Downhole testing and seismic CPT (SCPT) have been widely used to evaluate stiffness profiles of the subgrade. Advantages of downhole testing and SCPT such as low cost, easy operation and a simple seismic source have got these testings more frequently adopted in site investigation. For the automated analysis of downhole testing and SCPT, the concept of interval measurements has been practiced. In this paper. a new inversion procedure to deal tilth the interval measurements for the automated downhole testing and SCPT (including a newlydeveloped continuous SCPT) is proposed. The forward modeling in the new inversion procedure incorporates ray path theory based on Snell's law. The formulation for the inversion analysis is derived from the maximum likelihood approach, which estimates the maximum likelihood of obtaining a particular travel time from a source to a receiver. Verification of the new inversion procedure was performed with numerical simulations of SCPT using synthesized profiles. The results of the inversion analyses performed for the synthetic data show that the new inversion analysis is a valid procedure which enhances Va profiles determined by downhole testing and SCPT.

The pole transformer is one of the most important facility to insure the stability of electric power supply. which distributes electricity to customers directly. However there are a lot of defects which are caused by manufacturing fails(in 3 years) or deterioration (in 13 years), so we need a more improved transformer which insures quality. This thesis talks about the development of the new-type transformer using the hybrid insulation that is durable thermally, mechanically, and electrically. It would show how to lay out and produce the transformer using the hybrid insulation. And finally we are sure that we could increase the utilization rate of a transformer by 160% as compared with its own capacity through the overload test. Also, we carried out the examination about the short-circuit and insulation with a 100[kVA] model transformer, so that we expound the analysis of magnetic-mechanical forces intensity and the measure for improving short-circuit efficiency.

Five core sediments acquired from the Lake Shihwa are analyzed for variations of sedimentary environment and heavy metal pollution after the Shihwa seawall construction. The depositional environment of the study area is divided into anoxic, oxic and mixed suboxic conditions based on the C/N ratio and C/S ratios of organic matters. Controlling factors for redox condition are the water depth and the difference in industrial effluents supply. Correlations among geochemical elements (Mn, U, Mo) show a distinctive difference and thus can be used as an indicator of redox condition. The content of Al, Ti are dependent on the sediment characteristics, and the contents of heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb) indicate heavy metal pollution. The concentrations of heavy metals are higher near Shiswa-Banwol industrial complexies than the central part of Lake Shihwa. Especially, the accumulation of the heavy metal at the surface sediments near Shihwa-Banwol industrial complex are two to eight times higher than in the center of Lake Shihwa.

알루미늄과 그 합금은 내부식성(corrosion resistance)이 좋고, 밀도가 낮아 높은 연료소비 효율을 필요로 하는 항공기와 자동차 같은 운송수단의 내-외장 소재로 사용되고 있다. 또한 알루미늄의 높은 내부식성을 이용하여 철강소재의 부식을 방지하는 보호막으로도 폭 넓게 사용된다. 물리기상증착(physical vapor deposition)으로 알루미늄을 코팅하면 박막 성장 초기단계에서 핵(nucleus)을 형성하고, 형성된 핵을 중심으로 주상 구조(columnar structure)로 박막이 성장하는 것이 일반적으로 알려진 방식이다. 주상 구조의 알루미늄 박막은 주상정과 주상정 사이에 필연적으로 공극(pore)이 존재하게 되어 부식을 일으키는 물질이 박막으로 침투하게 되고, 부식 물질과 모재가 반응하여 공식(pitting corrosion)이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 스퍼터링(magnetron sputtering)을 이용하여 치밀한 조직을 갖는 알루미늄 박막을 코팅할 수 있는 공정을 개발하고, 치밀한 알루미늄 조직이 내부식성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 평가하였다. 기판은 냉연강판(cold rolled steel sheet)이 사용되었으며, 알루미늄 타겟의 순도는 99.999%, 크기는 직경 4"이었다. 냉연강판은 진공용기(vacuum chamber)에 장착하기 전에 계면활성제를 이용하여 표면에 존재하는 기름성분을 제거하였으며, 진공용기에 장착한 후에는 아르곤 가스를 이용하여 발생시킨 글로우 방전으로 표면에 존재하는 산화물을 제거하였다. 알루미늄 박막의 조직에 영향을 미치는 공정변수를 확인하기 위해서 스퍼터링 파워, 공정 온도, 공정 압력, 외부 자기장 세기 등의 공정 조건을 변화시켜 코팅을 실시하였다. 실험을 통해서 얻어진 최적 조건으로 알루미늄을 코팅할 경우, 알루미늄 bulk의 밀도와 비교하여 약 94.7%의 밀도를 갖는 알루미늄 박막을 코팅할 수 있었다. 알루미늄 박막이 약 3 ${\mu}$m의 두께로 코팅된 냉연강판의 내부식성 평가(salt spray test, 5% NaCl) 결과, 평가를 시작한 후 72시간 후에도 적청이 발생하지 않았다.

