Uplift response of symmetrical circular anchor plates has been evaluated in physical model tests and numerical simulation using Plaxis. The behavior of circular anchor plates during uplift test was studied by experimental data and finite element analyses in loose sand. Validation of the analysis model was also carried out with 50 mm, 75 mm and 100 mm diameter of circular plates in loose sand. Agreement between the uplift responses from the physical model tests and finite element modeling using PLAXIS 2D, based on 100 mm computed maximum displacements was excellent for circular anchor plates. Numerical analysis using circular anchor plates was conducted based on hardening soil model (HSM). The research has showed that the finite element results gives higher than the experimental findings in the loose sand.

A numerical study has been conducted to examine the improvement achieved in the ultimate pullout capacity of horizontal circular anchor plates embedded in undrained clay, by constructing granular columns of varying diameter over the anchor plates. The analysis has been carried out by using lower bound theorem of limit analysis and finite elements in combination with linear programming. The improvement in uplifting capacity of anchor plate is expressed in terms of an efficiency factor (${\xi}$). The efficiency factor (${\xi}$) has been defined as the ratio of ultimate vertical pullout capacity of anchor plate having diameter D embedded in soft clay reinforced by granular column to the vertical pullout capacity of the anchor plate with same diameter D embedded in soft clay only. The variation of efficiency factor (${\xi}$) for different embedment ratios and different diameter of granular column has been studied considering a wide range of softness of clay and different value of soil internal friction angle (${\phi}$) of the granular material. It is observed that ${\xi}$ increases with an increase in diameter of the granular column ($D_t$) and increase in friction angle of granular material. Also, the effectiveness of the usage of granular column increases with decrease in cohesion of the clay.

The fluid dynamic properties of a circular arc type sea anchor were calculated by a discrete vortex method. The flow for the surface of the sea anchor was represented by arranging bound vortices at adequate intervals. The simulations were performed by assuming that the separations occur at edges. With time, the drag coefficient was almost constant but the lift coefficient oscillated in a cycle by von Karman's vortex street. As the camber ratios increase, the drag coefficient and Strouhal number were almost constant but the oscillating amplitude of the lift coefficient increased largely.

이 연구에서는 프리스트레싱용 고강도 강연선의 정착장치 중 강연선을 직접 정착하는 앵커헤드(anchor head)에 대해 거동특성을 분석하고, 앵커헤드의 제원을 결정하는 단계에 있어서 해석적 검토에 요구되는 프로세스에 대해 정립하였다. 앵커헤드는 쐐기와의 접촉(contact)을 통해 강연선으로부터의 힘이 전달되고 거동변화에 따라 접촉상태 또한 변하게 된다. 이를 고려한 상세 거동분석을 위해 쐐기와 헤드 사이의 접촉(contact)조건을 설정하였으며, 앵커헤드의 비선형 재료모델을 적용하여 기하 및 재료 비선형성을 고려한 구조해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과로부터 다음의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 앵커헤드의 거동은 앵커헤드와 쐐기 간의 상호거동에 크게 영향을 받기 때문에 초기 설계단계부터 상대 영향을 고려해야 한다. 쐐기홀(wedge hole)의 배치는 층배열(layered) 보다는 원형배열(circular)이 보다 응력분배에 효과적이고, 쐐기홀의 간격을 증가시키고 헤드 하면 구멍의 크기를 줄여 구멍사이 강재의 두께를 다소 늘이는 것이 구조거동에 효과적이다.

해양관측시설은 고정식과 부유식으로 나뉘는데 본 고에서는 부유식 해상관측시설과 관련된 파랑하중 및 계류계에 대해 다루었다. 부유식 해상관측시설의 일 예에 대해 운동계산과 표류력 계산을 수행하고 고찰하였다. 또한 계류앵커의 일종인 원형 파일앵커가 수평력을 받는 경우의 모형실험과 파주력 계산을 위한 프로그램을 작성하여 그 계산결과와 비교 고찰하였다. SCUBA 활동으로 설치가능한 파일앵커의 파주력 추정에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

The uplift capacity and displacement of an earth anchor for improving the wind resistance of the 1-2W type plastic film pipe on greenhouse was tested using the steel circular vertical earth anchor with various diameters and embedded depths (L) in dry sand. The diameter (B) of the model anchor is 90mm, 120mm, 150mm, respectively. The model tests were performed embedded depth ratios (L/B) ranging from $1{\sim}3$ in loose density. In the case of diameter 90mm, as the uplift loading increased, the uplift capacity also increased until the loading was reached to ultimate uplift capacity. After that, the uplift capacity was continually increased or decreased until the experiment was finished. In general, the ultimate uplift capacity was different depending upon the anchor diameter and embedded depth ratios.

This paper describes a floating fish reef technology for enhancement of fisheries productivity in the muddy areas. The floating fish reef was composed of main fish cage, anchor rope and concrete anchor blocks. Main fish cage was made up of 12 steel buoys measuring 0.37m in diameter and 1.5m long, polyethylene (PE) netting and circular steel rings. Each steel buoy had buoyancy of 110kgf. The size of main fish cage was 1.96 m in diameter and 3.75m in length. Monitoring on its durability was made for eight months after installation. The steel buoys fixed on main fish cage and nettings were observed to be kept safely. The wet weight of fouling organisms per unit area$(m^2)$ was 26.6kgf after eight months. Reduction in the cross-section of steel buoys and circular steel rings of main fish cage were not found. In addition, any cracks on the concrete anchor blocks were not observed.

판앵커들은 각종 해양공사와 해양구조물의 유지관리작업에 빈번히 사용되고 있다. 판앵커가 연약한 점토에 근입되었을 때 지속적인 허용하중을 받게 되면 Creep현상이 발생될 수도 있다. 본 논문은 얕은 원형앵커가 순극한 상향인발력보다 작은 순하중을 지속적으로 받았을 때 시간이 경과함에 따라 발생되는 크리프효과를 연구한 실내모델실험 결과를 기술하였다. 실내모델시험 결과를 바탕으로 순하중과 상향변위율 및 경과시간사이의 상관관계식을 제시하였다.
