Abstract

In this study, the chemical fluid considered is sodium chloride sloutions. The concentrations for the sodium chloride solutions are varied from 0 to 20%. A series of lab oratory triaxial tests are performed on the cylindrical specimens of sand bentonite mixture with different (5, 10, 15%) sodium chloride content solutions. Deformation(elastic modulus, E) and strength (cohesion, c', and angle of friction, f') parameters are obtained from the triaxial tests and they are expressed as functions of conf'ming pressure and sodium chloride solution concentrations. The stress-strain-strength behavior based on the above strength parameters is introduced to the finite element method with a residual flow procedure (RFP). By integrating a slope stability (limit equilibrium) procedure in the finite element method, factors of safety with time are computed.

이 연구에서 사용된 화학제는 NaCl이다. NaCl과 모래-벤토나이트 혼합물이 각기 다른 혼합률로 배합되어 삼축 압축 시험을 하였다(5, 10, 15%). 탄성계수와 점착력, 그리고 내부 마찰각이 구속 응력과 NaCl의 함수로 얻었다. 이로부터 구한 강도 정수를 근거로 하여 응력-변형률-강도의 거동 특성을 화학액의 농도함수로 residual flow procedure(REP)에 연결하였다. RFP와 함께 유한요소법을 이용한 사면안정 해석 프로그램을 개발하여 안전율을 구하였으며 강도정수를 화학용액의 농도함수로 요소방정식에 넣어구한 안전율을 비교하였다. 이로써 화학용액이 흙제방의 안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.
