In the present study, a method for measuring the relative density by the hardness measurement was proposed for sintered metal powder compacts. It is based on the indentation force equation, by which the relative density is related with the hardness, that was obtained by the finite element analysis of rigid-ball indentation on sintered metal powder compacts. For verifying the method, it was applied to prediction of density distributions in sintered and sintered-and-forged Fe-0.5%C-2%Cu powder compacts.

In this study, dynamic characteristics and liquefaction resistance characteristics of silica sand which is used to simulate sandy layer were conducted using the cyclic triaxial test according to the relative density difference. The difference in liquefaction resistance with the relative density was confirmed through the test results, which the relative density conditions were changed to 40%, 60%, and 80%, and the cyclic resistance ratio (CRR) curve of the silica sand was obtained. In addition, in order to examine the validity of the liquefaction resistance ratio (CRR) curve, artificial silica sand ground was created, and liquefaction potential was evaluated through the simple assessment method and the detailed assessment method, and the safety factors of each were compared.

지반을 보강 또는 지하수를 차단하기 위해 실시되는 그라우팅과 같은 공법이 제대로 효과를 발휘하기 위해서는 bulging 또는 sheet 형태의 그라우트체 형상의 조절이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 그라우트체 형상에 영향을 끼치는 인자를 찾기 위해 포화된 사질토지반에서의 그라우트 실험을 다수 실시하였다. 그라우트의 주입속도와 점성의 크기, 사질토의 상대밀도와 입도크기의 인자를 사용하여 실험을 사용한 결과, 비교적 느린 주입속도와 작은 상대밀도, 그라우트의 점성과 입자가 클수록 bulging 형상의 그라우트체가 형성이 되었다. 이와는 반대로 빠른 주입속도와 높은 상대밀도, 그리고 그라우트의 점성과 흙 입자가 작을수록 sheet 형상의 그라우트체가 형성이 됨을 확인하였다.

The results of a laboratory investigation for the influence of soil sties history, relative density of sand, pile surface condition depth and diameter on the behavior of piles in uplift are presented. Ultimate Uplife capacity depends not only on the relative density of sand but soil horizontal stress. The phenomena of critical depth can be explained by change of horizontal stress with depth. The value of Ktan tends to decreases with increasing pile diameter.

Forging process on sintered powder metals has been applied to produce automotive parts which require a high level of strength. In those parts, the measurement of relative density is very important because a low relative density density causes deterioration of strength. In the present study, an indentation force equation was proposed by which the result obtained from the hardness measurement is used to evaluate the relative density. This equation was applied to the prediction of the relative density in cylindrical specimens which were first sintered and then forged at the room temperature and at an elevated temperature. The experimental results were compared with predictions with and without consideration of the workhardening effect on the powder.

본 논문에서는 사질토 지반에 일정기간 계속하여 증가되는 단계별 하중이 작용할 때 발생할수 있는 지반의 밀도화 현상을 hyperbolic model의 매개변수 변화를 고려한 방법으로 유한요소법에 의한 수치적 침하해석에 반영해 주었다. 이를 위해 사질토의 상대밀도별 삼축압축실험을 실시하여 매개변수를 산정하였으며, 이를 토대로 각각의 상대밀도의 변화에 따른 매개변수값을 Lagrange의 다항식 수치보간법으로 프로그램에 반영하였다. 또한 유한요소프로그램 내에서 요소의 체적을 계산하고 체적의 변화를 상대밀도 개념으로 접근함으로서 지반의 밀도화를 프로그램내에서 모사할수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 해석 프로그램에 의한 지반의 밀도화현상의 모사 결과를 실내 모형기초재하실험에 의하여 비교 분석해 본 결과 기존의 해석 보다 향상된 결과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

An experimental study has been conducted by using the Cyclic Direct Simple Shear apparatus to evaluate the influence of average and cyclic shear stresses on the undrained shear failure behavior of marine silty sand considering various relative densities. The obtained results show that despite using different relative densities, similar trends were gained in the cyclic shear deformation. Moreover, the cyclic shear deformation is affected mainly by the average and cyclic shear stresses. The number of cyclic loads for failure is significantly affected by the cyclic shear stress ratio and relative density, and is less affected by the average shear stress ratio. The proposed three-dimensional stress-dependent failure contour can be used effectively to assess the soil shear strength considering various relative densities in the design of foundation used for offshore structures.

Loading tests were carried out for model geocell to study the reinforcing effect by variation of tensile strength, cell height, soil density and embedded depth of geocell. From the result, it could be seen that the ultimate bearing capacity of the geocell system was influenced rather by the connection strength than by the tensile strength of geocell material. Bearing capacity increased with the increase of height to width ratio of geocell for the same relative density, strength and embedded depth. And the bearing capacity ratio(BCR) was higher at low relative density of sand than that of high relative density. The increase of bearing capacity was higher at geocell with high tensile strength than that of low tensile strength. And the influence was clear at higher relative density. Also the BCR was higher at shallow embedded depth of geocell. Without consideration of tensile strength of material, the application of bearing capacity formula suggested by Koerner seems not suitable for the special case with low tensile strength of geocell material.

Pile foundations used as offshore support structures are dominantly subjected to cyclic lateral loads due to wind and waves. In this study, a series of cyclic lateral load tests were performed on a pre-installed aluminum flexible pile in sandy soil with three different relative densities (40%, 70% and 90%) in order to evaluate the effect of cyclic lateral loads on lateral load capacity of a pile. The cyclic lateral loads increased the lateral load capacity of a pile at 40% relative density, whereas they decreased it at 70% and 90% relative densities. This can be explained by the fact that the cyclic lateral loads slightly densified the surrounding soil in relatively loose sand (40%), while the surrounding soil was disturbed in relatively dense sand (70% and 90%). These effects were more obvious as the cyclic lateral load amplitude increased, being independent with the saturation. Also, from the test results, an empirical equation for the lateral load capacity of a cyclic laterally loaded pile in sandy soil was developed in terms of relative density of the soil and the cyclic lateral load amplitude.
