This paper proposes an integrated safety assessment method that can take multiple sources data into consideration based on a data fusion approach. Data cleaning using the Kalman filter method (KF) was conducted first for monitoring data from each sensor. The inclination data from the four tilt sensors of the same monitoring section have been associated to synchronize in time. Secondly, the finite element method (FEM) model was established to physically correlate the external forces with various structural responses of the shield tunnel, including the measured inclination. Response surface method (RSM) was adopted to express the relationship between external forces and the structural responses. Then, the external forces were updated based on the in situ monitoring data from tilt sensors using the extended Kalman filter method (EKF). Finally, mechanics parameters of the tunnel lining were estimated based on the updated data to make an integrated safety assessment. An application example of the proposed method was presented for an urban tunnel during a nearby deep excavation with multiple source monitoring plans. The change of tunnel convergence, bolt stress and segment internal forces can also be calculated based on the real time deformation monitoring of the shield tunnel. The proposed method was verified by predicting the data using the other three sensors in the same section. The correlation among different monitoring data has been discussed before the conclusion was drawn.

Tunnel construction activity, conducted mainly in mountains and within urban centres, causes soil settlement, thus requiring the relevant management of slopes and structures as well as evaluations of risk and stability. Accordingly, in this study we performed a three-dimensional finite element analysis to examine the behaviour of piles and pile cap stability when a tunnel passes near the bottom of the foundation of a pile group connected by a pile cap. We examined the results via numerical analysis considering different conditions for reinforcement of the ground between the tunnel and the pile foundation. The numerical analysis assessed the angular distortion of the pile cap, pile settlement, axial force, shear stress, relative displacement, and volume loss due to tunnel excavation, and pile cap stability was evaluated based on Son and Cording's evaluation criterion for damage to adjacent structures. The pile located closest to the tunnel under the condition of no ground reinforcement exhibited pile head settlement approximately 70% greater than that of the pile located farthest from the tunnel under the condition of greatest ground reinforcement. Additionally, pile head settlement was greatest when the largest volume loss occurred, being approximately 18% greater than pile head settlement under the condition having the smallest volume loss. This paper closely examines the main factors influencing the behaviour of a pile group connected by a pile cap for three ground reinforcement conditions and presents an evaluation of pile cap stability.

최근 국내 도심지 도로는 빈번한 교통정체가 발생하고 있다. 도심지 교통정체를 해소하기 위한 방안으로 국내에서는 대심도 복층터널에 대한 계획이 이루어지고 있다. 국내에서 계획되는 대심도 복층터널은 소형차 전용으로 계획되며 네트워크형의 구조를 가지고 있어 차량의 출입이 지하공간에서 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 네트워크형 대심도 복층터널은 터널의 단면 및 높이가 일반도로터널 보다 작고 차량의 출입으로 인한 교통풍의 작용으로 화재연기가 터널 승객의 대피보다 빠르게 전파되어 인명피해 발생이 예상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 네트워크형 대심도 복층터널에 화재시 화재연기 확산지연을 방지하고자 화재연기 확산지연 장치 작동시 터널 차단면적에 터널 내 작용하는 유입풍의 저감효과를 분석하였으며, 분석결과 터널 차단면적이 50% 이상일 경우 터널 내 작용하는 풍속을 약 21% 저감시키는 효과가 나타났으며, 면적이 50% 이상일 경우 화재 연기의 확산속도를 약 21% 저감시켜 안전한 대피에 도움이 될 것이라 판단된다.

