In this research, a small-scaled laboratory test and FEM analysis have been carried out to evaluate the feasibility of field construction with couple of recycled materials, such as in-situ soil, water-treatment sludge, and crumb rubbers. A static loading, which simulates the real traffic load, was adopted in lab test. The test was carried out, according to simulated field construction stages, such as excavation, bedding materials and pipe installation, placing and curing of controlled low strength materials, and simulated traffic loading. Couple of measuring instruments were adopted. The maximum vertical and horizontal deformations were 0.83% and 1.09%, during placing the CLSM. The measured vertical and horizontal deformations with curing time were 0.603mm and 0.676mm, respectively. The reduction effect of vertical and lateral earth pressure was relatively big. Also, FEM analysis was carried out to get the deformation, earth pressure and strain of PVC with different Controlled Low Strength Materials(CLSM) materials.

In the present study, anchor type nail with PC-strand which can add up the pre-stress at the nailing to increase the resistance and shear stress in the whole ground has been investigated. Load-displacement and wall displacement have been analyzed by experimental model and numerical analysis of anchor type nail, nailing, and non-nailing to examine the behavior of anchor type nail. From the experimental results, it was found that horizontal displacement is considerably decreased according to increasing the load in case of anchor type nail added pre-tension. Especially, it was observed that resistance of displacement at the upper wall is increased. The results of numerical analysis show the same results of experimental results.

사암 및 이암을 기반암으로 하는 산악지역에 건설되는 2-아치 (2-arch) 터널의 거동을 터널설계 단계에서 분석하기 위하여 대규모 실내 모형실험을 실시하였다. 터널이 시공될 예정인 지반과 유사한 지질공학적 특성을 가지는 콘크리트 블록을 이용하여 모형지반을 조성하였다. 모형실험은 중앙터널 (pilot tunnel) 굴착을 포함한 여러 단계의 굴착과정으로 구분하여 실시되었다. 또한 터널 .공용기간 중 터널의 거동을 연구하기 위하여 터널굴착 완료 후 상재하중을 작용시켰다. 실험결과에 의하면 대부분의 지반변위는 중앙터널 굴착에 의해 발생했으며, 그 이후 터널 굴착단계에서의 변위발생은 미미한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 대부분의 지중변위는 0.25D 이내의 범위에서 발생하였다. 여기서 D 는 터널의 폭이다. 한편 실험결과를 분석하여 경암에 시공되는 2-아치 터널의 중앙벽체(centre pillar)에 작용하는 하중에 대한 경험적인 공식을 제시하였다. 터널시공 완료 후 공용기간 중 상재하중이 작용할 경우 그 크기에 따라서는 터널굴착에 의해 발생한 것보다 더 큰 지중변위가 발생할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 터널의 거동은 중앙벽체의 강성에 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나 이를 터널설계에 반영하여 중앙벽체의 강성을 증가시켰다. 현재 터널시공을 위한 사전작업이 진행 중에 있으며, 터널의 굴착은 2005년 하반기에 실시될 예정이다.

This research performed the laboratory model tests for Top-Base Foundation developed in Japan and Floating Top-Base Foundation developed in Korea on the typical clayey soft soils, namely, clay, clayey silt and clayey sand. The performances of the two types of top-base foundation were compared with each other and evaluated by measuring load-settlement, heaving of foundation side, ground stress distribution in this model tests. The change of settlement caused by the increase of top base width was also analyzed. As a result of the model tests, Floating Top-Base Foundation showed better performance in bearing capacity improvement, settlement decrease, stress dispersion effect and lateral confinement force. And settlement caused by the increase of top base width converged to a regular value from $5{\times}5$ layout of the width.

This paper presents experimental and numerical studies on the closure ratio of tunnel face to reduce pressure and displacement occurring at tunnel face during tunnel excavation. In experimental study, model tests are carried out according to the closure ratio of tunnel face and tunnel depth. Model test results are analyzed and interpreted by numerical calculation in order to verify results obtained from experimental and numerical studies. It is clearly found that tunnel face stability increases with the increase of the closure ratio of tunnel face. The results also show that tunnel face is stable when the closure ratio of tunnel face is larger than 80%. This research will be very useful to develop the economical tunnel face closing system.

This paper presents a new approach of closing the tunnel face with sprayed concrete to reduce the stress at the tunnel face and displacement occurring at the ground surface during tunnel excavation. In order to carry out this research, the experimental and numerical studies are performed. In the experimental study, the model tests are carried out according to the closure ratio of tunnel face, tunnel depth and tunnel excavation length. The model test results are analyzed and interpreted by numerical calculation in order to verify both results obtained from experimental and numerical studies. It is clearly found that the tunnel face stability is decreased in decreasing the closure ratio of tunnel face. The results also show that the tunnel face is stable when the closure ratio of tunnel face is larger than 80%. This research will be very useful to develop the economical tunnel face closing system.

