Anisotropic consolidation, shear, a transportational component during or after deposition each may produce anisotropic fabrics, which result in the anisotropic properties of soils. Nevertheless, the isotropically consolidated compression triaxial tests are commonly used in practice to determine the strength of the anisotropically consolidated soils because of their practicality and simplicity. In this paper the effects of anisotropic consolidation on the strength properties of soils are discussed. For the sandy soils consolidated under a constant vertical consolidation pressure, the deformation modulus decreases with decreasing consolidation pressure ratio($\sigma$$\sub$3c/'/$\sigma$ sub 1c/'), but the liquefaction resistance increases. For the saturated cohesive soils, both the undrained shear strength and undrained creep strength decrese with decreasing the consolidation pressure ratio. When the in-situ strength properties of the anisotropically and normally consolidated soils are determined by the isotropically consolidated tests, the undrained shear strength and creep strength of saturated cohesive soils as well as the deformation modulus of sandy soils are measured to be higher than the rear in-situ values. This, therefore, could lead to a dangerous judgement in stability analysis

암석의 절리면 전단강도의 이방성을 연구하기 위하여 인공절리면을 형성한 시편에 대한 실험을 실시하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 즉 낮은 수직응력 상태에서 전단 방향에 따른 전단강도, 전단강성 및 마찰각을 구하기 위한 실험을 실시하였다 그 결과 낮은 수직응력하에서 전단 강도 및 강성은 전단 방향에 따라 이방성을 보이며, 특히 수직응력 2.45 MPa미만에서 뚜렷하였다. 그리고 수직응력이 증가할수록 절리면의 이방성 효과는 감소하였다. 따라서 낮은 수직응력 하에서 전단강도 및 강성값을 보다 정확히 구하기 위해서 Barton의 식에 전단방향을 고려한 보정함수 F(a)를 반영하여 새로이 수정식을 제안한다.

원 지반을 성토하여 인공적으로 형성된 다짐지반에 터파기를 하여 관을 매립하거나, 암거를 설치하는 작업을 수행 하는 경우가 자주 있다. 이 때 조성되는 임시굴착사면의 기울기를 적용함에 있어서 실험이나 사면안정해석 등의 적절한 과정을 수행하지 않음으로 인해 사면붕괴가 발생하여 인명 피해는 물론이고 공기의 지연 및 공사비의 증액 등 크고 작은 손실을 초래하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 임시사면의 안정성 검토를 위해 대표적인 경우들에 대한 사면안정해석을 수행하였으며, 특히 사면안정에 대한 다짐지반의 비등방성에 따른 전단강도의 영향을 검토하였다. 해석에서 적용한 다짐지반의 비등방성 전단강도는 전단면과 다짐층 간의 경사를 변화시키면서 수행한 일련의 직접전단시험으로부터 추정하였다. 해석 결과, 비등방성을 고려하는 지의 여부에 따라서 임시사면의 적절한 안정기울기가 소폭으로 변화할 가능성이 있음을 알았다. 그러나, 이에 따른 안전율의 변화나 파괴면의 양상은 그리 크게 변하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

For rock materials, a transversely isotropic failure criterion established through the extended Lade-Duncan failure criterion incorporating an anisotropic state scalar parameter, which is a joint invariant of deviatoric microstructure fabric tensor and normalized deviatoric stress tensor, is verified with the results of triaxial compressive data on Tournemire shale. For torsional shear mode with $0{\leq}b{\leq}0.75$, rock shear strengths decrease with ${\alpha}$ increasing until the rock shear strength approaches minimum value at ${\alpha}{\approx}40^{\circ}$, and after this point, the rock shear strengths increase as ${\alpha}$ increases further. For the torsional shear mode with b > 0.75, rock shear strengths are almost constant for ${\alpha}{\leq}40^{\circ}$, but it increases with increase in ${\alpha}$ afterwards. The rock shear strength variation against ${\alpha}$ agrees with shear strength changing tendency of heavily OCR natural London Clays tested before. Prediction results show that the transversely isotropic failure criterion proposed in the paper is reasonable.

An analysis to determine shear centers for anisotropic elastic thin-walled composite beams, cantilevered and loaded transversely at the free end is presented. The shear center is formulated based on familiar strength of material procedures analogous to those for isotropic beams. These procedures call for a balancing of torsional moments on the cross sectional surface and lead to a condition of zero resultant torsional couple. As a consequence, due the presence of anisotropic coupling, certain non-classical effects are manifested and are illustrated in two example problems. The most distinguishing result is that twisting may occur for composite beams even if shear forces are applied at the shear center. The derived shear center locations do not depend on any specific anisotropic bending theories per se, but only on the values of bending and shear stresses which such theories produce.

