일반적으로 도로구조물들은 포화상태라는 가정 하에 설계되고 있으나 실제 도로구조물의 재료인 입상지반재료는 대부분 불포화 상태에 존재하고 있다. 이러한 부분을 반영하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 다져진 입상지반재료를 대상으로 삼축압축시험과 함수특성곡선 시험 결과를 활용하여 다양한 조건에서의 불포화 전단강도를 추정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 비선형 모형을 활용한 2차원 유한요소해석을 실시하고 Mohr-Coulomb항복조건을 통하여 항복하중을 규명하였다. 또한, 입상재료의 항복하중에 대한 도로구조물 표층두께의 변화에 따른 영향을 확인하였다. 해석 결과 입상지반재료의 불포화토 이론을 고려하여 포장 혹은 비포장 도로의 지지력을 예측할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.

The bearing methods using pile of steel itself or reinforced concrete has been applying which in excavated depth was not deep. Also, the retaining wall as resisting structure to lateral force has taken weakness that the cure periods of concreted is long. Recently, with the material cost of steel, the application of cement is more increasing trend. In this study, the design methods of earth retaining and retention wall within the pre-casted concrete pile, PHC(Pretentioned spun High strength Concrete piles), was proposed which in the ground condition of excavated depth was not deep. The typical ground conditions, cohesive and non-cohesive soil, was considered as follows; soil strength as internal friction angle and UU(Undrained Unconsolidation triaxial test) strength, soil reaction and stabilization of structures. The application of design methods could be confirmed through the comparing and analyzing between measured data and utility software for the design.

액상화는 비배수조건에서 흙 강도의 갑작스러운 감소에 기인한다. 이러한 흙 강도의 손실은 과잉간극수압의 발현과 관련된다. 본 연구에서는 최대 및 최소간극비에 영향을 미치는 세립분 함유량이 조사되었다. 또한 포화된 실트질 모래에 대한 정적 및 동적 삼축시험의 결과를 제시하였다. 이들 시험은 액상화강도와 정적 및 동적 거동 특성을 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 시료는 새만금 유역에서 채취되었으며 공기건조되었다. 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 최대 및 최소간극비선은 유사한 경향으로 나타났다. 2) 최대 및 최소간극비는 20~30%의 세립분 함유량에서 얻어졌다. 3) 구속압력과 과압밀비가 증가할수록 액상화에 대한 저항은 증가하였다. 4) 불안정마찰각은 초기상대밀도의 증가와 함께 커졌다. 5) 유효응력비가 증가함에 따라 액상화에 대한 저항은 감소하였다.

The study of the mechanical behavior of rockfill materials under three-dimensional loading conditions is a current research focus area. This paper presents a microscale numerical study of rockfill deformation and strength characteristics using the Combined Finite-Discrete Element Method (FDEM). Two features unique to this study are the consideration of irregular particle shapes and particle crushability. A polydisperse assembly of irregular polyhedra was prepared to reproduce the mechanical behavior of rockfill materials subjected to axial compression at a constant mean stress for a range of intermediate principal stress ratios in the interval [0, 1]. The simulation results, including the stress-strain characteristics, relationship between principal strains, and principal deviator strains are discussed. The stress-dilatancy behavior is described using a linear dilatancy equation with its material constants varying with the intermediate principal stress ratio. The failure surface in the principal stress space and its traces in the deviatoric and meridian plane are also presented. The modified Lade-Duncan criterion most closely describes the stress points at failure.

Strain rate investigations are needed to calibrate strain-rate-dependent material models and numerical codes. An appropriate material model, which considers the rate effects, need to be used for proper numerical modeling. The plastic concrete cut-off wall is a special underground structure that acts as a barrier to stop or reduce the groundwater flow. These structures might be subjected to different dynamic loads, especially earthquake. Deformability of a structure subjected to dynamic loads is a principal issue which need to be undertaken during the design phase of these structures. The characterization of plastic concrete behavior under different strain rates is essential for proper designing of cut-off walls subjected to dynamic loads. The Cowper-Symonds model, as one of the most commonly applied material models, complies well with the behavior of a plastic concretes in low to moderate strain rates and will be useful in explicit dynamics simulations. This paper aims to present the results of an experimental study on mechanical responses of one of the most useful types of plastic concrete and Cowper-Symonds constant determination procedures in a wide range of strain rate from 0.0005 to 107 (1/s). For this purpose, SHPB, uniaxial, and triaxial compression tests were done on plastic concrete samples. Based on the results of quasi-static and dynamic tests, the dynamic increase factors (DIF) of this material in different strain rates and stress state conditions were determined for calibration of the Cowper - Symonds material models.

