The evaluation of shear modulus (or shear wave velocity) profile of the site is very important in various fields of geotechnical engineering. In the field, there exist spatial variations of shear modulus that case uncertainty in the geotechnical analysis or design. So it is necessary to evaluate the spatial variation of shear wave velocities of the soil site. In this study, the HWAW method is applied to the determination of a 3-D Vs map of soil site. The HWAW method, which is based on harmonic wavelet transforms, has been developed to determine phase and group velocities of waves. The HWAW method uses only the signal portion of the maximum local signal/noise ratio to evaluate the phase velocity in order to minimize the effect of the noise. The field testing of this method is relatively simple and fast because only one experimental setup, which consists of one pair of receivers on the surface, is needed using a short receiver spacing setup (1~3m). These characteristics make it possible to determine detailed local Vs profile in the site with lateral Vs variation and to evaluate 3-D Vs map by performing a series of tests on the grid. To estimate the applicability of the proposed method, field tests were performed. Through field applications validity and applicability of the proposed method were verified.

지반의 강성도 또는 전단파 속도는 지반의 내진 설계 및 해석에서 중요한 인자 중의 하나이다. 현장 강성도를 측정하기 위한 탄성파 기법은 서로 다른 그만의 장단점을 갖고 있다. 이 연구에서는 데이터의 질과 시험의 수월성을 증진시키기 위해 벤더 엘리먼트의 특성과, 탄성파 기법 중 크로스홀과 탄성파 콘의 장점을 조합하여 새로운 프로브를 개발하였다. 머드포오크(MudFork)로 명명한 이 프로브이 기본 구조는 두 개의 블레이드(blade)로 이루어진 포오크 형태이다. 두 블레이드에 발진자와 감지기 엘리먼트가 각각 장착되었다. 실내 카올리나이트 토조에서 이 프로브가 지반에 관입될 때 야기되는 교란도를 규명하였다. 이 프로브를 인천의 한 연약지반에 일반 시추기를 이용하여 SPT(standard penetration test) 롯드로 관입하고 깊이별 전단파를 계측하였다. 이 계측된 전단파를 실내 시험과 콘 관입시험의 데이터로 검증한 결과 이 프로브는 데이터의 질과 시험의 수월성면에서 탁월한 현장 전단파 계측 장비로 평가된다.

토목이나 환경분야에 적용되는 시추공을 이용한 P파와 S파 속도검층 수행 시 여러 고려해야 할 사항이 있다. 토양이나 풍화암 등 연약층에 설치한 케이싱이 탄성파 측정에 미치는 영향, 사용되는 주파수에 따라 측정되는 탄성파 속도의 변화 등이 그것이다. 또한 속도검층으로부터 구한 탄성계수는 동적특성을 반영한다. 이러한 과제를 극복하기 위해서는 탄성파시험이 설정된 시추공에서는 가급적 케이싱을 설치하지 않고 공벽을 유지하는 시추 기술을 개발, 적용하도록 하고, 속도검층의 목적에 맞는 주파수 대역의 시험법을 적용하도록 해야 하겠다. 또한 내진설계자들이 속도검층에서 구한 동탄성계수와 실내역학시험에서 구한 정탄성계수와의 차이점을 인식하고 적절히 사용할 수 있도록 조언하는 것도 필요하다.

Hamilton's principle is used to derive Euler-Lagrange equations for free surface flow problems of incompressible ideal fluid. The velocity field is chosen to satisfy the continuity equation a priori. This approach results in a hierarchial set of governing equations consist of two evolution equations with respect to two canonical variables and corresponding boundary value problems. The free surface elevation and the Lagrange's multiplier are the canonical variables in Hamilton's sense. This Lagrange's multiplier is a velocity potential defined on the free surface. Energy is conserved as a consequence of the Hamiltonian structure. These equations can be applied to waves in water of finite depth including generalization of Hamilton's equations given by Miles and Salmon.

