Although natural soil deposits hat.e been consolidated under Ko-stress system, the soil behavior has been predicted in laboratory from the results of tests performed on specimens consolidated under an isotropic stress s).stem. A series of undrained triaxial compression tests are performed on remolded specimens of clay consolidated under both types of stress systems, and the results at.e compared. One dimensional consolidation history induces anisotropy in clalrs, which is called as the stress induced anisotropy. However, if the clays would be reconsolidated under isotropic stress system. the anisotropy of undrained stress비h would be decreased with decrease of overconsolidation ratio. Undrained shear strength of norma]Iy consolidated clay depends on consolidation methods. Both the Rutledge hypothesis and the study of Henkel and Sowa do not agree with the test results obtained in this paper. In addition, a new theory is explained about the relationships between consolidation stresses, water contents and undiained shear strength.

Consolidation tests under various deformation modes were performed to investigate the effect of deformation modes on the coefficient of consolidation in the normally consolidated clay in remolded and undisturbed clay. The degree of soil anisotropy was evaluated using cross-anisotropic elasticity theory suggested by Graham et al.(1983). Experimental results showed that the vertical compressibility was larger than the horizontal compressibility by $12{\sim}21%$ for the remolded clay and by $23{\sim}60%$ for the undisturbed clay, respectively. The results of a series of consolidation tests under the specific deformation modes showed that the coefficient of consolidation under 1 dimensional vertical strain condition was larger than that under 3 dimensional strain condition due to different deformation mode. Furthermore, the coefficient of consolidation under 1 dimensional vertical strain condition was larger than that under 1 dimensional horizontal strain condition by $40{\sim}60%$ in undisturbed clay, which clearly emphasized the significant effect of soil anisotropy on the rate of consolidation. Consequently, it can be concluded that the anisotropic deformation modes of soils, especially naturally deposited clays, should be taken into account for more accurate evaluation of the coefficient of consolidation.

In this paper, utilizing void ratio-effective stress and void ratio-permeability relationships, a system of two nonlinear partial differential equations is derived to predict the consolidation characteristics of normally consolidated (NC) and overconsolidated (OC) soft clays subjected to cyclic loading. A developed feature of the coefficient of consolidation containing two key parameters is emerged from the differential equations. Effect of these parameters on the consolidation characteristics of soft clays is analytically discussed. It is shown that the ratios between the slopes of e-$log{\sigma}^{\prime}$ and e-log k lines in the NC and OC states play a major role in the consolidation process. In the companion paper, the critical assumptions made in the analytical discussion are experimentally verified and a numerical study is carried out in order to examine the proposed theory.

반복하중을 받는 정토의 거동은 단일하중에 의한 결과와 매우 상리하게 나타나며, 그중에서도 특히 간극수려의 거동은 상당히 중요하다. 본 연구는 반복하중 하에서의 점토에 대한 응력-변형 특성을 규명하기 위한 실험적 연구로서 하 중을 가하는 동안에 발생하는 간극수려에 대하여도 언급하였다. 시료는 삼축용기 안에서 24시간동안 등방려밀시켰으며, 삼축시험은 비배수상태 하에서 재성형된 시료에 때하여 압축파괴, 파괴반복, 비파괴 평형시험을 변형제어방법으로 수행하였다. 이에 따라 어느 특정한 시료의 거동을 뚜렷하게 서로 다른 두가지 양상으로 구분하는 반복응력의 한계치가 존재 함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The estimation of consolidation rate is one of the important factors in the construction on soft clayey deposits. A number of researches are carried out to predict the consolidation behavior in field, however, most of the results show the discrepancies between the prediction and observation. This paper analyzes consolidation behavior of normally consolidated clay in K/sub o/ condition with 2-dimensional drainage by use of the numerical methods. Elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analyses are compared in terms of the dissipation of excess pore pressure. These results are also compared with Terzaghi-Rendulic's equation that is implemented by finite difference method. The consolidation time calculated by using elastic model is found to be similar to the result of Terzaghi-Rendulic's equation. The consolidation predicted by MCC model takes more time than other cases. Initial increase of excess pore pressure in radial drainage can be shown, however, this phenomenon does not have a significant effect on tile final consolidation time.

