Geotechnical sites in urban areas may have embedded structures such as utility lines and underground concrete structures, which cause difficulties in site investigation. This study is a preliminary research to establish knowledge base for developing an optimal technique for site investigation in urban areas. Surface-wave method and resistivity survey, which are frequently adopted for non-destructive site-investigation for geotechnical sites, were investigated to characterize effects of adjacent structures. In case of surface wave method, patterns of wave propagation were investigated for typical sets of multi-layered geotechnical profiles by numerical simulation based on forward modeling theory and field experiments for small-size model tests and real-scale tests in the field. In case of resistivity survey, 3-D finite element analyses and field tests were performed to investigate effects of adjacent concrete structures. These theoretical and experimental researches for surface-wave method and resistivity survey resulted in establishing physical criteria to cause interference of adjacent structures in site investigation at urban areas.

This paper investigated the dispersion characteristics of horizontal surface waves as means to apply conversional SASW techniques. To verify this proposal, 3D finite element analysis and Transfer matrix solution were performed. SH wave(Love waves) has the some advantages in comparison with Rayleigh wave. Representatively, Love wave has a characteristics not affected by compression wave. These characteristics have the robust applicability for the surface wave investigation techniques. In this study, for the purpose of employing Love wave in the SASW method, the dispersion characteristics of the Love wave was extensively investigated by the theoretical and numerical approaches. The 3-D finite element and transfer matrix analyses for the half space and two-layer systems were performed to determine the phase velocities from Love wave as well as from both the vertical and the horizontal components of Rayleigh wave. Preliminary, numerical simulations and theoretical solutions indicated that the dispersion characteristics of horizontal surface wave(Love waves) can be sufficiently sensitive and appliable to SASW techniques.

지하철 터널 시공, 지하공간 시공, 대심도 굴착 등과 같이 도심지에서의 토목구조물 설계와 시공에 있어서 큰 어려움 중의 하나는 도심지 지반조사이다. 여러 가지 지장물, 전기 잡음, 교통 진동 등과 같은 자연적, 인위적 장애물로 인하여 어느 지반조사 기법이든지 그 결과의 신뢰성은 그리 높지 않은 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같이 현실적 요구가 높은 고품질 도심지 지반조사 기법의 개발을 목표로 하여 선행연구를 수행하였고, 일차적으로 HiRAS(Hybrid Integration of Resistivity and Surface Wave Velocities) 라고 하는 표면파-전기비저항 병합기법을 개발하였다. HiRAS 기법은 표면파 기법인 CapSASW 기법과 전기비저항 기법인 PDC-R 기법을 병합한 것으로서, 지반 매질의 강성 평가에 우수한 CapSASW 기법의 장점과, 전기잡음에 대한 내성과 지층변화 평가에 우수한 특성을 가진 PDC-R 기법의 장점을 동시에 활용하고자 한 것이다. 표면파 기법과 전기비저항 기법을 동시에 활용하는 역산해석의 측면에서는 표면파 기법의 탄성파 속도와 전기비저항 시험의 전기비저항 간의 부지고유관계를 이용하여 병합역산을 수행하는 전략을 채택하였다. 또한 HiRAS 기법 개발과정에서 부차적으로 지반매질의 포아송비 분포를 2차원으로 평가할 수 있는 성과도 도출하였다.

Experimental and numerical investigations were conducted to study the performance of a surface-fixed horizontal porous wave barrier in regular waves. The characteristics of the reflection and transmission coefficients, energy dissipation, and vertical wave force were examined versus different porosities of the barrier. Numerical simulations based on 3D Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with standard low-Re k-ε turbulent closure and volume of fluid approach were accomplished and compared with the experimental results conducted in a 2D wave tank. Experimental measurements and numerical simulations were shown to be in satisfactory agreement. The qualitative wave behavior propagating over a horizontal porous barrier such as wave run-up, wave breaking, air entrapment, jet flow, and vortex generation was reproduced by CFD computation. Through the discrete harmonic decomposition of the vertical wave force on a wave barrier, the nonlinear characteristics were revealed quantitatively. It was concluded that the surface-fixed horizontal barrier is more effective in dissipating wave energy in the short wave period region and more energy conversion was observed from the first harmonic to higher harmonics with the increase of porosity. The present numerical approach will provide a predictive tool for an accurate and efficient design of the surface-fixed horizontal porous wave barrier.