Electron microscopy of the tremolite-actinolite series amphiboles from the naturally occurring asbestos locality showed the morphological diversity including fibrous, acicular, and prismatic. Very thin, long, and flexible fibers of constant width form ropy bundles or mats. Acicular particles are slightly thick, long, elastic, and easily separated from the bundle of parallel rods. Acicular fragments of lower aspect ratio are formed during the crushing of the amphibole prism. Morphological features of the amphiboles are different depending on their localities and vary in a specimen. Morphological continuum between amphibole fiber and prism requires the establishment of reliable identification criterions and sample preparation protocol based on the relation between carcinogenicity and morphological features.

The evaluation of shear modulus (or shear wave velocity) profile of the site is very important in various fields of geotechnical engineering and various surface wave methods have applied to determine the shear wave velocity profiles and showed good performance. Surface wave methods evaluate the dispersion curve in the field and determine the shear wave velocity profile through the inversion process. In this paper, the automated inversion process using the genetic algorithm is developed for HWAW method which is one of surface wave methods recently developed. The proposed method uses the error function based on the wavelength domain dispersion curve and can determine the reliable shear wave velocity profile not only in shallow depth but also in deep depth. To estimate the validity of the proposed method, numerical simulations and field test were performed and the proposed method was applied to determine the shear wave velocity profiles. Through the numerical simulations and field applications, the promising potential of the proposed method was verified.

This paper dealt with the application of a numerical method developed by the authors using the matching method proposed in the previous paper on "The Nonlinear motions of cylinders(I)[16]", and Cauchy's theorem to the problems associated with hydrodynamic forces acting on a heaving cylinders translating in a calm water and also motions of cylinders in waves. In spectral method. body boundary condition in submerged case is satisfied exactly but one in floating case is not satisfied exactly. In the numerical code developed here, the boundary condition at the free-surface and body surface is satisfied exactly at its instaneous position. It is of interest to note that the present scheme could be applied to a free-surface-piercing body without experiencing a difficulty in the numerical convergence. The computed results are compared with other results([6], [12]).

The simulation of the field dynamic soil properties for soil modeling in the centrifuge test is important. In this study, the process of soil modeling based on the shear wave velocity profile is developed. From the resonant column test in each confining pressure, the shear wave velocity profile is expected and the modeling condition is determined by comparing it with that in the field. During the dynamic centrifuge test, the bender element test is performed for measuring the in-flight shear wave velocity profile, and the applicability of the proposed method was verified. This modeling method is applied to the centrifuge test of the Hualien Large-Scale Seismic test.

In the present work, wave transformation by vertical columns and its wave forces acting on them are discussed using a direct 3-D numerical model based on the VOF (Volume Of Fluid) method. The numerical results for wave transformations and wave forces are critically compared to an advanced experimental data, and provide the verification of the numerical model used in the present study. Overall model-data comparisons are good. After verification of the numerical model, it is used to simulate wave fields around dual vertical columns with arbitrary cross section, and the characteristics of nonlinear wave forces and wave transformations according to the variations of different cross section types of vertical columns, an interval of vertical columns and incident wave angle are discussed.

An integrity testing for stone columns was attempted using crosshole S-wave logging. The method is conceptionally quite similar to the crosshole sonic logging (CSL) for drilled piers. The critical difference in the logging is the use of S-wave rather than P-wave, which is used in CSL, because swave is the only wave sensing the stiffness of slower unbounded materials than water. An electro-mechanical source, which can generate reversed Swave signals, was utilized in the logging. The stone column was delineated using the S-wave travel times across the stone column, the S-wave velocity profile of the crushed stone($V_{cs}$-profile) and that of surrounding soil($V_s$-profile). In the calculation of $V_{cs}$-profile of the crushed stone, its friction angle and Ko (coefficient of lateral earth pressure at rest) are recommended to be used. The calculation of the column diameter is not much affected by the values of friction angle and Ko.
