This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of shading treatments and harvesting methods on the growth of Eleutherococcus senticosus, which was known as the medicine of anticancer, anti-stress, hepatic detoxification activity, immunoactivity, and tonic. Light transmission ratio and air temperature were decreased as $40{\sim}64%$,$1.9{\sim}2^{\circ}C$, respectively, in 30% to 70% shading net treatment compared to non-shading. Fifty percentage shading net treatment was effective for the growth and yield of Eleutherococcus senticosus. During summer Eleutherococcus senticosus was growing under shading net treatment compared to non-shading. Tunnel type was more effective for growth than vertical type in shading method. 30cm length included 2 to 3 nodes cutting from soil surface was the most effective for branching stem length, plant height and yield as harvesting methods.

This paper aims for the ultimate goal to optimize the work place environment through assuring the optimal required ventilation rate based on the analysis of the airflow. The working environment is deteriorated due to a rise in temperature of a coal mine caused by increase of its depth and carriage tunnels. To improve the environment, the ventilation evaluation on J coal mine is carried out and the effect of a length of the tunnel on the temperature to enhance the ventilation efficiency in the subsurface is numerically analyzed. The analysis shows that J coal mine needs $17,831m^3/min$ for in-flow ventilation rate but the total input air flowrate is $16,474m^3/min$, $1,357m^3/min$ of in-flow ventilation rate shortage. The temperatures were predicted on the two developed models of J mine, and VnetPC that is a numerical program for the flowrate prediction. The result of the simulation notices the temperature in the case of developing all 4 areas of -425ML as a first model is predicted 29.30 at the main gangway 9X of C section and in the case of developing 3 areas of -425ML excepting A area as a second model, it is predicted 27.45 Celsius degrees.

This study focuses on the improvement of the working environment in domestic collieries where temperature is increasing due to heat of the earth that is caused by the long-term mining. In order to improve the working environment of the mine, a ventilation evaluation was carried out for Hwasoon Mining Industry. In order to increase the ventilation efficiency of the mine, numerical analysis of the effect on temperature was carried out by using climsim, a temperature prediction program. The analysis shows that A coal mine needs $6,152m^3/min$ for in-flow ventilation rate but the total input air flowrate is $4,710m^3/min$, $1,442m^3/min$ of in-flow ventilation rate shortage. The 93 m hypothetical ventilation shaft from -395 ML to -488 ML could result about $3^{\circ}C$ temperature drop in the coal mine of -488 ML far. As a result of predicting the $CO_2$ concentration at -523 ML development using artificial neural network, the emission of $CO_2$ increased as the amount of coal and coal bed thickness increased. The factors that have the greatest effect on the amount of $CO_2$ emissions were coal layer thickness and coal mining. And, as the air quantity increases, it has a great effect on the decrease of carbon dioxide concentration.

In order to protect the environment from waste disposal activities, the prediction of the flux and flow paths of the contaminants from underground facilities should be assessed as accurately as possible. Especially, the prediction of the pathways and travel times of the nuclides from high level radioactive wastes in a deep repository to biosphere is one of the primary tasks for assessing the ultimate safety and performance of the repository. Since the contaminants are mainly transported with groundwater along the discontinuities developed within rock mass, the characteristics of groundwater flow through discontinuities is important for the prediction of contaminant fates as well as safety assessment of a repository. In this study, the actual fracture network could be effectively generated based on in situ data by separating geometric parameter and hydraulic parameter. The calculated anisotropic hydraulic conductivity was applied to a 3D porous medium model to calculate the path flow and travel time of the large studied area with the consideration of the complex topology in the area. Using the model, the pathways and travel times for groundwater were analyzed. From this study, it was concluded that the suggested techniques and procedures for predicting the pathways and travel times of groundwater from underground facilities to biosphere is acceptable and those can be applied to the safety assessment of a repository for radioactive wastes.

In this study, in order to develop ultra rapid hardening mortar(URHM) for tunnel repairs using bottom ash of low recycle ratio and Admixture as Eco concept, fundamental properties of URHM on temperature condition of construction field were performed. Test result, URHM of three types for fluidity and setting time were as in the following : B > C > A. Those for low temperatures were later than the standard condition. Compressive, bending and bond strength were similar with three types as follow. In compressive strength, initial strength of the low were smaller than the standard but the low in the long-term were similar with the standard. On the contrary to this, bending strength were similar in initial strength but the low in the long-term were smaller than the standard. The low in bond strength was average 35% less than the standard. Length changes was as in the following : A > C > B. the low is two times much as the standard but the case using blast furnace slag particles noticeably reduced length changes. Water absorption coefficient and water vapor resistance were as in the following : C > A > B. In case of URHM added bottom ash, water absorption coefficient and water vapor resistance were increased because bottom ash is porous material.

