It is well accepted that rock failure mechanism influence the cutting efficiency and determination of optimum cutting parameters. In this paper, an attempt was made to research the factors that affect the failure mechanism based on discrete element method (DEM). The influences of cutting depth, hydrostatic pressure, cutting velocity, back rake angle and joint set on failure mechanism in rock-cutting are researched by PFC2D. The results show that: the ductile failure occurs at shallow cutting depths, the brittle failure occurs as the depth of cut increases beyond a threshold value. The mean cutting forces have a linear related to the cutting depth if the cutting action is dominated by the ductile mode, however, the mean cutting forces are deviate from the linear relationship while the cutting action is dominated by the brittle mode. The failure mechanism changes from brittle mode with larger chips under atmospheric conditions, to ductile mode with crushed chips under hydrostatic conditions. As the cutting velocity increases, a grow number of micro-cracks are initiated around the cutter and the volume of the chipped fragmentation is decreasing correspondingly. The crack initiates and propagates parallel to the free surface with a smaller rake angle, but with the rake angle increases, the direction of crack initiation and propagation is changed to towards the intact rock. The existence of joint set have significant influence on crack initiation and propagation, it makes the crack prone to propagate along the joint.

Surface energy is an important factor in determining the performance of application components in terms of preventing adhesion failure between thin films. In this regard, numerous attempts have been made to acquire the desired surface energy through chemical treatment or by using micro/nanostructures. However, such approaches are expected to provide extreme values of surface energy, which may not be suitable in achieving the enhanced performance of applications. In this study, we propose a method to control surface energy by using bilayer metallic film heterostructures. We measure the water contact angle of incompatible (Ni/Ag) and compatible (Zn/Ag) metal pairs under several experimental factors, including thickness, time, and temperature. Furthermore, we conduct Auger electron spectroscopy measurements to investigate the atomic concentration with respect to depth after the change in the water contact angle. The experimental results reveal that three parameters, namely, compatibility, film thickness, and environmental temperature, are major factors in controlling the water contact angle. Thus, we experimentally demonstrate that controlling these three parameters can provide the approximate desired water contact angle. This result is expected to aid in the performance enhancement of a wide range of application components, where control of surface energy is required.

This paper investigates the stability of a three-dimensional (3D) wedge under the pseudo-static action of an earthquake based on the nonlinear Barton-Bandis (B-B) failure criterion. The influences of the mechanical parameters of the discontinuity surface, the geometric parameters of the wedge and the pseudo-static parameters of the earthquake on the stability of the wedge are analyzed, as well as the sensitivity of these parameters. Moreover, a stereographic projection is used to evaluate the influence of pseudo-static direction on instability mode. The parametric analyses show that the stability coefficient and the instability mode of the wedge depend on the mechanical parameter of the rock mass, the geometric form of the wedge and the pseudo-static state of the earthquake. The friction angle of the rock φ_b, the roughness coefficient of the structure surface JRC and the two angles related to strikes of the joints θ₁ and θ₂ are sensitive to stability. Furthermore, the sensitivity of wedge height h, the compressive strength of the rock at the fracture surface JCS and the slope angle α to the stability are insignificant.

본 연구에서는 모형실험을 통해 균질모래지반에 매설된 횡력을 받는 무리말뚝의 수평저항력을 산정하는데 가장 큰 영향을 주는 배면토의 저항형태를 파악하였다. 저항거동 형태는 회전절점, 쐐기 파괴각, 쐐기 날개각으로 파악하였다. 실험은 지반의 상대밀도, 말뚝의 폭, 말뚝의 간격과 배열을 달리하여 수행하였다. 그 결과 직렬말뚝에서의 지반거동 양상은 전열과 중간열이 같았고 후열의 경우 전열과 중간열 보다 작은 값을 나타내었다. 병렬말뚝의 경우 지반거동 양상이 단독말뚝과 같게 나타났다. 실험 결과를 바탕으로 회전절점, 쐐기 파괴각, 쐐기 날개각 산정 값 들을 식으로 제안하였다.

Shear strength of the discontinuity on which the pre-failure of rock slope was occurred during surface excavation was measured through the direct shear test using core samples obtained in-situ. Internal friction angle was increased as the roughness of discontinuity surface(JRC) was increased. Results of the tilt test using core samples of higher JRC also showed very similar trend as those of the direct shear test. When the samples replicated from natural cores were used int he tilt test, results of friction angles showed almost perfect continuation of the residual friction angles from the direct shear test. However, when the gouge material existed in the discontinuity the internal friction angle strongly depended upon the rate of filling thickness to the height of asperity irrespective of the JRC. Based on the results of both direct shear test and tilt test internal friction angle and cohesion of discontinuity, which reflect the in-situ conditions fo pre-sliding failure and also can be used for the optimum design of support system, were assessed. Two kinds of support measures which were expected to increase the stability of rock slope were considered; lowering of slope face angle and installation of rock cable. But, it was found that the first method might lead to more unstable conditions of rock slope when the cohesion of discontinuity plane was negligibly low and in that case the support systems of any kind which could exert actual resisting force were needed to ensure the permanent stability of rock slope.

