그라우팅으로 지반 개량된 조간대 퇴적층의 지층구조를 규명하기 위한 방법으로 전기비저항탐사, 굴절법 탄성파탐사, 지하레이더탐사를 실시하였다. 연구대상 지반의 10m 전후 심도에서 해수의 영향을 받는 수평의 저비저항대가 발달하며, 저비저항대는 모래가 우세한 지층에 해당한다. 지반의 탄성파 속도는 1~3km/sec의 범위로 조간대의 미고결 퇴적층과 비교할 때 매우 높은 속도에 보여준다. 지반의 높은 속도는 지반 개량의 효과로 판단된다. 지하레이더탐사에서 퇴적층의 구성 물질에 따라 교반 정도가 달지는데 모래층은 퇴적물과 주입제의 교반이 잘 이루어져 불규칙한 반사면으로 나타나며, 점토층은 교반이 불량하여 개량된 부분은 주상으로 관찰된다. 물리탐사의 결과와 시추조사를 대비할 때 지반 개량은 기반암까지 시행되었으며, 양호한 암반을 지시하는 고비저항대와 고속도층은 내륙으로 갈수록 깊은 심도를 보여준다. 이것은 지반 개량 이전의 기반암 심도와는 상반되는 것으로 지반 개량의 효과는 해안방면의 지층에서 잘 나타난다.

지하탐사 레이더를 이용한 고 건축물의 목재 기등에 대한 비파괴 검사에 응용 가능성을 조사하였다. 실험실에 공동이 존재하는 목재 기둥을 마련하고, 자체 설계 및 제작한 안테나로 구성한 지하탐사 레이더 시스템을 이용하여 기둥 축 방향으로 안테나를 이동시키면서 펄스의 송수신 특성을 측정하였다. 측정에 사용한 펄스와 목재 기둥의 전기적 특성, 안테나, 급전선 등 레이더 시스템 전체를 3차원 FDTD로 모델링하였다. 측정과 동일한 상황에 대한 FDTD 해석결과와 측정자료가 부합됨을 입증하였다. 목재 기둥과 공동간의 낮은 유전율 차이도 쉽게 탐지할 수 있음을 보임으로써 향후 지하탐사 레이더를 고건축물의 비파괴 검사에 효과적으로 응용할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

In modern society, as to the underground urban infrastructure facilities(communication electricity water and sewage gas etc.) were contained many risks because of excavating. The exact position of underground facilities and the attribute information should be built in order to prevent accidents. As the result of analyzing the public surveying results from 2004 to 2009, it shows that low detecting rate of water pipeline which is only 52.4%, because the exploration of electromagnetic induction only detect metal pipeline and positioning survey only detect new pipeline before burying. Therefore development and verification of the correct and efficient exploration techniques are needed to improve the detecting rate. In this study, determined based on the location measurement results for the non-metal pipes and metal pipes before burial. It was compared with values that obtained through the ground penetrating radar and electromagnetic induction detecting. As a result, detecting rate of the concrete section showed a 100%, unpaved section showed a 94.7%, asphalt section showed 60%. So it confirmed the applicability of the ground penetrating radar at underground facilities detecting.

Because of numerous mountain region, agricultural affairs work can't be done without groundwater in Kangwon Do area. Especially to improve high mountain area vegetable quality and raise income offarmers, both of groundwater and hydrothermal system to keep adequate temperature in hot and coldseason have to be developed. Domestic groundwater was developed for the use of agricultural watersince 1960. Exact investigation and control of groundwater are greatly required in utilizing undergroundspace as subway, nuclear power plant, oil and hazardous waste storehouse. Groundwater contaminationowing to industrial irrigation, trash decomposition can have a serious effect on human health and rustof underground building. In this study, global prospecting system are applied to detect groundwater, using electrical, seismic and georadar prospecting method.

The exact information on geological structures and characteristics of the subsurface must be acquired to secure quality and safety of constructions. GPR technique, one of the most updated geophysical methods, is known for its applicability to shallow-depth underground surveys. The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of GPR method in constructions for detailed subsurface investigations, especially detecting the boundary between basement rock and its overburden. To find appropriate depths of the geological boundaries, it is necessary to obtain velocity of electromagnetic wave propagating into the ground. Wave velocity 0.096 m/ns estimated from velocity analysis using CMP gathers is used for depth conversion from time section. The depths of geological boundaries from GPR profiles are very well correlated with boring data. In addition, GPR survey has found some undulations of the geological boundaries due to weathering, which cannot be provided by conventional coring approaches.

An investigation of a void and a loose layer of the ground is essential in order to prevent the losses of life and properties caused by subsidence and sinkage of the ground. Recently, studies on the ground penetrating radar survey have been actively conducted in order to estimate the void and the loose layer of the ground. However, an error can be committed by contrarily predicting a dense ground and a loose layer because the ground penetrating radar estimates an interface depth between geo-materials that have different electrical impedances. In this study, a loose ground depth is estimated using the characteristics of the reflected electromagnetic wave obtained from the ground penetrating radar survey. To gather the signals according to the loose ground depths, the ground penetrating radar survey is conducted on a field which underwent a huge ground settlement. In addition, the dynamic cone penetration test is performed to verify the result of the loose ground depth estimation from the ground penetrating radar survey. From the analysis of the reflection characteristics of the electromagnetic wave, a phase of an electromagnetic wave reflected from a denser soil layer is found to be identical with that of the first measured signal. On the other hand, a phase of an electromagnetic wave reflected from the loose soil layer is found to be opposed to that of the first detected signal. The comparison between the dynamic cone penetration index and electromagnetic signals by the ground penetrating radar shows that the estimated depth of the loose or dense layer is perfectly matched with a high reliability. The ground penetrating radar survey and the signal analysis performed in this study can be used not only for the survey of interface depth between the discontinuity layers but also for the estimation of the loose layer.

Recently many sinkholes have appeared in urban areas of Korea, threatening public safety. To predict the occurrence of sinkholes, it is necessary to investigate the existence of cavity under urban roads. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has been recognized as an effective means for detecting underground cavity in urban areas. In order to improve the understanding of the governing physical processes associated with GPR wave propagation, and interpret underground cavity effectively, a theoretical approach using numerical modeling is required. We have developed an algorithm employing a three-dimensional (3D) staggered-grid finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. This approach allows us to model the full electromagnetic wavefield associated with GPR surveys. We examined the GPR response for a simple cavity model, and the modeling results showed that our 3D FDTD modeling algorithm is useful to assess the underground cavity under urban roads.
