The applicability and accuracy of Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model on the estimation of soil loss at impacted area of shooting range was tested to further the understanding of soil erosion at shooting ranges by using RUSLE. At a shooting range located in northern Kyunggi, the amount of soil loss was estimated by RUSLE model and compared with that estimated by Global Positioning System-Total Station survey. As results, the annual soil loss at a study site (202 m long by 79 m wide) was estimated to be 2,915 ton/ha/year by RUSLE and 3,058 ton/ha/year by GPS-TS survey, respectively. The error between two different estimations was less than 5%, however, information on site conditions should be collected more to adjust model coefficients accurately. At the study shooting range, sediments generated by rainfall was transported from the top to near the bottom of the sloping face through sheet erosion as well as rill erosion, forming a gully along the direction of the storm water flow. Coarser fractions of the sediments were redeposited in the limited area along the channel. Distribution characteristics of explosive compounds in soil before and after summer monsoon rainfall in the study area were compared with the erosion patterns. Soil sampling and analyses results showed that the dispersion of explosive compounds in surface soil was consistent with the characteristics of soil erosion and redeposition pattern of sediment movements after rainfalls.

136 cut slopes which extends from Namyangju to Chunchon city along the 46th national highway were investigated to analyze the influence factors affecting slope instability. Geologic and geotechnical conditions were examined and the detailed investigation were carried out for fifty five failed slopes. failure mode (wedge failure, planar failure, circular failure, sheet eroison and rock falls) are examined with respect to slope inclination, rock type, weathering grade and discontinuity patterns. It is suggested that the failure modes and their dimensions have relations to the morphology and geologic conditions of the slopes. Wedge failure has highest is the most frequent failure mode and falls, sheet erosions, planar failures and circular in descending order of failure percentage. Wedge failure is most dominant failure type over all lithology except quartzite formation. In slopes of well foliated and banded gneiss, failure ratio of wedge is up to 50% ca. Failure ratio(number of rock fall/number of total failure) of rock fall increases with increase fo slope inclinations and decrease of weathering grade. Dimension analyses of failed slopes shows wedge and circular failure has higher value of D/L and D/H than planar failure and sheet erosion.

In this study, a large laboratory model experiment was conducted with the aim of developing an embankment reinforcement method to prevent overtopping, which is the main cause for the failure of agricultural reservoirs. The model experiment was carried out with concrete and asphalt as a permanent reinforcement method and with geomembrane as the emergency method at a deteriorated homogeneous reservoir. Under the non-reinforced conditions, the pattern of the failure appeared in several scour directions from the downstream slope as the overtopping began, and the width and depth of the erosion were magnified as it gradually moved to the dam crest. Under the conditions reinforced with asphalt and concrete, the overtopping was stabilized. In the case of the concrete reinforcement, it was found that the slope of the riprap boundary exhibited downward erosion by the current; thus, it was necessary to construct an extension up to the riprap joint of the upstream and downstream sides to prevent the expansion of the failure. Under the conditions reinforced with the geomembrane sheet, the overtopping was stabilized, and no seepage was found that required the emergency reinforcement method. Asphalt, concrete, and geomembrane sheet reinforcements have been shown to be capable of delaying failure for about 1 hour and 40 minutes compared to the non-reinforcement conditions. The reinforcement method is considered to be a very effective method to prevent disasters during overtopping. The pore water pressure can be used as useful data to predict the risk of failure at an embankment.

토양유실량을 산정하기 위한 모델로 Universsal Soil Loss Equation(USLE)가 전 세계적으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있다. USLE 모형은 농경지에서 면상침식(Sheet erosion)과 세류침식(Rill erosion)을 모의할 수 있는 시험포단위 모형(Field-scale)으로 농경지에서 유실된 토양이 하류 하천으로 얼마나 흘러 들어가 하류 수계의 탁수발생과 이에 따른 수질악화에 얼마나 기여하는지, 즉, 유역단위의 토양유실량을 평가하는데 이용될 수 없다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 Sediment Assessment Tool for Effective Erosion Control (SATEEC) ArcView 시스템이 개발되어 사용되고 있다. SATEEC ArcView 시스템은 USLE모형의 입력자료와 DEM만으로 유역면적에 따른 유달률을 산정하여 유역에서 유실된 토양이 얼마만큼 하류로 유달되는지를 모의할 수 있으며, 유역 경사도에 의한 유달률도 산정할 수 있어 지형적인 특성을 좀 더 다양하게 분석 할 수 있게 개발 되었다. 그러나 ArcView는 출시한지 오래되어 사용자가 많지 않고, 프로그램상의 오류가 많고, 대용량의 데이터 처리가 가능한 64비트 운영체제에서는 설치가 불가능한 단점이 있다. 또한, ArcView의 프로그래밍 언어인 Avenue는 클래스를 정의한다거나 상속을 한다거나 하는 문법을 제공하지 않기 때문에 객체지향 언어로 보기에는 부족하다고 할 수 있다. 또한, 최근의 ArcGIS 기반의 많은 모델들이 서로 연계하여 사용하고 있으나, Avenue는 기타 다른 프로그래밍 언어와 연계하여 사용하기가 쉽지 않은 단점이 있다. 그러나 최근 ArcGIS 버전들의 프로그래밍 언어인 Python은 간결하고 확장성이 좋으며, 다른 언어와의 연계가 쉽다. 또한, ArcGIS 10.x버전부터 제공되는 arcpy 모듈은 사용자와의 접근성이 매우 향상되었다. 따라서 SATEEC ArcView 버전을 ArcGIS 10.1 기반의 Python 으로 재개발하여 기존의 불편한 접근성과 대용량 데이터의 처리가 불가능했던 부분을 개선하였다.

