Sand drain as a vertical drainage is widely used in soft ground improvement. Recently, sand, the principal source of sand drain, is running out. The in-situ tests were carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. In-situ tests area was divided into two areas by material used. One is Sand Drain(SD) and Sand Compaction Pile(SCP) area, the other is Gravel Drain(GD) and Gravel Compaction Pile(GCP) area. Both areas were monitored to obtain the information on settlement, pore water pressure and bearing capacity by measuring instruments for stage loading caused by embankment. The results of measurements were analyzed, The clogging effect was checked at various depth in gravel column after the test. According to the test results, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel pile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. It is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material. Gravel is considered to be a better material than sand for bearing capacity, and it is found that bearing capacity is larger when gravel is used as a gravel compaction pile than as a gravel drain.

In this paper, a dynamic response mapping model of the wheel-rail system is established by using the support vector regression (SVR) method, and the hierarchical safety thresholds of the subgrade void are proposed based on the reliability theory. Firstly, the vehicle-track coupling dynamic model considering the subgrade void is constructed. Secondly, the subgrade void area, the subgrade compaction index K30 and the fastener stiffness are selected as random variables, and the mapping model between these three random parameters and the dynamic response of the wheel-rail system is built by using the orthogonal test and the SVR. The sensitivity analysis is carried out by the range analysis method. Finally, the hierarchical safety thresholds for the subgrade void are proposed. The results show that the subgrade void has the most significant influence on the carbody vertical acceleration, the rail vertical displacement, the vertical displacement and the slab tensile stress. From the range analysis, the subgrade void area has the largest effect on the dynamic response of the wheel-rail system, followed by the fastener stiffness and the subgrade compaction index K30. The recommended safety thresholds for the subgrade void of level I, II and III are 4.01㎡, 6.81㎡ and 9.79㎡, respectively.

The relationship between hydrologic processes and scale is one of the more complex issues in surface water hydrology. Disturbances that change vegetation and/or soil properties have been known to subsequently alter the landscape. The primary objective of this study was to estimate the grain size of soils with different properties from the hydraulic conductivity using pedotransfer functions. The double ring infiltrometer method was used to measure the vertical hydraulic conductivity of three soils under different soil planar surface treatments. Seven selected pedotransfer functions were used to estimate percentile diameters and the reduction in infiltration caused by compaction was misconstrued as caused by changes in percentile diameter. Results showed that compaction on the sandy loamy foot paths reduced the hydraulic conductivity by about 50%. The study showed that perceptual models of infiltration processes and appreciation of scale problems in modeling are far more sophisticated than normally presented in texts. Hydraulic measurement methods are still relevant and will provide significant information of grain size of the soils.

The paper is to show the behavior of composit ground which is installed with sheet pile in soft soil improved by sand compaction pile. The results of load-settlement relationship, earth pressure, stress concentration characteristics, and final water content were obtained by centrifuge model test. Two cases of tests, installation of sheet pile on the corner and both side of the loading plate for the improved SCP ground which was designed twice of the footing width, were performed for the tests under the vertical and horizontal loading and both side of corner. Finite element program(CRISP) for sand compaction pile using elasto-plastic model and numerical analysis for soft soil using modified cam-clay constitutive equation were compared and analized with the results of model tests. The result of analysis show the increased bearing capacity of soil after, SCP and sheet pile was installed.

Centrifuge model tests were performed to find appropriate equations proposed previously of estimating the bearing capacity of the composite clayey soil reinforced with sand compaction pile. Model tests were carried out with changing the replacement ratio of SCP (20%, 40%, 70%), contents of fine materials (5%, 10%, 15%) and ratio of treated width to loading width (1B, 2B, 3B). Test results about bearing capacity of the composite ground were obtained by performing the surcharge load tests with measurements of applied loads and vertical displacement. Bearing capacities against bulging and shear failures were estimated by the existing equations. As results of comparing the estimated bearing capacity with experimental values the bearing capacities estimated by Greenwood's equation (1970) for bulging failure mode were similar to the test results.

