In order to evaluate the necessity for the support during the excavation of the transport drift and use the data for design applications, laboratory testings of mechanical properties of rock samples and engineering rock mass classifications on this study site were performed. The values of RMR and Q-system are 68 and 11.8, respectively. Since these results were evaluated as good, this rock mass were determined to be unsupported. Full face excavation method was determined to be suitable for excavating this drift. In case of excavation, smooth blasting techniques must be carried out at the wall rock and the crown. However, considering the blast vibration etc. that have an effect on the surrounding rock mass, approximately less than 9kg of explosive charges per blast should be maintained.

This paper presents the results of deformation measurement and numerical analysis carried out to study the behaviour of the rock mass around large underground oil storage caverns. Displacements during excavation have been monitored using borehole extensometers which had been installed before the excavation of caverns proceeded. Numerical analysis has been carried out to examine the three-dimensional behaviour of rock and the face advance effect. The input parameters for this analysis were determined from the results of laboratory and field tests. The deformation modulus of the rock mass was determined from plate loading test at the site and in-situ stresses were measured from the overcoring method with USBM deformation gauge. The results from this study gave a clear picture for three-dimensional behaviour of the rock mass, hence would be used for the optimum design.

Rock fragmentation with plasma blasting technique has advantageous properties in contrast to the conventional blasting method in controlling of flying rocks and ground vibrations, when residents are complaining or surrounding structures stay in protection from blasting operations. The experiences show in urban construction works that the plasma blasting is the most possible method to prevent damages and minimize adverse environmnetal impacts. The fragmentation energy level is evaluated by numerical simulation using PFC-2D for various drill hole pattern and tested accordingly to get the feasibility. The energy output of plasma blasting system has been improved to a level of 1 MJ, which can break a 2~3 ㎥ granite boulder or 1.5 m height bench face. Measurements are carried out to get the ground vibration level and propagation equation, so that the control of the blasting operations can be performed more precisely and safely.

The stability study on the rock slope where have produced failures in Boryung dam site was evaluated using the streonet analysis techniques. SMR(Slope Mass Rating) approach which is suitable for preliminary assessment of slope stability in rock was also carried out for rating rock mass. The 3-4 major discontinuity sets are distributed and all type of failure(plane, wedge and toppling failure) are presented in this slope face. The dip of slope must be lowered to friction angle(26degree), otherwise the possibility of plane and toppling faiue will always exist in this slope.

The performance of two vertical-blade eliminators (V1, V2) and two horizontal-blade ones (H1, H2) for absorption chillers were tested in terms of pressure drop and refrigerant entrainment. The test was carried out using a wind tunnel with a cross section of 300 mm$\times$300 mm. The pressure drop of four eliminators tested was found to be in the rage of 1.0~2.7mm $H_2O$ at the face velocity of 2m/s. In the refrigerant entrainment test the vertical-blade eliminators showed much better performance than the horizontal-blade ones. The horizontal-blade eliminators showed satisfactory results at the air velocity of 2m/s but exceeded the limit value at 3 m/s. Since the cooling capacity of a machine is lowered by about 2.5% at the pressure drop of 1 m $H_2O$, more researches are required to reduce the pressure drop in the eliminator.

This study is to summarize the contents for the investigation and design of the construction for oil storage. Since underground caverns are large scale, in their construction one should consider the mechanical stability of caverns and the economic view of construction. On the basis of them, cavern's section and layout were determined and water curtains were designed to maintain hydraulic equilibrium so that gases were sealed tightly. Also the supporting criterial for rock bolt and stotcrete were determined by means of the classification of rock masses and the results of finite element method. The criteria of grouting reinforcement were presented according to the results of injection test in the pilot holes of working face.

Comprehensive monitoring system for the safe and economical excavation of underground opening has been established by employing the 3 independent models each of which can i) predict the ultimate convergence, ii) assess the in-situ stresses and the elastic modulus of excavating rock, iii) calculate the time-dependent opening behavior with respect to the face advance rate and support pressure at the equilibrium state. Accuracy of each model has been verified through illustrative examples. The step-by-step procedures of comprehensive monitoring system for analyzing the rock behavior and the optimum support installation has been explained. The capability and applicability of this system to the practical excavation also has been discussed.

