방사성폐기물 처분연구의 일환으로 단열 암반지역의 지하수 유동에 있어서 각 단열조의 투수량계수를 알아보기 위하여 연구지역에 설치된 3기의 시추공에서 초음파 검층, 정압주입시험 및 유동차원 해석을 수행하였다. 단열은 방향성, 틈의 크기 등의 그 분포 특성으로 인해 각 시험구간내의 지하수 유동에 있어서, 유동형태 및 단열투수량계수를 좌우하므로 일반적으로 수리특성에 널리 이용되는 다공성매질의 연속체 개념을 통한 해석의 적용에 신중성을 고려할 필요가 있다.

원전구조물의 방사성 폐기물 처분시설의 경우 지하수에 해수가 유입되어 콘크리트에 염소이온 침투가 발생할 수 있으며, 콘크리트 내부에 존재하는 인장철근의 부식에 의한 내구성 저하 및 수명 단축이 주된 문제가 된다. 본 논문에서는 원전콘크리트 구조물에서의 확산에 의한 염소이온 침투에 대한 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. 콘크리트 중의 염소이온의 침투는 콘크리트의 노출환경, 습윤상태에 따라 확산(Diffusion), 대류(Absorption), 전기적 이동(Migration)에 의해 발생한다. 이러한 조건을 모두 고려하여 제시한 방정식에 의해 염소이온의 침투를 예측할 수 있다.

This paper presents the results of a structural analysis to determine design variables such as the inner basket array type, and thicknesses of the outer shell and the lid and bottom of a spent nuclear fuel disposal canister. The canister construction type introduced here is a solid structure with a cast iron insert and a corrosion resistant overpack, which is designed for the spent nuclear fuel disposal in a deep repository in the crystalline bedrock, entailing an evenly distributed load of hydrostatic pressure from the groundwater and large swelling pressure from the bentonite buffer. Hence, the canister must be designed to withstand these large pressure loads. Many design variables may affect the structural strength of the canister. In this study, among those variables, the array type of inner baskets and thicknesses of outer shell and lid and bottom are attempted to be determined through a linear static structural analysis. Canister types studied here are one for the pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel and another for the Canadian deuterium and uranium reactor (CANDU) fuel.

최근들어 핵폐기물 지하처분장을 중심으로 터널굴착에 의한 주변 암반의 손상상태와 암반특성의 변화를 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 이는 암반의 지지력을 적극적으로 이용하는 NATM개념에 의해 터널을 시공할 셩우 안정성 해석과 최적 보강설계를 위해 필수적인 사항으로 고려된다. 그러나 현재까지 암반 손상영역을 평가하기 위해 제시된 여러 방법들은 아직까지 그 적용성과 타당성이 충분히 검증되지 못한 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 코어시추, 실험실시험, 발파진동측정, 보어홀 카메라 등의 여러 방법에 의해 손상영역을 정량적으로 평가하고자 하였으며 가 방법의 적용성을 검토하였다. 암반상태 및 발파조건을 달리하여 시험발파를 수행하였으며 발파 후에 터널벽면에 수직하게 시추를 하여 암석코어를 채취한 뒤 손상정도에 따른 암석의 물리적, 역학적 특성들？ 변화를 정량적으로 나타내고자 하였다. 코어 채취후 시축공에 보어홀 카메라를 사용하여 손상영역을 시각적으로 판별하고자 하였으며 발파진동 측정결과로부터 손상영역을 예측하고 채취한 암석시표에 대한 실험실시험 결과와 비교하여 적용성을 검토하였다.

We address a disposal issue of returned products in a product recovery system where a single product is stocked in order to meet a demand from customers who may return products after usage. Product returns occur randomly and can be accepted for remanufacturing or disposed of depending on the state of the system. We examine the structure of the optimal disposal policy for returned product that utilizes the information of the inventory of both serviceable and remanufacturable products. Numerical study indicates that it can be characterized by a monotonic threshold type of the curve. A disposal is allowed only when the remanufacturable inventory level exceeds a threshold which is the function of the inventory level of serviceable product and it is decreasing as the serviceable inventory level increases. Sensitivity analysis also indicates that the optimal disposal policy and the optimal profit have monotonic properties with respect to system parameters.

Mechanical excavation techniques employing tunnel boring machines (TBM) and rock splitters have been proposed to minimize rock damage for tunnel and underground waste repository facilities. Such a mechanical excavation, however, is extremely expensive and not applicable in all cases. For these reasons, controlled blasting using notched charge holes have been suggested to achieve crack growth along specific directions and inhibit growth along other directions. This study introduces a dynamic fracture process analysis code to simulate fracture processes of rock which has a notched charge hole.

The engineered barrier system of high-level radioactive waste disposal must maintain its performance in the long term, because it must play a role in slowing the rate of leakage to the surrounding rock mass even if a radionuclide leak occurs from the canister. In particular, it is very important to clarify gas dilation flow phenomenon clearly, that occurs only in a medium containing a large amount of clay material such as a bentonite buffer, which can affect the long-term performance of the bentonite buffer. Accordingly, DECOVALEX-2019 Task A was conducted to identify the hydraulic-mechanical mechanism for the dilation flow, and to develop and verify a new numerical analysis technique for quantitative evaluation of gas migration phenomena. In this study, based on the conventional two-phase flow and mechanical behavior with effective stresses in the porous medium, the hydraulic-mechanical model was developed considering the concept of damage to simulate the formation of micro-cracks and expansion of the medium and the corresponding change in the hydraulic properties. Model verification and validation were conducted through comparison with the results of 1D and 3D gas injection tests. As a result of the numerical analysis, it was possible to model the sudden increase in pore water pressure, stress, gas inflow and outflow rate due to the dilation flow induced by gas pressure, however, the influence of the hydraulic-mechanical interaction was underestimated. Nevertheless, this study can provide a preliminary model for the dilation flow and a basis for developing an advanced model. It is believed that it can be used not only for analyzing data from laboratory and field tests, but also for long-term performance evaluation of the high-level radioactive waste disposal system.

Use of nuclear energy inevitably brings the problem of radioactive waste disposal. Repositories for disposing radioactive waste use underground space that is unconnected with the outside and the diagonal system, which allows the waste to be deposited. Ventilation if necessary because high-level radioactive waste generates heat. In this study, the air velocity through diagonal branches with regulators of different sizes and in different locations, was measured. The air velocity is determined by the size of the first and last regulators, regardless of the size of other regulators. In the diagonal system. Consequently, once the desired total airflow rate has been achieved by installing the appropriate first and last regulators, the other regulators fan be evenly installed to maintain the minimum air velocity needed.

Electrical resistivity method, one of the most widely used geophysical prospecting methods. has been usually applied to explorations for groundwater and underground resources. However, it has been extending its scope to civil & environmental engineering areas since it twas been developed so as to image underground structures effectively. A FEM algorithm for the dipole-dipole array was developed to correct topographic effects which have a serious influence on electrical methods. Applicability of the electrical resistivity imaging technique to civil & environmental engineering areas was verified through three case histories in this study First, thickness of soil layers was profiled to judge the possibility of developing borrow-pits tn an industrial complect site. Second, weak zones such as fractures and coal seams were detected to provide geological information for design and construction in a high mountain tunnel site. Third, horizontal/vertical distribution of the contaminated zone and depth of waste disposal were delineated in a completed industrial waste disposal site.
