Loopnet model was developed to simulate unsteady flow in the looped network channel, considering change of the time and space. In this study, the looped solution algorithm was derived and the accuracy and stability of the model was tested. The Gulpo river system was used to calculate the flood water levels considering the hydraulic structures, tidal effect and inflow hydrographs. The result of the simulation showed that the accuracy and stability of this model was reliable. The change of flood water level of the Gulpo River system and the spillway section were not greatly affected by the operation water level of the navigation channel. But this analysis showed that roughness was one of the very important physical factor in changing flood water level.

One-dimensional unsteady flow model including weir flow simulation is studied. Applicabilities of both the single channel model with local treatment of the weir overflow, and the looped-network model are studied using a test problem. It is shown that various type of weir flows including reverse flows are successfully simulated. Flow discontinuity due to the high crest elevation can also be simulated. The reverse free-flowing overflow can be simulated by the single-channel model as well as by the looped-network model.

The cost of a looped pipe network is affected by a set of loop flows. The mathematical model for optimizing the looped pipe network is expressed in the optimal set of loop flows to apply to a stochastic optimization method. Because the feasible region of the looped pipe network problem is nonconvex with multiple local optima, the Modified Stochastic Probing Method is suggested to efficiently search the feasible region. The method consists of two phase: i) a global search phase(the stochastic probing method) and ii) a local search phase(the nearest neighbor method). While the global search sequentially improves a local minimum, the local search escapes out of a local minimum trapped in the global search phase and also refines a final solution. In order to test the method, a standard test problem from the literature is considered for the optimal design of the paralled expansion of an existing network. The optimal solutions thus found have significantly smaller costs than the ones reported previously by other researchers.

In this study, Ant Colony Algorithm(ACO) was used for optimal model. ACO which are metaheuristic algorithm for combinatorial optimization problem are inspired by the fact that ants are able to find the shortest route between their nest and food source. For applying the model to water distribution systems, pipes, tanks(reservoirs), pump construction and pump operation cost were considered as object function and pressure at each node and reservoir level were considered as constraints. Modified model from Ostfeld and Tubaltzev(2008) was verified by applying 2-Looped, Hanoi and Ostfeld's networks. And sensitivity analysis about ant number, number of ants in a best group and pheromone decrease rate was accomplished. After the verification, it was applied to real water network from S water treatment plant. As a result of the analysis, in the Two-looped network, the best design cost was found to $419,000 and in the Hanoi network, the best design cost was calculated to $6,164,384, and in the Ostfeld's network, the best design cost was found to $3,525,096. These are almost equal or better result compared with previous researches. Last, the cost of optimal design for real network, was found for 66 billion dollar that is 8.8 % lower than before. In addition, optimal diameter for aged pipes was found in this study and the 5 of 8 aged pipes were changed the diameter. Through this result, pipe construction cost reduction was found to 11 percent lower than before. And to conclusion, The least cost design model on water distribution system was developed and verified successfully in this study and it will be very useful not only optimal pipe change plan but optimization plan for whole water distribution system.

A quasi-two-dimensional model for simulating the flood plain flow is developed. The model consists, in general, of a multiply-connected network which combines the main channel and two-dimensional flood plain cells. The main channel flow is described by the Saint Venant equations for one-dimensional unsteady flow, and the flood plain flow by the cell continuity and river-or weir-type stage-discharge relations between flood plain cells. The implicit algorithm for unsteady flow in looped channel network is extended to incorporate the flood plain flow. To verify the performance of the model, it is applied to three test problems, and sensitivities to various model parameters are analyzed. It turns out that the present model gives more accurate result than that by Cunge (1975) as the shape of cross section becomes more complex and irregular. Not only the inundation of water from the main channel but the return flow from the flood plain is successfully simulated.

A self-sensing magnetorheological (MR) damper with embedded piezoelectric force sensor has recently been devised to facilitate real-time close-looped control of structural vibration in a simple and reliable manner. The development and characterization of the self-sensing MR damper are presented based on experimental work, which demonstrates its reliable force sensing and controllable damping capabilities. With the use of experimental data acquired under harmonic loading, a nonparametric dynamic model is formulated to portray the nonlinear behaviors of the self-sensing MR damper based on NARX modeling and neural network techniques. The Bayesian regularization is adopted in the network training procedure to eschew overfitting problem and enhance generalization. Verification results indicate that the developed NARX network model accurately describes the forward dynamics of the self-sensing MR damper and has superior prediction performance and generalization capability over a Bouc-Wen parametric model.

