일정변형속도 압밀시험(CRS)을 이용하여 점성토의 팽창지수 산정 특성을 조사하였다. CRS압밀시험에서 재하단계의 변형률은 0.05%/min와 0.03%/min을 적용하였으며, 재하단계에서는 재하단계의 변형속도의 1/1, l/5, 1/10, 1/15에 해당하는 변형속도를 적용하였다. 표준압밀시험과 비교하여 팽창지수를 산정한 결과 1/5∼1/10정도의 변형속도를 적용했을 때 서로 유사한 팽창지수가 산정되었다. 또한, 유효응력과 과잉간극수압비의 관계에서 교차점이 존재함을 알았으며 이 교차점을 기준으로 변형속도에 의존적인 부분과 비의존적인 부분이 존재함을 알 수 있었다.

Based on an estimating method for post-cyclic strength and stiffness with cyclic triaxial tests, Direct Simple Shear (DSS) tests were carried out to confirm whether the method can be adapted to DSS test on fine-grained soils: silty clay, plastic silt, and non-plastic silt. Results from post-cyclic DSS tests were interpreted by a modified method as adopted for post-cyclic triaxial tests. In particular, influence of plasticity index for fine-grained soils was emphasised. Findings obtained from the present study are: (i) the higher the plasticity index of fine-grained soils is, the less not stiffness ratio but strength ratio decreases with increment of a normalised excess pore water pressure; and (ii) post-cyclic strength and stiffness results from DSS tests agree well with those predicted by the method modified from a procedure used for triaxial test results.

Liquefaction characteristics of saturated sand under various dynamic loadings such as sinusoidal, wedge, increasing wedge and real earthquake loading are investigated focusing on the excess pore water pressure build up instead of liquefaction resistance strength in this paper. There are large differences between two types of earthquake loading - impact and vibration in liquefaction characteristics. The angle of phase change line of sinusoidal loading is very close to the vibration type, whereas the cumulative deviator stress and cumulative plastic strain are larger than two types of real earthquake loadings. On the other hand, the liquefaction characteristics of increasing wedge loadings are located in the range between vibration and impact earthquake loadings. It is concluded that the sinusoidal loading overestimates the resistance of soil under real earthquake loading. Based on results obtained, the increasing wedge loading can reflect the liquefaction behavior under real earthquake loadings more efficiently than sinusoidal loading based on equivalent uniform stress concept.

In soft ground, consolidation settlement is mainly consider. The primary consolidation settlement which is the time when the excess pore water pressure is completely dispersed and the secondary consolidation settlement which follows. Recently as the depth of consolidation layer increases the consideration of not only the primary consolidation settlement but also of the secondary consolidation settlement becomes a very important element. But up to the present there were only a few in-depth study of the secondary consolidation settlement performed. At present there are a lot of methods available when it comes to the improvement of soft soil. In this study, Preloading Method which is the most commonly used soft soil improvement method locally was used in order to investigate the method for the reduction of secondary consolidation settlement. The objective of this study is to determine the amount of preloading required to reduce secondary consolidation settlement and to determine whether secondary consolidation settlement using standard consolidation test.

Liquefaction is one of the most devastating geotechnical phenomena that severely damage vital structures and lifelines. Before constructing structures on problematic ground, it is necessary to improve the site and solve the geotechnical problem. Among ground improvement methods dealing with liquefaction, gravel drain (GD) columns and deep soil mixing (DSM) columns are popular. In this study, the results of a series of seismic experiments in a 1g environment on a structure located over liquefiable ground with different thicknesses reinforced with GD and DSM techniques were presented. The dynamic response of the reinforced ground system was investigated based on the parameters of subsidence rate, excess pore water pressure ratio, and maximum acceleration. The time history of the input acceleration was applied harmonically with an acceleration range of 0.2g and at frequencies of 1, 2, and 3 Hz. The results show that the thickness of the liquefiable layer and the frequency of the input motion have a significant impact on the effectiveness of the improvement method and all responses. Among the two techniques used, DSM in thick liquefied layers was much more efficient than GD in controlling the subsidence and rupture of the soil under the foundation. Maximum settlement values, settlement rate, and foundation rotation in the thicker liquefied layer at the 1-Hz input frequency were higher than at other frequencies. At low thicknesses, the dynamic behavior of the GD was closer to that of the DSM.

