The need to predict the rate of soil erosion, both under existing conditions and those expected to occur following soil conservation practice, has been led to the development of various models. In this study Morgan model especially developed for field-sized areas on hill slopes was applied to assess the rate of soil erosion using RS/GIS environment in the Dukchun river basin, one of two tributaries flowing into Jinyang lake. In order to run the model, land cover mapping was made by the supervised classification method with Landsat TM satellite image data, the digital soil map was generated from scanning and screen digitizing from the hard copy of soil maps, digital elevation map (DEM) in order to generate the slope map was made by the digital map (DM) produced by National Geographic Information Institute (NGII). Almost all model parameters were generated to the multiple raster data layers, and the map calculation was made by the raster based GIS software, IL WIS which was developed by ITC, the Netherlands. Model results show that the annual soil loss rates are 5.2, 18.4, 30.3, 58.2 and 60.2 ton/ha/year in forest, paddy fields, built-up area, bare soil, and upland fields respectively. The estimated rates seemed to be high under the normal climatic conditions because of exaggerated land slopes due to DEM generation using 100 m contour interval. However, the results were worthwhile to estimate soil loss in hilly areas and the more precise result could be expected when the more accurate slope data is available.

The soil does not only serve as a medium for plant growth but also for engineering construction purposes. It is very weak in tension, very strong in compression and fails only by shearing. The behaviour of the soil under any form of loading and the interactions of the earth materials during and after any engineering construction work has a major influence on the success, economy and the safety of the work. Soils and their management have therefore become a broad social concern. A limitless variety of soil materials are encountered in both agronomy and engineering problems, varying from hard, dense, large pieces of rock through gravel, sand, silt and clay to organic deposits of soft compressible peat. All these materials may occur over a range of physical properties, such as water contents, texture, bulk density and strength of soils. Therefore, to deal properly with soils and soil materials in any case requires knowledge and understanding of these physical properties. The desired value of bulk density varies with the degree of stability required in construction. Bulk density is also used as an indicator of problems of root penetration,soil aeration and also water infiltration. This property is also used in foundation engineering problems. While not conforming to standard test procedures, this work attempts to add to the basic information on such important soil parameters as water content, bulk density.

Ultrasound and Surfactant aided soil washing process has been shown to be an effective method to remove diesel from soils. The use of surfactants can improve the mobility of diesel in soil-water systems by increasing solubility of adsorbed diesel into surfactant micelles. However, a large amount of surfactant is required for treatment. In addition, synthetic surfactants, specially anionic, are more toxic and the surfactant wastewater is hard to treat by conventional wastewater treatments even by AOPs. Ultrasound improves desorption of the diesel adsorbed on to soil. The mechanisms are based on physical breakage of bonds by hot spot, directly impact onto soil particle surface, the fragmentation of long-chain hydrocarbons by micro-jet and microstreaming in the soil pores. The use of ultrasound as an enhancement method in both anionic and nonionic surfactant aided soil-washing processes were studied. And all experiments were examined proceeded under CMC surfactant concentration, frequency 35 khz, power 400 W, Soil-water ratio 1:3(wt%), particle size 0.24 ~ 2mm and initial diesel concentration. 20,000 mg/kg. Combination with ultrasound showed significant enhancements on all the processes. Especially, nonionic surfactant Triton-X100 with ultrasound showed remarkable enhancements and diesel removal rate enhanced by ultrasound helps desorpting of surfactant adsorbed onto soils which prevented decreasing surfactant activity.

