In this study, the ventilation characteristics is investigated numerically of the longitudinal ventilation method in the curved long road tunnel. Numerical work has been conducted for the jet fan location by utilizing the commercial finite-volume code, FLUENT. Configuration of the tunnel is three-lane, 1600 m long, $120m^2$ in area, 3000 m curvature radius. The velocity profile, distribution of mono-dioxide carbon and flow rate of air are examined in the tunnel. Through the analysis, it is found that the difference of ventilation flow rate Is a little by the jet fan location, but tunnel outlet setup (CASEIII) of jet fans is the most efficient concerned with CO concentration.

Urban conditions, such as existing underground facilities and ambient noise due to cultural activity, restrict the general application of conventional geophysical techniques. At a tunnelling site in an urban area along an existing railroad, we used the refraction microtremor (REMI) technique (Louie, 2001) as an alternative way to get geotechnical information. The REMI method uses ambient noise recorded by standard refraction equipment and a linear geophone array to derive a shear-wave velocity profile. In the inversion procedure, the Rayleigh wave dispersion curve is picked from a wavefield transformation, and iteratively modelled to get the S-wave velocity structure. The REMI survey was carried out along the line of the planned railway tunnel. At this site vibrations from trains and cars provided strong seismic sources that allowed REMI to be very effective. The objective of the survey was to evaluate the rock mass rating (RMR), using shear-wave velocity information from REMI. First, the relation between uniaxial compressive strength, which is a component of the RMR, and shear-wave velocity from laboratory tests was studied to learn whether shear-wave velocity and RMR are closely related. Then Suspension PS (SPS) logging was performed in selected boreholes along the profile, in order to draw out the quantitative relation between the shear-wave velocity from SPS logging and the RMR determined from inspection of core from the same boreholes. In these tests, shear-wave velocity showed fairly good correlation with RMR. A good relation between shear-wave velocity from REMI and RMR could be obtained, so it is possible to estimate the RMR of the entire profile for use in design of the underground tunnel.

This study assessed the behavior of rock pillar in tunnel diverging area by using a three dimensional numerical analysis. Based on parameters affecting the behavior of rock pillar, this study evaluated different safety factors according to pillar width, depth and rock conditions. It turned out that as the rock pillar width increases, the change curve of safety factors in accordance with depth and rock conditions shows more of the nonlinear behavior. By the assessment of the minimum safety factor, a safety factor chart on the behavior of rock pillar in tunnel diverging area was suggested.

For the electrification of the existing railways, the security of the restriction boundary of building with mechanistic stability research on the antiquated tunnel must be accomplished essentially. If the tunnel don't secure its restriction boundary of building, the reconstruction based on improvement of tunnel alignment are generated and its surveying data are required. The precise surveying was conducted with the same coordinate system for three tunnels of Youngdong tramline, and the restriction boundary of building of the straight and curve section were analyzed effectively by acquiring the data of profile and cross section, profile rail-height, rail-grade, cross tunnel height, and restriction boundary of building. This study is presented for valuation data of the stability of the electrification design to construct and analyze restriction boundary of building, which compared with the drawing and its existing design using profile and cross section. After this, it is interoperable to increase the development of real-time monitoring system on the tunnel structures.

Calculating the distribution of stresses and displacements around a circular tunnel excavated in infinite isotropic rock mass subjected to hydrostatic stress condition is one of the basic problems in rock engineering. While closed-form solutions for the distribution are known if rock masses are considered as elastic, perfectly plastic, or brittle-plastic media, a few numerically approximated solutions based on various simplifying assumptions have been reported for strain-softening rock mass. In this study, a simple numerical method is introduced for the analysis of strain-softening behavior of the circular tunnel in Mohr-Coulomb rock mass. The method can also applied to the analysis of the tunnel in brittle-plastic or perfectly plastic media. For the brittle-plastic case where closed-formsolution exists, the performance of the present method is verified by showing an excellent agreement between two solutions. In order to demonstrate the strain-softening behaviors predicted by the proposed method. a parameter study for a softening index is given and the construction of ground reaction curves is carried out. The importance of defining the characteristics of dilation in plastic analysis is discussed through analyzing the displacements near the surface of tunnel.

This study conducted Trapdoor tests with actual tunnel shape, investigated the mechanical behavior of ground and loosening load on tunnels, and evaluated the mechanism of progressive failure by numerical simulation. The loosening load sharply decreased initially, but it generally increased and reached the stabilized level exhibiting the arching effect, and loose sand showed relatively higher values than those of dense sand. The shear band started from the tunnel shoulder with $63^{\circ}$ (loose sand) to $69^{\circ}$ (dense sand), and gently curved inward to the ground surface. The widths of shear band formation above the tunnel showed a range from 1.8b to 1.9b (b=Tunnel width), which are similar to those values calculated from existing formular. The vertical height of this shear band for deep tunnel was turned out to be a bit lower than that from existing studies (3.0*Tunnel Height).

