Although high pressure discharge method is widely used for improving soft ground, it has various problems including lack of strength increase and the possibility of water pollution and soil contamination. MJM(Morta Jet Method) uses sand in addition to cement as the injection material. MJM uses triple rods with a built-in nozzle that allows easier discharge of the slime, resulting in higher replacement area ratio and more uniform formation of pillar hydrates, and thus results in significant increase in strength. MJM is expected to perform especially well as piles in marine clays. This study investigates the field applicability of the MJM through extensive laboratory and field tests.

This paper presents the results of an investigation on the effect of foundation stiffness on the performance of soil-reinforced segmental retaining walls (SRWalls). Laboratory model tests were performed using a reduced-scale physical model to capture the fundamentals of the manner in which the foundation stiffness affects the behavior of SRWalls. A series of finite-element analyses were additionally performed on a prototype wall in order to supplement the findings from the model tests and to examine full-scale behavior of SRWalls encountered in the field. The results of the present investigation indicate that lateral wall displacements significantly increase with the decrease of the foundation stiffness. Also revealed is that the increase in wall displacements is likely to be caused by the rigid body movement of the reinforced soil mass with negligible internal deformation within the reinforced soil mass. The findings from this study support the current design approaches, in which the problem concerning the foundation condition are treated in the frame work of the external stability rather than the internal stability. The implications of the findings from this study to current design approaches are discussed in detail.

To resolve land demand by the development of various industries and the cityward tendency of population, the construction of ultra-soft ground that is unused in the past has been progressing with activity. The ultra-soft ground has very small shear strength and large deformation, so leads to many problems in ground improvement in construction. In order to dispose of these problems, it is necessary to develope the chemical materials that can be applied to the surface stabilization of ultra-soft ground. In this study, the new ground treatment that is using cement and SCS is compared, analyzed with existing ground treatment. In addition, through the laboratory tests that check the characteristic of congealment and strength, the application of SCS in field is affirmed.

The purpose of this paper is to study on the investigation of abandoned waste landfill for rehabilitation. The geotechnical and environmental field and laboratory tests for wastes dumped at municipal site were carried out. Testing wastes were sampled at the illegal landfill site The various samples such as waste. soil, groundwater, gas, leachate were taken in the landfill site. As a result of this study, the engineering properties and concentration of samples were investigated The result of this study was used for introduction the rehabilitation method and treatment of unregulated closed landfill.

Interaction of grounded ice ridges with underlying seabed is one of the major considerations in the design of Arctic pipeline system. Previously several ice scour models were developed by researchers to describe the ice scour-seabed interaction mechanism. In this paper, a parametric study on ice scouring mechanism is performed and the limitation of ice scour-seabed interaction models is discussed. Simple laboratory tests are carried out and then the shape pattern of deposited soil around the ice is redefined. New ice scour model assumes trapezoidal cross section based on the field observation data. Ice scour depth and soil resistance forces on seabed are calculated with varying the keel angle of a model ice ridge.

This study was to analyze characteristics of soils reinforced by FPF(Fibrillated Polypropylene Fiber). Laboratory test, model test and field tests were performed on soils reinforced by fibers, to evaluate the shear strength characteristics. For the silty sand, clayey sand and silty clay, the influence of fiber shape, fiber length and fiber content were evaluated from compaction test, direct shear test, uniaxial test, california bearing ratio(CBR) test. Fibrillated type fiber, 5cm long with a content of 0.5% shows 5∼30% increase of friction angle and 7∼55 percent increase of CBR value.

Rotor bar faults in induction machines, which are a part of main distribution of power system, can even stop the entire system by causing contact between a stator and a rotor. There are two methods of diagnosing rotor bar faults in induction motors, online and offline tests, and existing diagnosis methods have many limitations which can lead to misdiagnosis. This paper proposes a potable rotor bar faults diagnosis system based on single phase rotation test, one of offline test methods, which detects rotor bar faults through impedance interpretation by exciting AC current in a stator winding. The test was conducted on a motor of 0.4kW in the laboratory and a motor of 1500kW in industry field.

The distinguished geological characteristic of Taegu area is consist of anisotropic shale or sedimentary rock. Therefore if rocks are used for construction, it would've some difficulties of reuse showing the aspect of resource engineering. We made physical and mechanic properties for rock discrimination and then whether it had utilization worth or not. So we studied the engineering propriety through the aggregate tests based on rock's in laboratory. The last passed aggregate were D, E and B1 at KS and the rest couldn't use the place where weather phenomenon is caprice. This sis for base-line data of aggregate development research before the porpriety investigation for aggreagte of excavated rock in Taegu area.

In this paper, the stability analyses were performed for masonry retaining wallls in Seoul subway System. This masonry retaining wallls were reinforced with earth anchor system for the construction, but it was removed after construction. Therefore, the stability of masonry retaining wallls should be checked after the earth anchors removed. For stability analysis of masonry retaining wallls. FDM analysis(FLAC Ver.3.3) and slope stability analysis (SLOPE/W) were performed applying the test results from laboratory and field tests(Schmidt hammer test, cack examination). As conclusion, the tension force of earth anchors should be kept, therefore, substitutional method was required in order to keep the tension force of earth anchor system.

In this research, the application of repair methods of water leakage cracks using self-healing technologies for subway tunnels is presented. In order to apply crack self-healing water stop agents and quick setting agents in subway tunnels, laboratory and field tests were performed based on various previous researches. Especially, this study focused on development of crack repair materials and their new repair methods. Therefore, various repair materials were examined for new repair materials with self-healing capability applied to crack sealing method and to patching repair method.
