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.

This paper presents the results of centrifuge model tests on the reinforced slope by pressure grouting. Tests were performed to investigate the reinforcing effect of grouting. In the tests, slopes of scale factor 1/10 were used changing the space and number of reinforcing bar. Test results are as tile follows; 1. The reinforcing effect increase rapidly with reinforcement area ratio at low value of reinforcement area ratio. 2. At high reinforcement area ratio the increase ratio of reinforcing effect decrease. 3. At same reinforcement area ratio, the reinforcing effect of double reinforcing bar was larger than the single reinforcing bar due to arching effect.

Piled raft foundation is a geotechnical composite construction to support the superstructure by pile-soil-raft interaction. General conventional design for piled raft doesn't consider the contribution of a raft. This is very conservative and requires more piles to satisfy the factor of safety. It is important to evaluate the load sharing features of piled raft. In this research, this characteristics of piled raft evaluated using both centrifuge and numerical modelings. The ultimate bearing capacity of piled raft foundation was also evaluated and predicted through comparisons of ultimate bearing capacity of single pile (SP), unpiled raft (UR), freestanding pile group (FPG) and piled raft (PR). $\xi_{pr}$ and $\eta$ were determined by centrifuge model tests to simply evaluate the ultimate bearing capacity of piled raft and bearing capacity of piled raft was predicted using the calibrated numerical model based on the centrifuge tests and laboratory tests data.

As the number of CFRD constructions increases, the necessity of an accurate assessment on its behavior also has been increasing accordingly. The performance of concrete faced rockfill dam (CFRD) under different water levels is greatly concerned by dam engineers and designers in the world. However, domestic research on CFRD design and construction has yet been insignificant. This study deals with three centrifuge model tests, mainly investigates the deformation of the concrete faced slabs with different face slab stiffness under different water levels. The prototype of a centrifugal model dam is half size of domestic CFRD dam. Detailed material preparation, model design, model set-up, model instrumentation and testing procedures are presented. In order to simulate the prototype concrete faced slab, three kinds of thin fiberglass plates with different thickness was adopted in the three model tests. The water level control facility was specially designed for this experiment to control the water level rise and drawdown during centrifuge flight. Although most of the results from the three model tests are satisfactory, it is also required that the centrifuge test results should be compared with those of numerical analysis and field measurements to analyze the centrifuge test results more in detail.

본 연구에서는 비교적 높은 초기 유효응력을 가진 지반구조물의 액상화연구에 사용된 동적 원심모형실힘결과를 이용하여 유효응력모델검증에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 원심모형 지반은 최대 유효응력 380kPa를 가진 충분히 포화된 느슨한 Nevada 모래 지반으로 구성되었으며, 수치해석에서는 1차원의 기둥형태로 가정하였다. 수치해석에 이용한 두 종류의 원심모형실험에서는 상당한 깊이(37m 및 22m)까지도 액상화가 발생하였으나, 깊이에 따른 액상화발생 경향은 경험적 액상화 평가방법과 상반된 결과를 보였다. 즉, 원심모형실험에서 계측된 과잉간극수압을 기준으로 해석하였을 때, 액상화는 모형지반의 윗부분에서 먼저 발생한 후 점차적으로 아랫부분으로 이동함을 알았다. 이와 같은 실험결과는 수치해석에서 비교적 잘 예측된 것으로 판단되었다 원심모형 지반의 초기 포화도와 원심력 증가에 따른 지반의 상대밀도 증가가 액상화모형실험의 수치해석에서 중요한 역할을 함을 알 수 있었다.

Numerical analysis were performed to investigate the stability and internal movement of tunnel located beneath the base of abutment of bridge according to the method of supporting tunnel. Two supporting methods of the multi-staged grouting method with steel pipes and the large diameter of pipe supporting method were used in the centrifuge model tests. The slip form of model lining, specially built to simulate the process of tunnel excavating under the condition of accelerated g-level, was used in the centrifuge model tests. Four centrifuge model tests were performed, changing the supporting methods of the multi-staged grouting method with steel pipes and the large diameter of pipe supporting method and the location of model abutment base of bridge. For internal displacement of tunnel, movements of the crown. The left and the right sides of spring line were measured during the proceeds of excavating tunnel in centrifuge model tests. Test results were compared with numerically estimated values of internal displacement of tunnel by using the commercially available FEM software of PENTAGON-3D. It was found that they were in good agreements and the large diameter of pipe supporting method was more stable than the multi-staged grouting method with steel pipes with respect to the internal movement of tunnel.

Basic soil property tests such as specific gravity test, grain size distribution test and organic content test with disturbed soil sampled from the site were carried out. The centrifuge experiment of model satisfying the required design criteria was performed under 50 of artificial accelerated gravitational force condition. The Centrifuge model experimental results were compared and analyzed with the current methods of estimating settlement based on the elastic modulus obtained from the results of odeometer tests and empirical methods from literature reviews.

본 논문에서는 제방 제체 하부지반에 투수계수 차이가 많이 나는 투수층(전석층)이 존재하는 김포제방에서 발생한 파이핑 현상을 모형실험 중 하나인 원심모형시험을 이용하여 모사하였다. 또한 원심모형실험과 동일 조건을 대상으로 수치해석을 수행하여 원심모형실험 결과와 비교하였다. 우선, 김포 제방을 바탕으로 원심모형실험을 수행할 단면을 결정하고, 간극수압계를 매설한 모형 제방에서 원심모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험을 통해 대부분의 물이 전석층으로 흐르는 것을 확인 하였으며 그로 인해 파이핑 현상이 발생하였다. 비디오 카메라 영상을 통해 기존의 연구 결과와 같이 전석층과 제내지 측 지표면과 거리가 가장 짧은 부분에서의 파이핑 현상을 확인하였다. 간극수압계를 통해 획득된 수압 분포 특성도 전석층으로의 물의 흐름으로 인해 파이핑 현상이 발생한 것임을 확인시켜주었다. 수치해석 결과 또한 원심모형실험 결과와 동일한 위치에서 파이핑 현상이 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. 원심모형시험을 통해 제방에서의 파이핑 현상을 모사하였으며 추후 제방 연구에서 원심모형시험을 이용하여 다양한 실험 및 현상을 평가, 예측 할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

This paper is the results of experimental and numerical works on analyzing the geotechnical engineering behavior and characteristics of excavated clay slope formed by the method of excavated replacement which is one of treatments in soft soil ground. For the centrifuge model tests, models of excavated clay slope were prepared by remolding the marine clayey soil sampled from the field. Tests were performed with changing the slope to investigate the behavior of them. On the other hand, numerical analyses were carried out to analyze the change of safety factor against instability of slope with time. Changes of pore water pressure, shear strength and displacement were also investigated. As results of centrifuge model tests with slopes of 1:1.5 and 1:3 using the confining body of simulating the effect of excavation, for the case of 1:1.5, slope failure occurred right after remove the confining body whereas relatively small displacements within the range of 3.2mm, implying to maintain the stability of slope, were observed for the case of 1:3 slope. From the results of numerical analyses using the software of PLAXIS to investigate the stability of slope after excavation, the minimum safety factor against slope failure was 1.28 for the case of 1:3 slope. The further researches in the future are required with considerations of build up of static pore water pressures during acceleration of centrifuge, depth of excavation influencing the behavior of the slope and permeability of the slope since excavation of the slope was not simulated well resulted from the limitations of apparatus at the stage of excavation during the centrifuge tests.