In this study, the effects of trees on flow and scalar dispersion in an urban street canyon were investigated using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. For this, we implemented the drag terms of trees to the CFD model, and compared the CFD-simulated results to the wind-tunnel results. For comparison, we considered the same building configuration as the wind-tunnel experiment. The trees were located at the center of street canyon with the aspect ratio (defined as the ratio of the street width to the building height) of 1. First, the flow characteristics were analyzed in the tree-free and high-density tree cases and the results showed that the CFD model reproduced well the flow pattern of the wind-tunnel experiment and reflected the drag effect of trees in the street canyon. Then, the dispersion characteristics of scalar pollutants were investigated for the tree-free, low-density tree and medium-density tree cases. In the tree-free case, the nondimensionalized concentration distribution simulated by the CFD model was quite similar to that in the wind-tunnel experiment in magnitude and pattern. The correlation coefficients between the measured and simulated concentrations are more than 0.9 in all the cases. As the tree density increased, nondimensionalized concentration increased (decreased) near the wall of the upwind (downwind) building, which resulted from the decrease in wind speed case by the drag effect of trees. However, the CFD model underestimated (overestimated) the concentration near the wall of upwind (downwind) building.

Various difficulties have been increased in the construction of public structure; like the road in the overcrowding urban area, because of civil complaint, cost and period of construction. In oder to overcome these social problems, the tunnel has been planned the road design. Despite the resolution, there are many technical problems when constructed near facilities. The design of new tunnel below the existing service reservoir is applied to the ambient vibration blasting using Plasma. The result of test blasting was exceeded the standard ("2kine"). So it was considered a countermeasure for the vibration reduction applied to change the controlled blasting method, reduce the charge, add the pre middle horizontal hole in the cut blasting site, and so on. The result was satisfied the standard. Accordingly, if the quality of blasting process can be managed well, the application of this alternative method is highly effective one. Also, based on cost analysis between two methods, the alternative method is very competitive.

Recently, various building integrated wind power (BIWP) approaches have been used to produce energy by installing wind power generators in high-rise buildings constructed in urban areas. BIWP has advantages in that it does not require support to position the turbine up to the installation height, and the energy produced by the wind turbine can be applied directly to the building. The accurate evaluation of wind speed is important in urban wind power generation. In this study, a wind tunnel test and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis were conducted to evaluate the wind speed for installing wind turbines between buildings. The analysis results showed that the longer the length of the buildings, which had the same height, the larger the wind speed between the two buildings. Furthermore, the narrower the building's width, the higher the wind velocity; these outcomes are due to the increase in the Venturi effect. In addition, the correlation coefficient between the results of the wind tunnel test and the CFD analysis was higher than 0.8, which is a very high value.

도로터널은 입구와 출구를 제외한 모든 면이 막혀있는 반밀폐공간으로 화재가 발생할 경우 화재 연기는 화재로 인한 열부력과 터널 내 상시 존재하는 기류에 의해 종방향으로 확산하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 도로터널에는 연기의 이동방향을 제어하거나 화재지점에서 직접 배연함으로써 안전한 대피환경을 확보하고 신속한 구조 및 소화 활동을 위해 제연 설비를 설치하고 있다. 도심지에서는 인구 증가에 따른 교통량 증가로 인해 도심지 도로의 서비스 수준이 저하되어 극심한 정체현상이 빗어지고 있으며, 이에 대한 해결방안으로 도심지에 지하도로의 건설이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 수소연료전지차(FCEV)의 TPRD를 통한 수소 누출 시 화재가 발생하는 경우, 화재강도는 누출량에 의존하며, 최대 화재강도는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경 1.8 mm를 고려하여 최대 화재강도가 15 MW일 때, 소형차전용터널 내 차도 풍속과 대배기구의 개방 간격에 따른 화재연기의 확산거리에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 터널 내 차도 풍속이 1.25 m/s 이하인 경우 터널 내 기류제어가 가능하였으며, 댐퍼 간격이 50 m, 100 m 인 경우 화재로부터 200 m 범위 이내에서 제연이 가능한 것으로 분석됐다.

A substantial portion of the cost of a tunnelling project in urban environments is, therefore, devoted to prevent ground movement. Therefore, prediction of ground movements and assessment of risk of damage to adjacent buildings has become an essential part of the planning, design, and construction of a tunnelling project in the urban environments. An internet-based tunnelling-induced ground movements and building damage assessment system (IT-TURIMS) was developed and implemented to Daegu Metro Subway Line tunnel construction project in Korea. This paper describes the concept and implementation of IT-TURIMS. Practical significance of tunnelling risk assessment is also discussed.
