한 지점의 수문 반응을 결정짓는 주요 인자 중의 하나는 유역의 형상과 유역 내 하계망 구조이다. 유역의 형상과 하계망 구조는 지질시간 규모에 걸쳐 서서히 형성된 것으로, 주로 지반운동, 암석 및 지질구조, 그리고 이에 대응하는 지표 침식 정도에 의해 결정된다. 따라서, 암석 및 지질구조가 균질하다면, 유역의 특성은 지반운동과 지표 침식에 의해 좌우될 것이다. 본 연구는 지반운동의 시간적인 분포가 서로 다른 조건일 때 유역 특성이 각각 어떠한지를 수치지형발달모형(numerical landscape evolution model)을 이용한 모의실험을 통해 이론적으로 탐색해보았다. 구체적으로 모의 기간 동안의 총 지반융기량은 동일하더라도, 융기율이 전 기간동안 동일한 조건, 융기율이 특정 시점에 집중되는 조건, 그리고 융기율이 높았던 때와 낮았던 때가 반복되는 조건 등 세가지 시나리오를 실험하였다. 각 조건에 대해, 유역 형상과 하계망 구조는 어떻게 형성되는지를 살펴본 것이다. 모의결과 유역의 형태와 하계망 구조는 총융기량보다는 융기율의 시간 분포에 결정적인 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 융기율의 시간분포는 유역의 전반적인 경사(하천 종단의 요형도)와 충적하상 및 기반암하상 하도의 분포 등에 큰 영향을 주었다.

This paper described the analysis result on heaving of soft ground with DCM column type, based on the results of laboratory model tests on the soft ground with DCM column. The heave characteristics of the soft ground were evaluated according to the application of DCM column in soft ground. The results showed that the heaving of soft ground without DCM column occurred rapidly when the lateral deformation of soft ground increased significantly under the 4th load step condition. In addition, the heaving of soft ground in final load step caused tensile failure of the ground surface. The maximum heaving of the soft ground with the DCM column occurred in the final load step, and the heaving quantity decreased in the order of pile, wall, and grid type. Especially, the soft ground with DCM of grid type effectively resisted ground heaving, even if it was extremely failure in the bottom ground of embankment. The results of the maximum heaving according to the measurement point showed that the heaving of the soft ground with DCM of grid type was 3.1% and 1.6% compared to that of the pile and wall type at the location of LVDT-1, and the heaving of the LVDT-2 position was 1.0% and 2.1%, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to analyze lateral displacement behavior of clay layers in case of the banking in soft ground through model tests. Seven model tests varying with thickness of soft clay and loading velocity are performed to correlate between ground heaving and loading velocity. In case of low loading velocity, vertical settlement below loading plate and small ground heaving are obviously observed. In case of the high loading velocity, it is shown that both soil displacement at the end of a loading plate and surface heaving are large. In addition, the calculated displacements show good agreement with three cases of field measurements in clay with high moisture contents so that we can predict the range of heaving area and the amount of heaving.

In order to explain geomorphological characteristics of the Korean Peninsula, it is necessary to understand the spatial distribution of tectonic movements and its causes. Even though geomorphological elements which might have been formed by tectonic movements(e.g. tilted overall landform, erosion surface, river terrace, marine terraces, etc.) have long been considered as main geomorphological research topics in Korea, the knowledge on the spatial distribution of tectonic movement is still limited. This research aims to identify the spatial distributions of tectonic movement via sequential analyses of Digital Elevation Model(DEM). This paper first developed a set of terrain analysis techniques derived from theoretical interrelationships between tectonic uplifts and landsurface denudation processes. The terrain analyses used in this research assume that elevations along major drainage basin divides might preserve original landsurfaces(psuedo-landsuface) that were formed by tectonic movement with relatively little influence by denudation processes. Psuedo-landsurfaces derived from a DEM show clear spatial distribution patterns with distinct directional alignments. Lines connecting psuedo-landsufaces in a certain direction are defined as psuedo-landsurface axes, which are again categorized into two groups: the first is uplift psuedo-landsurface axes that indicate the axis of landmass uplift; and the second is denudational psuedo-landsurface axes that cross step-shaped pusedo-landsurfaces formed via surface denudation. In total, 13 axes of pusedo-landsurface are identified in the Korean Peninsula, which show distinct direction, length, and relative uplift rate. Judging from the distribution of psudo-landsurfaces and their axes, it is concluded that the Korean Peninsula ran be divided into four tectonic regions, which are named as the Northern Tectonic Region, Center Tectonic Region, Southern Tectonic Region, and East Sea Tectonic Region, respectively. The Northern Tectonic Region had experienced a regional uplift centered at the Kaema plateau, and the rate of uplift gradually decreased toward southern, western and eastern directions. The Center Tectonic Region shows an arch-shaped uplift. Its uplift rate is the highest along the East Sea and the rate decreases towards the Yellow sea. The Southern Tectonic Region shows an asymmetric uplift centered a line connecting Dukyu and Jiri Mountains in the middle of the region. The eastern side of the Southern Regions shows higher uplift rate than that of the western side. The East Sea Tectonic Region includes south-eastern coastal area of the peninsula and Gilju-Myeongchun Jigudae, which shows relatively recent tectonic movements in Korea. Since this research visualizes the spatial heterogeneity of long-term tenonic movement in the Korean peninsula, this would provide valuable basic information on long-term and regional differences of geomorphological evolutionary processes and regional geomorphological differences of the Korean Peninsula.

