Sand dam is a successful water harvesting method in mountainous areas with ephemeral rivers. The success is dependent on several factors including material type, hydrogeology, slope, riverbed thickness, groundwater recharge, and streamflow. In this study, the effect of a sand dam on the groundwater level in the Chuncheon area, South Korea was assessed using the MODFLOW model. Using the model, multiple scenarios were tested to understand the groundwater head before and after the construction of the sand dam. The effect of groundwater abstraction before and after sand dam construction and the sand material type were also assessed. The results show, the groundwater level increases substantially after the application of a sand dam. The comparison of model outputs, simulated groundwater head before and after sand dam application with and without pumping well, shows a clear difference in the head. The material type has also an effect on the groundwater head. As the conductivity of the material increases, the head showed a significant rise.

Sand dam is a flow barrier commonly built on small or medium size sandy rivers to accumulate sand and store excess water for later use or increase the water table. The effectiveness of sand dam in increasing the water table and the amount of extractable groundwater is tested using numerical models. Two models are developed to test the hypothesis. The first model is to simulate the groundwater flow in a pseudo-natural aquifer system with the hydraulically connected river. The second model, a modified version of the first model, is constructed with a sand dam, which raises the riverbed by 2 m. In both models, the effect of groundwater abstraction is tested by varying the pumping rate. As the model results show the groundwater after the construction of the sand dam has increased significantly and the amount of extractable groundwater is also increased by many folds. Most importantly, in the second model, unlike the pseudo-natural aquifer system, the groundwater abstraction does not have a significant effect on the water table.

샌드댐(Sand dam)은 계곡하천을 가로지르는 보에 의해 모래가 쌓이고 그 공극속으로 계곡수가 저장되어 수위가 높아지면서 가뭄때 보조 수자원으로 활용토록 하는 구조물이다. 주로 아프리카 지역 등 건조지역에서 활용되는 이 구조물은 우리나라에는 설치된 사례가 없으며 계곡토석류를 방지하는 일부 사방댐에서 취수를 하는 경우는 찾아볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 춘천 서상리 계곡부를 대상으로 기존 취수보 하류부에 샌드댐을 설치하였을 때 물공급 효과를 평가하고자 한다. 이를 위해 유역수문모형과 저수지 추적 모형을 연계한 모델링을 수행하였으며 샌드댐의 규모와 취수량 등에 따른 댐체 내의 수위, 저류량, 방류량의 변화를 케이스별로 제시하였다. 적용 결과 샌드댐 설치로 인한 물공급 능력이 95% 신뢰도에서 제고되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 하루 50톤의 물공급을 목표로 하였을 경우 L × B × H_o = 25 m × 15 m × 1 m 규모로 설치하고, 상류 취수보와 하류 샌드댐 취수량을 (Q₁, Q₂) = (30, 20), (35, 15) ㎥/day로 운영할 때가 가장 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

CFRD (Concrete Faced Rockfill Dam) has been world-widely constructed due to a lot of advantages compared with rockfill dam and recently, sand/gravel materials, instead of crushed rock materials, are also utilized as a main rockfill material to overcome geological and environmental problems. In this paper, the process of water infiltration into the originally unsaturated sand/gravel-fill dam is studied using two-dimensional saturated-unsaturated seepage theory. According to the results of seepage analysis, if the effective drainage zone is installed in the dam, the reservoir water infiltrate into the dam along a downward flow path towards the lower drainage area. The main body constructed with sand/gravel materials, therefore, remains unsaturated.

This study investigated changes of hydrology, soil characteristics, riparian vegetation communities, and geomorphology in sandbars before and after sand-mining to determine the effect of sand-mining at upstream of Guemgang and Bochungcheon streams in Korea. Sand-mining events affected the mining area. They supplied organic matters and nutrients during flood. Sediment deposition caused soil texture change and expansion of vegetation area. However, riverbeds were stabilized after the disturbance. According to the analyses of aerial photographs, the vegetation area was significantly expanded in both dam-regulated streams and dam-unregulated streams after sand-mining. Willow shrubs advanced in disturbed area at an average of 10 years after sand-mining. It took willows trees 10.6 years to become dominant communities. Therefore, it took a total of 20.6 years for new riparian forest to form in sandbar after sand-mining. Our results confirmed that stream flow condition were dependent on vegetation recruitment in dam-regulated streams and dam-unregulated streams. For willow recruitment in unregulated streams, calculation of water level below dimensionless bed shear stress is important because low water level variation is a limiting factor of vegetation recruitment.

