분간 병렬 시스템에서 사용되는 배치 작업 스케줄링 기법으로 잘 알리진 것은 Gang Scheduling과 Backfilling Scheduler가 있다. 특히 IBM SP 시스템에서 주로 사용되는 작업 스케줄러인 LoadLeveler 최신 버전에서는 이전 버전에서도 지원하였던 Backfilling Scheduler 뿐만 아니라 Gang Scheduling 기법을 새롭게 지원하게 되었다. 이에 따라 KISTI 슈퍼컴퓨팅센터에서는 슈퍼컴퓨터 3호기로 신규 도입된 IBM p690 시스템에서 LoadLeveler의 Gang Scheduling 혹은 Backfilling Scheduler 중의 한 가지 기법을 선택하여 서비스 레벨 클래스를 구현하고자 하였다. 이러한 노력의 일환으로 두 가지 스케줄링 기법을 테스트 및 분석하였다. 이에 따르면 Gang Scheduler가 개념상 여러 가지 장점을 가지므로 Backfilling Scheduler에 비하여 서비스 레벨 클래스 구성에는 용이하지만, 불완전한 구현 및 특히 CPU Utilization이 저하되는 심각한 문제점을 가지고 있었다. 따라서 Backfilling Scheduler를 통한 제한적인 서비스 레벨 클래스를 구성하기로 결론지었다.

Based on the movement characteristics of overlying strata with gangue backfilling, the compression test of gangue is designed. The deformation characterristics of gangue is obtained based on the different Talbot index. The deformation has a logarithmic growth trend, including sharp deformation stage, linear deformation stage, rheological stage, and the resistance to deformation changes in different stages. The more advantageous Talbot gradation index is obtained to control the surface subsidence. On the basis of similarity simulation test with gangue backfilling, the characteristics of roof failure and the evolution of the supporting force are analyzed. In the early stage of gangue backfilling, beam structure damage directly occurs at the roof, and the layer is separated from the overlying rock. As the working face advances, the crack arch of the basic roof is generated, and the separation layer is closed. Due to the supporting effect of filling gangue, the stress concentration in gangue backfilling stope is relatively mild. Based on the equivalent mining height model of gangue backfilling stope, the relationship between full ratio and mining height is obtained. It is necessary to ensure that the gradation of filling gangue meets the Talbot distribution of n=0.5, and the full ratio meets the protection grade requirements of surface buildings.

This paper presents results of a numerical analysis performed on a corrugated steel plate (CSP) bridge during a backfilling process. The analysed bridge structure was a box culvert having a span of 12315 mm as well as a clear height of 3550 mm. Obtained calculation results were compared with the experimental ones. The paper is presented with the application of the Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua (FLAC) program based on the finite differences method (FDM) to determine behaviour of the soil-steel bridge structure during backfilling. The assumptions of a computational 2D model of soil-steel structure with a non-linear interface layer are described. Parametric analysis of the interface element is also given in order to receive the most realistic calculation results. The method based on this computational model may be used with large success to design calculations of this specific type of structure instead of the conventional and fairly inaccurate analytical methods. The conclusions drawn from such analysis can be helpful mostly for the assessment of the behaviour of steel-soil bridge structures under loads of backfilling. In consideration of an even more frequent application of this type of structure, conclusions from the conducted analysis can be generalized to a whole class of similar structural bridge solutions.

In the licensing application for the deep geological disposal system of high-level radioactive waste in Finland, the disposal tunnel backfilling has been changed from the block/pellet (for the construction) to the granular type (for the operation). Accordingly, for establishing the design concept for backfilling, it is necessary to examine applicability to the domestic facility through analyzing problems of the existing method and improvements in the alternative design. In this paper, we first reviewed the principal studies conducted for changing the backfill method in the licensing process of the Finnish facility, and identified the expected problems in applying the block/pellet backfill method. In addition, we derived the evaluation factors to be considered in terms of technical and operational aspects for the backfilling solution, and then conducted a comparative analysis for two types of backfill methods. This analysis confirmed the overall superiority of the design change. It is expected that these results could be utilized as the technical basis for deriving the optimum design plan in development process of the Korean-specific deep disposal facility. However, applicability should be reviewed in advance based on the latest technical data for the detailed evaluation factors that must be considered for selecting the backfilling method.