Most existing progression bandwidth models maximize the single or multi weighted sum of bandwidths in the both directions to improve traffic mobility on an arterial, but they cannot be applied to general networks. Even though a few models formulating a looped network problem cannot be applied to networks have not loops. Also they have some defects in optimizing phase sequences. Therefore, the objective of this study is to develope a mathematical formulation of the synchronization problem for a general traffic network. The goal is achieved successfully by introducing the signal phasing for each movement and expanding the mixed integer linear programming of MAXBAND. The experiments indicate that the proposed model can formulate the general traffic network problem mere efficiently than any other model. In conclusion, this model may optimize signal time to smooth progression in the general networks.

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.

Rainfall falling in the impervious area of the cities flows over the surface and into the stormwater pipe networks to be discharged from the catchment. Therefore, it is very important to determine the size of stormwater pipes based on the peak discharge to mitigate urban flood. Climate change causes the severe rainfall in the small area, then the peak rainfall can not be discharged due to the capacity of the stormwater pipes and causes the urban flood for the short time periods. To mitigate these type of flood, the large stormwater pipes have to be constructed. However, the economic factor is also very important to design the stormwater pipe networks. In this study, 4 urban catchments were selected from the frequently flooded cities. Rainfall data from Seoul and Busan weather stations were applied to calculate runoff from the catchments using SWMM model. The characteristics of the peak runoff were analyzed using linear regression model and the 95% confidence interval and the coefficient of variation was calculated. The drainage density was calculated and the runoff characteristics were analyzed. As a result, the drainage density were depended on the structure of stormwater pipe network whether the structures are dendritic or looped. As the drainage density become higher, the runoff could be predicted more accurately. it is because the possibility of flooding caused by the capacity of stormwater pipes is decreased when the drainage density is high. It would be very efficient if the structure of stormwater pipe network is considered when the network is designed.

최근 기후변화에 따른 국지성 집중호우 및 돌발홍수 증가로 도심지역에 많은 침수 피해가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 내외수에 영향을 받는 도시 중소하천의 침수 저감을 위하여 침수 예측모형에 적용 가능한 수리학적 계산모형을 개발하는 것이다. 일반적으로 자연하천은 수지형 수계가 대부분이며, 도시 우수관로와 관계배수 시스템 등은 폐합형 수계에 포함되어 수지형 계산모형으로는 도시 중소하천의 유출 모의를 할 수 없다. 폐합형 수계의 계산모형은 수지형에 비해 복잡하지만, 적용대상 수계가 폐합형이 아닌 경우에도 합류점의 유입량을 처리하기가 편리하고, 역방향의 월류 흐름이 존재하는 감조하천에서의 월류 흐름 모의가 가능한 장점을 갖고 있어 도시 내배수 시스템은 물론 자연하천에도 적용 할 수 있다. 본 모형은 절점, 수로 및 계산점으로 구성되는데 동력학적 방법인 1차원 Saint-Venant의 연속 방정식과 운동량 방정식에 수치해법을 이용하여 구하고자 하는 시간과 지점의 수위와 유량을 계산할 수 있게 구성하였다. 수치해법으로는 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 유한차분법 중 안정성과 정확성이 우수한 것으로 평가된 Preissmann의 4점 음해법으로 차분방정식에 Newton-Raphson 방법을 사용하여 유량과 수위 보정치에 Double Sweep 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 유한차분법은 안정성 문제를 수반할 수 있기에 시간 증분이 작을수록 Courant 조건을 만족할 수 있다. 모형 비교 검증을 위하여 동력학적 방법을 적용한 대표적인 폐합형 수계모형인 EPA SWMM을 지원하는 CHI사의 PC-SWMM 프로그램을 이용하여 가상의 폐합 수계를 구축하였다. 일반적으로 상류지점의 경계조건은 하류로 추적될 입력 자료로써, 상류지점과 합류지점은 유입되는 유량값을 그리고 하류지점은 유출되는 수위값을 경계조건으로 입력하였다. 운동량방정식의 에너지 경사와 마찰경사 항에 포함된 조도계수는 변화량에 중요한 물리적 요소이지만, 고정 상수값인 0.03을 적용하여 검증에 용의하도록 하였다. 구축된 모형과 PC-SWWM을 통해 산출된 계산점별 수위와 유량에 RMS 오차를 비교한 결과 만족할만한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 향후 내외수를 연계에 침수예측모형에 적용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
