Probabilistic analysis is a powerful method to quantify variability and uncertainty common in engineering geology fields. In rock slope engineering, the uncertainty and variation may be in the form of scatter in orientations and geometries of discontinuities, and also test results. However, in the deterministic analysis, the factor of safety which is used to ensure stability of rock slopes, is based on the fixed representative values for each parameter without a consideration of the scattering in data. For comparison, in the probabilistic analysis, these discontinuity parameters are considered as random variables, and therefore, the reliability and probability theories are utilized to evaluate the possibility of slope failure. Therefore, in the probabilistic analysis, the factor of safety is considered as a random variable and replaced by the probability of failure to measure the level of slope stability. In this study, the stochastic properties of discontinuity parameters are evaluated and the stability of rock slope is analyzed based on the random properties of discontinuity parameters. Then, the results between the deterministic analysis and the probabilistic analysis are compared and the differences between the two analysis methods are explained.

지열류량은 지열자원 개발 시 지열 이상대를 찾는데 있어서 중요한 자료로 사용된다. 우리나라의 지체구조별 지열류량 평균은 경기육괴 66 $mW/m^2$, 옥천습곡대 65 $mW/m^2$, 영남육괴 60 $mW/m^2$, 경상분지 72 $mW/m^2$, 연일분지 75 $mW/m^2$이다. 이러한 대륙 내의 지표 지열류량은 상부 지각내의 방사성 동위원소 붕괴에 의한 열생산율(${\sim}40%$)과 하부지각 및 상부맨틀에서부터 전도되어 올라온 지열류량(${\sim}60%$)으로 설명할 수 있다. 따라서 지열류량의 결정에 있어서 열생산율의 정보는 중요한 부분을 차지한다. 열생산율은 지각 내에 존재하는 주요 방사성 동위 원소인 U, Th, K의 붕괴열에 의한 것이며, 열생산율의 측정은 gamma-ray log 자료를 이용하는 방법과 화학분석을 통한 방법이 있다. 이 연구에서는 두 가지 방법을 이용하여 총 123개(화강암 86개, 편마암 37개) 지점에서의 열생산율을 산출하였다. 화강암의 열생산율 평균은 2.15 ${\mu}W/m^3$이며, 편마암의 열생산율 평균은 2.22 ${\mu}W/m^3$로 나타났다. 지체구조별 열생산율의 평균은 경기육괴 2.52 ${\mu}W/m^3$, 옥천습곡대 2.16 ${\mu}W/m^3$, 영남육괴 2.35 ${\mu}W/m^3$, 경상분지 2.01 ${\mu}W/m^3$로 나타났다. 지체 구조별 열생산율과 지열류량의 상관성 분석에서 우리나라의 경우 지열류량이 높은 지역에서 열생산율이 낮은 경향을 보인다. 따라서 열생산율이 지표 지열류량을 결정하는데 있어서 가장 중요한 요소가 아님을 확인할 수 있다.

거의 유일하게 정가제가 지켜가는 단행본시장에서 마진율 경쟁이 심화, "정가제 붕괴설"이 나돌고 있다. '나까마'로 불리는 중간상인에 의해 베스트셀러급의 책도 할인가격으로 유통되고 있다. 출판사와 서점의 마진율경쟁, 그리고 왜곡된 유통체계가 책값의 정가제를 흔들고 있는 것이다. 게다가 출판시장이 개방되면 할인을 최후수단으로 삼겠다는 서점인도 많다.

This paper aimed to analyse dose sensitivity to the controllable parameters of indoor radon $(^{222}Rn)$ and its decay products (Rn-D) by applying the input~output linear system theory. Physical behaviors of $^{222}Rn\;&\;Rn-D$ were analyzed in terms of $(^{222}Rn)$ gas -generation, -migation and -infiltration to indoor environments, and the performance output-function, i. e. mean dose equivalent to Tracho-Bronchial (TB) lung region, was assessed to the following extented ranges of the controllable paramenters; a) the ventilation rate $constant({\lambda}_v)\;:\;0{\sim}50[h^{-l}].\;b)$ the attachment rate $constant({\lambda}_a)\;:\;0{\sim}500[h^{-l}].\;c)$ the unattached-deposition rate constant (${\lambda}^u_d)\;:\;0-50[h-l]$. A linear input-output model was reconstructed from the original models in literatures, as follows, which was modified into the matrices consisting of 111 nodal equations; a) indoor $^{222}Rn\;&\;Rn-D$ Behaviour; Jacobi-Porstendoerfer-Bruno model.

