Abstract

Many shorelines are facing the beach erosion. Considering the climate change and the increment of coastal population, the erosion problem could be accelerated. To address this issue, developing a sediment transport model for rapidly predicting terrain change is crucial. In this study, a sediment transport model based on GPU parallel arithmetic was introduced, and it was supposed to simulate the terrain change well with a higher computing speed compared to the CPU based model. We also aim to investigate the model performance and the GPU computational efficiency. We applied several dam break cases to verified model, and we found that the simulated results were close to the observed results. The computational efficiency of GPU was defined by comparing operation time of CPU based model, and it showed that the GPU based model were more efficient than the CPU based model.

전 세계적으로 연안침식 문제가 대두됨에 따라 많은 해안선이 지형변화를 겪고 있다. 기후변화 및 해안인구증가로 미루어 볼 때 그 현상은 가속화될 수 있으며, 이에 대응하기 위해 신속하게 지형변화를 모의할 수 있는 유사이송 예측모형 개발의 중요성이 강조된다. 본 연구에서는 GPU (Graphics Processing Unit)를 기반으로 한 유사이송 예측모형을 제안하였으며, GPU 병렬연산을 활용함으로써 기존의 CPU 기반모형 대비 더욱 개선된 속도로 지형변화를 모의할 수 있도록 모형이 개발되었다. 개발된 모형에 대해 수치모형 성능과 GPU 연산효율에 초점을 맞추어 분석을 수행하였다. 모형의 성능검증을 위해 Dam-break 수리실험에 대해 수치모의를 수행하였으며, 모의결과가 관측된 실험데이터와 잘 일치하는 것을 확인하였다. GPU 연산효율은 CPU 기반모형과 수치모의 연산시간을 비교하여 분석하였으며, 개발된 GPU 기반모형이 연산시간의 효율이 상당히 우수한 것으로 확인되었다.
