Granular bed filters are widely used to remove particulate matter in flue gas and are filled with various shapes of packing material. The packing material plays an important role in determining the overall collection performance, such as pressure drop and collection efficiency. The pressure drop of a granular bed filter has been calculated using the Ergun equation, while the collection efficiency has been predicted using the log-penetration equation based on the single sphere theory. However, a prediction equation of collection efficiency for a granular bed filter filled with non-spherical packing materials has not been suggested yet. Therefore, in this study, three different shapes of packing materials (sphere, cylinder, and irregular) were prepared to propose a prediction equation. The pressure drop and collection efficiency in a granular bed filter filled with each shape of packing material were measured experimentally and compared with theoretically predicted values. We found that experimentally measured pressure drops matched well with values theoretically predicted using the Ergun equation considering the shape factor. However, experimental collection efficiencies were higher than theoretical ones predicted by the log-penetration equation using the single sphere theory. We modified the log-penetration equation by employing a shape factor and found a good relationship between experimental and theoretical collection efficiencies.

조밀한 건조조립토와 건설재료(콘크리트재)사이의 경계에서의 동마찰계수를 구하기 위하여 진동대를 사용하여 동적직접전단시험을 실시하였다. 조밀한 건조조립토와 건설재료사이의 동마찰계수는 본 연구에서 고려한 미끄러짐 속도의 범위안에서는 크게 변하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 동마찰계수는 조립토의 평균입경이 증가함에 따라 감소하였고, 이에 대한 관계식을 제안하였다. 또한 이 계수를 같은 조립토에 대하여 실시한 평면변형률시험으로 얻어진 내부마찰각으로부터의 마찰계수와 비교하였다.

A numerical study has been conducted to examine the improvement achieved in the ultimate pullout capacity of horizontal circular anchor plates embedded in undrained clay, by constructing granular columns of varying diameter over the anchor plates. The analysis has been carried out by using lower bound theorem of limit analysis and finite elements in combination with linear programming. The improvement in uplifting capacity of anchor plate is expressed in terms of an efficiency factor (${\xi}$). The efficiency factor (${\xi}$) has been defined as the ratio of ultimate vertical pullout capacity of anchor plate having diameter D embedded in soft clay reinforced by granular column to the vertical pullout capacity of the anchor plate with same diameter D embedded in soft clay only. The variation of efficiency factor (${\xi}$) for different embedment ratios and different diameter of granular column has been studied considering a wide range of softness of clay and different value of soil internal friction angle (${\phi}$) of the granular material. It is observed that ${\xi}$ increases with an increase in diameter of the granular column ($D_t$) and increase in friction angle of granular material. Also, the effectiveness of the usage of granular column increases with decrease in cohesion of the clay.

연약지반에 구조물을 시공하는 경우가 빈번해짐에 따라 연약지반 개량의 필요성이 증대하고 있다. Granular pile 공법은 연약한 점성토 지반이나 느슨한 사질토 지반의 개량에 사용되는 연약지반처리공법이다. 국내에서는 모래를 이용한 SCP공법은 종종 사용해 왔지만 쇄석을 이용한 Granular pile은 외국에 비해 그 사용실적이 미비한 실정이다. 그러나 모래자원의 고갈에 따른 환경적, 경제적인 문제때문에 모래 대신 이용할 수 있는 대체재의 필요성이 절실해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Granular pile 공법에 의해 개량된 연약한 점성토 지반의 거동 특성을 파악하기 위하여 모형토조를 이용한 하중재하 및 압밀시험을 실시하였다. 또한, Pile 재료로서 모래뿐만 아니라 쇄석을 이용한 실내모형 시험으로 각각의 재료에 따른 지지력 특성 및 침하 특성, 배수 특성 등의 공학적 특성을 비교 평가하여 모래의 대체재로서 쇄석의 활용가능성을 검토하였다. 시험결과, 쇄석은 모래 재료에 비해 지지력증대와 침하저감효과가 크고, 유사한 간극수압특성을 보여 모래의 대체재료로서 쇄석의 활용이 가능하다고 판단된다.

