일반적으로 자연하천에서는 횡방향 흐름저항 요소가 매우 다를 수 있다. 이러한 하천은 흐름저항 요인에 따라 몇 개의 소단면으로 구분될 수 있으며, 1차원 해석을 위해서는 단면 전체를 대표하는 복합 조도계수(composite roughness coefficient)를 사용함으로써 수위 또는 평균유속의 계산이 가능해 진다. 복합 조도계수는 각 소단면의 면적(A), 윤변(P), 또는 동수반경(R)을 적절히 조합하여 각 소단면의 조도계수에 가중치를 부여하면서 계산되는데, 각 산정식들의 개발과정에 도입된 가정 조건에 따라 상이한 가중치를 부여하게 되며, 일부 산정식들에서는 횡방향으로 동일한 재료로 구성된 조건에서도 복합 조도계수 산정 결과는 하상재료에 의한 조도계수와 다른 값을 산정하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 13개의 기존 복합 조도계수 산정식을 이론적으로 검토하였고, 소규모 실내 수리실험자료로부터 실측 복합 조도계수와 계산된 값을 비교 분석하였으며, 소단면 분할방법에 의한 기존 산정식의 적용성을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 윤변을 가중치로 사용하는 경우는 실측 복합 조도계수 그리고 각 산정식에 의한 계산 복합 조도계수의 차이가 비교적 작게 나타났으나 각 산정식의 가정조건에 유의하여야 하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 단면적 또는 윤변과 동수반경을 조합하여 가중치로 사용하는 경우는 방법별로 큰 차이를 보이는 것으로 분석되었고, 그 원인은 단면분할 방법에 기인하므로 이러한 방법을 적용할 경우에는 소단면 분할방법에 특히 주의하여야 함을 알 수 있다.

Tetrapod has been used as the armor blocks of most rubble mound breakwaters constructed in Korea. The Hudson formula has been widely used in the design of breakwater armor blocks in Korea. In the present study, we calculate the load and resistance partial safety factors of the Hudson formula for Tetrapod armors. The partial safety factors were calculated for the typical breakwater cross-sections of 12 trade harbors and 8 coastal harbors in Korea. The mean and standard deviation of them were also calculated. The mean values were compared with the partial safety factors of US Army (2006). The load and resistance factors are slightly smaller and larger, respectively, than the US Army values. However, the overall safety factors obtained by multiplying the load and resistance factors are close to the US Army values. The result of the present study could be used as the basic data to propose authorized partial safety factors in the future.

The shear stiffness has become an important design parameter to understand the soil behavior. In particular, the elastic moduli and void ratio has been considered as important parameters for the design of the geotechnical structures. The objective of this paper is the development of the penetration type Field Velocity and Resistivity Probe (FVRP) which is able to assess the elastic moduli and void ratio based on the elastic wave velocities and electrical resistivity. The elastic waves including the compressional and shear wave are measured by piezo disk elements and bender elements. And the electrical resistivity is measured by the resistivity probe, which is manufactured and installed at the tip of the FVRP. The penetration tests are carried out in calibration chamber and field. In the laboratory calibration chamber test, after the sand-clay slurry mixtures are prepared and consolidated. The FVRP is progressively penetrated and the data are measured at each 1 cm. The field experiment is also carried out in the southern part of Korea Peninsular. Data gathering is performed in the depth of 6~20 m at each 10 cm. The elastic moduli and void ratio are estimated based on the analytical and empirical solutions by using the elastic wave velocities and electrical resistivity measured in the chamber and field. The void ratios based on the elastic wave velocities and the electrical resistivity are similar to the volume based void ratio. This study suggests that the FVRP, which evaluates the elastic wave velocities and the electrical resistivity, may be a useful instrument for assessing the elastic moduli and void ratio in soft soils.

As part of study to develop LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design) codes for foundation structures in Korea, resistance factors for static bearing capacity of driven steel pipe piles were calibrated in the framework of reliability theory. The 57 data sets of static load tests and soil property tests conducted in the whole domestic area were collected and these load test piles were sorted into two cases: SPT N at pile tip less than 50, SPT N at pile tip equal to or more than 50. The static bearing capacity formula and the Meyerhof method using N values were applied to calculate the expected design bearing capacities of the piles. The resistance bias factors were evaluated for the two static design methods by comparing the representative measured bearing capacities with the expected design values. Reliability analysis was performed by two types of advanced methods: the First Order Reliability Method (FORM), and the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) method using resistance bias factor statistics. The target reliability indices are selected as 2.0 and 2.33 for group pile case and 2.5 for single pile case, in consideration of the reliability level of the current design practice, redundancy of pile group, acceptable risk level, construction quality control, and significance of individual structure. Resistance factors of driven steel pipe piles were recommended based on the results derived from the First Order Reliability Method and the Monte Carlo Simulation method.