Duplex stainless steels with nearly equal fraction of the ferrite(${\alpha}$) phase and austenite(${\gamma}$) phase have been increasingly used for various applications such as power plants, desalination facilities due to their high resistance to corrosion, good weldability, and excellent mechanical properties. Hyper duplex stainless steel (HDSS) is defined as the future duplex stainless steel with a pitting resistance equivalent (PRE=wt.%Cr+3.3(wt.%Mo+0.5wt.%W)+30wt.%N) of above 50. However, when HDSS is welded with gas tungsten arc (GTA), incorporation of nitrogen in the Ar shielding gas are very important because the volume fraction of ${\alpha}$-phase and ${\gamma}$-phase is changed and harmful secondary phases can be formed in the welded zone. In other words, the balance of corrosion resistance between two phases and reduction of $Cr_2N$ are the key points of this study. The primary results of this study are as follows. The addition of $N_2$ to the Ar shielding gas provides phase balance under weld-cooling conditions and increases the transformation temperature of the ${\alpha}$-phase to ${\gamma}$-phase, increasing the fraction of ${\gamma}$-phase as well as decreasing the precipitation of $Cr_2N$. In the anodic polarization test, the addition of nitrogen gas in the Ar shielding gas improved values of the electrochemical parameters, compared to the Pure Ar. Also, in the erosion-corrosion test, the HDSS welded with shielding gas containing $N_2$ decreased the weight loss, compared to HDSS welded with the Ar pure gas. This result showed the resistance of erosion-corrosion was increased due to increasing the fraction of ${\gamma}$-phase and the stability of passive film according to the addition $N_2$ gas to the Ar shielding gas. As a result, the addition of nitrogen gas to the shielding gas improved the resistance of erosion-corrosion.

Spot welding is one of the important welding processes for the construction of thin metal sheet. Because of low investment cost, alternating welding current is widely applied for power source. Direct current type could be, however, recommened for high quality weldment. In this study, the effect of welding current type on the weldability and the electrode life in spot welding of aluminium alloy were investigated. Various welding tests were done by using three phase direct and alternating welding current, respectively. In spite of high variation of welding force, weld quality and electrode life with alternating welding current were shown better results than those with direct current for 2mm thick alumininum alloy sheets. This was due to excessive erosion of the positive electrode in direct welding current compared with the negative one. On the contrary to 2mm sheets, the welding parameters of alternating current for 1mm sheets must be carefully selected.

In order to design a propeller with high efficiency and excellent cavitation performance, theoretical and experimental studies on the cavitation and noise characteristics according to the blade section shape are essential. In general, sheet cavitation, bubble cavitation, and cloud cavitation are the main causes of hull vibration and propeller surface erosion. However vortex cavitation, which has the greatest influence on the noise level because the fastest CIS in ship propeller, has been researched for a long time and studies have been conducted recently to control it. In this experiment, the development process of cavitation was measured by using three dimensional wings with two different wing section and wing tip shapes, and the noise level at that time was evaluated. In addition, we evaluated the relationship between cavitation inception and hydrodynamic force using three component load cell and we measured the velocity field of wing wake using LDV.

The effects that the geo-textile mulching sheet has influenced on the runoff-water, suspended solid, sediment yield and vegetation growth are as follows in artificial slope 1. The flora of plots was composed 12 families, 21 genera, 20 species, 2 varieties, total 22 taxa. 2. The geo-textile mulching sheet is effective on increasing of introduced vegetation population, number of species and vegetation coverage, but just only with the mulching sheet it shows limit of was somewhat difficult to expect the increase of the existence ratio. 3. The amount of runoff-water increased in proportion to rainfall and at mulched plots were about 1/15.5 as decreased as that of un-mulched plots. 4. The amount of suspended sediment increased in proportion to rainfall and at mulched plots were about 1/47 as decreased as that of un-mulched plots. 5. Also, the amount of sediment yield increased in proportion to rainfall and at mulched plots were about 1/151 as decreased as that of un-mulched plots. so, multi-function- filter is very effective on prevention of soil erosion.
