A series of laboratory tests was carried out fur analyzing of seepage characteristics of two-layers embankment model which consists of gravel and earth fill layers. Gravel layers were built under the earth fill for a half and one-third width of earth fill of the model. Permeability of earth fill was ranged between $5.00\times10^{-5}\~3.00\times10^{-4}\;m/s$.. The tests were performed with hydraulic gradients(i), $0.10\~0.55$. From the test results, hydraulic head of earth fill with gravel layer was 1.6 times higher than that of earth fill without gravel layer. Seepage rate was increased up to $4\~22$ times and safety factor for piping was decreased to $13\~43\;\%$ comparing the earth fill with gravel layer to that without gravel layer. The gravel layer under the earth fill could, in general, give some serious seepage problems to seadike embankment.

In this study, the effect of tunnel advance rate on the seepage forces acting on the tunnel face was studied. The finite element program to analyze the groundwater flow around a tunnel with the consideration of tunnel advance rate was developed. Using the program, the parametric study for the effect of the tunnel advance rate and hydraulic characteristics of the ground on the seepage forces acting on the tunnel face was studied. From this study, it was concluded that the tunnel advance rate must be taken into consideration as an additional parameter to assess the seepage forces at the tunnel face and a rational design methodology for the assessment of support pressures required for maintaining the stability of the tunnel face was suggested for underwater tunnels.

To investigate the influence of different burial conditions on the seepage characteristics of loose sandstone in the leaching mining of sandstone uranium ore, this study applied different ground pressures and water pressures to rock samples at different burial depths to alter the rock's seepage characteristics. The permeability, pore distribution, and particle distribution characteristic parameters were determined, and the results showed that at the same burial depth, ground pressure had a greater effect on the reduction in permeability than water pressure. The patterns and mechanisms are as follows: under the influence of ground pressure, increasing the burial depth compresses the pores in the rock samples, decreases the proportion of effective permeable pores, and causes particle fragmentation, which blocks pore channels, resulting in a decrease in permeability. Under the influence of water pressure, increasing the burial depth expands the pores but also causes hard clay particles to decompose and block pore channels. As the burial depth increases, the particles eventually decompose completely, and the permeability initially decreases and then increases. In this experiment, the relationships between permeability and the proportion of pores larger than 0.15 ㎛ and the proportion of particles smaller than 59 ㎛ were found to be the most significant.

본 연구는 하천 보축제체 내부를 관통하여 설치되는 배수통문 구조물 연결부에서 누수가 발생하는 경우 구조물 측면의 침투 특성을 파악하고 이러한 측면 침투 거동에 따른 파이핑 등이 제체 안정에 미치는 영향을 분석한 수치해석적 연구이다. 측면 침투 거동을 고려하기 위해 동일한 모델에 대해 2차원 및 3차원 수치해석을 수행하였다. 그리고 측면 침투의 영향을 분석하고 수치 해석의 타당성을 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 제외지에 수문이 위치한 조건에서 누수가 발생하고 측면 침투를 고려하는 경우 구조물 누수지점 인근의 최대간극수압은 누수가 발생하지 않는 정상적인 침투 상태에 비해 절반 정도로 감소하였다. 특히 측면 침투를 고려하지 않는 경우 구조물 하부에서 과도한 간극수압 변화를 보였다. 구조물 상부와 하부의 동수경사는 고수위로 수위가 상승하면서 한계동수경사보다 큰 동수경사를 나타내고 있어 장기간 파이핑에 취약할 것으로 판단된다. 제내지에 수문이 위치하고 측면침투를 고려하지 않는 경우 동수경사와 침투유속 등 침투수의 영향은 측면침투를 고려하는 경우에 비해 과소하게 해석되었다. 수문이 제외지에 위치하고 누수가 발생하여 파이핑 발생 또는 제체 재료 유실이 우려되는 경우 측면 침투를 무시하게 되면 최대 동수경사는 상대적으로 작게 나타났다. 그리고 한계동수경사를 초과하는 기간도 짧은 시간대로 해석되었다. 결과적으로 측면 침투를 무시하게 되면 파이핑 발생 가능성을 과소하게 평가할 수 있어 주의해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The water supply tunnel has different characteristics which play a important role in stable water supply to the public from mechanical behavior and maintenance in comparison with road md railway tunnel. In this study, the present state and characteristics of water supply tunnels controlled by K-water have been investigated. The distribution of effective stresses that takes into account the effect of seepage forces induced by internal water pressure are estimated from closed-form and numerical method. The analysis of stress-strain behavior, seepage problem and hydrojacking for ensuring safety of existing water supply tunnel against neighboring new construction has been conducted.

