This study was conducted to obtain basic data that could help prevent damage caused by slow-moving landslides (land-creep). Specifically, the geological, topographic, and physical characteristics of land-creep were analyzed in Jiphyeon-myeon, Jinju-si. The first and second analyzed land-creeps occurred in 1982 and 2019, respectively. The area damaged in the second land-creep was about 11.5-fold larger than that damaged in the first land-creep. The dominant constituent rock in the land-creep area was sedimentary rock, which seems to be weakly resistant to weathering. The areas that collapsed due to land-creep were related to the presence of separated rocks between the bedding plane in the estimated activity surface over the slope direction and the vertically developed joint surface. Thus, surface water and soil debris were introduced through the gaps of separated rocks. Additionally, the areas collapsed due to the combination of the bedding plane and joint surface shale and sandstone showed an onion structure of weathered outcrop from the edge to inner part caused by weathering from ground water. Consequently, core stones were formed. The study area was a typical area of land-creep in a mountain caused by ground water. Land-creep was classified into convex areas of colluvial land-creep. The landslide-risk rating in the study area was classified into three and five classes. The flow of ground water moved to the northeast and coincided with the direction of the collapse. Soil bulk density in the collapsed area was lower than that in ridge area, which was rarely affected by land-creep. Thus, soil bulk density was affected by the soil disturbance in the collapsed area.

As increasing number of large-size earthquake, the social interest of seismic retrofitting of RC structure is growing. Especially, the RC columns that are not reflected seismic design can not resist lateral loads by the earthquake. The brittle fracture of Non-seismic designed columns lead to full collapse of the building. Thus, the emergency columns reinforcement method is needed. That have a fast construction time, do not cause damage to the column. In the past, cross-sectional expansion method, a steel plate reinforcing method is applied mainly, but in recent years, carbon fiber sheet taking advantage of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) is widely used. In this study, retrofitting effect of seismic performance of FRP seismic reinforcement, which is possible to emergency construction, was examined. Reinforced concrete specimens were constructed to experimental study. The seismic performence of specimes retrifitted with FRP seismic reinforcement were evaluated. As a result, the seismic performance of specimen reinforced with FRP seismic reinforcement has been improved.

Subsea oil and gas exploration is increasingly moving into deeper water depths, and typically, subsea pipelines operate under high pressure and temperature conditions. Owing to the difference in these components, the axial force in the pipe is accumulated. When a pipeline is operated at a high internal pressure and temperature, it will attempt to expand and contract for differential temperature changes. Typically, the line is not free to move because of the plane strain constraints in the longitudinal direction and soil friction effects. For a positive differential temperature, it will be subjected to an axial compressive load, and when this load reaches a certain critical value, the pipe may experience vertical (upheaval buckling) or lateral (snaking buckling) movements that can jeopardize the structural integrity of the pipeline. In these circumstances, the pipeline behavior should be evaluated to ensure the pipeline structural integrity during operation in those demanding loading conditions. Performing this analysis, the correct mitigation measures for thermal buckling can be considered either by accepting bar buckling but preventing the development of excessive bending moment or by preventing any occurrence of bending.

The collision behaviors of the tripod and jacket structures, which are considered as support structures for offshore wind towers at the Southwest sea of Korea, were compared by nonlinear dynamic analysis. These structures, designed for the 3 MW capacity of the wind towers, were modeled using shell elements with nonlinear behaviors, and the tower structure including the nacelle, was modeled by beam and mass elements with elastic materials. The mass of the tripod structure was approximately 1.66 times that of the jacket structure. A barge and commercial ship were modeled as the collision vessel. To consider the tidal conditions in the region, the collision levels were varied from -3.5 m to 3.5 m of the mean sea level. In addition, the collision behaviors were evaluated as increasing the minimum collision energy at the collision speed (=2.6 m/s) of each vessel by four times, respectively. Accordingly, the plastic energy dissipation ratios of the vessel were increased as the stiffness of collision region. The deformations in the wind tower occurred from vibration to collapse of conditions. The tripod structure demonstrated more collision resistance than the jacket structure. This is considered to be due to the concentrated centralized rigidity and amount of steel utilized.