BACKGROUND: Wastewaters were collected from 25 sites of two industrial areas of Mymensingh and Gazipur in Bangladesh to assess metallic toxicity of wastewater for irrigation usage. METHODS AND RESULTS: The analyzed wastewaters were slightly alkaline to alkaline in nature and were problematic for irrigation except 3 samples. As per TDS values, 9 samples were rated as fresh water and the rest 16 were classified as brackish water. EC and SAR reflected that all samples were medium salinity (C2), high salinity (C3), very high salinity (C4) and low alkalinity (S1) hazard classes expressed as C2S1, C3S1 and C4S1. Wastewaters of different industries were graded as excellent, good, permissible and doubtful for irrigation purpose as per SSP. According to hardness ($H_T$), wastewater were under moderately hard, hard and very hard classes. Cd, Cr and Cu ions were treated as toxicant for irrigating soils and crops. Zn was problematic for long-term irrigation. The concentrations of Pb, Fe and Na were far below the toxic levels. Synergistic relationships were observed between pH-EC, pH-TDS, EC-TDS, SAR-SSP and SSP-hardness. CONCLUSION(s): If wastewater is applied for irrigation due to the fresh water shortage, it can contaminate soil due to some toxic metal ions.

Entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae, were isolated from the soil of mulberry field, and the high infectivity and invesiveness were confirmed in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. The cause of non-microbial and acute flacherie was found as an disease by infection with soil-born nematodes through the mulberry leaves contaminated with soil and rainwater. The causal nematodes were isolated by silkworm trap from all of the 5 soil samples collected on the 5 mulberry fields, and identified as 3 strains of Heterorhabditis sp. and 2 of Steinernema sp. Rainwater itself, however, wasn't engaged in the silkworm disease, mulberry leaves with rainwater was rather profitable for cocoon production when the leaf quality was too hard to feed silkworm. Feeding of wet mulberry leaves with rain might not so harm to silkworm when the condition of rearing room to be kept at suitable temperature and ventilated well. Nematode infection of silkworm could be occurred by harvesting and feeding of contaminated mulberry leaves on the weather condition of rainy and wind. For the prevention of nematode infection, silkworms should be fed the leaves harvested from the higher portion of the mulberry tree in rainy days. For an oppositional application of this susceptibility of silkworms to nematode, might be useful on the collection and amplification of nematode agents for biotic control of pest insects.

Archaeoentomological investigations were conducted on soil contents from a grave belonging to the Joseon Dynasty as part of the Urban Environment Maintenance Project (UEMP) in Cheongjin 12-16 dong (districts), Jongno-gu, Seoul, Korea, from December 01, 2008 to February 19, 2011. A total of 28 insect puparia with hard shells of the common green bottle fly Lucilia sericata were identified in the soil. Evidence suggested that the corpse was placed outside for some days instead of being buried immediately after death. This is the first report of fly puparia in soil samples from a tomb of the Joseon Dynasty during 16-17 AD in Korea. Our findings may help determine the timeframe of burial and offer archaeological insights into the funerary customs of the period.

In this paper, it is aimed to determine the structural behavior of suspension bridges considering construction stages and different soil conditions. Bosporus Suspension Bridge connecting the Europe and Asia in Istanbul is selected as an example. Finite element model of the bridge is constituted using SAP2000 program considering existing drawings. Geometric nonlinearities are taken into consideration in the analysis using P-Delta large displacement criterion. The time dependent material strength of steel and concrete and geometric variations is included in the analysis. Time dependent material properties are considered as compressive strength, aging, shrinkage and creep for concrete, and relaxation for steel. To emphases the soil condition effect on the structural behavior of suspension bridges, each of hard, medium and soft soils are considered in the analysis. The structural behavior of the bridge at different construction stages and different soil conditions has been examined. Two different finite element analyses with and without construction stages are carried out and results are compared with each other. At the end of the analyses, variation of the displacement and internal forces such as bending moment, axial forces and shear forces for bridge deck and towers are given in detail. Also, displacement and stresses for bridge foundation are given with detail. It can be seen from the analyses that there are some differences between both analyses (with and without construction stages) and the results obtained from the construction stages are bigger. It can be stated that the analysis without construction stages cannot give the reliable solutions. In addition, soil condition have effect on the structural behavior of the bridge. So, it is thought that construction stage analysis using time dependent material properties, geometric nonlinearity and soil conditions effects should be considered in order to obtain more realistic structural behavior of suspension bridges.

