해양 매립 공사는 해저의 해성점토를 해수와 함께 준설하여 매립지로 이동시켜 매립지를 형성시키는 공사이다. 매립지가 형성되는 과정에서 준설토는 침강-퇴적-압밀 과정이 진행되며 이 과정에서 압밀과정은 소요되는 시간과 침하량이 크기 때문에 매립지를 계획하는 해양 매립 공사에서 매우 중요한 결정인자로 사용하게 된다. 준설토의 침하량과 소요되는 시간을 예측하기 위한 방법으로 국내에선 Yano가 제안한 Column 실험이 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 Yano의 Column 실험은 준설토의 침강압밀특성을 확인하기 위해 장시간이 필요한 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 장시간이 소요되는 Column 실험의 단점을 보완해 단시간에 준설토의 침강압밀특성을 확인하기 위한 방법으로 원심모형실험을 활용하였다. 그 결과 효율적으로 준설토의 침강압밀특성을 확인하기 위해 원심모형실험을 활용할 수 있는 것으로 사료된다.

현장 지반에는 점토 또는 모래만 존재하기 보다는 다양한 크기의 흙이 서로 섞여 존재하는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같이 모래가 포함된 점토에서 함수비 증가에 따른 흙의 유동 특성을 예측하기 위해 흙기둥 붕괴실험과 이를 위해 개발한 입자법으로 대변형 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 먼저 카올리나이트에 모래 함유량을 0, 10, 25, 그리고 50%까지 증가시키면서 직경 7cm, 높이 13cm의 흙기둥 붕괴실험을 실시하였으며, 시간에 따른 흙기둥의 형상 변화를 관찰하였다. 모래 함유량이 다른 각각의 흙기둥에 함수비를 40, 60, 그리고 80%로 증가시키면서 총 12 종류의 흙기둥 붕괴실험을 실시하였으며, 본 연구에서 개발한 입자법으로 시간에 따른 흙기둥의 변화를 시뮬레이션하였다. 점토의 함수비와 모래 함유량에 따른 비배수전단강도와 소성지수의 변화를 고려한 최대소성전단계수를 입자법의 점성항에 적용하여 토사 대변형을 시뮬레이션하였다. 실험 결과 모래 함유량이 동일한 경우 함수비가 증가할수록 변형이 크게 발생하였으며, 동일한 함수비라도 모래 함유량이 증가함에 따라 흙기둥의 변형은 크게 발생하였다. 최대 변형은 함수비 80%, 모래 함유량 50%인 흙기둥의 직경이 7cm에서 22cm로 3배 이상 발생하였으며, 이와 같은 흙기둥 실험에서 관찰된 토사의 대변형 거동 및 응력 변화를 개발한 입자법이 비교적 잘 예측할 수 있었다.

Column experiments were peformed to evaluate the efficiency of surfactant flushing for remediation of non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) in the soil under controlled conditions. In column experiment less than 0.1 % of the original mass of tetrachloroethylene (PCE), remained in the column after 15 pore volumes of 1% sorbitan monooleate solution were passed through columns. To determine the influence of soil parameters that may affect the remediation process, column tests were repeated with different values of grain size, application rate, surfactant type, surfactant concentration, and solution viscosity (polymer mixed with surfactant). Experimental works suggest that surfactant flushing has a great potential to rapidly remove mass from NAPL in the soil.

This paper presents an experimental investigation about visualization of bulging development of geosynthetic-encased stone column (GESC) based on the digital image correlation (DIC) technique and transparent soil. Visual model tests on GESC and ordinary stone column (OSC) were carried out. In order to delete the warping effect resulting from transparent soil and experiment setup, a modification for experiment results was performed. The bulging development process of the GESC and the displacement field of the surrounding soil were measured. By comparing with the existing experimental and theoretical results, it demonstrates that the model test system developed for studying the continuous bulging development of GESC is suitable. The current test results show that the bulging depth of GESC ranges from 1.05 to 1.40 times the diameter of GESC. The influence depth of GESC bulging on surrounding soil displacement is 0~3 the times diameter of GESC.

