An axisymmetric shell element which includes the effects of the meridional and circumferential cable prestresses is developed. The fluid-structure interaction is expressed as added mass effect which is in proportion to the acceleration of the structure in interface surface. The added mass is obtained by using finite element method under the assumption that the fluid is invicid, incompressible and irrotational. It is coded for personal computer by the maximum use of axisymmetic properties and the dynamic analysis are performed under seismic exitations. A ring element makes the characteristics of the axisymmetric shell to be fully utilized. The elgenvalue solutons under the initial prestresses and the internal fluid are well agreed with the exact solutions and references by using under 20 elements. The eigenvalues are decreased along the increasing the height of internal fluid and these effects are dominant under the lower wave numbers. The results of the seismic analysis show that the radial deflection under the meridional prestress is a little larger than that under the circumferential prestress.

In this paper, the hydraulic model tests are conducted for the hydraulic characteristics at channel junctions. The experiments are examined through the variation of approaching angle, discharge in the upstream main channel and the discharge ratio between the main channel and the tributary. The experiments are conducted in the channel model having the length of 450cm, the widths of 40cm and 32cm. Four water tanks and pumps are installed in the experimental channel. The length of stagnation zone is increased by Increasing of approaching angle and the discharge in the upstream channel. The length of stagnation increase with the discharge ratio between the main channel and the tributary. However, the variation of the stagnation zone near the channel junctions is little at the same approaching angles and the discharge ratioes between the main channel and tributary. However, the variation of the stagnation zone near the channel junctions is little at the same approaching angles and the discharge ratioes between the main channel and tributary. Accelerating zone of the velocity is occurred in the middle of the channel in the small approaching angle. However, the influence zone of the accelerating velocity is increased by increasing the approaching angle.

When a extreme loading such as blast is applied to prestressed concrete (PSC) structures and infrastructures for an instantaneous time, serious property damages and human casualties occur. However, a existing design procedure for PSC structures such as prestressed containment vessel (PCCV) and gas storage tank do not consider a protective design for extreme internal blast scenario. Particularly, an internal blast is much more dangerous than that of external blast. Therefore, verification of the internal blast loading is required. In this paper, the internal blast resistance capacity of PSC member is evaluated by performing internal blast tests on RC and bi-directional PSC scaled down specimens. The applied internal blast loads were 22.68, 27.22, and 31.75 kg (50, 60, and 70 lbs) ANFO explosive charge at 1,000 mm standoff distance. The data acquisitions include blast pressure, deflection, strain, crack patterns, and prestressing force. The test results showed that it is possible to predict the damage area to the structure when internal blast loading occurs in PCCV structures.

Oil leaked from underwound storage tanks and leachate from sanitary landfills have been known as contaminant sources of the high-quality groundwater resources. The mobility of contaminants in the aquifer largely depends on the groundwater flow and the determination of associated hydraulic parameters is essential for a proper remediation of contaminated grnundwater. This study aimed at determining an optimum set of hydraulic parameters for an unconfined sandy aquifer of a laboratory scale through comparison of various methods. Results showed that the specific yield obtained from gravity drainage experiment was an average of 0.20 with minor variations in aquifer depths. and the permeabilities obtained from Dupuit approximation and slug test gave similar values of 5.33 cm/min and 5.85 cm/min but the constant head method gave 0.17 cm/min, which is much ion than the other methods. This experimental evidence reveals that the permeability of the unconfined sandy aquifer could be accurately determined by Dupuit assumption or slug tut rather than by constant head method conducted for a disturbed separate soil column.

