A series of direct shear tests were conducted to investigate the frictional properties of the interface between structures and the filling soil of Chongqing airport fourth stage expansion project. Two types of structures are investigated, one is low carbon steel and the other is the bedrock sampled from the site. The influence of soil water content, surface roughness and material types of structure were analyzed. The tests show that the interface friction and shear displacement curve has no softening stage and the curve shape is close to the Clough-Duncan hyperbola, while the soil is mainly shear contraction during testing. The interface frictional resistance and normal stress curve meets the Mohr-Coulomb criterion and the derived friction angle and frictional resistance of interface increase as surface roughness increases but is always lower than the internal friction angle and shear strength of soil respectively. When surface roughness is much larger than soil grain size, soil-structure interface is nearly shear surface in soil. In addition to the geometry of structural surface, the material types of structure also affects the performance of soil-structure interface. The wet interface frictional resistance will become lower than the natural one under specific conditions.

In this paper, the three dimensional Parallel Realistic Failure Process Analysis ($RFPA^{3D}$-Parallel) code based on micromechanical model is employed to investigate the bonding behavior in FRP sheet bonded to concrete in single shear test. In the model, the heterogeneity of brittle disordered material at a meso-scale was taken into consideration in order to realistically demonstrate the mechanical characteristics of FRP-to-concrete. Modified Mohr-coulomb strength criterion with tension cut-off, where a stressed element can damage in shear or in tension, was adopted and a stiffness degradation approach was used to simulate the initiation, propagation and growth of microcracks in the model. In addition, a Master-Slave parallel operation control technique was adopted to implement the parallel computation of a large numerical model. Parallel computational results of debonding of FRP-concrete visually reproduce the spatial and temporal debonding failure progression of microcracks in FRP sheet bonded to concrete, which agrees well with the existing testing results in laboratory. The numerical approach in this study provides a useful tool for enhancing our understanding of cracking and debonding failure process and mechanism of FRP-concrete and our ability to predict mechanical performance and reliability of these FRP sheet bonded to concrete structures.

Charts are used extensively in slope practical application to meet the need of quick assessment of rock slope design. However, Charts for estimating the shear strength of the rock mass of a slope are considerably limited. In this paper, based on the Hoek-Brown (HB) criterion which is widely used in rock slope engineering, we present charts which can be used to estimate the Mohr-Coulomb (MC) parameters angle of friction ${\phi}$ and cohesion c for given slopes. In order to present the proposed charts, we firstly present the derivation of the theoretical relationships between the MC parameters and ${\sigma}_{ci}/({\gamma}H)$ which is termed the strength ratio (SR). It is found that the values of $c/{\sigma}_{ci}$ and ${\phi}$ of a slope depend only on the magnitude of SR, regardless of the magnitude of the individual parameters ${\sigma}_{ci}$(uniaxial compressive strength), ${\gamma}$(unit weight) and H (slope height). Based on the relationships between the MC parameters and SR, charts are plotted to show the relations between the MC parameters and HB parameters. Using the proposed charts can make a rapid estimation of shear strength of rock masses directly from the HB parameters, slope geometry and rock mass properties for a given slope.

This study examined the dynamic response of a subsea pipeline under an impact load to determine the effect of the seabed soil. A laboratory-scale soil-based pipeline impact test was carried out to investigate the pipeline deformation/strain as well as the interaction with the soil-pipeline. In addition, an impact test was simulated using the finite element technique, and the calculated strain was compared with the experimental results. During the simulation, the pipeline was described based on an elasto-plastic analysis, and the soil was modeled using the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. The results obtained were compared with ASME D31.8, and the differences between the analysis results and the rules were specifically investigated. Modified ASME formulae were proposed to calculate the precise structural behavior of a subsea pipeline under an impact load when considering sand- and clay-based seabed soils.

