In case of tunnel construction with a shallow soil cover in cohesionless soils or highly weathered rocks, reinforcement measures are required for a tunnel stability during the tunnel construction. Recent developments show that the use of Umbrella Arch Method(UAM) as tunnel reinforcement and water cut-off in domestic projects has increased. Unfortunately, guidelines for the design and construction of UAM have not been established, only empirical designs and applications in tunnel construction have been performed so far. In this study, behaviour of the steel pipes installed on the tunnel roof was analyzed through the monitoring of bending and axial stresses of the pipes with the advance of the tunnel face. The monitoring results were used in the establishment of the loading mechanism around the pipe. This paper suggests, the guidelines used in the determination of the total length, overlapping length and lateral spacing of the reinforcing pipes obtained from the established loading mechanism.

This paper describes external and internal stability of reinforced earth wall using large-scale modular block and geogrid reinforcement. The evaluation for external and internal stability was conducted to analyze effect of wall height, reinforced soil (or backfill soils) and reinforcement strength. The external stability showed that the analysis cases were satisfied with design criteria, when the required minimum length and vertical spacing of reinforcement were 0.7H and 1m, respectively. The internal stability conformed that some cases were satisfied with design criteria in $25^{\circ}$ of internal friction angle of reinforced soil. Expecially, it will be applicable as wall structure considering a structural stability and economic efficiency based on evaluation of internal stability.

실용적인 표면영상유속계를 만들기 위해서는 적절한 하드웨어와 소프트웨어로 시스템을 구성해야 한다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 하드웨어로 CCTV를 선택하고, 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 지속적으로 읽어들이도록 구성하였다. 한편, 소프트웨어적으로는 11변수 투영법을 적용하여 변화하는 수위에 따라 정확한 측정점을 재구성하도록 하고, 아울러 각 측정점에서 주흐름방향으로 정확한 시공간영상을 작성하고, 이 시공간영상(spatio-temporal image)들을 분석하였다. 그결과, 5분 간격으로 촬영된 1분 길이의 영상을 지속적으로 촬영하고 분석하여 유량을 산정하는 표면영상유속계측 시스템을 구축하였다. 본고에서는 이러한 소프트웨어 개선방향중 하나인 주흐름방향의 시공간영상 작성법을 소개한다. 먼저, 11변수 투영법을 이용하여 하천의 표면영상에 대한 좌표변환계수를 산정하였다. 그리고 이 좌표변환계수를 이용하여, 하천의 수위변화에 따라 표면영상내의 측정점이 적절히 수정될 수 있도록 하였다. 그 다음 이 측정점에서 측정횡단면과 수직이 되는 방향을 선정하고, 이 방향이 영상내에서 하천 측정횡단면과 수직인 방향, 즉 주흐름방향이 되도록 하였다. 촬영된 1분간의 동영상의 각 측정점 위치에서 잘라낸 시공간체적(spatio-temporal image volume)에서 주흐름방향의 시공간영상을 잘라내고 이를 상호상관법이나 고속푸리에변환을 이용하여 분석하였다. 이 때 만들어진 시공간영상은 주흐름방향과 정확하게 일치하여, 기존의 표면영상유속계의 문제이던, 일부 측정점의 유속벡터가 주흐름방향과 일치하지 않던 문제를 해결할 수 있었다. 개발된 방법으로 표면영상유속계를 제작하여 인수천에 시험 설치하고 호우 사상에 대해 검토한 결과 정확하고 신속하며 연속적인 유량측정이 가능하였다.

Aerodynamic noise generated by the surrounding flow of a train traveling at high speed affects both outdoor and indoor noise. This study's goal is to develop a test method to measure and quantitatively evaluate aerodynamic noise through pressure perturbation data on the train surface. To accurately evaluate aerodynamic noise, it is important to separate and evaluate the compressive and incompressible pressure fluctuations mixed in the acquired surface pressure fluctuation data. This is because the noise transmission characteristics of the two pressure fluctuations are different. First, the installation length and interval of the microphone were determined to acquire surface pressure fluctuation data, and wavenumber-frequency analysis was performed to separate incompressible pressure fluctuation and compressible pressure fluctuation to obtain a sound pressure level spectrum. Finally, as a result of comparing the test results measured in the train head and trail, It was confirmed that the pressure fluctuation on the train head surface was greater than that on the tail.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the High Rate Spiral Clarifier(HRSC) availability for the improvement of polluted retention pond water quality. A lab scale and a pilot scale test was performed for this. The fluid flow patterns in a HRSC were studied using Fluent which is one of the computational fluid dynamic(CFD) programs, with inlet velocity and inlet diameter, length of body($L_B$) and length of lower cone(Lc), angle and gap between the inverted sloping cone, the lower exit hole installed or not installed. A pilot scale experimental apparatus was made on the basis of the results from the fluid flow analysis and lab scale test, then a field test was executed for the retention pond. In the study of inside fluid flow for the experimental apparatus, we found out that the inlet velocity had a greater effect on forming spiral flow than inlet flow rate and inlet diameter. There was no observable effect on forming spiral flow LB in the range of 1.2 to $1.6D_B$(body diameter) and Lc in the range of 0.35 to $0.5L_B$, but decreased the spiral flow with a high ratio of $L_B/D_B$ 2.0, $Lc/L_B$ 0.75. As increased the angle of the inverted sloping cone, velocity gradually dropped and evenly distributed in the inverted sloping cone. The better condition was a 10cm distance of the inverted sloping cone compared to 20cm to prevent turbulent flow. The condition that excludes the lower exit hole was better to prevent channeling and to distribute effluent flow rate evenly. From the pilot scale field test it was confirmed that particulate matters were effectively removed, therefore, this apparatus could be used for one of the plans to improve water quality for a large water body such as retention ponds.

