In this study, the city of Osijek is used as a case study area for low to medium seismicity regions with deep soil over deep geological deposits to determine horizontal PGA values. For this reason, we propose new regional attenuation equations for PGA that can simultaneously capture the effects of deep geology and local soil conditions. A micro-zoning map for the city of Osijek is constructed using the derived empirical scaling equations and compared to all prior seismic hazard estimates for the same area. The findings suggest that the deep soil atop deep geological sediments results in PGA values that are only 6 percent larger than those reported at rock soil sites atop geological rocks. Given the rarity of ground motion records for deep soils atop deep geological layers around the world, we believe this case study is a start toward defining more reliable PGA estimates for similar areas.

Rock mass is an important engineering material. In hydropower engineering, rock mass of bank slope controlled the stability of an arch dam. However, mechanical characteristics of the rock mass are not only affected by lithology, but also joints. On the basis of field geological survey, this paper built rock mass material containing parallel concentrated joints with different dip angle, different number under different stress conditions by PFC (Particle Flow Code) numerical simulation. Next, we analyzed mechanical property and fracture features of this rock mass. The following achievements have been obtained through this research. (1) When dip angle of joints is $15^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$, with the increase of joints number, peak strength of rock mass has not changed much. But when dip angle increase to $45^{\circ}$, especially increase to $60^{\circ}$ and $75^{\circ}$, peak strength of rock mass decreased obviously with the increase of joints number. (2) With the increase of confining stress, peak strengths of all rock mass have different degree of improvement, especially the rock mass with dip angle of $75^{\circ}$. (3) Under the condition of no confining stress, dip angle of joints is low and joint number is small, existence of joints has little influence on fracture mode of rock mass, but when joints number increase to 5, tensile deformation firstly happened at joints zone and further resulted in tension fracture of the whole rock mass. When dip angle of joints increases to $45^{\circ}$, fracture presented as shear along joints, and with increase of joints number, strength of rock mass is weakened caused by shear-tension fracture zone along joints. When dip angle of joints increases to $60^{\circ}$ and $75^{\circ}$, deformation and fracture model presented as tension fracture zone along concentrated joints. (4) Influence of increase of confining stress on fracture modes is to weaken joints' control function and to reduce the width of fracture zone. Furthermore, increase of confining stress translated deformation mode from tension to shear.

Large earthquakes with (M_W > ~ 6) result in ground shaking, surface ruptures, and permanent deformation with displacement. The earthquakes would damage important facilities and infrastructure such as large industrial establishments, nuclear power plants, and waste disposal sites. In particular, earthquake ruptures associated with large earthquakes can affect geological and engineered barriers such as deep geological repositories that are used for storing hazardous radioactive wastes. Earthquake-driven faults and surface ruptures exhibit various fault zone structural characteristics such as direction of earthquake propagation and rupture and asymmetric displacement patterns. Therefore, estimating the respect distances and hazardous areas has been challenging. We propose that considering multiple parameters, such as fault types, distribution, scale, activity, linkage patterns, damage zones, and respect distances, enable accurate identification of the sites for deep geological repositories and important facilities. This information would enable earthquake hazard assessment and lower earthquake-resulted hazards in potential earthquake-prone areas.

Reclaimed coastal areas for the construction of ports and harbors are in general subjected to strong possibility of liquefaction. In this research, a new method for liquefaction hazard microzonation based on liquefaction settlements was developed. Severity of liquefaction hazard was defined by liquefaction settlements obtained from the method proposed by Tokimatsu and Seed. 10 coastal areas, representing typical geological and geotechnical characteristics of Korean ports and harbors, and 3 real earthquake records for site response analysis were selected. From this research, liquefaction settlement criteria is adapted as a new quantitative index for the liquefaction hazard microzonation. Liquefaction settlements were also compared with LPI (Liquefaction Potential Index), obtained from the assessment of liquefaction potential based on the modified Seed and Idriss's method. As an example, 2 and 3 dimensional liquefaction hazard microzonations of Pusan port and harbor area were mapped by overlapped liquefaction settlement contours.

