Population of urban areas is rapidly increased due to urbanization. This situation leads to lack of surface space. So, underground space has been developed for resolving the problem of congested urban areas. Many studies have researched for this situation. However, previous studies mainly focused on behaviour of structures. Researches about behaviour of soil are lacked. For this reason, this study has investigated interactive behaviour between embedded pile and its surrounding ground due to tunnelling. Soil deformation is observed by the close range photogrammetric method and image processing in the model test. These data are compared with numerical analysis.

This paper is to analyze the behaviors of tunnel support by TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) sensor using electrical pulse. To analysis the behaviors of tunnel support, Copper tape as sensing materials was studied for on-site installation. Copper tape to the top of the glass tape, foam tape, and shielding the lower part was used electromagnetic shield sheet. For a high sensitivity to load and fill out the measurement noise emissions has been developed for the production of materials. This sensing material through the tunnel model tests for the change by surcharge load in TDR data were analyzed. Varing stiffness and support of conditions were determined the change of TDR data through PVC pipe tunnel section model tests. By comparing TDR data and finite element analysis, the behaviors of the tunnel support materials were analyzed qualitatively.

In the KRISO cavitation tunnel, the acoustic characteristics for the measurement of underwater noise are investigated, The background noise is measured and analyzed up to 100kHz at various test conditions. The noise level of the KRISO cavitation tunnel is compared with those of the other cavitation tunnels which have been designed for the noise study[HYKAT(Germany), GTH(France), etc.]. In order to investigate the background noise source. the coherence between structural vibration and noise level is analyzed using the B&K 3550 FFT analyzer. The experimental results show the possibility of the noise study and suggest the improvement plan.

The use of lattice girder is increased at the tunnel site in Korea because of the several advantages over the traditional H-steel rib. The lattice girder supports the ground with shotcretes, forming a combined support system. Therefore, stress measurements at the lattice girder are necessary to calculated the ground loads. However, field measurements at the lattice girder are rarely performed at the tunnel site. The proper way of stress measurements for the lattice girder is not fully established in Korea. The correction of stress measurements at the shotcretes is often disregarded even though the measured stresses include non-stress related strains. Results of the stress measurements obtained from the lattice girder and non-stress shotcretes are used to improve the credibility of the stress measurements at the primary lining.

Recently structural monitoring using fiber optic sensors became popular, but the fiber sensors are very difficult to apply to the real structure due to difficulty of handling. In this research, we developed the fiber sensor packages easy to attach or fasten to the structures like ordinary electric sensors. We apply the fiber sensors to the real tunnel structure for measuring the strains and shape changes. The applied fiber optics sensors show the behavior of tile tunnel structures. We summarize the data from tunnel for 2 year construction period and confirm the structural behavior of tunnel.

In this study, the behavior of urban subway tunnels is measured using instrumentation sensors installed in the lining concrete inside subway tunnels in order to analyze their behavior according to temperature variations. It is observed that the stresses of the concrete lining, tunnel convergence, and cracks change according to the temperature variations. However, the crack deformation differs depending on the size and status of the crack. In addition, this study proposes a correction formula for the lining stress and tunnel convergence through numerical analyses of the concrete lining according to the temperature variations. The results of this research can be used in the tunnel maintenance considering the tunnel behavior depending on the temperature variations in the tunnel.

Accurate measurements of fluctuating pressure in the cavitation tunnel are necessary to predict vibration and noise intensities in full scale ship. In this paper, the results of an experimental study on fluctuating pressure induced by a cavitating propeller are presented and discussed. Extensive measurements at several propeller revolutions are made using the flat plate to understand controversial problems of the effects of propeller revolution in the cavitation tunnel. The analysis of the uncertainties in experimental measurements and results is used to estimate the errors in uniform flow.

The tunnel construction is increasing in order to secure a good driving performance of the car and train. A cases of tunnel collapse and the tunnel excessive displacement are increasing with the increase in tunnel construction. In terms of empirical construction methods using the strength characteristics of soil, it is important for tunnel construction to analyze causes of collapse and displacement. In the paper, it was analyzed the causes of collapse and excessive displacement of tunnel in the fractured ground condition. The results of analysis is that the increase of rainfall and lasting increase of displacement and large scale fractured ground are interconnected.
