The measurement of in-situ stress is essential to estimate the ground displacement and the stress distribution of a tunnel and an underground structure. In this study, the in-situ stress distribution of the Southern Korean peninsula was re-evaluated by the new 380 in-situ data which were determined by overcoring and hydrofracturing methods, and the three-din erosional numerical analysis of tunnelling was performed. The results of in-situ stress distribution show that the distribution of horizontal stress tends to be more irregular in metamorphosed(gneiss) and granite areas than in sedimentary and volcanic areas. The ratio of horizontal to vertical stresses(K-value) in volcanic area is less than 1 below the depth of 150m. The direction and magnitude of three dimensional in-situ stresses were shown simultaneously in a figure for the first time in Korea. The three-dimensional numerical analysis of tunnelling indicates that the orientation and magnitude of displacement around a tunnel are controlled mainly by the difference between the maximum and minimum horizontal stresses.

To develope shale play which is one of unconventional energy resources, horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing are necessary and those are applied to the place where the differential horizontal stress ratio (DHSR) is low. The differential horizontal stress ratio is generally calculated by the minimum and maximum horizontal stress, but it is also calculated from dynamic elastic constants and anisotropic parameters. In this study we analyzed anisotropic properties through the core samples from Danyang limestone and calculated DHSR. The three types of core samples shaped in three directions (vertical, parallel and 45 degree to bedding) were used for laboratory test. We measured P-, S-wave velocities, and density and then calculated dynamic elastic constants, compliance and DHSR. According to the results of the core sample analysis the calculated DHSR is 0.185. Thomsen parameters of the Danyang limestone used in this study are characterized by the P- and S-wave velocities varying along the bedding symmetry axis. It is observed that the DHSR value is more affected by the change in compliance value than the Poisson's ratio. It is necessary to measure SH-wave velocity for more correct petrophysical properties.

This study aims to identify the geometry and internal structures of the Yeongdeok Fault, a branch fault of the Yangsan Fault, by detailed mapping and to characterize its kinematics by analyzing the attitudes of sedimentary rocks adjacent to the fault, slip data on the fault surfaces, and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) of the fault gouges. The Yeongdeok Fault, which shows a total extension of 40 km on the digital elevation map, cuts the Triassic Yeongdeok Granite and the Cretaceous sedimentary and volcanic rocks with about 8.1 km of dextral strike-slip offset. The NNW- or N-S-striking Yeongdeok Fault runs as a single fault north of Hwacheon-ri, Yeongdeok-eup, but south of Hwacheon-ri it branches into two faults. The western one of these two faults shows a zigzag-shaped extension consisting of a series of NNE- to NE- and NNW-striking segments, while the eastern one is extended south-southeastward and then merged with the Yangsan Fault in Gangu-myeon, Yeongdeok-gun. The Yeongdeok Fault dips eastward with an angle of > $65^{\circ}$ at most outcrops and shows its fault cores and damage zones of 2~15 m and of up to 180 m wide, respectively. The fault cores derived from several different wall rocks, such as granites and sedimentary and volcanic rocks, show different deformation patterns. The fault cores derived from granites consist mainly of fault breccias with gouge zones less than 10 cm thick, in which shear deformation is concentrated. While the fault cores derived from sedimentary rocks consist of gouges and breccia zones, which anastomose and link up each other with greater widths than those derived from granites. The attitudes of sedimentary rocks adjacent to the fault become tilted at a high angle similar to that of the fault. The fault slip data and AMS of the fault gouges indicate two main events of the Yeongdeok Fault, (1) sinistral strike-slip under NW-SE compression and then (2) dextral strike-slip under NE-SW compression, and shows the overwhelming deformation feature recorded by the later dextral strike-slip. Comparing the deformation history and features of the Yeongdeok Fault in the study area with those of the Yangsan Fault of previous studies, it is interpreted that the two faults experienced the same sinistral and dextral strike-slip movements under the late Cretaceous NW-SE compression and the Paleogene NE-SW compression, respectively, despite the slight difference in strike of the two faults.

