Concrete structures are commonly exposed to freezing-thawing condition. This freezing-thawing action changes the pore structure of concrete, and it can reduce the durability of concrete. In this study, the change of the internal pore structure and durability of concrete due to freezing-thawing action are investigated. According to results, the excellent durability records were reported by the existing evaluation methods for all mixes. However, the pores, 50~100nm size in diameter, are increased in concrete specimens exposed to freezing-thawing action, and the chloride penetration resistance was significantly reduced. The linear relationship between pore structure and chloride penetration resistance was shown in water cured concrete. Meanwhile, the linear relationship was decreased when concrete is exposed to freezing-thawing condition. It is desirable to review the criterion of durability evaluation for concrete specimens exposed to freezing-fthawing and chloride attack condition, simultaneously.

The dynamic properties of soils are affected by parameters like, gradation characteristics, void ratio, confining pressure, etc. . This study mainly investigated experimentally the effect of gradation on the dynamic properties of sands with the effect of void ratio and confining pressure. Test results showed that shear modulus/damping ratio was increased/decreased with the decrease of void ratio and with the increase of confining pressure. When the fine content increased, shear modulus/damping ratio was decreased/increased. This study explained this phenomenon by the concept of the "effective number of contacts" and the "dead space".ot;dead space".uot;.

Recently, in Korea, there has been an increasing number of research papers published which are to improve durability of concrete, particularly by analyzing correlation between diffusivity of chloride and porosity/pore size distribution. In these studies, such test methods as mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP), gas adsorption or image analysis method are used to analyze the microstructure of materials while MIP is most widely used for concrete. This study analyzes the results of porosity and pore size distribution of paste and concrete adding fly ash or blast furnace slag by using MIP equipment which is widely used for determining micro-porosity structure of cementitious materials. A variation in porosity and pore size distribution at the curing day 3, 7 and 28 has been observed by using MIP equipment for cement paste 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60% of W/C when using $300kg/m^3$ of cement, 35%, 45%, 55% of W/C when replaced 60% with blast-furnace slag, and 35%, 45%, 55% of W/C when replaced 30% with fly ash. For long-term water cured normal OPC concrete and mixed concrete replaced 60% with blast-furnace slag powder, micro-structure of the sample has been analyzed by using MIP equipment when W/C indicated 40%, 45%, 50% respectively and the binder varied $300kg/m^3$, $350kg/m^3$, $400kg/m^3$, and $450kg/m^3$.

The filtration effects of glass membrane filters and hollow fiber membranes with different pore size to prevent the haze of a commercial foxtail millet Yakju were investigated. The most particles(haze precusors) present in the Yakju were removed by using 1.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$ glass membrane filter. In case of using 0.45$\mu\textrm{m}$ hollow fiber membrane system, the permeate flux on the Yakju filtration was calculated to 342.8 lmh. During the 3 month storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ and room temperature for each 48 hrs in turn, alittle fine haze was observed from the Yakju even if it was filtered by using 0.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ glass membrane filter. Anything of haze was, however, observed from the Yakju filtered by using all of hollow fiber membranes. Therefore, the 0.45$\mu\textrm{m}$ hollow fiber membrane system was effective as a final filtration process of the Yakju.

급경사 산지하천은 호우 시 퇴적 하상이 붕괴하여 하천 유사량을 급격히 증가시키는 계곡형 토석류가 발생하고 도로와 교량에 피해를 일으키기도 한다. 이러한 하천재해를 저감하기 위하여 돌망태 낙차공을 설치하여 하상 안정을 강화하고 급경사에 따른 유수에너지를 줄일 수 있다. 급경사 하상에 설치한 돌망태 낙차공은 하류부 하상의 국부세굴에 따른 파괴위험이 완경사 하상의 경우에 비하여 높으므로 이를 줄이기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 광폭경사조절 개수로에 돌망태 낙차공을 설치하고 낙차공의 채움재가 복류의 특성에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 수리실험을 하였다. 수리실험에서는 최대 20º까지 경사를 조절할 수 있는 길이 1.44m, 폭 0.14m인 직사각형 단면 개수로에 SUS304 구슬을 사용하여 하상과 돌망태 낙차공을 설치하고 실험하였다. 구슬은 크기에 따라 작은구슬(10.31mm), 중간구슬(15.08mm), 큰구슬(20.63mm)을 사용하고, 하상에는 작은구슬을 깔았다. 낙차공의 크기는 길이 16cm이고 폭과 높이는 12cm이며, 돌망태는 작은구슬을 사용한 단일돌망태와 구슬 크기를 달리한 계층돌망태로 구분하였다. 계층돌망태의 상층은 작은구슬, 중층은 중간구슬, 하층은 큰구슬이 채움재로 사용되었다. 단일돌망태의 공극율은 0.399이고 계층돌망태의 공극률은 상층 0.393, 중층 0.517, 하층 0.54이다. 실험유량의 변화는 낙차공 하단부에서 표면류가 발생하지 않는 범위로 한정하였다. 낙차공 하단에서 상류 68cm 지점의 소류력과 낙차공 내부 복류의 수면경사를 측정하였다. 그 결과 단일돌망태보다 계층돌망태가 소류력과 수면경사가 더 작은 것으로 나타났으며 돌망태의 공극을 통한 통수능 차이 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문에서는 MBR 공정 유출수의 화학응집에 따른 특성을 알아보고자 A2O공정 하수처리수를 대상으로 막의 공극 크기와 약품 교반시간 및 응집 침전시간에 따른 인 제거 효율을 조사하였다. 막 여과 전후의 시료에 대한 응집실험결과 막 여과 전후의 응집제 투입에 따른 인 제거효율은 막 여과 전 90%와 비교했을 때 각각 74.5, 71.2, 62.6%로 최고 37.4%까지 큰 차이를 보였으며 이것은 막 여과로 인하여 시료 내 존재하는 콜로이드성 물질들의 입자 크기가 작아져 응집반응을 위한 응집핵 형성에 영향을 주었기 때문이며 막의 공극 크기가 작을수록 인 제거 효율도 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 완속교반과 침전시간을 길게 할수록 인 제거 효율이 증가하였다. 침전시간이 10분일 경우는 인 제거 효율이 막 여과 후의 시료에 대해서 각각 45.3, 35.1, 52.0%로 인 제거가 상당히 불안정하였고 60분일 경우에는 각각 83.4, 85.1, 80.7%로 탁월한 인 제거가 일어난 것을 알 수 있었다.

