In this study, the flow characteristic analysis at the curved-channel of the actual channel section is compared and reviewed using the 2D RMA-2 model and the 3D FLOW-3D model. the curve section with curve rate 1.044 in the research section is analyzed applying the frequency of he project flood of 100 years. According to the result, the issue for the application of the FLOW-3D Model's three-dimensional numeric analysis result to the actual river is found to be reviewed with caution. Also, application of the 3D model to the wide basin's flood characteristic is determined to be somewhat risky. But, the applicability to the hydraulic property analysis of a partial channel section and the impact analysis and forecast of hydraulic structure is presumed to be high. In addition, if the parameters to reflect the vegetation of basin and the actual channel, more accurate topological measurement data and the topological data with high closeness to the current status are provided, the result with higher reliability is considered to be drawn.

Microstructure and shear strength of Sn-Zn lead-free solders and Au/Ni/Cu UBM joint under thermal aging conditions was investigated. The samples were aged isothermally at 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$0^{\circ}C$ for 300, 600, and 900 hours. The IMCs(Intermetallic Compound) at the interface between solder and UBM were examined by FESEM and TEM. The results showed that the shear strength was decreased with aging time and temperature. The solder ball with high activated RA flux had about 8.2% higher shear strength than that of RMA flux. Poor wetting and many voids were observed in the fractured solder joint with of RMA flux. The decreased shear strengths were caused by IMC growth and Zn grain coarsening. Zn reacted with Au and then was transformed to the $\beta$ -AuZn compound. Although AuZn grew first, $r-Ni_5Zn_{21}$ compounds were formed with aging time. The layers indicated by $Ni_5Zn_{21}(1)$, (2), and (3) were formed with the thickness of ∼0.7 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, ∼4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and ∼2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively.

The understanding and prediction of the behavior of flow in open channels are important to the solution of a wide variety of practical flow problems in water resources engineering. Recently, frequent drought has increased the necessity of an effective water resources control and management of river flows for reserving instream flow. The objective of this study is to develop an efficient and accurate finite element model based on Streamline Upwind/Petrov-Galerkin(SU/PG) scheme for analyzing and predicting two dimensional flow features in complex natural rivers. Several tests were performed in developed all elements(4-Node, 6-Node, 8-Node elements) for the purpose of validation and verification of the developed model. The U-shaped channel of flow and natural river of flow were performed for tests. The results were compared with these of laboratory experiments and RMA-2 model. Such results showed that solutions of high order elements were better accurate and improved than those of linear elements. Also, the suggested model displayed reasonable velocity distribution compare to RMA-2 model in meandering domain for application of natural river flow. Accordingly, the developed finite element model is feasible and produces reliable results for simulation of two dimensional natural river flow. Also, One contribution of this study is to present that results can lead to significant gain in analyzing the accurate flow behavior associated with hydraulic structure such as weir and water intake station and flow of chute and pool.

하천과 바다가 만나는 하구는 자연적인 기능 뿐만 아니라 공학적인 측면에서도 매우 중요한 자원이다. 우리나라는 국토의 개발에 따른 용수 사용의 증가, 홍수재해대책 등으로 인해 한강을 제외한 4대강에 하구둑을 건설하였으며 강물과 바닷물을 인위적으로 차단하는 구조물이므로 하천의 생태적인 기능을 손상시키는 것은 불가피 하다. 하지만 이러한 단점에도 불구하고 하구둑이 건설되는 가장 큰 목적 중의 하나는 주변지역의 안정된 용수공급이다. 1987년에 완공된 낙동강 하구둑은 건설 이 후 약 20년 동안 안정된 용수공급과 효율적 운영으로 관리되어 왔지만 그동안 기상 및 수리 수문뿐만 아니라 환경적으로 크고 작은 변화가 있었다. 하천의 기수역인 하구에서 유체는 하구둑이라는 구조물이 존재하지 않을 때도 매우 복잡하게 거동한다. 하천의 유량, 지형학적 요소 그리고 조위의 상태 등 여러 가지 요인으로 인하여 비정상적으로 변화하며 이러한 하구에서 유체의 거동을 보다 더 정확하게 묘사하려면 흐름방향, 수심방향, 하폭방향의 3차원적인 해석이 필요하다. 하지만 하천과 바다를 밀도가 같은 하나의 상으로 가정하고 수행한 수문학적인 분석이나 1 2차원 수치모형을 활용한 수리 분석 결과는 시간적 공간적으로 경제적이고 양호한 결과를 산출해낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 하구둑의 수리특성을 분석하기 위하여 미국 기상청의 홍수추적모형인 FLDWAV 모형과 미수로국(WES)의 2차원 유한요소 모형인 RMA-2 모형을 활용하였으며 낙동강유역 주요 수위관측소의 실측자료를 토대로 매개변수 검정을 실시하였다. 분석결과 조위가 고려된 2차원 유속장을 구현하였으며 하구둑 유지 관리 개선에 기여코자 하였다.

