  • The purpose of this study is to make a design guideline in designing constructed wetland which can treat water quality both of point and nonpoint source water pollution. It focuses on structural aspects of two case studies of constructed wetland applying SSB(Sustainable Structured wetland Biotope) system in Korea. The constructed wetland of Lake Ju-am which was constructed in 2002 by Environmental Management Corporation, was designed by applying SSB system. It shows higher removal efficiency than expected - 56% of BOD removal efficiency, 60% of T-N removal, and 76% of T-P removal efficiency. In two cases, total wetland areal extents were calculated referred to treatment efficiency. The system is consist of micro-cell structures : inflow channel, forebay, multiple wetland cells and micro-pool. When designing constructed wetland appropriate in local area, the total organic system of vertical and horizontal structure : geology, hydrology, land use, and ecological surroundings of the sites should be considered totally.

  • This study was carried out unmanned aerial photography and terrestrial laser scanning to establish digital database on original wall of Gyejoksanseong fortress, and measured ground control points for continuity of the monitoring. It also performed precise examination with the naked eye, unmanned aerial photogrammetry, endoscopy, total station and handy measurement to examine the structural stability of the original walls. The ground control points were considered as a point where visual field can be secured, 3 points were selected around each of the south and north walls. For the right side of the south original wall, aerial photogrammetry was conducted using drones and a deviation analysis of 3-dimensional digital models was performed for short-term monitoring. As a result, the two original walls were almost matched in range within 5mm, and no difference indicating displacement of stones was found, except for partial deviation. Regular monitoring of the areas with structural deformation such as bulging, weak and fracture zone by precisely examining with the naked eye and using high-resolution photo data revealed no distinct change. The inner foundation observed through endoscopy found out that filling stones of the original walls were still remained, while most filling soil was lost. As a result of measuring the total station focusing around the points with structural deformation on the original walls, the maximum displacements of the north and south walls were somewhat high with 6.6mm and 3.8mm, respectively, while the final displacements were relatively stable at below 2.9mm and 1.4mm, respectively. Handy measurement also did not reveal clear structural deformation with displacements below 0.82mm at all points. Even though the results of displacement monitoring on the original walls are stable, it is hard to secure structural stability due to the characteristics of ramparts where sudden brittle fracture occurs. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct conservational scientific diagnosis, precise monitoring, and structural analysis based on the 3-dimensional figuration information obtained in this research.

  • In this study, a survey of structural geology and discontinuities were carried out on the space in a limestone mine where the construction of crushing facilities is in planning. The stability of the site was analyzed by rock mass classifications and numerical analysis. Through these analyses, it could be known that removal of pillars could make the stability problems in the mine and the supports for pillars must be considered.

  • This study includes structural analysis of the northern Pattani Basin, areal description of depositional facies, and their spatial relationships using 3-D seismic and well data. Well log data indicate that the representative depositional facies of the studied intervals are sandy, fluvial, channel-fill facies encased in shaly floodplain deposits. Seismic responses were predicted from a synthetic seismogram using a model of dominant depositional facies. Peak-to-trough amplitude and instantaneous frequency seismic attributes are used in depositional facies interpretation. Three Intervals A, B and C are interpreted on the successive stratal surfaces. The shallowest interval, A, is the Quaternary transgressive succession. Each stratal surface showed flow pattern variation of fluvial channel facies. Two transgressive cycles were identified in interval A. Interval B also indicated fluvial facies. Depositional facies architectures are described by interpreting seismic attributes on the successive stratal surfaces.

  • Recently, mega-float offshore structure is studied as one of the effective utilization of the ocean space. And mega-structure are now being considered for various applications such as floating airports, offshore cities and so on. This mega-float structure is relatively flexible compared with real floating structures like large ships. when we estimate dynamic responses of these structures in waves, the elastic deformation is important, because vertical dimension is small compared with horizontal. The analysis of the dynamic response as it receives regular wave is studied. The finite element method is used in the analysis of structural section of this model. And the analysis is carried out using the boundary element method in the fluid division. In order to know the characteristics of the dynamic response of the mega-float structures, effects of wavelength, water depth, and wave direction on dynamic response of the floating structure are studied by use of numerical calculation.

