Abstract

This study investigates the evolution processes of alternate bars in the channel with bank stability by vegetation by laboratory experiment. Laboratory experiments are conducted to elucidate the behavior of alternate bars by the influence of riparian vegetation on the rivers with erodible banks. To control bank stability of the channel, the actual vegetation, alfalfa, is grown by adjusting the density of alfalfa on the flood plain. As the vegetation density increases in the flood plain, the bank erosion rates and the channel widening rates decrease and the bank stability increases. The alternate bars migrate slow downstream over time. Moreover, the bars in a channel with strong banks migrate rapidly, which is related with the aspect ratio, that is, width to depth ratio. The bar wavelength decrease with vegetation density. Our laboratory experiments show that the behavior of bars differ according to bank strength.

본 연구에서는 홍수터 식생에 의한 하안의 안정성을 고려하여 하도에서 사주의 거동과 하도의 지형변화 적응과정을 실내실험을 수행하여 분석하였다. 초기 직류하도에서 하안침식이 발생하고 하폭이 증가한다. 하폭 대 수심의 비가 증가한 후에, 교호사주가 발달하고, 하류로 이동한다. 시간이 증가함에 따라, 사주의 이동속도는 감소하고 사주의 파장은 증가한다. 홍수터에서 식생 밀도가 증가함에 따라, 하안침식율은 감소한다. 그러나 사주의 이동속도는 증가한다. 이는 하안의 안정성 변화가 사주의 이동속도에 영향을 주기 때문이다. 하폭이 증가하고 수심이 감소하면서 무차원 소류력인 Shield Number는 증가하며, 사주의 이동속도도 증가한다. 이는 또한 이동하는 교호사주와 선택적 침식에 의해 발생한 불규칙한 하안 사이에 작용하는 강제효과 때문에 하안의 안정성이 작은 하도에서 사주의 이동속도는 감소한다. 시간이 증가함에 따라 사주의 파장은 증가한다. 사주의 파장이 증가하면서 사주의 이동속도는 감소한다.