The most tunnel damage such as cracks or leakage which exist in tunnel lining commonly, is caused by the cavities where exist behind the tunnel lining, through the tunnel safety inspections. These cavities were analysed to affect a stability of a running-tunnel seriously. This study is on the development of the controlled low-strength and flowable filling material which is able to apply to the cavity behind the tunnel lining. The major materials of backfilling developed are a crushed sand and a stone-dust which exists as a cake-state and is a by-product obtained in the producting process of aggregate. It is conformed with the design standard to the physical characteristics of backfilling. The backfilling material developed is designed to reduce the fair amount of cement. According to the designed compound ratio, it is carried out the laboratory tests such as a compressive strength and a chemical analyses and is applied to dilapidated old tunnel for an application assessment.

Deformation of caisson occurred during the backfilling behind the caisson and some caisson moved toward seaside. A series of site investigation were conducted to figure out various circumstances at site and also used to analyze the cause of deformation. The soil condition of backfilling is also investigated because dredged material was used as a backfill material. The friction angle of backfill is supposed to be lower than the estimated one which was used in design stage. To determine the cause of friction shortage, back analysis for sliding safety were carried out with considering the soil condition of backfilling. A remedial plan, re-rising and relocating a caisson with backfilling good earth after treatment of caisson rubble mound to achieve the safety for sliding was proposed as a best solution based on the back analysis results. Reform concrete structure including service gallery and crane rail was also considered with the remedial work to improve the cape line of caisson.

To improve the utilization rate of construction waste as mine backfilling materials, this paper investigated the feasibility of using recycled powder as mine paste backfilling cementitious material, and studied the pozzolanic activity of recycled construction waste powder. In this study, alkali-calcium-sulfur served as the activation principle and an orthogonal test plan was performed to analyze the impact of the early strength agent, quick lime, and gypsum on the pozzolanic activity of the recycled powder. Our results indicated that in descending order, early strength agent > quick lime > gypsum affected the strength of the backfilling paste with recycled powder as a cementitious material during early phases. The strength during late phases was affected by, in descending order, quick lime > gypsum > early strength agent. Using setting time and early compressive strength as an analysis index as well as an extreme difference analysis, it was found that the optimal ratio of recycled powder cementitious material for mine paste backfilling was recycled powder:quick lime:gypsum:early strength agent at 78%:10%:8%:4%. X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscope were used to show that the hydration products of recycled powder cementitious material at the initial stages were mainly CH and ettringite. As hydration time increased, more and more recycled powder was activated. It mainly became calcium silicate hydrate, calcium aluminate hydrate, etc. In summary, recycled powder exhibited potential pozzolanic activities. When activated, it could replace cementitious materials to be used in mine backfill.

Blind hydraulic backfilling is a commonly used technique for subsidence control of the strata over unapproachable waterlogged underground excavations. In this investigation model studies on all the three variants of this technique, namely, hydro-pneumatic or air-assisted gravity backfilling, pumped-slurry backfilling and simple gravity backfilling, have been carried out in fully transparent models of the underground excavations. On examination of the filling process, it was revealed that in all the three cases, the basic process of filling occurs by sand transport along one or more meandering channels. The relative influence of sand, water and air flow rates on the area of filling from a single inlet point and the hydraulic pressure loss per unit length were studied in details. In hydro-pneumatic backfilling process, the air bubbles while moving upward through the meandering channels provide an additional buoyant force over and above the available hydraulic head. In this way the area of filling from a single borehole may be quite large even at small flow rates of water. During actual field implementation the injected air, if not released completely from the rise side holes, may cause troubles by way of creating potholes on the surface. The pumped-slurry technique has shown its capability of filling a relatively larger area at faster rate, especially when high-volume, low-pressure method was selected. But simple gravity filling was also found to be equally effective method as slurry pumping, especially when flow rates were high. In the second and third method discussed above, examination of variations of injection pressure was also done and its relation with physical phenomenon was also attempted. Some empirical relationships were also developed using multivariate regression with a view to help the practicing engineers.

This paper presents the results of a laboratory study on the thermal conductivity of and(silica, quartzite, limestone, sandstone, granite and two masonry sands)-water mixtures used for ground heat exchanger backfilling materials. Nearly 260 tests were performed in a thermal conductivity measuring system to characterize the relationships between the thermal conductivity of mixtures and the water content. The experimental results show hat the thermal conductivity of mixtures increases with increasing dry density and with increasing water content. The most widely used empirical prediction models for thermal conductivity of soils were found inappropriate to estimate the thermal conductivity of unsaturated sand-water mixtures. An improved model using an exponential relationship to compute the thermal conductivity of dry sands and empirical relationship to assess the normalized thermal conductivity of unsaturated sand-water mixtures is presented.
