For the site characterization at two representative inland areas, Gyeongju and Hongsung, in Korea, in-situ seismic tests containing boring investigations and resonant column tests were performed and site-specific ground response analyses were conducted using equivalent linear as well as nonlinear scheme. The soil deposits in Korea were shallower and stiffer than those in the western US, from which the site classification system and site coefficients in Korea were derived. Most sites were categorized as site classes C and D based on the mean shear wave velocity to 30 m, Vs30 ranging between 250 and 650 m/s. Based on the acceleration response spectra determined from the site-specific analyses, the site coefficients specified in the Korean seismic design guide underestimate the ground motion in the short-period band and overestimate the ground motion in mid-period band. These differences can be explained by the differences in the bedrock depth and the soil stiffness profile between Korea and western US. The site coefficients were re-evaluated and the preliminary site classification system was introduced accounting for the local geologic conditions on the Korean peninsula.

A study on stream-groundwater exchange was performed using head and temperature data of stream water, streambed, and groundwater. Groundwater level and temperature were obtained from multi-depth monitoring wells in small-scale watershed. In the summer time, time series of temperatrue data at streambed and groundwater were monitored for three months. In the winter time, we measured the temperature gradient between stream water and streambed. The observed data showed three typical types of temperature characteristics. First, the temperature of streambed was lower than that of stream water; second, the temperature of streambed and stream water was similar; and last, the temperature of streambed was higher than that of stream water. The interconnections between the stream and the streambed were not homogeneously distributed due to weakly developed sediments and heterogeneous bedrock exposed as bed of the stream. The temperature data may be used in formal solutions of the inverse problems to estimate groundwater flow and hydraulic conductivity.

Sinkholes are key karst landforms that primarily evolve through the dissolution of limestone, and it posing a significant threat to roads, buildings, and other man-made structures. This study aims to analyze the area susceptible to sinkhole development using GIS and to identify potential danger area from sinkholes. Eight sinkhole related factors (slope angle, distance to caves, distance to faults, bedrock lithology, soil depth, drainage class, distance to mines, and distance to traffic routes) were constructed as spatial databases with sinkhole inventory. Based on the spatial database, sinkhole susceptibility maps were produced using nearest neighbor distance and frequency ratio models. The maps were verified with prediction rate curve and area under curve. The result indicates that the nearest neighbor distance and frequency ratio models predicted 95.3% and 94.4% of possible sinkhole locations respectively. Furthermore, to identify potential sinkhole danger area, the susceptibility map was compared with population distribution and land use map. It has been found that very highly susceptible areas are along Osipcheon and southeast southwest part of Hajang-myeon and south part of Gagok-myeon of Samcheok-si. Among those areas, it has been identified that potential sinkhole danger areas are Gyo-dong, Seongnae-dong, Jeongna-dong, Namyang-dong and Dogye-eup. These results can be useful in the aspects of land use planning and hazard prevention and management.

In this paper, horizontal seismic responses of a structure built on a sunken mat foundation were compared with those built on a solid embedded mat foundation to investigate the effect of a sunken mat foundation on the horizontal response of a structure. Seismic analyses of a structure laid on the embedded mat foundation were performed by utilizing a pseudo-3D finite element software of P3DASS. Three bedrock earthquake records downloaded from the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center database were scaled to reproduce weak-moderate earthquakes. Weak, medium, and stiff soil layers were considered for the seismic analyses of the structure-foundation-soil system. Parametric studies were performed for foundation radius, foundation embedment depth, and shear wave velocity of a soil layer to investigate their effect on the seismic response spectrum. The study result showed that the design spectrum of a structure built on a sunken mat foundation was similar to that with a solid embedded mat foundation showing a slight difference due to almost the same seismic base motion beneath both embedded foundations.

