A novel theoretical solution is presented for created (zero initial radius) cavity expansion problem based on CamClay model and considers the effect of initial anisotropic in-situ stress and drained conditions. Here the strain of this theoretical solution is small deformation in elastic region and large deformation in plastic region. The works for cylindrical and spherical cavities expanding in drained condition from zero initial radius are investigated. Most of the conventional solutions were based on the isotropic and undrained condition, however, the initial stress state of natural soil mass is anisotropy by soil deposition history, and drained cavity expansion calculation is closer to actual engineering in permeable soil mass. Finally, the parametric study is presented in order to the engineering significance of this work.

This study presents an elasto-plastic (EP) solution for drained cavity expansion on the basis of unified strength failure criterion and considers the influence of initial stress state. Because of the influence of initial consolidation of soil mass, the initial stress may be anisotropic in the natural soil mass. In addition, the undrained hypothesis is usually used in the calculation of cavity expansion problem, but most of the cases are in the drained situation in practical engineering. Eventually, the published solution and the presented solution are compared to verify the suitability of the study.

Cavity expansion is a classical problem in the field of solid mechanics with a wide range of applications in geotechnical and petroleum engineering. A drained solution is developed for cylindrical cavity expansion in anisotropic soils under biaxial in-situ stresses using a K0-based anisotropic modified Cam-clay model (K0-AMCC). The problem is formulated by solving differential equations using an auxiliary variable, which provides analytical expressions for the volume and four stress components of the soil around the cylindrical cavity. The solution is validated by comparisons with existing well-developed solutions. The results show that the present solution well captures the cavity expansion responses in anisotropic soils under biaxial in-situ stresses, and removes limiting assumptions that the cylindrical cavity expands under uniform in-situ stress in isotropic soils. The elastic-plastic boundary of the expanding cylindrical cavity in K0-consolidated anisotropic soils under biaxial in-situ stresses is a circle rather than an ellipse in isotropic soils, and the mathematical proof is provided in detail.

The creep and consolidation behaviors of clays subjected to thermal cycles are of fundamental importance in the application of energy geostructures. This study aims to numerically investigate the physical mechanisms for the temperature-triggered volume change of saturated clays. A recently developed thermodynamic framework is used to derive the thermo-mechanical constitutive model for clays. Based on the model, a fully coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) finite element (FE) code is developed. Comparison with experimental observations shows that the proposed FE code can well reproduce the irreversible thermal contraction of normally consolidated and lightly overconsolidated clays, as well as the thermal expansion of heavily overconsolidated clays under drained heating. Simulations reveal that excess pore pressure may accumulate in clay samples under triaxial drained conditions due to low permeability and high heating rate, resulting in thermally induced primary consolidation. Results show that four major mechanisms contribute to the thermal volume change of clays: (i) the principle of thermal expansion, (ii) the decrease of effective stress due to the accumulation of excess pore pressure, (iii) the thermal creep, and (iv) the thermally induced primary consolidation. The former two mechanisms mainly contribute to the thermal expansion of heavily overconsolidated clays, whereas the latter two contribute to the noticeable thermal contraction of normally consolidated and lightly overconsolidated clays. Consideration of the four physical mechanisms is important for the settlement prediction of energy geostructures, especially in soft soils.

최근 시민편의를 위한 도심지 사회기반시설의 확충으로 인하여 민원최소화와 시공안정성을 고려한 쉴드터널 시공이 증가하고 있다. 대부분의 쉴드터널은 지하수가 유입되지 않는 비배수조건으로 가정하여 설계되지만 현장에서는 배수시설을 설치하여 지하수를 배출하는 배수터널처럼 운영되므로 설계 시 배수조건이 고려될 필요가 있다. 또한 우리나라 전역에 넓게 분포하고 가장 많이 이용되는 화강풍화토 지반에 대한 고려도 필요하다. 본 논문은 배수 및 응력조건을 조절할 수 있고 지하수면 아래 화강풍화토 지반에 위치한 터널을 모사할 수 있는 실험장비를 이용하여 실험하였으며, 전응력, 간극수압 및 배수내관의 유입유량을 측정하였다. 실험결과 배수조건 시 간극수압 감소로 인하여 전응력이 비배수조건보다 작게 나타났고, 유입유량은 재하응력에 비례하였다. 결과적으로 쉴드터널 설계 시 배수조건이 고려된다면 라이닝 작용 응력이 감소되기 때문에 경제성 높은 설계가 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

