자갈축열 태양열온실은 주간에 일사로 데워진 온실 내부공기를 온실하부에 설치된 자갈축열층사이로 강제순환시켜 자갈에 에너지를 축열한다. 이러한 축열과 방열과정을 통하여 겨울철 야간에 난방시스템으로 이용하고, 여름철에는 냉방효과를 꾀하게 된다. 온실내 공기가 축열층을 통과하는 동안의 열전달은 강제대류열전달이며, 이 경우 축열층내의 열이동은 축열층내 공기와 자갈표면온도가 초기에는 열적으로 평형상태로 존재하다가 순환공기의 온도상승에 따라 열전달이 일어나게 된다. (중략)

In this research, the effects of the gravel content on the liquefaction behavior for both of the isotropically and $K_0-anisotropically$ consolidated gravel-sand mixtures are investigated. for this purpose, the cyclic triaxial tests for the specimens with the same relative density (Dr=40%) and variations of gravel content were performed. On the other hand, a series of undrained cyclic triaxial tests were carried out on the isotropically consolidated gravel-sand mixtures with the same void ratio (e=0.7) and from 0% to 30% gravel contents. Void ratios of gravel-sand mixtures with the same relative density (Dr=40%) are found to decrease significantly with the increase of the gravel content from 0% to about 70% and increase thereafter. But the void ratio of the sand matrix among the gravel skeleton increases with the increase of the gravel contents. Test results are as follows : for the isotropically consolidated specimen with 40% of relative density and low gavel contents (GC=0%, 20%, 40%), pore water pressure development and axial strain behavior during undrained cyclic loading show similar behavior to those of the loose sand because of high void ratio, and the specimens with high gravel content (70%) both pore pressure and strata behaviors are similar to those of dense sand. And the isotropically consolidated specimens with the same void ratio (e=0.7) and higher gravel contents show the same behavior of pore water pressure and axial strain as that of the loose sand, but for the lower gravel content this behavior shows similar behavior to that of dense sand. The liquefaction strength of the isotropically consolidated specimens with the same relative density increases with gravel content up to 70%, and the strength decreases with the increase of the gravel content at the same void ratio. Thus, it is confirmed that the liquefaction strength of the gravel-sand mixtures depends both on relative density and void ratio of the whole mixture rather than the relative density of the sand matrix filled among gravels. On the other hand, the behavior of pore water pressure and axial strain for the $K_0-anisotropically$ consolidated gravel-sand mixtures shows almost the same cyclic behavior of the sand with no stress reversal even with some stress reversal of the cyclic loading. Namely, even the stress reversal of about 10% of cyclic stress amplitude, the permanent strain with small cyclic strain increases rapidly with the number of cycles, and the initial liquefaction does not occur always with less than maximum pore water pressure ratio of 1.0. The liquefaction resistance increases with the gravel contents between 0% and 40%, but tends to decrease beyond 40% of gravel content. In conclusion, the cyclic behavior of gravel-sand mixtures depends on factors such as gravel content, void ratio, relative density and consolidation condition.

Various sizes of gravels are included in the most field soils that are utilized for civil constructions. Especially, the small amounts of gravel are often included in selected soils for backfill materials, earth dams, and subbase ground. In such cases, the small amounts of mixed gravel and its shape may influence the determination of dry density of soils, which results in an inaccurate degree of compaction for soils in the field. In this study, a dry density of sand with various gravel contents (0, 10, 17, 23, 29 and 33%) and three different sizes (2.0-2.36, 3.35-4.75, 5.6-10.0 mm) was experimentally investigated for compacted or loosely packed conditions. The loosely packed sand with gravels was simulated by pouring sand into compaction mould and its density was determined. When a 33% of gravel content was mixed with sand, its dry density increased up to 15-20% for compacted specimen and 20-23% for loosely packed specimen. When a gravel content and size were the same, a dry density of compacted specimen was $0.1-0.16g/cm^3$ higher than that of loosely packed specimen. Even though the same gravel content was used, a dry density of sand with big gravels was $0.04-0.08g/cm^3$ higher than that of sand with small gravels for compacted specimen and $0.03-0.05g/cm^3$ for loosely packed specimen.

