This study aims at investigating of the behavioral characteristics of foundation ground subjected to a strip load in anisotropy. Using marine clays sampled at Shihwa area, a series of laboratory tests including triaxial compressive test, plane strain compressive and expansion tests that allows horizontal deformation only and zero strain (${\varepsilon}_2$) in the direction of intermediate stress (${\sigma}_2$) are conducted. In addition, a numerical analysis using parameters obtained from the tests is carried out. In the numerical analysis, Cam-clay model that simulates the behavior of natural deposited clay properly is adopted. The analysis results show that the vertical displacements of the plane strain compressive tests are relatively larger than those of triaxial compressive tests by 18-25%. Likewise, the horizontal displacements is 13-19% larger.

It has been demonstrated in plane strain compression tests performed on dense Toyoura sand and Silver Leighton Buzzard sand, that the newly developed instrumentation for small strain measurements was capable of measuring the altering stiffness of sands for a wide range of shear strain from ($10^{-6}$to $10^{-2}$. It was found that for the range of shear strain($\gamma$) from $10^{-5}$ to those at peak, the Rowe's stressiilatancy relation seemed to be a good approximation for Toyoura sand and Silver Leighton Buzzard sand. However, the value of K and Poisson's ratio(at elastic range:${\nu}_{psc}^e$) varied with sand types. It was also found that the value of ${\nu}_{psc}^e$ and stress -dilatancy relation was irrespective of overconsolidation ratio(OCR).

The overlay model is a certain kinds of numerical analysis method to present the material non-lineariy which is represented the baushinger effect and the strain hardening. This model simulates the complex behavior of material by controlling the properties of the layers which like the hardening ratio, the section area and the yield stress. In this paper, the constitutive equation and plastic flow rule of each layer which are laid in the plane stress field are obtained by using the thermodynamics. Two numerical examples were tested for the validity of proposed method in uniaxial stress and plane stress field with comparable experimental results. The only parameter for the test is the yield stress distribution of each layers.

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.

This study aims at investigating the mechanism and operation of cubical triaxial test developed by Lade in order to obtain analysis on the clayey foundation deformation. A comparison on deviator stress, pore water pressure and stress path is made between test results of clay using the cubical consolidated undrained test as well as plane strain test.

The lower ground of structure, in which the strip loads, such as earth dams and embankments , are signiificantly working on , is required to be interpreted as a state of plane strain where the strain of intermediated principal stress direction is put '0' . The plane strain state is frquently observed in actural soil engineering case. For those case, drained stress-strain and strength behavior of Iksan weathered granite soil prepared in cubical specimens with cross-anisotropic fabric was studied by conventional triaxial compression, plane strain and cubial triaxial tests with independent control of the three principal stress. All specimens were loaded under conditions of principl stress directions fixed and aligned with the directions of the material axes. As a result of research , when a ground condition is analyzed under plane strain state, the shear strength obtained from the conventional triaxial compression test can be understimated.

본 연구에서는 나노복합재의 탄소성 거동과 항복응력을 예측하기 위해 분자동역학 전산모사를 수행하였다. 나일론 기지와 실리카 나노입자가 포함된 단위 셀 구조로부터 나노입자의 체적분율 변화에 따른 응력-변형률 선도를 등변형률을 적용한 등온등압 앙상블 전산모사로부터 도출하였다. 4%의 변형률 범위에서 나노복합재의 탄성계수를 도출하였고, 이를 이용하여 2% 오프셋 방법으로 항복응력을 예측하였다. 나노입자의 유무에 따른 항복평면의 변화와 고분자 재료에서 나타나는 정수압 효과가 항복평면에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 일축 인장/압축 그리고 이축 인장/압축을 수행하였고, 각각의 경우에 나타나는 나노복합재 내부의 자유체적 변화에 대한 분석을 통해 나노입자의 강화효과를 고찰하였다. 또한 고분자 기지로 인해 발생하는 정수압 효과를 반영한 von-Miss 항복평면을 도출하고, 입자의 체적분율 변화에 따른 항복응력의 예측이 가능하도록 정수압효과에 대한 파라메터를 체적분율의 함수로 근사하였다.

To simulate two-dimensional plane-strain conditions in the laboratory model test, the side frictional resistance between the soil and thick glass or plastic sheet of the soil container should be reduced as much as possible. However, in fact this side friction cannot be removed completely. In this paper, the ground model simulated as a multi-sized aluminium rod mixture was introduced to get rid of the side frictional resistance and applied to the laboratory shear box test. In addition, an application of the close range photogrammetric technique to the shear box test was validated. As a result, it was found that a mean value of dilation angle from the close range photogrammetry was close to the dilation angle defined by the curve of shear strain vs. volumetric strain.

The in-situ consolidation behavior of drainage system-installed deposits has three dimensional characteristics. Therefore, for an approximate 2-D plane strain consolidation analysis, it is necessary to convert the 3-D spatial flow of actual cases into the laminar flow simulated by the 2-D plane strain model. . In this paper, in order to properly model the effect of three dimensional characteristics, an equivalent and efficient model has been applied in a finite element technique for the analysis of the drainage system-installed soil deposits. The equivalent two dimensional model involves equivalent permeabilities and drainage widths. To validate the equivalent two dimensional model, three dimensional analyses were per formed by using the ABAQUS program and the results of 3-D analyses were compared with those of the 2-D analyses. By using the proposed equivalent model, one may be able to appropriately predict the consolidation behavior of drainage system-installed soft deposits.

In order to get ultimate pullout resistance of ground anchor, the position of failure surface, normal stress and friction angle on the failure surface should be known. In this study, the position of failure surface is obtained by observing deformation of ground around anchor, and stresses on the anchor surface are analyzed by measuring normal and shear stresses on the anchor surface through model anchor test in plane strain. In addition, the relationship between lateral earth pressure and the position of failure surface is analyzed and the formula for calculating ultimate pullout resistance of anchor is proposed by using non-dimensional coefficient of ultimate pullout resistance.
