High temperature confined compressive tests for thermomechanical failure criteria were carried out for Iksan and Whandeung granites. Authors suggested new polynomial type failure coefficient functions by which conventional Hoek-Brown failure criteria was extended to thermomechanical one. Obtained results are as follow; 1) Failure coefficients, m and s of Hoek and Brown's empirical failure criteria were decreased as temperature increased. 2) Theoretically calculated values by suggested equations and experimented ones by confined compressive test were well coincided.

Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건식은 암반구조물의 설계에 활발히 이용되고 있지만 암석의 비선형 강도특성과 중간주응력이 강도에 미치는 영향을 고려할 수 없다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 Hoek-Brown 파괴조건식이 제안되었으며 최근 중간주응력의 영향을 고려할 수 있는 여러 3-D 파괴조건식들이 제안되고 있다. 그러나 아직까지도 많은 암반공학적 설계과정에서 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건식을 이용하여 암반의 파괴 가능성이 평가되고 있고 대부분의 현장 기술자들도 내부마찰각과 점착력으로 암반의 강도특성을 이해하는데 익숙하다. 그러므로 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건식에 비해 개선된 비선형 혹은 3-D 파괴조건식의 접선마찰각 및 접선점착력이 구해지면 기존의 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건식을 활용하는 틀 안에서 개선된 파괴조건식들의 장점을 이용하는 것이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 접선마찰각과 접선점착력을 응력불변량으로 표시하는 방법을 제시하고 이를 일반화된 Hoek-Brown 파괴조건식과 Hoek-Brown 파괴조건식을 3-D로 확장시킨 HB-WW 파괴조건식에 적용하였다. 또한 파괴조건식의 중간주응력 의존성을 3차원 주응력 공간에서 기하학적으로 해석하는 새로운 접근법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법의 실행 사례를 통해 HB-WW 파괴함수의 접선마찰각과 접선점착력은 2-D 파괴함수의 경우와 달리 중간주응력의 크기에 상당한 영향을 받음을 보였다.

Determination of mobilized shear strength parameters (that identify stresses on the failure plane) is required for analyzing the stability by limit equilibrium method. Generalized Hoek-Brown (GHB) and Mohr-Coulomb (MC) failure criteria are usually used for obtaining stresses on the plane of failure. In the present paper, the applicability of these criteria for determining the stresses on failure plane is investigated. The comparison is based on stresses on the real failure plane which are obtained from the Mohr stress circle. To do so, 18 sets of data (consist of principal stresses and angle of failure plane) presented in the literature are used. In addition, the values account for (VAF) and the root mean square error (RMSE) indices were calculated to check the determination performance of the obtained results. Values of VAF and RMSE for the normal stresses on the failure plane evaluated from MC are 49% and 31.5 where for GHB are 55% and 30.5, respectively. Also, for the shear stresses on failure plane, they are 74% and 36 for MC, 76% and 34.5 for GHB. Results show that the obtained stresses and angles of failure plane for each criterion differ from real ones, but GHB results are closer to the empirical results. Also, it is inferred that results are affected by the failure envelope not real failure plane. Therefore, obtained shear strength parameters are not mobilized. Finally, a multivariable regressed relation is presented for determining the stresses on the failure plane.

암석의 파괴조건식으로 널리 이용되고 있는 Mohr-Coulomb식과 Hoek-Brown식은 중간주응력을 고려하지 못한다. 그러나 암석의 진삼축압축시험 결과에 의하면 암석의 강도는 중간주응력의 크기에 상당한 영향을 받는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 따라서 암반구조물의 정밀한 안정성 평가를 위해서는 중간주응력의 영향을 고려할 수 있는 파괴조건식이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 Jiang & Pietruszczak(1988)이 제안한 팔면체면 단면 형상함수를 이용하여 Hoek-Brown 파괴조건식에 근사하는 새로운 3차원 비선형 암석파괴조건식을 제안하였다. 대응되는 선형파괴조건식의 강도예측 결과와 비교검토를 통해 제안한 파괴조건식의 강도예측 성능을 평가하였다. 제안한 파괴조건식을 문헌에 보고된 6개 암종의 진삼축압축시험 결과에 적합시킨 결과 매우 우수한 적합성을 얻었다. 특히, 구속압이 낮은 영역의 진삼축압축강도를 포함한 자료에 대해서는 선형 파괴조건식에 비해 뛰어난 적합성을 보였다.

Slope stability analysis is an essential part of rock slope design. For highly fractured rock, the limit equilibrium method (LEM) based slope stability analysis with a circular failure surface is often carried out assuming the rock mass behaves more or less as a continuum. This paper examines first, the applicability of the finite-element method (FEM) based shear strength reduction (SSR) technique for highly fractured rock slope, and second the use of Mohr-Coulomb (MC) failure criterion in conjunction with generalized Hoek-Brown (HB) failure criterion. The numerical results on a number of cases are compared in terms of the factor of safety (FS). The results indicated that the FEM-based SSR technique yields almost the same FSs from LEM, and that the MC and HB failure criteria yield almost identical FSs when the strength parameters for MC failure criterion are obtained based on the modified HB failure criterion if and only if value of the Hoek-Brown constant $m_i$ is smaller than 10 and slope angle is smaller than 1:1, otherwise MC failure criteria over-estimate the factor of safety.

