This study was conducted to estimate the optimum temperature and required time for soil sterilization when heated water was circulated through underground heating pipes in the greenhouse which solar heat was influenced to the temperature of soil during the summer day. Two different types of heating pipes were used for the experiment. One was a polyethylene pipe(XL) and the other was a corrugated ring shaped stainless steel pipe(STS). The results of the studies were summarized as follows; By measuring the thermal characteristics of the XL and STS, it was examined that the average temperature differences of the inlet and outlet were $8.5^{\circ}C$ and $13.3^{\circ}C$, the average flowrates were 15.3 L/min and 5.6 L/min, and the average radiation powers were 9.1 kW and 4.1 kW, respectively. As results of the regression analysis of underground temperatures, when average soil temperature was$35^{\circ}C$, an average water temperature was $80^{\circ}C$, and XL was used, it was estimated that the possible heat transfer distance, the required time for heat transfer and heat flux to reach the underground temperature of $60^{\circ}C$ were 300 mm, 230 hours, and $7.57kW/m^2$, respectively.

도시기반시설인 지중관거의 노후화가 심화되면서, 최근 도심지의 관거 주변에서 공동발생과 지반함몰 사례가 빈번하게 보고되고 있다. 지중관거 균열과 관련된 공동발생 및 지반함몰에 대해 많은 연구가 수행된 바 있으나, 기존 연구내용은 주로 관거의 균열 발생원인과 지반침하 거동에 집중되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 관거의 균열을 통한 지하수와 토립자 유출특성과 공동발생 메커니즘을 조사하였다. 또한, 토사유출로 인해 공동이 발생하고 지반함몰로 발전해가는 과정에 대한 가설을 수립하여 토립자 유출의 수리적 특성을 규명하고자 하였다. 관거 균열을 통한 토립자 유출 및 공동발생 메커니즘 규명을 위해 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 모형실험으로부터 관거 균열을 통해 유출된 토립자를 측정하고, 실험과정을 영상촬영하여 PIV 분석을 통해 입자의 이동특성을 조사하였다. 본 연구를 통해 지중에서 발생하는 토립자의 이동, 공동발생 및 지반함몰 거동은 근본적으로 지하수의 이동에 의해 발생하는 것이며, 균열 위치와 관거 형상에 영향을 받음을 확인하였다.

Pipe jacking is a name for a method to excavate a tunnel by pushing pipe into the ground from an especial pit. Size of tunnels in this method is different from under 900mm (microtunneling) to more than 3,000mm. Method of excavation is also different from hand digging to use of any kind of tunnel boring machines such as slurry and earth pressure balance (EPB) machines. Slurry pipe jacking was firmly established as a special method for the nondisruptive construction of the underground tunnels in urban area. During the pipe jacking and microtunneling process, the jacking load is an important parameter, controlling the pipe wall thickness, need to and location of intermediate jacking station, selection of jacking frame and lubrication requirements. The main component of the jacking load is due to frictional resistance. In this paper the skin friction between pipe surface and surrounding condition also lubricant quality based on a few fundamental tests, were considered. During this study unconfined compressive strength test, dynamic friction measurement test and direct shear box test were raised for one of the largest diameter slurry pipe jacking project in Fujisawa city in Japan. It could be concluded that in slurry pipe jacking, prediction of frictional forces are mainly dependent on successful lubrication, its quality and lubricant strength parameters. Conclusions from this study can be used for the same experiences.

Water distribution pipes installed underground have potential risks of pipe failure and burst. After years of use, pipe walls tend to be corroded due to aggressive soil environments where they are located. The present study aims to assess the degree of external corrosion of a distribution pipe network. In situ data obtained through test pit excavation and direct sampling are carefully collated and assessed. A statistical approach is useful to predict severity of pipe corrosion at present and in future. First, criteria functions defined by discriminant function analysis are formulated to judge whether the pipes are seriously corroded. Data utilized in the analyses are those related to soil property, i.e., soil resistivity, pH, water content, and chloride ion. Secondly, corrosion factors that significantly affect pipe wall pitting (vertical) and spread (horizontal) on the pipe surface are identified with a view to quantifying a degree of the pipe corrosion. Finally, a most reliable model represented in the form of a multiple regression equation is developed for this purpose. From these analyses, it can be concluded that our proposed model is effective to predict the severity and rate of pipe corrosion utilizing selected factors that reflect the fuzzy soil environment.

