In this study, the drag forces on a submerged square cylinder were analyzed using a three dimensional hydrodynamic model. The numerical results were compared with the experimental results to check the reliability of the numerical simulations, and the characteristics of the drag forces with the relative depths were analyzed by analyzing the pressure acting on the cylinder surface, which are normally difficult to measure experimentally. The numerical results showed that the drag forces acting on a submerged square cylinder originate mainly from the pressure forces, and component of the shear forces decreased with increasing relative depth. The pressure coefficient distributions showed that in the case of a low relative depth, a relatively high pressure was formed in the front of a cylinder, and a relatively low pressure was formed in the rear, which gives a high drag coefficient. In a high relative depth, the pressure in the front decreased and pressure in the rear increased, which is a similar phenomenon to that normally observed in two dimensional square cylinder flow. The effect of the static pressure was analyzed and the surface elevation difference between the front and rear zone of a cylinder has a limited effect on the drag forces. Finally, the numerical results showed that the drag forces acting on a submerged square are dominated by the dynamic pressure formed by three dimensional flow and the distribution of local surface elevation.

Assuming that tidal level is constantly changed with an amplitude of 10 meters and a cycle of 12 hours, the slope stability for a typical dyke is analysed. The variation of pore water pressure within the dyke during the tidal change is obtained using a computer program, FLUMP, which is incorporated with saturated-unsaturated and transient flow. The results show that the variation of free water surface and distribution of pore water pressure within the dyke during the tidal fluctuations can be clearly predicted with the computer program. When a tide is lowered to the minimum level, the predicted pressure head is higher than the level of the free water surface in some parts of the dyke; that is, excess pore water pressure is generated in a zone affected by the tidal change. Also an unsaturated zone which shows negative pore water pressure is temporally created when a tide is lowered. The shear strength of the zone can be predicted based on the proposal suggested by Fredlund et al. It is emphasized that the excess pore water pressure generated during tidal fluctuations and strength parameters for the unsaturated zone should be considered in analyzing the slope stability of dykes. When those are considered, the critical slip surface seems to be located below the free water surface obtained when a tide is at the lowest.

유사 입자의 크기는 유사의 특성 및 그에 따른 거동 변화에 중요한 영향을 미친다. Stokes 침강 속도 모형에서 유사의 침강 속도에 가장 많은 영향을 주는 인자는 유사의 크기인 것 또한 확인된다. 유사 입자의 크기가 약 $60{\mu}m$보다 작은 유사들은 알갱이 사이의 점착력을 무시할 수 없다. 이로 인해 유사들은 응집 현상을 겪으며 입자 본래의 크기보다 크기가 큰 플럭을 형성하는 점착성 유사로 분류된다. 응집 현상이란, 흐름 내 점착성을 띠는 일차입자(Primary Particle)가 응집과 파괴를 반복하며 플럭을 형성하는 현상을 뜻한다. 입자 간의 충돌을 통해 응집이 진행되며 난류 전단으로 인해 형성된 플럭의 파괴가 발생한다. 많은 연구에서 점착성 유사의 충돌을 야기하는 가장 지배적인 원리는 난류라 알려져 있다. 이러한 응집 현상으로 인하여 플럭의 크기와 밀도는 지속적으로 변화를 겪으며 비점착성 유사와 다른 특징들을 보인다. 흐름에 존재하는 유사의 이동은 이송-확산 방정식을 통해 표현된다. 이송-확산 방정식은 시간 변화에 따른 농도의 변화를 입자의 침강과 난류 및 유사 자체의 특징에 의한 확산으로 해석한다. 침강속도로 대변되는 이송과 달리, 확산은 난류흐름 내에서 유사가 확산되는 정도를 정량화하기 위한 인자가 요구된다. 난류에 의한 유사의 확산은 유사 자체 특성에 따른 물질 확산에 비하여 매우 큰 값을 가지며, 이를 확산 계수로 개념화 한다. 확산계수는 와점성계수와 Schmidt 수(${\sigma}_c$)의 비로 정의된다. ${\sigma}_c$는 난류의 점성과 난류로 인한 부유과정에 의해 유사가 확산되는 정도를 나타낸다. 이에 따라 ${\sigma}_c$의 변화가 유사의 부유 및 침강거동에 많은 영향을 미칠 것이라 판단되나, 국내외에서 수행된 연구 동향에서는 ${\sigma}_c$를 0.5부터 1.0 사이의 상수를 적용하여 수행되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 ${\sigma}_c$의 크기에 따라 달라지는 유사의 부유 및 침강 변화에 의한 총 부유량을 살펴보고자 한다. 유사의 점착성을 고려할 수 있는 1DV 수치 모형을 이용하여 비점착성 유사와 점착성 유사를 대상으로 수치연구를 수행하며, 유사의 크기 및 ${\sigma}_c$의 변화에 따른 총 부유량 경향을 살펴본다. 그 결과, 점착성 유사는 ${\sigma}_c$의 증가에 따라서 유사의 총 부유량이 증가하는 현상이 나타난 반면 비점착성 유사는 ${\sigma}_c$의 증가에 따라 유사의 총 부유량이 감소하는 경향이 나타났다. 그러나 크기가 아주 작은 비점착성 유사를 대상으로 수치 연구를 수행한 결과, ??에 따른 총 부유량의 경향은 유사의 점착성에서 기인하는 것이 아닌 입자의 크기로부터 야기되는 특성이라는 결론이 도출되었다.

