To estimate the behavior of reinforced and unreinforced embankment constructed on a impermeable foundation ground, a laboratory model test was performed for two types of soils and water level increasing velocity of a flood period. The experiment models were constructed with slopes of water level is 1.25cm/min, 2.5cm/min each. From model test results, as the slope of reinforced and unreinforced embankment was the slower, the more seepage line rised. In the unreinforced embankment, the rising velocity of water level was the faster, the larger the embankment failure was. And the reinforced embankment with geotextile was the more safe than the unreinforced embankment for seepage force.

본 연구에서는 부지 내 절토부에서 발생하는 암버력을 층당 7m씩 총 9층으로 단계별 동다짐 성토하여 조성된 최대 63m 고성토(高盛土) 암버력 지반의 거동특성을 파악하기 위해, 각 층 성토 완료 시 지중침하계를 설치하여 성토 중 침하량을 분석하였다. 또한, 암버력을 성토 단계별로 동다짐할 경우 하부 성토지반의 구속압 증가로 인하여 지반의 변형특성이 초기 상태와 차이가 발생할 것으로 예상됨에 따라 시공이력을 반영한 수치해석을 실시하여 지중침하계로부터 계측한 성토 단계별 침하량과 비교하였다. 한편, 최종 성토완료 후 선행재하 시 계측한 침하량을 분석하여, 본 연구대상 현장의 2차 크리프 침하량을 예측하였다.

Geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls can be employed as railway embankments to carry large static and dynamic train loads, but very few studies can be found in the literature that investigate their dynamic behavior under simulated wheel loading. A large-scale dynamic test on a reinforced soil railway embankment was therefore carried out. The model embankment was 1.65 meter high and designed to have a soilbag facing. It was reinforced with HDPE geogrid layers at a vertical spacing of 0.3 m and a length of 2 m. The dynamic test consisted of 1.2 million cycles of harmonic dynamic loading with three different load levels and four different exciting frequencies. Before the dynamic loading test, a static test was also carried out to understand the general behavior of the embankment behavior. The study indicated the importance of loading frequency on the dynamic response of reinforced soil railway embankment. It also showed that toe resistance played a significant role in the dynamic behavior of the embankment. Some limitations of the test were also discussed.

A high embankment is generally constructed by dividing into several sub-embankments. Unlike any soil embankment, a rock embankment is constructed by means of dynamic compaction. Such a sub-embankment and dynamic compaction may induce an increase of pressure at the lower part of embankment and cause a different behavior of ground from initial status. In this study, settlement of a high rock embankment is estimated using a hyperbolic model taking into construction history. The results from prediction are compared with those obtained from field measurements and large plate loading tests.

This study was performed to develop the embankment protection method that can reduce demage by prevention of embankment loss and collapse from overflow due to heavy rain and flood. For overflow test, model dam was prepared and embankment behaviors were monitored with the established piezometer and strain meter during overflow. As a result of overflow test for model dam, in case of embankment without waterproof mat, the lower end of embankment was collapsed within 40 seconds after beginning of overflow. On the other hand, in case of embankment with waterproof mat, embankment collapse didn't occurred during overflow. Accordingly, establishment of waterproof mat for embankment showed that be absolutely effective for the embankment protection during overflow in reservoir. Also, it showed that the minimum establishment range of waterproof mat to prevent embankment collapse in reservoir is from maximum storage level to the lower end of embankment.

In this study, the seismic response analysis of embankment dams was investigated through numerical modeling. The seismic behavior of dams under main earthquake records and wavelet-based records were studied. Earthquake records were decomposed using de-noising method (DNM) and down-sampling method (DSM) up to five levels. In decomposition process, low and high frequencies of the main earthquake record were separated into two signals. Acceleration response, spectral acceleration, and Fourier amplitude spectrum at the crest of embankment dams under different decomposition levels were evaluated. The seismic behavior under main and decomposed earthquake records was compared. The results indicate an acceptable agreement between the seismic responses of embankment dams under wavelet-based decomposed records and main earthquake motions. Dynamic analyses show that the DNM-based decomposed earthquake records have a better performance compared to DSM-based records. DNM-based records up to level 4 and DSM-based records up to level 2 have a high accuracy in assessment of seismic behavior of embankment dams. The periods corresponding to the maximum values of acceleration spectra and the frequencies corresponding to the maximum values of Fourier amplitude spectra of embankment dam crest under main and decomposed records are in good agreement. The results demonstrate that the main earthquake records can be replaced by wavelet-based decomposed records in seismic analysis of embankment dams.

This study were performed to investigated the behavior of excessive pore water pressure with embankment of soft clay. The dissipation behavior of excessive pore water pressure in the improved and non-improved area was used to compare and alyze with lateral displacement , and to investigated the applicability of the methods for stability evaluatio of soft clay. The behavior of excess pore water pressure could be used to the fundamental data for stability evaluation, and the evaluation of the stability of embankment was recommended to use the indlination of curve rather than critical line.

In this study, the large scale test was performed to investigate the behavior of failure for the embankment and spillway transitional zone by overtopping. The pore water pressure, earth pressure, settlement and failure pattern of covering embankment with geotextile were compared and analyzed. The pore water pressure showed a small change in the spillway transition zone and core, indicating that the geotextile efficiently reinforced the embankment. The earth pressure decreased the infiltration of the pore water only in inclined cores type to secure local stability. The behavior of failure started from the bottom and gradually progressed upwards. After the intermediate overtopping period (100 min), width and depth of the seepage erosion were very small due to the effect of geotextile which delayed failure. Therefore, the reinforced method by geotxtile was a very effective method to respond to the emergency due to overtopping.

본 연구에서는 보강제체와 무보강제체의 침투거동을 평가하기 위하여 실내모형실험을 실시하였다. 제체침투시험은 사면경사가 1:1.5, 1:2.0이고 수위상승속도가 1.25cm/min, 2.5cm/min, 수위는 15cm, 25cm, 35cm인 조건에서 실시하였다. 모형실험결과 보강재를 사용한 제체의 경우 지하수의 흐름과 상승 때문에 어느 정도의 침하와 수평방향변위가 발생하였으나, 무보강제체에서 나타난 커다란 활동파괴는 발생되지 않았다. 그리고 수위상승속도 변화에 따른 제체의 침투거동분석결과 Geotextile로 보강된 제체가 무보강제체보다 최종침하량이 감소하는 것으로 나타나 Geotextile을 설치한 제체가 비교적 물의 침투력에 대해 안정한 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 증축하천제방의 침투거동과 안정성을 평가하기 위하여, 증축부의 투수계수와 홍수시 강우로 인한 수위상승속도를 3가지 경우로 변화시켜 가면서 평행흐름조건에서 침투모형실험과 유한요소해석을 통한 침윤선 변화와 홍수직후의 수위급상승시 제체사면의 안정성을 분석하여 제체침식에 대한 사면의 불안정성을 검토하였다. 침투모형실험은 평행흐름조건에서 서로 다른 증축재료의 투수계수 $k_1$, $k_2$, $k_3$와 홍수시 발생 가능한 수위상승속도 $v_1$, $v_2$, $v_3$를 각각 변화시키며 수행되었다. 증축체제의 침투거동은 증축부의 투수계수가 클수록 초기 침투거리가 길고, 제체하류사면에 유출점이 점차로 상승하며 시간에 따른 안전율이 감소하면서 국부적인 붕괴로 이어지는 불안정한 침투거동을 보여준다. 또한, 제체사면의 붕괴양상은 수위상승속도가 증가할수록 붕괴발생높이와 붕괴깊이가 증가함을 보여준다.
