In geotechnical engineering, the mechanical characteristics of soil, the main material of geotechnical engineering, is highly related to the confining stress. Reduced-scale physical modeling is often conducted to evaluate the performance or to verify the behavior of the geotechnical systems. However, reduced-scale physical modeling cannot replicate the behavior of the full-scale prototype because the reduced-scale causes difference of self weight stress level. Geotechnical centrifuges are commonly used for physical model tests to compensate the model for the stress level. Physical modeling techniques using centrifuge are widely adopted in most of geotechnical engineering fields these days due to its various advantages. In this paper, fundamentals of geotechnical centrifuge modeling and its application area are explained. State-of-the-art geotechnical centrifuge equipment is also described as an example of KOCED geotechnical centrifuge facility at KAIST.

In this paper, physical scale modeling was employed to identify the configurations of ICCP system and the electric field signatures. Computational boundary element modeling technique has been used to simulate the performance of the CP system and to predict the associated electric fields signatures. The optimization methods combined with the computer models and physical scale modeling will be presented here, which enable the optimum system design to be achieved both in terms of the location and current output of the anode but also in the location of reference electrodes for impressed current cathodic protection(ICCP) systems. The combined methodology was utilized to determine optimal placement of ICCP components (anodes and reference electrodes) and to evaluate performance of ICCP system for the 2%, 10% and 14% wetted hull coatings loss. The objective is to design the system to minimise the electric field while at the same time provide adequate protection for the ship. The results show that experimental scale modeling and computational modeling techniques can be used in concert to design an optimum ICCP system and to provide information for quickly analysis of the system and its surrounding environment.

Recently, electrical resistivity survey is used in the various fields and applied to urban area with many electrical noises. Therefor it's necessary to observe the electrical noise effect of the geological structure. The physical scale modeling was conducted for measuring the electric noise effect of the two geological models at various distances, depths and diameters of the electric noise objects. The results are as following. 1. When conductive noise object was vertical to the strike of geological structure and moved to the strike direction, the effect of conductive noise object at various separated distances to the measurement line was disappeared at a half distance measurement line length regardless of electrode arrays. 2. When conductive noise object was vertical to the strike of geological structure and moved to the strike direction, the effect of conductive noise object at various depths was disappeared at 4unit apart from the measurement line regardless of electrode arrays. 3. When conductive noise object was vertical to the strike of geological structure and moved to the strike direction, the effect of conductive noise object at various diameters was disappeared at 4unit apart from the measurement line regardless of electrode arrays.

This research focused on analyzing and comparing between the results of hydraulic physical modeling and the results of numerical modeling of Grass Concrete which is newly developed in-situ block system. The physical model was built as a scale of 1:50 by Froude similitude measuring the water levels and the water velocities for before and after vegetation and the effects were analyzed after reviewing the results. In consequence, the water velocities were observed to decrease meanly 19.1%, and the water depth were determined to increase meanly 27.8% in case of the of design flood, $Q=200m^3/sec$. Moreover, the velocities were produced reduction effects of 27.2%, and the water levels were derived from addition effects of the highest 31.3% in case of the probability maximum flood(PMF), $Q=600m^3/sec$. To verifying the hydraulic physical modeling, the numerical modeling was conducted for a close examination of before and after vegetation. HEC-RAS model was for 1 dimensional numerical analysis and RMA-2 was for 2 dimensional numerical analysis. The results of the numerical simulation, under the condition of roughness coefficient calibration, shows similar results of the physical modeling. These satisfactory results show that the accomplished results of hydraulic modeling and the predicted results of numerical modeling corresponded reasonably each others.

원형(prototype) 철근콘크리트 구조물의 거동을 축소모형실험을 이용하여 연구하기 위해서는 모든 구성재료의 물리적 성질들이 특정상사(similitude)관계 또는 1:1로 복제된 모형재료를 사용하여야 한다. 원형과 모형의 물리적 특성에 관한 상사성에 대해 사전 연구가 되어져야만 축소모형실험결과 해석에 적용할 수 있다. 본 연구는 철근콘크리트 구조물을 축소모형화하는데 따른 구성재료의 물리적 성질과 기본 거동에 관한 문제점들을 파악하고, 개선된 방법을 찾기 위한 것이다. 모형콘크리트에서 발견되는 큰 인장강도를 최소화하기 위해 배합비를 변화시켜서 원형콘크리트에 가장 가까운 모형콘크리트의 제작기법과 모형철근의 표면형태에 따른 거동의 차이를 단순보를 이용하여 연구하였다.

