초록

에너지 수요의 증가 및 에너지 탐사와 연관되어 해저 지반의 조사가 증가하고 있다. 해수면 2100m 해저 110m 아래에서 얻어진 압력 코어 시료의 메탄 하이드레이트 생산 시험 후 얻어진 사료를 이용하여 울릉 분지 심해토의 지반공학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기본 토성, 광물학적 특성, 화학 조성, 그리고 미세구조 관찰을 위하여 토성 실험, XRD, 그리고 SEM을 실시하였다. 또한, 멀티 센서 압밀셀을 이용하여 두 시료의 압축성, 전단파 및 전자기파 파악하였다. 강도특성은 직접전단실험 이용하여 산정되었다. 주요 광물로는 카오리나이트, 일라이트, 크로라이트(chlorite), 그리고 캘싸이트(calcite)가 관찰되었다. SEM 결과 잘 발달된 내 외부 간극 구조가 관찰되었다. 수직유효응력의 증가에 따라 전단파 속도, 전기비저항, 실수 유전율, 그리고 전기전도도는 이중선형 거동을 보였다. 직접전단실험으로 얻은 마찰각은 약 $21^{\circ}$로 선행연구와 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 본 연구는 가스 하이드레이트와 같은 에너지 자원의 개발 및 새로운 지반공학적 영역의 확보를 위하여 심해 퇴적토의 거동 이해의 중요성을 보여준다.

There has been an increase in the investigation of deep sea sediments with a consequent increase in the amount of energy required to undertake these investigations. The geotechnical characteristics of Ulleung Basin sediment are explored by using depressurized specimens following methane production tests carried out on pressured core samples obtained at 2,100 m water depth and 110 m below sea floor. Geotechnical index tests, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscope are conducted to identify the geotechnical index parameters, clay mineralogy, chemical composition, and microstructure of the sediments. Compressibility, and elastic and electromagnetic wave parameters are investigated for two samples by using a multi sensing instrumented oedometer cell. The strength chatracteristics are obtained by the direct shear tests. The dominant clay minerals are mostly kaolinite, illite, chlorite, and calcite. The SEM shows a well-developed flocculated structure of the microfossil. Void ratio, electrical resistivity, real permittivity, conductivity, and shear wave velocity show bi-linear behavior with the effective vertical stress: as the vertical effective stress increases. The friction angle obtained by the direct shear test is about $21^{\circ}$, which is similar to the value observed in the Ulleung Basin sediments. This study shows that the understanding of the behavior acting on the diatomaceous marine sediment is important because it often maintains the useful energy resources such as gas hydrate and so will be the new engineering field in the next generation.
