Abstract

Acoustic emission (AE) sensors have broadly used to monitor the damage of underground structures and tunnels. The reliability of measured signal is determined by the coupling condition of the AE sensors which are embedded in the target underground structure. To secure the reliability of health monitoring results, it is important to understand the characteristics of the coupling materials. In this study, laboratory tests were performed using portland cement, micro cement, and gypsum as coupling materials in order to verify the bleeding characteristics. The effective parameters for bleeding were determined to be water-cement ratio, material type, curing time, and injected volume of coupling materials. As a results of the experimental study, the bleeding rate increases with an increase in a water-cement ratio and an injected volume; for portland cement, water-cement ratio and injected volume effects are larger than the micro cement. However, curing time is not much effective for occurrence of the bleeding phenomenon. It is anticipated that this study may be useful for the selection of suitable coupling materials for installation of acoustic emission sensors.

최근 AE 센서를 이용하여 지하 구조물 및 터널의 손상을 모니터링 하는 기법이 널리 활용되고 있다. 지하구조물 내 삽입되는 AE 센서는 커플링(coupling) 상태에 따라 신호의 신뢰도가 결정된다. 건전도 모니터링의 신뢰도를 확보하기 위해서는 커플링 재료의 특성을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 블리딩(bleeding)특성을 규명하기 위해 커플링 재료로 포틀랜드 시멘트, 마이크로 시멘트, 그리고 석고를 이용하여 실내실험을 수행하였다. 블리딩 특성에 영향을 미치는 실험 인자를 물-시멘트 배합비율, 재료의 종류, 양생 기간, 그리고 총 주입량으로 결정하였다. 실험결과, 물-시멘트 배합비율과 커플링 주입량이 증가하면 커플링 재료의 블리딩 비율은 증가하는 결과를 보였으며, 포틀랜드 시멘트의 경우 가장 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 그러나 모든 커플링 재료에서 양생 기간이 블리딩에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서 규명된 커플링 재료의 블리딩 특성결과는 AE 센서 설치 시 적합한 재료 선정을 위하여 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
