In this study, a series of scaled model test were carried out in order to find factors that influence the ultimate load of underreamed anchors. Model anchors were made of arcril and 3cm in diameter. Series of tests were performed with various conditions such as density of soil, diameter of bulb, and number of bulb. Type of soil was Jumunjin sand and relative density varied 40%, 60%, 80%.

Due to the nature of the conjunctive Cone Penetration Test(CPT), which does not verify the actual sample directly, geotechnical engineers commonly classify the underground geomaterials using CPT results with the classification diagrams proposed by various researchers. However, such classification diagrams may fail to reflect local geotechnical characteristics, potentially resulting in misclassification that does not align with the actual stratification in regions with strong local features. To address this, this paper presents an objective method for more accurate local CPT soil classification criteria, which utilizes C4.5 decision tree models trained with the CPT results from the clay-dominant southern coast of Korea and the sand-dominant region in South Carolina, USA. The results and analyses demonstrate that the C4.5 algorithm, in conjunction with oversampling, outlier removal, and pruning methods, can enhance and optimize the decision tree-based CPT soil classification model.

This study conducted shear strength test and plate bearing test to look into the characteristics of bearing capacity using geosynthetics case on forest road surface. The shear strength test showed that the internal friction angle at the time when geosynthetics was used was measured larger on average than that in the unreinforced case. Therefore, using geosynthetics case produced more bearing capacity reinforcement effect. The result from the comparison test of internal friction angle by geosynthetics type revealed that the internal friction angle at the time when geotextile case was used was measured larger. That was attributable to the difference between the area of the total cross section of geotextile made in type of non-woven fabric and its material. Plate bearing test showed that the settlement at the time when geosynthetics was used was measured smaller than that in the unreinforced case. Therefore, using geosynthetics produced more bearing power reinforcement effect. The result from the comparison test showed that geogrid case was measured smaller than geotextile case. Henceforth, It is seemed that it will be necessary to keep studying the reinforcement engineering and process of forest road surface which fits the characteristics and conditions of geosynthetics to prevent forest road demage.

Objectives Effects of nanoparticles including zinc oxide nanoparticles, titanium oxide nanoparticles, and their mixtures on skin corrosion and irritation were investigated by using in vitro 3D human skin models ($KeraSkin^{TM}$) and the results were compared to those of an in vivo animal test. Methods Skin models were incubated with nanoparticles for a definite time period and cell viability was measured by the 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2.5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide method. Skin corrosion and irritation were identified by the decreased viability based on the pre-determined threshold. Results Cell viability after exposure to nanomaterial was not decreased to the pre-determined threshold level, which was 15% after 60 minutes exposure in corrosion test and 50% after 45 minutes exposure in the irritation test. IL-$1{\alpha}$ release and histopathological findings support the results of cell viability test. In vivo test using rabbits also showed non-corrosive and non-irritant results. Conclusions The findings provide the evidence that zinc oxide nanoparticles, titanium oxide nanoparticles and their mixture are 'non corrosive' and 'non-irritant' to the human skin by a globally harmonized classification system. In vivo test using animals can be replaced by an alternative in vitro test.

Bi-directional load test is one of O-cell tests. The O-cell test is a system which may be used for performing static load tests on cast in situ reinforced concrete bored piles. The technique was devised and developed by Osterberg of Northwestern University(USA) and has been in use around the world. The principle of the method is that an O-cell is installed in a cast in situ bored pile base. Once the pile concrete reaches its design strength the cell is connected to an hydraulic pump and pressured. Pressurization causes the cell to expand, developing an upward force on the section of pile above the cell loads, pile movements and strains within the pile then enable the capacity of the pile and its load settlement curves to be ascertained. The O-cell pile load test with variable end plate is operated on second steps - the first step is to confirming end bearing capacity with variable end plate and the second step is similar to the conventional O-cell test. In the study, To calculate ultimate capacity of bi-directional load test using model with the pile with variable end plate O-cell.

