The enlargement of existing tunnels is required to cope with problems related to traffic congestion. Sometimes, the tunnel traffic must be maintained through existing tunnels during their reconstruction due to non-availability of detours. And excavation by drill and blasting is desired for widening a hard rock tunnel. In this case, the road must be closed for some period for blasting through analyzing of traffic volume. In this paper, a case study on some traffic countermeasures for tunnel enlargement by blasting was performed. And the traffic flow characteristics of some tunnels in domestic main city were analyzed.

In this paper, conventional biological treatment methods to compensate for the shortcomings bio-Ceramic -technology to develop fusion as a preliminary step of the analysis and review process to restore contaminated soil and BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene) contaminated by Soil physical and mechanical properties were analyzed. As a result, pollution levels and other contaminants by supporting the sample tests carried out by mechanical properties testing, and the difference between unpolluted soil were compared.

Offshore wind power is one of the largest-scale solutions for a nuclear- and pollution-free electricity supply in the future. Recently, the research for offshore wind power has started in Korea. However, there has been little effort specifically made for the exploration and evaluation of mechanical characteristics for offshore underwater soil deposits. In offshore wind power system, this is important as consistent and safe maintenance of structural functionality of the system is key for the wind power system to be successfully implemented. In this study, case examples from foreign offshore wind power sites are selected and analyzed. And design methods and factors of offshore wind power system foundation are investigated.

In this study, a method for estimating the effective stress of clays using in-situ penetration test(PCPT) result is proposed. The proposed method is based on a correlation between the PCPT results and strength increment ratio. According to proposed method, no additional testing procedure for collecting undisturbed soil sample is required, which can reduce overall testing cost. To verify this method, for analysis, various analytical solutions were adopted and used. Measured and predicted effective stress are compared on the test results. The verification sites consist of a variety of soil condition. From comparison, it is seen that predicted value of effective stress using the propose method match well those from measured results.

This study evaluates the electro-osmotic hydraulic conductivity for the clay specimen by applying the series of the voltage gradient simultaneously with different stress conditions. The test results shows that the shrinkage of voids corresponds to the linear decrease in the electro-osmotic seepage velocity, and the changes of electro-chemical characteristics in the specimen induces the gradual decrease of the electro-osmotic seepage velocity with the constant voltage gradient.

In order to understand the mechanism of cementation of soft soils treated with bacteria, three types of specimens(untreated, normal bacteria concentration treated, and high bacteria concentration treated) were made. Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), EDX and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analyses were performed on the soft silt and loose sand specimens. Compared with the untreated specimen, a clearer cementation between particles was observed in the high bacteria concentration treated specimen. Based on the scanning electron microscope(SEM) EDX analyses, more calcium carbonate was observed in the specimen treated with high bacteria concentration than other specimens. On the basis of the preliminary results, it appears that microbial cementation can occur in the soft soil. Further study on the cementation of soils using bacteria is necessary to validate this result.

In this study, a revegetation reinforced earth retaining wall to strengthen the strength than construction and make up for the weakness; eco-friendly part, of the existing facilities is new construction method. The special attention is that Eco-Metal reinforced retaining wall is not use concret. Before test construction on the scene, the stability of Eco-Metal reinforced retaining wall was checked by an experiment with a model and numerical analysis. The result of an experiment with a model was that the loaded tensile stress 40.2KN/m was more than long-term design tensile strength 29.4KN/m at Geogrid and a safety factor of numerical analysis was 1.14.

This study investigated the agents for self-healing system that could be developed to prevent UST(underground storage tank) from leaking. The system involves short range wireless communication to locate a leakage. Four commercially available silicons are arbitrarily chosen to evaluate suitability as a self-healing agent through a series of laboratory experiments. finally the experiments are simulated using computational Fluid Dynamic Program.

The radar wind profiler data contaminates with various non-atmospheric components that produce errors in moments and wind velocity estimations. This study implemented an adaptive Gaussian model to detect and remove the clutter from the radar return. This model includes DC filtering, ground clutter recognition, Gaussian fitting, and cost function to mitigate the clutter component. The adaptive model tested for the various types of clutter components and found that it is effective in clutter removal process. It is also applied for the both time series and spectrum datasets. The moments estimated using this method are compared with those derived using conventional DC-filtering clutter removal method. The comparisons show that the proposed method effectively removes the clutter and produce reliable moments.

This paper describes the assessment of seismic performance of the concrete gravity dam seismically reinforced by post-tensioned anchors. In order to evaluate the seismic performance, the response spectrum analyses have been carried out for 7 different configurations of the post-tensioned anchors, and then their performance improvement in the maximum tensile and compressive stresses is compared to each other. The comparative results demonstrate that the layout of the post-tensioned anchors strongly influences the seismic performance of the concrete gravity dam. In this study, the slightly-inclined vertical anchorage system shows the largest improvement on the overall performance of the seismically-excited concrete gravity dam.