During EPB shield tunnelling, construction speed and safety are severely affected by spewing. In this study, a theoretical seepage model is established to capture of the effects of screw conveyor geometry and turbulent flow on spewing. Experimental test results are used to verify the proposed theoretical seepage model. It is found that the seepage is greatly affected by the length of screw conveyor and soil permeability. The proposed model can increase the screw conveyor length and reduce soil discharge sections simultaneously, the permeability of treated muck thus decreases by one order of magnitude. By using the proposed theoretical seepage model, the criterion of critical soil permeability used to identify spewing is proposed. When the water head applied at tunnel face reaches 40 m and 50 m, the critical permeability coefficients of treated muck should be less than 10^-5 m/s and 10^-6 m/s to avoid spewing. For a given permeability coefficient of soil, the water flow rate is overestimated if structural characteristics of screw conveyor is not considered. Consequently, the occurrence of spewing is greatly overestimated, which increases construction cost substantially.

터널 굴착시 막장의 안정성은 주변지반 및 터널 지보재의 안정성과 아울러 가장 중요하게 평가되어야 할 요소 중의 하나이다. 특히 터널이 지하수위 하에서 시공될 경우 지하수 흐름에 따라 터널 막장에서 발생하게 되는 침투력은 터널 막장의 안정성에 심각한 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 본 침투력은 터널 설계 및 시공시 터널 막장의 안정성 측면에서 중요하게 평가되어야 할 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 지하수위 하에서 터널이 시공될 경우 발생하는 침투력과 관련하여 터널 굴진율이 본 칩투력에 미치는 영향에 대해서 언급하였다. 터널 굴진율을 고려한 지하수 흐름해석을 위하여 유한요소 해석 프로그램이 개발되었다. 본 프로그램을 이용하여 터널 굴진율 및 지반의 투수특성이 터널 막장에 작용하는 침투력에 미치는 영향을 매개변수 분석을 통하여 연구하였다. 본 연구결과, 터널 굴진율은 터널 막장에 작용하는 침투력을 평가하는데 있어서 중요한 추가된 요소로 고려되어야 하며, 결론적으로 터널 막장의 안정성을 유지하기 위한 지보압의 합리적인 산정을 위한 방법론을 제시할 수 있었다.

For the purpose of studying on the seepage characteristics of embedded gravel layer in embankment, laboratory model tests were carried out. The embedded layer under embankment was $19{\sim}26mm$ diameter of gravel and those embankment materials were Saemangum dredged sand, river sand and mixed(1:1) sand with dredged and river one. Those permeability coefficients of three different sands are $5.00{\times}10^{-5}$, $3.00{\times}10^{-4}$, $7.50{\times}10^{-5}m/s$, respectively. Seepage characteristics of these results are as follows; 1) The Reynolds number of water flow through embedded gravel layer in three different permeable soils is less then 10, it is laminar flow. 2) These flow velocities through embedded gravel layer in soils are in proportion to these hydraulic gradients, it is Darcy flow. 3) These Darcian permeability coefficients of water flow through embedded gravel layer in soils show as $2.95{\times}10^{-3}$, $1.38{\times}10^{-2}$, $3.33{\times}10^{-3}$m/s, respectively, by varying permeability of embankment soils and embankment lengths. It is approximately 100 times of those permeability coefficients of embankment materials.

감압정은 소규모 필댐과 같은 소규모 댐에서 침투수 관리에 효과가 있다고 보고되고 있지만 감압정의 효과에 대한 정량적인 연구는 드물고 설계기준 또한 전무한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 소규모 필댐의 침투수 처리 효과를 정량적으로 분석하고자 댐 제체와 기초지반의 조건에 따른 침투해석을 수행하여 침투수의 거동특성을 파악함으로써, 댐 제체 선단에 작용하는 양압력을 분석하였다. 감압정의 설치 여부에 따라 댐 하류부 제체 선단의 기초지반에 작용하는 양압력의 감소 효과를 분석하였으며, 분석결과 감압정은 기초지반에서 파이핑 및 제체 활동을 유발시킬 수 있는 간극수압을 저감시키는데 효과가 있는 것을 확인하였다.
