산불은 소중한 산림을 파괴 시키고 자연생태에 막대한 영향을 미치기도 하지만 인근 주택가에 이차적인 피해를 주기도 한다. 도시팽창으로 인해 산과 주택의 거리가 가까워지고 있는 상황과 사람들의 부주의로 인한 잦은 산불로 인해 그 피해는 더욱 심각해지고 있다. 그러나 산림 인근에 있는 주택들은 대부분 농가에 노인들이 거주하고 있기 때문에 화재에 대해 대비책이 필요한 상황이다. 산불로 인한 인근 주택화재피해의 원인을 조사해보면 대 부분 산림과 주택의 거리가 좁아 불길로 인한 직접적인 피해와 비화로 인한 피해로 압축되고 있다. 이러한 피해를 예방하기 위해서는 우선 입산자와 산림인근 거주자에 대한 적극적인 산불방지 홍보가 우선시 되어야 할 것이며 이차적으로 주거지역과 산림과의 적적한 이격거리 확보와 인접되는 나무의 수종을 인화성이 약한 활엽수로 대체하는 등의 예방을 우선시 하여야겠다. 산불은 대부분 실화로 인해 발생하는 경우가 대부분이지만 대상이 불분명하고 실화자를 찾더라도 그 피해액을 산정하여 보상을 청구하기에는 사실상 불가능하다. 이에 정부 및 지자체에는 산불로 인한 인근 주거지에 대해 보험 및 예비비를 통하여 만약의 경우를 대비하여 대비책을 마련해 놔야 할 것이다.

The behavior of pure silt was investigated by using an automated triaxial testing device. The stress-strain behavior of silt due to the volume deformation tendency was compared with the behavior of clay prior to failure and behavior at failure under monotonic undrained compression and extension conditions. A pure silica flour was chosen to form samples. The isotropically normally-consolidated samples with 450 kPa of effective mean confining pressure and overconsolidated samples through unloading were tested. Based on the experimental results, it was qualitatively identified that the undrained strength of normally-consolidated silt increases due to its dilatant nature which is not seen in clay. Also the overconsolidated silt shows a significantly different behavior under the monotonic loadings due to the volume deformation tendency.

It has been well known that the major feature of compressible flow fields might be different depending on their formation processes. The objectives of the present study is to investigates the effect of jet development on the time history of supersonic jet flow field, accompanying nonequilibrium condensation. Especially, the behaviors of Mach disk diameter and location in a supersonic moist air jet are presented in terms of nozzle pressure ratio and initial relative humidity. The relative humidity of moist air is controlled at the nozzle supply, and the nozzle pressure ratio is varied to obtain the moderately underexpanded flows at the exit of the nozzle, installed in an indraft wind tunnel. It is found that at the same pressure ratio the Mach disk diameter increases with the initial relative humidity, while moves further upstream. Furthermore, the values of Mach disk diameter and location for increasing pressure ratio show larger than those for increasing.

The drained and undrained behavior of pure silt was investigated experimentally. Special attention was given to the stress-strain behavior of silt prior to failure and behavior at failure under monotonic and cyclic loading. A pure silica flour was chosen to form samples with two different densities of D,=80%, eo=0.68 and D,=35%, eo=0.9. The isotropically consolidated samples were tested in the triaxial testing device under monotonic undrained, drained compression and extension conditions. Also samples were tested under cyclic undrained condition. Based on the experimental results. it was qualitively identified that the overall behavior of silt is similar to that of sand. When compared with clay, silt shows a significantly different behavior due to its dilatant nature under both the monotonic and cyclic shear loadings.

In the present work, a computational study was conducted to investigate characteristic of lateral force on the flow fields inside the propulsion nozzle with step. The unsteady, compressible, axisymmetric, Navier-Stocks equations with SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model are solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme. In order to simulate the shut-down process of the engine, NPR is varied from 100.0 to 10.0. It is observed that the separation point and Mach-disk strongly depend on the variation of NPR, and adjusting the step lead to significantly different characteristics in the lateral forces.

In this study, physical property tests and standard consolidation tests were conducted on the marine clay of Busan New Port and North Port, the middle and lower reaches of the Nakdong River including Gimhae and Yangsan, and Ulsan regions. The moisture content, a property unrelated to sample disturbance with small individual test errors, was used for regression analysis with the compression index, virgin compression index, consolidation coefficient, expansion index, and secondary compression index, among others. Subsequently, the correlation and accuracy were evaluated. Upon analyzing the correlation between the moisture content, void ratio, and liquid limit commonly used physical properties for calculating compression indexes, it was confirmed that the liquid limit had the lowest correlation. Through a linear regression analysis of the consolidation constants using the current moisture content in the natural state, a high correlation was demonstrated. Relationship equations were then presented to determine settlement and settlement time. This study suggests that moisture content can be utilized as an alternative for evaluating and calculating consolidation constants when examining ground settlement in sedimentary clays distributed in the Busan and Gyeongnam regions.

The compressed packer device is designed to improve the underground contamination prevention facilities of ground water wells. As for the device, the installation is simple because of the safety lock device and the compression of the casing are simple the installation is simple.

This study presents a reasonable and economical DCM reinforcement length for the various factors (the embankment height, the distance from the embankment to the underground structure, the depth of the soft ground, and the compression index and the swelling index of the soft ground) that affect the stability of the structure due to lateral movement. Based on these results, we analyzed each factor's degree of influence and figured out which factor influenced the lateral movement most. The cross section of the embankment on the soft ground was modeled by using the Finite Element Program and reinforced with DCM. The results show that the increase rate of the reinforcement length with the increase of the embankment height is about 9~50%, the increase rate of the reinforcement length with the depth of soft ground is about 13~30%, and the increase rate of the reinforcement length with increasing compression index is about 3~25%. In addition, the influence of each factor on each other was analyzed. As a result, among the separation distance, the compressive index and the maximum to minimum slope ratio of the reinforcement length of the embankment height, the separation distance was the largest for the depth of soft ground. As the depth of the soft ground increases, the ratio of the maximum to minimum slope of the reinforcement length according to the embankment height is 3.75, the ratio of the maximum to minimum slope of the reinforcement length according to the spacing distance is 4.3, and the ratio of maximum to minimum slope according to compression index is 2.5. From these results, it is confirmed that the three factors are greatly affected by the depth of soft ground.

This paper reports test results to assess the influence of superplasticizers and different admixture on the flow and compressive strength development of cementless mortar using developed hwangtoh binder. Test specimens were classified into four groups: series for I the mixing ratio of superplasticizers, series II for a kind and replacement level of admixtures according to the variation of water/hwangtoh binder ratio, series III for the specific surface area and replacement level of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and series IV for the replacement level of powered superplasticizer agent developed to improve slump loss of concrete. The proper replacement level of each admixture is proposed for enhancement the flow and compressive strength of the hwangtoh binder mortar.

In this research, crack propagation in a silicon anode during two-phase lithiation was evaluated using a cohesive zone model. The phase transition from crystalline silicon to lithiated silicon causes compressive yielding due to the high volume expansion rate. Li-ion diffuses from the surface of the silicon to its core, and the complex deformation mechanisms during lithiation cause tensile hoop stress along the surface. The Park-Paulino-Roesler (PPR) potential-based cohesive zone model that guarantees consistent energy dissipation in mixed-mode fracture was adopted to simulate edge crack propagation. It was confirmed that the edge crack propagation characteristics during lithiation from the FEM simulation results coincided with the real experimental results. Crack turning observed from real experiments could also be predicted by evaluating the angles of maximum tensile stress directions.
