The aim of this study is to evaluate 3 types of sedimentation basins: dredging, shield skirt and auxiliary dam, constructed at inlets of two irrigation reservoir and to estimate the most beneficial type and fitted size, SAR(surface to area ratio), for pollutant removal efficiency(RE). For this, RE of major water quality items and change of physicochemical properties in sediments before and post construction of sedimentation basin(SB) were investigated. RE depended on SB types, water quality items and survey times with wide range from $-87\%$ to $92\%$. Long term overall removal efficiency by ROC(regression of concentration) method were $18\%$ in dredging, $29\%$ in shield skirt and $42\%$ in auxiliary dam type. There was a change of physicochemical properties in sediments at auxiliary dam type, while a slight change at dredging and shield skirt type. In comparison to RE, SAR and hydraulic retention time at 3 types of SB, auxiliary dam type was the most beneficial one. Thus, it is recommended that SB would be constructed in completely separated structure from water body of a reservoir with SAR ranged from 0.7 to $1.0\%.$

Climate change has been intensifying drought frequency and severity. Such prolonged droughts reduce reservoir levels, thereby exacerbating drought impacts. While previous studies have focused on optimizing reservoir operations using historical data to mitigate these impacts, their scope is limited to analyzing past events, highlighting the need for predictive methods for future droughts. This research introduces a novel approach for predicting minimum inflow at the Seomjingang dam which has experienced significant droughts. This study utilized the Stochastic Analysis Modeling and Simulation (SAMS) 2007 to generate inflow sequences for the same period of observed inflow. Then we simulate reservoir operations to assess firm yield and predict minimum inflow through synthetic inflow analysis. Minimum inflow is defined as the inflow where firm yield is less than 95% of the synthetic inflow in many sequences during periods matching observed inflow. The results for each case indicated the firm yield for the minimum inflow is on average 9.44 m³/s, approximately 1.07 m³/s lower than the observed inflow's firm yield of 10.51 m³/s. The minimum inflow estimation can inform reservoir operation standards, facilitate multi-reservoir system reviews, and assess supplementary capabilities. Estimating minimum inflow emerges as an effective strategy for enhancing water supply reliability and mitigating shortages.

Dynamic analysis of dam-reservoir-foundation system is usually carried out by employing a simplified and approximate one-dimensional model to account for fluid-foundation interaction. The approximation introduced on this basis is examined thoroughly in this paper by comparing the method with the rigorous approach. It is concluded that the errors due to approximate method could be very significant both for horizontal and vertical ground motions.

An unsteady flow model for channel network including various internal boundaries if developed. It is a multiply-connected network model based on the Preissmann's four-point scheme and the Newton-Raphson method, where looped double-sweep algorithm is used. The model is capable of simulating flow through hydraulic structures such as dams and submerged weirs. It can also simulate automatic reservoir operation method (Auto ROM) for flood control, that is to maintain a target water level, by incorporating the strategy to the unsteady flow model as internal boundary condition. The model is applied to the Han River system that includes the downstream reaches of Choongju dam and Hwacheon dam as well as the downstream reach of the Paldang dam. Roughness coefficient for the downstream reach of Choongju dam is estimated. Automatic ROM is presumed for the Paldang, Chungpyung, Euiam, and Choonchun dams. The model is tested using historical flood records, and the flood control strategy is successfully simulated.

The simulation techniques of hydrologic data series have develped for the purposes of the design of water resources system, the optimization of reservoir operation, and the design of flood control of reservoir, etc. While the stochastic models are usually used in most analysis of water resources fields for the generation of data sequences, the indexed sequential modeling (ISM) method based on generation of a series of overlapping short-term flow sequences directly from the historical record has been used for the data generation in the western USA since the early of 1980s. It was reported that the reliable results by ISM were obtained in practical applications. In this study, we generate annual inflow series at a location of Hong Cheon Dam site by using ISM method and autoregressive, order-1 model (AR(1)), and estimate the drought characteristics for the comparison aim between ISM and AR(1).

