The simulation results using i- V relationship of non-Darcy flow through tide embankment by Li et al.(1998) agree well to the observed data. The use of i- V relationship is applicable to the engineering practice and the correct input of porosity is necessary. The non-Darcy flow based on the pipe flow and Taylor's definition for mean hydraulics radius in rockfill material is applicable to the block and caisson materials. The correct calculation of flow through tide embankment enables the accurate calculation of velocity at final closing gap and the prediction of inner water level after tide embankment construction as well.

Non-Darcy흐름에 따른 호안제체의 흐름과 배수갑문을 통한 유출입 특성을 고려한 체절구간의 수리특성분석 도형에 의한 해석결과는 실측자료와 비교적 잘 일치하여 개발된 모형의 적용성이 있음을 보여주었다. 실측치와 비교한 계산결과는 본간(1958) 식에 의한 계산이 나(1987)에 의한 방법보다 비교적 정확하게 계산할 수 있음을 보여주었다. 아울러 완전 또는 불완전 월류의 구분이 없이 잠수도에 의한 계산을 통해서 하나의 유량계수 관계곡선을 사용하여 간편하게 사용할 수 있는 나 식의 사용성을 보여 주었다. 본간 식과 나 식에 의한 계산 값이 실측치보다는 유출입 특성이 크게 나타나고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 현장에서의 체절구간의 불규칙적인 단면 양상을 감안한 유량계수의 조정이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 일반적으로 체절구간의 수리특성의 분석을 위해서 제체구간 유량의 고려는 Darcy 흐름에 기초하여 분석한 것이 지금까지의 분석이다. 제체를 통과는 유량과 개방구간을 통과하는 유량의 비가 체절구간이 좁을수록 크게 나타나 제체의 정확한 유출임 특성을 고려한 체절구간의 수리특성을 분석해야할 필요가 있음을 확인하였다.

The simulation results of final closing by the developed model considering the flows through tide embankment of non-Darcy and through sluice gate agree well to the observed data which shows the model applicability. In comparative analysis with observed data, the simulation results by Homma(1958) are more accurate than those by Na(1987). The free flow equation with discharge coefficient, regardless of free or submerged flows, by Na based on the submergence ratio is applicable to the engineering practices. Because two simulated discharges are greater than the actual one, the correction of discharge coefficients reflecting the irregular section of actual closing gap situation is necessary. In the hydraulic analysis of final closing, the flow through tide embankment has been generally analysed by Darcy. Hydraulic analysis by the correct discharge through tide embankment of non-Darcy flow is necessary, because the ratio between flows through tide embankment and closing gap is relatively great at final closing.

Rocks are dumped to soft marine ground in order to improve trafficability and construction conditions in the tideland reclamation construction sites. Though this rock layer under earth fill has caused in a serious seepage problems after construction, seepage behaviors of this embankment structure is not correctly investigated. Water flow through rock layers is, in general, known as Non-Darcy's flow. However, the embedded rock layer under earth fill is not known whether its flow is governed by Darcy's or Non-Darcy's law. Therefore, a numerical analysis, laboratory model test and filed investigations were performed for analyzing the those seepage characteristics in this research. Results show that there is significance of $95\%$ of confidence between observed heads and seepage rates, and the calculated ones by SAMTLE which is developed under the assumption that the water flows through the two-layer system obey the Darcy's flow. And after operating the hydraulic gradient(i) of $0.10\~0.55$ upon laboratory model, these seepage characteristics of the embedded rock layer show that Reynolds Numbers are less than 10 and the relationship between these velocities of rock layer(v) and hydraulic gradients(i) is linearly proportional with more than 0.79 of the coefficient of correlation $(R^2)$. And the Reynolds Number of the velocity calculated by the relation of v=ki in the embedded rock layer of OO sea dike is $1\~6$. It shows also laminar flow. Based on these results, it is concluded that the seepage characteristics of embedded rock layer under earth fill can be laminar and Darcy's flow.

산지계곡에는 큰 자갈이나 호박돌이 무더기로 퇴적되어 있어서 대규모 공극을 구성한다. 호우시 이 돌무더기 내부에 빠른 흐름이 형성되고 이에 따른 퇴적사면의 급격한 변동이 발생하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 대공극 매질의 흐름은 산지계곡에 퇴적된 균일 직경을 가진 구형 입자로 구성된 대규모 공극 매질을 구성하고, 비 Darcy 흐름의 유속에 미치는 입경의 영향을 수리실험으로 조사하였다. 실험에 사용된 구형 입자는 크기가 15.5mm, 25mm, 36.5mm인 유리구슬이고, 조성된 매질의 공극율은 Table 1과 같으며, 실험에서 침투거리는 40cm로 하였다. 실험유량은 0.98~15.41 t/s이고 입자 Reynolds 수는 120~4,580의 범위였다. 동수경사가 증가하면 매질의 단면평균 유속이 비선형적으로 증가하였다. 입경이 작을수록 유속과 동수경사 사이의 비선형적 경향이 더 크다(Fig.1). 동일한 동수경사에서 매질의 입경이 클수록 유속이 빠르게 나타났다.

