  • 공용상태 포장에서 노상토 및 보조기층 재료가 경험하는 구속응력 범위는 150㎪ 이내이다. 따라서 포장 시스템 설계 및 해석에서 낮은 구속응력 단계의 변형특성은 매우 중요한 물성치이다. 실제 포장시공 현장에서 노상토 및 보조기층 재료를 채취하였으며, 낮은 구속응력 단계에서 탄성계수에 대한 구속응력 영향 평가를 위하여 공진주시험(RC) 및 자유단공진주시험(FFRC)을 수행하였다. 흥미롭게, 낮은 구속응력 단계에서는 구속응력과 탄성계수의 관계가 대수공간보다는 선형공간에서 더욱 적합한 관계를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과를 근거로 낮은 구속응력단계에서 구속응력의 탄성계수에 대한 영향을 평가하는 새로운 모델을 제안하였다.

  • Landslides are often triggered by weak interlayers initiated in tailings dam foundations, and hazards gradually occur. This is serious for landslides in high tailings dams due to their high potential energy. Tailing samples with a fine-grained interlayer at a set dip angle were prepared. Consolidated undrained (CU) triaxial shear tests were carried out by using a high-pressure triaxial apparatus. The results were compared with the results under a low confining pressure. Four reasons were summarized for high tailings dams more prone to instability than low dams. The shear strength of the samples with dipping interlayers decreases with increasing dip angle. An obvious straight drop in the stress path after the peak occurs in samples with dipping interlayers at an angle of 60°. The effect of the interlayer on the mechanical behaviour of tailings is very sensitive, especially for the sample with a dipping interlayer at an angle of 60°. Shear slipping along the interlayer should be given more attention in tailings dams. Compared with the results under low confining pressure, the stress decreases continuously for the samples with dipping interlayers at large angles under high confining pressure. The positive pore pressure, which reduces the effective stress, occurred in tailings samples under high confining pressure. The residual strength of tailings under high confining pressure is smaller than that under low confining pressure. These factors increase the dam break risk and the disaster impact for high tailings dams.

  • Triaxial compression creep tests were performed on salt rock samples using cyclic confining pressure with a static axial pressure. The test results show that, up to a certain time, changes in the confining pressure have little influence on creep properties of salt rock, and the axial creep curve is smooth. After this point, the axial creep curve clearly fluctuates with the confining pressure, and is approximately a straight line both when the confining pressure decreases and when it increases within one cycle period. The slope of these lines differs: it is greater when the confining pressure decreases than when it increases. In accordance with rheology model theory, axial creep equations were deduced for Maxwell and Kelvin models under cyclic loading. These were combined to establish an axial creep equation for the Burgers model. We supposed that damage evolution follows an exponential law during creep process and replaced the apparent stress in creep equation for the Burgers model with the effective stress, the axial creep damage equation for the Burgers model was obtained. The model suitability was verified using creep test results for salt rock. The fitting curves are in excellent agreement with the test curves, so the proposed model can well reflect the creep behavior of salt rock under low-frequency cyclic loading. In particular, it reflects the fluctuations in creep deformation and creep rate as the confining pressure increasing and decreasing under different cycle periods.

  • Discharge capacity test is carried out to find out influencing factors on discharge capacity of prefabricated horizontal drains to improve weak dredged clay. Four representative prefabricated horizontal drains are selected based on the size of drain as well as the shape of core. Test is carried out for 10 days at each three level of confining pressure for all drains. Effects of elapsed time, confining pressure, hydraulic gradient and strength of filter and core on discharge capacities are examined. It is found that discharge capacity of drain, which has deformable core or has a possibility of squeezing filter into core, decreases more with time due to its low strength. As confining pressure increases, discharge capacity decreases due to the squeezing of filter into core.

  • 본 논문에서는 모래-실트 혼합토의 압력수준별 전단특성을 파악하기 위해 모래가 골격구조를이루는 세립분 함유율의 시료를 이용하여 저압 및 고압 삼축압축시험을 수행했다. 시험조건으로 세립분 함유율(0%, 9.8%, 14.7%, 19.6%), 공시체의 밀도(다짐에너지 $22kJ/m^3$, $504kJ/m^3$), 구속압(100kPa, 1MPa, 3MPa, 5MPa) 등을 변화시켜가며 각 조건에서 비소성 실트가 혼합토의 전단강도와 거동에 미치는 영향을 조사했다. 시험 결과, 모래의 골격구조에서 세립분 구조로 전환되는 전환 세립분 함유율은 구속압이 높을수록 감소하는 경향을 나타낸다. 구속압력이 높은 고압영역에서의 전단 특성은 구속압이 높을수록 조립자의 파쇄로 인하여 조밀한 모래에서도 느슨한 모래와 같은 경화, 수축거동을 나타내고 세립분 함유율이 증가함에 따라 전단강도 또한 증가하였다. 이러한, 비소성 실트가 혼합토의 전단특성에 미치는 영향은 실트도 모래와 같은 입상체이므로 소성점토 혼합토와는 상이한 거동을 나타냄을 알았다.