홍수기간중에는 강우, 유출, 저수지 및 하류 수위등의 수시로 변하는 자료들을 on-line system으로 읽어서 실시간으로 저수지를 운영하므로써 현상태에서의 최선의 방류량을 결정하는 것이 가장 바람직하며, 이를 위한 선행조건으로 정확한 강우및 유출예측모형과 하류의 홍수추적모형이 연계 된다면 저수지의 홍수조절 용량을 최대한 활용하여 최적의 방류량을 결정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 홍수기중 실시간 저수지 운영을 위해 여러가지 제약조건을 고려한 모델을 개발하여, 단일 저수지인 대청 다목적 댐을 대상으로 적용하였다. 예측 유입량 대신에 재현기간별 홍수수문곡선과 실제의 저수지 유입량을 이용했으며, 하류의 홍수추적 모형은 일정한 유량을 방류하는 것이 가장 안전하다고 가정하여 최대 방류량을 변화시키므로써 하도 추적모형을 대신 하였다. 본 모델은 별도의 강우 유출예측모형과 하도의 홍수추적모형과 더불어 종합적인 실시간 저수지 운영모델이 된다.

The goal of the present research was to develop a mean to determine indices of drought warning and emergency necessary to manage drought and establish water supply contingency plan for the municipal and industrial water supply system in urban areas. To do this, we worked on the Sayun catchment which is the main water source of Ulsan and used measured hydrologic data (storage, inflow, supply, outflow) from 1980 to 1996. The indices of drought calculated by the method of Phillips drought index based only on monthly precipitation do not pertinently represent drought phenomena in case water supply is from dam or reservoir in an urban area. Therefor, we developed the drought index technique including inflow, storage, outflow and supply which are the chief factors of drought management. The result showed that the method of Phillips drought index considering the capacity of water supply was excellent when applied to practical drought phenomena.

Tamjin Dam is built in the upper reaches of the Tamjin River which flows through the Janghung-gun and Gangjin-gun of the Jeollanamdo, Korea. In order to map out a preservation strategy of the fish community from dam construction, We studied the distribution of fish distribution and changes of the habitat environment. we found 49 fish species inhabiting in the downstream and upstream of the Tamjin Dam. Among them, migratory fish were two species sweet smelt, Plecoglossus altivelis and freshwater eel, Anguilla japonica. The Coreoperca kawamebari which designated as a species to be protected by The Ministry of Environment of Korea was also observed. After the dam construction, reservoir would be filled with water and running water system will change to standing water system. Then the habitat and spawning space for mountain torrent fish will be reduced and the migration of migratory fish to upstream will be blocked. Through our study, we proposed several ways to protect fish community. In order to preserve the reduced habitat and spawning area of mountain torrent fish, a fishway has been diagnosed to be built in the shallow reservoir in the entrance of the upriver. The establishment of artificial spawning ground on the riverside has been recommended. In addition, We propose a creation of a shelter for fresh water eel, Anguilla japonica in areas where the depth of the water is about l0m by laying rocks. Since it is difficult for a spawning ground to be formed naturally in the reservoir due to the year-round changes in water level, We suggested a floating spawning facility using an artificial fixture. In the downstream of the dam, a waterway-style habitat and spawning ground in the river and increasing the diversity and abundance of fish fauna in the Tamjin River. A low-cost and highly efficient operational fishway has been recommended so that migratory fish such as Plecoglossus altivelis (sweetfish) can migrate from the lower reaches to the upper reaches of the river.

This paper is devoted to two new techniques for free vibration analysis of concrete arch dam-reservoir systems. The proposed schemes are quadratic ideal-coupled eigen-problems, which can solve the originally non-symmetric eigen-problem of the system. To find the natural frequencies and mode shapes, a new special-purpose eigen-value solution routine is developed. Moreover, the accuracy of the proposed approach is thoroughly assessed, and it is confirmed that the new scheme is very accurate under all practical conditions. It is also concluded that both decoupled and ideal-coupled strategy proposed in the previous works can be considered as special cases of the current more general procedure.

In the present paper it is aimed to perform the stochastic dynamic analysis of fluid and fluidstructure systems by using the Lagrangian approach. For that reason, variable-number-nodes twodimensional isoparametric fluid finite elements are programmed in Fortran language by the authors and incorporated into a general-purpose computer program for stochastic dynamic analysis of structure systems, STOCAL. Formulation of the fluid elements includes the effects of compressible wave propagation and surface sloshing motion. For numerical example a rigid fluid tank and a dam-reservoir interaction system are selected and modeled by finite element method. Results obtained from the modal analysis are compared with the results of the analytical and numerical solutions. The Pacoima Dam record S16E component recorded during the San Fernando Earthquake in 1971 is used as a ground motion. The mean of maximum values of displacements and hydrodynamic pressures are compared with the deterministic analysis results.
