본 연구에서는 강릉 해수욕장 전면에서 20년간 관측된 파랑자료의 극치분석을 통하여 재현빈도 10, 20, 30 및 50년의 천해설계파를 도출하였다. 이들을 수산청(1988) 및 한국해양연구원(2005)에 제시된 강릉 해역에 대한 재현빈도별 심해파 조건을 경계조건으로 천해파 모델인 SWAN을 사용하여 관측지점에서의 파고를 구한 값과 비교하였다. 그 결과 이러한 기존의 심해파 조건들로 계산한 강릉 해역의 천해파고는 관측치에 비해 상당히 작게 제시되었으며 그 차이는 재현빈도의 증가에 따라 커지는 것을 확인하였다. 한국해양연구원은 이전보다 상세한 격자와 WAM 모델을 사용하여 2004년 1월부터 2008년 8월까지의 역추산 자료를 생성하였으며, 이를 천해역의 관측 자료와 비교한 결과 1979~2003년의 자료에 비해 동계 폭풍파의 재현성이 크게 향상되었음을 확인하였다. 앞으로 2004년 이전에 대해서도 상세 격자와 WAM 모델을 사용한 역추산 자료의 생성 및 이를 사용한 심해파의 보완 작업이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

Accurate simulation of free-surface wave flows around a ship is very important for better hull-form design. In this paper, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code which is based on the open source libraries, OpenFOAM, was developed to predict the wave patterns around a ship. Additional anti-diffusion source term for minimizing a numerical diffusion, which was caused by convection differencing scheme, was considered in the volume-fraction transport equation. The influence of the anti-diffusion source term was tested by applying it to free-surface wave flow around the Wigley and KCS model ships. In results, the wave patterns and hull wave profiles of the Wigley and KCS model ships for various anti-diffusion coefficients showed quite close patterns. While, the band width of the water volume-fraction values between 0.1 to 0.9 at the Wigley and KCS model hull surfaces was narrowed by considering the anti-diffusion term. From the results, anti-diffusion source term decreased free-surface smearing.

In this paper, the mooring system for a floating wave energy farm is designed based on a two-dimensional analysis. The mooring system uses an anchorless mooring line linking two floaters in a floating wave energy farm. The basic equation to determine the length of the mooring line between the two floaters is proposed. The other properties such as the diameter and pretension are taken from the mooring line for a single floater. The dynamic behavior and safety of the designed mooring system under extreme ocean conditions are analyzed with the commercial software Orcaflex. A numerical study shows the stability and high safety in tension of the designed mooring lines for a floating wave energy farm. The proposed anchorless mooring system for a floating wave energy farm results in a considerable reduction in the length of the mooring line, contributing to the economics of a floating wave energy farm.

Internal waves occur at the interface between two layers caused by a seawater density difference. The internal waves generated by a body moving in a two-layer fluid are also related to the generation of surface waves because of their interaction. In these complex flow phenomena, the experimental measurements and experimental set-up for the wave patterns of the internal waves and surface waves are very difficult to perform in a laboratory. Therefore, studies have mainly been carried out using numerical analysis. However, model tests are needed to evaluate the accuracy of numerical models. In this study, the various experimental conditions were evaluated using CFD simulations before experiments to measure the wave patterns of the internal waves and surface waves in a stratified two-layer fluid. The numerical simulation conditions included variations in the densities of the fluids, depth of the two-layer fluid, and moving speed of the underwater body.

This paper attempts to combine the pneumatic breakwater and submerged breakwater to increase the effectiveness of wave damping for long-period waves. A series of physical experiments concerning pneumatic breakwater, submerged breakwater and their joint breakwater was conducted and used to validate a mathematical model based on Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, the RNG $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and the VOF method. In addition, the mathematical model was used to investigate the wave transmission coefficients of three breakwaters. The nonlinear wave propagation behaviors and the energy transfer from lower frequencies to higher frequencies after the submerged breakwater were investigated in detail. Furthermore, an optimal arrangement between pneumatic breakwater and submerged breakwater was obtained for damping longer-period waves that cannot be damped effectively by the pneumatic breakwater alone. In addition, the reason for the appearance of the combination effect is that part of the energy of the transmitted waves over the submerged breakwater transfers to shorter-period waves. Finally, the impact of the joint breakwater on the wave field during wave propagation process was investigated.