There are concern on possible health effects from exposure to electric and magnetic fields. One reflection of this concern is the considerable controversy, delay, and cost increases involved in the construction of utility lines and facilities. To meet such challenges, in this paper we investigated magnetic fields reduction techniqies such as general compaction, in-span compaction, cruciform, vertical, 3way splits phase, and 4way splits phase. As results, we found 1 spacer in-span compaction was appropriate in Korea in view of effectiveness and economy.

High velocity compaction (HVC) is a production technique with capacity to significantly improve the mechanical properties of powder metallurgy (PM) parts. Investigated here are green body data such as density, tensile strength, radial springback, ejection force and surface flatness. Comparisons are performed with conventional compaction using the same pressing conditions. Cylindrical samples of a pre-alloyed water atomized iron powder are used in this experimental investigation. The HVC process in this study resulted in a better compressibility curve and lower ejection force compared to conventional quasi static pressing. Vertical scanning interferometry measurements show that the HVC process gives flatter sample surfaces.

This paper is experimental and numerical research results of performing centrifuge model tests to investigate the geotechnical engineering behavior of slag compaction pile as a substitute of sand compaction pile. In order to find the geotechnical engineering characteristics of the soft clay and the slag used in centrifuge model experiments, basic soil property tests, consolidation test, permeability tests and triaxial compression tests were performed. For centrifuge model tests, slags with changing relative density were used and their bearing capacity, stress concentrations in between pile and soft clay, settlement characteristics, and failure modes were investigated. As a results of centrifuge model tests, it was found that the bearing, capacity of model was increased with increasing density of slag pile and general shear failures were occured. Miniature soil pressure gauges were installed on model pile and soft ground respectively and thus vertical stress acting on them were measured. Stress concentration ratio was found to be in the range of 2.0~3.0. Bearing capacity obtained from the model test with slag was greater than that from the model test with a sand having the identical layout to each other. Thus it was confirmed the slag was an appropriate substitution of pile for sand.

기초사석 위에서 진동하중을 받는 진동다짐판의 침하는 일시적인 진폭과 소성침하로 나타낼 수 있다. 최대 진동하중이 사석의 지지력을 초과하지 않는 한, 소성침하량은 극한값으로 수렴하며 궁극적으로 정상적인 진동을 한다. 이러한 진동다짐의 침하거동에 대한 실내실험은 수평방향이 구속된 시료에 대하여 진동하중이 전체면적에 작용하도록 수행되었거나 진동대에 시료를 놓고 실험을 수행한 것이 대부분이다. 그러나 실제 현장에서는 진동하중이 기초사석 표면적의 일부에만 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장조건에 맞게 쇄석에 진동하중을 작용토록 하였다. 쇄석에 대한 진동다짐실험에 따르면 전체 침하량의 약 90%가 2분 이내에 발생하며, 정적 및 동적응력을 포함한 진동응력 수준이 증가할수록 침하는 증가하였다. 진동다짐시, 진동다짐수, 진폭, 침하량, 재하폭, 진동응력의 상관관계를 나타내는 식을 제안하였다.

본 연구에서는 조립질 말뚝으로 개량된 점토지반의 응력변화 및 응력분담비의 변화를 파악하기 위하여 말뚝의 종류(GCP, SCP)와 하중재하조건, 치환율을 변화시키면서 원심모형실험을 수행하였다. 강성재하실험 결과, 동일 치환율에서 점토지반에서의 연직응력은 유사한 반면, 말뚝상부에서의 연직응력은 GCP로 보강한 경우가 SCP보다 크게 나타났다. 또한, GCP 및 SCP의 치환율이 증가할수록 평균 응력분담비가 거의 비례적으로 증가하였고, GCP로 개량된 경우 평균 응력분담비가 SCP로 개량된 지반에 비해 크게 평가되었다. 또한 연성재하 실험결과 쇄석다짐말뚝 및 모래다짐말뚝의 치환율이 40%인 경우가 가장 큰 응력분담비를 나타내었으며, GCP로 개량된 경우의 평균 응력분담비가 SCP를 설치한 경우보다 약간 크게 나타났다.