일반화된 Hoek-Brown 파괴함수는 GSI 지수를 이용하여 현장 암반의 강도정수를 결정하는 경험적 비선형 파괴조건식으로서 오늘날 다양한 암반공학적 설계에 널리 활용되고 있다. 그러나 여전히 많은 암반공학 전문가들이 암반의 강도를 마찰각과 점착력으로 표현하는 것에 익숙하다. 또한 거의 대부분의 암반안정성해석 수치해석 프로그램이 간편한 선형 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건식을 채택하고 있다. 이에 따라 Hoek-Brown 파괴함수를 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴함수 틀에서 이해하는 방법의 제시가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 한계해석 상계정리를 적용하여 유도된 줄기초의 지지력 공식을 활용하여 Hoek-Brown 파괴조건을 따르는 천부 암반의 등가마찰각과 등가점착력을 계산하는 방법을 제안하였다. 일반화된 Hoek-Brown 파괴함수가 내포하는 접선점착력-접선마찰각 관계식을 이용하여 지지력 상계해를 마찰각의 함수로 표현한 후 최소 지지력 조건의 마찰각을 탐색하여 이를 등가마찰각으로 간주하였다. 제안된 방법을 활용하여 GSI, $m_i$, 교란계수 D가 등가마찰각과 등가점착력에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

Slope stability is generally paid more attention to in slope protection works, especially for slope containing weak layers. Two indexes of safety factor and failure model are selected to perform slope stability. Moreover, the finite element limit analysis method comprehensively combines the advantage of the limit analysis method and the finite element method obtaining the upper and lower bounds of the safety factor and the failure mode under the slope stability limit state. In this study, taking a waste dump containing a weak layer as an engineering background, the finite element limit analysis method is adopted to explore the potential failure mode. Meanwhile, the sensitivity analysis of slope stability is performed on geometrical and geotechnical parameters of the waste dump. The results show that the failure mode of the waste dump slope is two wedges if the weak layer is located on the ground surface (Model A), while the slope can be observed as three wedges failure if the weak layer is below the ground surface (Model B). In addition, both failure modes are highly sensitive to the friction angle of the weak layer and the shear strength of waste disposal, and moderately sensitive to the heap height, the dip angle and cohesion of the weak layer, while the toe cutting has limited effect on the slope stability. Moreover, the sensitivity to the excavation of the ground depends on the location of the weak layer and failure mode.

In order to understand the shear mechanical properties of the interface between clay and structure and better serve the practical engineering projects, it is critical to conduct shear tests on the clay-structure interface. In this work, the direct shear test of clay-concrete slab with different joint roughness coefficient (JRC) of the interface and different normal stress is performed in the laboratory. Our experimental results show that (1) shear strength of the interface between clay and structure is greatly affected by the change of normal stress under the same condition of JRC and shear stress of the interface gradually increases with increasing normal stress; (2) there is a critical value JRC_cr in the roughness coefficient of the interface; (3) the relationship between shear strength and normal stress can be described by the Mohr Coulomb failure criterion, and the cohesion and friction angle of the interface under different roughness conditions can be calculated accordingly. We find that there also exists a critical value JRC_cr for cohesion and the cohesion of the interface increases first and then decreases as JRC increases. Moreover, the friction angle of the interface fluctuates with the change of JRC and it is always smaller than the internal friction angle of clay used in this experiment; (4) the failure type of the interface of the clay-concrete slab is type I sliding failure and does not change with varying JRC when the normal stress is small enough. When the normal stress increases to a certain extent, the failure type of the interface will gradually change from shear failure to type II sliding failure with the increment of JRC.

옹벽의 벽면이 거친 경우에 강성옹벽에 작용하는 주동토압의 크기와 분포형태는 뒷채움재의 내부마찰각과 옹벽의 벽면마찰각 뿐만 아니라 뒷채움재에서 발생하는 아칭효과와 파괴면의 형상에도 영향을 받는다. 따라서 강성옹벽에 작용하는 주동토압의 크기와 비선형의 분포형태를 정확히 산정하기 위해서는 토압 산정 시 뒷채움재에서 발생하는 아칭효과와 실제적인 파괴면의 형상을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 강성옹벽이 옹벽의 정점을 중심으로 회전하는 경우에 대하여 뒷채움재에서의 아칭효과와 실제적인 비선형의 파괴면 형상을 고려함으로써 비선형의 주동토압을 산정할 수 있는 토압산정식을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안식에 대한 정확도를 검증하기 위하여 제안식으로부터 얻어진 예측치들을 기존의 모형시험 결과들과 비교한 결과 제안식은 만족스런 토압 예측치를 제공하는 것으로 나타났다.
