The physical characteristics of the marine clay in the Korean Peninsula, specifically Pusan areas of the south coast of Korea, were previously studied and reliable data from harbor construction projects were used for the relationship analysis of geotechnical strength parameters. The sample of marine clay classified to ML, MH, CL, CH and ML-CL from USCS were included for the analysis while the samples classified to SC were excluded in order to raise the degree of data analysis. Geotechnical strength properties, such as undrained shear strength, sensitivity ratio, and effective friction angle were analyzed and evaluated using the data obtained from unconfined compression test, triaxial compression test and field vane test. Abnormal values were extracted through statistical analysis. Moreover, the reliability of the results was improved by performing the evaluation of disturbance. Linear regression analysis was used for the relationship analysis, between undrained shear strength and depth. The relationship equation between undrained shear strength and depth was derived from the analysis of unconfined and triaxial compression test data of samples obtained at same location. Consequently, The relationship between depth and undrained shear strength is $S_u=0.015148D+0.04624$ and the undrained shear strength derived from the triaxial compression test was estimated to be about 1.26 of derived from the unconfined compression test.

To evaluate physical characteristics of open rainfall in Korea, terminal velocity of raindrop and drop size distributions (DSD) were continuously measured using by laser-optical disdrometer around Gosam reservoir, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do during three rainfall events from 2008 to 2009. The relationships between kinetic energies (KE, Jm^-2mm^-1; KER, Jm^-2h^-1) and rainfall intensity were obtained, respectively. Moreover, we compared the rainfall intensity from a disdrometer with the rainfall intensity from a tipping bucket raingauge to transform the kinetic energy of rainfall using the data from a tipping bucket raingauge. Therefore, the established relationships between kinetic energies (KE and KER) and rainfall intensity could be a useful model to consider the kinetic energy of raindrop using the rainfall intensity below 40mmh^-1 of max 5-min rainfall intensity in the middle of South Korea. However, to better examine the relationship between kinetic energy and rainfall intensity, further measurement will be required.

본 연구에서는 수평반사도를 이용한 강우추정 관계식을 유효성 측면에서 재평가하였다. 이를 위해, 강우추정 관계식의 유도과정을 다시 살펴보고, 관측자료를 가지고 강우입자분포의 매개변수를 추정할 수 있도록 식의 형태를 변환하였다. 이 식을 이용하여 비슬산 레이더에서 관측된 반사도-강우강도의 쌍 자료에 대한 강우입자분포 매개변수를 추정하였다. 마지막으로 추정된 매개변수 대푯값을 다시 강우추정 관계식 유도에 사용하였다. 이렇게 결정된 강우추정 관계식이 관측된 수평반사도-강우강도 자료를 얼마나 잘 대표하는지를 평가하였으며, 그 결과, 레이더 반사도가 작아지면 작아질수록 강우추정 관계식의 이론적 배경과 관측자료의 괴리가 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 강우입자분포를 지수분포로 가정한 형태의 강우추정 관계식이 모든 반사도 구간에서 유의하지 않을 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

This study is to estimate the uniaxal compressive strength (UCS) for the weak rocks using needle penetrometer test. The appropriate ratio of the artificial rocks for this test was cement (C):bentonite (B):water (W) = 1.3:0.7:2.3 or 1.5:0.5:2.0. From the relationship between needle penetration resistance (NPR) measured by needle penetrometer test and an estimated UCS, NPR and UCS tended to increase with increasing the curing period. Also from the relationship between the measured NPR and the measured UCS, NPR-UCS was linearly increased with the curing periods of 3-day to 14-day regardless of the ratio, then in the curing periods of 14-day to 28-day it was nearly constant. In conclusion, the overall relationship between NPR and UCS shows a linear relation for the most part, it means that UCS is possible to be estimated from NPR by needle penetrometer test in the case of weak rocks.

Shear wave velocity was used to estimate the geotechnical characteristics (void ratio and shear strength) of ground near an underground rainfall storage facility. An oedometer cell was utilized to measure the shear wave velocity and the displacement of specimens. Shear strengths were obtained by direct shear tests. The relationships along the shear wave velocity, void ratio, and shear strength were verified and used to infer the shear strength profile with the depth. In addition, changes in shear strength due to the construction of the underground rainfall storage system were estimated using the suggested method. The results show that the in-situ shear strength deduced from the shear wave velocity-void ratio-shear strength relationship is in good agreement with that obtained from an in-situ investigation (SPT).

This Paper describes a numerical method to evaluate the flexural strength of reinforced concrete members exposed to fire. An analytical method is developed for the moment-curvature relationship for the cross section which is subjected to high temperature. The method performs heat-transfer analysis for the cross sections and subsequently performs numerical analysis using the stress-strain relationships of concrete and reinforcing steel in various heat conditions. The results of the numerical studies are ; 1) the residual flexural strength exposing at high temperature is affected by the heating time, the depth of concrete cover and reinforcement ratio, 2) the residual flexural strength after exposed at high temperature is recovered of its original strength at minimum ratio of reinforcement, while members having half of maximum ratio and maximum ratio of reinforcement do not recover its original strength, 3) furthermore, the concrete may reach its maximum capacity before reinforcement yields in reinforced concrete members having maximum ratio of reinforcement.

