This work is to study experimentally the measurment of pore air pressure according to rainfall in colluvium model and the characteristics of pore water pressure according to increasement of artesian ground water head. After modeling a geological feature of the Tertiary formation, the experiment was performed about sixty times on three kinds of soil. This experimental results showed the variation of pore water and pore air pressures with time, the change of void ratio and appling pressure head in the nonsaturated soil. It can be also expressed by the final pore water and the air reaction ratios and then formularizing the relationship between the permeability coefficient and the void ratio. In the results of this experiment, the patterns of the pore water pressure reaction are classified by the step-type and the wave-type, and the time-lag to reach final point of pore water pressure is in order sand, sandy silt and clayey sand.

한계상태이론은 정규압밀 및 과압밀시료에 대한 비배수 전단강도와 간극수압계수에 관한 식을 제안하고 있는데, 이 식은 3가지 상수를 포함하고 있다. 한계상태상수(M), 한계상태 간격비(${\gamma}$), 한계상태 간극수압계수(Λ)가 바로 그것이며, 이러한 상수는 각 모델 및 구하는 방법에 따라 그 차이가 발생함으로서, 전단강도 및 간극수압계수의 예측시 적지 않은 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 재 성형된 이암풍화토를 이용하여 등방삼축압축시험을 정규압밀과 과압밀로 나누어 실시하고 그 결과를 분석하였으며 이를 토대로 각 모델 및 방법에 따른 상수를 도출하였다. 그리고 이러한 상수의 차이가 비배수 전단강도 및 간극수압계수의 예측에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 시험결과 정규압밀시료의 경우 각 상수의 변화에 따른 비배수 전단강도 및 간극수압계수는 상당한 차이를 보였으며, 한계상태간격비와 Λ값을 강도비로부터 얻어진 값을 사용한 경우가 결과치에 가장 잘 근접함을 알 수 있었다. 과압밀시료의 경우 역시 이들 상수에 따라 전단강도의 변화폭이 크게 나타났으며 정규압밀과 마찬가지로 강도비에서부터 도출된 상수를 적요한 경우 실측치에 가장 근접하였다. 반면 간극수압계수의 예측시에는 상수에 따른 변화폭이 크지 않았으며, 특히 과압밀비가 증가할수록 각 상수에 대한 영향이 작게 나타났다.

This paper presents triaxial test (CIVC and CKOUC) results on normally consolidated deep sea clay samples. Based on the test results the pore pressure-strain relations for both isotropicaly and anisotropicaly consgidated samples are expressed with hyperbolic functions of the major princpal strain. The analysis of the difference in pore pressure behavior due to the anisotropy in consolidation stress is carried out with the effective stress pathos of CIVC and CKOUC and finds a factor which correlates the pore pressure of two types of test.

This study investigated the effects of stress and time history of overconsolidated clayey soils on pore pressure parameter, A. Laboratory tests were carried out under the conditions of both varying stress and time history. The stress history is classified into (i) rotation angle of stress path, (ii) overconsolidation ratio, and (iii) magnitude of length of recent stress path. The time history is divided into (i) loading rate of recent stress path and (ii) rest time. Pore pressure parameters are different both in the magnitude and trend with the rotation angle, depending on the magnitude of overconsolidation ratio but not in a trend. In addition, the pore pressure parameters have no effects on the magnitude of length of recent stress path except the level of initially small strain, while loading rates of recent stress path have effects on it. Finally, the pore pressure parameters of overconsolidated clays increase with the existence of the rest time, until either the deviator stress exceeds 70 kPa or the strain up to 0.1%.

Cone factors, $N_{kt}$, $N_{ke}$ and $N_{{\Delta}u}$, for estimating undrained shear strength of Busan clay are evaluated in this study. For this, CPTu and field vane tests are performed for clay layers at two sites, Busan new-port and Noksan, and also $CK_0U$ triaxial tests with undisturbed samples taken from the same site are carried out. From experimental results, it is observed that the undrained shear strengths of clay increases with depth, and the undrained shear strength obtained from triaxial tests is 1.5 times higher than one obtained from vane tests. The normalized undrained shear strengths of Busan clay from triaxial and vane shear tests are $0.26{\sim}0.44$ and $0.20{\sim}0.23$, respectively. In CPTu results, cone tip resistance ($q_c$) and pore pressure ($u_2$) linearly increase with depth, and the pore pressure ratio ($B_q$) of Busan clay is within the range of $0.3{\sim}1.0$. The cone factors, which are determined by comparing the CPTu results with $CK_0U$ triaxial and vane shear test results, are found to be $5{\sim}20$ and $10{\sim}35$, respectively. It is also observed that the cone factors are inversely proportional to the pore pressure ratio. From this, the prediction methods for evaluating the cone factors of Busan clay are developed.

