Abstract

해안구조물 설계시 허용평균월파량은 설계요소중의 하나이며, 구조물의 마루높이는 구조물의 안전, 보행자의 안전 및 운영 등에 요구되는 월파량 이하가 되도록 하여야 한다. 최근 들어 보다 안전한 설계를 위해 평균월파량보다 개별 최대월파량을 기준으로 적용하자는 제안이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 비쇄파조건에서 개별 최대월파량에 대한 정보를 제공하고자 하는 것이며, 경사식구조물의 기하학적 형상을 고려안 2차원 수리모형실험을 수행하였다. 또한 실험을 위해 새로운 계측방법을 고안하였다. 실험결과를 이용하여 평균월파량에 기반하여 개별 최대월파량을 산정할 수 있는 경험식을 제안하였다. 그리고 피복재 어깨폭에 따른 평균월파량의 저감효과에 대해서도 검토하였다.

Normally, allowable mean overtopping discharge is used as a design parameter for coastal structures. The crest elevation of a structure must ensure wave overtopping discharge within acceptable limits for structural safety and the safety of pedestrians, vehicles, operations, and so on. Some researchers have alternatively proposed using the maximum individual wave overtopping volumes as design criteria during a design storm, since these can provide a better design measure than the mean overtopping rate. This study contributes to the knowledge on maximum individual overtopping volumes in Rayleigh-distributed wave conditions. Two-dimensional physical model tests on typical rubble mound structure geometries were performed, and the new measurement method for individual overtopping was adopted. An empirical formula was proposed to predict the maximum individual overtopping volumes based on the mean overtopping rate, and the reduction effects by the armor crest width on the mean wave overtopping discharge were assessed.
