The reinforced concrete lining of hydraulic pressure tunnels tends to crack under high inner water pressure (IWP), which results in the inner water exosmosis along cracks and involves typical hydro-mechanical interaction. This study aims at the development, validation and application of an indirect-coupled method to simulate the lining cracking process. Based on the concrete damage plasticity (CDP) model, the utility routine GETVRM and the user subroutine USDFLD in the finite element code ABAQUS is employed to calculate and adjust the secondary hydraulic conductivity according to the material damage and the plastic volume strain. The friction-contact method (FCM) is introduced to track the lining-rock interface behavior. Compared with the traditional node-shared method (NSM) model, the FCM model is more feasible to simulate the lining cracking process. The number of cracks and the reinforcement stress can be significantly reduced, which matches well with the observed results in engineering practices. Moreover, the damage evolution of reinforced concrete lining can be effectively slowed down. This numerical method provides an insight into the cracking process of reinforced concrete lining in hydraulic pressure tunnels.

상대습도 데이터를 이용하여 벤토나이트 완충재 블록의 불포화 수리전도도 변화를 평가하였다. 불포화 매질에서의 물의 흐름을 나타내는 일반적인 분석해를 통해 상대습도를 통한 불포화 수리전도도 계산방안을 도출하였고, 이를 실제 수행한 실내 물 유입 실험 결과에 적용하여 포화가 진행됨에 따라 변화하는 완충재 불포화 수리전도도 양상을 확인하였다. 일반적인 포화 상태와는 확연히 다르게 수두 구배와 물의 유출량이 시간에 따라 불규칙하게 변화하는 결과를 나타냈으며, 벤토나이트 완충재의 불포화 수리전도도는 시간에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 수분 흡수로 인한 벤토나이트 입자 팽창 때문으로 인한 매질 내 공극의 부피 및 크기 확대가 불포화 수리전도도값의 증가를 야기하는 것으로 판단되었고, 이러한 결과는 완충재 블록의 팽창 정도와 수리전도도의 상관성에 관한 추후 연구의 필요성을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 수행된 불포화 수리전도도 평가 방안은 방사성폐기물 처분 시 완충재의 장기적인 수리학적 성능평가에 유용한 기술로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

수압파쇄 기법은 암반 내에 파쇄를 수압을 이용하여 생성하거나 확장시키는 기술로서, 이렇게 생성된 파쇄대는 지반 안에서의 흐름의 통로 역할을 하며, 지하수가 자유롭게 흐르도록 한다. 본 연구에서는 최근에 수압파쇄 기법이 수행된 12개 관정 결과를 바탕으로 암종별 특성을 분명하게 파악하기 위하여 7개의 관정에서 추가로 수압파쇄를 실시하였다. 총 19개소에 대해 화성암(9개소), 변성암(4개소), 퇴적암(6개소)으로 대분하여 암종에 따른 수압파쇄의 가능성을 평가하였으며, 시험결과 화성암은 평균 $93.4\%$, 변성암은 평균 $103\%$, 퇴적암은 $42.2\%$의 산출량 증가를 보였다. 본 연구에서 수행된 수압파쇄의 적용은 암종별로 차이를 보이지만, 전반적으로 관정의 산출량을 증대시키는 효과적인 방법임을 확인하였다.

개착식 하상여과에 대해서 실험실 규모의 모형을 구축하고 중사, 왕사, 화산석, 자갈에 대한 단일 여재를 구성하였다. 실험을 통해 투수계수 및 하상 여과에 대한 취수량을 추정하고, 지하수 유동 모델링인 Visual MODFLOW를 통해 탁도 변화에 따라 수정된 투수계수를 적용하고 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 각 여재마다 22개의 수정 투수계수 시나리오가 적용되었다. 전체 모델링에서 최소 오차는 화산석(2~5 mm)을 여재로 한 경우 상부에서부터 3개 지층에 대해서 20% 감소된 투수계수를 적용한 시나리오다. 이는 화산석의 특성상 탁도를 유발하는 황토가 여재에 흡착되어 상부에서 3번째 지층까지 영향을 미치는 것으로 추정되었다. 또한 입자의 크기가 작은 중사의 경우 5% 감소된 투수계수를 상부에서 두 번째 지층까지 적용한 시나리오에서도 작은 오차 값을 나타냈다.

