As the number of existing road tunnels increases every year, collapse and floor heaving accidents occur frequently during construction. The collapse among tunnel accidents dominates, so that studies related to the floor heaving are relatively insufficient. Accordingly, many studies to reinforce the lower part of the tunnel have been conducted, but the analysis on the effect of the curvature of the tunnel floor is insufficient. Therefore, in this study, the effects of the upper analysis area height and the coefficient of lateral earth pressure of the tunnel located on a tuff deterioration zone with a large rock cover, as well as the floor curvature, were examined through sensitivity analysis. As a result of the analysis, it turned out that the overall stability of the tunnel increases as the floor curvature increases, the coefficient of lateral earth pressure decreases, and the upper analysis region increases.

Purpose : Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans(DFSP) is a rare tumor of the skin with a strong tendency of infiltration to surrounding tissues. Inadequate surgical intervention brings about frequent recurrence and poor prognosis. We attempted to find a guideline for adequate treatment for DFSP. Materials and Methods : Fourteen cases who had been treated in our department since Mar. 1993 and followed up for more than 12 months postoperatively were reviewed. Including nine cases who were transferred from other hospital after recurrence, thirteen cases underwent wide resection. One case was treated by intralesional resection followed by chemotherapy (CYVADIC) due to neurovascular abutment to the mass in the inguinal area. Results : The nine cases who were transferred due to recurrences experienced recurrence in average 1.3(1-2) times and the average period until first local recurrence from primary operation was 11.8(2-24) months. The thirteen cases with wide surgical margin showed no recurrence at the final follow up. One case treated by intralesional resection and chemotherapy showed multiple recurrence and died of the disease due to lung metastasis. Conclusions : From these data, we could find that primary wide resection can be the way of reducing recurrence and metastasis, and the follow up period for the detection of recurrence should be at least two years.

This study reexamines the old concept and reviews prevalent statements on Cenozoic vertical motions of the peninsula that have been uncritically repeated in our academia. The contents of this paper are redefinition of the notion, tilted flexure or warping, and a suggestion for a new time set and properties of the deformation, followed by a new model on its influencing factors and processes. In conclusion, the Cenozoic vertical motion of the Korean peninsula can be reified further with an epeirogenic movement of uplift in the east side-subsidence in the west side of the peninsula since the Neogene (23 Ma). However, the regional boundary for areas of uplift and subsidence is not likely in the Korean peninsula but broader farther to East China and the southern part of Russia. It can be best understood that mantle convection produced by subducting activities in the Western Pacific Subduction Zone causes the uplift and subsidence of earth surface around NE Asia. In addition, faultings in the upper lithosphere induced by in-situ plate boundary stresses accelerate regional uplift in the peninsula since the Quaternary. Controversies that are still standing such as current uplift movements along the western coast of the peninsula during the late Quaternary could be precisely discussed with future research providing detailed information on it.

This study investigates a neotectonic context of the past 5 Ma for the Otway Ranges along the southern Victoria coast, SE Australia by evaluating the distribution and development of marine terraces along the mountainous coastal area. Uplift rate derived from low terrace deposits using OSL dating method is determined to evaluate the extent to which mild intraplate tectonism has the capability to influence the geomorphic evolution of continental interiors. This study also investigates the stratigraphic relationship between Quaternary marine terraces and Pliocene strandlines, which suggests a change of tectonic activity in the Late Neogene. The intensified tectonic response is well addressed in terms of an increase of the Australian intraplate stress level due to the change of relative motion and increased forces in the boundary between the Australian and Pacific plate.

A finite element analysis has been conducted to clarify the behaviour of a single pile in heaving ground related to ground excavation. The numerical analysis has included soil slip at the pile-soil interface, analysing the interaction between the pile and the clay has been studied. The study includes the upward movement of the pile, the relative shear displacement between the pile and the soil and the shear stresses at the interface and the axial force on the pile. In particular, the shear stress transfer mechanism at the pile-soil interface related to a decrease in the vertical soil stress has been rigorously analysed. Due to the reductions in the vertical soil stress after excavation, the relative shear displacement and the shear stress along the pile have been changed. Upward shear stress developed at most part of the pile (Z/L=0.0-0.8), while downward shear stress is mobilized near the pile tip (Z/L=0.8-1.0) resulting in tensile force on the pile, where Z is the pile location and L is the pile length. Some insights into the pile behaviour in heaving ground analysed from the numerical analyses has been reported.

The present study was performed to observe the ultrastructure of the integument of adult Paragonimus westermani. Dogs experimentally infected with 60 metacercariae of F. westermani were autopsied 4 months after the infection. Adult p. westermani were extracted from the dogs and the fine structure was studied by means of scanning and transmission electron microscope. The findings are as follows: 1. Scanning electron microscopic findings showed that the spines and the papillae are distributed at whole body surface but the well developed spines or papaillae are shown around the oral sucker and ventral sucker. 2. At the end of the body, excretory pore was found, the shape was irregular. 3. Transmission electron microscopic findings showed that plasma membrane, tegument, basal lamina, connective tissue, circular muscle layer, longitudinal muscle layer. nerve axon and tegumental cell were observed. 4. In higher magnification, plasma membrance and bar-shaped granules were found at the outer surface of the tegument.

