Abstract

Applicabilities of two numerical methods, the 2-dimensional and the 3-dimensional method, are evaluated to inverse test results obtained from the underwater SASW(Spectral -Analysis-of-Surface-Waves) method. As a result of this study, it has been found that the 2-dimensional method can supposed to be applicable for the cases where stiffness of soil layer increases gradually with depth, and the stiffness is relatively low. For the other cases, however, it has been concluded that the 3-dimensional method needs to be applied to determine realistic theoretical dispersion curves. An example is also shown that in situ soil profile underwater is estimated from experimental dispersion curves using the 3-dimensional method. As a results, it can be concluded that the underwater SASW method can be effectively applied to explore the underwater soil condition.

수중 SASW 실험에서 얻은 표면파의 실험분산곡선으로부터 지반의 강성을 추정하기 위한 역해석 과정에서 적용할 수 있는 파동해석기법인 로드해석법(2차원 해석법)과 변위해석법(3차원 해석법)의 적용성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 지반의 강성이 깊이에 따라 점진적으로 증가하고 지반 강성이 비교적 낮아 그 압축파 속도가 물의 압축파 속도보다 느린 경우에 대해서는 고유치 해석법을 적용할 수 있었다. 그러나 지반의 강성이 크거나 깊이에 따른 지반강설의 변화가 역전되는 경우에는 고차모트의 영향이나 고유치가 복소수가 되는 등의 문제가 발생하게 되므로 고유치 해석법으로 적절한 이론분산곡선을 얻을 수 없는 경우가 많고, 이 경우에는 변위해석법을 적용하여야 한다는 결론을 얻었다. 한편 수중 SASW 현장실험으로부터 얻은 결과를 제안된 변위해석법을 이용하여 분석한 결과 지반의 강성주상을 적절하게 추정한 수 있어 수중 SASW 실험의 현장 적용성을 확인할 수 있었다.
