Under foundation shock mats have been used in the current practice in order to reduce/damp vibrations received by buildings through the surrounding environment. Although some investigations have been made on under foundation shock mats performance, their effectiveness in the reduction of railway induced-vibrations has not been fully studied, particularly with the consideration of underneath soil media. In this regard, this research is aimed at investigating performance of shock mat used beneath building foundation for reduction of railway induced-vibrations, taking into account soil-structure interaction. For this purpose, a 2D finite/infinite element model of a building and its surrounding soil media was developed. It includes an elastic soil media, a railway embankment, a shock mat, and the building. The model results were validated using an analytical solution reported in the literature. The performance of shock mats was examined by an extensive parametric analysis on the soil type, bedding modulus of shock mat and dominant excitation frequency. The results obtained indicated that although the shock mat can substantially reduce the building vibrations, its performance is significantly influenced by its underneath soil media. The softer the soil, the lower the shock mat efficiency. Also, as the train excitation frequency increases, a better performance of shock-mats is observed. A simplified model/method was developed for prediction of shock mat effectiveness in reduction of railway-induced vibrations, making use of the results obtained.

본 연구에서는 먼저 지표면을 비롯하여 구조물 곳곳에 가속도계가 설치된 깊은 직접기초 구조물 2개를 선정하였다. 이어서 구조물에 기록된 실지진 데이터를 사용하여 주파수 영역에서 Transmissibility 함수를 사용하는 기법으로 기초 위치에서와 자유지표면에서의 지반운동 사이의 차이를 산정하였고 실지진기록을 사용하여 산정된 이 변환함수를 기존의 간편식과 비교하여 검증하였다. 비록 강성 기초저면, 연직으로 전파되는 지반운동을 가정하는 간편식의 전제조건은 실제 조건과 차이가 있지만, 그럼에도 불구하고 실지진기록으로부터 산정된 변환함수와 매우 양호한 유사성을 보여주므로 간편식을 설계실무에서 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문에서는 기초지반의 강성이 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 영향에 대한 내용을 다루었다. 기초지반의 강성이 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 근본적인 메카니즘을 고찰하기 위해 보강토 옹벽에 대한 축소모형실험을 수행하였으며 축소모형실험 결과의 타당성을 검토하고 모형실험에서 다룰 수 없었던 다양한 조건을 고려함과 아울러서 현장옹벽 응력수준의 거동을 고찰하기 위해 가상의 현장옹벽에 대해 유한요소해석을 이용한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다. 모형실험 및 유한요소해석 결과에 의하면 기초지반의 강성이 감소할수록 벽체의 변위는 현저히 증가하며, 이러한 벽체변위 증가 현상은 보강토체 내부변형보다는 보강토체의 강체 거동으로 인해 야기되는 메카니즘을 보이는 것으로 나타나 기초지반에 관련된 문제를 외적안정성의 개념에서 다루고 있는 현 설계기준은 타당한 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서는 모형실험 및 유한요소해석 결과를 종합하여 실무적 측면에서의 중요성을 다각적으로 고찰하였다.

본 연구는 vertical drain well 설치지반의 보다 더 실제적이고 합리적인 변형해석을 목적으로 drain well 타설로 인하여 발생하는 well 주변 점토층의 교란(smear)영향, well과 인접점토층의 강성차이에서 오는 접합면 변형의 불연속거동 표현이 가능한 유한요소해석 방법을 제시하고자 하는데 목적이 있다. 유한요소해석의 구성은 변형의 지배방정식으로서 Biot의 압밀이론을 근간으로 여기에 흙의 구성식과 접합요소이론을 결합하여 이루어진다. 본 논문에서 제시한 해석법의 정도는 Siriwardane과 Ghaboussi 등이 사용한 지반에 적용하여 검증한 바 있다. 여기에서는 이를 다시 모델지반과 실제지반에 대해서 유한요소해석법을 적용하여 강성이 다른 이질재료간 경계에서의 불연속변형의 영향에 따른 지반내 거동특성을 살펴보고 이것을 함께 고려한 해석법의 정도를 알아보고자 한 것이다. 그 결과는 침하에 있어서 매우 만족스럽다고 보아지지만 간극수압등에는 잘 일치하지 않는 점이 있어 앞으로의 더 많은 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

