Two dimensional finite element model, RMA, is used to simulate flood inundation phenomena from main channel to floodplain. The marsh porosity method allows finite elements to simulate gradual transition between wet and dry states. The model is applied to prismatic trapezoidal channel to test the applicability of wetting and drying. The floodwave in a river which meanders through a floodplain is also analyzed. The short-circuiting effects, in which the flow leave the meandering main channel and takes a more direct route on the floodplain, are analyzed with various sinuosity factor and roughness coefficients. Finally, the model is applied to the midstream of the Keum River. Wet/dry calculation can simulate the various discharge condition with the same finite element networks.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between physical stream characteristics and bed materials in natural rivers. Accordingly, four natural rivers were selected reference streams, they were Nam river, Sumjin River, Naesung River and Han River. Grain size distributions of bed materials were gravels, cobbles and boulders in Han river and Nam river, were sand, gravels, cobbles and boulders in Sumjin river and were sand in Naesung river. Four reference streams were divided into each two reference reaches (straight and bend) by plan and profile characteristics of naturally meandering stream. Therefore various reference reaches were chosen in the aspect of physical stream characteristics and grain size distributions. The results investigated and analyzed are as follows. The streams that grain sizes distributions of river bed materials were coarse were stable because they had variety of bed slope without sediment deposition, and then the riffles frequency and the physical characteristics were various. Also, velocitydepth regime were various in four kinds, and the response parts for water level change were small, so that channel flow status were stable and excellent condition. On the other hand, sand river that grain sizes distributions of river bed materials were fine had not the variety of parameters as velocity-depth regimes, sediment deposition, channel flow status and riffles frequency, so that the physical stream characteristics were not various.

This study aims to experimentally investigate the characteristics of secondary flows in a natural channel. For this objective, various conditions of water discharge and depth are tested in a real-scale experimental channel which has 1.2 of meandering. From results of experiments, it is observed that the maximum flow velocity exists in the outer zone of ben. This result is different from the previous studies conducted with laboratory experiments. The bank of 1:2 slope replicating the condition of natural channel is considered to cause this result. The location of the maximum flow velocity moves to the center of channel as the channel changes to be straight. It is also known from this study that two vorteces coexist on the left and right banks of bend.

The types, distributional and shape properties of abandoned channels in Korea are classified and examined. There are 409 abandoned channels in Korea and they can be classified into the 6 types such as the incised meander cutoff, stream piracy, distributary, artificial incised meander neck-cutoff, channel straightening of free meander and distributary streams. The abandoned channels by incised meander neck-cutoff showing the most frequency with 266, have the topographical properties of high altitude and steep relief and frequently distribute in Gangwon and Gyeonbuk Province and in the upper reaches of main stream of Nakdong-River, and Dal-River and Pyeongchang-River, tributaries of Namhan-River. The most frequency areas of abandoned channels by distributary, channel straightening of free meander and distributary streams are the lower reaches of Namhan-River and main stream in the lower reaches of Nakdong-River, Mangyeong-River and Yeongsan-River, and Geumho-River, respectively. The abandoned channles by incised meandering neck-cutoff and stream piracy are relatively used as farmlands or forests due to the high altitude and relative altitude from the river bed.

In this study, a finite element model based on the SU/PG scheme was developed to solve shallow-water equations and the influences of parameters and internal boundary conditions on depth-averaged flow behavior were investigated. To analyze the effect of roughness coefficient and eddy viscosity on flow characteristics, the developed model was applied to rectangular meandering channel with two bends, and transverse velocities and water depth distributions were examined. As the roughness coefficient adjacent to wall increased, the velocities near the wall decreased, and the reduced velocities were compensated by the expanding mid-channel velocities. In addition, the flow characteristics around a circular cylinder were analyzed by varying the internal boundary conditions as free slip and no slip. The assignment of slip condition changed the velocity distribution on the cylinder surface and reduced the magnitude of the shear stress up to one third.

At the bends of a river, the deflected flow of high energy erodes the embankment and transports sediment, ultimately changing the river's course. Such phenomena lead to instability of the embankment and may cause serious problems for nearby roads, land, or riverside structures. This study intends to analyze the characteristics of hydraulic flow at S-shaped bends after the installation of Riprap Weirs designed to prevent changes in a river's course and embankment erosion. An experimental channel was constructed by a two-dimensional CCHE2D model, and analyzed the characteristics of hydraulic flow with and without the Riprap Weirs. Also, the characteristics of hydraulic flow at the inner and outer sides of river bends and at points near reservoirs were analyzed, depending on the intervals between the Riprap Weirs.

