In order to produce model ice sheets having targeted physical properties in accordance with the law of similitude, the ice model basin of Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering carries out a series of processes such as cooling, seeding, freezing, and tempering. Performance in ice field of ice going ships or marine structures is evaluated from model tests in ice conditions made out of a model ice sheet such as level ice, pack ice, brash ice, and ice rubble field, etc. In this study, we investigated effects of micro-bubble layers and seeding of ice nuclei included in the process generating a model ice sheet on change in physical properties of thickness, density, and flexural strength.

본 연구에서는 수리모형실험을 통하여 원형 다단 실린더 게이트 형식의 취수시설에서 발생하는 공기연행을 분석하였다. 수리모형실험의 원형은 경상북도 청도군에 위치한 운문댐의 "운문댐 안전성 강화사업"에서 계획되고 있는 신설취수탑을 기준으로 상사법칙은 Froude상사법칙을 적용하고 1/20의 모형 축척을 가지는 취수탑의 국부모형에 하류단 수위를 고려하기 위해 유량조절시설을 설치하여 실험을 실시하였다. 실험조건은 크게 두 가지로 구분하였으며, 수면으로부터 유입구 상단부까지의 거리 ∆h1(m)과 유입부 저수지 저류 수위와 하류단 유량조절시설간의 수위차인 ∆h2(m)이며, ∆h1에 대한 조건은 0.01m~0.06m로 0.01m 간격으로 6가지, ∆h2에 대한 조건은 0.10m~1.70m로 0.20m간격으로 9가지로 이를 조합하여 총 54개 CASE에 대해 진행하였다. 실험결과 공기연행 발생 시 그에 따른 영향을 평가하기 위해 발생 정도에 따라 미발생(Not Occur), 간헐적(Intermittent), 빈번한(Frequent), 지속적(Continuation), 공기 폭발(Air Explosion)로 분류하였으며, 각 공기연행 발생 시 취수유량의 감소율 및 영향을 분석한 결과 간헐적 공기연행 발생 시 최대 약 3.75%의 취수유량 감소, 빈번한 공기연행 발생 시 취수유량은 전체적으로 10%, 최대 약 13.19% 감소하였으며, 지속적 공기연행 발생 시 발생 이후 ∆h2증가에 의한 취수유량의 증가가 거의 이루어지지 않으며, 최대 56.25%의 취수유량이 감소, 공기 폭발 발생 시 취수유량의 영향은 지속적 발생과 비슷하나 관내 공기 포집 후 유입구로 방출 시 관에 강한 충격을 주어 안정성에도 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단되어, 이에 안정성 및 취수유량 감소율을 고려하여 빈번, 지속, 공기 폭발 발생 영역에서의 취수는 적합하지 않으며, 공기연행 미발생 및 간헐적 발생 영역에서의 취수 시 목표 취수유량이 1.00~4.00(㎥/s)일 때 ∆h1= 0.40m 이상, 4.00~9.30(㎥/s) 일 때 ∆h1= 0.60m 이상, 9.30~9.53(㎥/s) 일 때 ∆h1=0.80m 이상, 9.53~9.65(㎥/s) 일 때 ∆h1= 1.00m 이상에서 취수유량 감소율 3.75% 이내로 취수유량의 확보가 가능하다. 이러한 결과는 원형 다단 실린더 게이트 형식의 취수시설에 대해 취수 시 수면와류에 의한 Air Core와 그에 따른 공기연행의 발생 조건과 영향을 수리모형실험을 통해 확인함으로써 실제 운용 시 보다 안정적이고 효율적인 운용에 대한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 추가로 수치해석을 통한 비교 및 공기연행과 관내 공기포집 정도에 대한 연구를 통해 보다 정확한 자료제시가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The geometric patterns of a stream network in a drainage basin can be viewed as a "fractal" with fractal dimensions. Fractals provide a mathematical framework for treatment of irregular, ostensively complex shapes that show similar patterns or geometric characteristics over a range of scale. GIUH (Geomorphological Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph) is based on the hydrologic response of surface runoff in a catchment basin. This model incorporates geomorphologic parameters of a basin using Horton's order ratios. For an ordered drainage system, the fractal dimensions can be derived from Horton's laws of stream numbers, stream lengths and stream areas. In this paper, a fractal approach, which is leading to representation of a 2-parameter Gamma distribution type GIUH, has been carried out to incorporate the self similarity of the channel networks based on the high correlations between the Horton's order ratios. The shape and scale parameter of the GIUH-Nash model of IUH in terms of Horton's order ratios of a catchment proposed by Rosso(l984J are simplified by applying the fractal dimension of main stream length and channel network of a river basin. basin.