As the flow velocity and Reynolds number increase in rockfill porous media, the flow deviates from Darcy conditions. In this study, the permeability tests of rock column specimen and laboratory gabion weir model were carried out to investigate a head loss behaviour of flow through rockfill deposition in small river artificial recharge. Through column test, the nonlinear relationships between flow velocity and hydraulic gradient and coefficients were determined and the correlation formula of hydraulic mean radius and coefficients was proposed. The flow velocities and discharges in voids estimated by proposed equations were well matched with the measured values of laboratory gabion weir model.

A 1D numerical model for steady flow, based on the energy equation, was developed for natural rivers with emergent vegetations on floodplains and banks. The friction slope was determined by the friction law of Darcy-Weisbach. The composite friction factor of the each cross section was calculated by considering bottom roughness of the main channel and the floodplains, the flow resistance of vegetations, the apparent shear stress and the flow resistance caused by the momentum transfer between vegetated areas and non-vegetated areas. The interface friction factor caused by flow interaction was calculated by empirical formulas of Mertens and Nuding. In order to verify the accuracy of the suggested model, water surface elevations were calculated by using imaginary compound channels and the results of calculations were compared with that of the HEC-RAS. The sensitivity analysis was performed to confirm changed friction factors by vegetations density etc. The suggested model was applied to the reach of the Enz River in Germany, and estimated water surface elevations of the Enz River were compared with measured water surface elevations. This model could acceptably compute not only water surface elevations with low discharge but also that with high discharge. So, the suggested model in this study verified the applicability in natural rivers with emergent vegetations.

A micro-mechanical pipe network model with the shape of a cube was developed to simulate the behavior of fluid flow through a porous medium. The fluid-flow mechanism through the cubic pipe network channels was defined mainly by introducing a well-known percolation theory (Stauffer and Aharony, 1994). A non-uniform flow generally appeared because all of the pipe diameters were allocated individually in a stochastic manner based on a given pore-size distribution curve and porosity. Fluid was supplied to one surface of the pipe network under a certain driving pressure head and allowed to percolate through the pipe networks. A percolation condition defined by capillary pressure with respect to each pipe diameter was applied first to all of the network pipes. That is, depending on pipe diameter, the fluid may or may not penetrate a specific pipe. Once pore pressures had reached equilibrium and steady-state flow had been attained throughout the network system, Darcy's law was used to compute the resultant permeability. This study investigated the sensitivity of network size to permeability calculations in order to find out the optimum network size which would be used for all the network modelling in this study. Mean pore size and pore size distribution curve obtained from field are used to define each of pipe sizes as being representative of actual oil sites. The calculated and measured permeabilities are in good agreement.

When yields the mean velocity of the closed conduit which is used generally, it is available to use Darcy Weisbach Friction Loss Head equation. But, it is inconvenient very because Friction Loss coefficient f is the function of Reynolds Number and Relative roughness (${\varepsilon}$/d). So, it is demanded more convenient equation to estimate. In order to prove the reliability and an accuracy of Chiu's velocity equation from the research which sees hereupon, proved agreement very well about measured velocity measurement data by using Laser velocimeter which is a non-insertion velocity measuring equipment from the closed conduit (Laser Doppler Velocimeter: LDV) and an insertion velocity measuring equipment and the Pitot tube which is a supersonic flow meter (Transit-Time Flowmeters). By proving theoretical linear-relation between maximum velocity and mean velocity in laboratory flume without increase and decrease of discharge, the equilibrium state of velocity in the closed conduit which reachs to equilibrium state corresponding to entropy parameter M value has a trend maintaining consistently this state. If entropy M value which is representing one section is determinated, mean velocity can be gotten only by measuring the velocity in the point appearing the maximum velocity. So, it has been proved to estimate simply discharge and it indicates that this method can be a theoretical way, which is the most important in the future, when designing, managing and operating the closed conduit.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the methodology for the computation of uplift pressure and discharge of the seepage flow under gravity dam. A 3-dimensional FDM model is developed for this purpose and this model can simulate the saturated Darcian flow in heterogeneous media. For the verification of the numeric model, test simulation has been executed and the mass balance has been checked. The error does not exceed 3%. Using the developed model, The uplift pressure and seepage flow discharge under gravity dam has been calculated. The uplift pressure shows the similar pattern, comparing with the result of flow-net method. As the length of grout curtain increases, the uplift pressure decreases linearly, but the seepage flow discharge shows the non-linear decreasing pattern. The coefficients of the formulas in the dam-design criteria have been analysed, and ${\alpha}=1/3$ corresponds to the value when the length of curtain grout is 70% of the aquifer height. The uplift pressure near the pressure relief drain has the big curvature vertically and horizontally. The developed model in this study can be used for the evaluation of the effects of seepage flow under gravity dam.