The SASW (Spectral-Analysis-of-Surface-Waves) method, which evaluates the stiffness structure of the subsurface and structures nonintrusively and nondestructively, has been successfully used in the civil engineering applications. However, the SASW method assumes that the subsurface or structures consist of horizontal multi-layers, so that the method has some difficulty in continuously evaluating the integrity of a tunnel lining and a pavement system. This difficulty prevents the SASW method from being used to generate a tomographic image of stiffness for the subsurface or structures. Recently, the GPR technique which has the advantage of continuously evaluating integrity of the subsurface and structures has been popular. This advantage of GPR technique initiated the efforts to make the SASW method, which is superior to GPR and other nondestructive testing methods due to its capability of evaluating stiffness and modulus, be able to do continuous evaluation of stiffness structure, and the efforts finally lead to the development of \ulcornerTomographic SASW Technique.\ulcorner Tomographic SASW technique is a variation of the SASW method, and can generate a tomographic image of stiffness structure along the measurement line. The tomographic SASW technique was applied to the investigation of lateral variability of a sand box placed by the raining method for the purpose of verifying its effectiveness. Tomographic SASW measurements on the sand box revealed that the investigated sand box has different shear stiffness along the measurement line, which gave a clue of how to make a better raining device.

Properties of discontinuity for Seoul Granite in northeastern part of Seoul City were analyzed by dividing structural domains into Surak and Bulam Mtn. areas. Important parameters measured among several engineering properties of a rock during tunnel excavation and road construction are as follows: 1) Orientation of joint, 2) joint spacing, 3) joint density, and 4) uniaxial compressive strength. Orientation, spacing, and density of joints can be directly measured during field investigation using scanline survey, circle-inventory method, and window survey. Uniaxial compressive strength of the rock was calculated by a simple correlation equation although it is originally necessary to prepare core samples in measuring it. Major orientations of joints measured from both areas are 3 sets of joints with different orientations. In other words, they are 2 sets of orthogonal joint and 1 set of sheet joint that is dipping at low angle, and have very similar orientations in both areas. Joint densities in both areas range from 0.039 and 0.066/cm, and average joint length are between 1.30 and 4.52m. Average joint spacing also has values from 10.3cm up to 59.6cm, and shows significant difference along specific orientation of scanlines measured. Values of uniaxial compressive strength calculated on the basis of Schmidt hammer rebound values range from 217 to 335 MPa, which indicates very strong rock type by classification of wall strength.

