Seepage rate through the core zone of rockfill dam, estimated from graphical technique and the equation by Sakamoto (1998), is different from the real condition because of neglecting unsaturated flow. With existing method to estimate total seepage rate, it is difficult to understand the tendency of total seepage rate changes by reservoir water level change. Steady state seepage rate and the factors affecting the time needed to attain to changes of reservoir water level and saturated hydraulic conductivity and unsaturated hydraulic properties of core material are analysed thorough the 2-D steady and unsteady state seepage analyses of Soyanggang dam. Numerical results revealed that the seepage rate can be expressed by the linear equation form and the value of unsaturated soil parameter n is the most important factor affecting the seepage rate and the time needed to attain steady state. The estimation method presented in this study can be used by the designer and the personnel of dam safety for convenient estimation of seepage rate and quantitative analysis of measured seepage rate without 2-D and 3-D numerical analyses.

Generally, slope behavior is analyzed by 2-dimensional creep model. Creep behavior shows the deformation variation as time goes by without stress increment. Convention 2-dimensional creep analysis does not have the term of stress variation, it means creep analysis could not figure out the relationship of shear strength variation according to the stress variation and displacement. The slope weight and shear strength is directly related and interlocked to the safety variation and displacement of slope, therefore, this phenomenon could be treated and analyzed as combining the hysteresis and creep, the iteration of this process will result in the slope safety. Furthermore, the combined analysis will be the slope analysis considering shear stress, displacement and shear strength with time variation. In real case, because the variation of shear stress and strength happen at the same time, they should be changed into safety factor which is function of them. This paper shows the 3-dimensional variation of unit weight of soil with hybrid analysis considering creep and hysteresis on the seepage and drainage of rainfall, futhermore variations of shear stress and strength which make the safety factor change.

난지도 매립지는 매립충의 불균질성과 고온의 침출수 및 가스의 흐름이 동시에 복합적으로 일어나는 현상 때문에 수리지질학적으로 매우 복잡한 지역이다. 난지도의 수문층서단위 조사와 디스크-장력 침투계(Disc tension Infiltrometer)로 불포화대 수리 특성을 추정하였으며 가스 거동 현상을 이해하기 위해 지온을 측정하였다. 매립지 주변의 지하수위 변화를 조사하기 위해 양수정과 다중-수위관측정(Multi-Level Monitoring Well)에서 수위변화를 관측하였다. 불포화대 수리특성과 기상자료를 바탕으로 매립지로의 순침투량을 추정하였다. 이것을 근거로 총 침출수 발생량을 추정하였으며, 기저 지하수면 상부에 분포하는 포화 침출수대, 즉 부유침출수의 생성 메카니즘에 대한 연구도 수행하였다.

A geotechnical research including observation of the movement of wall-structure, monitoring of groundwater, non-destructive geophysical investigation was conducted to workout a countermeasure to conserve the Muryong Royal Tomb which is the most extinguishable cultural property of the Baekje dynasty. Movement of the structure of Muryong Royal Tomb generally arises to the front chamber and its amplitude in a rainy season is twice of that in the dry season. It represents serious problem concerned about structural safety of the royal tomb in the rainy season. Movement of wall-structure is caused due to the rain infiltration through cracks in the quicklime layer within the soil mound on the top of the royal tomb and the change of the temperature inside of the tomb. Cracks found around the Muryong Royal Tomb are mostly spread in NW and SE of the tomb structure and it harmonizes with the direction of movement of wall-structure of the Muryong Royal Tomb. Counter-plans for safety and prevention of water-leakage that obstruct the movement of wall structures towards the direction of south are very important for the conservation of Muryong Royal Tomb. After getting rid of the cause of structural change by the restoration of the front chamber of the Muryong Royal Tomb, it needs to reinforce the quicklime layer for prevention of waterleak.

This study is an investigation on macroscopic spray behavior of nonimpinging-type injector equipped on the hydrazine thruster under development. An electron microscope is employed for the acceptance examination of injector orifice. Initial performance characteristics and spray behavior of injector are observed through the instantaneous spray images which are captured by high speed camera and Schlieren method with varying injection pressures. The injector performance is scrutinized by the velocity along with penetration length of spray and categorized by dimensionless parameters. It is confirmed that there exist varying characteristics related to the spray breakup caused by fabrication errors of injector-orifices. Unexpected spray behavior, which needs to be reexamined, is grasped at specific pressure level, as well.