This study analyzed the hydraulic characteristics of a venturi flume with a circular cone using a 3-D numerical model which uses RANS(Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes Equation) as the governing equation. The venturi flume with the circular cone efficiently measures the discharge in the low-flow to high-flow range and offers the advantage of accurate discharge measurements in the case of a low flow. With no influence of the tail-water depth, the stage-discharge relationship and the flow behaviors were analyzed to verify the numerical simulation results. Additionally, this study reviewed the effect of the tail-water depth on the flow. The stage-discharge relationship resulting from a numerical simulation in the absence of an effect by the tail-water depth showed a maximum margin of error of 4 % in comparison to the result of a hydraulic experiment. The simulation results reproduced the overall flow behaviors observed in the hydraulic experiment well. The flow starts to become influenced by the tail-water depth when the ratio of the tail-water depth to the total head exceeds approximately 0.7. As the ratio increases, the effect on the flow tends to grow dramatically. As shown in this study, a numerical simulation is effective for identifying the stage-discharge relationship of a venturi flume with various types of venturi bodies, including a venturi flume with a circular cone.

Temperature is one of the important factors affecting the permeability of water in the soil. In the present study, the impact of water temperature on hydraulic conductivity (k) with and without coarse aggregations by considering six types of soils was analyzed. Moreover, the effect of sand and gravel presence in the soil was investigated through the infiltration based on constant and inconstant water head experiments. Results indicated that by increasing the water temperature, adding gravel to sandy soil caused the hydraulic conductivity to raise. It is supposed that the gravel decreased the contact surface between the water and the soil aggregates. It is deduced that due to decreasing kinetic energy, k tends to have lower values. Furthermore, adding the sand to sandy silt-clay soil showed that the sand did not have a marginal effect on the variation of k since the added sand cannot increase the contact surface like gravel. Finally, increasing the main diameter of the soil will increase the effect of the water temperature on hydraulic conductivity.

The topographic influences for the hydraulic characteristics in the estuary were studied by the hydraulic model test. The upstream boundary is set up at the Kumkang estuary dike and the downstream boundary at the Kunsan outer port. The geometrical model scales in horizontal and vertical are 1/300 and 1/100 respectively so that the distorted ratio is 3. If there is no or little river flow through the gate, the highest water levels are varied with $\pm$ 5cm compared with those before the project. If there is a flood flow through the gate, the highest water levels in front of the estuary dike are reduced 5~2Ocm depending on the frequency of flood compared with those before the project. This means that there is no important risk of excessive water level rise after the dredging.

A water hydraulic pump is likely to have serious problems of high leakage, friction and low energy efficiency. A water hydraulic pump has commonly a fixed displacement type and its outlet flow is adjusted by controlling rotation speed of the pump, which can be implemented by using an electric inverter. This study aims to investigate energy efficiency of the water hydraulic pump system which is driven by an electric inverter. The study is based on the experimental results. The pump which is used in the study shows relatively good efficiency and low leakage, low friction as well. The reasons for the good performance of pump is also investigated.

Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) process is one of membrane processes for harvesting renewable energy by using salinity difference between feed and draw solutions. Power is generated by permeation flux multiplied by hydraulic pressure in draw side. Membrane fouling phenomena in PRO process is presumed to be less sever, but it is inevitable. Membrane fouling in PRO process decreases water permeation through membrane, resulting in significant power production decline. This study intended to investigate the effect of hydraulic pressure in PRO process on alginate induced organic fouling as high and low hydraulic pressures (6.5 bar and 12 bar) were applied for 24 h under the same initial water flux. In addition, organic fouling in draw side from the presence of foulant (sodium alginate) in draw solution was examined. As major results, hydraulic pressure was found to be not a significant factor affecting in PRO organic fouling as long as the same initial water flux is maintained, inidicating that operating PRO process with high hydraulic pressure for efficient energy harvesting will not cause severe organic fouling. In addition, flux decline was negligible from the presence of organic foulant in draw side.

본 연구는 도수(hydraulic jump)의 롤러(roller)의 거동을 분석하기 위해 영상기법을 이용한 실험연구를 수행하였다. 조석단파(tidal bore)의 거동 특성의 이해에 적용하기 위해 하류심 상승에 따른 도수 전면부의 파형과 변동성을 검토하였다. 도수의 변동성을 고려한 앙상블평균 기법을 적용하여 얻은 파형을 제시하여 시간평균 결과와 비교하였다. 앙상블평균의 기준이 된 도수시작점의 시간적 변화로부터 도수 전면부의 변동성을 통계적으로 분석하였다. 하류심 상승에 따라 전면 파형은 완만해지는 것으로 나타났으며, 시작점 변동성은 감소하였다.
