  • The result of examination of diagnostic method, which is composed of a combination of a thermal camera and a drone that visually shows the temperature of the object by detecting the infrared rays, for detecting the leakage of earth dam was driven in this research. The drone infrared thermography method was suggested to precise safety diagnosis through direct comparing the two method results of electrical resistivity survey and thermal image survey. The important advantage of the thermal leakage detection method was the simplicity of the application, the quickness of the results, and the effectiveness of the work in combination with the existing diagnosis method.

  • In Korea, where most of the sites are narrow in space and their earth resistivity is relatively high, the spaces between grounding conductors are likely to be designed narrow in order to lower ground resistance and dangerous voltage below to the permitted safety values. In addition, ground nets are in the shape of square or rectangle depending on the location and size of the facilities and ground contact area, and inner conductors are laid out in grids like the pattern of nets. Nevertheless, with the existing designs, the marginal voltage for safety gets higher as the area is extended further outside, in comparison with that of inner mesh grounding, thus causing much difficulty maintaining them equipotential, and there exist limits in the burial, grounding grid design considering the dangerous voltage of muti-layered model in the constrained sites, was studied.

  • In this paper the liquefaction of sand bed under oscillating water pressure are treated as a basic study of the prevention works against the scouring around the hydraulic structures. The results of the former resurch show that the occurrence of the liquefaction depends on both properties of the oscillating water pressure and of the sand layer. Considering the latter properties, that is , the resistivity against the liquefaction increases with the increase of the permeability of the sand bed, we propose the displcement method as one of the prevention works, which is a method to displace the upper layer of the sand bed by the sand with large permeability. The effects of this method are investigated theoretically and experimentally. By the experimental study, it is shown that the proposed displacement method has the apparent effect to prevent the liquefaction. The experimental results are explained fairly well by the theoretical analysis based on the theory of the flow through the elastic porous media.

As a result, the antenna tower of AM broadcasting Systems build up clyish plain where has a low earth characteristics resistivity. The following have been observed as a Counter lightning Systems such as high frequency choke, sphere gap(75, 000 V/inch) and reflective power detection relay.

  • The resistivity of cement paste and mortar for freezing and thawing was investigated for densifying the structure of cement paste and mortor, slag, diatomaceous earth and fly ash as blending materials and superplasticizer were used, and air entraining agent was added to absorb the volume expansion by freezing and thawing reaction. And then the specimens were subjected to freeze-thaw in water. When both of air entraining agent and superplasticizer as additives were mixed to specimens, their freeze-thaw resistance was enhanced by the air entraining effect and the water reduction effect. When 4% of slag were added to cement, freeze-thaw resistance was especially excellent. In addition, it was found that the specimens with blending materials were more influenced by curing periods than those without admixture. It is assumed that the curing periods contribute to exibit the potential hydraulicity and pozzolanic reactivity of blending materials and to densify their texture.

  • There are three types of frequency-domain loop-loop EM induction method, depending on the loop separation and their location relative to the ground surface: horizontal-loop EM (HLEM), fixed small-loop EM, and helicopter-borne EM (HEM) methods. Multidimensional inversion provides tomographic images of the subsurface resistivity structure and thus enhances the interpretational accuracy of loop-loop EM data. HLEM method is shown to be effective for exploring groundwater resources in weathered and fractured crystalline basement terrains in semi-arid regions. Also, HEM method is useful for locating weak zones in landslide areas. The applicability of inversion to small-loop EM data depends solely on the S/N ratio. The quadrature response of small-loop EM data can only give the equivalent conductivity of a homogenous half-space model, and thus the in-phase component is essential in inverting EM data. However, the in-phase response is much lower and decreases more rapidly with decreasing frequency than the quadrature response. Further work is needed to obtain conductivity-depth images from small-loop EM data.

  • 대지고유저항은 전력 및 통신설비의 접지설계 또는 송배전선로 및 전기철도의 전자기 유도전압을 예측계산하기위한 필수적인 요소로서 실측 후 분석결과에 의해서 정의되므로 대지고유저항 측정 및 분석결과의 정확도는 접지설계 및 유도전압 계산의 정확도와 연관성이 높다. 따라서 전기안전 및 통신품질의 고도화를 위하여 대지고유저항 측정 및 분석이 중요하다. 현장에서 측정분석이 가능하고 간편하게 측정할 수 있는 국산 측정기를 개발하게 되었다.

  • A physical model experiment with GPR and 3-D resisitivity survey were conducted to investigate the geoelectrical response of hydrocarbon-impacted zone, so called smeared zone, on the geophysical data. The results from the experiment show that GPR signals were enhanced when LNAPL was present as a residual saturation in the water saturated system (${\varepsilon}_r$ = 21) due to less attenuation of the electromagnetic energy through the medium, compared to when the medium was saturated with only water (${\varepsilon}_r$ = 21). 3-D resistivity data obtained from the former gas station site demonstrate that the highly contaminated zones could be imaged with low resistivities attributed to the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons at the aged, hydrocarbon-impacted sites. The study results also show that the geophysical methods, as a non-invasive sounding technique, can be a very useful tool for mapping hydrocarbon-contaminated zones.

  • 한반도 남동부 경상분지에 위치한 양산단층의 지전기학적 구조를 밝히기 위하여 경주시 이조리와 울산시 서하리, 양산시 삼감리와 회산리 사이에서 전기비저항 탐사를 수행하였다. 단층파쇄대는 낮은 전기비저항값을 가지며 단층파쇄대에 분포하는 풍화대는 남쪽으로 향할수록 두꺼워지는 것으로 나타났다. 풍화대의 깊이는 서하리와 회산리에서 약 100 m 이며 다른 지역에서는 약 50-70 m 정도이다. 단층파쇄대에 위치하는 풍화대의 전기비저항값은 회산리에서 얻어진 약 10 Ωm의 매우 낮은 값을 제외하고는 약 40-300 Ωm 정도이다. 연구지역 내에서는 풍화대 하부에 위치하는 기반암의 깊이가 양산단층을 따라 남쪽으로 향할수록 깊어지는 특징적인 변화 양상을 갖는 것으로 보인다. 수평탐사 결과는 양산단층에 가까워질수록 겉보기 비저항값이 감소함을 보여준다