절리면에서의 이방성 및 전단거동을 정량적으로 파악하기 위한 목적으로 암석 절리면에 석고 몰드를 제작한 후 시멘트 몰타르를 이용하여 복제된 절리모델에 직접전단시험을 실시하였다. 시험 전 암석 시험편의 절리면에 대하여 기계식 단면측정기를 이용하여 절리면의 거칠기를 측정하고 이에 대한 결과를 수치화하였다. 수치화를 통하여 제시된 좌표값을 통하여 거칠기의 통계적 변수와 프랙탈 차원을 구하였다. 대부분의 절리모형에서, 낮은 수직응력 수준에서 전단변위에 따른 전단응력의 값이 지속되거나 상승하였다. 이는 자연상태의 절리면에 대하여 형성된 전리모형의 경우 단일 거칠기 특성에 의존되지 않음을 나타낸다 거칠기에 대한 여러 통계적 변수에 의해 제시된 단면의 특성과 전단강도와의 관계는 일정하지 않으며, 대부분 낮은 상관관계를 가지고 있음이 확인되었다. JRC를 이용한 Barton의 경험식과 실제 실험에서 주어진 값을 비교한 결과 Barton의 경험식은 거칠기에 대한 이방성의 영향을 고려하기 어려우며, 절리면에 대한 특성을 파악함에 있어서 적절하지 않은 것으고 판단된다. 프랙탈 차원의 경우 동일한 단면에 대하여 이방성을 고려할 수 있었으며, 이를 이용한 경험식을 사용한 결과 시험결과와 유사한 이방성을 인지할 수 있었다.

Composite materials are consist of two or more different materials to produce desirable properties for structural strength. Because of their superiority in strength, corrosion resistance, and weight reduction, they are used extensively as structural members. The objective of this study is to present the effectivness of the laminated composite elements by analyzing in-plane displacement and stress of the anisotropic laminated annular elements. Anisotropic laminated structures are very difficult to analyze and apply, compared with isotropic and orthotropic cases for arbitrary boundaries and fiber angle -ply. Boundary conditions for the examples used in this study consist of two opposite edges clamped and the other two edges free, and finite difference method is used in this study for numerical analysis. From the numerical result, it is found that the program used in this study can be used to obtain the displacement of the straight beams considering it's transverse shear deformation as well as anisotropic laminated elements. Several numerical examples show the advantages of the stiffness increase when the angle-ply composite materials are used. Therefore it gives a guide in deciding how to make use of fiber's angle for the subtended angle, load cases, and boundary conditions.

The probabilistic bearing capacity of a strip footing placed on the edge of a purely cohesive reinforced soil slope is computed by combining lower bound finite element limit analysis technique with random field method and Monte Carlo simulation technique. To simulate actual field condition, anisotropic random field model of undrained soil shear strength is generated by using the Cholesky-Decomposition method. With the inclusion of a single layer of reinforcement, dimensionless bearing capacity factor, N always increases in both deterministic and probabilistic analysis. As the coefficient of variation of the undrained soil shear strength increases, the mean N value in both unreinforced and reinforced slopes reduces for particular values of correlation length in horizontal and vertical directions. For smaller correlation lengths, the mean N value of unreinforced and reinforced slopes is always lower than the deterministic solutions. However, with the increment in the correlation lengths, this difference reduces and at a higher correlation length, both the deterministic and probabilistic mean values become almost equal. Providing reinforcement under footing subjected to eccentric load is found to be an efficient solution. However, both the deterministic and probabilistic bearing capacity for unreinforced and reinforced slopes reduces with the consideration of loading eccentricity.

This paper presents stability evaluation of unlined tunnels with semi-circular arch and straight sides (SASS) driven in non-homogeneous and anisotropic undrained clay. Numerical analysis has been conducted based on lower bound finite element limit analysis with second order cone programming under plane strain condition. The solutions will be used for the assessment of stability of unlined semi-circular arch tunnels and tunnels in which semi-circular roof is supported over rectangular/square sections. The stability charts have been generated in terms of a non-dimensional factor considering linear variation in undrained anisotropic strength for normally consolidated and lightly over consolidated clay with depth, and constant undrained anisotropic strength for heavily over-consolidated clay across the depth. The effect of normalized surcharge pressure on ground surface, non-homogeneity and anisotropy of clay, tunnel cover to width ratio and height to width ratio of tunnel on the stability factor and associated zone of shear failure at yielding have been examined and discussed. The geometry of tunnel in terms of shape and size, and non-homogeneity and anisotropy in undrained strength of clay has been observed to influence significantly the stability of unlined SASS tunnels.

During the construction of E75 highway through Grdelica gorge in Serbia, a major failure occurred in the zone of reinforced rock slope. Excavation was performed in highly anisotropic Paleozoic schist rock formation. The reinforcement consisted of the two rows of micropile wall with pre-stressed anchors. Forces in anchors were monitored with load cells while benchmarks were installed for superficial displacement measurements. The aim of the study is to investigate possible causes of instability considering different probability distributions of the strength of discontinuities and anchor bond strength by applying different optimization techniques for finding the critical failure surface. Even though the deterministic safety factor value is close to unity, the probability of failure is governed by variability of shear strength of anisotropic planes and optimization method used for locating the critical sliding surface. The Cuckoo search technique produces higher failure probabilities compared to the others. Depending on the assigned statistical distribution of input parameters, various performance functions of the factor of safety are obtained. The probability of failure is insensitive to the variation of bond strength. Different sampling techniques should yield similar results considering that the sufficient number of safety factor evaluations is chosen to achieve converged solution.