지질도와 지질자료는 국토이용계획, 자원개발, 지질재해 예방 환경오염 방지 및 교육 등 다양한 용도로 활용되고 있는 중요한 정보이나 이들에 대한 데이터베이스화는 아직 본격적으로 수행되지 않고 있어 방대한 양의 지질자료가 체계적으로 관리되지 못해 정보로서의 이용가치와 효용성이 떨어진다. 또한 지질도는 층서 체계의 미확립, 도면 보존 및 경계 일치의 문제점 등 많은 문제점을 가지고 있어 데이터베이스 구축에 많은 문제점이 있으나 국가 기본 주제도의 하나로 빠른 시일 내에 데이터베이스로 구축되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 지질도 데이터베이스 구축 및 활용을 위해 1:50,000 축척의 안성 지질도, 1:250,000 축척의 부산 지질도 1:25,000 축척의 남창 지질도, 1:1,000,0000 축척의 한국 지질도 등을 시범지역으로 선정하여 이 지역에 대해 지리정보시스템(GIS)을 이용해 데이터베이스 설계 및 구축을 하였다. 또한 구축된 데이터베이스를 관리할 수 있는 관리 프로그램은 GIS 프로그램을 이용해 개발하였고, 구축된 데이터베이스를 이용하여 수치지질도 제작 및 인터넷과 CD를 통한 자료 제공 등을 구현하였다.

At new constructing national road, a cutting slope was surveyed and gotten face mapping for three months. The slope is composed of gray phyllite and coaly slate which is the Chang-ri Formation, Okcheon system. The slope angle is 40 degree and the direction is NNE. The attitude of schistosity is $260^{\circ}/45^{\circ}$. So the slope direction is nearly parallel to the schistosity. This is the reason that the slope is very unstable. On the other hand, the very unstable slope is caused by the direction of the schistosity and the slope. First month the coaly slate was slided through the schistosity plane about 10cm. However, three months late the displacement was 2m maximum.

Our country is serious difference of precipitation seasonally and about 66% of yearly mean rainfall is happening in concentration rainfall form between September on June. It requires consideration because of a lot of natural disasters by this downpour are produced. Slope failure is happened by artificial factor of creation of slope according to the land development, fill slope etc. and natural factor of rainfall, topography, nature of soil, soil quality, rock floor. Usually, Direct factor of failure slope is downpour. In this study, the Slope about among 55 places happened failure by downpour investigated occurrence position, geological etc and executed and inquire into character of rainfall connected with failure slope. Among character of rainfall, executed analysis about Max. hourly rainfall and cumulative rainfall of place that failure slope is situated and grasped the geological character of failure slope. Through this, inquire to character of failure slope by rainfall and take advantage of basis study for Hazard map creation.

과거의 많은 지진 사례에서 볼 수 있듯이 액상화 현상은 부등침하를 일으키고 심한 경우 건물 파괴, 지반 함몰과 같은 심각한 피해를 유발한다. 연구지역인 부산광역시 인근에는 지진발생 가능성이 높은 단층들이 분포하며 양산단층, 동래단층, 일광단층이 도심지를 통과하고 있다. 또한 최근 발생한 경주, 포항, 일본 구마모토 지진의 영향권 내에 위치하며, 도시 내 넓은 단층곡을 따라서 두꺼운 제4기 미고결 충적층이 발달하고 해안 지역에는 해빈 퇴적물과 함께 매립지가 넓게 분포한다. 따라서 부산광역시 인근에서 대형 지진이 발생할 경우 도심지 내에 액상화로 인한 큰 피해가 예상되어, 도시 전 지역을 대상으로 지진재현주기별 액상화 발생 가능성을 평가하였다. 그 결과, 지진재현주기에 따라 정도의 차이는 존재하나 낙동강 하구 평야지대와 부산만, 수영만, 송정역 일대에서 액상화 발생 가능성이 매우 높은 것으로 예측되었다. 또한 짧은 지진재현주기일수록 부지주기에 따라 상당히 다른 결과가 도출된 반면, 재현주기가 길어질수록 부지주기에 관계없이 그 결과는 비슷한 양상을 보였다.