점착성 유사는 비점착성 유사에 비해 1차입자의 크기가 작아 1차입자간의 점착력이 중요한 역할을 하는 유사를 말한다. 점착성 유사는 비점착성 유사에 비해 크기가 작아 입자의 전자기적 점착력의 영향을 무시할 수 없으므로 점착력으로 인해 입자들은 서로 응집하는 동시에 입자들 간의 충돌에 의하여 파괴되는 과정을 거친다. 이러한 응집과 파괴가 지속되는 일련의 과정을 응집현상이라 한다. 점착성 유사는 응집과정을 통해 일차입자보다 크기가 크며 수십 개에서 수천 개의 일차입자와 물의 덩어리인 플럭을 형성하게 된다. 흐름 내 존재하는 플럭의 응집현상에 가장 지배적인 영향을 미치는 인자로 난류 거동이 알려진 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 난류 거동에 따른 점착성 플럭의 입도분포 변화를 살펴보고자 하였으며, 점착성 유사 입도분포 모형을 개발하였다. 수치모형의 개발은 확률과정(또는 추계과정)의 개념을 바탕으로 한다. 점착성 유사의 응집현상을 구성하는 응집과정은 다양한 연구를 통해 메커니즘들이 규명된 것과 달리 파괴과정은 난류로 인해 발생하며 무작위한 것으로 여겨진다. 무작위한 플럭의 파괴과정을 확률과정으로 가정하고 매개변수 중 하나를 대수정규분포를 따르는 난수로 고려하였다. 개발된 모형의 검증은 연안지역에서 점착성 플럭의 거동을 측정한 연구결과와의 비교를 통해 수행하였으며, 흐름 유속의 연직분포와 유사 농도의 연직분포, 응집현상 이후 플럭의 평형크기와 입도분포가 모두 합리적으로 계산되는 것이 확인되었다. 더불어 모의 결과에서는 대수정규분포를 따르는 동일한 난수를 적용하였음에도 불구하고 하상으로부터 거리가 가까워짐에 따라 플럭입도분포가 단봉분포(Unimodal Distribution)와 이봉분포(Bimodal Distribution)가 모두 계산되는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 모형의 개발과정에서 플럭의 가능 최대 크기를 콜모고로브 길이규모로 제한한 것과 관련이 있다. 난류 흐름 내 존재하는 플럭의 크기가 응집현상을 통해 난류의 콜모고로브 길이규모까지 성장하는 경우, 난류의 전단응력이 급격하게 증가하여 파괴과정이 활발해지고 응집과정이 저하된다는 것은 널리 알려진 사실이다. 이러한 사실을 바탕으로 플럭의 가능최대 크기를 콜모고로브 길이규모로 제한하였으며, 하상으로부터의 거리에 따라 콜모고로브 길이규모의 변화로 인해 콜모고로브 길이규모 부근에서 하나의 최빈값이 추가로 나타나는 것으로 이해된다. 수치모의 결과로부터 얻어진 콜모고로브 길이규모와 입도분포 형태의 상관관계를 보다 정확하게 이해하기 위해 실측 자료들을 검토해 본 결과, 균질한 재료를 이용한 실험실 실험결과에서 플럭 이봉분포의 최빈값이 콜모고로브 길이규모와 일치하는 것이 확인되었다. 연안지역에서 측정을 수행한 자료들에서도 이봉분포 또는 다봉분포와 콜모고로브 길이 규모와의 상관성을 찾아볼 수 있었다.

