본 연구에서는 $30^{\circ}$ 경사진 층리면을 가진 이방성 암반내 위치한 쌍굴터널에서 터널간 이격거리와 터널 단면의 형상이 서로 다른 다섯 가지 모형에 대해 측압계수 2의 하중조건으로 축소모형실험을 실시하였다. 실험을 통해 모형별 균열개시압력과 터널 주변지반의 변형거동을 조사하였으며, 이 조건들이 터널의 안정성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보았다. 터널간 이격거리가 작은 모형일수록 필라에서는 층리면을 따른 전단파괴가 발생하였으며 낮은 압력수준에서 균열이 발생하여 터널의 안정성은 상대적으로 작은 것으로 평가되었다. 사심아치형, 원형, 반원아치형 터널 모형들에 대한 실험에서 반원아치형 터널이 가장 작은 균열개시압력을 보여 터널 안정성이 가장 작게 나타났으며, 원형 터널의 안정성이 가장 크게 나타났다. 또한, 사심아치형 터널의 변형거동은 원형 터널과 반원아치형 터널의 중간적인 형태를 나타내었으며 터널 안정성도 중간정도에 해당하였다. FLAC을 사용한 수치해석 결과는 모형실험의 결과와 정성적으로 부합하였다.

본 논문은 형상의 비선형성을 고려한 큰 동하중을 받는 낮은 원호아치의 동적해석에 관한 연구이다. 따라서 낮은 원호아치를 대상으로 동적 비선형 해석을 수행하고 임계좌굴하중을 구할 수 있는 컴퓨터 프로그램을 개발하는데 주안점을 둔다. 형상의 비선형성은 Lagrangian 운동좌표를 고려하여 해석하였으며 비선형 동적 운동방정식을 풀기 위하여 유한요소법을 사용하였다. 개발된 프로그램을 사용하여 만재 방사형 등분포하중을 받는 원호아치를 해석하고, 그 결과를 다른 연구결과와 비교하여 검증하였다. 또한 여러가지의 형상의 아치에 대한 좌굴 해석을 실시하여 임계좌굴하중을 구하였으며 기존의 연구와 비교하여 정확성을 확인하였다. 모형해석을 통해서 큰 동하중을 받는 원호아치는 기하학적 비선형 거동을 고려하여 해석되어야 하며 아치가 낮아질수록 좌굴발생 가능성이 높아짐을 알 수 있다.

현재 국내에서 하천/해상 교량 공사시 교량기초 설치를 위한 가시설로서 원형 단면의 가물막이(cofferdam)를 많이 적용하고 있다. 기존 케이슨(caisson), 시트파일(sheet pile), 셀(cell) 식 등의 가물막이 공법이 많이 활용되고 있으나 이러한 공법은 설치 및 해체시 많은 시간과 비용이 소요된다. 해상공사에서 가장 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 시트파일 공법의 경우 지반 관입에 의한 시트파일 손상과 요소 부재 연결 작업의 어려움으로 내적 및 외적 안정성 확보를 위해 주의가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 서해안 연약지반을 대상으로 원형강관의 석션관입성 설계를 수행하였고, 현장실험을 통하여 원형강관 석션관입 시공이 가능한 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 표준관입시험(N치) 결과보다 콘관입시험(CPTu)을 이용한 지반 분석 결과를 설계에 적용하는 것이 현장 실험 결과와 보다 유사한 결과를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 실트질 사질토 지반에서 상한석션압 이상의 석션압을 적용시 가물막이 내부의 국부적인 파괴(piping 현상)를 유발하는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper deals with the development of an approach for evaluating the squash load and rigidity of unprotected concrete filled steel columns at elevated temperatures. The current approach of evaluating these properties is reviewed. It is shown that with a non-uniform temperature distribution, over the composite cross-section, the calculations for the squash load and rigidity are tedious in the current method. A simplified approach is proposed to evaluate the temperature distribution, squash load, and rigidity of composite columns. This approach is based on the model in Eurocode 4 and can conveniently be used to calculate the resistance to axial compression of a concrete filled steel column for any fire resistance time. The accuracy of the proposed approach is assessed by comparing the predicted strengths against the results of fire tests on concrete filled circular and square steel columns. The applicability of the proposed approach to a design situation is illustrated through a numerical example.