침엽수재(針葉樹材)(Radiata pine, Pinus radiata)MDF와 활엽수재(闊葉樹材)(Rubber wood, Hevea brasiliensis)MDF 각 1종을 대상으로 MDF를 제조하기 전 원료(原料) 섬유(纖維)의 미세(微細) 구조(構造) 및 내부결합력 시험 후 MDF의 파괴면(破壞面)에서 섬유표면(纖維表面)에 접착제(接着劑)가 도포(塗布)된 형태를 주사전자현미경(走査電子顯微鏡)으로 관찰하였다. 원료 섬유는 침(針) 활엽수재(闊葉樹材) 모두 fiber twisting 및 shrinkage fold 등이 관찰되었다. 침엽수재(針葉樹材)의 경우는 유연벽공부(有緣壁孔部)에서 유연벽공(有緣壁孔)이 없는 부분에 비하여 shrinkage fold의 발생 빈도가 낮고 표면(表面) 박리(剝離)는 가도관(假導管) 중 벽공이 없는 부분에서 관찰되었다. 활엽수재(闊葉樹材) 목섬유(木纖維)는 침엽수재(針葉樹材)와 마찬가지로 shrinkage fold가 관찰되었으나 표면(表面) 박리(剝離)는 거의 관찰되지 않았다. 활엽수(闊葉樹) 섬유(纖維)에서는 벽공의 유무에 따른 shrinkage fold의 차이(差異)가 거의 관찰되지 않았는데 이는 목섬유(木纖維)가 침엽수(針葉樹) 가도관(假導管)보다 작은 단벽공(單壁孔)을 갖기 때문으로 생각된다. 또 방사유세포(放射柔細胞)와 가도관(假導管) 및 목섬유(木纖維)의 박리(剝離) 부분(部分)에는 융기부(隆起部)가 관찰되었다. 내부결합력 시험후 나타난 파괴면을 통하여 접착제 분포를 관찰한 결과 거의 모든 섬유(纖維)들이 접착제(接着劑)로 둘러싸여 있었으며 섬유(纖維)간 접착형태(接着形態)도 매우 다양하였다. 침활엽수재(針闊葉樹材)간에 강도(强度)의 차이는 있었지만 파괴(破壞) 형태(形態)는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 즉 침활엽수(針闊葉樹) 모두 접착층(接着層)이 아닌 섬유(纖維)에서 파괴(破壞)가 발생하였으며 섬유에서 박리(剝離)된, 세포벽(細胞壁)의 일부가 다른 섬유(纖維)의 표면(表面)에 남아있는 형태와 섬유(纖維) 표면(表面)에서 떨어져 나간 형태로 관찰되었다. 세포 구성이 단순한 침엽수(針葉樹) MDF에 비하여 유세포(柔細胞)와 도관(導管) 및 목섬유(木纖維)의 파편들이 활엽수(闊葉樹) MDF에서는 다양(多樣)하게 분포하였다.

Seismic reflection profiles from the eastern continental margin of Korea delineate three major Neogene sedimentary basins perched on the shelf and slope regions: Pohang-Youngduk, Mukho and Hupo basins. The stratigraphic and structural analyses demonstrate that the formation and filling of these basins were intimately controlled by two phases of regional tectonism: transtensional and subsequent contractional deformations. In the Oligocene to Early Miocene, back-arc opening of the East Sea induced extensional shear deformation with dextral strike-slip movement along right-stepping Hupo and Yangsan faults. During the transtensional deformation, the Pohang-Youngduk Basin was formed by pull-apart opening between two strike-slip faults; in the northern part, block faulting caused to form the Mukho Basin between basement highs. As a result of the back-arc closure, the stress field was inverted into compression at the end of the Middle Miocene. Under the compressive regime, two episodes (Late Miocene and Early Pliocene) of regional deformation led to the destruction and partial uplift of the basin-filling sequences. In particular, during the second episode of compressive deformation, the Hupo fault was reactivated with an oblique-slip sense, which resulted in an opening of the Hupo Basin as a half-graben on the downthrown fault block.

This study is aimed at elucidating the source rocks of the Hayang strata in the northeastern part of the Gyeongsang Basin. Zircon morphology was analyzed for sandstones from the Iljig, Hupyeongdong, and Jeomgog formations of the Hayang Group and Precambrian gneisses and Jurassic granites. Generally, the composite zircon crystals extracted from the basement rocks and the Hayang Group sandstones show short prismatic to middle prismatic shapes. {110)={100) prism type is dominant and (101) pyramid is the average of the zircon morphology data. Zircon index@) and the shape trend characteristics clearly show that the zircon crystal forms of the Iljig and Hupyeongdong sandstones are dominantly similar to those of the biotite banded gneiss and granite gneiss of Precambrian age. Zircon morphology of the Jeomgog sandstones is dominantly similar to those of the Jurassic granites. Referring to the reported paleocurrent result, the source rocks of the Iljig and Hupyeongdong formations are mainly the Precambrian gneisses distributed in the southeastern and northeastern parts, respectively. And Jeomgog sandstones were mainly derived from Cheongsong granite at Cheongsong uplift region in the eastern part. At the time of completion of the Hupyeongdong sedimentation, the Precambrian basement rocks were severely eroded and formed low topography. During the Jeomgog period, the Jurassic granites which intruded the Precambrian basement began to crop out on the surface. The basin widely extended toward the east and the exposed Jurassic granite of Cheongsong uplift region actively supplied the sediments to the basin.

The movement of rock cut slopes may result in upheaval of an adjacent road. Because most cut slopes consist of rock, road upheaval due to the movement of a cut slope is a rare phenomenon in Korea. We found that the movement of rock slopes which are heavily weathered and with strongly developed weak zones is governed by circular failure of the overall rock formation rather than by failure along discontinuities. The results of a numerical analysis revealed that the application of a ubiquitous joint model in a continuum analysis is appropriate for anisotropic rocks (e.g., schist) and for slopes for which the stability is influenced by a particular discontinuity. The results of a field investigation and numerical analyses suggest that retaining walls and anchors should be used to stabilize rock slopes and that real-time monitoring equipment should be installed to assess the reinforcing effect of the remedial measures.