Relationship between RVA properties and physical properties of film made from native corn starch and hydroxypropylated corn starch at various levels of plasticizers was examinel. Tensile strength of the film decreased, but its elongation and water vapor permeability increased with increasing plasticizer concentration. The film with glycerol showed greater changes in physical properties than that with sorbitol. Hydroxypropylated starch film showed lower tensile strength, higher elongation, and higher water vapor permeability than the native starch film. Sorbitol resulted in films with relatively high tensile strength, whereas glycerol produced films with increased elongation. The most reliable parameters for the relationship between RVA properties and film properties were RVA peak viscosity, tensile strength, and water vapor permeability. Water vapor permeability and tensile strength had linear relationship with RVA properties. The tensile strength and water vapor permeability of film could be predicted using the RVA peak viscosity.

Since existing constitutive models developed for confined normal strength concrete overestimate ductility when they are applied to confined high strength concrete, these models cannot be directly applied to confined high strength concrete. In an effort to solve this problem, an accurate stress-strain relationship of the hihg strength concrete needs to be formulated by examining the confinement effects due to increase of the concrete strength. In this study, a constitutive model is developed to express the stress-strain relationship of confined high strength concrete by carrying out regression analysis of the main parameters affection strength and ductile behavior of reinforced high strength concrete columns. Twenty-five test specimens were chosen from the reported experimental studies in the literature. The experimental results of stress-strain relationships of show a good agreement with results of the stress-strain relationships of suggested high strength concrete, covering a strength range between 60 and 124 MPa.

The knowledge of rock strength is important in assessing wellbore stability problems, effective sanding, and the estimation of in situ stress field. Numerous empirical equations that relate unconfined compressive strength of sedimentary rocks (sandstone, shale, and limestone, and dolomite) to physical properties (such as velocity, elastic modulus, and porosity) are collected and reviewed. These equations can be used to estimate rock strength from parameters measurable with geophysical well logs. Their ability to fit laboratory-measured strength and physical property data that were compiled from the literature is reviewed. While some equations work reasonably well (for example, some strength-porosity relationships for sandstone and shale), rock strength variations with individual physical property measurements scatter considerably, indicating that most of the empirical equations are not sufficiently generic to fit all the data published on rock strength and physical properties. This emphasizes the importance of local calibration before one utilizes any of the empirical relationships presented. Nonetheless, some reasonable correlations can be found between geophysical properties and rock strength that can be useful for applications related to wellhole stability where haying a lower bound estimate of in situ rock strength is especially useful.

강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것은 수문연구에서 중요한 주제 중 하나이며 댐유역에 대해 기상 및 유출자료를 사용하여 이를 상세히 분석함으로써 이수기에 필요한 수자원을 예측 및 확보하는 것은 중요하다. 강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 상세히 분석하기 위해서는 댐유역의 상류부터 하류까지 많은 유출관측지점의 자료를 사용해야 하지만 상류의 소유역들은 대부분 미계측유역이라는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 자료공간확장 방법을 사용하여 미계측유역의 유출자료를 생성하고 이 자료들을 분석함으로써 강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 자세히 분석하였다. 먼저 안동댐유역내 관측유역인 안동댐, 도산, 소천유역을 대상으로 1989년부터 2009년까지의 기간 중 20개의 사상에 대하여 분포형 모형인 GRM 모형의 적용성을 조사하였으며 전반적으로 0.5 Nash-Sutcliffe 계수 이상의 타당한 모형효율성 결과를 얻었다. 그 후 자료공간확장 방법을 사용하여 안동댐 상류에 위치한 47개의 미계측 소유역들의 유출자료를 생성하였으며 세 관측유역을 포함한 총 50개 유역의 유출자료를 연구에 사용하였다. 그리고 총 50개 유역의 평균강우량 시계열 자료를 생성하고 이동평균방법을 사용하여 이 평균강우량 자료를 강우강도-지속시간 곡선으로 변환하였다. 강우패턴과 유출반응간의 관계를 분석하기 위해 합리식의 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 사용하였으며 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 계산하기 위해 유역별 도달시간을 사용하였다. 여기서 강우강도비율은 강우강도지속시간 곡선을 사용하여 첨두강우강도를 도달시간에 해당하는 평균강우강도로 나눠준 값이다. 그리고 이 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 유역면적에 대해 도시함으로써 그 경향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 20개 사상은 유출계수, 강우강도비율과 유역면적을 사용하여 물리적으로 타당한 네 가지의 타입으로 분류될 수 있었다. 이 네 가지 타입은 강우의 이동 및 분포와 상관이 있었는데 첫번째 타입은 안동댐 유역전체에 강우가 거의 등분포하는 경우, 두 번째는 강우가 유역의 상류방향으로 이동하는 경우, 세 번째는 강우가 유역의 하류방향으로 이동하는 경우, 그리고 네 번째는 강우가 유역에 무작위로 분포하는 경우였다. 이것은 어떠한 사상에 대해서도 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 유역면적에 대해 도시함으로써 강우패턴과 유출간의 관계를 분석할 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다. 그리고 이 네 가지 타입에 대한 강우사상들의 비율은 각각 65%, 20%, 10%, 그리고 5% 였다. 이 타입별 강우사상의 비율은 향후 강우-유출관계에 의한 수자원 예측 및 확보에 활용될 수 있다.
