Pipes buried in around a construction site of urbanized area tend to be affected by the vibration caused by construction loads. The behaviors of buried pipes affected by periodic vibration were analyzed through numerical analyses based on existing study and experimental results. From the results of theses analyses, the serviceability of buried pipes subjected to vibration was verified. This study analyzed the pipe behaviors subjected to dump truck loads with respect to burial depths, and this research was performed as foundation study to establish standards for managing buried pipes. The analyses were performed with burial depth of 0.6, 1.2, 1.8m and vehicle velocity of 10km/h. From theses analyses, the vibration velocity and occurred stress tend to decrease as a burial depth increases.

Uplift phenomenon occurs when the apparent unit weight of buried geo-structures becomes smaller than that of the liquefied backfill due to the increase of an excess pore water pressure during strong earthquakes. In order to explain the relationship between the uplift displacement of the buried geo-structures and the increase of the excess pore water pressure ratio in backfill, dynamic centrifuge model tests are conducted. In the present study, primary and secondary factors against uplift behavior of the buried geo-structures are considered in the dynamic centrifuge model tests. Among these factors, the most important factors affecting the increase in the excess pore water pressure ratio were the ground water depth, the relative density of backfill, and the amplitude of the input acceleration, which were also largely affect the uplift amount of the buried geo-structures.

통신선에 장애를 유발할 수 있는 전자유도 대책을 위해서 국가 기술기준에 의한 유도전압 한계치가 정해져 있고, 현장 유도 대책 상 이 제한치를 초과할 때에 필요한 것이므로 정부 고시의 기술 근거에 의해 유도전압을 계산하여 이에 대한 조치를 시행하고 있다. 전자유도 현상에 있어서 피유도원인 통신선간의 커플링 관계에 있어서 중간 차폐를 줄 수 있는 성분에 대한 계수치를 적용할 수 있다. 이러한 차폐성을 줄 수 있는 시설과 관련하여 여러 가지 기유도원 또는 피유도원 시설 구조상의 요소들에 대한 차폐치가 주어져 있다. 그러나 지중 매설물에 대한 차폐효과에 대하여는 별도로 제시되지는 못하고 있다. 이와 관련 지중 매설물 중 광역상수도관에 의한 차폐성을 확인하기 위한 현장 측정을 통하여 비교 연구하였다. 유도원과 병행하여 광역상수도관이 매설된 지역에서 광역상수도관이 병행하는 부분과 일정 정도의 이격되어 병행하는 부분의 경계점에서 양단에 발생하는 유도 전압을 동시 비교 측정함으로써 그 차폐효과에 대한 현장 데이터를 확보하였다. 현장의 여러 조건변수들의 종속성을 정규화하고 광역상수도관의 독립적 변수에 의한 차폐성을 분석하여 제시한다.

This study investigated the occurrences, causes, and mitigation of the recent ground subsidence and underground cavity generation events in Korea. Two main causes of ground subsidence are (1) the soil erosion by seepage during tunneling and earth excavation and (2) the damage of underground pipes. The main cause of the soil erosion during tunneling was the uncontrolled groundwater flow. Especially, when excavating soft grounds using a tunnel boring machine (TBM), the ground near TBM operation halt points were found to be the most vulnerable to failure. The damage of underground pipes was mainly caused by poor construction, material deterioration, and differential settlement in soft soils. The ground subsidence during tunneling and earth excavation can be managed by monitoring the outflow of groundwater and eroded soils in construction sites. It is expected that the ground subsidence by the underground pipe damage can be managed or mitigated by life cycle analysis and maintenance of the buried pipes, and by controlling the earth pressure distribution or increasing the bearing capacity at the upper ground of the buried pipes.

본 고에서는 도심지 터널의 과학적인 설계/시공을 위한 요소기술 확보의 일환으로 기존의 연구자들이 제시한 손상평가 기법을 토대로 터널굴착에 따른 지중매설관 손상여부의 예비평가를 위한 평가기법을 제시하였다. 제시된 기법을 토대로 다양한 경우에 대한 매개변수 연구를 수행한 결과 지반침하곡선의 경사 및 곡률 등 침하곡선의 제반특성에 기반을 둔 본 연구에서 개발된 손상평가기법의 평가결과는 변곡점의 위치에 많은 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 따라서 현장 특유의 지반특성 및 시공조건이 반영된 변곡점 산정식의 개발을 위한 지속적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 아울러서 터널심도가 터널직경의 2.5배 이하인 경우 손상도가 현저히 증가하며, 전반적으로 관의 재질이나 조인트의 형식에 관계없이 관체의 인장변형률이 손상여부를 결정짓는 인자인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과를 종합하여 터널과 매설관의 상대적 위치 및 지반손실량에 따라 매설관의 손상정도를 정량적으로 평가할 수 있는 설계도표를 제시하였다.

A district heating system produces thermal energy and supplies it to a large region. District heating systems can provide higher efficiencies and better pollution control than localized boilers. The heat generated by a district heating system is distributed to the customer via a network of insulated pipes. For the optimal operation of a district heating system, it is important to predict the distributions of pressure, flow rate and temperature of heating fluid within the network of pipes at various operating conditions. In this work, a mathematical modeling was performed to predict the dynamic hydraulic-thermal behaviors of heating fluid in the network of pipes for a district heating system. The mathematical model accounts for the conservations of mass, momentum and energy. In order to verify the validity of modeling, the modeling results were compared with the monitoring data of Gang-nam Branch of District Heating.

A ground penetrating image radar (GPR) using an ultra wideband (UWB)impulse waveform is developed for non destructive detection of metallic pipelines buried under the ground. Dielectric constant of test field is measured and then a GPR system is designed for better detection up to 1 meter deep. By considering total path loss, volume of complete system, and resolution, upper and lower frequencies are chosen. First, a UWB impulse for the frequency bandwidth of the impulse is chosen with rising time less than 1 ns, and then compact planar UWB dipole antenna suitable for frequency bandwidth of a UWB impulse is designed. Also, to receive reflected signals, a digital storage oscilloscope is used. For measurement, a monostatic technique and a migration technique are used. For visualizing underground targets, simple image processing techniques of A-scan removal and B-scan average removal are applied. The prototype of the system is tested on a test field in wet clay soil and it is shown that the developed system has a good ability in detecting underground metal objects, even small targets of several centimeters.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to automatically extract information on underground facilities using a general-purpose smartphone in the process of applying the mini-trenching method. Method: Data sets for image learning were collected under various conditions such as day and night, height, and angle, and the object detection algorithm used the R-CNN algorithm. Result: As a result of the study, F1-Score was applied as a performance evaluation index that can consider the average of accurate predictions and reproduction rates at the same time, and F1-Score was 0.76. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that it was possible to extract information on underground buried materials based on smartphones, but it is necessary to improve the precision and accuracy of the algorithm through additional securing of learning data and on-site demonstration.

Recently, the vibration of underground structure due to high speed railway loads has been increased substantially as compared with middle and slow speed. The buried gas pipelines under continuous impact forces and repeated loading are more influenced by the vibrational loads than another pipelines. However, the static analysis was not enough to allow for the effect of vibrations because it uses impact factors for the design or analysis process. In this study, characteristics of Pipelines was quantitatively estimated through each conditions of soil covers and train speed, and the new vibration prediction is presented about the vibrational velocity.