본 연구에서는 자갈사주의 식생 이입 과정을 밝히고, 식생 이입에 영향을 미치는 수리적 특성을 규명하기 위한 현지조사 방안을 제시하였다. 자갈사주의 식생이입은 조절 하천과 비조절 하천에서의 이입 과정이 다르며, 본 연구에서는 비조절 하천을 대상으로 하였다. 따라서 상류에 댐이나 저수지가 없는 자연에 가까운 하천을 고려하였으며, 장기적으로는 조절 하천의 식생이입 과정과의 비교를 위해 임하댐의 반변천과 가까운 길안천의 중류 구간을 선정하였다. 자갈사주의 식생이입 과정을 모니터링하기 위해, 자갈사주를 전구역과 세부구역으로 나누어 같은 지점에서 같은 배율로 사진을 촬영하였다. 전자는 자갈사주 전체를 대상으로 촬영하며, 이를 위한 view point 선정이 중요하고 선정에 적절한 지점을 제시하였다. 후자의 경우 식생의 이입 정도를 왕성, 보통, 미약, 없음(4단계)로 구분하기 위해 대상 지점을 matrix가 50% 이상인 지점 ; 식생이입 왕성 (2개 지점), matrix가 50% 이하인 지점 ; 식생이입 보통, 또는 미약 (2개 지점), matrix가 없는 자갈만의 지점 ; 식생이입 없음 (1개 지점)을 선정하였다. 식생이입에 영향을 미치는 변수로는 하상토의 입경과 흐름의 특성(수심, 유속, 하상 소류력 등)을 들 수 있으며, 이들 조사를 위한 방법을 제시하였다.

A ballast-flying probabilitie is suggested for various ballast types, heighter types and underbody flow conditions as train speeds. The average speed of measured points is converted to the ballast-flying probabilities of BFPF which come from wind tunnel test data. Underbody flow fields are numerically simulated for the various conditions. The results show that the ballast-flying probability is steeply increased as train speed increased, and reaches a value of 87% at 350 km/h train speed. And the differences of probabilities among the ballast shapes are considerably high. The upper surface of heighter or tie is most probable area. Through this study, the ballast-flying Sensitivities with heighter was defined to understand the characteristics of ballast-flying probability on various conditions. And the ballast-flying probability can be reduced by the heighter.

자갈축열 태양열 온실에 있어 여름철 냉방에너지의 효과적인 절감 방안을 모색하고자 축열 및 배기시스템의 작동방식을 다르게 하여 주ㆍ야간 축열과 방열시 자갈축열층의 온습도환경을 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 주간에 외기온이 28.5$^{\circ}C$-35.3$^{\circ}C$범위에서 변화할 때 자갈축열층내로 유입되는 공기의 온도는 30.5$^{\circ}C$-36.2$^{\circ}C$, 자갈축열층에서 온실내부로 유출되는 공기의 온도는 28.2$^{\circ}C$-30.1$^{\circ}C$, 축열층 내부온도는 27.4$^{\circ}C$-35.9$^{\circ}C$ 범위였다. 또한, 10시간 축열시 자갈축열층 내부온도는 측점에 따라 1.7$^{\circ}C$-7.$0^{\circ}C$의 온도상승이 있었으며 유입구에서 멀어질수록 축열층 온도는 낮게 나타났으며 온도상승 속도 또한 감소하는 경향으로 나타났다. 그리고, 야간에 축열시스템을 작동하지 않고 배기팬만을 작동하였을 경우, 외기온이 27.4$^{\circ}C$-34.4$^{\circ}C$범위일 때 자갈축열층 내부온도는 29.7$^{\circ}C$-34.9$^{\circ}C$(평균 31.4$^{\circ}C$)범위였으며 온실외부에 설치되어 있는 배기구와 배기팬의 영향으로 축열층 내부온도는 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소하는 경향으로 나타났으며 측점에 따라 2.2$^{\circ}C$-5.1$^{\circ}C$(평균 2.8$^{\circ}C$)의 온도하강 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 여름철 주간에 10시간 축열시 자갈축열층 내부습도는 측점에 따라 8.1%-26.3%의 감소현상이 있었다. 또한, 유입구에서 멀어질수록 축열층 습도는 높게 나타났으며 습도하강속도 또한 감소하는 경향으로 나타나 유입구에서 멀어질수록 외부습도의 영향을 적게 받는 것으로 분석되었다. 하지만, 야간에는 배기시스템의 영향으로 자갈축열층의 습도는 외기의 영향을 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다.