A new approach of estimating the coefficient of permeability (COP) from resistivity has been developed, which can provide another good application tool of geophysical methods to geo-technical field. Borehole electrical logging and Lugeon test results in Yangsan area showed that resistivity is inversely proportional to the COP. For granite and andesite in Yansan area, the relation between the resistivity ($\rho$) and the COP (k) revealed that, $log(k){\approx}-0.85621\;log({\rho})+0.0031$. Derived relation is applied to AMT data acquired from a survey line along the tunnel. Two-dimensional resistivity distribution from AMT data was converted to two-dimensional COP section. The final COP section can be used as good input data for groundwater modeling.

This study is derived relationships of the resistance coefficients of Darcy-Weisbach and Manning for flow resistance and the dimensionless velocity using many field measurements for 1,875 rivers consist of sand 179, gravel 992, cobble 651 and boulder 53 channels in natural rivers, respectively. The relationships of power law forms are developed as a function of flow discharge, friction slope, and relative submergence by the regression and the semi-empirical method. The measurements distribution of Manning resistance coefficients by the Box-Whisker Plots show the values which ranges from 0.004~0.151 for sand, 0.008~0.250 for gravel, 0.015~0.327 for cobble, 0.023~0.444 for boulder in natural rivers, respectively. Relationships of these semi-empirical and resistance coefficients will be useful to give information in hydraulic engineering.

돌출줄눈은 산지하천의 만곡부의 빠른 유속을 감소시키기 위하여 활용된다. 본 연구에서는 친환경 디자인의 나무줄기 돌출줄눈(Tree Trunk Rip, TTR)과 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈(Trapezoid Rip, TR)의 흐름저항을 비교 분석하기 위하여 개수로 수리실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 길이 9m, 폭이 0.6m이며 경사가 0.0035로 고정된 개수로의 한쪽 측벽에 돌출줄눈을 설치하여 진행하였다. 사다리 꼴 돌출줄눈의 형상은 밑변 각이 $63^{\circ}$이며 무차원 설치간격 ${\lambda}_{nv}$가 6, 9, 12인 경우이다. 나무줄기 돌출줄눈의 기본 형상은 사다리꼴이고 표면은 나무껍질 무늬이며 ${\lambda}_{nv}$가 약 10이다. 나무줄기 돌출줄눈의 간격은 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈의 최적 설치 간격 9~12배 범위에 해당되고 평균 마찰계수는 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈의 9~12배의 평균 마찰계수 범위에 포함되었다. 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈의 ${\lambda}_{nv}$가 9, 12일 때의 전체 저항에 대한 형상저항의 비는 평균 $69.4{\pm}5.8%$였으며 나무줄기 돌출줄눈은 $70.2{\pm}2.1%$로 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈과 유사하다. 산지하천 흐름저항을 위한 돌출줄눈 설치에 있어 친환경적 디자인을 고려한 나무줄기가 사다리꼴 돌출줄눈보다 활용도가 클 것으로 기대된다.

In the present paper, the effects of initial crack location on spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth resistance (FCGR) in friction stir welded (FSWed) AA7075-T651 plates were studied. The objective of this study is to characterize the statistical properties of FCGR for three different types of initial crack location (ICL) specimens. In this work, the FCGR coefficients were treated as a spatial random process. It was found that the FCGR coefficients for all initial crack location specimens closely followed a two parameter Weibull distribution. The shape parameter of the Weibull distribution for BM-ICL specimens showed the largest value of 7.50, and that for the WM-ICL specimens showed the smallest value of 2.61. In addition, the autocorrelation functions for all the ICL specimens followed the exponential function.

In this study, the statistical characteristics of the resistance bias factors were analyzed using a high-quality field load test database, and the total resistance bias factors were estimated considering the soil uncertainty and construction errors for the application of the limit state design of aggregate pier foundation. The MLR model by Bong and Kim (2017), which has a higher prediction performance than the previous models was used for estimating the resistance bias factors, and its suitability was evaluated. The chi-square goodness of fit test was performed to estimate the probability distribution of the resistance bias factors, and the normal distribution was found to be most suitable. The total variability in the nominal resistance was estimated including the uncertainty of undrained shear strength and construction errors that can occur during the aggregate pier construction. Finally, the probability distribution of the total resistance bias factors is shown to follow a log-normal distribution. The parameters of the probability distribution according to the coefficient of variation of total resistance bias factors were estimated by Monte Carlo simulation, and their regression equations were proposed for simple application.