Various geosynthetics used as liners or the Protection layers are installed in the solid waste landfill. The interface shear strength between geosynthetics installed at the slope of the landfill is a very important variable for the safe design of bottom and cover systems in the solid waste landfill. The interface shear strengths between (1) Geomembrane(GM)/Geotexile(GT) and (2) Geomembrane(GM)/Geosynthetic Clay Liner(GCL) were estimated by a large direct shear test in this study and were evaluated by the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. Especially, this research is focused on the effect of water which exists between geosynthetics because interfaces become easily wet or hydrated by rain, leachate and groundwater beneath liners. The strength reduction at large displacement and the effects of the magnitude of normal stresses and GCL hydration methods also investigated. The test results showed that the interface shear strength and shear behavior varied depending upon the magnitude of normal stresses, water at the interface, and hydration methods. Summary of secant friction angles, which could be used as reference values at a site where similar geosynthetics are installed, together with normal stress and hydration condition are presented.

Rockburst disasters pose serious threat to mining safety and underground excavation, especially in China, resulting in massive life-wealth loss and even compulsive closed-down of some coal mines. To investigate the mechanism of rockbursts that occur under a state of static forces, a stress model with sidewall as prototype was developed and verified by a group of laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. In this model, roadway sidewall was simplified as a square plate with axial compression and end (horizontal) restraints. The stress field was solved via the Airy stress function. To track the "closeness degree" of the stress state approaching the yield limit, an unbalanced force F was defined based on the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion. The distribution of the unbalanced force in the plane model indicated that only the friction angle above a critical value could cause the first failure on the coal in the deeper of the sidewall, inducing the occurrence of rockbursts. The laboratory tests reproduced the rockburst process, which was similar to the prediction from the theoretical model, numerical simulation and some disaster scenes.

본 논문에서는 해저 하이드레이트 퇴적층에서의 메탄가스 생산 과정에서 발생 가능한 생산정 주변 단층의 재활성화 가능성을 수치해석을 통해 평가하고 재활성화에 따른 미소지진 규모를 예측한 결과를 소개하였다. 가스 생산에 의한 하이드레이트 퇴적층의 유효응력 변화 및 역학적 변형은 TOUGH+Hydrate 코드와 FLAC3D 코드를 순차적으로 연계해석함으로써 시뮬레이션하였다. 단층면 재활성화 기준은 모어쿨롱(Mohr-Coulomb)법칙이 유효한 것으로 가정하였다. 30일간의 시험생산 해석 결과, 감압에 의한 공극압력 감소 및 유효응력의 증가가 주변 단층의 활성화를 일으킬 가능성은 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 초기응력 조건에 따른 활성화 가능성을 활동마찰각으로 평가한 결과로부터 수평응력에 비해 수직응력이 상대적으로 큰 정단층 응력조건(normal fault stress regime)에서 단층 재활성화 가능성이 상대적으로 큰 것으로 파악되었다. 또한, 정단층 응력조건에서 단층 재활성화에 기인한 유도지진 발생규모를 모멘트 크기(moment magnitude)로 추정할 경우, 모두 음(-)의 값을 보여 인간이 감지하지 어려운 수준의 미소지진에 해당하는 결과를 보였다. 다만, 본 해석은 하이드레이트 생산과정에서의 단층재활성화 가능성 평가를 목적으로 한 해석기법 구축 및 그 적용성을 소개할 목적으로 상당히 단순화된 지질구조 모델을 가정한 결과이므로, 향후 하이드레이트 시험 생산 및 상업 생산 지역에서의 상세 지질구조, 입력 물성 및 생산 설계조건을 반영한 해석에서는 상이한 결과를 보일 수 있을 것이다.