본 논문은 모노파일 풍력 지지구조물에 대한 공진 안전성 평가에서 여러 말뚝-구조물 상호작용(PSI) 모델을 사용하여 고유진동수를 비교하였다. PSI 재현을 위한 유한요소모델은 기저 스프링 모델, 분산 스프링 모델, 3차원 고체-쉘 모델을 사용하였다. PSI 모델이 고유주파수에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 기저 스프링과 분산 스프링 모델 적용을 위한 강성행렬 산정법과 Winkler 보 모델을 각각 논문에 나타내고 이들 모델로부터 도출된 서로 다른 기하 및 지반조건을 갖는 모노파일의 고유진동수를 조사하였다. 해석결과는 또한 3차원 고체-쉘 모델의 고유진동수와도 비교되었다. 해석결과는 소구경 모노파일이 견고한 지반 및 암반에 관입된 경우 각 해석모델로부터 얻어진 고유진동수의 차이가 거의 없음을 보여준다. 반면 연약 지반에 설치된 대구경 모노파일에 대해 분산스프링 모델은 고유진동수를 과대평가할 수 있다. 따라서 고유진동수 평가 시 구조물 규모와 지반 조건을 고려해 적합한 PSI모델이 적용되어야 한다.

지반공학적으로 흙의 함수비는 흙의 역학적 거동특성을 예측할 수 있는 중요한 인자이다. 통례적으로 흙의 함수비는 $105^{\circ}C$ 건조로에서 16~24시간 동안 건조해 함수비 값을 구한다. 현재 이러한 방법은 가장 보편적인 방법이며 많은 실험 데이타가 축척되어 있으나, 동시에 현장에서 사용하기에는 많은 시간을 필요로 하고 문제 발생 시 신속한 대책마련이 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 최근 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해서 외국의 실험규정(ASTM, JGS)에서는 microwave oven을 이용한 함수비 측정법이 제정되어 있다. 또한 microwave oven에 의한 함수비의 신뢰성 평가에 관한 연구도 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 주문진표준사, 카올리나이트, 벤토나이트, 화강풍화토, 유기토 등을 대상으로 microwave oven을 이용한 함수비 측정방법의 타당성을 확인했다. 신뢰성에 영향을 미치는 인자에 대해서 분석하고 신뢰성을 높이기 위한 방법에 대해서 고찰하였다.

현재 국내 설계기준에는 풍화암이나 N치 50이상의 양질의 토사지반에서의 현장타설말뚝 지지력 산정방법이 별도로 제시되어 있지 않으며, 말뚝의 지지력에 영향을 미치는 많은 요소를 반영할 수 있는 방법 또한 제시되어 있지 않다. 따라서 현장타설말뚝의 지지력을 산정하기 위해 지반을 토사와 암으로만 구분하고 있으며, 이로 인해 IGM으로 분류될 수 있는 풍화암을 대부분의 경우 양질의 토사지반으로 간주하여 지지력을 추정하고 있다. O'Neill 등(1996)의 연구보고서와 FHWA(1999) 설계기준에는 토사와 암반의 중간특성을 지닌 지반, 즉 IGM에서의 현장타설말뚝 지지력 산정방법을 제시하고 있으며, FHWA(1999) 설계기준에서는 IGM을 포함하여 지반을 명확하게 분류함으로써 이를 설계에 반영할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서는 IGM에서의 지지력 이론을 적용한 국내 3개 현장의 현장타설말뚝 설계사례 분석하여 그 이론의 적용성을 평가하였다. IGM에서의 현장타설말뚝의 지지력과 비교하기 위해 IGM을 양질의 사질토 지반으로 간주하고 지지력을 산정하였으며, 이를 비교 분석하였다. 지지력 비교 결과, 풍화암을 IGM으로 분류하고 IGM에서의 지지력 이론을 적용한 경우 전반적으로 지지력이 크게 나타났다.