본 연구에서는 안동댐 하류 하천을 대상으로 댐 건설에 의해 하천의 변화에 미치는 영향을 파악하고, 모래사주의 복원 및 재현 방안을 검토 하였다. 안동댐과 임하댐의 영향으로 댐 하류 하천에서 하상이 저하되고 하상토의 평균 입경이 굵어지는 특성을 보여주고 있으며, 저수로의 수가 증가하였다. 안동댐 건설 후에는 식생의 면적이 약간 증가하고 있으나, 임하댐이 건설되면서부터 식생의 면적이 급격하게 증가되고 있다. 댐 건설에 의해 치수안전도는 재현기간을 비교하여 5에서 10배정도 증가되고, 댐 건설 전과 후의 강턱유량은 2,857 $m^3/s$에서 580 $m^3/s$로 감소되었다. 또한 평균 하도 폭 및 경사를 이용한 등류조건에서는 댐 건설 전과 후의 강턱유량에 대한 중규모 하상형태의 영역구분은 단열사주와 복렬사주의 중간 영역으로부터 완전한 복렬사주 영역으로 변화하였다. 하상변동 계산에서는 댐 건설 전에 명확한 사주 및 유로가 형성되었고, 댐 건설 후에는 망상유로가 형성되었으며, 댐 건설로 인한 유량의 변화에 의해 사주형상이 변화되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Dam construction in a river can change its hydrological pattern and trap sediments, which results in ecological changes in the downstream. It is a common phenomenon in the downstream of dams to have decreased sediment flow and increased periphyton. Artificial floods and sediment application are suggested as mitigation practices in order to simulate natural process of flood; transporting sediment and sloughing periphyton off. In this study the effects of artificial floods on periphyton were examined by applying sand artificially and discharging water from a dam (Yangyang Dam, Korea). The study area has been suffering from turbidity problems caused by shore erosion of the dam. The accumulation of inorganic sediments and increase of periphyton on the river bottom are the major factors of habitat deterioration in the downstream reaches. Artificial flood and artificial addition of sand was performed in summer and the effects were measured. Piles of applied sands were washed off easily by discharge and it enhanced the periphyton sloughing effect. The removal efficiency of periphyton was 50 ~ 80% within the 2 km reach from the dam. In conclusion artificial floods and sand application can be a good mitigation measure for the habitat rehabilitation after a dam construction in streams.

Dams are vital infrastructures that are expected to maintain their stability during seismic excitations. Accordingly, cemented material dams are an emerging type, which are being increasingly used around the world owing to benefiting from advantages of both earth-fill and concrete gravity dams, which should be designed safely when subjected to strong ground motion. In the present paper, the seismic performance of a cemented sand and gravel (CSG) dam is assessed using incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method by accounting for two failure modes of tension cracking and base joint sliding considering the dam-reservoir-foundation interactions. To take the seismic uncertainties into account, the dam is analyzed under a suite of ground motion records and then, the effect of friction angle for base sliding as well as deformability of the foundation are investigated on the response of dam. To carry out the analyses, the Cindere dam in Turkey is selected as a case study, and various limit states corresponding to seismic performance levels of the dam are determined aiming to estimate the seismic fragilities. Based on the results, sliding of the Cindere dam could be serious under the maximum credible earthquake (MCE). Besides, dam faces are mostly to be cracked under such level of intensity. Moreover, the results indicate that as friction angle increases, probability of sliding between dam and foundation is reduced whereas, increases tensile cracking. Lastly, it is observed that foundation stiffening increases the probability of dam sliding but, reduces the tensile damage in the dam body.