This study was conducted to find out the suitable gradient and length of the slope from the landslide of banking slope and cutting slope caused by rainfall. The survey was carried out on forest road built in 1986. And the period of survey was from June, 1989 to August, 1989 after dividing the forest road into A and B. The survey plots consisted of the 12 banking slopes and 6 cutting slopes. The results obtained from the study were summarized as follows; 1. The rate of landslide appeared 75% in A forest road, 50% in B forest road, and then the average 67% in A and B forest road. But the value of landslide showed considerably low. 2. Because of landslide chiefly occuring on banking slope of $36^{\circ}{\sim}38^{\circ}$ and on cutting slope of $42^{\circ}{\sim}43^{\circ}$, it is suitable to decide the banking slope and cutting slope below each $36^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$. 3. Landslide was the same on banking slopes through the length of slope. The best suitable length of slope is below 4m in cutting slope.

Semi-solid forging can be applied in industry only with enough knowledge of the effects of the forming parameters related with the process and their exact control which can be obtained by empirical or numerical methods. In the current study, the effects of process variables on semi-solid forging are discussed based on mainly numerical results. Die preheating temperature, initial solid fraction of the workpiece, and die velocity were selected as process variables, and numerical analyses using a rigid-thermoviscoplastic finite element approach that considered the release of latent heat due to phase change were carried out. In the analyses, a proposed flow stress material characterization and a solid fraction updating algorithm were employed. The obtained results from numerical analysis are discussed and are compared with some experimental observations.

A flow stress involving strain, solid fraction, and breakage ratio, and solid fraction updating algorithm were proposed to depict the deformation behavior of materials at the semi-solid state. In case of isothermally simple upsetting of Sn-15%Pb alloy at the semi-solid state, by comparing the results of finite element analysis with the existing experimental results, the reliability of both the developed flow stress and updating algorithm were investigated. It was found that the verified program can effectively be used in the rigid-viscoplastic finite element analysis of the semi-solid forging processes.

제방붕괴에 의한 홍수범람파에 의한 제내지의 위험은 수치모의 및 수리모형에 의해 관측되는 수심과 유속에 의해서만 정의되기 어렵다. 현재, 국내의 비구조물적인 대책으로 수치모의에 의해 계산되는 최대침수심 만을 홍수위험도로 산정하여 도시화하고, 홍수위험도를 제작하고 있다. 미국과 일본의 연구 및 비구조물적인 대책도 수치모의에 의한 최대침수심 산정결과만을 홍수위험도에 반영하고 있으므로, 유수에 의한 위험도를 다양하게 반영하지 못하고 있는 상황이다. 유럽의 연구결과를 살펴보면, 제방붕괴에 의한 위험은 빠른 유속과 수심의 복합적인 결과로 나타남을 알 수 있다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 유럽의 연구결과를 참고하여 수심과 유속의 복합적인 결과인 범람강도를 산정하여 제방붕괴 발생 후, 구조물 주변의 위험도를 산정하였다. 구조물의 배열 및 월류수심을 다양하게 변화시키며 구조물 주변의 수심, 유속 및 범람강도의 증가비율을 산정하여 비교하였다. 흐름특성변화율을 산정하여 비교한 결과, 수심과 유속을 각각 산정하여 도시하여 고찰할 수 없었던 구조물 사이 및 구조물 주변의 위험도를 산정할 수 있었다.

Abstract Infiltration of rainfall that may lead to reduce resistance force due to reduction of matric suction and to increase driving force due to increase of self weight makes the slope fail. There are many specifications to make slope stable based on factor of safety. Although result of slope stability analysis satisfy the specifications, slope failures triggered by rainfall are frequently occurred in reality because slope stability analysis cannot consider uncertainty of each soil properties. This is why conventional analysis has limitation and development of alternative method is needed. So it is suggested to adopt the reliability analysis rather than design based on factor of safety into designing safer structure. Through the evaluation of handicaps for the factor of safety based design, calculation of soil properties by site investigation, and reliability analysis considering distribution of each soil properties, distribution of failure probability in railway slope is obtained. Then, Risk assessment of slopes in Korean railway is executed from the results. Damage loss and incoming loss are considered as the loss. Using these results, it is possible to make proper countermeasure or efficient maintenance.