One of the major sources causing eutrophication and algal blooms of lakes or streams is phosphorus which comes from point and nonpoint pollution sources. HAP (hydroxyapatite) crystallization using granular alkaline materials can achieve the decrease of phosphorus load from wastewater treatment plants and nonpoint pollution control facilities. In order to induce HAP crystal formation, continuous supply of calcium and hydroxyl ions is required. In this research, considering HAP crystallization, several types of lime-based granular alkaline materials were prepared, and the elution characteristics of calcium and hydroxyl ions of each were analyzed. Also, column tests were performed to verify phosphorus removal efficiencies of granular alkaline materials. Material_1 (gypsum+cement mixed material) achieved the highest pH values in the column tests consistently, also, Material_2 (gypsum+slag mixed material) and Material_3 (calcined limestone material) achieved over pH 9.0 for 240 hours (10 days) and proved the efficiencies of long-term ion supplier for HAP crystallization. In the column tests using Material_3, considerable pH increase and phosphorus removal were carried out according to each linear velocity and filtration depth. T-P removal efficiencies were 87.0, 84.0, 68.0% and those of PO4-P 100.0, 97.0, 80.0% for linear velocity of 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 m/hr respectively. Based on the column test results, the applicability of phosphorus removal processes for small-scale wastewater treatment plants and nonpoint pollution control facilities was found out.

Granular Compaction Pile are commonly used to improve bearing capacity and reduce settlements of soft soil in coastal and lowland areas. In this paper, through the field load test results of straight granular compaction piles and taper granular compaction piles, material properties of ground and GCP for numerical analysis were drawn and numerical model was established. In the numerical analysis of taper granular compaction piles with 3 different sections, a optimum dimension of taper granular compaction pile was considered at the side of settlement.

Rockfill zones in CFRD consist typically of large granular materials, usually the maximum particle size up to several meters, which makes laboratory testing to determine the mechanical properties of rockfill difficult. Commonly, the design strength of the rockfills is obtained by scaling down the original rockfill materials and performing laboratory strength tests for the reduced size materials. The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of particle size on the shear behavior and the strength for granular materials. A series of large-scale triaxial tests was conducted on large granular materials with the maximum particle size varying from 20 to 50mm. The test results showed that overall shear behaviors were similar between the samples with different particle sizes while there were slight differences in the magnitudes of the peak shear stress between the samples. In addition, a simulation of the granular material with the max. particle size of 20mm was performed using DEM code, $PFC^{2D}$, and compared with the test results. The deviatoric stress versus strain behaviors of experimental and numerical tests were found to be matched well up to the peak stress state.

In order to reduce the emission of harmful substances that degrade indoor air quality, the Ministry of Environment strengthened the standards for the content of VOCs in paints to supply and sell eco-friendly paints. In this related study, an eco-friendly paint mixed with a powder-type absorbent material was prepared and its characteristics were reviewed. As the amount of powder-type absorbent material increased, the workability (viscosity, peeling, etc) decreased. Accordingly, this study aims to examine which particle size is suitable according to the particle size of the granular adsorbent while improving the problem of the powdery adsorbent by using the granular adsorbent. As an experimental plan, the particle size of granular activated clay is selected to be 0.250, 0.425, 0.710(mm), and the decrease rate of VOCs concentration and impact resistance are reviewed. As a result of the experiment, as the particle size of the granular activated clay increased, the decrease rate of the VOCs concentration increased and the impact resistance improved. Therefore, considering the problems that occur after actual painting, the particle size of granular activated clay of 0.425mm is suitable.

The effect of various parameters on the propagation of surface waves in electro-magneto thermoelastic orthotropic granular non-homogeneous medium subjected to gravity and initial compression has been studied. All material coefficients are obeyed the same exponent-law dependence on the depth of the granular elastic half space. Some special cases investigated by earlier researchers have also been deduced. Dispersion curves are computed numerically and presented graphically.