  • 지금까지 양산단층에 대한 운동학적 해석은 단지 지질분포 특성의 차이를 근거로 단순 우수주향이동으로 해석해왔다. 그러나 일반적으로 대규모 단층들은 단계적으로 서로 다른 운동체계에서 복합적인 발달과정을 거치면서 현재의 모습으로 보인다. 따라서 양산단층의 주변 지질구조와 운동학적 관계를 알아보기 위하여 양산단층 주변의 지질분포, 지질구조, 단층주변의 소단층들에 대한 특성을 분석하였다. 양산단층 주변 퇴적암의 층리면 자세는 양산단 층이 동일한 사건의 주향이동으로 형성된 단층예인의 특성이 아니라 서로 다른 응력축의 지배를 받았거나 서로 다른 크기의 운동을 받았음을 암시하고 있다. 또한 단층의 주향을 따라 단층대 폭의 변화를 살펴본 결과 크게 5개의 주기를 가지면서 변화되고 각각의 주기는 약 25-30 km 로 규칙적으로 나타난다. 또한 단층조선이 발달된 소단층의 분석결과들은 양산단층이 한번의 운동으로 발달한 것이 아니라 매우 복잡하고 다양한 사건들을 겪은 다중 변형의 산물임을 지시하고 있다.

  • 단층이동자료를 이용하여 지구조 사건을 분별하고 단층의 운동시기 및 한반도 주변지구조체계와 비교하여 양산단층의 진화과정을 해석하였다. 양산단층은 팔레오세 때 단층형성이 시작되었고 그 후 NW-SE 신장 사건에 의해 우수주향이동을 했다. 우수주향이동은 장구한 시간동안 진행되어 마이오세 초에 확장축이 바뀜에 따라 약간의 변화가 있지만 우수운동은 지속되었다. 마이오세 말에 양산단층은 좌수이동으로 변하여 운동하게 되며, 마이오세 말 혹은 플라이스토세 초에 와서 양산단층은 N-S 방향의 최대 수평압축응력을 받게 된다. 이후 플라이스토세를 전후해서 E-W 방향의 최대수평압축응력에 의해 양산단층은 다시 우수이동을 한다. 이와 같이 양산단층은 한번의 운동으로 발달된 단층이 아니라 서로 다른 응력체계 하에서 다중변형을 받아 현재의 모습으로 진화되었다고 판단된다.

  • In this paper several recent case studies of near surface geophysical applications in Greece are presented. The case studies are focused mostly in archeological site investigation, a field which is of high interest in Greece due to its reach historical heritage. The growing construction works in several parts of Greece as well as the increasing public interest in exploring and preserving cultural heritage lead to an increase of the application of nearsurface geophysics techniques as a preliminary investigation tool prior to engineering and archeological excavation works. Research efforts, presented in this work, are focused to extending and adapting standard nearsurface techniques in order to be made more effective for archaeological site investigation. The presented case studies involve not only standard field investigation procedures but also novel approaches such as the use of non-spike electrodes, efficient measuring and instrumentation strategies, unusual configurations and measurement environments. Overall it shown that efficient and state-of-art nearsurface geophysical techniques used for archaeological prospection purposes provide significant archaeological and structural information valuable for archeologists, engineers and conservation scientists.

  • A new simple relation for the estimation of modal correlation coefficients is presented. It is obtained from the decomposition of covariances of modal responses into background and resonant contributions, as it is commonly done for the variances. Thanks to appropriate assumptions, the modal correlation coefficients are estimated as weighted sums of two limit values, corresponding to the background and resonant responses respectively. The weighting coefficients are expressed as functions of the background-to-resonant ratios, which makes the proposed formulation convenient and easily accessible. The simplicity of the mathematical formulation facilitates the physical interpretation. It is for example proved that modal correlation coefficients can be non negligable even in case of well separated natural frequencies, which is sometimes unclear in the litterature. The new relation is mainly efficient in case of large finite element models. It is applied and validated on a finite element buffeting analysis of the Viaduct of Millau, the highest bridge deck ever built so far.
