목적: 안경용 초음파세척기를 이용하여 소프트콘택트렌즈의 단백질 침전물 세척 효과와 콘택트렌즈의 변수에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 방법: 단백질을 오염시킨 etafilcon A 재질의 소프트콘택트렌즈를 다목적용액에 넣어 안경용 초음파세척기와 콘택트렌즈용 초음파세척기를 사용하여 세척하고 대조군의 콘택트렌즈는 다목적용액으로 세척한 후 콘택트렌즈에 남아있는 단백질을 추출하여 정량하였고 콘택트렌즈의 전체지름, 베이스커브, 중심두께, 도수 및 함수율의 변화를 측정하였으며 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscope)으로 콘택트렌즈 표면을 관찰하였다. 결과: 단백질을 오염시킨 etafilcon A 재질의 콘택트렌즈는 다목적용액에 의해 6.08%의 세척효과를 보였고, 다목적용액에 콘택트렌즈를 넣고 초음파세척기로 세척한 경우에는 시간에 따라 안경용 초음파세척기에서는 23.73~33.92%, 콘택트렌즈용 초음파세척기에서는 0~12.99%의 세척효과를 보였다. 결론: 안경용 초음파세척기로 세척한 콘택트렌즈에서 변수 및 표면 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 안경원에서 사용하는 안경용 초음파세척기는 소프트콘택트렌즈의 단백질 침전물 제거에 효과적이고 변수 변화를 유발하지 않아 안경원에서 진단용 소프트렌즈의 세척에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This paper investigates the development of failure surfaces induced by an embankment on soft marine clay deposits and the characteristics of such surfaces through numerical simulations and its comparative study with monitoring results. It is well known that the factor of safety of embankment slopes is closely related to the vertical loading, including the height of the embankment. That is, an increase in the embankment height reduces the factor of safety. However, few studies have examined the relationship between the lateral movement of soft soil beneath the embankment and the factor of safety. In addition, no study has investigated the distribution of the pore pressure coefficient B value along the failure surface. This paper conducts a continuum analysis using finite difference methods to characterize the development of failure surfaces during embankment construction on soft marine clay deposits. The results of the continuum analysis for failure surfaces, stress, displacement, and the factor of safety can be used for the management of embankment construction. In failure mechanism, it has been validated that a large shear displacement causes change of stress and pore pressure along the failure surface. In addition, the pore pressure coefficient B value decreases along the failure surface as the embankment height increases. This means that the rate of change in stress is higher than that in pore pressure.

The evaluation of field degree of consolidation on soft clays has been an important problem in geotechnical areas. Monitoring either settlements or pore water pressures has been widely applied in the filed, but occasionally they have some problems. This study addresses the suggestion and application of another method for evaluating the degree of consolidation using shear wave velocities. A research site where soft clay layers were consolidated by surcharging loads was chosen. Laboratory tests were performed to determine the relation between shear wave velocity and effective stress. Field seismic tests were conducted several times during the consolidation of the clay layers. The tests results show that the shear wave velocity increased significantly as clays consolidated. The shear wave velocities at each field stress states were derived from the laboratory results and the degree of consolidation was evaluated by comparing the shear wave velocities obtained by laboratory and field seismic methods. In most stress states, the degree of consolidation evaluated using the shear wave velocity matched well with that obtained from field settlement record, showing the potential of applying the method using shear waves in the evaluation of field degree of consolidation on soft clay deposits.

With rapid economic growth, numerous deep excavation projects for high-rise buildings and subway transportation networks have been constructed in the past two decades. Deep excavations particularly in thick deposits of soft clay may cause excessive ground movements and thus result in potential damage to adjacent buildings and supporting utilities. Extensive plane strain finite element analyses considering small strain effect have been carried out to examine the wall deflections for excavations in soft clay deposits supported by diaphragm walls and bracings. The excavation geometrical parameters, soil strength and stiffness properties, soil unit weight, the strut stiffness and wall stiffness were varied to study the wall deflection behaviour. Based on these results, a multivariate adaptive regression splines model was developed for estimating the maximum wall deflection. Parametric analyses were also performed to investigate the influence of the various design variables on wall deflections.