본 논문은 단결정 및 다결정 실리콘 기판 상에 아산화질소 플라즈마 처리를 통하여 형성한 초박형 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막의 특성과 이의 어플리케이션에 관한 것이다. 초박형 절연막은 현재 다양한 전자소자의 제작과 특성 향상을 위하여 활용되고 있으나 일반적인 화학 기상 증착 방법으로는 균일도를 확보하기 어려운 문제점을 가지고 있다. 디스플레이의 구동소자로 활용되는 박막 트랜지스터의 특성 향상과 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 터널링 박막에 응용하기 위하여 초박형 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막의 증착과 이의 특성을 분석하였고, 실제 어플리케이션에 적용하였다. 실리콘 산화막과 실리콘 계면상에 존재하는 질소는 터널링 전류와 결함 형성을 감소시키며, 벌크 내에 존재하는 질소는 단일 실리콘 산화막에 비해 더 두꺼운 박막을 커패시턴스의 감소없이 이용할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 아산화질소 플라즈마를 이용하여 활성화된 질소 및 산소 라디칼들이 실리콘 계면을 개질하여 초박형 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막을 형성할 수 있다. 플라즈마 처리 시간과 RF power의 변화에 따라 형성된 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막의 두께 및 광학적, 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 아산화질소 플라즈마 처리 방법을 사용한 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막을 시간과 박막 두께의 함수로 전환해보면 초기적으로 증착률이 높고 시간이 지남에 따라 두께 증가가 포화상태에 도달함을 확인할 수 있다. 아산화질소 플라즈마 처리 시간의 변화에 따라 형성된 박막의 전기적인 특성의 경우, 플라즈마 처리 시간이 짧은 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막의 경우 전압의 변화에 따라 공핍영역에서의 기울기가 현저히 감소하며 이는 플라즈마에 의한 계면 손상으로 계면결합 전하량이 증가에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 전류-전압 곡선을 활용하여 측정한 터널링 메카니즘은 2.3 nm 이하의 두께를 가진 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막은 직접 터널링이 주도하며, 2.7 nm 이상의 두께를 가진 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막은 F-N 터널링이 주도하고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 결론적으로 실리콘 옥시나이트라이드 박막을 활용하여 전기적으로 안정한 박막트랜지스터를 제작할 수 있었으며, 2.5 nm 두께를 경계로 터널링 메커니즘이 변화하는 특성을 이용하여 전하 주입 및 기억 유지 특성이 효과적인 터널링 박막을 증착하였고, 이를 바탕으로 다결정 실리콘 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작하였다.

In this study, the failure and deformation characteristics of steel fiber reinforced shotcrete (SFRS) which is a primary tunnel support was investigated to find out ground-support mutual behavior. To this end, a mock-up of a tunnel was made and experimented with the conditions of lateral earth pressure coefficient 0.5 and 1.0. During the tests, 11 hydraulic cylinders were used for loading. for better simulation of the lateral earth pressure effect, these cylinders were controlled separately by two groups; crown and side wall. Meanwhile, the deformation of shotcrete was measured by 11 LVDTs. Backfill material was also used fur better load transfer from hydraulic cylinders to shotcrete. For the validation of the mock-up test results, 3D numerical analysis is carried out. To do numerical analysis under the same condition as a mock-up test, the load history curve which was obtained during the test was tried to be simulated using an individual FISH routine in the numerical analysis.

The spectral-analysis-of-surface-waves (SASW) method is a nondestructive testing method based upon generation and detection of elastic stress waves. SASW is widely used as one of the techniques to determine stiffness profile in engineering geophysics. The essential steps involved are construction of an experimental dispersion curve from data collected in situ, and inversion of the dispersion curve to determine the stiffness profile. The main object of this study is to derive an analytical Jacobian for the inversion. If we set the subsurface to N homogeneous layer, it could save 2N times Jacobian calculation compared to numerical jacobian calculation during inversion. To reconstruct a stiffness profile, constrained damped least square method was applied for the inversion. The algorithm was tested for the numerical data and for the real asphalt and tunnel data, which were able to verify the stiffness profile. The stiffness profile reconstructed by the algorithm showed the possibility to appraise the soundness of tunnel with applications SASW.

Urban conditions such as underground facilities and ambient noises due to cultural activity restrict the application of conventional geophysical techniques in general. We used the refraction microtremor (REMI) technique as an alternative way to get the geotechnical information, in particular shear-wave (S-wave) velocity information, at a site along an existing rail road. The REMI method uses ambient noises recorded using standard refraction equipment to derived shear-wave velocity information at a site. It does a wavefield transformation on the recorded wavefield to produce Rayleigh wave dispersion curve, which are then picked and modeled to get the shear-wave velocity structure. At this site the vibrations from the running trains provided strong noise sources that allowed REMI to be very effective. REMI was performed along the planned new underground rail tunnel. In addition, Suspension PS logging (SPS) were carried out at selected boreholes along the profile in order to draw out the quantitative relation between the shear wave velocity from the PS logging and the rock mass rating (RMR) determined from the inspection of the cores recovered from the same boreholes, These correlations were then used to relate the shear-wave velocity derived from REMI to RMR along the entire profile. The correlation between shear wave velocity and RMR was very good and so it was possible to estimate the RMR of the total zone of interest for the design of underground tunnel,