In this study, we investigate the characteristics of the drag reduction of a circular cylinder having a detached splitter plate at the wake side. We measure the fluid force on a circular cylinder and visualize the field using particle image velocimetry (PIV) with a high Reynolds number, Re = 10,000. The experimental paraeters used were the width ratios (H/B = 0.5~1.5) of splitters to the prism width and the gap ratios (G/B = 0~2) between the prism and the splitter plate. The drag-reduction rate of the circular cylinder increased with H/B in the case of the same G/B, and it increased and then decreased with G/B in the case of the same H/B. The vortices of the opposite direction on the upper and lower sides of the detached splitter plate were generated by installing the plate. Reverse flow was caused by the vortices at the wake region of the circular cylinder, and the drag of the circular cylinder was decreased by the reverse flow.

Seismic refracrion and reflection surveys were conducted along an E-W trending track of 482 m long in Ilwall-dong, Pohang. End-on spread was employed as source-receiver configuration with 2 m for both geophone interval and offset. Seismic data were acquired using 24 channels at every shot fired every 2 m along the track. Refraction data were interpreted using equations for multi-horizontal layers. Reflection data were processed in the sequence of trace edit, gain control, CMP sorting, NMO correction, mute, common offset gathering, and filtering to produce a single fold seismic section. There are two layers in shallow subsurface of the study area. Upper layer has the P-wave velocities ranging from 267 to 566 m/s and is interpreted as a layer of unconsolidated sediments. Lower layer has P-wave velocities of 1096-3108 m/s and is interpreted as weathered rock to hard rock. Most of the lower layer classified as soft rock. Upper layer has lateral variations in both P-wave velocity and thickness. The upper layer in the eastern part of the seismic line is 3-5 m thick and has P-wave velocity of 400 m/s in average. The upper layer in the western part is 8-10 m thick and has P-wave velocity of 340 m/s in average. The eastern part is interpreted as unconsolidated beach sand, while the western part is interpreted as infilled soil to develop a construction site. Three fault systems of high angle are imaged in seismic reflection section. It is interpreted that the area between these fault systems are relatively safe. Large buildings should be located in the safe ground condition of no fault and footings should be designed to be in the basement rock of 3-10 m deep below the surface.

This study was conducted to clarify the hydrological characteristics of subsurface flow through a soil matrix and macropores. The research facility was set up in a 20m-1ong trench excavated down to bedrock at the base of a hillslope in the Panola catchment under USGS Georgia district. 13 macropores were found on the trench face and 6 major macropores were monitored. Matrix and macropore flow were measured during 95.5mm rainfall on March, 6 to 7. 1996. Macropore flow had great influence on formation of peak flow because the delivery time to Peak flow of macropore flow were faster about 10hrs than those of matrix flow. Matrix flow continued to recess for 3 days. On the other hand, macropore flow stopped within 12hrs after the event ceased. This means that matrix flow controls the recession part. The spatial variations of matrix and macropore flow between each trough and collector were very large by a wide range of 8,655.3 $\ell$ to 17.8 $\ell$ . The bed rock surface topography relates closer with the spatial variations of the flow than the surface one.

The construction of experimental greenhouses, operating test, and analysis on variation of different environment factors were conducted to provide fundamental data for design of Korean style air-inflated double-layer plastic greenhouse. The development of technology of attaching plastic to the structure and fasteners to be able to keep airtight was required in order to maintain proper static pressure in air space of double layer coverings. The insulation effect of air inflated greenhouse was better than conventional type. The temperature of arch type roof was greater about $2^{\circ}C$ than peach type roof in air inflated greenhouse. It was recommended that the plastic should be attached at the edges without clearance length in order to ease installation and raise airtightness of double layer coverings. The transmittance of arch type roof was greater than peach type in air inflated one span greenhouse. The transmittance of air inflated greenhouse was greater than conventional type due to frame ratio and distance between double layers in three span greenhouse. The condensation occurred on conventional type greenhouse was more than air inflated type. It was required to examine for a long time in order to analyze it quantitatively.