The Pusan clays are soft and thick deposits and in some places, they reach even up to 50-70m. So, the pile foundations are inevitable in almost all cases. But they are significantly expansive when the length of the pile reaches about 70m. In this study, a comprehensive parametric study has been carried out in order to reduce the pile length and number of piles required in turn the cost of the foundation for particular building. A belled shaft pile has been optimized for a typical soil profile using the PLAXIS (FEM code). These results have shown a new direction of the pile foundation in Pusan, Korea. The results including the variation of contact pressures at the bottom of the bell, optimization of the angle of the bell and height of the bell in terms of the diameter of the shaft. And also, the design curves have been generated so that they can be directly used for design of belled shaft foundations. However, the structural strength criterion is being checked in the concerned laboratory.

Soft marine clay deposits pose several foundation problems. Generally, lime stabilization is used worldwide for solidifying of soft marine clay deposits. In this paper, a series of laboratory tests were conducted to verify clay-lime reaction. A clay was collected from Pusan, which was mixed with various quantities of quick lime and slaked lime. Various compounds produced by clay-lime reaction were identified by X-ray diffraction analysis. The physico-chemical properties of the clay were also investigated. Compounds such as calcium silicate hydrate (CSH), calcium aluminate hydrate (CAH), calcium aluminate (CA), hillebrandite, and gehlenite were identified. It is likely that such compounds were mainly produced by pozzolanic reaction. Based on the change of physico-chemical properties obtained by the reaction, the water content was considerably decreased when lime was added to the clay. In addition, unconfined strength was increased. In the other hand, quick lime was more effective than slaked lime in decreasing and increasing of the water content and unconfined strength, respectively. Fewer cracks were produced when the clay was mixed with quick lime. It is suggested that these beneficial changes produced by the mixing of the clay and lime depend on the properties of compounds obtained by chemical reaction.

연약지반 처리방법으로 압밀을 촉진시키고, 이로 인한 전단강도를 증진시키기 위하여 선행압밀하중공법과 병행된 배수공법이 널리 사용되어 오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 배수재가 설치된 연약지반의 압밀과정동안에 유발되는 간극비의 감소로 인한 압축성과 투수계수의 변화를 고려할 수 있는 축대칭 비선형 압밀이론을 제안하였다. 제안된 축대칭 비선형 압밀이론을 명백한(explicit) 유한차분법을 적용하여 해석용 프로그램(AXICON)을 개발하였으며 현장지반의 교란효과나 층으로 이루어진 지반을 해석할 수 있도록 보완하였다. 또한 현장지반의 단계적 시공절차를 고려하여 하중을 적용할 수 있도록 하였다. AXICON 해석결과를 기존의 Hansbo와 Barren의 해석적인 해와 비교 검토하였으며 현장지반에서 계측된 침하량과 과잉 간극수압의 자료와 비교하였다.

지반계수와 지반형상에 포함된 불확실성 뿐만아니라 근사적인 수치모델링에 기인하여 현장 연약지반에 대하여 예측된 거동과 실제로 계측된 거동은 매우 상이한 경우가 많다. 이러한 예측 결과를 개선하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 다음사항을 고려하였다. 계측치로부터 현장지반의 물성치를 보다 적절히 추정하기 위하여 최적화 기법이 적용되었으며, 3차원 거동효과를 효과적으로 고려하기 위하여 등가의 모델이 적용되었다. 지반의 압밀과정에 영향을 주는 수정 Carnflay모델의 지반계수값을 현장에서 계측된 침하량과 간극수압을 바탕으로 BFGS기법을 적용하여 최적화하였으며, 최적화 기법은 일반적인 압밀 해석 프로그램인 SPINED에 적용되었다. 제안된 프로그램을 사용하여 연약지반의 시간의존적인 압밀거동을 적절히 예측할 수 있다.

배수재가 설치된 연약지반의 현장거동은 3차원적인 특성을 나타낸다. 그러므로 보다 효율적인 2차원 평면변형률 수치모델을 이용하여 적절하게 해석하기 위해서는 현장지반의 3차원적인 흐름특성을 평면변형률 모델의 층류흐름으로 전환할 필요성이 있다. 본 논문에서는 배수재가 설치된 연약지반의 3차원적인 거동특성을 고려하기 위하여 등가의 효과적인 모델방법이 유한요소법에 적용되었다. 2차원 등가모델은 등가투수계수와 배수재의 강성토를 고려한 등가폭을 가진다. 제안된 등가모델을 검증하기 위하여 ABAQUS 프로그램을 이용한 3차원 압밀해석을 수행하였으며, 3차원 해석결과와 2차원 해석결과를 비교하였다. 제안된 등가모델을 적용한 2차원 평면변형률 수치해석방법은 현장지반의 3차원적인 거동특성을 비교적 정확히 예측할 수 있다.
