Liquefaction is one of the most devastating geotechnical phenomena that severely damage vital structures and lifelines. Before constructing structures on problematic ground, it is necessary to improve the site and solve the geotechnical problem. Among ground improvement methods dealing with liquefaction, gravel drain (GD) columns and deep soil mixing (DSM) columns are popular. In this study, the results of a series of seismic experiments in a 1g environment on a structure located over liquefiable ground with different thicknesses reinforced with GD and DSM techniques were presented. The dynamic response of the reinforced ground system was investigated based on the parameters of subsidence rate, excess pore water pressure ratio, and maximum acceleration. The time history of the input acceleration was applied harmonically with an acceleration range of 0.2g and at frequencies of 1, 2, and 3 Hz. The results show that the thickness of the liquefiable layer and the frequency of the input motion have a significant impact on the effectiveness of the improvement method and all responses. Among the two techniques used, DSM in thick liquefied layers was much more efficient than GD in controlling the subsidence and rupture of the soil under the foundation. Maximum settlement values, settlement rate, and foundation rotation in the thicker liquefied layer at the 1-Hz input frequency were higher than at other frequencies. At low thicknesses, the dynamic behavior of the GD was closer to that of the DSM.

Cement-stabilized clay has widespread applications in Deep Mixing projects, whereby soft deep clay deposits are improved through the addition of cement. While much research on this subject has taken place over the past decade, the strength and deformation behaviour of cement-stabilized clay is still not well understood. An extensive laboratory program was conducted on kaolin stabilized with up to 10% cement. Water curing was employed for durations up to 112 days. To study the microstructure of raw and stabilized soil, use is made of SEM. Micrographs of selected raw and stabilized soil were obtained. These micrographs were closely analyzed for any change in the microstructure of the soil as a result of stabilization.

The DCM(Deep Cement Mixing) Method was introduced domestically in 1985 and has been applied widely to improve stability, increase bearing capacity and reduce settlement of the structure. It has been only performed by the combined equipment to improve the soft ground in coastal areas. But it has qualify-control problems such as interference of waves and improving depth, etc. Therefore DCM Barge of specialist equipment, named by Dong Ji Ho, was equipped with three mixing shafts with four rod and installed GPS system In itself, had been developed in 2005 for the purpose of solving the above problems. This paper represents about Dong Ji Ho's qualify-control system as well as it's first domestic application to in-situ trial test and the original design of the Ulsan breakwater site.

본 연구에서는 다양한 지반조건에서 현장적용을 위한 심층혼합시료의 실내강도특성 파악을 위하여 점토질, 모래질, 자갈질의 지반조건 20가지 경우에 8%, 10%, 12%, 14%로 안정재 혼합한 80가지 경우에 대하여 7일 및 28일 양생기간별로 두 개씩 총 320개의 공시체를 제작하여 일축압축강도에 대한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 실내시험 결과 모든 공시체는 양생기간과 안정재 혼합비가 증가함에 따라 일축압축강도가 증가하는 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, 재령에 따른 강도증가는 지반종류별로는 점토질과 자갈질 지반에서는 약 40.0%, 모래질 지반에서는 48.4%로 가장 크게 나타났고, 안정재 증가에 따라서는 혼합비가 14% 미만에서는 약 37.0%, 14%일 때 49.6%로 가장 크게 나타났다. 또한 모래질 지반은 혼합비 증가에 따라 강도증가가 점차적으로 커지는 경향을 보였으며, 점토질 지반과 자갈질 지반은 유사한 경향을 보였다. 이러한 경향에 의해 다양한 지반조건에 따른 심층혼합공법 강도 배합비를 제안할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 이산화탄소 포집광물을 심층혼합처리용 Soil-cement로 활용하기 위하여 최적 Soil-cement의 배합비를 도출하였으며, 이산화탄소 포집광물이 혼합된 Soil-cement의 품질특성을 평가하였다. 이산화탄소 포집광물은 슬러리 형태로 발생되며, 함수량 평가결과, 약 50%로 나타났다. 따라서, Soil-cement의 배합시 단위수량에서 이산화탄소 포집광물의 함수량을 제외하였다. 이산화탄소 포집광물 활용 Soil-cement를 현장토에 대하여 현장배합을 실시한 결과 재령 28일 기준 3.0MPa 이상을 나타냄으로써 설계 허용지지력 기준을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 이산화탄소 포집광물의 유해성 검증을 실시한 결과 구리(Cu)의 경우 0.055mg/L 검출되었지만 허용기준치에 만족하였으며, 이 외의 유해 물질은 용출되지 않은 것으로 분석되었다.