This article deals with the dynamic analysis in pad concrete foundation containing Silica nanoparticles (SiO₂) subject to seismic load. In order to control the foundation smartly, a piezoelectric layer covered the foundation. The weight of the building by a column on the foundation is assumed with an external force in the middle of the structure. The foundation is located in soil medium which is modeled by spring elements. The Mori-Tanaka law is utilized for calculating the equivalent mechanical characteristics of the concrete foundation. The Kevin-Voigt model is adopted to take into account the structural damping. The concrete structure is modeled by a thick plate and the governing equations are deduced using Hamilton's principle under the assumption of higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). The differential quadrature method (DQM) and the Newmark method are applied to obtain the seismic response. The effects of the applied voltage to the smart layer, agglomeration and volume percent of SiO₂ nanoparticles, damping of the structure, geometrical parameters and soil medium of the structure are assessed on the dynamic response. It has been demonstrated by the numerical results that by applying a negative voltage, the dynamic deflection is reduced significantly. Moreover, silica nanoparticles reduce the dynamic deflection of the concrete foundation.

As structure-soil interaction analysis for the seismic analysis of structures requires a nonlinear analysis of a structure-soil system considering the inelastic characteristics of soil layers nonlinear analyses of the foundation-soil system with the horizontal excitation were performed considering the nonlinear soil conditions for the nonlinear seismic analysis of structures. Stiff soil profile of SD and soft soil profile of SE specified in UBC were considered for the soil layers of a foundation and Ramberg-Osgood model was assumed for the nonlinear characteristics of soil layers. Studies on the changes of dynamci stiffnesses and damping rations of surface and embedded foundations depending on foundation size soil layer depth and piles were performed to investigate the effects of the nonlinear soil layer on the horizontal and rotational dynamic stiffnesses and damping ratios of the foundation-soil system According to the study results nonlinear prperties of a soil laryer decreeased horizontal and rotational linear stiffnesses and increased damping ratios largely Effects of foundation size soil layer depth and piles were also significant suggesting the necessity of nonlinear seismic analyses of structures.

A piled raft foundation is one of the systems used to reduce the settlement of structures. However, the general design method for a piled raft foundation system assumes that the piles only support external loads, which exclude the bearing capacity of the raft itself. In this study, an experimental model test was performed to evaluate the raft capacity for the external load on the sand. Additionally, a part of the sandy ground under the raft was replaced with a gravel mat to reinforce the piled raft foundation system and increase the bearing capacity. Then, parametric studies of the reinforced ground were performed to determine the displacement and load-sharing ratio of the piled raft foundation system.

Full scale size model tests of the top-base foundation was performed in siwha marine clay and the site measurement results were compared with the analytical results from finite different programs, FLAC-2D to investigate the behavior of top-base foundation. The stress distribution obtained from the numerical analysis for the various types of foundation were compared and analysed during the application of allowable load as well as yield load. It was found that the top-base foundation prevents the lateral deformation of soft ground and stress dispersion effect to reduce the surface settlement, and that the foundation creates uniform stress distribution around it, therefore increasing bearing capacity.

Higher-order theories are very important to investigate the mechanical properties and behaviors of nanoscale structures. In this study, a free vibration behavior of SiNW resting on elastic foundation is investigated via Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. Silicon Nanowire (SiNW) is modeled as simply supported both ends and clamped-free Euler-Bernoulli beam. Pasternak two-parameter elastic foundation model is used as foundation. Finite element formulation is obtained nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. First, shape function of the Euler-Bernoulli beam is gained and then Galerkin weighted residual method is applied to the governing equations to obtain the stiffness and mass matrices including the foundation parameters and small scale parameter. Frequency values of SiNW is examined according to foundation and small scale parameters and the results are given by tables and graphs. The effects of small scale parameter, boundary conditions, foundation parameters on frequencies are investigated.