대형 사력댐의 내진성능 평가에서 필히 요구되는 입력상수는 사력재료, 코아매질의 전단파 속도이다. 이를 표면파 시험으로 평가하기 위해서는 사력골재의 불연속, 매질의 비균질, 사면 경계면 등 표면파 시험결과의 신뢰도를 떨어뜨리는 조건을 극복해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 표면파시험의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 기존 빔형성기법의 원리를 응용한 SBF (Short-Array Beamforming) 기법을 제안하였다. SBF 기법은 3~9 m의 짧은 측선과 원거리 발진원을 이용함으로써, 빔형성기법 고유의 장점인 측정자료의 자동화분석뿐만 아니라 근접장 문제의 해결, 국부적 이상대의 발견 등의 기능을 가지도록 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 SBF 기법과 IRF(Impulse-Response Filtration) 기법을 활용하여 대형 사력댐의 전단파속도를 신뢰성 있게 평가하는 방법을 정립하였다. 정립된 기법은 사력댐의 사력재료와 유사한 암버럭으로 매립 성토된 철도 노반에서 다운홀 시험, CapSASW (Common-Array-Profiling SASW) 시험과의 비교를 통하여 그 신뢰성과 실용성을 검증하였다.

Accurate simulation of free-surface wave flows around a ship is very important for better hull-form design. In this paper, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code which is based on the open source libraries, OpenFOAM, was developed to predict the wave patterns around a ship. Additional anti-diffusion source term for minimizing a numerical diffusion, which was caused by convection differencing scheme, was considered in the volume-fraction transport equation. The influence of the anti-diffusion source term was tested by applying it to free-surface wave flow around the Wigley and KCS model ships. In results, the wave patterns and hull wave profiles of the Wigley and KCS model ships for various anti-diffusion coefficients showed quite close patterns. While, the band width of the water volume-fraction values between 0.1 to 0.9 at the Wigley and KCS model hull surfaces was narrowed by considering the anti-diffusion term. From the results, anti-diffusion source term decreased free-surface smearing.

Recently, The surface-wave method has widely been used for the site investigation due to the economic advantage and the improved reliability. The typical surface-wave methods currently available are SASW method, MASW method and CSW method. The CSW method has a potential of high-quality measurement, but its inherent problems limited its use to the special cases such as the compaction-quality control. The CSW method uses the steady-state harmonic vibration for the seismic source as in the steady-state Rayleigh-wave method, which is superior to the impact source used for other methods. This study proposed a new procedure to solve the inherent problems of the CSW method and to improve the reliability of the CSW measurements. To verify the validity of the proposed in this study, the SASW results were compared with the CSW results for the numerical simulation of the CSW testing. Also, the feasibility of the proposed method was verified using the field measurements at a geotechnical site.

In order to obtain more reliable data for the information on the ground, a new site Investigation method is proposed, in which seismic waves (S-waves) generated by the Swedish Ram Sounding Test (SRS) are used. It is indicated that the energy transferred from the hammer to the rod in SRS's is much more stable, compared to SPT's. A series of SRS with measurements of seismic waves at the ground surface were carried out to clarify the characteristics of seismic wave propagation in the ground. As the results of comparison between seismic S-wave amplitudes and $N_d$ (blow count for 20 cm penetration in SRS), it was found that amplitudes of S-waves generated by SRS correlate well with $N_d$. The amplitude of the S-wave is thought to be more adequate parameter for the soil strength and rigidity than $N_d$.

The water wave characteristics of Bragg reflections from a train of fixed floating pontoon breakwaters was studied numerically. A numerical model of boundary discretization type was developed to calculate the wave field. The model was verified by comparing to analytical data in literature and good agreements were achieved. Series of parametric studies were conducted systematically to investigate the dependence of the reflected coefficients by the Bragg scattering on the design variables, including the spacing between the breakwaters, the total number of installed breakwaters, the draft and width do the breakwater, and wave length. Certain wave characteristics of the Bragg reflections were observed and discussed in details which might be of help for practical engineering applications in shoreline protection from incident waves.

The increasing capabilities of the computers enable us to utilize various numerical schemes for the time-domain simulations concerned with 3-dimensional free-surface wave problems. There are still difficulties to solve such kind of problems, however. That's because long time simulations with large computational domain are needed in time-domain analysis. So, we need faster and more efficient numerical schemes to get the solutions practically for these problems. In this paper, a high-order spectral/boundary-element method is used for the numerical investigation of physics involved in wave-body interaction. This method is one of the most efficient numerical methods by which the nonlinear gravity waves can be simulated and hydrodynamic forces also can be calculated in time-domain. To get the robust study in these topics, various numerical tests are performed and compared with others' works.
