  • Site response analyses were performed based on equivalent linear technique using shear wave velocity profiles of 162 sites collected around the Korean peninsula. The site characteristics, particularly the shear wave velocities and the depth to the bedrock, are compared to those in the western United States. The results show that the site-response coefficients based on the mean shear velocity of the top 30m ($V_{S30}$) suggested in the current code underestimates the motion in short-period ranges and overestimates the motion in mid-period ranges. The current Korean code based on UBC is required to be modified considering site characteristics in Korea for the reliable estimation of site amplification. From the results of numerical estimations, new regression curves were derived between site coefficients ($F_{a}\;and\;F_{v}$) and the fundamental site periods, and site coefficients were grouped based on site periods with reasonable standard deviations compared to site classification based on $V_{S30}$. Finally, new site classification system and modification of design response spectra are recommended considering geotechnical characteristics in Korea.

  • The investigation of ecological characteristics of Lycoris radiata was carried out in flooding (site I), half flooding (site II) and dry stands (site III). Seasonal change of air temperature showed similar patterns and that of light intensity showed quite difference among three L. radiata stands. Seasonal change of soil water content showed a great difference among three L. radiata stands. The study area was dominated by Pinus densiflora, P. thunbergii and L. radiata communities. The number of bulb in 1. radiata increased in September with bulb formation and decreased in January. Bulb weight in L. radiata was different from each site. The numbers of blossom were 23, 13 and 9, respectively in site I, II and III. The length of wreath were 17.0, 13.0 and 11.0cm, respectively, the length of stamen were 7.0, 6.4 and 6.5 cm, respectively and the length of stalk were 60.0, 45.0 and 42.0 cm, respectively in site I, II and III. The leaf of L. radiata developed rapidly in site I with sufficient water supply and lower light intensity, the number and the length of rootlets increased considerably in site III with insufficient water supply and higher light intensity, and the ecological characteristics in site II was intermediate between site I and site III. There was no great difference between the numbers of rootlets in site I and site II, which were due to sufficient water supply in two stands.

Also the current Korean code based on UBC is required to be modified considering site characteristics in Korea for the reliable estimation of site amplification. From the results of numerical estimations, new regression curves were derived between site coefficients ($F_a$ and $F_v$) and the fundamental site periods, and site coefficients were grouped based on site periods in the regions of shallow bedrock. The standard deviations of the proposed method was reasonable compared to site classification based on $V_{S30}$. Finally, new site classification system is recommended based on site periods for regions of shallow bedrock depth in Korea.

  • 관측된 지반진동은 지진원, 지각감쇠 및 지반의 증폭특성 등 3가지 주요 인자로 구성되어 있고 특히 지반증폭 특성은 지진원 및 감쇠특성을 평가할 때 필요하다. 또한 지진재해도를 분석하기 위해 지반의 증폭 특성에 정보가 내진공학 뿐만 아니라 암반공학적 특성 분석에서 필수적이다. 지반의 증폭특성 분석을 위해 분석대상 관측소와 기준 관측소 지반진동의 수평/수직 비를 이용하는 방법을 적용하였다. 기존의 기준관측소의 수직성분 방법에 더하여 새로이 기준관측소의 수평성분 방법을 새로이 시도하였다. 본 연구는 예당저수지 인근에 설치한 4개의 관측소에서 관측된 6개의 가속도 지반진동을 이용하여 각 지반진동의 S파, Coda파 및 배경잡음 각각을 분석한 지반증폭 특성을 상호 비교하였다. 4개 관측소 공통적으로 S파와 Coda파를 이용한 결과는 상호 유사한 지반증폭 특성을 보였다. 다만 배경잡음은 다른 2개 지진 에너지와 비교할 때 전혀 다른 지반증폭 특성을 보였고 이는 배경잡음의 발생 원인이 관측소 마다 서로 다르기 때문으로 입증되었다. 4개 각각의 지진 관측소마다 저주파수 및 고주파수 증폭특성과 관측소 고유의 우월주파수가 서로 상이하여 관측소 고유의 증폭특성을 보여주었다. 또한 본 연구의 결과와 다른 방법의 결과와 비교하면 지반의 동적특성 및 지반분류 연구에 많은 정보를 제시할 수 있다.

