slaking 은 굴착에 의해 노출된 암반에서 발생하는 강도저하 및 입자간의 결합력 약화에 의해 암반이 세립화하는 현상이다. 이러한 slaking은 특히 퇴적암으로 구성된 암반사변의 안정성에 영향을 미치는 중요한 인자로 작용한다. slaking에 의한 암반사면의 불안정성은 신생대의 이질암이나 미고결 응회암에서와 같이 암반 자체의 강도 저하 및 결합력 약화에 의해 발생하는 붕괴현상과 차별풍화에 의해 이암 등이 급속도로 쇄굴 및 풍화되어 상부에 놓여 있는 암석이 낙석 등의 형태로 붕괴되는 현상으로 구분할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이암의 차별풍화에 의해 사면의 불안정성이 유발되는 연구지역을 대상으로 풍화 및 쇄굴 속도와 slake의 상관관계를 밝히고자하였다. 이를 위하여 slake test와 slake durability test를 수행하였으며 slake durability index를 획득하였다. 실험을 통해 획득된 slake durability index를 연간 쇄굴속도와 비교하여 상관관계를 검토하였으며 기존의 연구결과와 비교하여 slake durability index를 활용하여 쇄굴 정도를 예측할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다.

최근 국내 건설현장들은 도심지 근접구간에서 발파진동피해를 최소화하기 위하여 전자뇌관을 이용한 미진동 전자발파공법 적용사례가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 미진동 전자발파는 무진동 암파쇄 대체공법으로 경제성은 우수하나 시공현장에서 진동을 제어하는 공법으로 1회 굴진장을 1m 이하로 적용하고 있어 시공속도가 저하되는 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 따라서, 미진동 전자발파 수준의 진동제어와 굴착비 절감 및 시공속도를 높일 수 있는 더블데크 발파공법을 연구 및 시험을 수행하였다. 미진동 전자발파와 더블데크 전자발파 비교 시험결과 진동레벨, 발파효율, 파쇄입도, 여굴량 등이 비슷한 수준으로 평가되어 현장 적용시 굴진장 증대로 인한 공사기간 단축 및 시공비 절감이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

Severe damage can occur around deposition holes due to complex interaction of thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) loading during the long term operation of high level radioactive waste repository. Many candidate sites for repository are located in crystalline rock mass, therefore mechanism of damage follows the form of brittle fracture and failure. This paper briefly introduces major outcomes from 15 years international collaborative project, DECOVALEX, and presents major study results for current ongoing benchmark test study from DECOVALEX-THMC, to evaluate the effect of THM loading to rock mass in excavation damaged zone (EDZ) near deposition holes. Through benchmark test model by simplifying THM loading to boundary loading obtained numerical results are compared, and discrete fracture interaction after up to 1 million years operation is discussed.

A hydraulic breaker is an attachment installed at the end of excavator arm and is used for breaking. As per the authors' knowledge, there have been no research results on reducing the weight of the hydraulic breaker even though this weight reduction is very important for improving the performance of the excavator. In this study, we minimize the weight of the housing of the hydraulic breaker under normal operating conditions, while the maximum stress of the housing is lower than the allowable stress. A meta-model, which is generated by using the CAE results for the sampling design points determined by an orthogonal array, is used to solve the minimization problem. The weight of the housing according to the optimal design is found to be lower than the original weight by 4.8% while satisfying the constraint on the maximum stress.

The area to be studied is the place where the main line rail way will be constructed in accordance with the scheduled construction project of Yeongju dam, and is a fold and mylonite zone over several km that is formed by ductile-shearing effect. The ductile shear zone, which has been transformed by faulting for long geological time, shows a complicated geological structure. Due to the recrystallization of mineral caused by transformation in deep underground (>8km), a mylonite zone with lamellar structure has properties distinguished from other fault zones formed by transformation near earth surface <2km). To see the properties of mylonite, this study analyzed the transformation rate of sample rocks and the shape of constriction structure accompanied with transformation. While the transformation of fault zone shows a round oblate, the mylonite zone shows a prolate form. Transformation rate in fault zone was measured to be less than 1.2 compared to the state before transformation while the measured rate in mylonite zone was 2.5 at most. Setting the surface of discontinuity as the base, the unconfined compressive strength of slickenside can be categorized in sedimentary rocks, and a change of strength was observed after water soaking over certain time. Taking into account that the weathering resistance of the rock based on mineral and chemical organization is relatively higher, its engineering properties seems to result from the shattered crack structure by crushing effect. When undertaking tunnel construction in mylonite zone, there should be a special care for the expansion of shattered cracks or the fall of strength by influx of ground water.