The fabrication process of $Al_2O_{3p}/Al$ composite by in-situ process was investigated. The effects of processing variables such as addition type and content of Mg, processing temperature and time on the infiltration behavior of molten Al, microstructure and hardness were investigated. When the pure Al was infiltrated into mixtures of Mg and $Al_2O_3l$ powder, processing temperature required to spontaneous infiltration was decreased, and the content of Mg was the most powerful variable for infiltration of molten Al. But when the Al-Mg alloy was infiltrated into $Al_2O_3l$ particles, infiltration ratio indicated nearly same value regardless of Mg content in alloy and processing temperature, and critical processing temperature required to spontaneous infiltration was $800^{\circ}C$. The $Al_2O_{3p}/Al$ composites which were fabricated by mixtures of Mg and $Al_2O_3l$ powders resulted in high hardness value, but hardness values were scattered due to non uniform dispersion of $Al_2O_3l$ particles by excessive reaction of Mg.

This paper presents a procedure of calculating a safety factor of the unsaturated slope suffering from the rainfall infiltration. The process of infiltration into a slope due to rainfall and its effect on the behavior of the soil slope are examined by using a two dimensional finite element flow-deformation coupled analysis. A factor of safety is calculated at various elapsed times after the commencement of rainfall as in the following procedure. First, stresses are estimated at each Gaussian point from the coupled finite element analysis. Then, the global stress smoothing method is applied to get a continuous stress field. Based on this stress field, a factor of safety is calculated for a specified slip surface by a stress integration scheme. Then, a search strategy is used to find out a critical slip surface which is associated with the minimum factor of safety. Some numerical examples are analyzed in order to study the effect of hydraulic conductivity on the slope stability during rain-induced infiltration. According to the results, local failure zone can be formed near the slope surface due to inhomogeneous distribution of hydraulic conductivity If the failure zone is once formed, then the region extends until a large amount of slide activates. Therefore the local failure can be neglected no longer in the stability analysis.

강우가 발생하거나 관개를 함에 따라 농경지의 토양침식물, 잔류 비료나 농약 등의 비점오염원은 지표 및 지하 유출과 함께 거동함으로써 지표수 뿐 아니라 지하수 수질에도 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 특히, 최근 고부가가치 농산물 수요의 증가로 전국적으로 시설재배 농업이 확대되고 있으나 시설재배 내에서의 비점오염원 유출특성에 관한 연구는 미흡하다. 따라서 시설재배 농업과 관행농업의 비점오염원의 거동 및 지하침투 오염부하를 비교 평가하고 비점오염원을 저감하기 위한 적절한 방안 마련이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시설 및 관행재배 지역의 지하침투 오염부하량을 평가하기 위하여 주변 영향이 배제되어 시설재배와 관행재배의 비교 평가 가능한 포장 및 광역 단위 시험포장을 선정하고 모니터링 시스템을 구축하였다. 먼저 필지 단위와 광역 단위 단위에서의 모니터링 시스템을 설계하고, 수문 및 수질 분석 항목을 설정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 관행재배지에서의 물수지 모니터링을 위하여 기상 및 강우량, 지하수위, 토양수분, 관개 및 배수량을 측정하기 위한 장비를 설치하고, 토양수 및 지하수의 물질 수지 분석을 분석하기 위한 토양수, 지하수, 논담수 등의 수질 샘플망을 구축하였다. 또한 시설재배지에서의 물수지 모니터링을 위하여 기상, 지하수위, 토양수분 및 관개량을 측정하기 위한 장비를 설치하고, 토양수 및 지하수의 물질 수지 분석을 분석하기 위한 토양수, 지하수, 관개용수 등의 수질 샘플망을 구축하였다. 향후 본 시험 포장에 대한 지속적인 모니터링과 샘플링 실시하여 다양한 항목에 대한 조사 및 분석이 이루어진 다면 시설재배지 비점오염원 모니터링 및 정량화 기술개발을 통해 시설재배지에서의 비점오염에 대한 정량적 자료구축이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 기초적인 자료를 제공함으로써 국내 농업비점오염총량 추정 기술에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

An experimental study was peformed to provide the numerical models to predict the physical fate of marine debris with the key information concerning their trifling and sinkage on the sea. For hygroscopic materials their floating times in a pseudo ocean environment were measured, and for non-hygroscopic objects their drifting limes in a certain wave condition were measured. For sinking materials or objects became to be sinkable free falling experiment was performed to evaluate their falling speed. Summarized information was condensed into a numerical model to predict the most possible region of a significant marine debris accumulation, and the seas connected to the Han river and the Nak-Dong river were considered for the simulation.