Eighteen oriented samples from the Jeongsun limestone of the Joseon Supergroup are collected. The orientations of C-axis of calcite and e twin plane, the average thickness, numbers of twins and the widths of calcite grains in 10 samples are measured. Then, the twin strain, mean width, intensity of twin and relative magnitude and orientations of principal stresses are calculated using Calcite Strain Gauge program. Twin strain, mean width and intensitv rainge between 0.801%~10.927%, $0.43{\mu\textrm{m}}~2.03{\mu\textrm{m}}$, and 33.5~113.4twim/mm, respectively. Metamorphic temperatures calculated from twin show below $70^{\circ}C$, indicating that twins were developed within 2.3km depth. In five samples, two events with different orientations of principal stress produced calcite twins, while only one event produced calcite twins in five samples. The direction of the maximum stress is almost horizontal and the minimum is almost vertical, indicating that the stress regirne is identical with thrust fault. E-W and NW-SE are the most dominant directions of comressive stress and N-S and NE-SW directions are also shown. Comparision between paleostress orientations measured in the study and others indicates that the maximum horizontal stress oriented to E-W may represent the paleostress of period either from the Silurian to the Triassic or from the Silulian to the Permian. Paleostress oriented to NW-SE may be the major direction of stress during the Daeho orogeny.

Since early in the 90's, as the need for construction of underground rock structures has been largely increased, the in-situ rock stress measurement has been widely carried out to provide the quantitative information on the initial stress state of test site at the design stage of underground rock structures. Among the diverse method developed for measuring rock stress, hydraulic fracturing method is most popularly used because it is applicable at pre-construction stage and has no limit in testing depth. In this paper a study on initial rock stress state at shallow depth of the plain gneiss region in the central part of Seoul was performed on the basis of the in-situ hydraulic fracturing stress measurement results from the 11 test boreholes. And overall characteristics of the initial stress field of the study area are discussed.

Korea Stress Map database is built by integrating actual data of 1,400 in-situ stress measurements using hydraulic fracturing and overcoring method in South Korea. Korea Stress Map 2020 is presented based on the guideline proposed by World Stress Map Project. As detailed data, stress ratio and maximum horizontal stress direction distribution for each region are also presented. The dominant maximum horizontal stress direction in the Korean Peninsula is from northeast to southeast, and the magnitude of the in-situ stress is relatively distributed. There is some stress heterogeneity caused by local characteristics such as topographical and geological properties. We investigated case studies in which the in-situ stress was affected by mountainous topography, difference in rock quality of fracture zone, presence of mine or underground cavities, and geological structure of fault zone.