국내의 다목적댐 저수지는 물이 흐르는 하천에 용수공급, 홍수조절 및 수력발전을 위해 만든 구조물로 형성된 저류상태를 의미한다. 이러한 수체의 유동에 영향을 미치는 가장 중요한 요소로는 유입수와 저수지에서 하천으로 방류되는 방류수이므로 본 연구에서는 유입수와 방류수에 의한 수체의 유동만을 고려하였다. 대상지는 용담댐 유역중 취수탑이 있는 지점으로 길이는 약 1,250m이고 폭은 평균 375m 정도의 크기를 갖고 있는 지형이다. 대상 지역에서 저수지 수체의 흐름특성을 평가하기 위해 SMS-RMA2 모형을 적용하였으며 용담댐 저수지 구역에 대한 1m 간격의 등고선을 가지고 대상지역에 대하여 격자를 구성하였다. 격자 크기는 평균 길이 방향으로 43m, 폭 방향으로 15m 크기로 구성하였으며 유속이 상대적으로 빠른 취수탑 부근은 좀더 세밀하게 구성하였다. 4년간 수문자료를 분석하여 이 지역의 흐름을 년중 크게 3가지로 구분하였다. 수체거동이 급변하는 여름 강우기 후에 저수지에 물이 풍부한 경우의 흐름, 봄철 저수지 물이 풍부하지 않은 상태에서 주자천으로 부터의 유입은 최하인 상태의 경우 그리고 강우기에 짧은 기간 나타나는 주자천 위주 흐름의 경우로 구분하여 모의하였다. 각각의 경우 전체적인 흐름장은 확연히 다르게 나타났으며 이런 결과로 볼 때 수체의 흐름은 상하류의 유입량 변화에 따라 항상 흐름은 변화하는 것으로 평가되었으나, 저수지 수체의 흐름 속도는 모두 0.05$^{\sim}$1.5cm/sec 정도로 모의된 것은 수체적 대비 방류량이 적어서 나타나는 현상으로 평가되었다.

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.

This paper presents a novel method to predict a flushing rate in an embayment system, which can be utilized to assess an environmental impact caused by harbor construction. The method was successfully applied to the Ulsan-Onsan coastal area. The flushing rate was computed on the basis of water quality changes predicted by US Army Corps of Engineers' RMA-2/RMA-4 models. After calibration and verification to the measured tidal elevation and current velocity, the model was used to estimate the flushing rate in the proposed harbor. The water quality was simulated for 96 hours and the flushing rate was computed. The results indicated that the proposed harbor would significantly reduce the flushing rate in the Onsan harbor, especially at the small embayment area near the south breakwater. The flushing rate was evaluated for several alternatives, of which the tidal flow channel of 1,000 $m^2$ in the south pier appeared to be the best mitigation measure. This study proposes that the prediction of flushing rate would be a novel method to assess a water quality impact caused by harbor construction.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a structure plan for improving the utilization of inactive storage in the dam for overcoming the drought. Inactive storage in the dam is composed of the emergency storage and dead storage. The emergency storage can be used for the case of emergency such as drought. But, in general, the dead storage for sedimentation is not used even for the emergency. Therefore, this study considers the part of dead storage that the sedimentation is not progressed yet can be used during the severe drought period and is called "drought storage in a dam". The accurate Sediment Level(SL) analysis for the computation of the drought storage should be performed and so the present and future SL in the dam reservoir is estimated using SED-2D linked with RMA-2 model of SMS. After the consideration of additionally available storage capacity based on the estimated SL, the drought storage is finally determined. Present data based on historical data, future predicted future climate factors by Representative Concentrarion Pathways(RCP) 8.5 scenario. Then, using the TANK model, dam inflows were determined, and future period such as SL and drought storage were suggested. As the results, we have found that the available drought storage will be reduced in the future when we compare the present drought storage with the future one. This is due to a increase variability of climate change. Therefore, we should take the necessary study for the increase of available drought storage in the future.

The objective of this study is to perform hydraulic and numerical model experiments of the flows in circulation-water-pump(CWP) chambers of combined cycle power plants (CCPP) to be built and to suggest improvement plans if the flows might cause a serious problem on the operation of CWPs. Hydraulic model was constructed in a scale of 1 to 20 using acrylic sheets and a two dimensional numerical model used was RMA2. To evaluate results of Hydraulic and numerical model experiments, evaluation criteria of flow conditions in the intake canal and CWP chambers were determined. Vertical vorticities obtained from numerical simulations for the initial plan of CCPPs were qualitatively compared with results of hydraulic model experiments and the formation possibility of a large scale vortex, one of the flow evaluation criteria, was evaluated. The initial plan was found not to satisfy the flow evaluation. Nine improvement plans were devised and numerically simulated. Four alternative plans among nine improvement plans were selected and hydraulically experimented. On the ground of the results of hydraulic model experiments, a final improvement plan, one of four improvement plants, was suggested. When CWP chambers and intake canals were designed with spatial constraints, flow separating wall and guide walls were found to improve flow conditions in CWP chambers.