수리구조물에 관한 기존 연구들은 대부분 기능성과 안정성 측면에서 본체에 작용하는 유체력에 대한 안정성에 주안점을 두고 있다. 수리구조물 상·하류의 수위차에 기인한 기초지반내의 흐름 및 간극수압 변화는 하천 구조물의 안정성을 연구하는데 매우 중요하다. 해양에서는 파랑하중에 의한 과잉간극수압이 액상화를 발생시켜 해안구조물의 안정에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되며, 이에 관련 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 반면, 하천구조물 주변 지반의 흐름 및 간극수압 뿐 아니라, 액상화에 관한 연구는 아직 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수리구조물 주변의 유동 및 와동 현상 뿐 아니라, 수위차에 따른 지반 내부 유동장과 간극수압에 관한 특성을 분석하기 위해 유체-구조물-지반 비선형 상호작용을 고려할 수 있는 수치수조를 새롭게 제안하였다. 그리고 제안하는 수치수조의 타당성 및 유효성을 검증하기 위해 기존 실험값과 비교·검토를 수행하였고, 그 결과는 거의 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 이 수치수조에 다양한 입사조건(상·하류 수위차)에 적용하여 유체-구조물-지반의 비선형동적상호간섭 해석을 수행하였다. 최종적으로 수치수조에서 측정한 구조물 주변의 유동, 와동, 수위로부터 수리특성을 논의하였다. 게다가 지반내의 흐름과 간극수압을 측정하여 상·하류 수위차가 수리구조물의 안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석할 수 있었다.

This present study implemented a rainfall simulation system, and performed simulation and numerical analysis according to rainfall and slope conditions using a model slope built with weathered granite soil. Extensive analysis were conducted on the characteristics of changes in volumetric water content and pore water pressure measured in the simulation, and compared them with the results of numerical analysis. It took longer for the volumetric water content to reach the limit when rainfall intensity was high and the slope was steep and shorter when rainfall intensity was low and the slope was gentle. When rainfall intensity was low and the duration of rainfall was short, negative pore water pressure was higher and the time for restoration was shorter. On the contrary, when rainfall intensity was high and the duration of rainfall was long, it took a longer time to restore negative pore water pressure. In the results of rainfall simulation and numerical analysis, the distribution of volumetric water content and pore water pressure was similar between the two. However, the volumetric water content was different by up to 5%, and pore water pressure by up to 3kPa.

In this research, an analytical solution for the coefficient of permeability of soils during consolidation is suggested. The pore pressure and the flow rate measurements at different locations during consolidation are utilized. The void ratio and volume compressibility of soils under consolidation are also estimated. A large consolidation testing device, possible in both vertical and radial drainage is designed and manufactured. And consolidation test with kaolinite soils were performed under radially inward drainage direction. Pore pressures in varying radial distances and flow rate with time were measured as well as vertical deformations. From the test results, the changes of permeability, volume compressibility and void ratio under consolidation and their spatial variations are estimated. Thus the proposed solution is verified by comparing with the experimentally estimated test results. In addition, it is confirmed that permeability, void ratio and volume compressibility decrease as consolidation and loading steps progress. Also, these soil characteristics increase with radial distant from drainage boundary, where lowest values observed, and slightly decrease as approaching undrained boundary.

An existing numerical model fo r determining the wave field and pore pressures inside rubble mound breakwater was reformulated here especially to enhance the predictability of interior pore pressures. The pore pressures strongly depend on the nonlinear wave field occurring along frontal slope which is very difficult to be numerically reproduced. In the present study, hence, the amplitude and phase informations of wave pressures along the frontal slope are obtained directly through a hydraulic model test and are incorporated into the numerical model. The interior wave field is analyzed by a boundary element method, and thereby the pore pressures are determined. It was found that the calculated pore pressures agreed quite well with experimental values.

Increases in excess pore water pressure without change of surcharge load were reported in clay underneath embankment at Berthierville and Olga sites after the end of construction. These abnormal phenomena could not be explained by classical consolidation theory. This paper presents a nonlinear viscoplastic model to interpret an increase in pore water pressure on natural clay, The proposed model can consider the combined processes of pore water pressure dissipation according to Darcy's law and pore water pressure generation due to viscoplastic strain, as well as time-dependent viscoplastic behaviour and strain rate dependency of preconsolidation pressure. The calculated results using numerical analysis are compared with measured ones under embankments built on soft clay at Berthierville and Olga in Quebec, Canada. It may be possible to explain the phenomenon of excess pore water pressure increase after the end of construction using the proposed nonlinear viscoplastic model.