최근 전기비저항탐사는 산악과 같은 지형의 기복이 심한 지역에서도 널리 수행되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 지형의 기복은 전기비저항 탐사자료의 왜곡을 유발하며, 잘못된 해석의 원인이 될 수도 있다. 본 논문에서는 전기비저항탐사에서의 지형효과를 유한요소법에 의한 수치모델링과 축소모형의 두 종류의 모형실험을 통하여 분석하였다. 한편 축소모형실험을 연못에서 수행함으로써, 실내 수조 모형실험에서 문제가 될 수 있는 가장자리 효과를 피할 수 있었다. 다양한 경사를 갖는 능선과 계곡 지형 모형에 대하여 모형실험을 수행하였으며, 두 종류의 실험결과가 실험한 모든 지형모형에 대하여 서로 잘 부합됨을 확인하였다. 분석결과, 계곡모델은 계곡의 중심부에 낮은 겉보기비저항대가 분포하고 그 좌우에 높은 겉보기비저항대가 나타나는 양상을 보이며, 능선모델은 그 반대의 양상을 보인다. 또한 능선 및 계곡 모두 그 경사가 심할 경우에는 음의 겉보기비저항을 나타낼 수도 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 전기비저항 탐사 자료의 해석시 지형효과를 꼭 고려해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

지구과학은 지구와 지구시스템을 기술(description)하던 기존의 역할에서 벗어나, 진화하는 지구 시스템 안에서 일어나는 프로세스의 모델링(process modeling), 시뮬레이션(simulation) 그리고 이러한 현상들을 구상화(visualization)하는 방향으로 그 접근 방법이 서서히 그러나 매우 역동적으로 변화하고 있다. 하지만 이러한 모델링 및 시뮬레이션은 현대의 컴퓨터 기술의 발달에도 불구하고 그 수행이 쉽지는 않다. 그 이유로는 지구의 현상들은 그 현상의 기초원인이 되는 물리적 화학적 프로세스들이 비선형적이며, 서로 다른 프로세스들이 상호 연동되어 발생하고, 시간에 따라 변화를 보이기 때문이다. 더구나 이러한 복잡한 프로세스들이 암석의 공극구조라는 매우 복잡한 구조 안에 일어날 때, 그 현상의 모델링 및 시뮬레이션은 그 어려움이 더욱 커지게 된다.따라서 이러한 지구시스템의 여러 가지 프로세스들에 대한 효과적인 모델링 및 시뮬레이션을 위해선 지구의 기본 구성단위인 암석의 구조, 즉 복잡한 공극구조의 이해 및 그 형태를 효과적으로 컴퓨터상에서 수치적으로 기술하는 방법의 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 본 발표에서는 이러한 공극스케일의 모델링을 위한 격자볼츠만 방법, 유한요소법을 이용한 수치방법과 그 결과와, 지구의 여러가지 비선형적이고 시간종속적인 프로세서의 모델링에의 응용가능성에 대한 내용을 제시한다.

This study was conducted to construct a hypothetical model of depression in Korean adolescent women and validate the fit of the model to the empirical data. The data were collected from 345 high school girls in Seoul, from May 1 to June 30, 1998. The instruments were the Body Mass Index, Physical Satisfaction Scale, Family Adaptatibility and Cohesion Evaluation Scale III, Family Satisfaction Scale, CES-D and School Adptation Scale. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics with the pc -SAS program. The Linear Structural Relationship(LISREL) modeling process was used to find the best fit model which would predict the causal relationships among the variables. The overall fit of the hypothetical model to the data was moderate ［X$^2$＝69.6(df＝17, p＝.000), GFI ＝0.95, AGFI＝0.90, RMR＝0.087, NNFI＝0.86, NFI＝0.90］. The predictable variables, especially menstrual symptoms, physical symptoms and family function, had a significant direct effect on depression. but school life adaptation did not have a significant direct effect. These variables explained 18.1% of the total variance.

The purpose of this study was to validate the Korean version of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) using Rasch analysis. The data was obtained from the assessments of 59 children with cerebral palsy in Korea and were applied to Rasch's rating scale model to estimate the difficulty and goodness-of-fit of each item. Rasch modeling helped us to identify 76 items from the original 88-item GMFM that form an unidimensional hierarchical scale to rearrange 76 items in order of difficulty. Reliability coefficients of the 88-item and 76-item GMFM were .99 and .99, respectively. In this preliminary report, the Korean version of GMFM seems to have significant validity and reliability. These results may be useful in assessment of gross motor functions in children with cerebral palsy.