본 연구는 최근 개발된 알칼리성 실리카졸 그라우팅재의 적용성 및 주입효과를 규명한 것으로서 연구에 사용된 그라우트재는 3차원겔 형성재인 알칼리성 실리카졸 그라우팅재와 규산나트륨 그라우팅재에 대한 공학적 특성을 비교하기 위하여 실내시험을 실시하여 강도특성 및 환경영향성을 검토하였으며, 현장시험 등을 통해 차수성과 주입효과를 검토하여 현장적용성을 규명하고자 하였다. 실내시험결과 알칼리성 실리카졸의 일축압축강도는 규산나트륨에 비해 약 5배 정도 증가하는 현상이 나타났고 용탈시험결과 용탈되는 원소의 총량도 극히 작아 친환경적인 재료임이 입증되었다. 현장시험결과 동수층에서도 상당한 투수계수 저감효과를 확인하였고, 시방기준인 $10^{-5}cm/sec$보다 낮은 투수계수를 확보하였다. 주입확인시험결과 페놀프탈레인 반응시험, 전기비저항탐사에서 주입효과가 양호한 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 석탄회 2종류, 석탄회와 폐타이어 혼합재료, 일반 풍화토 등 4가지 재료에 대해 현장에 시험성토체를 조성하고 1년 동안의 장기 모니터링을 통해 성토체 거동 특성 및 수질 영향을 분석하였다. 지반공학적 측면에서 재료별로 변형 거동의 차이는 보이지 않았으며, 동절기에도 성토체 내부의 동결로 인한 석탄회 재료의 강도감소 가능성은 낮은 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 성토체에서의 침하도 관측되지 않았는데 이는 성토체 하부 지반이 장기적인 압밀침하가 발생할 정도로 연약한 상태가 아니기 때문으로 판단된다. 수질 영향 평가에서는 분석된 모든 중금속과 황산염을 제외한 음이온들이 국내외 먹는물 기준치 이하로 검출되었다. 황산염의 경우 성토체 설치 후 모든 성토체에서 20일 동안 기준치를 초과하는 농도로 검출되었으나, 그 이후 급격히 감소하여 50일 이후 기준치 이하로 검출되었으며, 60일 이후에는 더 이상 검출되지 않았다.

In this study, to investigate the effects of herb aroma components, the BDI test was performed with the 124 students of the Youngdong University and the subjects whose score was 16 or higher were selected and allocated to the herb-extracted aroma-treated group and the non-treated group, 27 and 10 students for each group. The BDI and SDS tests were carried out at each stage (before and after the treatment, 10 days later and 30 days later). The result showed that the pre-treatment BDI test result was significantly different from all those of the post-treatment test, and the tests after 10 days and 30 days in the aroma-treated group. In the SDS test, the pre-treatment test result was significantly different from the results of the post-treatment test and the test after 10 days, while it was not significantly different from the result of the test after 30 days. Additionally, to verify whether the change within the group is larger than that by natural recovery or not, ANCOVA was performed with respect to the difference in the pre-treatment test score between the groups depending on whether the treatment was given or not, having the SDS pre-treatment score as the covariate, and the result showed that the post-treatment test scores were significantly different. Thus, it was verified that, if the SDS test score is considered as the depression indicator, the effect of aromatherapy was greater than the change by natural recovery. The difference in the post-treatment test score was analyzed depending on whether the treatment was given or not, having the BDI pre-treatment test score as the control variable, and the result showed that the post-treatment test scores were not significantly different. Based on such a theoretical verification, it is assumed that the nature-friendly treatment method using herb aroma components can be a great help in suppressing depression. Therefore, it is expected that herb aroma components can provide systematic therapeutic effect on the suppression of depression.

This study aimed to provide preliminary data for the improvement of the tree doctor qualification test (first written test), which was newly created by enforcing the Forest Protection Act on June 28, 2018., The high demand for system improvement accelerated this study. The results were analyzeds through literature and questionnaire surveys. Writing test questions and the license of the tree doctor qualification exam are currently managed by the Korea Forestry Research Institute, and it is deemed that the test should be entrusted to Human Resources Development Service of Korea for fair and transparent management. Additionally, the plan for the improvement of the subject-wise scope of examination questions writing, difficulty of test questions, and acceptance rate of the first test should be prepared after public hearings or seminars related to the examination questions.