서론: 저 전력 소모를 필요로 하는 무선 센서 네트워크 관련 기술의 급격한 발달과 함께 자체 전력 수급을 위한 진동 에너지 수확 기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 다양한 구조와 소재를 압전 외팔보에 적용하여 제안하고 있다. 그 중에서도 진동 기반의 에너지 수확 소자는 주변 환경에서 쉽게 진동을 얻을 수 있고, 높은 에너지 밀도와 제작 방법이 간단하다는 장점을 가지고 있어 많은 분야에 응용 및 적용 가능하다. 기존 연구에서는 2차원적으로 진동 에너지 수확을 위한 휜 구조의 압전 외팔보를 제안 하였다. 휜 구조를 갖는 압전 외팔보는 각각의 짧은 두 개의 평평한 외팔보가 일렬로 연결된 것으로 볼 수 있다. 하나의 짧고 평평한 외팔보는 진동이 가해지면 접선 방향으로 응력이 생겨 최대 휨 모멘텀을 갖게 된다. 그러므로 휜 구조를 갖는 외팔보는 진동이 인가됨에 따라 길이 방향과 수직 방향으로 진동한다. 하지만, 이 구조는 수평 방향으로 가해지는 진동에 대한 에너지를 수확하기에는 한계점을 가진다. 즉, 3축 방향에서 임의의 방향에서 진동 에너지를 수확하기는 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 3축 방향에서 에너지를 효율적으로 수확할 수 있도록 헤어-셀 구조의 압전 외팔보 에너지 수확소자를 제안한다. 제안된 소자는 길이 방향과 수직 방향뿐만 아니라 수평 방향으로도 진동하여 임의의 방향에서 진동 에너지를 수확할 수 있다. 구성 및 공정: 제안하는 소자는 3축 방향에서 임의의 진동을 수확하기 위해서 길이를 길게 늘이고 길이 방향을 따라 휘어지는 구조의 헤어-셀 구조로 제작하였다. 외팔보의 구조는 외팔보의 폭 대비 길이의 비가 충분히 클 때, 추가적인 자유도를 얻을 수 있다. 그러므로 헤어-셀 구조의 에너지 수확 소자는 기본적인 길이 방향, 수직방향 그리고 수평방향에 더불어 추가적으로 뒤틀리는 방향을 통해서 3차원적으로 임의의 주변 진동 에너지를 수확하여 전기적인 에너지로 생성시킬 수 있다. 제작된 소자는 높은 종횡비를 갖는 무게 추($500{\times}15{\times}22{\mu}m3$)와 길이 방향으로 길게 휜 압전 외팔보($1000{\times}15{\times}1.7{\mu}m3$)로 구성되어있다. 공정 과정은 다음과 같다. 먼저, 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 탄성층을 형성하기 위해 LPCVD SiNx를 $0.8{\mu}m$와 LTO $0.2{\mu}m$를 증착 후, 각각 $0.03{\mu}m$과 $0.12{\mu}m$의 두께를 갖는 Ti와 Pt을 하부 전극으로 스퍼터링한다. 그리고 Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 박막을 $0.35{\mu}m$ 두께로 졸겔법을 이용하여 증착하고 상부 Pt층을 두께 $0.1{\mu}m$로 순차적으로 스퍼터링하여 형성한다. 상/하부 전극은 ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma)를 이용해 건식 식각으로 패턴을 형성한다. PZT 층과 무게 추 사이의 보호막을 씌우기 위해 $0.2{\mu}m$의 Si3N4 박막이 PECVD 공정법으로 증착되고, RIE로 패턴을 형성된다. Ti/Au ($0.03/0.35{\mu}m$)이 E-beam으로 증착되고 lift-off를 통해서 패턴을 형성함으로써 전극 본딩을 위한 패드를 만든다. 초반에 형성한 실리콘 웨이퍼 위의 SiNx/LTO 층은 RIE로 외팔보 구조를 형성한다. 이후에 진행될 도금 공정을 위해서 희생층으로는 감광액이 사용되고, 씨드층으로는 Ti/Cu ($0.03/0.15{\mu}m$) 박막이 스퍼터링 된다. 도금 형성층을 위해 감광액을 패턴화하고, Ni0.8Fe0.2 ($22{\mu}m$)층으로 도금함으로써 외팔보 끝에 무게 추를 만든다. 마지막으로, 압전 외팔보 소자는 XeF2 식각법을 통해 제작된다. 제작된 소자는 소자의 여러 층 사이의 고유한 응력 차에 의해 휨 변형이 생긴다. 실험 방법 및 측정 결과: 제작된 소자의 성능을 확인하기 위하여 일정한 가속도 50 m/s2로 3축 방향에 따라 입력 주파수를 변화시키면서 출력 전압을 측정하였다. 먼저, 소자의 기본적인 공진 주파수를 얻기 위하여 수직 방향으로 진동을 인가하여 주파수를 변화시켰다. 그 때에 공진 주파수는 116 Hz를 가지며, 최대 출력 전압은 15 mV로 측정되었다. 3축 방향에서 진동 에너지 수확이 가능하다는 것을 확인하기 위하여 제작된 소자를 길이 방향과 수평 방향으로 가진기에 장착한 후, 기본 공진 주파수에서의 출력 전압을 측정하였다. 진동이 길이방향으로 가해졌을 때에는 33 mV, 수평방향으로 진동이 인가되는 경우에는 10 mV의 최대 출력 전압을 갖는다. 제안하는 소자가 수 mV의 적은 전압은 출력해내더라도 소자는 진동이 인가되는 각도에 영향 받지 않고, 3축 방향에서 진동 에너지를 수확하여 전기에너지로 얻을 수 있다. 결론: 제안된 소자는 3축 방향에서 진동 에너지를 수확할 수 있는 에너지 수확 소자를 제안하였다. 외팔보의 구조를 헤어-셀 구조로 길고 휘어지게 제작함으로써 기본적인 길이 방향, 수직방향 그리고 수평방향에 더불어 추가적으로 뒤틀리는 방향에서 출력 전압을 얻을 수 있다. 미소 전력원으로 실용적인 사용을 위해서 무게추가 더 무거워지고, PZT 박막이 더 두꺼워진다면 소자의 성능이 향상되어 높은 출력 전압을 얻을 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

