact assessments, and mitigation in the EIA process.

In recent years, the rate of mean sea level rise is increasing rapidly from the phenomena of global warming, together with the increasing trend of the storm scale. The issue of sea level rise is multifaceted and produces a range of environmental problems. Especially, high tides and the tidal currents become higher, and wave base increases, so the energy received at the coastal boundary may increase. This brings that many coastal environments go into disequilibrium, such as damages to the structures, erosion, and deposition Similarly it was known that the problems of nearshore processes and damage of berth and counter facilities during storm period had appeared at the small fishery port. Here we try to analyze the impact of the rearrangement of counter facilities and berth layout adopted for tranquility of its'inner harbor. Because this harbor is being connected to channel and open sea, the rearrangement of the structures might affect to the current speed and direction and wave height, so do to the sea bottom undulation. Therefore, we made model test for the several layouts of the berth and breakwater in this area.
