Abstract

The underground cavity known as one of the reasons of ground surface settlement is a discontinuous character. Therefore, it is limited to analyze with continuum analysis. In this research, The spherical underground cavity affecting the ground surface settlement is studied with Discrete Element Method. Ground properties, depth and diameter of the spherical underground cavity are chosen as factors of the spherical underground cavity and the effect of the each factor variations on the ground surface settlement is analyzed. Relative depth to the diameter of the spherical underground cavity is also studied. The result of the research suggests the basis of underground cavity collapse prediction and standard of support.

지표침하를 발생시키는 다양한 원인 중에 하나로 알려진 지하에서 발생되는 공동은 지반의 불연속적 특징이다. 그러므로 기존의 연속체해석으로 분석하기에는 한계가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 지표침하를 발생시키는 구형지하공동에 대해서 개별요소법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 지표침하에 영향을 미치는 구형지하공동의 특성인자로서 지반의 물성치, 구형지하공동의 심도 및 크기를 선택하였고, 각 특성인자들의 값의 변화가 지표침하에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하였다. 또한 지하공동의 직경에 대한 상대적 깊이와 지표침하의 관계를 분석하였고, 이를 통해 지하공동의 붕괴 예측 및 보강유무를 결정하기 위한 근간을 제시하였다.