기후변화 적응 유역 물순환 개선 기술은 기후변화가 진행 중에 있거나 예상되는 지역에 대하여 강우-유출수를 지연, 저류, 침투시켜 지속가능한 물순환체계를 유지 회복하도록 하는 기술이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 기후변화에 따른 국내 유역의 특성 및 기후를 반영하기 수월한 물순환 개선 및 평가시스템을 국내 기술로 개발하였다. 개발된 유역 물순환 개선 및 평가시스템은 기존 국가연구개발사업을 통해 개발되고 사업화에 성공한 바 있는 유역 물순환 평가 모형인 CAT(Catchment hydrologic cycle Assessment Tool)을 수정 및 개선하여 기후변화에 따른 영향을 평가하고 적응 대책을 수립하기 위한 실무적인 소프트웨어이다. 침투트렌치, 식생침투트렌치, 습지, 저류지, 빗물탱크 등의 물순환개선시설에 대한 효과를 평가할 수 있도록 개별시설의 제원에 따른 물순환개선 효과를 정량적으로 평가할 수 있다. 본 연구의 대상유역으로는 팔당댐 상류의 경안천 유역을 선정하였다. 경안천 유역의 기후변화에 따른 물순환 개선 기술 적용을 위해서 기후변화 시나리오 자료는 기상청 수원 측후소의 1976~2099년 FGOALS-s2, HadGEM-ES, INM-CM4 RCP8.5 시나리오를 적용하였으며 분석기간은 2020s(2010~2039), 2050s(2040~2069), 2080s(2070~2099)로 구분하였다. Baseline은 수원 측후소 과거 30년 1971~2000년 자료를 이용하였고 각 시나리오별 수문성분 및 구조적 물순환 개선기술 적용에 따른 수문성분을 비교 분석하였다. 물순환 개선기술 시나리오 중 침투시설 시나리오는 도시 면적의 20%, 설계침투량은 일본 우수저류침투기술협회 기준인 단위면적($1m^2$)당 10mm 적용하였고, 빗물저장시설 시나리오의 저장시설의 용량은 수도법시행규칙(2011)의 빗물 이용시설기준(도시면적 ${\times}0.05$)을 적용하였다. 시나리오별 강우량은 HadGEM-ES가 증가폭이 크게 나타났고 INM-CM4는 2080s에서 감소 경향을 보였다. 증발산량은 거의 모든 시나리오에서 대부분 감소하였고, 개선기술 적용에 따라 크게 증가하거나 감소폭이 줄어들었다. 직접유출량 및 중간유출량은 기후변화 시나리오별 강우증가분에 따른 미세한 증가 양상을 보였고, 개선기술 적용에 따라 약간 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 지하수유출량의 경우 침투시설 적용으로 함양량이 크게 증가함에 따라 증가폭이 매우 크게 나타났다.

This paper shows the numerical prediction of the change in oil outflow rate according to the orifice shape of a damaged ship by using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis method. It also provides discharge coefficients for various orifice shapes to be used in theoretical prediction approaches. The oil outflow from the model ship was analyzed using a multiphase flow method under the condition that the Froude and Reynolds number similitudes were satisfied. The present numerical results were verified by comparing them with the available experimental data. Along with the aspect ratio of the orifice and the wall thickness of the cargo tank, the effects of the orifice shapes defined by mathematical figures on the oil outflow were investigated. To consider more realistic situations, the investigation of the ef ect of the crushed iron plate around the damaged part was also included. The numerical results confirmed the change in oil outflow time for various shapes of the damaged part of the oil tank, and discharge coefficients that quantify the viscous effects of those orifice shapes were extracted. To verify the predicted discharge coefficients, they were applied to an oil spill estimation equation. As a result, a good agreement between the CFD and theoretical results was obtained.

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys were conducted in a sand tank model in a laboratory and at an alluvial field site to detect the groundwater table and to investigate the influence of saturation on GPR response in the unsaturated zone. In the sand tank model, the groundwater table and saturation in the sand layer were altered by injecting water, which was then drained by a valve inserted into the bottom of the tank. GPR vertical reflection profile (VRP) data were obtained in the sand tank model for rising and lowering of the groundwater table to estimate the groundwater table and saturation. Results of the lab-scale model provide information on the sensitivity of GPR signals to changes in the water content and in the groundwater table. GPR wave velocities in the vadose zone are controlled mainly by variations in water content (increased travel time is interpreted as an increase in saturation). At the field site, VRP data were collected to a depth of 220 m to estimate the groundwater table at an alluvial site near the Nakdong river at Iryong-ri, Haman-gun, South Korea. Results of the field survey indicate that under saturated conditions, the first reflector of the GPR is indicative of the capillary fringe and not the actual groundwater table. To measure the groundwater table more accurately, we performed a GPR survey using the common mid-point (CMP) method in the vicinity of well-3, and sunk a well to check the groundwater table. The resultant CMP data revealed reflective events from the capillary fringe and groundwater table showing hyperbolic patterns. The normal moveout correction was applied to evaluate the velocity of the GPR, which improved the accuracy of saturation and groundwater table information at depth. The GPR results show that the saturation information, including the groundwater table, is useful in assessing the hydrogeologic properties of the vadose zone in the field.