본 연구에서는 천수방정식의 매개변수인 조도계수와 난류점성계수에 따른 사행수로에서의 유속분포를 수치모의하였다. 벽면조도계수와 텐서형 난류점성계수를 변화시켜 8가지 수치모의 조건을 구성하였으며, 만곡부 정점에서의 횡방향 유속분포를 수리실험에 의한 측정값과 비교하였다. 벽면조도계수가 커질수록 벽면에서의 유속이 감소하여 실측값과 가까워지지만 벽면 이외의 영역에서는 오히려 유속이 증가하여 실측값보다 커졌다. 난류점성계수가 커질수록 만곡부 내외측의 유속차는 작게 나타났으며 xx와 yy방향으로 가중된 난류점성계수를 가지는 경우가 xy방향으로 가중된 난류점성계수를 가지는 경우에 비해 내외측 유속차가 약간 작게 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 복단면 사행수로의 흐름특성과 수위특성을 정량적으로 분석하고자 코사인 유도형(cosine-generated) 복단면 만곡 수로 실험 자료를 기초로 3차원 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모의에는 3차원 수치모의 프로그램인 Flow3D을 사용하였고, 난류 모델은 RNG ${\kappa}-{\epsilon}$ 모델을 사용 하였다. 수치모의 결과는 실험 결과와의 비교를 통하여 평면유속분포 및 유속벡터, 만곡부 단면에서의 수위분포 등으로 분석하였고, 이는 이전의 실험결과와 일치하는 것으로 나타난다. 특히, 평면 유속분포는 수위 증가에 따라 저수로 중심의 최대 유속선이 만곡 내측으로 이동하는 것이 모의되었다. 이런 흐름구조는 다른 연구자들이 이전까지 연구한 실험 및 수치모의 결과와도 일치한다. 또한, 수위 분포 결과에서는 사행하도의 원심력에 의한 흐름특성인 만곡부 내측과 외측의 수위차가 미세하게 발견되었다.

하도식생은 흐름과 유사의 이송에 영향을 주고, 하도의 지형변화를 일으키는데 중요한 역할을 하다. 하도 식생의 밀도가 증가하면, 하안의 안정성이 증가하고 하안침식이 감소하며, 사주의 형상과 거동에 영향을 준다. 또한 하천의 사행발달 및 하천의 지형변화에 영향을 준다. 식생의 성장과 밀도는 홍수 및 하상변동에 의하여 영향을 받으며, 이는 흐름 및 하천의 지형에 영향을 준다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 하도식생에 의한 사행하천의 발달과정을 2차원 수치모형을 적용하여 분석하였다. 하도식생의 생의 성장과 소멸과정을 고려하여 식생밀도를 고려하여 사행하천의 변화 과정을 분석하였다. 초기에 하안침식이 발생하고, 하폭이 증가하였다. 특히, 흐름이 집중되는 만곡부에서 하안침식이 증가하며, 하도의 사행도가 증가하였다(Fig.1(b)). 시간이 증가하면서 만곡부 내측에서 고정사주 내측에서 scroll bar가 발달하며, 만곡부 외측에서는 하안침식이 발생하고, 사행도가 증가하였다. 또한 식생의 침수시간이 감소하고 식생의 성장률은 증가하였다(Fig.1(c)). 식생의 밀도가 증가함에 따라 사행도는 증가하였다. 식생의 밀도가 증가함에 따라,

This paper aims to develop the numerical model for prediction of the channel migration by analyzing of sediment and flow characteristics with patterns of channel in alluvial rivers. Flow in rivers constitutes to be the meandering or the braided form and rarely straight channel through morphologically stable patterns with mutual actions between the flowing water and bed materials. In order to develop the model for simulation of the channel migration, the channels are divided into two types with positive or negative sign by the direction of curvature radius of the centerline channel ($r_c$). That is, the single bend-channel consists of only one curvature of positive or negative sign and the multi-bend channel consists of two more curvatures of positive or negative sign, respectively. The model analyzes the sediment and flow characteristics under the influence of superelevation, spiral motion, irregularity in bed topography and depth-averaged velocity of channels. For reliability of this model, the single bend-channel and the multi bend channel are compared with experiment data in other models and the measured field data in the Keum-River, respectively. As a result, the both com parisians turn out to be excellent.