  • 역사 지진으로 인해 성칩이 붕괴되었던 국내 두 읍성 지역에 대한 국부적 부지 효과를 평가하기 위하여, 현장 시추 조사 및 탄성파 시험을 통해 전단파속도($V_s$) 주상을 포함한 지반 특성을 결정하고 이를 토대로 등가 선형 기법의 부지 응답 해석을 수행하였다. 대상 부지는 심도 30m까지의 평균 전단파속도가 $500{\sim}850m/s$의 분포를 보임에 따라 지반 분류C와 B로 구분되었고, 부지 고유주기는 성벽과 성첩의 고유주기를 포함하는 범위인 $0.06{\sim}0.16$초의 단주기 분포를 보였다. 대상 영역에서의 부지 응답 해석 결과, 지반 분류 B와는 달리 대부분의 부지 조건인 지반 분류 C의 경우 부지 고유 지진 응답 특성인 단주기에서의 큰 증폭으로 인해, 국내 내진 설계 기준의 단주기($0.1{\sim}0.5$초) 증폭계수 $F_a$와 중장주기 ($0.4{\sim}2.0$초) 증폭계수 $F_v$는 각각 지반 운동을 단주기 영역에서는 과소평가하고 중장주기 영역에서는 과대평가함을 확인하였다. 이러한 부지 고유 응답 특성은 단주기 고유 응답을 보이는 성벽 구조물이 지진 발생 시 공진이 발생할 가능성이 높음을 의미하며, 그에 따라 역사 지진 피해 사례인 성첩 붕괴의 지배적인 영향 인자로서 작용했을 것으로 판단된다.

  • In order to elucidate the mechanisms affecting plant distributions in the reclaimed dredging area in the Gwangyang steelworks, in the Gwangyang Bay, Korea, we examined soil characteristics and plant distributions in four study sites and a control site in the study area. Desalination occurring along a gradient with increasing elevation, resulting in decrease of soil pH, EC, P, K, Cl, Ca, Mg, and salt and an increase in soil T-N, silt, clay contents. From site 1 (the lowest-elevation site) to site 5 (the highest-elevation site), halophytes decreased in abundance and nonhalophytes increased. The dominant species in each site were: Phragmites communis, Limonium tetragonum, and 12 additional species at site 1, Carex pumila, Suaeda japonica, and 15 additional species at site 2, Spergularia marina, Scirpus planiculmis, and 22 additional species at site 3, Miscantus sinensis, Lespedeza bicolor, and 26 additional species at site 4 and Pinus thunberii, Rhododendron mucronulatum, and 39 additional species at site 5, which resembled a naturally-occurring P. thinbergii community. Cluster analysis of the vegetation data matrix grouped the 35 plots into 5 major groups, and cluster analysis using the soil environment data matrix revealed 4 major groups. CCA of the floristic and environmental data matrix showed a positive relationship of SAR, EC, Na, Cl, and Ca, which are related to salt, in the $1^{st}$ axis and $2^{nd}$ axis, but negative relationships for altitude, organic contents, silt, and clay contents. Notably, plant species in the reclaimed dredging area that were separated along the $1^{st}$ axis showed strong relationships with factors that related to salt. Long-term exposure to natural rainfall in the reclaimed dredging area changed the soil characteristics, such as salinity. This change in soil characteristics might alter the SAR, which affects plant survival strategies in a given habitat. These results strongly indicated that factors related to salt and elevation play important roles in determining the overall plant distribution in the reclaimed dredging area.

  • The pollution characteristics of water quality analysis and the heavy metal analysis of river sediment in the Western Nakdong river, and then a commercial tile using the polluted sediment was produced. The analytical results of the riverbed structure and the depth distribution in the Western Nakdong river were that Macdo Stream(site 2) was the deepest(13 ft). The analytical result of water quality showed that BOD was the highest in the Hogei Stream(site 6); COD, Syanduengchi Island(site 1);SS, Macdo Stream(site 2);T-N, Suanduengchi Island(site 1);T-P, Macdo Stream(site 2). Therefore the deeper the site was the higher the pollution concentration was. The result of heavy metal analysis of the river sediment was that Pb and Cr were the highest in Kangdong Bridge(site 9); Cd, Macdo Stream(site 2), so the deeper the site was the higher the pollution concentration was. The production of tile using the mixure of the polluted sediment and the raw material was successful, so the reuse of polluted sediment was possible.

  • To estimate the local site effects at two town fortress areas where stone parapets were collapsed during historical earthquakes, site characteristics were evaluated using borehole drillings and seismic tests and equivalent-linear site response analyses were conducted based on the shear wave velocity (Vs) profiles determined from site investigations. The study sites are categorized as site classes C and B according to the mean Vs to 30 m ranging from 500 to 850 m/s, and their site periods are distributed in short period range of 0.06 to 0.16 sec. For site class C in the study areas, the short-period (0.1-0.5 sec) and mid-period (0.4-2.0 sec) site coefficients, $F_{\alpha}$ and $F_\nu$ specified in the Korean seismic design guide, underestimate the ground motion in short-period band and overestimate the ground motion in mid-period band, respectively, due to the characteristics showing high amplification in short period range, which can result in the collapse of stone parapets having the short natural period.
