초록

단단한 모래 입자와 연약하고 작은 고무 입자로 이루어진 Engineered Soil의 변형률에 따른 거동을 분석하기 위한 시험을 수행하였다. 파의 전파, $K_{o}$ 재하, 삼축 시험을 이용하여 단단한 입상 재료에서 연약한 입상 재료의 전이 거동을 파악하기 위해 다른 모래부피비를 가진 Engineered Soil을 준비하였다. 미소, 중간 및 대변형 변형계수는 단단한 입자의 부피비에 따라 직선 관계가 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 대신 변형계수들은 모래부피비가 $sf=0.6{\sim}0.8$ 사이의 threshold 값을 초과할 때 급격하게 증가하였다. 이는 단단한 입자들의 침투 네트워크(percolating network)의 형성을 나타낸다. 내부마찰각은 단단한 입자의 부피비가 증가함에 따라 증가한다. 반대로, 첨두 강도에서의 축변형률은 연약한 입자의 함유에 따라 증가하며, 모래부피비가 60% 이하인 Engineered Soil에서는 첨두 강도를 관찰 할 수 없었다. 연약한 입자의 존재는 하중 체인(farce chain)의 형성을 바꾼다. 연약한 입자들이 높은 하중 전달 체인(chain)의 역할을 못할 지라도, 단단한 입자 하중 체인의 뒤틀림 방지의 중요한 역할을 수행한다.

Engineered mixtures, which consist of rigid sand particles and soft fine-grained rubber particles, are tested to characterize their small and large-strain responses. Engineered soils are prepared with different volumetric sand fraction, sf, to identify the transition from a rigid to a soft granular skeleton using wave propagation, $K_{o}-loading$, and triaxial testing. Deformation moduli at small, middle and large-strain do not change linearly with the volume fraction of rigid particles; instead, deformation moduli increase dramatically when the sand fraction exceeds a threshold value between sf=0.6 to 0.8 that marks the formation of a percolating network of stiff particles. The friction angle increases with the volume fraction of rigid particles. Conversely, the axial strain at peak strength increases with the content of soft particles, and no apparent peak strength is observed in specimens when sand fraction is less than 60%. The presence of soft particles alters the formation of force chains. While soft particles are not part of high-load carrying chains, they play the important role of preventing the buckling of stiff particle chains.
