This paper studies on the wear corrosion behavior of induction hardening high strength cast iron in the acidic environments. In a variety of pH solutions, wear corrosion behavior of GC 300 with a variety of contact pressures was investigated, and corrosion wear behavior after immersion test was considered. Also, electrochemical polarization test for GC 300 was carried out in various pH solutions. The main results are as following: In the strong acidic environment, wear corrosion rate of GC 300 appears highly and in the neutral environment is stable. Also, graphitic corrosion in the strong acidic environment occurs. The corrosion current density of GC 300 becomes high in a order of pH 1 > pH 2 > pH 4 > pH 6.5.

In this study, finite element analysis is performed for consolidation behavior prediction of drainage-installed soft deposits. Finite element analysis is performed under the two strain conditions as small strain with limited application and large strain for relatively thick layers, large deformation and non-linear material properties. The analysis conditions such as layer depth, loading conditions, smear effects are also changed and variation of consolidation behavior for each condition is estimated from ABAQUS program.

It is necessary to predict the deformation and stresses on soils to establish the nonlinear stress-strain relationship of geomaterials at various strain levels. Especially, a need exists to establish the pre-failure nonlinear characteristic of cemented granular geomaterials used in road constructions. In this paper, therefore, conventional granular soils were mixed with various cementing materials, such as cement and fly ash from coal combustion by-products. Then, the normalized nonlinear behavior of cemented geomaterials was assessed using unconfined compression test. In addition, various constitutive models of soils were evaluated for estimating pre-failure non-linear behavior of cemented geomaterials from the test results.

This paper introduces a numerical analysis model capable of evaluating CFT (Concrete-Filled Tube) columns across all time stages, incorporating creep behavior analysis and inelastic analysis to account for time-dependent behavior. The proposed model is compared with experimental results, revealing that the numerical model presented in this paper demonstrates more accurate trends than existing design criteria. Following verification, a numerical analysis is conducted for each slenderness ratio, determining the ultimate load capacity and examining the short-term and long-term sustained load behavior of the overall CFT column members.

Groundwater is widely used as drinking water supplies around the world. However, microbial contamination of groundwater is a serious environmental problem that degrades drinking water quality and poses a great threat to human health. Among the pathogenic microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, and protozoa, viruses are not readily removed during transport through soils, having high mobility in groundwater environment due to their smaller size compared to bacteria and protozoa. Studies regarding the fate and transport of viruses in soils and aquifers are necessary to determine the vulnerability of groundwater to microbial contamination and to secure safe drinking water sources. Also, these studies provide important information to establish the regulations and policies related to public health. This review paper presented the field and laboratory studies conducted for the fate and transport of viruses in subsurface environments. Also, the paper provided the factors affecting the fate and transport of viruses, the characteristics of bacteriophages used for virus studies, and virus transport model/colloid filtration theory. Based on this review work, future researches should be performed actively to set up the viral protection zone for the protection of groundwater from viral contamination sources. Especially, the researches should be focused on the development of mathematical models to calculate the setback distance and travel time for the viral protection zone along with the accumulation of information related to the model parameters.
