Finite element or difference methods are applied to the analysis of the tunnel stability and they provide detailed behaviour of analyzed tunnel sections but it is rather inefficient to analyze all the section of tunnel by using these methods. In this study, the authors suggest a new stability analysis method for whole tunnel to provide an efficient and easy way to understand the behaviour of whole tunnel by using an analytical solution with the assumption of equivalent circular tunnel. The mechanical behaviour, radial strain and plastic zone radius of whole tunnel were analyzed and appropriate support pressure to maintain the displacement within the allowable limit was suggested after the application of this method to the tunnel. Consequently, it was confirmed that this method can provide quick analysis of the whole tunnel stability and the quantitative information for subsequent measures such as selection of tunnel sections for detailed numerical analysis, set up of the monitoring plan, and so on.

To maintain the traffic flow during tunnel expansion, cars must be protected from falling rocks during excavation and to do so, a protector has to be installed inside the tunnel before beginning the excavation. In Korea, tunnel expansion by blasting rather than by mechanical excavation has been widely achieved. For this reason, a series of numerical analysis were performed to analyze the characteristics of impact load according to material behaviour of blasted rock by using Explicit FEA program. From the numerical results, it is found that the impact loads when rock is assumed as an elastic-plastic material appear to be only 7~12% compared with that when it is elastic.

In order to make reliable ground shock predictions in saturated geological media, it is necessary to use multi -phase material models and numerical codes. This paper presents the results of theoretical study of the fundamental behavior of multi-phase porous media subjected to high dynanlic loadings, and deals with the development of numerical code MPDAP with JWL(Jones-Wilkins-Lee) model, which is capable of considering the kinds and characters of explosives. To check the global equilhorium equations of the numerical code, we carried out some verifications. In the cases of the elastic spherical wave propagation in a single phase medium, one-dimensional linear ronsolidation, and one timensional wave propagation in saturated linear elastic soils and rocks, the results calculated by MPDAP show close agreement with closed-form solutions or numerical solutions generated with two phase code.

Sand pile method, such as sand drain method and sand compaction pile method, has been popularly used as an improved method for soft clay grounds. The effect of accelerating consolidation of soft clay grounds has been evaluated with Barren's solution. The consolidation behavior of soft clay ground with sand piles strongly depends on both the nonlinear mechanical interaction between sand piles and surrounding clays and the degradation permeability of clays. In this paper a method of determining consolidation parameters of soft clay ground with sand drains by using Barren's solution was proposed through a series of numerical simulations. Through the method, the change in both volume compressibility and permeability during consolidation was reasonably evaluated.

목표로 하는 성능 지수 함수를 여러 가지 제약 조건 하에서 최소 또는 최대 값을 찾는 문제에 관한 최적화 이론 (Optimization Theory)은 수확 및 공학 분야에서 가장 오래된 학문 영역 중 하나이다. 문제를 이루는 함수와 변수의 수학적 특성에 따라 그 문제를 푸는 많은 해석적 또는 수치적 해법에 관한 세부 이론들이 제시되어 왔다. 근래에는 빠른 계산 속도로 인해 과거에는 생각지 못했던 문제까지도 수치적인 접근을 통하여 그 해를 구할 수 있게 되었다. 본 기고에서는 몇몇 시스템 이론 분야에서 최적화 이론이 사용된 사례를 간략히 소개한다.

본고에서는 방재개설들을 거시분류법으로 나눠 자연재해방재, 인위적재해방재, 방위방재, 산업재해방재, 경제방재, 기능방재, 효과방재, 인간훽터방재로 전개했으며, 이는 방재이론을 브로드하게 표현하여 최근의 방재이론의 동향과 이론의 흐름을 소개하였다. 우리의 방재이론과 세계의 그것은 너무도 거리가 있으며 각분야에 방재훽터의 부여율은 후진국의 그것에 멈추고 있음을 실감할 수 있다. 아직 상아탑에서서의 연구는 자료 등의 부족으로 불가능 하겠으나 일백년전 미국이 각 메이커와 협회중심으로 각분야재해책을 연구하였듯이 우리도 각 분야에 종사하는 사람 각자가 방재의식을 갖고 "하고있는 일" 또는 "하려고하는 일에" 방재훽터를 부여하는 방법이 강구 되어야 하겠다.부여하는 방법이 강구 되어야 하겠다.

An ad hoc method of deriving three-dimensional elastic Greens solution for displacements is proposed in this study; Instead of direct evaluation of four-dimensional Fourier integral that is usual in spectral approaches, we first derived the expression for particle acceleration using the calculus of residues, and then, derived the expression for particle displacement by direct formal integration with respect to time. As a result, we can detour the disconcertion related to causality due to directly evaluating the integral with respect to angular frequency in conventional spectral approach.

With the ever increasing advances in computers and their computing power, computational fluid dynamics(CFD) has become an essential engineering tool in the design and analysis of engineering applications. Accordingly, many universities have developed and implemented a course on CFD for undergraduate students. On the other hand, many professors have used industrial examples supplied by computational analysis software companies as CFD examples. This makes many students think of CFD as difficult and confusing. This paper presents a simple CFD example used in the department of mechanical design engineering of Kangwon National University and shows its effectiveness. Most students answered that a simple CFD example is more comprehensive than an industrial example. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simple computational analysis problems in the engineering education field.

Methods for evaluating the added masses of square and hexagonal structures with fluid gap are presented. For a sufficiently small fluid gap, an analytical expression for the added mass is found using the method of matched asymptotic expansion. Experimental data and numerical results using finite element method are also obtained for various sizes of fluid gap. It is shown that added masses increase in inverse proportion to the fluid gap as it becomes smaller. Experimental data, theoretical and numerical results are in good agreement.

This work is concerned with the investigation of end effects of a cylinder on a structure where a circular plate is attached to a solid circular cylinder. Three-dimensional elasticity solutions are used in a cylinder whereas the classical thin plate theory is employed for a plate. The end effect of the cylinder on the flexibility and the structural response is demonstrated by several numerical examples.
