  • Focusing on the effect of excess pore pressure dissipation on liquefaction-induced ground deformation, a series of 1-g shaking table tests were conducted in a rigid soil container by use of saturated Toyoura sand, the relative density of which was 20-60%. These tests were subjected to the sinusoidal base shaking with step increased accelerations: 100, 200, 300 and 400 Gals for 2-4 seconds. Shaking table tests were done using either water or polymer fluid with more viscous than water, thus varying the sand permeability of model tests. Excess pore pressures, accelerations, settlements and lateral deformations were measured in each test. Test results are presented in this paper and the effect of sand permeability on liquefaction and liquefaction-induced ground deformation was discussed in detail.

  • 본 연구는 자연재해대책법에 의해 개발사업으로 인한 재해유발요인을 예측 분석하고 이에 대한 대책을 강구하기 위해 수행되고 있는 사전재해영향평가에서 토양유실도 작성을 위한 HyGIS와 연계한 토양유실량 분석 모형을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. HyGIS(Hydro Geographic Information System)는 GIS를 수자원의 다양한 분야에 손쉽게 적용하기 위해서 컴포넌트 형태로 개발된 시스템이다. HyGIS에서는 DEM을 이용하여 유역 및 하천망의 추출과 지형분석이 가능하며, 하천 네트워크를 기반으로 유역의 다양한 정보를 운용할 수 있다. 또한 HyGIS는 데이터베이스를 기반으로 운영되며, GIS를 이용한 수자원 분야의 응용프로그램 개발 시 기반 시스템으로 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서 개발한 HyGIS와 연계한 토양유실 분석 모형은 HyGIS의 데이터베이스를 공동으로 이용할 수 있도록 개발하였다. 개발 툴은 GEOMania GMMap2009의 Add-on 형태로 개발하였고, OECD에서 제안한 토양유실 위험 등급도도 작성할 수 있도록 개발하였다.

  • 본 연구는 설마천 유역($8.54km^2$)을 대상으로 준분포형 장기강우유출모형인 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형을 이용하여 유역의 수문학적 거동 특성을 규명하고자 하였다. SWAT모형의 적용을 위하여 지형자료(DEM, 토지이용도, 토양도)와 수문 및 기상관측자료를 이용하였다. 유출량, 증발산량에 대하여 각각 보정 및 검증을 통해 모형의 적용성 평가를 실시하였으며 그 결과 유출 및 증발산의 경향은 실측치의 경향과 비교적 비슷하였으나, 통계적인 상관성은 불안정한 경향을 보였으며, 특히 가을에 발생한 증발산량을 모형이 구현해 내지 못하는 결과를 보였다.

  • 강우에 의한 얕은 사면파괴는 우리 나라에서 흔히 볼수 있는 사면파괴의 형태이다. 본 연구에서는 재현기간에 따른 강우강도와 지속시간을 고려한 한계평형법에 의하여 이러한 얕은 사면파괴의 가능성을 평가하기 위함 방법에 대하여 논의하였다. 이를 위해 일차원 침투모델인 Green-Ampt 모델에 바탕을 둔 두 방법을 고려하였다. 즉 침투능에 따른 침투깊이를 산정하는 Pradel과 Raad의 방법과 일정한(uniform) 강우강도가 작용할 경우 폰딩(ponding)에 대해 해를 주는 Mein과 Larson의 방법을 고려하여 함수특성이 알려진 화강풍화토사면에 적용하였다. 연구결과에 의하며 Pradel과 Raad 방법은 실제 적용된 강우강도가 아닌 침투능을 바탕으로 침투깊이를 산정하므로 Mein과 Larson 방법에 비해 보수적인 사면안정 해석결과를 예측한다.

  • Although DC ground resistance is a good index of performance for a grounding system, it does not reflect the grounding performance during the transient states. Besides, impulse ground impedance, which is defined by a ratio of the peak value of transient ground potential rise to the peak value of impulse current, cannot be an absolute performance index due to its dependence on impulse current shape. In this paper, a grounding performance of needle-typed ground rod has been compared with simple ground rod.

  • In case of a line-to-ground fault at transmission lines, a portion of fault current will flow into the earth through the footings of the faulted tower causing electrical potential rise nearby the faulted tower footings. In this situation, any buried pipelines or structures nearby the faulted tower can be exposed to the electrical stress by earth potential rise. Although many research works has been conducted on this phenomena, there has been no clear answer of the required separation distance between tower footings and neary buried pipeline because of its dependancy on the soil electrical charactersics of the concerned area and the faulted system. In this paper, an analytical formula to calculate the requried sepeartion distance from the faulted tower has been derived.

  • Low spatial resolution remote sensing (RS) data (LSRD) are promising in agricultural monitoring activities due to their high temporal resolution, but under such a spatial resolution, mixing in a pixel is a common problem. In this study, a numerical experiment was conducted to explore a mixed pixel problem in agriculture using a combined RSsimulation model SWAP (Soil-Water-Atmosphere -Plant) and a Genetic Algorithm (GA) approach. Results of the experiments showed that it is highly possible to address the mixed pixel problem with LSRD.

  • Satellite and airborne hyperspectral sensor images are suitable for investigating the vegetation state in agricultural land. However, image data obtained by an optical sensor inevitably includes mixels caused by high altitude observation. Therefore, mixel analysis method, which estimates both the pure spectra and the coverage of endmembers simultaneously, is required in order to distinguish the qualitative spectral changes due to the chlorophyll quantity or crop variety, from the quantitative coverage change. In this paper, we apply our agricultural independent component analysis (ICA) model to an airborne hyperspectral sensor image, which includes noise and fluctuation of coverage, and estimate pure spectra and the mixture ratio of crop and soil in agricultural land simultaneously.

  • A four-story reinforced concrete frame building model is designed for the gravity loads. only Static nonlinear pushover analyses are performed in two orthogonal horizontal directions. The overall capacity curves are converted into ADRS spectra and compared with demand spectra. At several points the deformed shape moment and shear distribution are calculated. It is observed that the seismic capacity may not meet the design requirements in soft soil condition and may collapse in MCE. It is concluded that limited but adequate amount of ductility need be provided in the seismic design in low to moderate seismicity regions.

  • A simulation-based approach that can be used to systematically model the uncertainties of seismic loading and geotechnical property is presented in the context of reliability analysis of slope stability. The uncertainty of seismic loading is studied by generating a large series of hazard-compatible artificial motions, and by using them in subsequent response analyses. The stochastic nature of spatially varying material properties and also the uncertainty arising from insufficient information are treated in the framework of random fields. The simulation-based analyses indicate that in a seismically less active region, a moderate variability in soil properties has a relatively large effect as much as characterization of earthquake hazard on the computed risk of slope failure and excessive slope deformations.