Tests on steel tubular columns of square, rectangular and circular section filled with normal and lightweight aggregate concrete were conducted to investigate the failure modes of such composite columns. Thirty-six full scale columns filled with lightweight and normal weight aggregate concrete, eighteen specimens for each, were tested under axial loads. Nine hollow steel sections of similar specimens were also tested and results were compared to those of filled sections. The test results were illustrated by a number of load-deflection and axial deformation curves. The results showed that both types of filled columns failed due to overall buckling, while hollow steel columns failed due to bulging at their ends (local buckling). According to the above-mentioned results, and due to low specific gravity and thermal conductivity of the lightweight concrete the further interest should be concentrated in replacing the normal concrete by the lightweight aggregate concrete.

An analytical compressive stress-strain relationship model for circular and rectangular concrete specimens confined with laminated carbon fiber sheets (CFS) is studied. Tsai-Hill and Tsai-Wu failure criteria were used to implement orthotropic behavior of laminated composite materials. By using these criteria, an algorithm which analyzes the confinement effect of CFS on concrete was developed. The proposed analytical model was verified through the comparison with experimental data. Various parameters such as concrete strength, ply angle, laminate thickness, section shape, and ply stacking sequences were investigated. Numerical results by the proposed model effectively simulate the experimental compressive stress-strain behavior of CFS confined concrete specimens. Also, the pro-posed model estimates the compressive strength of the specimen to a high degree of accuracy.

In this paper, we developed the hydroforming simulator which can apply an axial compressive force and high internal pressure to bulge a tube. Experimental dtudies have been performed to investigate the effect of each parameters such as internal pressure and axial compression stroke required for the forming of circular components. Under the improper forming conditions there were two forming failures. One was the axial buckling due to excessive axial compressive load and the other was the circumferential necking fracture due to relatively high internal pressure. A safe forming zone without any failures exists between these two extreme zones. Also the condition of forming failure such as fracture is examined throughout the theoretical analysis. This paper covers a brief overview of the mechanism of hydroforming process as well as the design of die and tools.

It is necessary to drill new opening in an existing R.C beam either for service ducts and pipes or the determination of in place concrete strength. Therefore, to simulate in this study, 18-R.C beams were fabricated with circular openings. The major parameters considered are the sizes, location of opening and cut-off stirrup. These beams are tested shear failure and capacity under a point loading. The sizes of opening are changed 0.11, 0.2, 0.3 times of beam-depth and the locations of opening are divided into $X_1$ zone, $X_2$ zone, $X_3$zone. Loads are applied up to failure to observe the cracking initiation and propagation, initial diagonal cracking, midspan deflection. As a result, the sizes of opening with 0.11D and 0.2D in R.C beams without cutoff stirrup are profitable in $X_1$ and $X_3$zone. R.C beams with 0.3D and cutoff stirrup are advantageous in $X_3$zone.

Face stability analyses provides the most probable failure mechanisms and the understanding about parameters that need to be considered for the evaluation of ground movements caused by tunneling. After the Upper Bound Method (UBM) solution which can consider the influence of seepage forces and depth-dependent effective cohesion is verified with the numerical experiments, the probabilistic model is proposed to calculate the unbiased limiting tunnel collapse pressure. A reliability analysis of a shallow circular tunnel driven by a pressurized shield in a frictional and cohesive soil is presented to consider the inherent uncertainty in the input parameters and the proposed model. The probability of failure that exceeding a specified applied pressure at the tunnel face is estimated. Sensitivity and importance measures are computed to identify the key parameters and random variables in the model.

The practical usage of underground space and demand for vehicular tunnels necessitate the construction of non-circular wide rectangular tunnels. However, constructing large tunnels in soft clayey soil conditions with no ground improvement can lead to excessive ground deformations and collapse. In recent years, in situ ground improvement techniques such as jet grouting and deep cement mixing are often utilized to perform cement-stabilisation around the tunnel boundary to prevent large deformations and failure. This paper discusses the stability characteristics and failure behaviour of a wide rectangular tunnel in cement-treated soft clays. First, the plane strain finite element model is developed and validated with the results of centrifuge model tests available in the past literature. The critical tunnel support pressures computed from the numerical study are found to be in good agreement with those of centrifuge model tests. The influence of varying strength and thickness of improved soil surround, and cover depth are studied on the stability and failure modes of a rectangular tunnel. It is observed that the failure behaviour of the tunnel in improved soil surround depends on the ratio of the strength of improved soil surround to the strength of surrounding soil, i.e., q_ui/q_us, rather than just q_ui. For low q_ui/q_us ratios,the stability increases with the cover; however, for the high strength improved soil surrounds with q_ui >> q_us, the stability decreases with the cover. The failure chart, modified stability equation, and stability chart are also proposed as preliminary design guidelines for constructing rectangular tunnels in the improved soil surrounded by soft clays.