Soil Aquifer Treatment (SAT) is a technique in which secondary- or tertiary-treated wastewater is infiltrated through unsaturated soil and stored in the saturated zone. In SAT, contaminants are removed by physical and biochemical reactions taking place in soils. In this study, a numerical model was developed to predict changes in water quality during SAT operations. The contaminant species considered in the model were ammonium, nitrate, dissolved organic carbon, and dissolved oxygen. The model was calibrated against experimental data obtained from one dimensional soil column tests conducted for 84 days. The calibrated model will be used to find out optimum conditions for the pilot- and regional-scale SAT operations to be scheduled for the next phase of this project.

A computationally efficient algorithm to analyze a group pile behavior is proposed by consideration of both soil-pile and pile-cap interactions. Using toad transfer method the nonlinear characteristics of the soil-pile interaction for a single pile is modeled by piecewise linear soil springs (p-y, t-z, and q-z curves). Beam-column method, one of the most practical approaches, is used for numerical modeling of the soil-pile system. In addition to the group effect resulting from the soil-pile-soil interaction, for a more realistic analysis it is essential to consider the effect of pile-cap interaction including geometric configuration of the piles in a group and conectivity conditions between piles and the cap. This paper mainly focuses on the pile-cap interaction and the development of a rational numerical procedure of its incorporation with the beam-column method.

An experimental study is carried out to evaluate the performance of Lime mortar-Well graded Soil (Lime-WS) columns for the improvement of soft soils. Tests are conducted on a column of 100 mm diameter and 600 mm length surrounded by soft soil in different area ratios. Experiments are performed either with the entire area loading to evaluate the load - settlement behavior of treated grounds and only a column area loading to find the limiting axial stress of the column. A series of tests are carried out in soaking condition to investigate the influence of moisture content on the load - settlement behavior of specimens. In order to compare the behavior of Lime-WS columns with Conventional Stone (CS) columns as well as Geogrid Encased Stone (GES) columns, the behavior of these columns have been also considered in the present study. Remarkable improvement in the behavior of soft soil is observed due to the installation of Lime-WS columns and the performance of these columns is significantly enhanced by increasing the area ratio. The results show that CS columns are not suitable as a soil improvement technique for extremely soft soils and should be enhanced by encasing the column or replaced by rigid stone columns.

흡착은 비소가 토양에 축적되는 주요 과정이다. 그러므로 토양에서 비소종의 흡착 및 탈착 특성을 이해하는 것은 비소종의 거동을 예측하고 토양으로부터 비소를 제거하는 적절한 정화방법을 수립하기 위해 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 칼럼을 이용하여 토양에서 As(III)와 As(V)의 흡착 및 탈착실험을 수행하였다. As(III)에 대한 실험은 환원환경에서, 그리고 As(V)에 대한 실험은 산화환경에서 실시했다. 실험이 진행되는 동안 대부분의 As(III)는 그 산화상태를 유지하였다. As(III)의 흡착 및 탈착속도는 As(V)보다 빨랐다. 칼럼실험에서 비소종의 흡착 및 탈착반응은 완전히 가역적은 아니었다. 또한 As(V)는 회분식실험에서보다 칼럼실험에서 더 빠르게 토양에 흡착되었다.

The electrokinetic apparatus for remediation of the soil contaminated with Cs$^{+}$was designed. After kaolin clay was compulsorily contaminated by Cs$^{+}$ solution, the remediation characteristics by electrokinetic method were analyzed. After remediation experiment, the pH of the cathode side of the soil column was increased to 12.7 due to the generation of OH in cathode reservoir, but no hydroxide cesium form in the cathode side. Effluent rate from the cathode almost was constant and cesium concentration of effluent decreased with time passage. The 49% of a total of Cs$^{+}$ in the column was decontaminated for 0.4 day, the 72% of a total of Cs$^{+}$ in the column was decontaminated for 0.8 day, the 83% of a total of Cs$^{+}$ in the column was decontaminated for 1.2 days, the 89% of a total of Cs$^{+}$ in the column was decontaminated for 1.6 days, and the 93% of a total of Cs$^{+}$ in the column was decontaminated for 2.1 day Meanwhile, the predicted values of residual concentration by the developed model were quite similar to those obtained from experiments.m experiments.

Deep soil mixing with cement and cement-lime mixtures has been widely used for decades to improve the strength of soils. In this study, small-scale laboratory model tests of polymer columns in soft clayey soil were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using various polymeric compounds as binders in deep soil mixing. Floating and end bearing polymer columns were used to examine the load-settlement relationship of improved soft clayey soils for various area replacement ratios. The results indicate that polymer columns show good promise for use in deep mixing applications.
