응력에 의한 밀도증가의 영향과 액상화 원심모형실험을 위한 모형지반성형법

The Influence of Stress-induced Densification and Centrifuge Model Preparation Method for Soil Liquefaction

  • 발행 : 2006.11.30

초록

균일한 모래지반을 이용한 원심모형실험에서는 지표면근처에서 액상화가 발생한 후에 점차적으로 깊은 곳으로 전파되는 경향을 보였다. 이와 같은 현상은 실내실험에서 상재하중효과를 고려했을 때 관찰되는 액상화현상과 상반되는 것처럼 보인다. 그러나, 응력증가에 따른 모형지반의 상대밀도증가가 구속압증가에 따른 액상화저항감소를 상쇄시킨다. 이와 같은 응력증가에 따른 상대밀도증가는 실제 원심모형실험에서 발생하고 있으나, 모형지반성형법에서는 고려되고 있지 않다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 원심모형실험에서 발생할 수 있는 상대밀도증가를 고려한 새로운 원심모형지반성형법을 제안하였다. 새로운 모형지반성형법은 액상화에 관한 $K_0$ 효과를 연구하는데 사용될 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 수치해석방법을 이용하여 그 실용성을 증명하였다.

Centrifuge tests have shown that a uniformly placed sand layer will first initiate liquefaction near the surface and that liquefaction will progress downward during shaking. This appears to be in conflict with the overburden stress effect on soil liquefaction (i.e., $K_0$ effect) observed in laboratory testing. This discrepancy can be explained by stress-induced densification at depth which overcomes the effect of confining stress on liquefaction resistance. Stress densification occurs in centrifuge model tests but its effect has generally not been considered when preparing or evaluating centrifuge models. A new centrifuge model preparation method is proposed by considering stress-induced densification upon spin-up. The proposed method can be used to explore $K_0$ effects. The method is supported in this study by numerical predictions.