본 연구에서는 수평보강재로 보강된 터널 막장의 거동에 관한 매개변수 연구결과를 다루었다. 매개변수 연구에서는 막장주변의 3차원 응력-변형율 거동을 보다 효율적으로 모델링하기 위해 3차원 유한요소해석 모형을 적용하였으며 보강패턴에 따른 막장의 거동을 고찰하기 위해 다양한 경계조건에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과를 토대로 막장의 응력해방-변위거동의 관계를 고찰하였으며, 보강패턴과 막장 변위의 정성${\cdot}$정량적인 관계를 제시함과 아울러서 향후 수행될 반경험적 설계/해석법의 개발을 위한 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 한편, 해석결과 보강재 타설수 및 길이 등 각 보강설계 인자에 대한 임계치가 존재하는 것으로 나타났으며 따라서 보다 안전하고 경제적인 설계를 위해서는 이를 고려하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents a geomechanical framework for designing and optimizing layout patterns of cutterheads for rock Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs), aiming to enhance their engineering performance. By examining the forces and moments exerted by rock, the study addresses geometric constraints associated with cutter boxes in key regions of the cutterhead, including the center, face, and gage areas, as well as the three-dimensional effects of cutterhead curvature on the geometric constraints of the back of the cutter boxes in the gage area. Novel formulas are proposed for determining the center points of cutter boxes and calculating both the minimum angular spacing and distance spacing between consecutive cutter boxes along a spiral path. The paper outlines an optimized layout design process for four cutterhead configurations: random, random paired, radial, and double spiral designs. Examples are provided to illustrate the results of applying these designs. The findings underscore the efficacy of the proposed methods in achieving a uniform and symmetrical distribution of cutters and buckets on the cutterhead surface. This approach effectively eliminates boundary overlap and minimizes unbalanced forces and moments. From a geomechanical standpoint, this framework offers a robust strategy for enhancing the performance and reliability of TBM cutterheads in rock tunneling operations.

숏크리트는 터널에서 사용되는 중요한 지보재이다. 숏크리트와 암반의 접착상태는 터널의 안정성 및 사용성에 큰 영향을 끼치는 중요한 평가 요소이다. NATM공법을 이용한 터널 굴착시 굴착면 빛 벤치부에서 발파에 의해 숏크리트가 부착력을 잃고 암반으로부터 탈락되거나 공동이 형성되는 경우 숏크리트 자체의 파괴뿐만 아니라 터널의 전체적인 안정에도 악영향을 미친다. 숏크리트의 접착상태는 완전 접착, 접착력 상실, 그리고 공동으로 분류할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 비파괴 시험인 충격반향기법(Impact-Echo)을 이용하여 숏크기트와 암반의 접착상태를 평가하고자 하였다. 범용 유한요소 해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 충격반향시험에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석으로부터 획득된 신호를 시간영역, 주파수 영역 및 시간-주파수 영역에서 각각 해석하여 숏크리트와 암반의 접착상태에 따른 신호특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 능동적 신호 처리 기법인 Short-Time Fourier Transform(STFT)을 이용하여 숏크리트 배면의 접착상태를 효과적으로 예측할 수 있었다. 숏크리트 배면의 접착상태가 불량할수록 시간영역 신호의 최대 진폭 이후 첫 진폭이 커지며, 주파수 영역에서 최대 에너지가 커진다. 또한 뚜렷한 공진 주파수가 나타나므로 숏크리트의 두께의 역산이 가능해진다. 시간-주파수 영역에서 윤곽선은 시간축에 평행한 형상을 나타낸다. 또한 완전 접착조건에서 지반 종류에 따른 신호특성도 분석하였다. 지반조건이 불량할수록 시간-주파수 영역에서 시간축과 평행한 윤곽선의 길이가 길어지며 그 주파수 대역은 10 kHz 이하의 저주파수 영역에서 나타난다.
