Linear cutting tests on granite were conducted to evaluated the cutting performance of abrasive water jet(AWJ) using several types of abrasives. The abrasives used in the tests were grarnet, alumimum oxide, and silicon carbide. And one type of granite which is comercially known as "KeuchangSuk" was used as workpiece throughout the tests. The results from the tests were described in terms of cutting depth and abrasive productivity. Authors tried to confirm the effects of the operational parameters of abrasive mass flow rate, water pressure, and traverse speed of nozzle on cutting depth and presented almost all the data obtained in the tests. Abrasive productivity can be defined as the area of kerf wall cut by unit weight of abrasive and is an important factor to evaluated the cutting ability of abrasive and assess the cost effectiveness of an AWJ system. In the tests the maximum abrasive productivities of garnet, alumina, and silicon carbide were about 0.21, 0.24, and 0.20 $\textrm{cm}^2$ respectively under similar operational conditions.onditions.

It is well known that water treeing is one of the main cause of breakdown in underground power cables, but water tree is not easy to observe. This aging phenomenon was resulted in effect of water and electric field and so on. In this paper, Distilled water was used as water electrode to observe the water treeing in XLPE(cross-linked polyethylene). To observe easily, sample was made of pallet types so water tree was able to show by microscope. As a result, electrical tree appears at niddle electrode tip which was concentrated electric field, but water tree was shown up different types that were appealed in total area of water electrode as well as water electrode tip.

As demand of electric power are growing and transmission line limited owing to enlargement of the downtown area The eonfidence of underground transmission cable which shows gradual growth are high. It is found whether insulating ability is good or not. In this paper, The exper iment result is shown that the fall of insulating ability and take preventive measure through the analysis of tans, water content, dielectric breakdown voltage, total acid number, volume resistivity , and gas in the oil in an accordance with the characteristic change of oil used very much for insulating oil of cable.

This paper summarizes the feasibility study of HTS power cables in Korea, including the conceptual design of a 154 kV 1000 MVA class HTS cable system, and the relative economic evaluations between conventional and HTS cable systems in Seoul area. According to the results of the economic evaluations, the HTS cable system can reduce the construction work for 168km of underground transmission lines, saving 700 million USD of construction cost in 2010.

The platform screen door(PSD) hasn't been installed yet within the manual operation system, that is, ATS & ATC Signal system. In other countries, it is mostly installed and operated within automatic operation system, that is, ATO. Especially, as a part of the environment friendly system installation, the installation of PSD shall be considered aggressively to improve the air quality in the underground area and to maintain the air-conditioning. Besides the number of suicides in the subway station gets increased these days causing safety hazard, so the installation of PSD is positively reviewed. To install PSD in the manual operation system, it is important to stop the train at the correct position. So we would like to suggest the technical system thereby.

Grouting technique is frequently used where a tunnel structure is passing through the shallow overburden area or where the thickness of hard rock above the tunnel is rather thin. However, engineering background on design process of the grout reinforcement does not seem to be fully understood until now. Mechanics of composite material is, therefore, introduced in this study to investigate the orthotropic material properties of the composites containing soil(or rock) and grouting material. These orthotropic material properties can be used to represent the reinfocement effects quantitatively. The model developed in this study is next applied to a typical tunnel structure and the grouting effect is analyzed numerically. The idea used in this study can be expanded to a situation where a pipe roofing or a forepoling technique is adopted and a simplified design procedure, similar to the model model introduced in this study, can be developed.

본 연구에서는 강원도 정선지역 및 삼척지역의 폐탄광 지역에서 관측된 지반침하지역의 공간자료와 각종 지반침하 관련요인을 분석하여, 지질학적구조와 지역적 특성이 상이한 지역에서 지반침하에 직접적인 영향을 주는 공통요인을 찾아내고자 하였다. 연구지역의 지반침하 관련요인들에 대해 GIS(Geographic Information System)를 이용하여 래스터 데이터베이스를 구축하고 모든 요인을 이용하여 분석한 위험지역과 하나의 요인씩 제거하며 분석한 위험지역을 비교하는 민감도 분석 (Sensitivity analysis)을 통해 지반침하와 연관성이 높은 요인을 추출하였다. 민감도 분석은 서로 다른 두 지역에 대해 수행하여 그 결과를 비교하였으며, 갱으로부터의 수평거리，RMR(Rock Mass Rating), 지하수 심도가 지반침하에 영향을 주는 공통요인으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과, 폐탄광지역의 지반침하에 공통적으로 영향을 끼치는 주 요인을 구할 수 있었으며, 타 지역에서 지반침하 예측시 기존 연구에서 사용한 요인들의 데이터를 전부 구하지 못하는 경우에도 최소한의 필요한 요인을 정할 수 있으며 지반침하 예측의 효율성을 높일 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

There are a lot of traffic jams in the metropolitan area and the commuting time has been longer nowadays. So the urban people has been interested in the GTX(Great Train Express) project in Korea. The GTX is the train which runs at 200km/h speed in underground tunnels. If the train also operates at high speed in tunnel section, the pressure wave will happen and the uplift force of pantograph may vary abruptly. If the rigid trolley bar system is used in tunnel section, it is difficult to improve the commercial speed of train. In order to improve the train speed in tunnel section, this paper presents the new pantograph concepts which can change the suspension stiffness and deals with the dynamic behavior characteristics of pantograph according to the parameter variation.

To assess deep geological environment for the research and development of hish-level radioactive waste disposal, six boreholes of 3" in diameter were installed in two granitic areas. An areal extent of the rock block scale in the study sites was estimated by the lineament analysis from satellite images and shaded relief maps. The characterization of fracture system developed in rock block scale was carried out based on the acoustic televiewer logging in deep boreholes. In the Yuseong site, the granite rock mass was divided into the upper and lower zones at around -160m based on the probabilistic distribution characteristics of the geometric parameters such as orientation, fracture frequency, spacing and aperture size. Since the groundwater flow is dependent on the fracture system in a fractured rock mass, the correlation of the fracture frequency and cumulative aperture size to the hydraulic conductivity was also discussed.

The CGS method is non-discharge replacement method improving ground stiffness by the effect of static compaction with injecting very low slump mortar into ground, and is applied for increasing bearing capacity and filling ground cavity by lifting or restoring differential settled structures and preventing differential settlement. This paper suggests design of ground improvement and construction case history for civil engineering structures by CGS method. This method can be used for reinforcing soft ground and liquefaction of loose sandy soil. This method was used in SongDo area in Incheon Economic Free Zone due to its low vibration of ground while it can improve the soft soil where underground structures(subway and box culvert) are already existed.