In order to understand evaluation of the seismic stability of a reinforced earth retaining, we made chambers of 1:10 (the ratio of the miniature), considering the law of similarity based on drawings of representative cross sections. And we measured an increase in acceleration, earth pressure, and displacement after applying Hachinohe wave (long period), Ofunato wave (short period), and artificial wave, complying with the domestic standards, in order to evaluate the external stability of the reinforced earth retaining wall during earthquake based on the measurements. As a result, the unreinforced earth retaining wall collapsed at 2 g of seismic acceleration. But the reinforced earth retaining wall was evaluated to ensure proper stability as well, with respect to the earth pressure gauge, the increments of earth pressure tend to be raised significantly in the upper than the lower and showed a similar characteristic of behavior in previous theory.

The objective of this study is to investigate the characteristics of elastic and inelastic bekavior of ductile momenting-resisting reinforced concrete frame subjected to reversed lateral loading such as earthquake excitations. For this purpose, a 2-bay 2-story reinforced concrete plane frame with seismic detail was designed and one 1/2.5-scale subassemblage was manufactured according to the required similitude law. Then, the reversed load test under the displacement control was performed statically to this subassemblage. Finally, the results of this test were analysed regarding to (1) the design load vs actual strength, (2) degradation in stiffness and strength. (3) failure mode or energy dissipation. (4) local deformations.

The centrifuge and 1-g shaking table tests were performed simultaneously to compare the dynamic behaviors of loose sands of the same geotechnical properties. The prototype soils were 10 m thick liquefiable loose sands. The geometric scaling factors were 20 for 1-g and 40 for centrifuge tests. The excess pore pressure, surface settlement, and acceleration in the soil were measured at the same locations in the 1-g and centrifuge tests. The total excess pore pressure from development to dissipation was measured. In the centrifuge test, viscous fluid was used as the pore water to eliminate the time scaling difference between dynamic time and dissipation time. In the 1-g tests, the steady state concept was applied to determine the unit weight of the model soil, and two different time scaling factors were applied for the dynamic time and the dissipation time. It is concluded that the 1-g tests can simulate the excess pore pressure of the prototype soil if the permeability of the model soil is small enough to prevent dissipation of excess pore pressure during shaking and the dissipation time scaling factor is properly determined.

This paper describes a study on the tearing damage of the ship's bottom plating during a grounding. It has been known widely that difference scaling laws are applied for bodies undergoing simultaneously plastic flow and crack propagation in the deformation of the plate tearing. Especially, the basic scaling law is not followed for the fracture. In this study plate cutting experiments for the geometrically similar models have been performed in order to verify the problem. From the experimental results, it has been observed that the cutting forces and energy for the larger models are significantly lower than those of the smaller models the damage become large. A simplified analytical method for the estimation of tearing is proposed based on the experiments and it has been observed that the results of the present formula are correlated very well with the experiments

This paper presents a laboratory investigation on the failure mechanism of geosynthetic reinforced slopes using 1/5-scale reduced model. The components of the model were selected with due consideration of the similitude law and the step-by-step actual wall construction procedure was closely simulated. The model tests successfully replicated the failure mechanism with relative density, slope and vertical spacing.

Many studies are conducted in several fields for fragility analysis of structures or elements which is a probabilistic seismic safety analysis in consideration with uncertainty of seismic loading. It is hard to directly conduct fragility analysis for an infrastructure with social importance due to its size. Therefore, a fragility analysis for an infrastructure mainly conducted in element level or conducted with scaled model built in accordance with similarity law. In this article, fragility analysis for prototype and scaled model of reinforced concrete column was conducted with numerical models which had been updated by the results of shaking table test and pseudo dynamic test. As a result, response stress from the numerical analysis result of prototype model was higher than that from scaled model due to different stiffness ratios between steel and concrete. However, the probability of failure for scaled model was higher than that for prototype model because failure criteria for scaled model was down due to similarity law. Also it was evaluated that probability of failure by using log normal standard deviation of response stresses by spectrum matched accelerograms was more reliable than probability of failure by using existing coefficient of variation normally used.
