The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of filter aids in the dual-media rapid filtration. Paper-filter tests were conducted to determine the proper dosages of coagulant and filter aid, and pilot plant tests using two dual-media filter columns were performed for a variety of filtration rates. Using a filter aid (non-ionic polymer), the maximum feasible filtration rate is 480m/day, while turbidity is less than 0.3 NTU and filter run-time is about 70 hours. It is possible to increase the filtration rate up to 360 m/day for keeping the turbidity less than 0.1 NTU. Turbidity increases for the filtration rate greater than 360m/day. In general, the quality of filtered water with a filter aid is stable, while the filter maintains a sufficient filter run-time for a maximum allowable head loss. Particularly, the initial breakthrough can be effectively controlled. The use of a filter aid may be one of the methods applicable if the turbidity of filtered water is required to be improved or if the filter breakthrough limits filter run-time.

This study has been focus to certify the run-up heights, losses of human lives and property damages due to the 1983 Central East Sea tsunami. We have conducted the interview with indigenous inhabitant and field surveying at the Imwon port, East sea in Korea in order to inquire into the state of things occurred during that period. It is also investigated how much well they are aware of the emergency action plan including the evacuation system. Base on the reliable interviews, we selected and surveyed 10 places at the Imwon port, where the historical maximum overflowing occurred due to the 1983 Central East Sea tsunami. The measured run-up heights are approximately $3.3m{\sim}4.0m$ at the selected 10 places and it is found that the sea water ran over the banks in Imwon stream about 700m upstream from the Imwon port. From this study we can suggest supplementing the present emergency action plan and supply the state-of-the-art inundation map.

Accurate prediction of wave-structure interactions is important in the safety and design cost effectiveness of fixed and floating offshore structures exposed to extreme environmental conditions. In this study, regular waves and circular column structure interactions for four circular columns in regular waves are analyzed. To simulate 3D two-phase flow, open source computational fluid dynamics libraries, called OpenFOAM, were used. When the four circular columns are arranged in a square array, the interactions according to the incident slopes of the regular waves are analyzed. The wave run-up in the circular column surface was compared according to the slope of the incident wave. It was confirmed that high amplitude waves are generated between the circular columns due to the interaction between the circular column and the incident wave. It is expected that this analytical result will be used as the basic data of the study on the air gap due to the interaction between the structure and incident wave.

In order to increase the stability of existing breakwater, new caissons are installed on the back or the front of existing caissons. It is very important to evaluate wave force and wave run-up according to the change of porosity among caissons and the energy loss due to separation effects. In this study, we use the eigenfunction expansion method with Darcy's law, which describes the flow of a fluid through a porous plate, to analyze the characteristics of wave on circular breakwater of double array for various porous coefficients. To verify the numerical method, the comparison between present results and Sankarbabu et al. (2008) is made. The wave force and the wave run-up acting on each dual cylindrical caisson are calculated for various parameters by considering the energy loss and the change of porosity.

In this present study, we made a first attempt to investigate physical transformations of incident waves in surf and swash zone and hydrodynamic phenomena of detached and submerged breakwaters. For an accurate simulation of the complicated wave deformation, Three-Dimensional numerical model with Large Eddy Simulation has been developed recently and expanded properly for the current applications, which is able to simulate an accurate and direct WAve Structure Sandy seabed interaction (hereafter, LES-WASS-3D). LES-WASS-3D has been validated through the comparison with experimental results for limited cases, and has been used for the simulation of wave run-up on sandy beach, mean fluid flows over and around submerged structures and swash zone (alongshore/rip current), and spatial distribution of wave height in wide fluid regions. In addition, a strategy of efficient deployment ($Y/L_i=1.50{\sim}1.75$, $W/L_r=0.50$) of the submerged breakwaters has been discussed.
