The low temperature and temperature difference (variation) may cause to deteriorate the integrity of tunnel constructed in cold region. An insulation material was developed and applied to the tunnel lining surface to keep the temperature of tunnel lining constant in spite of temperature variation at outdoor. The lining surface where the insulation material applied showed the less sensitive to temperature variation than non-applied lining surface.

20% of total energy use to sustain temperature of building inside. In this reasons, researchers effort to improve the thermal insulation capacity with new wall system. Using appropriate materials and consisting new wall system should considered in energy saving design. OSB(Oriented strand board), Larch lining board used to consist wall system. $2{\sim}6$ Larch lining board has tongue & groove shape for preventing moisture. Comparing with gypsum board and green timber lining board as interior sheathing material, temperature difference of Green timber wall system was bigger than temperature difference of gypsum board wall system. This aspects indicate that Green timber wall system was revealed higher thermal insulation property than gypsum board wall system. Gypsum board portion transfer heat easily because temperature difference gradient of gypsum board wall system was smaller than OSB wall system. Total temperature variation shape of G-4-S and G-6-S show similar model but, temperature variation shape in green timber wall portion assume a new aspect. The purpose of this study was that possibility of thermal insulation variation and new composition of wall system identify to improve thermal insulation performance. In the temperature case, this study shows possibility of improving thermal insulation performance. Humidity, sunshine and wind etc. should considered to determine building adiabatic properties.

In the cold region, the frozen damages in highway tunnels and regular road tunnels have widely been investigated and reported, but the measurement has not been sufficient made. The average temperature in cold region is below the zero, resulting in that the damage due to freezing at the entrance/exit of tunnel is more severe than in the middle of tunnel. In this study, a heating element was developed to prevent the tunnel lining from being frozen by enforcing to increase the temperature of tunnel lining. Then field tests using the developed heating element were performed and it was ensured that the temperature of tunnel lining increased after a certain time.

In this study, the behavior of urban subway tunnels is measured using instrumentation sensors installed in the lining concrete inside subway tunnels in order to analyze their behavior according to temperature variations. It is observed that the stresses of the concrete lining, tunnel convergence, and cracks change according to the temperature variations. However, the crack deformation differs depending on the size and status of the crack. In addition, this study proposes a correction formula for the lining stress and tunnel convergence through numerical analyses of the concrete lining according to the temperature variations. The results of this research can be used in the tunnel maintenance considering the tunnel behavior depending on the temperature variations in the tunnel.

This paper is a study on squeal noise simulation under the consideration of temperature and pressure dependent material properties of friction material. For this, data of pressure and temperature dependent material properties of lining is achieved by using lining data base and exponential curve fit. Complex eigenvalue analysis is performed for predicting squeal noise frequency and instability and chassis dynamo test is performed for achieving squeal noise frequency, sound pressure level, occurrence temperature & pressure. Initial multi models are composed for considering complex interface conditions such as pad ear-clip, piston-housing and guide pin-torque member. The simulation result of base models is compared with the test result. Squeal noise simulation under the consideration of temperature and pressure dependent material properties of friction material is performed and analyzed using multi models. And additional condition is disc material property variation. Entire simulation conditions are combined and analyzed. Finally, this paper proposes direction of the warm squeal noise model.

This paper presents an experimental study on a new potential geothermal energy source obtained from tunnel structures. An "energy textile", which is a textile-type ground heat exchanger, was fabricated between a shotcrete layer and a guided drainage geotextile in the tunnel lining system. To examine the long-term thermal behavior of the energy textile, the difference in temperatures of the inlet and outlet fluid circulating through the heat exchange pipe within the energy textile was monitored using a constant-temperature water bath. Daily heat exchange rate of the energy textile during cooling operation was estimated from the measured temperatures of the inlet and outlet fluid through the energy textile. The air and ground temperature was also continuously monitored. The operation of the energy textile as a ground heat exchanger was simulated using a 3D numerical CFD model (Fluent). The thermal conductivity of shotcrete and concrete lining components and temperature variation of air in the tunnel were incorporated in the model. The numerical analysis shows a good agreement with the long-term monitoring result.

Many problems exist in the current cast in place concrete lining used in domestic tunnel construction. Especially, the crack of tunnel lining brings about a social and economic problem. It has a lot of influence on stability of structure and the fine finish of lining. So enormous repair-work and reinforcement of tunnel lining could occur an running out of government's budget. In our country, there are domestic production enterprises which produce a special pre-cast concrete product, but the technical level of them is still far behind compared to developed countries. Also, optimum steam coring method is important for the production of high quality product. But there is no regulation of steam curing method in our country. This study is to investigate the properties of PC panel according to the variation of steam curing conditions such as presteaming time and rate of temperature rise. The result shows that the optimum presteaming time of steam curing method in PC panel is more than 1 hour and the desirable rate of temperature in curing chamber is about $20^{\circ}C/hr$.

An inverse calculation method to obtain sectional forces, axial force and flexural moment of a tunnel concrete lining was developed by utilizing convergence measurements acquired at the maintenance stage. To monitor the behavior of the lining, DOCS system was applied to a subway tunnel section. The method was proved to be effective, yielding the same results as measured forces of buried instruments. Many effects such as vibration of sensors, vibration due to test train operation, the variation of temperature and high voltage were checked and a new management scheme for tunnel maintenance was proposed.

Gangwon Province, located in the northeastern part of South Korea, is the coldest area in South Korea with 90% of the total area as mountainous. Therefore, tunnel damage has been reported continuously in winter. But there has been lack of researches on frost heave occurring behind tunnel lining. In this study, numerical analysis was conducted to investigate the frost depth in road tunnel constructed in Gangwon province. Based on the database on road tunnel and weather in Gangwon province, a standard tunnel shape and geotechnical properties of ground was determined. And then thermal analysis for the frost depth according to the temperature change and ground conditions were conducted. Analysis result showed that the sensitivity to frost heave of metamorphic rock and sedimentary rock is higher than sand. Lower initial ground temperature leads to deeper frost depth and consequently increases frost damage. In addition, lining thickness, specific heat capacity, and thermal conductivity also affect greatly on the variation of frost depth.

Steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) is widely used for tunnel lining structure such as shot-crete in NATM tunnel and segment in TBM tunnel. In tunnel fire accidents, structural performance of a lining is very important because the lining is the structure that directly exposed to fire. In this study, the effects of high temperatures, mix ratios and types on failure pattern, DPT tensile strength and coefficient of variation were investigated through Double Punch Tests (DPT) of SFRC subjected to high temperatures. In the results, it is confirmed that the residual DPT tensile strength increases as for SFRC and this is more in SFRC with higher mix ratio. But, the equation for evaluation of DPT tensile strength does not involve the number of failure surfaces SFRC specimens subjected to high temperatures, therefore, it is required to investigate more fracture energy in DPT tests.