연약점성토지반의 압밀침하량 산정을 위해 현장에서 널리 사용되고 있는 표준압밀시험이나 Skempton과 Bjerrum의 압밀침하량 보정법은 현장의 재하조건이나 변형양상이 1차원적이 아닌 경우에는 실제 흙 요소의 응력상태나 변형거동을 정확하게 모사하지 못하는 한계를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 응력경로의 자동제어가 가능한 자동화 삼축시험기를 이용하여 정규압밀상태로 성형된 kaolinite 시료에 대해 다양한 응력경로를 적용하는 실험적 연구를 수행하였으며, 그 결과로부터 합리적인 침하량 평가의 근거가 되는 다양한 응력경로하에서의 탄성변형, 압밀변형, 이차압축변형, 간극수압의 발생 및 소산 거동을 분석하였다. 이와 함께 이러한 응력경로시험의 결과를 기존의 일차원 압밀시험의 결과와 비교함으로써 기존 침하량 산정방법들의 한계와 문제점을 명확히 고찰하였다.

시화지역 퇴적층의 퇴적환경을 분석하여 압밀특성을 연구하였다. 퇴적환경은 입도분석, 퇴적구조, 지화학특성, 간 극수 화학분석, 탄소동위원소분석을 통해 분석하였으며 조사지점에서 연속적으로 채취한 불교란 시료에 대해 압밀시험과 이방압밀삼축시험(CKoUC)을 수행하여 과압밀현상을 조사하였다. 퇴적환경 분석 결과 상부의 실트/점토 혼합층은 해성환경에서 퇴적되었으며 하부의 모래층과 점토층은 하성환경에서 퇴적된 것으로 밝혀졌다. 해성퇴적층에서는 실트와 점토의 수평층리에 의한 퇴적구조가 우세하게 나타난다. 해성퇴적층 내에서 지질학적 침식이 발생했다는 뚜렷한 증거가 없음에도 불구하고 상부 해성퇴적층의 과압밀비는 1보다 크게 나오고 있다. 상부 해성퇴적층은 삼축 응력경로에서 정규압밀 점토와 동일한 거동을 보이며, 응력상태선도에서도 지질학적 의미의 정규압밀 영역에 도시된다. 해성퇴적층의 이러한 겉보기 과압밀 현상은 퇴적속도의 차이에 의해 발생되는 연약층의 구조, 즉 입자간 화학적 결합력에 의해 발생된 것으로 설명할 수 있다.

점토입자(粘土粒子)가 등방적으로 퇴적된 후 $K_0$-압밀(壓密)이력을 받으면 응력유도이방성(應力誘導異方性)을 지니게 되므로 정규압밀점토(正規壓密粘土)의 현위치거동(現位置擧動)을 조사하려면 $K_0$-압밀(壓密)에 의한 영향을 검토할 필요가 있다. 실내에서 반죽성형하여 얻은 점토공시체(粘土供試體)에 대하여 등방압밀 및 $K_0$-압밀을 실시한 후 비배수삼축압축시험 및 배수삼축압축시험을 실시하여 $K_0$-압밀이력의 영향을 검토하였다. $K_0$-압밀이력은 축차응력거동(軸差應力擧動)에 영향을 크게 미치나 유효주응력비거동(有効主應力比擧動)에는 영향이 작다. 특히 비배수시험의 초기변형단계에서는 축차응력거동(軸差應力擧動)에 영향을 크게 미친다. 따라서, $K_0$-압밀시료의 비배수강도거동은 등방압밀비배수시험으로 추정될 수 없다. 그러나, 최대유효주응력비(最大有效主應力比擧動)파괴기준에 의한 파괴포락선은 압밀이력 및 배수조건에 관계없이 유일한 곡선(曲線)이다.

Highly plastic clays in their normally consolidated state are not linear but are concave upwards. Thus their compression index deceases with the increase in consolidation pressure. Likeness the e - log ${\sigma}\;_{\upsilon}\;'$ curves of the silts are not linear but are convex upwards. In this paper, conducted consolidation test with four undisturbed field soil and found that their e - log ${\sigma}\;_{\upsilon}\;'$ plots are not linear. And analyzed difference of settlement between computed value with compression index($C_c$) and computed value with improved compression index($\mathbb{C}$).

Strength evaluation of soft soils is a formidable task because of difficulties in sampling, specimen preparation and setting in triaxial cells. In undrained triaxial testing, sampling disturbance, verticality of specimen and bedding effect give a great influence on shear strength measurements. In the other hand, shear wave measurements of specimens are less influenced by these factors. In this research, the bender elements were attached top cap and base pedestal of triaxial cell and shear wave velocities were measured. To initiate a methodology to evaluate shear strength indirectly by measuring shear wave velocity, a relationship between shear strength and shear wave velocity was developed with kaolinite specimens consolidated in the laboratory. Undrained shear strength turns out to increase linearly with shear wave velocity. Stress-strain curves can also be predicted with a hyperbolic model and shear wave measurements.