This paper presents a target scoring method using shock wave signals, which are generated from the supersonic speed of a projectile. The shock wave is detected from three acoustic sensors located in the target plane and the difference of the delay times are measured. The target coordinates are calculated from the effective propagation of velocity (EPV) and the delay times of the shock wave; and the EPV is from the projectile velocity and the delay time. With a comparison between the measurement result and the known coordinates, the accuracy and the usefulness of the proposed scheme is validated.

The present paper is devoted to study SH-wave propagation in heterogeneous layer laying over an inhomogeneous isotropic elastic half-space. The dispersion relation for propagation of said waves is derived with Green's function method and Fourier transform. As a special case when the upper layer and lower half-space are homogeneous, our derived equation is in agreement with the general equation of Love wave. Numerically, it is observed that the velocity of SH-wave increases with the increase of inhomogeneity parameter.

In this study, focusing of ultrasonic Lamb wave by negative refraction with mode conversion from antisymmetric to symmetric mode was investigated. When a wave propagates backward by negative refraction, the energy flux is antiparallel to the phase velocity. Backward propagation of Lamb wave is quite well known, but the behavior of backward Lamb wave at an interface has rarely been investigated. A pin-type transducer is used to detect Lamb wave propagating on a steel plate with a step change in thickness. Conversion from forward to backward propagating mode leads to negative refraction and thus wave focusing. By comparing the amplitudes of received Lamb waves at a specific frequency measured at different distance between transmitter and interface, the focusing of Lamb wave due to negative refraction was confirmed.

This study examines the accuracy of large-eddy simulation (LES) to simulate the flow around a large irregular sloping complex terrain. Typically, real built up environments are surrounded by complex terrain geometries with many features. The complex terrain surrounding The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology campus was modelled and the flow over an uphill slope was simulated. The simulated results, including mean velocity profiles and turbulence intensities, were compared with the flow characteristics measured in a wind tunnel model test. Given the size of the domain and the corresponding constraints on the resolution of the simulation, the mean velocity components within the boundary layer flow, especially in the stream-wise direction were found to be reasonably well replicated by the LES. The turbulence intensity values were found to differ from the wind tunnel results in the building recirculation zones, mostly due to the constraints placed on spatial and temporal resolutions. Based on the validated mean velocity profile results, the flow-structure interactions around these buildings and the surrounding terrain were examined.

In this study, a relationship between small-strain shear modulus ($G_{max}$) and overconsolidation ratio (OCR) based on shear wave velocity ($V_S$) measurement was established to identify the stress history of centrifuge model ground. A centrifuge test was conducted in various centrifugal acceleration levels including loading and unloading sequences to cause various stress histories on centrifuge model ground. The $V_S$ and vertical effective stress were measured at each level of acceleration. Then, a sensitivity analysis was conducted using testing data to ensure the suitability of OCR function for the tested cohesionless soils and found that OCR can be estimated based on $V_S$ measurements irrespective of normally-consolidated or overconsolidated loading conditions. Finally, the developed $G_{max}$-OCR relationship was applied to centrifuge models constructed and tested under various induced stress-history conditions. Through a series of tests, it was concluded that the induced stress history on centrifuge model by compaction, g-level variation, and past overburden load can be analysed quantitatively, and it is convinced that the OCR evaluation technique will contribute to better interpret the centrifuge test results.

본 논문은 상호 상관관계 함수의 특성을 이용하여 이 함수 특성인 입력파와 출력파의 상관관계를 구하여 Lamb파의 $A_o$ mode의 속도를 알루미늄(6061-T651)에서 측정하여 본 결과 정확한 값을 구하였기에 일반적으로 속도 측정이 매우 힘든 망상형 유리섬유 복합체에 대한 음파의 전파속도를 측정하였다. 본 상호 상관 관계 함수의 특징은 외부의 어떠한 잡음에도 영향을 받지않고 쉽고 정확히 측정할 수 있으므로 그 응용면에 상당한 가치가 있고 또한 여러가지 입력파에 대한 입력파 원천 및 전파 경로 분석이 용이하여 본 복합체의 섬유구조 형태도 조사하여 본 결과 정량적 분석도 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
