본 연구에서는 만경강 점착성 퇴적물의 표본채취 및 실내실험을 통하여 만경강 점착성 퇴적물의 침강특성이 정량적으로 산정되었으며, 과거 타 지역 퇴적물의 침강특성 산정 결과들과 비교 검토 되었다. 또한 퇴적물의 기본 물리 화학적 특성과 침강특성간의 상관관계 해석을 통하여, 만경강 점착성 퇴적물의 침강특성결과의 타당성이 간접적으로 검토되었다. 침강실험 결과, 부유사 농도가 증가함에 따라 침강속도가 증가하는 응집침강 영역과, 역으로 침강속도가 감소하는 간섭침강 영역이 명확히 나타났으며, 만경강 퇴적물의 부유사농도값이 0.1$W_s$<1 mm/sec의 침강속도 값을 갖는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 산정된 침강속도는 과거 타 지역과 비교하여 정량적으로 상당한 차이를 보였다.

Quantifying the settling velocities of fine-cohesive sediments is very essential in the study of ocean pollutions as well as sedimentations. Settling properties of fine-cohesive sediments are influenced largely by aggregation which occurs as a consequence of interparticle collision and cohesion of particles. Since the degree of cohesion of fine-cohesive sediments depends on physico-chemical properties such as grain size distribution, percentage of organic materials, and mineralogical compositions, and these physico-chemical properties varies regionally, the settling velocities of fine-cohesive sediments for a specific site should be determined through field or laboratory experiment. Recently, settling velocities of fine-cohesive sediments in Saemankeum coasts and Kunsan Estuary have been measured through laboratory experiments. Using these data, the previously proposed well-known settling velocity equations for fine-cohesive sediments are examined and a new equation is developed for better representation of the measured data in this study. The newly developed settling velocity equation is simpler in the form and easier in determining the related coefficients than the previous well-known equations.

The settling behavior of marine fluid mud in the west seaside of Korea has been studied with theoretical analysis and experimental technique. This paper describes laboratorial experiments on the sedimentation and the deposition of soil particles in seawater, with measurement of velocity of interface, the water contents, the settlement. And the reseults are compared with an earlier theoretical research, the hindered settling theory of Kynch, McRoberts and Nixon. According to the results the process of Banweol mud sedimentation showed the typical mode of the hindered settling under the condition of initial water content, wo=1000%. Also, the falling rates of fluid mud interface from initial settling height vs. the rising rates of soil deposit from the bottom of the test tub were measured by the function of time, the correlati tranship of them demonstrated as a straight line and obtained an experimental formula.

The purpose of this study is to quantitatively estimate the settling property for fine-cohesive sediments in Keum Estuary and to evaluate the spatial variation by analyzing and comparing the local and seasonal variation of the settling properties in Keum Estuary with that of the settling properties in the other sites. After the spatial variation of physico-chemical properties such grain size distribution, the percentage of organic contents, mineralogical composition etc is investigated through experiments and analyses, interrelation between the physico-chemical properties and settling velocities and effect that the physico-chemical properties have on the quantitative variation of settling velocities were also analyzed in this study. Experimental results of settling tests shows that settling velocities of Keum Estuary mud vary in the range of two orders of magnitude (from 0.01 to 1mm/sec) over the corresponding concentration range of 0.1 to 80 g/L, and a feature of settling velocity profile is quite different in quantity as compared to those of previous studies with mud of other regions: Saemankuem, Tampa Bay, Sevem Estuary and lake Okeechobee. However, their local and seasonal variabilities within Keum Estuary appear to be insignificant.

Accurate settlement estimation of dredged soft soil deposits is significantly important to prevent potential disasters during land reclamation. An application of the non-linear finite strain consolidation theory is inevitable in dealing with a very soft ground formation such as dredged fill. In this paper, a series of the sedimentation-consolidation test, self-weight consolidation test and CRS test were conducted to clarify sedimentation and consolidation characteristics of dredged fill in the Songdo area, Incheon. In addition, the settlement of dredged fill was numerically simulated using the PSDDF program. The dredged soil obtained from the Songdo area was classified as low-compressible silt (ML) based on USCS (Unified Soil Classification System), and the final bulking factors were estimated to be 1.56 and 1.17 by Yano's method and the numerical simulation, respectively. This difference is attributable to relatively high reclaimed height and large permeability of dredged soil in this region.

The dredged soils of western sea of Korea have been used as the fill materials because it possess the characteristics that constitute silt, silty sand and sand mainly. However, a study on dredged soils as the fill materials is insufficient. Hence, in this present study, the application the dredged soils of western sea of Korea as the fill materials was confirmed. Primary, the composition characteristics of the ground was analyzed to confirm the application on dredged soils as the fill materials by the piezo-cone penetration test. In laboratory test, it was performed the self-weight consolidation test for mechanical characteristics of the dredged soils. The direct shear test using self-weight consolidation test sample for shear strength characteristics was performed after self-weight consolidation test. Additionally, the mechanical characteristics of the dredged soils on elapsed time using self-weight consolidation test sample, which is drained naturally, was evaluated. The dredged soils of western sea of Korea show that unit weight and shear strength is increased as natural drain time elapses.

분진은 그 안에 Pb, Cr, Cd, Zn등 각종 중금속 및 유해물질을 함유하고 있으며(Jaenicke, R., 1988), 이러한 조성은 분진의 발생원과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 또한, 분진의 물리, 화학적 특징들은 대기로의 배출정도나 화학적 변형 외에도 기상학적 인자들에 의해 영향을 받는다(Karakas와 Tuncel, 1997). 이러한 분진들은 최종적으로 지상에 낙하할때의 분진으로서 비교적 크기가 큰 강하분진과, 입자가 미세하고 가벼워서 좀처럼 침강하기 어려워 장기간 대기중에 떠 다니는 부유분진으로 나눌수 있으며, 이 중 강하분진은 대기중의 오염물질 중 자기 중량에 의해 또는 우적에 포함되어 침강하는 매연 및 분진과 그 외 불순물로서, 그 측정치는 일정지역에 있어서의 오염변동을 나타내고 지역적 비교의 지표로서 이용되고 있다(김은경등, 1996)(중략)

Remelting of $A-Si/SiC_{p}$ composites followed by isothermal holding and solidification, leads ro the settling of Sic particles to the bottom of the mold. With the isothermal holding time for molten $A-Si/SiC_{p}$ composites. the particle free zone increases rapidly up to approximately first 30 minutes of the holding time. Experimental resulls of the particle settling confirm that the larger SIC particles sink faster tlun the sniiller particles. An increase in volume fraction of Sic particles decreases the setrling velocity of the particles.