팽창형 강관 록볼트의 설치 전 단면 형상은 ${\Omega}$형이어서, 팽창 중 거동은 기하학적 비선형 특성을 보인다. 기존 팽창형 강관 록볼트의 정착 거동에 관한 연구는 주로 이론적 방법이었다. 하지만 이론적 방법은 팽창형 강관 록볼트의 등방 팽창을 가정하므로, 실제 거동을 지나치게 단순화하였다. 본 연구에서는 강관 팽창 거동의 비선형성과 다양한 영향 특성을 고려한 수치해석을 이용하여, 팽창형 강관 록볼트의 정착 거동을 모사하였다. 본 해석을 통해 강관의 팽창 과정, 접촉응력 분포, 평균 접촉 응력 및 접촉 면적의 변화를 분석하였다. 암반의 탄소성 조건에 따라 강관의 접촉응력이 다르게 나타났는데, 탄성 조건의 암반에 설치된 강관에 비해 탄소성 조건의 암반에 설치된 강관에서 작은 접촉응력이 발생했다. 또한 암반의 강성에 따라 팽창형 강관 록볼트의 정착 거동이 달라졌다. 주어진 해석 조건에서 암반 강성이 0.5 GPa 이하 일 때 강관은 완전히 펴지지만, 암반 강성이 0.5 GPa보다 클 때 완전히 펴지지 않았다. 강관이 완전히 펴진 경우 암반 강성이 증가함에 따라 접촉응력의 크기가 증가했지만, 강관이 완전히 펴지지 않은 경우 암반 강성이 증가함에 따라 접촉응력의 크기가 감소했다.

Despite high cost, the underground power distribution system has been preferred by utilities and customers due to its stability and good living environment. Utilities, however, are burdened with the cost of installation as the service region of underground power system is getting enlarged. In this paper, a design method is proposed in order to reduce the construction cost of underground distribution system. That is an optimum algorithm, which can increase the total number of pipes in a limited space compared with a conventional design method. As a result, the proposed design method can reduce efficiently the construction cost of underground distribution system.

There are a number of reported instances of actual pipeline rupture during power line faults caused by melting of the pipe wall. This type of hazard was considered to be among the most serious of AC effects on pipelines in an international survey, comparable to the personnel safety hazard. Moreover, resistance coupling is not only a risk when the pipeline parallels a power line but also when they cross. One method of minimizing the effects of resistive coupling is by maintaining an appropriate separation distance between the pipeline and tower. This paper investigate the experiment for separation distance between the powerline earth and pipelines.

Due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, water supply and sewer line systems are also developed relevantly. Manhole is an essential component structure of the pipeline system. Manhole is a structure constructed to accommodate the direction, dimension, differences in level, and easy of maintenance in the pipeline system. In this paper we present the result of investigations pertaining to the structural behavior of PVC sewer manhole buried underground. In the paper mechanical properties of PVC material are reported. In addition, by the finite element analysis (FEA), we confirmed that a PVC double-wall corrugated pipe manhole, when it is buried underground, is safe for the stress as well as buckling strength if the manhole is constructed within the suggested limit of buried depth.

PURPOSES : This study identifies the causes and the mechanism of the occurrence of underground cavities. METHODS : A case study on cave-in and a series of model tests with a small soil chamber were conducted. RESULTS : A hypothesis about the mechanism of the cave-in in road was established, and the basic influencing factors on underground cavity expansion were identified. CONCLUSIONS : It was found that the characteristics of shear strength of soil and direction of water flow had a larger influence on cavity formation and expansion than the characteristics of internal erosion. In addition, large cavities suddenly expanded when cavities were caused owing to breakage of buried sewer pipe.