겨울철 난방에너지와 여름철 냉방에너지 절감을 위한 자갈축열 태양열 온실의 설계자료를 얻고자 모형 자갈축열층과 이론적 해석을 통하여 축열층의 공기유동성 및 자갈축열층의 축열성능을 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 압출식으로 공기를 유동시켰을 경우 축열층내 풍속은 0.09-l.50㎧(평균 0.60㎧)범위였으며, 흡인식으로 공기를 유동시켰을 경우 축열층내 풍속은 0.15-0.90㎧(평균 0.46㎧)범위로 평균풍속은 압출식이 높게 나타났으나 축열층 가운데에서는 흠인식이 약 0.06㎧정도 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 자갈축열층내 공기순환을 위한 별도의 파이프 매설은 불필요한 것으로 판단된다. 2. 자갈축열층의 공극율이 증가할수록 축열량은 감소하였으며 순환팬 용량과 공극율에 따라 평균 2,133㎉/h-3,243㎉/h 정도 축열량 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 공극율이 0.45인 경우 축열층의 높이가 높을수록 자갈축열층의 온도는 서서히 증가하였으며, 축열층 높이 60cm이하에서는 축열 7시간이후부터는 축열량 변화를 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 4. 이러한 결과를 모형축열층에 있어 실험적으로 구해지는 축열 자갈층의 온도 및 축열량과의 비교 검증단계를 거쳐 온실규모에 필요한 적정 축열시스템을 산정할 수 있는 시뮬레이션 프로그램의 기초자료로 활용하고자 한다.

Recent researches on the behavior of gravelly soils have been focused mainly on the relative density or on the gravel content. And some researchers presented the liquefaction behavior based on the relative density whereas others based on the gravel content of gravelly soil. However the relative densities vary with gravel content and relative density is not enough to fully express the behavior of gravelly soils. Therefore in this research state parameter which considers void ratio and effective confining pressure is introduced and Steady State Line(SSL) of gravelly soils for various gravel content are determined by undrained triaxial tests in order to express the behavior of gravelly soils. From the research the position of SSL moved downward with gravel content. And the same density of soil showed dense sand behavior or loose sand behavior depending upon the confining pressure. Especially relative density 80% of gravelly soil showed loose sand behavior under high confining pressure. However the gravelly soils with similar state parameters showed similar stress behaviors. It can bee seen that state parameter is useful tool to evaluate undrained behavior of gravelly soils. Also state parameter and undrained strength showed good correlations.

Ballasted track has been used as track system for more than 100 years. Ballasted track has advantages of low construction cost, flexible maintenance, low noise and vibration, and so on. However, ballasted track leads to continuous settlement which causes maintenance. Recently, increase in speed, traffic volume, and weight of train requires more frequent maintenance. Fouling, well-known phenomenon of accumulation of fine materials due to intrusion of subgrade and breakage of ballast materials, expedites the settlement (i.e., irregular settlement) of track. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) can be one of non-destructive tools that can evaluate fouling level of ballast. In this paper, a gain function based on the attenuation characteristics of ballast material is suggested in conjunction with Hilbert transform. Lab box tests and full-scale tests indicate that the suggested method reasonably classifies clean, fouled layers, and subgrade. However, additional study to eliminate effect of sleeper and to include the scattering features of the electromagnetic wave in ballast voids should be required in order to enhance the accuracy.

Textural analysis of gravels of raised beach (old beach) in the Weaver Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica has been carried out as a first part study among 20 other sites surveyed in the Weaver Peninsula and Barton Peninsula, King George Island. The raised beach described as WP-5 in this paper is 3.95 m higher than the present beach in elevation. And it is described as old beach. The beach shows typical subenvironment, that is, beach berm and beach face. Mean size, mean roundness and mean sphericity of gravels from beach berm are -4.10ø, 0.44 and 0.66 respectively. However, mean size, mean roundness and mean sphericity from beach face are -4.23ø, 0.41 and 0.67 respectively. In particular, it seems to be worthy to note the differences of textural parameters between Antarctic glacio-marine beach gravels and temperate and normal marine beach gravels. Under such conception the present study wishes to show only textural parameters, i.e., size, roundness, sphericity and shape obtained from the analysis of Antarctic glacio-marine beach gravels.
