광도파로 기반 센서의 성능을 개선시키기 위해서는 코어와 클래딩 층의 굴절률 차를 크게 하여 표면감도를 향상시켜야 한다. 이를 위해 센서용 광도파로 코어 층을 위한 고굴절률 SiNx 박막을 플라즈마 화학기상증착(PECVD, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition)법을 이용하여 성장한 후 그 표면특성을 분석하였다. 이 때 플라즈마 화학기상증착 공정 조건 중 NH3 가스를 제외하여 Si 성분이 많은 고굴절률 SiNx 박막의 성장을 유도하고 He/SiH4 가스유량비를 0에서 100까지 변화시켜 SiNx 박막의 표면거칠기를 제어하였다. Si기판 위에 SiNx 박막을 10분 성장 후 BOE(buffered oxide etchant)로 선택식각하여 그 박막두께를 alpha step으로 측정하는 방법으로 He/SiH4 가스유량비 조건별 박막성장률을 계산하였다. 그 결과 He/SiH4 가스유량비 증가함에 따라 박막성장률이 33 nm/min에서 19 nm/min으로 선형적인 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 박막두께가 190 nm가 되도록 He/SiH4 가스유량비 조건별 SiNx 박막을 성장한 후 그 표면특성을 AFM (atomic force microscope)으로 관찰하였다. 이를 통해 He/SiH4 가스유량비가 50일 때 SiNx 박막의 표면거칠기가 최소가 됨을 알 수 있었다.

A difficulty encountered in engineering seismic mapping is that reflection events from shallow discontinuities are commonly overlapped with coherent noise such as air wave, direct waves, head waves, and high-amplitude surface waves. Here, the radial trace transform, a simple geometric re-mapping of a trace gather (x-t domain) to another trace gather (v-t domain), is applied to investigate the rejection effect of coherent linear noises. Two different types of data sets were selected as a representative database: good-quality data for intermediate sounding (hundreds of meters) in a sedimentary basin and very noisy data for shallow (${\leq}50m$) mapping of the weathered zone and bedrock surface. Results obtained with cascaded application of the radial transform and low-cut filtering proved to be as good as, or better than, those produced using f-k filtering, and were especially effective for air wave and direct wave. This simple transform enables better understanding of the characteristics of various types of noise in the RT domain, and can be generally applied to overcoming diffractions and back-scatterings caused by joints, fractures, and faults commonly that are encountered in geotechnical problems.

Rapid variations in the geometry (i.e., thickness) of the refractor and low velocities affect greatly the imaging of the reflectors of land seismic data. Conventional solutions to obtain the weathering models utilizes first break picking method, which requires time consuming steps and causes the human error in picking the first arrivals. A new interferometric approach (interferometric refraction statics, IRS) which utilizes the first arrival signal (S/N enhanced by refraction convolution stack) instead of first break picking, is tested in this study to the synthetic data from the velocity structure provided by surface geophysics (refraction, MASW) and borehole geophysics (tomography, SPS logging) for the Cheongju granitic bodies. The results of IRS approach are found to be better than the ones from conventional first break picking in terms of continuities and horizontal resolution of the reflectors. The unresolved long-wavelength statics in brute stack are much removed by IRS weathering correction and the overlying refractors (the base of shallow weathering zone) are incidentally delineated in the refraction convolution stack.

In order to get geologic information necessary for underground installation of water pipe, seismic refraction profiling was applied to the southwest side of the Seomjin River which flows between Namwon-gun, Cholabuk-do and Gokseong-gun, Cholanam-do. Before obtaining the in-line refraction data, walkaway data were recorded with 1 m geophone interval and -36∼+36 m offset range. From the walkaway data, it is interpreted that a dry soil layer with the average velocity of 585 m/s covers wet sediments with the average velocity of 1,326 m/s. The second layer overlies basements nearly horizontally with the average velocity of 4,218 m/s. Refraction profiling of 220 m long with the geophone interval of 2 m is interpreted with the Generalized Reciprocal Method (GRM). Three layers are identified with average velocities of 688 m/s, 1,473 m/s, and 3,776 m/s, respectively. The depth to the bedrock impossible for ripping ranges between two extremes, 1.51∼2.43 m and 2.25∼3.54 m, depending upon thickness of the hidden layer. A typical shortcoming of refraction method, the hidden layer problem, prevents accurate estimation in depth of the second layer.

In order to map the acoustic basement and to locate fracture zones in the Galgok fault, seismic refraction data were acquired near the Chonbuk ranch in Gyeongju. Along three profiles of 72m(Line 1), 72m(Line 2), and 36m(Line 3) long, seismic signals were generated by a 5kg hammer. The refraction data were collected by employing twelve 8 Hz geophones at an interval of 3m and recording time of 192ms at a sampling rate of 0.2ms. The data are interpreted using GRM method. The top layer (Layer 1) is characterized as the velocity of approximately250 m/s and thickness of approximately 2.1m. This layer is regarded as a soil layer. Underneath Layer 1 lies unconsolidated layer (Layer 2) whose refraction velocity is determined to be $1,030{\sim}1,400m/s$. Layer 2 is approximately 4.6m thick and is regarded as a Quaternary gravel layer. The third layer (Layer 3) has the mean refraction velocity of $2,100{\sim}2,200m/s$ and is interpreted to be the acoustic basement. In some parts of Lines 1 and 3, the difference in depth to the top of Layer 2 is greater than 20 cm indicating the possibility of existence of Quaternary faults. Along Line 3 and the eastern part of Line 1, refracted energy from the acoustic basement was not recorded. This may highly indicate that a relatively large scale fault exists under the western part of Line 1.

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.

A simple numerical refraction model is presented. The model takes into account refraction, shoaling and bottom dissipation. Eikonal equation and equation of energy conservation are discretized by an explicit finite-difference method, which provides wave angle and height at each grid point, respectively. Applications of the model were made to simple geometries as well as complex geometries, and some advantages on computing time and stability have been observed.

The equations for the wave orthogonals and wave heights are presented along the depth using time as the independent variable, The effect of wave refracion is included. In this paper, a numerical procedure is described for the calculation and two analytical solutions are presneted in case of straight and parallel bottom contours and horizontal bottom in order to check the computed results. The computer outputs are in the form of automatically plotted wave orthogonals and wave heights along the wave path. In practical calculation of wave heights, Samchuckk Pohang, and Hanlim are selected as plane sloping bottoms.

수중폭발성음원인 SUS(signal underwater sound)는 수중에서의 폭발과 동시에 충격파와 기포파들이 연속적으로 발생한다. 이러한 신호는 광범위한 주파수대역을 가지고 전파거리가 길어지면서 굴절과 반사등의 다중경로 전파효과에 의한 신호의 변형까지 생긴다. (1,2,3). 본 연구에서는 deconvolution 방법을 이용하여 수신신호중에서 기포파효과를 최소화시켜 충격파의 수신기 도달시간을 파악하고, 각 충격파들의 전파경로를 추정하여 이 중 직접경로와 해저면 반사경로의 신호를 이용하여 해저면 반사계수를 계산하였다.
