지하암반에서 지하구조물을 구축하는 경우, 지하구조물의 안정성 확보를 위한 굴착, 지보 및 대책공법은 현지 암반응력의 크기 및 방향에 큰 영향을 받게 된다. 따라서 터널과 같은 지하구조물의 설계와 안정성 해석에 있어서 현지 암반응력의 분포특성을 고려하는 것은 대단히 중요한 문제라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 암반응력을 고려한 터널설계 사례를 통하여 합리적이고, 안정적인 지하구조물 설계 방안에 대하여 고찰하고자 하였다 이를 위하여 Q-System에 의한 암반분류시 입력변수인 응력저감계수(SRF) 평가과정 및 표준지보패턴 설계 사례에 대하여 검토하였다. 또한 터널안정성 해석시 측압계수 크기 및 주응력 방향을 변수로 한 수치해석을 수행하여 터널 안정성 해석시 개선사항에 대하여 제안하였다.

Underground tunnelling is one of the sustainable construction methods which can facilitate the increasing passenger transportation in the urban areas and benefit the community in the long term. Tunnelling in various ground conditions requires careful consideration of the stability factor. This paper investigates three dimensional stability of a shallow circular tunnel in a layered soil. Upper bound theorem of limit analysis was utilised to solve the tunnel face stability problem. A three dimensional kinematic admissible failure mechanism was improved to model a layered soil and limiting assumptions of the previous studies were resolved. The study includes calculation of the minimum support pressure acting on the face of the excavation in closed-face excavations. The effects of the characteristics of the layers on the minimum support pressure were examined. It was found that the ratio of the thickness of cover layers particularly when a weak layer is overlying a stronger layer, has the most significant influence on the minimum tunnel support pressure. Comparisons have been made with the results of the numerical modelling using FLAC3D software. Results of the current study were in a remarkable agreement with those of numerical modelling.

삼병렬 터널은 3개의 터널이 서로 나란히 배열되는 형태의 터널이다. 본 연구에서는 터널간 이격거리, 터널단면 형상, 지보조건, 지반조건 등이 서로 다른 7가지 삼병렬 터널 모형들에 대한 축소모형실험을 통하여 모형별 균열개시압력과 터널 주변지반의 변형거동을 조사하였다. 터널간 이격거리가 작은 모형일수록 낮은 압력 수준에서 필러의 파괴가 일어나고 터널의 내공변형량도 증가하여 터널의 안정성은 감소하였다. 터널단면의 형상이 아치형, 편평아치형, 사각형인 모형들 중에서 사각형 단면을 가진 터널의 안정성이 가장 작았으며, 천반곡률반경이 작은 아치형 터널이 편평아치형 터널보다 안정성이 우수하였다. 터널의 천장부에 모형 록볼트를 설치한 모형은 무지보 터널 모형에 비하여 균열개시압력이 클 뿐만 아니라 천단침하량도 적게 나타나 지보의 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 이방성 암반내 터널 모형은 등방성 모형과 매우 다른 변형거동을 나타내었으며, FLAC을 사용한 수치해석 결과는 모형실험의 결과와 정성적으로 부합하였다.

To give a solution for seismic stability of tunnel faces subjected to earthquake ground shakings, the pseudo-dynamic approach is originally introduced to analyze tunnel face stability in this study. In the light of the upper-bound theorem of limit analysis, an advanced three-dimensional mechanism combined with pseudo-dynamic approach is proposed. Based on this mechanism, the required support pressure on tunnel face can be obtained by equaling external work rates to the internal energy dissipation and implementing an optimization searching procedure related to time. Both time and space feature of seismic waves are properly accounted for in the proposed mechanism. For this reason, the proposed mechanism can better represent the actual influence of seismic motion and has a remarkable advantage in evaluating the effects of vertical seismic acceleration, soil amplification factor, seismic wave period and initial phase difference on tunnel face stability. Furthermore, the pseudo-dynamic approach is compared with the pseudo-static approach. The difference between them is illustrated from a new but understandable perspective. The comparison demonstrates that the pseudo-static approach is a conservative method but still could provide precise enough results as the pseudo-dynamic approach if the value of seismic wavelengths is large or the height of soil structures is small.

Based on the results of Han et al. (2016), in the failure zone ahead of the tunnel face it can be obviously identified that a shear failure band occurs in the lower part and a pressure arch happens at the upper part, which was often neglected in analyzing the face stability of shield tunnel. In order to better describe the collapse failure feature of the tunnel face, a new improved failure mechanism is proposed to evaluate the face stability of shield tunnel excavated in layered soils in the framework of limit analysis by using spatial discretization technique and linear interpolation method in this study. The developed failure mechanism is composed of two parts: i) the rotational failure mechanism denoting the shear failure band and ii) a uniformly distributed force denoting the pressure arch effect. Followed by the comparison between the results of critical face pressures provided by the developed model and those by the existing works, which indicates that the new developed failure mechanism provides comparatively reasonable results.