국내에서 새로운 댐 저수지 건설을 통한 수자원의 안정적인 확보는 어려운 여건에 있다. 따라서 수자원의 효율적인 확보, 댐 하류하천의 수질 개선, 신규댐 건설 대체 효과를 기대하기 위해 기존 댐 저수지의 연계운영이 중요하게 인식되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다수의 댐 저수지 수체를 연계하여 모델을 통해 해석하고자 안동-임하호를 연결한 2차원 모델(CE-QUAL-W2)을 구축하고, 2002년과 2006년 수문사상을 재현하였으며, 수리해석을 실시하였다. 안동호의 좌안인 임동면 마리와 임하호의 우안인 망천리를 연결하고, EL. 140 m 위치에 길이 2 km, 직경 5.5 m로 콘크리트 터널을 연결하는 것으로 가정하였다. 관내 바닥 마찰계수와 미소 마찰손실 값은 0.05를 입력하였다. 저수지 실측수위와 모의수위를 시계열로 비교한 결과, 2002년과 2006년 안동호와 임하호에서 여름철 유입량 증가에 따른 수위 상승을 잘 반영하였고, 결정계수값($R^2$)이 모두 0.9953 이상으로 나타나 모델은 두 저수지 물수지 계산에 있어서 높은 신뢰도를 보였다. 2006년을 대상으로 안동호와 임하호의 댐 앞에서 수심별 수온의 실측값과 모의값을 비교한 결과, 안동호는 4월부터 성층이 진행되어 5월에 수온약층이 EL. 130 m에 형성되었다. 7월 홍수가 중층 밀도류를 형성하여 수온 성층구조를 교란하였고, 기존의 수온약층이 EL. 120 m 로 하강하였으며, 표층 EL. 145 m에 새로운 수온약층이 형성되는 2단 성층 구조를 보였다. 여름철 동안 이러한 현상은 지속되었고, 10월부터 대기기온 강하와 함께 수직혼합이 시작되었다. 수온예측 오차는 AME $0.336{\sim}1.806^{\circ}C$, RMSE $0.415{\sim}2.271^{\circ}C$의 범위로 실측값을 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 임하호도 안동호와 유사한 경향을 보였고, 모델은 두 저수지에서 전 기간에 걸쳐 모두 안정적으로 저수지 수온 성층현상을 모의하였다. 2002년 수문사상에서 안동-임하 연계 운영시 안동호의 평균 수위는 1.38 m 상승하였고, 임하호는 3.75 m 낮아지는 것으로 모의되었다. 수위변동에 따른 유동 유량은 임하호에서 안동호로 3억 6천 4백만 톤, 안동호에서 임하호로 2억 9천 1백만 톤으로 임하호에서 안동호로 유동한 유량이 높게 나타났다. 유역면적에 비해 저수용량이 작은 임하호의 경우 두 저수지간 유량의 이동에 따라서 저수용량의 증가로 인한 홍수 저감 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 반면, 안동-임하 연계 운영시 임하호의 차가운 물이 안동호로 유입되는 경우, 안동호의 수온 성층구조에 영향을 주었다. 안동호의 경우는 단독운영시보다 높은 위치에 수온약층(EL. 140 m)이 형성되었으며, 임하호는 반대로 저수위가 낮아지면서 단독운영시보다 수온약층의 위치가 약간 낮아졌다. 이러한 결과는 두 저수지 연결시 안동호의 탁수와 수질 환경에 변화가 있을 수 있음을 시사한다.

This study is to consider applicability of spiral bolt strain gauge as an instrument measuring behavior of soft ground foundation and rock slope. When the instrument was installed on the ground, it can be useful to identify the state of ground behavior because it has the characteristics of flexibility, as well as to apply the ground reinforcement because it has higher pull-out resistance to the ground. From the measurement of behavior to soft ground foundation, the strain shows a stable state in the beginning, then was observed significant change in the upper and the middle of spiral bolt strain gauge after 400 days. This is analyzed that ground loosening, which is due to occurred frequent earthquake of magnitude 1~2 with increased rainfall, lead to the instability of the ground. From the measurement of behavior to rock slope, the strain shows a stable state with very little change in a period of 0~50 days and the biggest strain at 4.2 m (P6) in a period of 50~100 days, then other places except P6 was maintained at a stable state in a period of 100~160 days. The reason is analyzed because that blasting for excavated limestone surrounding was affected to the largest at P6. However, based on the size of strain change by behavior of the soft ground foundation and rock slope, it is considered that the present condition are not effected on stability of retaining structure and rock slope. In conclusion, the proposed spiral bolt strain gauge can be useful to measure behavior of soft ground foundation and rock slope, and also to be measured behavior as well as reinforcement of the target ground.

Many people have been recognized that the Korean Peninsula is no longer safe area from the earthquake by the recent earthquakes occurred in the country. The earthquakes that occurred at Pohang and Gyeongju appeared differently from them considered in the seismic design and researches on the seismic design method have been also conducted by many researchers. Studies on seismic loads are mainly focused on existing superstructures, and research involving them has been actively carried out in reality. However, paper regarding structural stability of reinforcement from seismic load such as soil-nails, rock-bolts, ground anchors which were constructed to ensure stability of serviced structure have been published rarely. In this study, ground anchor been effected by static load and seismic load which is settled in the weathered rock is analyzed. Results for static load are obtained from field test and seismic load is from numerical analysis. In this study, the behavioral characteristics of the ground anchor were analyzed by numerical analysis in case of seismic loading based on the result of the in-situ tensile test of the ground anchor settled weathered rock. As a result, settlement of concrete block due to application of tension force for ground anchor occurred as well as following loss of axial force for ground anchor. Also, as bond length and period of seismic load are longer, increasement of displacement is greater.