This paper represents a comparative study in which Gene Expression Programming (GEP), Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH), and multiple linear regressions (MLR) were utilized to derive new equations for the prediction of time-dependent bearing capacity of pile foundations driven in cohesive soil, technically called pile set-up. This term means that many piles which are installed in cohesive soil experience a noticeable increase in bearing capacity after a specific time. Results of researches indicate that side resistance encounters more increase than toe resistance. The main reason leading to pile setup in saturated soil has been found to be the dissipation of excess pore water pressure generated in the process of pile installation, while in unsaturated conditions aging is the major justification. In this study, a comprehensive dataset containing information about 169 test piles was obtained from literature reviews used to develop the models. to prepare the data for further developments using intelligent algorithms, Data mining techniques were performed as a fundamental stage of the study. To verify the models, the data were randomly divided into training and testing datasets. The most striking difference between this study and the previous researches is that the dataset used in this study includes different piles driven in soil with varied geotechnical characterization; therefore, the proposed equations are more generalizable. According to the evaluation criteria, GEP was found to be the most effective method to predict set-up among the other approaches developed earlier for the pertinent research.

In the case of the Pohang earthquake, which had a magnitude of 5.4 in 2017, geotechnical damages such as liquefaction and ground settlement occurred. The need for countermeasures has emerged, and experimental research in the Pohang area has continued. This study collected undisturbed samples from damaged fine-grained soil areas where ground settlement occurred in Pohang. Cyclic tri-axial tests for identifying the dynamic characteristics of soils were performed on the undisturbed samples, and the results were analyzed to determine the cause of ground settlement. As a result of the study, it was determined that in the case of fine-grained soils, ground settlement occurred because the seismic load as an external force was relatively more significant than the shear resistance of the very soft fine-grained soils, rather than due to an increase in excess pore water pressure.

한반도 중부지역에 위치한 청평양수발전소의 상부저수지는 준공후 16년이 경과한 사력댐으로 매일 수위 상승 및 저하를 경험하므로써, 제체의 거동이 일반 댐과는 달리 여러 가지 지반공학적 관심을 불러 일으키고 있다. 침투류에 대한 안정성을 판단하기 위하여 종래에는 심벽만을 대상으로 하여 저수지의 수위변동을 고수위 및 저수위의 두 경우로 고정시킨 정상상태의 해석을 주로 사용함에 따라 임의의 시간에서의 전체적인 침투현상 규명이 어려웠으나, 본 연구에서는 수위변동을 경계조건에 반영한 2차원 비정상류 유한요소해석을 댐 전체단면을 대상으로 수행하여 정상상태의 해석과 비교하였으며, 수위 변동에 따라 해당시간에서의 동수 경사, 침투력 벡타, 간극수압 등을 정량적으로 규명하였고, 산정된 침투수량을 계측치와 비필하였다. 그 결과 본 댐은 파이핑, 내부 침식 또는 제체 내부로의 투수 등에 대하여 안전하다고 판단된다.

연약지반상에 시공되는 용 배수로 굴착사면의 안정문제를 구명하기 위하여 굴착사면의 경사에 따른 지반의 거동을 한계평형법 및 유한요소법에 의하여 해석하고 실제 현장실험과 비교 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 수로에서 수위를 급강하시켰을 때 과잉공극수압의 영향으로 균열이 발생하였고, 그 이후에 공극수압의 감소는 완만하게 나타났다. 2. 연직굴착시는 굴착폭이 클수록 균열의 폭도 커지고, 굴착깊이가 깊어지면서 진행성 파괴형태를 나타냈다. 3. 연약지반에서 소규모의 굴착공사를 할 때 최소안전율은 굴착사면의 경사(1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2)보다는 점착력(1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, $3.0t/m^2$)에 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 4. 굴착이 진행되면서 소성영역이 발달하는 상부사면에서는 침하가 발생하였으며, 굴착저면에서는 히빙현상이 나타났다. 5. 최대전단응력은 저부지반으로 갈수록 크게 나타났으며, 이와같은 현상은 인장영역을 발생시켜서 국부적인 파괴 가능성을 증가시킴을 알 수 있었다. 6. 최대전단변형은 굴착깊이에 따라 증가하며, 굴착저면에서 가장 큰값을 나타내고 굴착사면의 중앙저부에 집중되는 분포형태를 나타냈다.
