Slope stability analysis of unsaturated soil slopes due to rainfall infiltration is an important issue in evaluating landslide analysis and stability assessment. The purpose of this study is to establish the critical depth considering weathered soil of parent rock and rainfall intensity at main scarp in national landslide. Based on the analytical results, it is found that as rainfall duration and Slope angle increased, the critical depth of gneiss-weathered soil increased from 3.00 m to 3.77 m, the critical depth of granite weathered-soil increased from 1.75 m to 2.40 m, and the critical depth of mudstone-weathered soil increased from 3.00 m to 4.15 m, respectively. The critical depth of granite-weathered soil with low cohesion and high internal friction angle is much lower than those of other soils. It is interestingly shown that a decrease in the safety factor is highly significant, much affected by the slope increase rather than the rainfall intensity.

A research on the performance of retrofit anchors was conducted using adhesives for rehabilitation. From the pull-out tests of the chemical anchors, the effect of the hole diameter, spacer, temperature, moisture, embedment depth, and aging time were investigated. The spacer did not directly increased the pull-out load hilt increased post-yielding resistance therefore the ductility of the retrofit anchors. When the hole was cleaned and dried after the immersion, the pull-out load was greatly increased compared to the wet hole. A design equation was unposed depending on the embedment depth of the anchor bolt.

Chip breaking is important in lathe work for maintaining good surface of the products and safety of operator. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of chip breaking and chip shape resulted from the carbide inserts with grooved type and obstruction type chip breaker. Experiments have been performed under the following cutting conditions, (1) constant cutting speed with variable depth of cut and feed rate, (2) constant depth of cut with variable cutting speed and feed rate. Also, the flying distance of chip and it's distribution have been investigated. As a results, good performance of chip breaking can be obtained for small radius of curvature and land width of grooved type chip breaker. And the thickness of chip increase with the increase of feed rate and decrease of cutting speed, and the chip breaking becomes easier with the increase of chip thickness due to the large deformation rate. Obstraction type chip breaker shows better performance of surface roughness than the grooved type. The flying distance of the chips over 90% are less than 1 meter, and the distance decreases as the feed rate decreases.

The article presents a systematic approach to design of marine navigation channels parameters resulting from manoeuvring and operational safety. Relations between the parameters of waterway system elements and the conditions of safe ship operation have been determined and the objective function of waterway parameters' optimization problems has been minimized with respect to variables of construction and operation costs. These costs have been functionally associated to variables of channel width at the bottom and fairway depth. The method of fairway's width computation at specified safe depth at the preliminary and detailed stages of waterway design has been proposed. The results of this method application have been illustrated with two examples: 1. The modernization of Szczecin-Swinoujscie fairway aimed at accepting vessels of 60,000 DWT capacity. 2. Construction of an approach channel leading to a newly built container terminal in Swinoujscie harbour (Poland), handling ocean-going container ships of 20,000 TEU capacity.

Ground potential rise is a vital part of personal safety, this paper presents the ground potential rise distribution induced by a ground rod. The experiments were conducted with the AC square wave currents according to the buried depth of ground rod. The ground potential is significantly varied in the vicinity of ground rod and the ground potential distribution is flat and few with increasing the buried depth of ground rod.

To investigate the influence of different burial conditions on the seepage characteristics of loose sandstone in the leaching mining of sandstone uranium ore, this study applied different ground pressures and water pressures to rock samples at different burial depths to alter the rock's seepage characteristics. The permeability, pore distribution, and particle distribution characteristic parameters were determined, and the results showed that at the same burial depth, ground pressure had a greater effect on the reduction in permeability than water pressure. The patterns and mechanisms are as follows: under the influence of ground pressure, increasing the burial depth compresses the pores in the rock samples, decreases the proportion of effective permeable pores, and causes particle fragmentation, which blocks pore channels, resulting in a decrease in permeability. Under the influence of water pressure, increasing the burial depth expands the pores but also causes hard clay particles to decompose and block pore channels. As the burial depth increases, the particles eventually decompose completely, and the permeability initially decreases and then increases. In this experiment, the relationships between permeability and the proportion of pores larger than 0.15 ㎛ and the proportion of particles smaller than 59 ㎛ were found to be the most significant.

In this study, the behavior of rock pillar in the diverging area of road tunnel was assessed by using a three dimensional numerical analysis. Based on parameters affecting the behavior of rock pillar, different safety factors according to pillar width, depth and rock conditions were evaluated. It turned out that as the pillar width increases, the change curve of safety factors in accordance with depth and rock conditions shows more of the nonlinear behavior. By the assessment of the minimum safety factor, a safety factor chart on the behavior of rock pillar in the diverging area of road tunnel was suggested.

Taekwondo has developed into a global sport that sports 80 million people from 208 countries around the world. Korea is the mother country of Taekwondo, and there are many international Taekwondo events in Korea. As important as the image of Taekwondo contents, it will be operation plan and management for event facilities. In particular, safety management for participants is more important than anything else. In case of Taekwondo where there are many national events, there are many foreign visitors, so safety management in facilities and running programs needs to be important. In this study, we conducted in - depth interviews with experts with a career in Taekwondo events. Based on the in - depth interviews, we analyzed the safety management problems of the international Taekwondo events and suggested improvement directions to overcome them. Based on the results of these researches, the improvement direction of Taekwondo event safety management proposed in the first category is a demand for improving safety and injury related system construction. The second category, the safety improvement of visitors, is to secure professional manpower and secure budgets. Also, what is important in the third category, facility safety area, is the proposal to introduce facility safety certification system.

In the event of toxic gas accidents, soil deposition is a main factor which has an effect on extent of the damage. In this study, it presents the influence of soil deposition properties according to the change of soil depth and the organic matter contents in soil. In this experimentation, the soil deposition device developed in Air Force Research Laboratory in USA is recreated. The tested samples of mixing soil have each value of the organic matter contents. After a variety of synthetic soil were exposed to constant Cl2 concentration, the chlorinity is measured using an anion exchange chromatography(ICS-1100) to quantify the mount of deposition. As the results, the increase of soil depth causes an decreased soil deposition and the increase of exposure time causes an increased soil deposition in surface. Also, the increase of soil deposition mainly depended on the organic matter contents in surface.