In deep open pit mines, slope stability is very important. Particularly, increasing the depths increase the risks in mines having weak rock mass. Blasting operations in this type of open pits may have a negative impact on slope stability. Several or combination of methods can be used in order to enable better analysis in this type of deep open-pit mines. Numerical modeling is one of these options. Many complex problems can be integrated into numerical methods at the same time and analysis, solutions can be performed on a single model. Rock failure criterions and rock models are used in numerical modeling. Hoek-Brown and Mohr-Coulomb terms are the two most commonly used rock failure conditions. In this study, mine planning and discontinuity conditions of a lignite mine facing two big landslides previously, has been investigated. Moreover, the presence of some damage before starting the study was identified in surrounding structures. The primary research of this study is on slope study. In slope stability analysis, numerical modeling methods with Hoek-Brown and Mohr-Coulomb failure criterions were used separately. Preparing the input data to the numerical model, the outcomes of patented-blast vibration minimization method, developed by co-author was used. The analysis showed that, the model prepared by applying Hoek-Brown failure criterion, failed in the stage of 10. However, the model prepared by using Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion did not fail even in the stage 17. Examining the full research field, there has been ongoing production in this mine without any failure and damage to surface structures.

본 연구에서는 2차원 유한차분 해석을 이용하여 절리암반에 시공된 말뚝기초의 선단지지력을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 암반의 절리상태를 고려할 수 있는 Hoek-Brown 항복규준을 이용하여 다양한 조건의 수치해석이 수행되었다. 넓은 범위의 절리상태를 고려하기 위하여 GSI를 주 매개변수로 설정하였고 말뚝 직경, 암반의 일축압축강도, Hoek-Brown 상수 $m_0$의 매개변수 영향을 살펴보았다. 본 연구결과 매개변수들의 변화에 따른 절리 암반에 설치된 말뚝기초의 선단지지력 변화 경향을 확인하였고 이러한 결과를 토대로 매개변수 분석에 따른 선단지지력 결과를 도출하였다.

The directional response of strength and deformation on the rocks acting by external loads is called by strength and deformability anisotropy, respectively. Peak strength and its failure criteria of anisotro rocks have been studied and reported. Many authors have investigated in detail the behavior of triaxial peak strength of anisotropic rocks(Jaeger 1960, McLamore & Gray 1967, Hoek & Brown 1980, Ramamurthy & Rao 1985). They concluded that the triaxial strength of anisotropic rocks varies according to the inclination of discontinuity in specimens. And, the minimun triaxial strength occurs in the specmen with 60° of inclination angle ; and specimens with 0° or 90° inclination have maximum triaxial strength. Based on the experimental result, the behavior triaxial strength is investigated. The triaxial compression tests due to the angle bedding plane have been conducted and the material constants, 'm' and 's', cohesion and angle of friction and nonlinear strength parameters to fit for the failure criterion were derived from the regression analysis. And, the experimental date are employed to examine three existing failure criteria for peak strength, provided by Jaeger, McLamore and Hoek & Brown and Ramamurthy & Rao. For a shale, the suitability of the failure criteiria of triaxial peak strength for anisotropic rocks is discussed.

Uncertainties in geomechanical input parameters which mainly related to inappropriate data acquisition and estimation due to lack of sufficient calibration information, have led wellbore instability not yet to be fully understood or addressed. This paper demonstrates a workflow of employing Quantitative Risk Assessment technique, considering these uncertainties in terms of rock properties, pore pressure and in-situ stresses to makes it possible to survey not just the likelihood of accomplishing a desired level of wellbore stability at a specific mud pressure, but also the influence of the uncertainty in each input parameter on the wellbore stability. This probabilistic methodology in conjunction with Monte Carlo numerical modeling techniques was applied to a case study of a well. The response surfaces analysis provides a measure of the effects of uncertainties in each input parameter on the predicted mud pressure from three widely used failure criteria, thereby provides a key measurement for data acquisition in the future wells to reduce the uncertainty. The results pointed out that the mud pressure is tremendously sensitive to UCS and SHmax which emphasize the significance of reliable determinations of these two parameters for safe drilling. On the other hand, the predicted safe mud window from Mogi-Coulomb is the widest while the Hoek-Brown is the narrowest and comparing the anticipated collapse failures from the failure criteria and breakouts observations from caliper data, indicates that Hoek-Brown overestimate the minimum mud weight to avoid breakouts while Mogi-Coulomb criterion give better forecast according to real observations.

일반화된 Hoek-Brown 암반파괴조건식을 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴조건에 기초한 암반구조물 해석법에 적용시키기 위해서는 등가 마찰각과 등가 점착력을 계산하는 과정이 필요하다. Balmer(1952)이론에 기초한 기존의 접선 순간마찰각과 순간점착력 계산식은 최소주응력 ${\sigma}_3$의 함수로 표시되므로 등가 강도정수의 정수압 의존성 및 응력경로 의존성을 이해하는 데 적합지 않다. 이 연구에서는 응력불변량을 이용하여 일반화된 Hoek-Brown식의 접선 순간마찰각과 순간점착력 계산하는 방법을 제시하여 기존의 방법이 갖는 단점을 극복하였다. 제시된 방법을 이용한 예제 해석을 통해 접선 순간마찰각과 순간점착력의 정수압 의존특성 및 파괴곡면의 팔면체 단면에서 Lode각의 의존성을 고찰하였다. 접선 순간마찰각은 삼축신장 응력조건에서 가장 크며, 접선 순간점착력은 삼축압축 응력조건에서 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. 접선 순간마찰각과 순간점착력의 정수압 및 Lode각 의존성은 GSI 값이 큰 양호한 암반에서 상대적으로 큰 것으로 나타났다.