Technology for high-level-waste disposal employing a multibarrier concept using engineered and natural barrier in stable bedrock at 300-1,000 m depth is being commercialized as a safe, long-term isolation method for high-level waste, including spent nuclear fuel. Managing heat generated from waste is important for improving disposal efficiency; thus, research on efficient heat management is required. In this study, thermal management methods to maximize disposal efficiency in terms of the disposal area required were developed. They efficiently use the land in an environment, such as Korea, where the land area is small and the amount of waste is large. The thermal effects of engineered barriers and natural barriers in a high-level waste disposal repository were analyzed. The research status of thermal management for the main bedrocks of the repository, such as crystalline, clay, salt, and other rocks, were reviewed. Based on a characteristics analysis of various heat management approaches, the spent nuclear fuel cooling time, buffer bentonite thermal conductivity, and disposal container size were chosen as efficient heat management methods applicable in Korea. For each method, thermal analyses of the disposal repository were performed. Based on the results, the disposal efficiency was evaluated preliminarily. Necessary future research is suggested.

황해 군산분지 지역의 지구조를 해석하기 위하여 2006년 획득한 선상 자력 자료와 Scripps 해양연구소에서 제공하는 고도계위성중력 자료를 이용하였다. 중력자료에 대해 파워스펙트럼 분석과 심도역산이 수행되었고, 자력자료 분석을 위해 분석신호기법과 가중력변환 및 이에 대한 역산을 수행하였다. 중자력 자료 분석 결과 남 중소분지 중심부로 갈수록 기반암 심도가 증가하는 양상이 나타나며, 기반암의 심도는 깊은 곳에서 6-8km, 낮은 곳에서 약 2km로 해석되었다. 또한 남중소분지 중심부이서 기반암 심도와는 달리 중력이상과 자력이상이 높지 나타나는 것은 주변 기반암보다 밀도가 높은 화성암의 관입에 의한 효과로 해석되며, 이는 동일지역에서 수행된 정밀 탄성파 해석 결과와 잘 부합하고 있다.

이 연구에서는 초정지역의 충적층 지하수와 관련된 풍화대분포를 파악하고 단층파쇄대 조사를 위해 복합물리탐사(탄성파굴절법, 전기비저항, 지하투과레이더탐사)를 수행하였다. 탄성파속도 정보로부터 풍화대는 대상지역의 남서부로 갈수록 깊어지는 것으로 나타나는데 기반암까지의 심도 즉 풍화대의 두께는 또한 기존의 시추자료 및 지하수위 자료와 거의 일치한다. 소규모 단층과 관련된 파쇄대 조사에서는 탄성파굴절법, 전기비저항, 레이더탐사 자료를 속도와 비저항 구조를 복합적으로 천부까지 해석하여 단층파쇄대의 지표 경계등을 파악하였다. 복합 지구물리탐사로 정확히 제시된 풍화대와 파쇄대 등에 대한 정보는 충적층 지하수의 분포를 알아내는데 충분히 활용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

The goal of this study is to provide basic data to establish a foundation for the provision of safe drinkable water. The raw water of natural mineral water was analyzed to determine the quantities of anions (F^-, Cl^-, NO_3-N^-, and SO₄^2- ) and cations (Ca²⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, and Na⁺) during the former and latter half of 2016. Analysis of the current quality of the raw water of natural mineral water among domestic manufacturers showed average anions contents of 0.46mg/L of fluorine, 8mg/L of chlorine ion, 1.5mg/L of nitrate nitrogen, and 12mg/L of sulfate ion. While the fluorine content was greater than the water quality criterion of 2.0mg/L at four points, the fluorine level was overall stable. The average cations contents included 21.3mg/L of calcium, 1.0mg/L of potassium, 3.4mg/L of magnesium, and 9.6mg/L of sodium. The chemical characteristics were compared among the major ions, and the results are presented in a piper diagram. The content ratio of cations was in the order of Ca²⁺> Na⁺>Mg²⁺>K⁺, whereas that of anions was in the order of SO₄^2->Cl^->NO_3-N^->F^-. While the cations were slightly scattered, the anions were generally concentrated except for at a few points. The Ca-Na-HCO₃ type was dominant overall in water sources from diorite, gneiss, and granite, while the Na-Mg-Ca-HCO₃-Cl type was dominant in basalt sources. Mineral water manufacturers source their water under various conditions, including in-hole casing, excavation depth, and contact state of bedrock; even within the same rocky area, some differences in the water quality type can occur. When the depth of the water source was taken into account, the mean anions contents of F^-, Cl^-, NO_3-N^-, and SO₄^2- were similar, with no significant differences according to depth. Of the cations, K⁺ and Na⁺ showed no significant differences across all the tubular wells, whereas Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ decreased in content with depth.