System support is a facility that is temporarily installed to support vertical loads at construction sites, and is assembled and installed by reused individual members. These characteristics are likely to lead to poor performance of installed system supports, and even though it is institutionalized to check structural safety at the their design phase, accidents continue to occur at the construction site. Accordingly, safety management of system support is implemented through various institutional methods, but the current system does not consider the performance degradation of temporary facilities due to the reuse of individual temporary members. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to verify the performance of assembled system support. In order to do achieve this purpose, the authors divided individual system supports into unused and used groups and performed compression performance test with defined models assembled with those two groups of system supports. The results of this study are expected to be meaningful as a research case that can quantitatively evaluate safety systems and standards for the performance of existing temporary facilities and suggest directions for improving the safety management system of temporary facilities in the future.

Geophysical surveys were conducted on an upper part of a natural slope located at Daejeon University. Electrical resistivity and seismic refraction measurements were carried out to obtain information on a weathered zone and internal structure at shallow depth, while AMT measurement a bed rock and geological structure at deep depth. With all the techniques applied, these results show a good correlation between electrical resistivity images and refraction velocity distributions for the characterization of a weathering and geological structure at depth. In particular, AMT survey seems to be the powerful tool for detecting a distribution of a bed rock with deep depth. The combined geophysical investigation produced a detailed image of a subsurface structure and improved well in the interpretation.

자연하천에서 다양한 목적으로 설치된 수공구조물을 볼 수 있으며 대표적으로 교량의 교각을 들 수 있다. 교각 주위에서 발생하는 국부세굴은 교량붕괴의 가장 큰 원인이므로 이에 대한 연구는 필수적이다. 수리실험 또는 수치모형을 이용하여 교각주변의 국부세굴에 관한 많은 연구들이 수행되었지만 세굴인자의 특성 및 메커니즘에 대한 연구는 여전히 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 LES(large-eddy simulation)에 유사이송 및 하상변동 모형과 결합하여 2개의 원형교각 주변의 흐름 및 세굴을 수치모의 하였다. LES와 유사이송 및 하상변동 모형의 결합은 난류의 영향을 직접 모형에 고려할 수 있기 때문에 교각 주변에서 발생하는 말굽형 와 구조와 같은 복잡한 흐름에 의한 영향이 반영된다. 계산영역은 흐름방향으로 10 m, 횡 방향으로 2.4 m로 하였고, 지름(D) 0.16 m를 가지는 원형교각을 유입부로부터 2.4 m 떨어진 위치에 배치하였다. 이때 두 개 교각사이의 각은 $0^{\circ}{\sim90^{\circ}$이고 원형교각 사이의 거리는 5D로 하였다. 수치모의에 사용된 조건은 이전의 수리실험(Khosronejad et al., 2012)을 참고하여 접근평균유속은 0.25 m/s, 수심은 0.15m를 사용하였다. 수치모의는 원형교각 주변의 최대세굴심이 평형상태에 이를 때 까지 수행하였다. 접근각도 변화에 따른 원형교각 주변의 세굴과정 및 특성을 분석하였으며 최대 세굴심 결과를 Hannah(1978)의 수리실험결과와 비교하였다.

자연재해로 인한 국민의 인적 물적 피해는 해마다 증가되고 있으며, 자연재해 피해 중 대다수가 홍수에 의한 피해를 보이고 있다. 홍수 피해를 줄이기 위한 재해저감 활동 중 비구조적 대책의 하나인 홍수예 경보시스템은 수리학적 모형을 활용하여 하천의 홍수위를 예측하고 범람 위험성과 제방 붕괴 가능성을 사전에 경보하는 시스템으로서 하천변 주민 대피와 홍수피해 대응 활동에 매우 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다. 홍수예 경보시스템이 본연의 역할을 제대로 수행하기 위해서는 수리학적 모형이 지형적 특성을 잘 반영하고 있어야 하며, 높은 정확도로 홍수위를 예측하여야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 4대강 중 홍수위험도가 높고 최근 하상단면 측량으로 인하여 수리학적 모형의 개선이 필요한 영산강 수계에 대하여 주요 지류인 황룡강과 지석천의 하도자료를 고려한 수리학적 모형을 구축하였다. 2013년 7월과 2014년 7월 2개의 홍수사상을 이용하여 시행착오법을 통한 조도계수를 보정하였으며, 2012년 8월과 9월 홍수사상을 통하여 검증하였다. 향후 본 연구를 통하여 개선되어진 영산강 수계 수리학적 모형을 활용하여 정확하고 신속한 홍수 예 경보가 이루어지길 기대한다.