This study explores the performance of pile foundations in highly expansive soil, incorporating magnesium oxide-based refractory materials. A controlled model chamber, housing a fixed pile, was utilized to induce ground expansion through fused magnesia (FM). The investigation focused on measuring the vertical displacement of FM-sand mixtures and the axial load on the pile in relation to depth and time. The study varied the amount of FM content (FM_c) at 30%, 50%, and 70%. The upward movement exhibited an augmentation with increasing FM_c, tapering off with depth as accumulation progressed toward the mixture surface. Compression and tensile forces were both evident along the pile for FM_c at 30% and 50%, while only a tensile force was observed at an FM_c of 70%. These results offer valuable insights for the analysis of pile behavior within FM-sand mixtures.

The Mohr-Coulomb model is mainly used in evaluating the behavior of the ground in numerical analyses of domestic ground excavation. This study analyzes its limitations and compares its numerical results with the hyperbolic model, a model that closely follows actual ground behavior during excavation. Recent applications of the Mohr-Coulomb model in Korea have tended to impose arbitrary special boundary conditions to control the problem of excessive heaving of the ground excavation surface. This adjustment only controls the size of the heaving of the excavation surface, implying that the ground behavior is distorted from the actual behavior. This study compares results from the hyperbolic model (hardening soil model) and the Mohr-Coulomb model, and confirms that the hyperbolic model provides both a more-suitable solution to the problem of heaving during excavation and the actual stress-strain behavior. In numerical analyses of ground excavation, the hyperbolic model is expected to give results consistent with the actual ground behavior.

The construction method to prevent the frost heave or thaw settlement is called the ground stabilization method, and the thermo-syphon is one of the typical ground stabilization methods. The thermo-syphon has recently been developed with a simple analysis model and thermal analysis has been carried out, but the frost heave of frost susceptible soil was not considered. This study was conducted using ABAQUS internal user subroutine to develop the numerical analysis model (Coupled thermo-mechanical) that can simultaneously perform thermal analysis for the temperature change of the soil according to the thermo-syphon and structural analysis to predict the frost heave of the soil accordingly. As a result of the numerical analysis, the frost heave of the soil decreased as the performance of the thermo-syphon increased. As for the main results, when the thermo-syphon which has contain 25%, 50%, and 100% of refrigerant filling ratio was applied, the reduction ratio of the frost heave was 5.5%, 14.4%, and 21% respectively.

유수의 침식과 퇴적작용은 지형의 변화를 일으키며, 이런 지형변화는 하천 흐름, 지하수 흐름 등의 변화를 가져오며 이는 다시 지형변화의 원인이 된다. 이런 일련의 과정이 되풀이되는 것을 지형발달이라 하며, 이는 수문 현상에도 지대한 영향을 미친다. 지형발달의 주요 인자에는 강우와 지반 융기 등이 있으며 각 주요 인자들은 복합적으로 지형발달에 영향을 준다. 하지만 지형발달 탐구 시 실제 지형을 대상으로 탐구하기에는 한계가 분명히 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 컴퓨터를 이용해 수식을 계산하여 수치적으로 지형발달을 모의하는 모형을 이용하여, 지형발달에 영향을 주는 강우와 지반 융기를 중점적으로 탐구하였다. 지형발달모형을 이용하면 더욱 다양한 관점에서 지형발달과정의 역동성을 파악하는 새로운 시도들이 가능하다. 특히 특정 환경 조건에서의 논리적인 지형의 반응을 통한 해석이 가능해져, 환경 변화로 어떠한 지형변화 또는 지표물질 수지 변화가 있을지를 예측할 수 있다(변종민, 2011). 또한, 지형발달 일련의 과정들을 살펴볼 수 있기 때문에 시 공간적 제약에서 벗어날 수 있다. 그러므로 지형발달모형은 강우와 융기 조건에 따른 지형발달을 모의하기에 적합하다. 본 연구는 LEGS을 이용하여 강우와 융기 조건에 따른 지형발달 모의를 진행하였다. LEGS는 지표수의 흐름을 탐색하는 방법으로 GD8을 이용한 물리 기반의 수치적 지형발달모형이다(Paik, 2012). 본 연구에서는 강우의 변동과 융기 조건의 변화가 지형발달에 상당한 영향을 미치는 것을 발견하였다. 특히, 유역의 표고차이 등과 같은 정량적인 지표의 변화에 주목하여 각종 분석을 하고, 물리적 원인을 고찰하였다.

Frost heave on foundation(or ice jacking) is defined that foundation is uplifted by heav- ing force exerted around foundation from freezing of soils. This phenominon is often occurred in the light -weight structure e.g, small building, electro - telegraph pole, street light, pipe line, budge and reference point of survey. Frost heave is the most important factor in design of foundation of structure and the key issue in understanding mechanism of foundation in permafrost area. In this study is reviewed the state of the art on the analysis method of frost heave in USSR and is suggested the design method of benchmark pile. On the basis of above results, this study suggests a design chart able to do esign simply the benchmark pile in Yakutsk region.

The stability of tunnel construction depends entirely on the characteristics of the soil strength. If the soil strength is weak, collapse of tunnel occurs frequently under construction. In general, it copes with collapse by conducting half section excavation or reinforcement in advance under these conditions. Nevertheless, it can be collapsed under upper section excavation in the weathered fracture zone and it can be recovered through the application of reinforcement. As it has a bad influence on the upper section in case of upheaveal of tunnel bottom, it can be adversely affected on the overall stability of the tunnel. Thus, an in-depth review of reinforcement is needed in poor bottom ground. As the practices that has a bad affect on the stability of the tunnel due to upheaveal of tunnel bottom is increasing, research is needed for applicable standards for reinforcement. In this paper, it were investigated at actual field cases of upheaveal of bottom ground and characteristics of behavior and reinforcement measures were analyzed.