지반 함몰 위험성에 대한 지질학적 인자는 매우 다양하다. 어떠한 지질학적 요인 또는 외부적인 영향에 의해 영향을 받을 수 있으며 동일한 지질학적 요인 내에서도 여러 가지 다른 물성값에 의해 지반함몰 영향인자가 결정될 수 있다. 다수의 논문 및 연구사례를 검토 한 결과 크게 7가지 범주의 지반함몰 요인이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 공동의 존재 여부에 따라 상재하중의 심도 및 두께가 지반침하에 영향을 줄 수 있고, 토사와 암반으로 구성된 지반에서는 그 경계면의 심도와 배향이 지배적 요소이다. 이 중 토사지반에서는 좀 더 다양한 영향인자로 구성이 되어있는데 토사의 종류, 전단강도, 상대밀도 및 다짐도, 건조단위중량, 함수비, 액성한계가 그것이다. 암반지반에서는 암석의 종류와 주 단열과의 거리 및 RQD가 영향인자로 구성될 수 있으며 수리지질학적 측면에서 접근했을 경우 강우 강도, 하천과의 거리와 심도, 투수계수 및 지하수위 변동이 영향을 줄 수 있다. 외부적인 요소도 지반함몰에 영향을 줄 수 있는데 굴착심도와 흙막이 벽과의 거리, 굴착공사 시 지하수 처리공법, 하수관로 등 인공시설물 존재 유무 등이 이에 해당된다. 최근 도심지의 지하구조물 건설에서 지반함몰 요소를 평가하는 것은 필수적일 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서 분석한 지반함몰 영향인자가 지반함몰위험 평가에 도움이 되기를 기대한다.

지반의 동적 변형 특성인 전단파 속도$(V_s)$, 압축파 속도$(V_p)$, 그리고 그에 따른 포아송 비(v)는 내진 설계나 내진 성능 평가 외에도 구조물의 거동 평가에 필요한 매우 중요한 지반 정수이다. 지난 수십 년 동안 이러한 지반 정수를 효율적이고 정밀하게 측정하기 위하여, 여러 가지 공내 탄성파 시험 기법들이 개발 및 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 가장 신뢰성이 높은 현장 탄성파 기법인 크로스홀 탄성파 시험을 지반 동적 물성 획득 기법으로 선정하였다. 지하수위 존재 여부에 관계 없이 토사뿐만 아니라 암반을 대상으로 크로스홀 시험을 성공적으로 수행할 수 있도록, 연직 시추공 안에서 지반을 대상으로 횡방향 가진이 가능한 스프링식 발진 장치를 개발하고, 두 곳의 기존 항만 부두 부지와 신규 LNG 저장 시설 두 부지로 구성된 국내 세 지역을 대상으로 크로스홀 탄성파 시험을 실시하였다. 대상 부지에서의 개발 발진 장치 적용을 통한 크로스홀 시험으로부터 지표 부근 토사부터 하부 공학적 기반암 및 지진학적 기반암으로 구성된 암반까지의 깊이별 $V_s,\;V_p$ 및 v와 같은 지반 동적 특성을 매우 효율적으로 결정하였으며, 적용 대상 시설물인 기존 항만 부두 시설물의 내진 성능 평가 그리고 신규 LNG 저장 시설물의 내진 설계를 위한 근본 자료로 제시하였다.