Cyclic triaxial and resonant column tests were conducted to understand the beneficial effects of various grouted sands on liquefaction resistance and dynamic properties. The test procedures were performed on a variety of grouted sands, such as silicate-grouted sand, silicate-cement grouted sand and cement-grouted sand. For each type of grout, sand specimen was mixed with a 3.5% and 5% grout by volume. The specimens were tested at a curing age of 3, 7, 28 and 91 days, and the results of the cyclic stress ratio, the maximum shear modulus and the damping ratio were obtained during the testing program. The influence of important parameters, including the type of grout, grout content, shear strain, confining pressure, and curing age, were investigated. Results indicated that sodium silicate grout does not improve the liquefaction resistance and shear modulus; however, silicate-cement and cement grout remarkably increased the liquefaction resistance and shear modulus. Shear modulus decreased and damping ratio increased with an increase in the amplitude of shear strain. The effect of confining pressure on clean sand and sodium silicate grouted sand was found to be insignificant. Furthermore, a nonlinear regression analysis was used to prove the agreement of the shear modulus-shear strain relation presented by the hyperbolic law for different grouted sands, and the coefficients of determination, $R^2$, were nearly greater than 0.984.

Soils exhibit creep behavior in which deformation and movement proceed under a state of constant stress or load. In Korea, weathered soil is abundant and occupies around one-third of the country. Weathered soil is visually described as a sandy or gravelley soil, but the behavior is quite different from the behavior of usual sand and gravel. In particular, the permeability of weathered soil is similar to sand, but the durability of settlement is similar to clay. Therefore analysis of time-dependent behavior of weathered soil is very important. In this study, Creep tests with weathered soils were carried out under constant principal stress differences of various stress levels which were experimentally obtained by triaxial compression test. The results of these tests showed the creep behavior for which the deformation increased with time, and the results are consistent with phenomenological model by creep equation of Singh-Mitchell.

This thesis is results of experimental works on the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnel. Centrifuge model tests were performed to simulate the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnels having cross sections of national road and subway tunnels. Model experiments were carried out with changing the cut slope and the slope of filling ground surface. Displacements of tunnel lining resulted from artificially accelerated gravitational force up to 40g of covered material used in model tests, were measured during centrifuge model tests. In model tests, Jumunjin Standard Sand with the relative density of 80 % and the zinc plates were used for the covered material and the flexible tunnel lining, respectively. Basic soil property tests were performed to obtain it's the property of Jumumjin Standard Sand. Shear strength parameters of Jumunjin Standard Sand were obtained by performing the triaxial compression tests. Direct shear tests were also carried out to find the mechanical properties of the interface between the lining and the covered material. Compared results model tests estimation with respect to displacements of the lining.

순수전단강도를 추정하기 위해 150 세트의 삼축시험 결과를 분석하였다. 내부마찰각은 Hoek와 Brown의 파괴조건계수 m이 증가하는데 따라 비 선형적으로 증가하였으나 순수전단강도 비례계수 1c는 비선형적으로 감소하였다. 압축강도의 전단강도에 대한 비는 내부마찰각의 비에 역비례하였다. 전단강도는 m에 반비례하였으나 내부마찰각은 비례하였다. 또 단축강도는 c에 비례하였다. 회 귀분석의 해석에 있어서 전단강도가 m과 단축압축강도의 주요 영향요소로 나타났다. 전단강도의 비례계수는 RMR의 증가에 따라 비선행적으로 증가하였으나 내부마찰각은 선형적으로 감소하였다.

탄소성 유한 요소 해석은 기지의 변형률 증분에 대한 응력 적분을 필요로 하며, 탄소성 구성 모델의 경우 특별한 경우를 제외하고는 해석적인 응력 적분이 불가능하고 수치적인 방법을 필요로 한다. 이때 응력 수치 적분의 정확도가 비선형 유한요소해의 전체적인 정확도에 상당히 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 탄소성 구성 관계의 응력 적분을 위하여 외연적 방법중의 하나로서 Sloan이 제안한 단계분할 절차를 보완하여 안정적이고 정착한 응력 수치 적분법을 제시하고자 한다. 수정 오일러 절차에 따른 오차 조절의 기본 개념은 그대로 사용하고 오차를 평가하는 기준에 응력 수준이 영향을 미치는 단점을 보완하여 응력 수준에 관계없는 안정적이고 정확한 수치 적분법을 제시하였으며, 그 결과의 신뢰성을 삼축시험모사를 이용하여 검증하였다.