The global focus on mitigating climate change has traditionally centered on carbon dioxide, but recent attention has shifted towards methane as a crucial factor in climate change adaptation. Natural settings, particularly aquatic environments such as wetlands, reservoirs, and lakes, play a significant role as sources of greenhouse gases. The accumulation of organic contaminants on the lake and reservoir beds can lead to the microbial decomposition of sedimentary material, generating greenhouse gases, notably methane, under anaerobic conditions. The escalation of methane emissions in freshwater is attributed to the growing impact of non-point sources, alterations in water bodies for diverse purposes, and the introduction of structures such as river crossings that disrupt natural flow patterns. Furthermore, the effects of climate change, including rising water temperatures and ensuing hydrological and water quality challenges, contribute to an acceleration in methane emissions into the atmosphere. Methane emissions occur through various pathways, with ebullition fluxes-where methane bubbles are formed and released from bed sediments-recognized as a major mechanism. This study employs Biochemical Methane Potential (BMP) tests to analyze and quantify the factors influencing methane gas emissions. Methane production rates are measured under diverse conditions, including temperature, substrate type (glucose), shear velocity, and sediment properties. Additionally, numerical simulations are conducted to analyze the relationship between fluid shear stress on the sand bed and methane ebullition rates. The findings reveal that biochemical factors significantly influence methane production, whereas shear velocity primarily affects methane ebullition. Sediment properties are identified as influential factors impacting both methane production and ebullition. Overall, this study establishes empirical relationships between bubble dynamics, the Weber number, and methane emissions, presenting a formula to estimate methane ebullition flux. Future research, incorporating specific conditions such as water depth, effective shear stress beneath the sediment's tensile strength, and organic matter, is expected to contribute to the development of biogeochemical and hydro-environmental impact assessment methods suitable for in-situ applications.

The objective of this study was to apply the vibration technique to reduce the viscosity of bonding adhesives and thereby compare the bond strength and resin penetration in enamel and dentin achieved with those gained using the conventional technique and vibration technique. For enamel specimens, thirty teeth were sectioned mesio-distally. Sectioned two parts were assigned to same adhesive system but different treatment(vibration vs. non-vibration). Each specimen was embedded in 1-inch inner diameter PVC pipe with a acrylic resin. The buccal and lingual surfaces were placed so that the tooth and the embedding medium were at the same level. The samples were subsequently polished silicon carbide abrasive papers. Each adhesive system was applied according to its manufacture's instruction. Vibration groups were additionally vibrated for 15 seconds before curing. For dentin specimen, except removing the coronal part and placing occlusal surface at the mold level, the remaining procedures were same as enamel specimen. Resin composite(Z250. 3M. U.S.A.) was condensed on to the prepared surface in two increments using a mold kit(Ultradent Inc., U.S.A.). Each increments was light cured for 40 seconds. After 24 hours in tap water at room temperature, the specimens were thermocycled for 1000cycles. Shear bond strengths were measured with a universal testing machine(Instron 4465, England). To investigate infiltration patterns of adhesive materials, the surface of specimens was examined with scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows: 1. In enamel the mean values of shear bond strengths in vibration groups(group 2, 4, 6) were greater than those of non-vibration group(group 1, 3, 5). The differences were statistically significant except AQ bond group. 2. In dentin, the mean values of shear bond strengths in vibration groups(group 2, 4, 6) were greater than those of non-vibration groups(group 1, 3, 5). But the differences were not statistically significant except One-Up Bond F group. 3. The vibration group showed more mineral loss in enamel and longer resin tag and greater number of lateral branches in dentin under SEM examination.