  • 본 연구에서는 지중 구속압과 말뚝-지반 경계면 전단 특성의 관계를 평가하기 위하여 기존의 실험결과와 강도감소계수가 적용된 해석 결과를 비교하였다. 유한요소해석에서 말뚝-지반 경계면의 전단거동 모사는 강도감소계수를 적용하였다. 해석 결과, 세립분 함유율이 증가할수록 구속압의 영향이 낮아지면서 최대 인발저항력은 감소하였다. 이 해석결과의 경향은 기존 실험 결과와 유사한 것으로서, 경계면 강도감소계수가 적용된 유한요소해석 모델은 적절하게 모사된 것으로 평가되었다. 경계면 강도감소계수의 변화를 분석한 결과, 구속압 50kPa의 경우에는 세립분 함유율이 증가할수록 경계면 강도감소계수의 증가가 확연하게 나타난 반면에, 구속압이 100kPa 및 150kPa의 경우에는 그 증가폭이 낮은 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 말뚝-지반 경계면의 전단 거동을 평가하기 위한 유한요소해석은 구속압과 세립분 함유율이 고려되어야 한다.

  • 지오튜브 공법은 해안지역 해안선 침식방지와 준설토 매립 호안사면의 뒤채움 필터석 대체용으로도 널리 활용되고 있다. 본 연구는 지오텍스타일에 의해 보강되어 제작된 공시체를 현장 상태를 고려하여 등방 구속압력 10kPa, 50kPa, 100kPa 이하로 최소화하여 연직응력 재하 시 변형 거동을 파악하였다. 시험결과 공시체의 연직 변형율 7%까지는 구속압(≤100kPa)에 관계없이 지오텍스타일 조직의 이완에 따른 인장력이 발휘되는 초기 Strain Hardening 영향으로 응력-변위 거동은 동일하였다. 변형율 7%이상부터는 구속압력이 작은 공시체는 재하 시 변형이 커서 보강 지오텍스타일의 인장 저항력을 증가시키므로 Strain Hardening에 의해 파괴 시 축차응력은 상대적으로 증가하였다. 파괴 후는 급격하게 Strain Softening에 의해 취성파괴형태를 나타내면서 저하되었다. 이는 일반적인 삼축압축시험에서 셀 압이 증가되면서 전단응력도 크게 증가되는 현상과 다르다. 지오텍스타일 등방구속시험에서는 지오텍스타일의 인장변위가 일차적으로 영향을 받기 때문에 탄성계수를 급격하게 증가시키는 탄성 거동을 나타내고 있다.

  • It is very important to determine the thermo-mechanical characteristics of the rock mass surrounding the repository of radioctive waste and the LPG storage cavern. In this study, Hwasoon-Shist. Dado-Tuff adn Chunan-Tonalite were the selected rock types. Temperature dependence of the mechanical properteis such as uniaxial compressive strength, tensile strength, Young's modulus was investigated by measuring the behaviour of these properties due to the variation of temperature. Also, the characteristics of strength and deformation of these rocks were examined through high-temperature triaxial compression tests with varing temperatures and confining pressures. Important results obtained are as follows: In high temperature tests, the uniaxial compressive strength and Yong's modulus of Tonalite showed a sligth increase at a temperature up to 300$^{\circ}C$ and a sharp decrease beyond 300$^{\circ}C$, and the tensile strength showed a linear decrease with increasing heating-temperature. In high-temperature triaxial compression test, both the failure stress and Young's modulus of Tonalite increased with the increase of confining pressure at constant heating-temperature, and the failure stress decreased at 100$^{\circ}C$ but increased at 200$^{\circ}C$ under a constant confining pressure. In low temperature tests, the uniaxial compressive and tensile strengths and Young's modulus of these rocks increased as the cooling-temperature is reduced. Also, the uniaxial compressive and tensile strengths of wet rock specimens are less than those of dry rock specimens.

  • This paper presents an investigation of the liquefaction characteristics and particle crushing of isotropically consolidated silica sand specimens at a wide range of confining pressures varying from 0.1 MPa to 5 MPa during undrained cyclic shearing. Different failure patterns of silica sand specimens subjected to undrained cyclic loading were seen at low and high pressures. The sudden change points with regard to the increasing double amplitude of axial strain with cycle number were identified, regardless of confining pressure. A higher cyclic stress ratio caused the specimen to liquefy at a relatively smaller cycle number, conversely producing a larger relative breakage $B_r$. The rise in confining pressure also resulted in the increasing relative breakage. At a specific cyclic stress ratio, the relative breakage and plastic work increased with the rise in the cyclic loading. Less particle crushing and plastic work consumption was observed for tests terminated after one cyclic loading. Majority of the particle crushing was produced and majority of the plastic work was consumed after the specimen passed through the phase transformation point and until reaching the failure state. The large amount of particle crushing resulted from the high-level strain induced by particle transformation and rotation.

  • A series of consolidated undrained triaxial tests for compacted short fiber reinforced clay were performed to increase the field applications, e.g. retaining wall, waste landfill, soft ground etc. of soil admixtures mixed with short fiber. Kaolin clay and three types of fiber were selected. To acquire reliable length of fibers, an auto cutter was used and a helical mixer was also used to avoid floating of fibers during mixing soil and fibers. It is found that reinforcing effect by aspect ratio and mixing ratio of short fiber decreases as confining pressure is increased. Reinforcing effect has a maximum value at the aspect ratio of 120 and the fiber content of 0.6%∼1.2% and low confining pressure like 50kPa.