고주파 대역의 소오나를 이용하여 해저면 상태, 즉 해저면 거칠기 및 비균질성의 변화에 따른 음파 산란 영향을 파악하기 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 지음향 요소 중, 평균 입도 크기(mean grain size)는 입도 분석을 통하여 결정하였으며, 이를 기초로 하여 나머지 요소들(Density, Velocity Ratio 등)을 결정하였다. 또한 공극률을 측정하여 평균 입도 크기와 비교함으로써, 공극률과 입자 크기 사이의 관계를 나타내보고자 하였다. 이렇게 파악된 해저면 특성들과 해저면에 의해 산란되어 들어오는 신호의 분석을 통하여 해저면의 상태에 따른 신호의 변화를 비교하였다. 획득된 자료들은 해저면의 상태, 즉 해저면 연흔(ripple)의 유무와 해저면내의 비균질성에 따라 수신되는 신호에 차이를 나타내었으며, 또한 입사각, 산란 각 및 방위각의 변화에 따라 신호에 차이를 보였다. 수신된 신호들간의 비교를 통하여 해저면내의 비균질성의 차이에 따른 산란 음파의 변화 양상을 파악하고자 하였다.

The objective of this research was to secure the fundamental information in changes of soil physical properties as influenced by the compaction of root media during container filling. Three root media were formulated by blending peatmoss (PM) with expanded rice hull (PM + ERH, 8:2, v/v), carbonized rice hull (PM + CRH, 6:4) and ground and aged pine bark (PM + GAPB, 8:2). Based on the optimum bulk density, the amount of root media filled into 6.0, 7.5, 8.5, 10.5 and 12.5 cm were adjusted to 90, 100, 110, 120, and 130%, then the changes in total porosity (TP), container capacity (CC), and air-filled porosity (AFP) were measured. The TP decreased significantly as the packing amount of three root media were elevated in all sizes of container. The TP did not show significant differences among the root media in small sizes of containers, but showed significant differences when sizes of containers became larger. As packing amount of three root media were elevated, the CCs in all sizes of containers were decreased. The PM + CRH had the lowest CC among three root media in containers smaller than 8.5 cm, but had the highest CC in those larger than 10.5 cm. These results indicated that the decreases in CC were influenced by the sizes of containers as well as kinds of root media. The elevation of packing amount in three root media diminished significantly the AFP. The AFP in PM + GAPB medium was two times as high as those of PM + ERH or PM + CRH when equal packing densities were applied in all sizes of containers. As the container sizes became larger in three root media, the extents in decreasing of CC were distinct than those of AFP. Above results indicate that elevation in packing amount of three root media decreased significantly the TP, CC and AFP, but these were influenced differently by sizes of containers and kinds of root media. The results would be useful for expectation in the changes of physical properties in various sizes of containers filled with peatmoss based root media.

The hydro-mechanical behavior of the Earth's crust is strongly dependent on the fractional volume and geometrical structure of effective pore spaces. This study aims to understand the characteristics of pores using electrical impedance. We measured the electric impedance of core samples (diameter, 38-50 mm; length, 70-100 mm) of three types of granite (Hwangdeung, Pocheon, and Yangsan) and two types of sandstone (Boryung and Berea) with different porosities and pore structures, after saturation with saline water of varying salinities. The results show that resistance decreases but capacitance increases with increasing salinity of the pore fluid. For a given salinity, the resistivity and formation factor are reduced with increasing porosity of the rocks, and the capacitance increases. Berea sandstone shows anisotropy in resistance, tortuosity, and cementation factor, with these factors being highest normal to bedding planes. This result indicates that the connectivity of pores is weakest normal to bedding. In conclusion, the electrical characteristics of the tested samples are related not only to their porosity but also to the pore geometry.
