An excavation damaged zone (EDZ) is created by fracturing, excavation or stress redistribution of tunnels. In this zone the mechanical and hydraulic properties of rock are changed, which makes additional cracks and serves as a dominant pathway of groundwater flow. In this study, an assessment on an EDZ size was practiced by the measurement of the deformation modulus at the KAERI underground research tunnel (KURT), and the information was applied to the modelling analysis using FLAC2D software. The EDZ at KURT fell into the range of 0.6~1.8m and the deformation moduli of the EDZ generally correspond to about 40% of intact rock mass. With a consideration of the EDZ in numerical analysis, tunnel displacements increased by about 65% and the maximum principal stress decreased to 58% from the case without EDZ. The plastic zone of the tunnel was enlarged to the crown and invert zones of the tunnel within the range of the length of rock bolts. About 2% of the total tunnel displacement with EDZ was suppressed by the KURT support system. It is anticipated that the investigation of an EDZ can be used as an important and fundamental research for validating the overall performance of a high level waste disposal system.

A profile shifted gear system was analyzed to select the optimum profile shift coefficient, which minimizes gear teeth deflection. Contact force and deformation overlap were calculated by means of FEM and contact theory. The deformation overlap is suggested for an effective indicator to represent the whole deformation of gear system. The optimum value of profile shift coefficients was presented with respect to the deformation of gear system.

Wong 은 디지털 영상의 인증과 무결성을 위해 해쉬 함수와 암호화 알고리즘을 공간 영역상에서 적용하였다. 본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환 영역 상에서 Wong 의 방법을 토대로 하여 fragile 워터마킹 방법을 제안한다. 즉, 삽입할 워터마크를 LSB 만 아니라 웨이블릿 계수의 비트 플래인을 고정시키지 않고 삽입함으로써, 워터마크의 삽입이 LSB에 고정되는 Wong 방법의 단점을 보완하였다. 실험결과 약간의 변형에도 영상의 변형 유무와 변형된 위치를 확인할 수 있었다.

Anisotropy of stiffiness, from extremely small strains to post-failure strains, of isotropically consolidated air-pulviated sands in plane strain compression was studied by using the newly developed instrumentation for small strain measurements. Seven types of sand of the world-wide origins were tested, which have been extensively used for research purposes. Stress-strain relationships for a wide range of strain from about 0.0001% to 10% were obtained with measuring axial and lateral strains locally free from the effects of bedding and membrane penetration errors at the specimen boundaries. It was found that the maximum shear modulus Gmax was irrespective of the angle $\delta$of the $\sigma$1 direction relative to the bedding plane. However, the normalized Gmax was varied with the types of sand. Furthermore, the dependency of the strain and stress level on the stiffness increased as decreased.

The thesis is for gust factor needing when calculate the wind resistance design. For the gust factor, to the membrane structural model, carry through the wind tunnel test and the static load test. Therefore, at first through the tensile test of the fabric material, designate the material of the membrane structural model. Then, to saddle, wave, arch and point four kinds of basic shape membrane structural models, carry on the wind tunnel test, determine their dynamic load and distortion on lateral direction. Finally, according to distort situation of the membrane structure in the wind tunnel test, carry on the static load experiment outside of the wind tunnel, calculate static load which corresponding with distort. According to dynamic load and the static load, figure out gust factor of these kinds of basic membrane structure.

This paper presents the results of a study that was performed to evaluate the characteristics of deformation under repeated loadings in unbound geomaterials of pavements. Two important parameters, resilient and permanent deformation were estimated using the repeated load triaxial test. In addition, the effects of different stress state and environmental conditions with various materials were evaluated. Due to the locking mechanism and resiliency of unbound geomaterials, a consistent increase in permanent deformation on unbound geomaterials was observed and the asymptotic condition is slightly reached. In conclusion, the results show that selected models and parameters are satisfactory to predict permanent deformations after a certain number of loadings.

본 연구에서는 해성 점성토에 대하여 반복 삼축시험을 실시하고 응력-변형률 관계 및 유효응력경로 특성 분석을 통해 동적 변형 및 강도 특성을 조사하였다. 시험에 사용된 시료는 일본 도쿠시마현의 코마츠시마 항 인근에서 채취된 점성토이며, 반복 삼축시험으로 동적 비배수 삼축시험, 동적 비배수 삼축시험 후 동적 삼축변형시험, 다단계 동적 비배수 삼축시험, 동적 삼축 변형시험 등 4종류의 시험을 수행하고, 시험 주파수로서 0.1 및 0.01 Hz을 적용하였다. 본 연구 결과 0.01 Hz로 수행된 동적 삼축시험 결과는 0.1 Hz로 수행된 삼축시험 결과보다 평균유효응력의 감소량이 크며, 반복 하중은 해성 점성토의 구조적 약화를 초래하고 초기 거동시 발생하는 간극수압과 밀접하게 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 미소변형률 영역에서 등가 탄성계수는 시험 횟수가 증가함에 따라 점차 감소하며, 감쇠비는 점차 증가하는 것으로 보아 변형계수는 반복 하중으로 인한 전단변형률의 축척에 따른 변형률 의존 거동에 관련하는 것으로 판단된다.

The road construction, as part of effort to ease the worsening traffic, has been underway throughout the nation, while the existing road has been increasingly losing its load carrying capacity due to such factors as heavy traffic and weathering. In the case of site, the soil type, plasticity index, and specific gravity were SC, 12.2%, and 2.66, respectively. The maximum dry density, optimum moisture content and modified CBR were $1.895g/cm^3$ (Modified Compaction D), 13.6%, and 16.2%, respectively. A correlation of coefficient expressed good interrelationship by 0.90 between the CBR estimated from a dynamic penetration index of dynamic cone penetrometer test and a deformation modulus converted from a dynamic deflection modulus obtained from a portable FWD test.

In this work, effects of hyper-elastic rubber material properties on the indentation load-deflection curve and subindenter deformation are first examined via finite element (FE) analyses. An optimal data acquisition spot is selected, which features maximum strain energy density and negligible frictional effect. We then contrive two normalized functions, which map an indentation load vs. deflection curve into a strain energy density vs. first invariant curve. From the strain energy density vs. first invariant curve, we can extract the rubber material properties. This new spherical indentation approach produces the rubber material properties in a manner more effective than the common uniaxial tensile/compression tests. The indentation approach successfully measures the rubber material properties and the corresponding nominal stress-strain curve.