발파설계가 터널 굴착 시 암반손상 및 여굴에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 암반손상 및 여굴이 터널 안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석함으로서 발파설계가 터널 지보설계에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 도로터널의 일반적인 발파패턴에 대해 동적발파 수치해석을 시행하고 연속체 손상역학(continuum damage mechanics)의 손상변수(damage variable)를 이용하여 여굴과 암반손상 정도를 분석함으로서 터널 굴착면 주위의 암반손상 정도와 영역을 구분하였다. 또한 발파하중 같은 동적하중이 암반내를 전파할 때 변화하는 암반의 동적파괴기준에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 발파 암반손상 영향을 터널 안정성 해석에 반영하기 위하여 손상된 암반강성과 파괴기준을 적용하였다. 손상된 암반강성은 손상역학의 강도감소 모델을 이용하여 감소시켰다. 손상된 암반의 파괴기준은 암반강성과 지질강도지수의 관계식에서 도출한 손상된 지질강도지수(GSI$GSI_d$)를 적용함으로서 산출한 수정 Hoek-Brown 파괴기준을 적용하였다. 암반손상을 고려하여 터널안정성을 해석한 결과, 암반손상을 고려하지 않는 경우와 비교하여 소성영역 범위가 확대되고 변위량이 증가하였다. 이는 발파암반손상을 고려하지 않고 터널설계를 하는 경우 단기적 혹은 장기적으로 터널안정성이 위협받을 수 있음을 나타내었다.

It is a key issue in the tunnel design to evaluate the stability of the excavation face. Two efficient analytical models in the context of the limit equilibrium method (LEM) and the limit analysis method (LAM) are used to carry out the deterministic calculations of the safety factor. The safety factor obtained by these two models agrees well with that provided by the numerical modelling by FLAC 3D, but consuming less time. A simple probabilistic approach based on the Mote-Carlo Simulation technique which can quickly calculate the probability distribution of the safety factor was used to perform the probabilistic analysis on the tunnel face stability. Both the cumulative probabilistic distribution and the probability density function in terms of the safety factor were obtained. The obtained results show the effectiveness of this probabilistic approach in the tunnel design.

Tunnels have been an integral part of human civilization. Due to complexity in its design and structure, the stability of underground structures under extreme loading conditions has utmost importance. Increased terrorism and geo-political conflicts have forced the engineers and researchers to study the response of underground structures, especially tunnels under blast loading. The present study has been carried out to seek the response of tunnel structures under blast load using the finite element technique. The tunnel has been considered in quartzite rock of northern India. The Mohr-Coulomb constitutive model has been adopted for the elastoplastic behaviour of rock. The rock model surrounding the tunnel has dimensions of 30 m x 30 m x 35 m. Both unlined and lined (concrete) tunnel has been studied. Concrete Damage Plasticity model has been considered for the concrete lining. Four different parameters (i.e., tunnel diameter, liners thickness, overburden depth and mass of explosive) have been varied to observe the behaviour under different condition. To carry out blast analysis, Coupled-Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) modelling has been adopted for modelling of TNT (Trinitrotoluene) and enclosed air. JWL (Jones-Wilkins-Lee) model has been considered for TNT explosive modelling. The paper concludes that deformations in lined tunnels follow a logarithmic pattern while in unlined tunnels an exponential pattern has been observed. The stability of the tunnel has increased with an increase in overburden depth in both lined and unlined tunnels. Furthermore, the tunnel lining thickness also has a significant effect on the stability of the tunnel, but in smaller diameter tunnel, the increase in tunnel lining thickness has not much significance. The deformations in the rock tunnel have been decreased with an increase in the diameter of the tunnel.

The NATM(New Austrian Tunnelling Method) has been used for tunnelling since 1980's. But Collapses of tunnel under construction take place frequently, especially at urban areas because of adjacent buildings, underground conduits and traffic loads. This paper is a case study on the reinforcement method of subway tunnel at urban areas. In this study, ground inspection, geological investigation, laboratory test and numerical analysis by means of FDM program were carried out. The tunnel excavation was stopped because of over excessive brake of tunnel crown and shotcrete was installed to prevent deformation of adjacent ground as the temporary method. From the result of field survey and geological investigation, it is found that the soft weathered soil was distributed to the ground of tunnel invert unlike original investigation. The results of the analysis and the study show that the SGR(Space Grouting Rocket) method and Umbrella method can be applied for the stability of tunnel excavation and in addition the reinforcement of concrete lining is required for long-term stability of tunnel.
