Analysing the incompatible deformation and damage evolution around the tunnels in mixed strata is significant for evaluating the tunnel stability, as well as the interaction between the support system and the surrounding rock mass. To investigate this issue, confined compression tests were conducted on upper-soft and lower-hard strata specimens containing a circular hole using a rock testing system, the physical mechanical properties were then investigated. Then, the incompatible deformation and failure modes of the specimens were analysed based on the digital speckle correlation method (DSCM) and Acoustic Emission (AE) data. Finally, numerical simulations were conducted to explore the damage evolution of the mixed strata. The results indicate that at low inclination angles, the deformation and v-shaped notches inside the hole are controlled by the structure plane. Progressive spalling failure occurs at the sidewalls along the structure plane in soft rock. But the transmission of the loading force between the soft rock and hard rock are different in local. At high inclination angles, v-shaped notches are approximately perpendicular to the structure plane, and the soft and hard rock bear common loads. Incompatible deformation between the soft rock and hard rock controls the failure process. At inclination angles of 0°, 30° and 90°, incompatible deformations are closely related to rock damage. At 60°, incompatible deformations and rock damage are discordant due that the soft rock and hard rock alternately bears the major loads during the failure process. The failure trend and modes of the numerical results agree very well with those observed in the experimental results. As the inclination angles increase, the proportion of the shear or tensile damage exhibits a nonlinear increase or decrease, suggesting that the inclination angle of mixed strata may promote shear damage and restrain tensile damage.

A discrete joint finite element with joint surface degradation was developed to investigate the shear behavior of rough rock joint. Isoparametric formulation was used for facilitating the implementation of the element in existing Finite Element Codes. The elasto-plastic joint deformation model with the discontinuity constitutive law proposed by Plesha was applied to the element. The reliability of the developed finite element code was successfully testified through numerical direct shear tests conducted under both constant normal stress and constant normal displacement conditions. The result of the numerical direct shear test showed that the code can capture characteristic deformation features envisaged in the direct shear test of rough rock joint.

The dense graded asphalt concrete materials have been used for construction of pavement for a long time. The performance of asphalt concrete pavement, however, is influenced by various factors including high temperature and heavy axle loads which cause plastic deformation. The plastic deformation is one of the main functional disadvantages of flexble pavement. In this study, the semi-rigid pavement is considered to solve the problem. A set of experimental evaluation on semi-rigid pavement material has been coducted in laboratory to obtain it's physical properties and serviceabilities. The results of tests, including compressive strength, flexural strength, ravelling and wheel tracking, show that the semi-rigid pavement has a good mechanical properties and serviceabilities. Consequently, the semi-rigid pavement may be suitable to bridge deck, tunnel, slow lane and parking area pavements.

Direct shear tests were carried out on the rock joints and artificial discontinuities to investigate the influence of joint roughness on the shear strength and deformation behaviour. Single direct shear testing apparatus used in experiment was designed and manufactured. Its capacity is 200 tons of shear load, 20 tons of normal load and 50$\textrm{cm}^2$ of maximum shear area. Test samples were cement mortar with artificial discontinuity and sandstone with natural joint. Peak shear strength was increased as joint roughness or normal stress was increased, especially, linearly increased with roughness angle in cement mortar. If joint roughness angle was constant at low normal stress, shear strength was not affected by width and height of joint roughness in cement mortar. Peak shear strengths obtained from tests were larger than the values calculated by Barton's equation, and shear stiffness was increased with joint roughness coefficient.

Two types of deformations can occur on the cable during the monitoring of the rock displacement by the time domain reflectometry. One is the impedance model for tensile deformation, and the other is the capacitance model for the shear deformation. The former gives a response signal with a gradual change in the amplitude of the reflected voltage, meanwhile the latter produces a signal with a blunted spike. The resolution of the TDR can be improved to 0.125% using calibration crimps on the cable of 60 meters long. It is recommended that the diameter of the cable should be 18 mm at least in order to induce a better reflected pulse without any open-circuit. The actual TDR technique cannot characterize the type and the magnitude of rock displacement quantitatively. Systematic investigation of the TDR parameters, such as the exact of cable diameter, cable length, number of crimps, combination of shearing and extension, and environment of the TDR equipment, will be able to improve the resolution to 0.01 mm.