Semiconductor chip is bonded to the substrate by melting solder bumps. In general, the chip bonding is applied by a Reflow process or a Thermo-Compression(TC) bonding process. In this paper, we introduce a Laser Assisted Thermo-Compression bonding (LATCB) process to improve the anxiety of the existing process(Reflow, TC bonding). In the LATCB process, the chip is bonded to the substrate by irradiating a laser with a uniform energy density in the same area as the chip to melt only the solder bumps and press the chip with a Transparent Compression Module (TCM). The TCM consists of a fused silica header for penetrating the laser and pressurizing the chip, and a piezoelectric actuator (P.A.) coupled to both ends of the header for micro displacement control of the header. In addition, TCM is a structure that can pressurize the chip and deliver it to the chip and solder bumps without losing the energy of the laser. Fused silica, which is brittle, is vulnerable to deformation, so the header may be damaged when an external force is applied for pressurization or a displacement differenced is caused by piezoelectric actuators at both ends. On the other hand, in order to avoid interference between the header and the adjacent chip when pressing the chip using the TCM, the header has a notch at the bottom, and breakage due to stress concentration of the notch is expected. In this study, the thickness and notch length that the header does not break when the external force (500 N) is applied to both ends of the header are optimized using structural analysis and Coulomb-Mohr failure theory. In addition, the maximum displacement difference of the P.A.s at both ends where no break occurred in the header was derived. As a result, the thickness of the header is 11 mm, and the maximum displacement difference between both ends is 8 um.

2차원 응력조건에서 V형 암석노치의 파괴하중을 계산하는 해석적 절차를 slip-line 소성해석법 기반으로 개발하였다. 노치 주변의 암석이 소성상태에 있을 때 slip-line 중 하나인 α선이 암석 노치 면과 노치 외부 수평면을 연결한다는 사실과 α선을 따라서 변하지 않는 불변량이 존재한다는 이론적 사실이 해석적 절차 개발과정에서 핵심 아이디어로 활용되었다. 암석 노치 외부 수평면의 응력 경계조건을 알고 있으므로 불변량 방정식을 풀면 암석 노치 면에 작용하는 수직응력과 전단응력을 계산하는 것이 가능해진다. 노치 면에 작용하는 응력성분 값을 이용하여 쐐기에 의해 노치에 가해지는 파괴하중을 계산하였다. 개발된 해석적 절차를 적용하여 암석 노치파괴 해석을 수행하였다. 암석 노치의 파괴하중은 노치의 각도 및 노치 면의 마찰이 증가함에 따라 지수함수적 비선형성을 가지고 증가하는 특성이 있음을 해석결과는 보여주었다. 이 연구에서 개발한 해석적 절차는 쐐기형 노치 형성을 통한 암석균열 개시조건 연구, 암반 기초 지지력 계산, 암반사면 및 원형터널의 안전성 해석 등에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

댐이나 항만 건설시 재료로 사용되는 조립재는 입자크기가 일반 토사에 비해 매우 크기 때문에 이러한 재료에 대해서 전단시험을 수행할 때에는 가급적 대형 전단시험장치를 사용하는 것이 보다 정확한 결과를 얻기 위해 바람직하다. 대형 전단시험장치로는 일반적으로 대형 직접전단시험장치와 대형 삼축압축시험장치가 있으나 일반 토질시험장치와 비교해 제작과 보급, 운영 등의 어려움 때문에 현재까지 국내에서 두 시험장치를 사용하여 시험을 수행한 실적은 많지 않은 편이다. 본 연구에서는 댐 축조재로 사용되는 입경이 큰 조립재료를 대상으로 시료의 평균 입자크기와 공시체 크기, 연직응력(구속압) 조건 등에 차이가 있는 총 6개 case에 대해서 대형 직접전단시험과 대형 삼축압축시험을 수행하고 두 시험간 전단강도 특성의 차이를 비교하였다. Mohr-Coulomb 강도규준에 의한 전단강도를 기준으로, 대형 직접전단시험을 통해 산정된 전단강도가 대형 삼축압축시험을 통해 산정된 전단강도보다 전체적으로 크게 나타났으며 또한, 1,000kPa 수직응력에 대해 두 시험간 산정된 전단강도를 비교한 결과 대형 직접전단시험에 의한 전단강도가 대형 삼축압축시험에 의한 전단강도보다 약 10~70% 크게 나타나 입경이 작은 일반 토사와 비교해 그 차이가 크고, 대형 직접전단시험결과의 분산도가 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다.