We have studied general orientational characteristics of microcracks distributed in Bulgugsa Granites of southwestern Gyeongsang Basin. Microcracks of 131 sets, which were developed on horizontal surfaces of II rock samples collected from Sacheon-Gosung, Geoje-si and Namhae-gun areas, were distinguished by image processing. Then, 45 sets with a distinct linear array on image were sorted out. These microcracks can be comparable with vertical grain planes. Orientations of these microcracks were compared with those of vertical rift and grain planes developed in Cretaceous and Jurassic granites of Korea. In the distribution chart, the agreement of the distribution pattern between microcracks of 45 sets and above vertical planes suggests that microcrack systems developed all over the study area also occur regionally in Cretaceous and Jurassic granites of Korea. Whole domain of the directional angle-frequency chart can be divided into 20 domains in terms of the phases of the distribution of microcracks. Meanwhile, 18 domains from 45 sets of microcracks were compared with the maximum principal stress orientations suggested from previous studies. The majority of maximum principal stress orientations pertain to domain $1{\sim}2$, $5{\sim}6$, $11{\sim}15$, $17{\sim}18$ and $19{\sim}20$, and these domains are coincident with the orientation of the 1st and 2nd-frequency orders represented in a rose diagram for 45 sets of microcracks. Representative orientations of open microcrack reflect the maximum principal stress orientations suggested in previous studies.

Stress and fatigue of the distributor, an equipment of the high-pressure evaporator for the HRSG, were evaluated according to ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII Division 2. First, from the results of the piping system analysis model, reaction forces of the tubes connected to the distributor were derived and used as the nozzle load applied to the detailed analysis model of the distributor afterward. Next, the detailed model to analyze the distributor was constructed, the distributor being statically analyzed for the design condition with the steam pressure and the nozzle load. As a result, the maximum stress occurred at the bore of the horizontal nozzle, and the primary membrane stress at the shell and nozzle was found to be less than the allowable. Next, for the transient operating conditions given for the distributor, thermal analysis was performed and the structural analysis was carried out with the steam pressure, nozzle load, and thermal load. Under the transient conditions, the maximum stress occurred at the vertical downcomer nozzle, and of which fatigue life was evaluated. As a result, the cumulative usage factor was less than the allowable and hence the distributor was found to be safe from fatigue failure.

The application of FRP wire as a mean of improving strength and ductility capacity of concrete cylinders under axial compressive load through confinement is investigated experimentally in this study. An experimental investigation involves axial compressive test of three confining amounts of FRP wire and three concrete compressive strengths. The effectiveness of FRP wire confinement on the concrete microstructure were examined by evaluating the internal concrete damage using axial, circumferential, and volumetric strains. The axial stress-strain relations of FRP wire confined concrete showed bilinear behavior with transition region. It showed strain-hardening behavior in the post-cracking region. The load carrying capacity was linearly increased with increasing of the amount of FRP wire. The ultimate strength of the 35 MPa specimen confined with 3 layer of FRP wire was increased by 286% compared to control one. When the concrete were effectively confined with FRP wire, horizontal cracks were formed by shearing. It was developed from sudden expansion of the concrete due to confinement ruptures at one side while the FRP wire was still working in hindering expansion of concrete at the other side of the crack. The FRP wire failure strains obtained from FRP wire confined concrete tests were 55~90%, average 69.5%, of the FRP wire ultimate uniaxial tensile strain. It was as high as any other FRP confined method. The magnitude of FRP wire failure strain was related to the FRP wire effectiveness.