There is the freezing method as one of the ground improvement methods for excavating an underground tunnel, and due to its improved reliability, recently construction cases of applying this method into sandy soil grounds as well as cohesive soil grounds of cities have been reported. But, applying the freezing method into cohesive soil grounds could bring concerns of the expansion of the whole ground and the settlements from thawing of ground. In this study, the deformation strength characteristics of cohesive soil which received freezing and thawing hysteresis were examined using the sample collected from the site of cohesive soil ground applied with the freezing method and its structural characteristics were analyzed using an electronic microscope. And, the test with cohesive soil reconstituted from cohesive soil which received freezing and thawing hysteresis was carried out and its result was analyzed comparatively. The result of this test showed that the structure of natural clay was significantly changed due to freezing and thawing hysteresis.

Rock contains discontinuities at all scales. These discontinuities make rock behave in a complex way. This paper discusses a new approach to underground design based on the theory of rock fracture mechanics. The mechanism of deformation and failure of coal was studied by observing the distributions of length, orientation and spacing of the pre-existing as well as stress-induced cracks. Different types of crack information. The crack information is dependent on the scale used. The cracks propagate along the intersections of the pre-existing cracks, and both extensile and shear crack growth occur depending on the direction of the load relative to the bedding planes. An analytical model that takes into account both shear and extensile crack growth was developed to predict the nonlinear stress-strain behavior of coal including strain-hardening and strain-softening.

터널은 도로, 철도, 지하철과 같은 교통의 통로이자 수로, 전력구, 비축기지와 같은 특수목적을 위해 널리 활용되고 있으며, 터널의 사용 목적, 주변 지반조건 및 경제성에 따라 다양한 터널 형상으로 시공되고 있다. 이에 대해 기존 터널과 주변지반 및 구조물에 관한 연구는 꾸준하게 발표되었으나 단일 형상에 대해 터널굴착 시 주변 지반과 구조물의 거동을 분석한 연구들이 대다수이다. 터널의 붕괴사고는 지상 구조물의 붕괴사고 보다 막대한 인적, 물적 손실을 가져오기 때문에 터널 굴착 및 주변지반의 거동을 관측하고 분석하는 작업은 매우 중요하며, 단일 형상이 아닌 다양한 터널 형상에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, 본 연구는 trapdoor장치를 이용한 실내 모형시험을 통해 군말뚝 하부에 터널 정거장 굴착 시 주변지반의 거동을 측정하였다. 이때 터널 정거장 형상의 단면을 arch와 box 형태로 제작하였으며, 각 터널 정거장 형상 별 0.1B, 0.25B, 0.4B로 터널과 군말뚝 간 이격거리를 다르게 하여 다양한 조건에서의 지반거동을 분석하였다. 또한, 근거리 사진계측 및 이미지프로세싱 기법을 통해 지반의 거동을 관측하였으며, 유한요소 수치해석을 통해 실내 모형시험, 근거리 사진계측의 결과와 비교 분석하였다.

도심지 개착구간의 교통 및 환경적인 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 단면적 $200\;m^2$ 이상의 정거장터널이 퇴적암반 중에 계획되었으나 토피고가 13 m 이하인 설계조건에 직면하게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 패턴설계가 아닌 시공사례와 아칭효과 발현을 기초로 세 가지 요소 - 단면형상의 영향, 작용하중의 적용방법, 지보방안과 터널안정성분석 - 를 중심으로 설계방향이 논의되었다. 단면형상의 역학적인 영향에 기초하여 기본설계안과 연구단면안이 유도되었고, 지보방안은 터널천반부의 침하방지 및 역학적인 평형상태를 유지하기위한 파이프루프 보조공법과 NATM의 지보원리를 활용하였다. 두 설계안의 비교분석으로부터, 터널라이닝을 개착구조물의 연장선상에서 제약한 설계조건과 터널안정성 및 철근배근의 시공성에 대해 기본설계안이 적합한 방안임을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 동일한 건축한계로 아치부의 응력집중이 발생되지 않는 안정적인 응력분포를 나타내는 연구단면안의 분석결과에서 보듯이 향후 대단면터널 설계기술의 향상을 위해 단면형상의 영향과 이완하중의 적용방안이 심도 있게 검토되어야 함을 알 수 있다.