Studies on very large offshore structures are increasing owing to the development of deep sea, large-scale energy generation using ocean resources, and so on. The enlargement of offshore structures makes the hydroelastic effect and low natural frequency related responses important. Numerical analyses and model tests for hydroelastic and higher-order springing responses of fixed cylindrical structures are conducted in this study. The panel methods with and without the hydroelastic effect with shell elements, and the Morison analysis method with beam elements are applied. To observe the hydroelastic effect for structural strength, two structures are considered: bottom-fixed cylindrical structures with high and low bending stiffnesses, respectively. The surge motions at the top of the structure and bending stresses on the structure are observed under regular and irregular wave conditions. The regular wave conditions are generated considering the ratios of the cylindrical outer diameter to the wave lengths, and keeping the wave steepness constant. The model tests are performed in the three-dimensional ocean engineering basin in the KRISO (Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering). From the numerical and experimental results, in which the hydroelastic responses are only observed in the case of the structure with a low bending stiffness, it is confirmed that the hydroelastic responses are highly dependent on the structural stiffness. Additionally, the higher-order phenomenon on the specified wave condition is analyzed by observing the higher-order springing responses when the incident wave frequency or its multiples with the high wave height coincides with the natural frequency of the structure.

In recent years, as human casualties and property damage caused by hazardous waves have increased in the East Sea, precise wave prediction skills have become necessary. In this study, the Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) third-generation numerical wave model was calibrated and optimized to enhance the accuracy of winter storm wave prediction in the East Sea. We used Source Term 6 (ST6) and physical observations from a large-scale experiment conducted in Australia and compared its results to Komen's formula, a default in SWAN. As input wind data, we used Korean Meteorological Agency's (KMA's) operational meteorological model called Regional Data Assimilation and Prediction System (RDAPS), the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts' newest 5th generation re-analysis data (ERA5), and Japanese Meteorological Agency's (JMA's) meso-scale forecasting data. We analyzed the accuracy of each model's results by comparing them to observation data. For quantitative analysis and assessment, the observed wave data for 6 locations from KMA and Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency (KHOA) were used, and statistical analysis was conducted to assess model accuracy. As a result, ST6 models had a smaller root mean square error and higher correlation coefficient than the default model in significant wave height prediction. However, for peak wave period simulation, the results were incoherent among each model and location. In simulations with different wind data, the simulation using ERA5 for input wind datashowed the most accurate results overall but underestimated the wave height in predicting high wave events compared to the simulation using RDAPS and JMA meso-scale model. In addition, it showed that the spatial resolution of wind plays a more significant role in predicting high wave events. Nevertheless, the numerical model optimized in this study highlighted some limitations in predicting high waves that rise rapidly in time caused by meteorological events. This suggests that further research is necessary to enhance the accuracy of wave prediction in various climate conditions, such as extreme weather.

본 연구에서는 테트라포드로 피복된 경사식 마운드 위의 직립벽에 작용하는 충격쇄파압을 쇄파 형태에 따라 구분하기 위해 규칙파를 생성하고 충돌 직전의 유속장과 기포분율을 측정하였다. 유속장 측정을 위해 쇄파 중 발생하는 기포의 움직임을 추적하는 기포영상유속계를 사용하고 기포분율 측정을 위해 복합파고계 기법(Na and Son, 2021)을 활용하였다. 측정된 입사파의 주기가 짧을수록 최대평균유속은 사면에서 파속에 비해 적은 감소율을 보였지만 파랑이 사면을 따라 진행하며 쇄파가 더 빨리 발생하여 기포분율이 증가하였고 결과적으로 중복파압형태의 파압이 작용하였다. 주기가 큰 실험파의 경우 충돌 전 유입되는 공기가 적어 flip-through 형태(Cooker and Peregrine, 1991)의 흐름양상을 보였고, 파압이 급격하게 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다.

어떤 특정 위치에서 파속이 빠른 파가 느린 파를 추월하도록 여러가지 다른 주파수의 파를 중첩시킴으로써 심해쇄파에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 예상 쇄파지점 근처에서 큰 파고를 갖는 붕괴파와 권파를 조파시켰다. 쇄파점에 가까워 질수록 붕괴파와 권파의 파형경사가 뚜렷하게 증가되었고 쇄파 후에는 감소되었다. 격렬한 권파시에는 파형경각가 보다 더 증가됨을 볼 수 있었다. 파군 중의 기본적인 주파수들은 파낭의 전파과정이나, 특히 격렬한 권파시에도 별 변동이 없었다.