심층혼합지반의 강도설계를 위한 실내강도 특성을 파악하고자 점토질, 모래질, 자갈질의 20가지 지반조건, 8%, 10%, 12%, 14%의 4가지 안정재 혼합비조건, 포화도 100%에 대한 함수비와 그 때의 함수비에 10%, 20% 증가된 3가지 함수비조건에 대하여 7일 및 28일 양생기간 별로 두 개씩 총 640개의 공시체를 제작하여 일축압축강도에 대한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 점토질 지반의 경우 안정재 혼합비가 증가함에 따라 강도가 증가하지만 양생기간에는 관계없이 비슷하게 나타났으며, 심층혼합시료의 강도발현에 함수비에 대한 영향이 다른 지반에 비해 비교적 적을 것으로 판단되었다. 모래질 지반은 안정재 혼합비가 증가할수록 강도증가량이 뚜렷하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 또한 함수비 증가가 강도증가 효과를 감소시키는 것으로 판단되었다. 자갈질 지반은 안정재 혼합비 14% 이상에서는 강도발현에 영향이 커서 강도증가가 크게 나타났지만 모래질 지반에 비하여 양생에 따른 강도비는 작게 나타났다.

The artificial upwelling of deep seawater increases primary production. This study conducted a lab-scale experiment to investigate the growth of phytoplankton with the mixing ratio of deep and surface seawater. The chlorophyll content in the sample of pure deep seawater was highest, regardless of the phytoplankton groups. Nutrients contained in the deep seawater positively influenced the growth of phytoplankton. The optimum mixture to apply in an artificial upwelling system was a 1:1 ratio of deep and surface seawater. An experiment considering other environmental conditions, such as luminance and specific gravity, should be performed.

İzmir Bay reserves high amount of residual alluvial deposits generated by Meles River at its stream mouth. These carried sediments with high water content and low bearing capacity are unsuitable in terms of engineering purposes. In-situ soil stabilization with deep soil mixing method is considered to improve properties of soil in this location. This method is widely used especially over Scandinavia, Japan and North America. Basically, the method covers mixing appropriate binder into the soil to improve soil profile according to the engineering needs. For this purpose, soil samples were initially provided from the site, classification tests were performed and optimum ratios of lime and cement binders were determined. Following, specimens representing the in-situ soil conditions were prepared and cured to be able to determine their engineering properties. Unconfined compression tests and vane shear tests were applied to evaluate the stabilization performance of binders on samples with different curing periods. Scanning electron microscope was used to observe time-dependent bonding progress of binders in order to validate the results. Utilization of 4% lime and 4% cement mixture for the long-term performance and 8% lime and 8% cement mixture for short term performance were suggested for the stabilization of Meles Delta soils. Development of CSH and CAH in a gel form as well as CSH crystals were clearly observed on SEM images of treated specimens.

The transport of contaminants and spatial variation in a deep reservoir are certainly governed by the thermal structure of the reservoir. There has been continuous efforts to utilize three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic and water quality models for supporting reservoir management, but the efforts to validate the models performance using extensive field data were rare. The study was aimed to evaluate a 3D hydrodynamic model, ELCOM, in Daecheong Reservoir for simulating heat fluxes and stratification processes under hydrological years of 2001, 2006, 2008, and to assess the impact of internal wave on the reservoir mixing. The model showed satisfactory performance in simulating the water temperature profiles: the absolute mean errors at R3 (Hoenam) and R4 (Dam) sites were in the range of $1.38{\sim}1.682^{\circ}C$. The evaporative and sensible heat losses through the reservoir surface were maximum during August and January, respectively. The net heat flux ($H_n$) was positive from February to September, while the stratification formed from May and continued until September. Instant vertical mixing was observed in the reservoir during strong wind events at R4, and the model reasonably reproduced the mixing events. A digital low-pass filter and zero crossing method was used to evaluate the potential impact of wind-driven internal wave on the reservoir mixing. The results indicated that most of the wind events occurred in 2001, 2006, 2008 were not enough to develop persistent internal wave and effective mixing in the reservoir. ELCOM is a suitable 3D model for supporting water quality management of the deep and stratified reservoirs.