The objective of the study was to apply the vibration technique to reduce the viscosity of bonding adhesives and thereby compare the bond strength and resin penetration into dentinal tubules achieved with those gained using the conventional technique. Eighty-eight noncarious extracted human permanent molar teeth were sectioned to remove the coronal enamel and were embedded in 1-inch PVC pipe with acrylic resin. The occlusal surfaces were placed so that the tooth and the embedding medium were at the same level to form one flat surface, and the samples were subsequently polished with silicon carbide abrasive papers. The samples were randomly assigned to 4 groups(n=22). On Group 1 and 2, Single Bond(3M-ESPE, St. Paul, USA) was used, and on Group 3 and 4, One-Step(Bisco Inc., Schaumburg, USA) was used, and each was applied according to its manufacturer's instructions. For Group 2 and Group 4, vibration was applied with ultrasonic scaler for 10 seconds, and the adhesive was light-cured for 10 seconds. Resin composite was condensed on to the prepared surface in two increments using a mold kit(Ultradent Products Inc., USA) and each was light-cured for 40 seconds. After 24 hours in tap water at room temperature the specimens were thermocycled, and shear bond strengths were measured with a universal testing machine(Instron 4465, Canton, USA). To investigate infiltration patterns of the adhesive materials, the surface of specimen was examined with scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows. 1. The shear bond strengths of vibration groups(Group 2, Group 4) were significantly greater than those of the non-vibration groups(Group 1, Group 3)(p<0.05). 2. The shear bond strengths of Single Bond and One-Step were not significantly different (p>0.05). 3. The vibration groups showed greater number of resin tags in tubules and lateral branches under SEM.

The soil on the behavior of the nonlinear elastic work-hardening plasticity has a variety of stress paths due to the state of soil and the test conditions. The soil with a specific volume ${\upsilon}$ in principal stress space (${\sigma}_1$, ${\sigma}_2$, ${\sigma}_3$, and ${\upsilon}$v) displays the shape of an irregular hexagonal pyramid with an end cap. With variations of ${\upsilon}$ the size of the cap is changed but its shape remains unchanged and the movement of the cap is controlled by the increase or decrease of the plastic volumetric strain. By reflecting such a property of soil various cap models have been developed by researchers. In this thesis, a constitutive model of soil with a combination of the nonlinear elastic work-hardening plastic cap and the failure surfaces of Mohr-Coulomb (M-C cap model) has been developed. According to the the results of analyses using the work-hardening plastic cap model, the normally consolidated soil under shearing has experienced the work-hardening and plastic flow (movement of the cap). But in the shearing of the overconsolidated soil the elastic behavior is shown until the stress path has reached the failure surface and the cap does not move.

The thermal-hydrological-mechanical (T-H-M) behavior of rock mass surrounding a high-temperature cavern thermal energy storage (CTES) operated for a period of 30 years has been investigated by TOUGH2-FLAC3D simulator. As a fundamental study for the development of prediction and control technologies for the environmental change and rock mass behavior associated with CTES, the key concerns were focused on the hydrological-thermal multiphase flow and the consequential mechanical behavior of the surrounding rock mass, where the insulator performance was not taken into account. In the present study, we considered a large-scale cylindrical cavern at shallow depth storing thermal energy of $350^{\circ}C$. The numerical results showed that the dominant heat transfer mechanism was the conduction in rock mass, and the mechanical behavior of rock mass was influenced by thermal factor (heat) more than hydrological factor (pressure). The effective stress redistribution, displacement and surface uplift caused by heating of rock and boiling of ground-water were discussed, and the potential of shear failure was quantitatively examined. Thermal expansion of rock mass led to the ground-surface uplift on the order of a few centimeters and the development of tensile stress above the storage cavern, increasing the potential of shear failure.

We made 8 wt% silica dispersion system with fumed silica and photo curable acrylic monomer by beads mill process. These dispersions could be applied in organic/inorganic hybrid coating systems. These dispersions could be applied in organic/inorganic hybrid coating systems. The 4 species of photo curable acrylic monomer which was presence of hydroxyl group, different solubility parameter, and different molecular size were used in the silica dispersions. Stability of polar solvent, isopropyl alcohol, in silica dispersions was investigated. We investigated the stability of silica dispersions by using steady-state and dynamic rheology. As the monomer has hydroxyl group increased in mono and binary monomer silica dispersions, they showed non flocculated stable sol (loss modulus (G")> storage modulus (G')). When polar solvent IPA was added into slightly flocculated silica dispersions, they changed to non flocculated stable sol.