This study mainly focused on the subsurface settlement due to shallow and deep tunneling in sandy ground. In order to figure out theoretical deformation patterns in association with the ground loss during the progress of tunneling, laboratory model tests using aluminum rods and finite element analyses using the CRISP program were carried out. As a result of comparison between the model test and the finite element analysis, the similar deformation patterns were found. In addition, it was identified that the most K values obtained from both the FEA and the model tests were distributed between Dyer et al. (1996) and Moh et al. (1996) of the field observation data. Based on the model test data, the linear equation of K for the sandy soil could be obtained.

This study analyzed the bed load transport and channel change on the vegetation zone through laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. To examine the effect of vegetation zone in the laboratory experiment, artificial vegetation zones made of acrylic sticks were installed in the experimental channel, and discharge conditions were adjusted to examine the bed load transport and channel change in the vegetation zone. Next, numerical simulations were performed by applying the same conditions as those of the laboratory experiment to the Nays2D model, a two-dimensional numerical model, and the applicability of the numerical model was examined by comparing the results with the results of the laboratory experiment. Finally, by applying a numerical model, the bed load transport and channel change according to the change in vegetation density were examined. As a result of examining the bed load transport and channel change in the vegetation zone according to the discharge condition change by applying the laboratory experiment and the numerical model, the results of the two application methods were similar. As the discharge increased, bed load from the upper stream was deposited inside the vegetation zone. On the other hand, on the other side of the vegetation zone, the flow was concentrated and erosion occurred. Also, the range of erosion increased in the downstream direction. As a result of examining the bed load transport and channel change according to the change in vegetation density, as the vegetation density increased, the bed load from the upper stream was deposited inside the vegetation zone. On the other hand, due to the increase in vegetation density, the flow was concentrated to the opposite side of the vegetation zone, erosion occurred.

본 연구에서는 연안내 오염물질 이동 및 확산 특성을 파악하기 위하여 실내조파모형장치를 제작하고 Nacl을 이용한 염료실험을 실시하였다. 제작된 실내조파모형장치를 이용하여 재현된 조석파는 주기 2초, 파고 3cm의 일정한 주기와 파고를 형성하는 규칙파로 재현하였다. 또한 반사파의 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 상류단에 감쇄역을 설치하였으며 유속의 변화에 따른 염료의 이동 확산특성을 분석하기 위하여 동일조건에서 유속변화를 달리하여 2회 실험하였다. 또한 추적자로 사용된 Nacl은 실험전 일정한 농도로 희석하여 사용하였으며 추적자의 실시간 농도관측을 위하여 세창인스트루먼트 제품 CPC-401(휴대형 다항목 측정장치)을 방출지점에서 일정한 간격으로 4개 지점에 설치하여 1초간격의 농도데이터를 수집하였다. 수집된 CPC-401의 농도데이터 분석결과 염료의 이동 방향은 방출지점에서 하류단 지점으로 이동하였으며 유속의 변화에 따른 최대농도 값의 변화는 적었으나 염료의 지속시간 변화는 뚜렸하게 나타났다. 이는 난류확산 보다는 유속 변화로 인한 이류가 크게 작용함을 알 수 있었다.

Recently, the intensive rainstorm possibly induced by global warming plays a key role on the instability of railway adjacent slopes. The instability of slopes results as covering and loss of railway lines induced by slided soil mass. According to the site investigation on the failed slopes triggered by rainfall, low types of slope failure were observed: shallow, intermediate, gully erosion, and soil-rock interface failures. The observation reveals the different characteristics of slope failure depending on the thickness of soil layer, morphological features of slope, etc. Based upon the observations, flume tests were conducted to analyze the sliding mechanism of each failure. The variables of flume test are soil layer thickness, rainfall intensity, and morphology of slope under the constant condition of the percentage of fine, initial soil moisture content, slope angle and compaction energy. Test results show that shallow failure was mostly observed from the surface of the slope and caused by the soil erosion; in addition, compared to the other types of failure, the occurrence of initial erosion is late, however, the development of erosion is fast. In gully erosion failure, the collected water from the water catchment area helps erosion of the upper soil layer and transfer of residual corestone, which impedes the erosion process once the upper soil layers are eroded and corestone are exposed. The soil-rock interface failure shows the most fast initial erosion process among the failure types. Interestingly, the common feature observed from the different types of failure was the occurrence of the initial deformation near the toe of slopes which implies the existence of surbsurface flow along the downslope direction.
