Abstract

In this study TBM disc cutter prediction models including Gehring, CSM and NTNU models were investigated and the characteristics of the models were examined. The influence of penetration, uniaxial compressive strength and abrasiveness index on the models was analyzed. The life of disc cutter linearly increases with penetration per revolution and decreases with increasing uniaxial compressive strength of rocks. As the abrasiveness index, CAI, increases, the life of disc cutter in Gehring and CSM model decreases. On the contrary, the life of disc cutter life in NTNU model decreases with increasing CLI. Also, comparisons of predicted disc life were made between models using actual job site data.

본 연구에서는 Gehring, CSM, NTNU 모델을 이용한 디스크 커터 수명 예측 방법과 각 모델이 가지는 특징을 살펴보았다. 디스크 커터 수명에 크게 영향을 주는 요소인 관입깊이, 암석의 일축압축강도, 마모지수의 변화가 각각의 예측 모델들에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 디스크 커터 수명은 1회전당 관입깊이에 선형적으로 증가하였고, 일축압축강도의 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 마모지수인 CAI 값이 증가함에 따라 Gehring과 CSM 모델에서의 디스크 커터 수명은 감소하였으나, CLI 값이 증가할수록 NTNU 모델의 디스크 커터 수명은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 그리고 실제 현장 자료를 이용하여 디스크 커터 수명을 상호 비교하였다.