Average hydraulic conductivity was $2.64{\times}10^{-8}m/sec$ average RQD was 78%, average porosity was 0.51%, and range of groundwater level was $77.06{\sim}125.97m$ by measured in 8 boreholes at the Surak Mt. tunnel area. Groundwater level of two peaks in the Surak Mt. tunnel area were estimated through linear regression analysis for groundwater level versus elevation. And, average horizontal hydraulic gradient in the Surak Mt. tunnel area was calculated 0.267. Minimum, maximum, and average hydraulic conductivities that estimated by field tests were $5.56{\times}10^{-9}m/sec,\;6.12{\times}10^{-8}m/sec,\;and\;2.64{\times}10^{-8}m/sec$, respectively. Groundwater discharge rates per 1 meter that estimated using minimum, maximum, and average hydraulic conductivities and average horizontal hydraulic gradient were $0.00585m^2/day,\;0.06434m^2/day,\;and\;0.02775m^2/day$, respectively. Pure groundwater recharge rate per unit recharge area was calculated 223.96 mm/yr through water balance analysis. Prediction simulation of groundwater level fluctuation with minimum, maximum, and average hydraulic conductivities were conducted. Discharge rate into the Surak Mt. tunnel for minimum hydraulic conductivity was small, but groundwaer drawdown was highly. Discharge rate into the Surak Mt. tunnel for maximum hydraulic conductivity was higher, but groundwaer level was recovered quickly.

In rock mass subject to high in-situ stresses, the failure process of rock is dominated by the stress-induced fractures growing parallel to the excavation boundary. When the ratio of in situ stresses compared to rock strength is greater than a certain value, progressive brittle failure which is characterized by popping and spatting of rock debris occurs due to stress concentration. Traditional constitutive model like Mohr-Coulomb usually assume that the normal stress dependent frictional strength component and the cohesion strength component are constant, therefore modelling progressive brittle failure will be very difficult. In this study, a series of numerical analyses were conducted for surrounding rock mass near crude oil storage cavern using CW-FS model which was known to be efficient for modelling brittle failure and the results were compared with those of linear Mohr-Coulomb model. Further analyses were performed by varying plastic shear strain limits on cohesion and internal friction angle to find the proper values which yield the matching result with the observed failure in the oil storage caverns. The obtained results showed that CW-FS model could be a proper method to characterize essential behavior of progressive brittle failure in competent rock mass.

This study is about a section where underground water level occurs at the underground 5m depth by the excavation of the ground, as a stream is adjacent to a excavation section of High Speed Railway ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ Station construction sections and a reservoir being always full of water is located at the left side of the construction section. Therefore this test is executed for the design and construction of buoyance anchors able to permanently prevent buoyance by the underground water level at working and for the stable construction and permanent smooth maintenance of structures. In this test, bar type anchors are divided according to their length and standard to execute test-anchor test, and In spot test, 9 test-anchors test, proof test to construction process, suitability test and acceptance test are executed 4 times to 9 test-anchors by dividing anchors according to the length of permanent anchor, the outer diameter of bar and boring diameter. Standard motion characteristic centering on load transmission and break mechanism of bar-type anchors for the prevention of buoyance will be showed in the thesis.

Tunnel boring machine (TBM) is widely used for tunnel excavation in hard rock and soft ground. In the perspective of TBM-based tunneling, one of the main challenges is to drive the machine optimally according to varying geological conditions, which could significantly lead to saving highly expensive costs by reducing the total operation time. Generally, drilling investigations are conducted to survey the geological ground before the TBM tunneling. However, it is difficult to provide the precise ground information over the whole tunnel path to operators because it acquires insufficient samples around the path sparsely and irregularly. To overcome this issue, in this study, we proposed a geological type classification system using the TBM operating data recorded in a 5 s sampling rate. We first categorized the various geological conditions (here, we limit to granite) as three geological types (i.e., rock, soil, and mixed type). Then, we applied the preprocessing methods including outlier rejection, normalization, and extracting input features, etc. We adopted a deep neural network (DNN), which has 6 hidden layers, to classify the geological types based on TBM operating data. We evaluated the classification system using the 10-fold cross-validation. Average classification accuracy presents the 75.4% (here, the total number of data were 388,639 samples). Our experimental results still need to improve accuracy but show that geology information classification technique based on TBM operating data could be utilized in the real environment to complement the sparse ground information.