본 연구에서는 도로노면 하부 지반에서 발생한 공동의 확장특성을 평가하기 위하여, 지하수주입 실험을 수행하였다. 즉, 공동체적에 비례한 일정량의 물을 단계별로 주입하고, 주입한 물이 배출됨에 따라 확대되는 공동을 모니터링 함으로써, 공동의 체적변화를 확인하였다. 실험결과, 지하수 주입에 따른 공동의 체적은 증가하다 수렴 또는 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이는 지하수 주입 시, 공동이 확장되는 과정에서 주변의 이완된 지반이 일부 붕괴되거나 세립토가 주변 지반의 간극을 채우기 때문인 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 지하수 주입 단계에 따른 공동의 체적변화와 확장특성을 분석한 결과, 실험대상 공동은 횡방향으로 확장되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 지하수 유동에 따라 이완된 공동 주변지반이 붕괴되고, 붕괴된 토사가 공동하부의 지중으로 유실되는 과정이 반복됨으로써 공동이 확장되는 것으로 평가되었다.

Several isotropic compression-expansion tests and a series of drained conventional traxial tests with various confining pressures for relative density of Beakma river sand 25%, 50%, 80% and 100% selecting Lade's Single Work-Hardening constitutive model. This examination materials use regression analysis as a basis, depending on the relative density of soil parameters change statement attributes. Yield fuction represent the soil parameters h and $\alpha$ is not affected by the changes in the relative density. $\eta_1$ could be replaced by fomula. And Numerical analysis results predicted very good and could confirm that.

The aims of this study are to evaluate the application on the stress-strain behavior of granite Soil using Lade's double work hardening constitutive model based on the theories of elasticity and plasticity. From two different sites of construction work, two disturbed and compacted weathered granite samples which are different in partical size and degree of weathering respectively were obtained. The specimen employed were sampled at Iksan and Pochon in order to predict the constitutive model. Using the computer program based on the regression analysis, 11 soil parameters for the model were determined from the simple tests such as an isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests. In conclusion, it is shown that Lade's double work hardening model gives the good applicability for processing of stress-strain, work-hardening, work-softening and soil dilatancy. Therefore, this model in its present form is applicable to the compacted decomposed granite soil.

To get accurate results, the realistic stress-strain relationships of soils are dependent on a number of factors such as soil types, density, stress levels and stress path. Such attempts are continuously being made by the developement of analytical models for soils incorporating all such factors. Isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests with several stress path for Baekma river sand were performed to investigate parameters characteristics of Lade's single work hardening model dependant on the stress path. Using the computer program based on the regression analysis, the values of parameters for the model were determined. In conclusion, the parameters of Lade's model are little influenced by the stress paths. Though yield criterion parameters ( h, ${\alpha}$a) are much influenced by stress level and stress path, the parameters don't have influence on stress-strain behavior.

본 연구는 석탄회의 상대밀도를 40%, 60%, 80%, 95%로 각각 변화시켜 등방압축팽창시험과 구속압력을 달리한 배수삼축시험을 하였다. 그리고 이 시험자료를 이용하여 Lade의 단일항복면 구성모델의 토질매개변수의 변화 특성을 알아보았다. 그 결과 탄성성분을 나타내는 토질매개변수 Kur과 n은 상대밀도의 변화에 따른 영향이 미소하고 파괴규준, 경화함수, 소성포텐셜에 관련된 토질매개변수는 상대밀도의 증가에 따라 선형적인 증 감현상을 보이고 있다. 그리고 항복함수에 관련된 토질매개변수 h와 ${\alpha}$는 상대밀도에 따른 변화가 미세하고 파괴규준에 관련한 토질매개변수와 관련성이 매우 높아 파괴규준, ${\eta}_1$에 관한 식으로 대체할 수 있으며, 이 식을 이용하여 수치해석한 결과 양호하게 예측하고 있다.
