  • 수치해석기법을 이용한 말뚝의 거동특성 예측방법은 정재하시험비가 고가이기 때문에 공사 전 말뚝의 거동을 예측할 수 있다는 장점으로 설계단계에서 널리 이용되고 있지만 그 신뢰성에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실제 현장에서 말뚝의 거동과 수치해석으로 예측한 말뚝의 거동을 비교함으로써 수치해석 기법의 신뢰성을 검증하였다. 지반과 말뚝의 상호작용에 의한 말뚝의 거동을 정확하게 파악하기 위하여 정재하시험이 수행되는 지반에서 시추조사, 현장원위치시험 등을 통해 지반특성을 확인하였고, 실규모 정재하시험을 수행하여 말뚝의 거동특성을 분석하였다. 정재하시험이 수행된 방식과 동일하게 수치해석을 모사하여 재하시험과 동일한 하중단계에서 말뚝의 거동을 수치해석으로 모사하여 현장시험 결과와 비교함으로써 수치해석 기법의 신뢰성을 검증하였다.

  • Shallow tunnels are vulnerable to earthquakes, and shallow ground is usually inhomogeneous. Based on the limit equilibrium method and variational principle, a solution for the seismic collapse mechanism of shallow tunnel in inhomogeneous ground is presented. And the finite difference method is employed to compare with the analytical solution. It shows that the analytical results are conservative when the horizontal and vertical stresses equal the static earth pressure and zero at vault section, respectively. The safety factor of shallow tunnel changes greatly during an earthquake. Hence, the cyclic loading characteristics should be considered to evaluate tunnel stability. And the curve sliding surface agrees with the numerical simulation and previous studies. To save time and ensure accuracy, the curve sliding surface with 2 undetermined constants is a good choice to analyze shallow tunnel stability. Parameter analysis demonstrates that the horizontal semiaxis, acceleration, ground cohesion and homogeneity affect tunnel stability greatly, and the horizontal semiaxis, vertical semiaxis, tunnel depth and ground homogeneity have obvious influence on tunnel sliding surface. It concludes that the most applicable approaches to enhance tunnel stability are reducing the horizontal semiaxis, strengthening cohesion and setting the tunnel into good ground.

  • When a sea-dike is constructed on soft soils, it is much difficult to calculate ground deformation caused by forced displacements. In this study , a series of laboratory model tests have been performed to investigate the ground deformation under a constructed sea-dike on soft soils. Construction sequence of sea-dike embankment was assumed such as constructed by quarry first and followed by soils adjacent to quarry embankment. as test data and displacement in subsoils have been analyzed, it seems that deformation is caused by general shear failure. the shape of ground deformation caused by forced displacements was well defined be parabola . Upon comparing profiles and depth of forced displacement from the model test to those based on stress-baring capacity method commonly used, it has been found that deformation prediction using stress-bearing capacity method was not exact at the edge of loading.

  • Top-Base Method is a stabilization method for light weight structures particularly in the soft ground. It is widely used for the increment of bearing capacity and the effect of restraining settlement when the bearing capacity of the ground is not enough. Top-shaped cone concrete foundations are installed in graveled laid over soft ground. The principle of the basic method is to maximize effect of dispersing the overburden pressure by increasing the contact area of the top-shaped cone. Therefore, the bearing capacity is increased and the settlement is decreased by the embedded resistance of pile part in the ground. In this paper, the plate bearing test was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of Top-Base foundation. Based on the test results, the coefficient of subgrade reaction, elastic modulus, and settlement of foundation on reclaimed land was derived.

  • This paper looks into the field inside the wide rectangular box structure that is excited by the High Power Electromagnetic(HPEM) source as a potential threat to electric grid and communication networks causing malfunction or destruction. The rectangular box is assumed power/ground planes and its internal field is calculated by the cavity model with the lightning strike excitation as an HPEM pulse. The accuracy of the calculation method employed here is validated through a $156mm{\times}106mm{\times}508{\mu}m$ parallel metallic plate case which is manufactured and tested, and is applied to the size of a building. With the help of the cavity model that takes into account loading, the level of the electric field is shown to decrease when a metal pillar is loaded between the power and ground planes.

  • 현장계측 자료를 이용하여 연약지반의 향후 침하거동을 예측하는 기존의 방법들은 모두 즉시재하 조건을 가정하고 개발된 방법으로써 실제로는 연약지반의 안정성 등을 고려하여 점증재하가 이루어지는 현장에 적용하기에는 많은 제약이 있다. 본 연구에서는 연약층의 두께, 성토하중 크기, 선행압밀하중, 배수거리, 성토속도 등의 다양한 영향인자를 고려하였으며 점증재하가 완료된 이후의 지반개량 기간에도 지속적으로 예측 정확도를 높일 수 있는 계측기반 침하거동 예측기법을 개발하였다. 점증재하 과정에서의 예측방법과 성토완료 이후의 예측방법이 개발되었으며, 성토 완료 이후의 예측방법은 기하학적 보정을 이용한 정확도 향상기법과 확률론적 보정을 이용한 정확도 향상기법 두 가지를 제안하였다. 대형압밀시험 결과를 이용한 예측기법의 적용성 검증 결과, 기존의 예측기법을 적용할 수 없는 점증재하 초기에도 비교적 적은 데이터를 이용하여 상당히 높은 정확도를 가지고 침하거동을 예측할 수 있었다. 또한, 성토완료이후에도 기존 예측기법과 제안된 방법의 비교, 분석 결과 최종침하량과 RMSE에서 모두 제안된 방법이 기존의 예측기법에 비하여 우수한 예측결과를 보였다.

  • 본 연구는 CPR 공법을 적용한 압축재하시험을 통하여 지반의 항복하중과 허용지지력을 평가하여 기초 지반 보강효과를 확인하기 위한 것이다. 주입재의 평균압축강도는 계획된 강도보다 높게 나타났다. 또한 각 지층에서 표준관입시험 결과는 시험 전보다 시험 후의 평균 N값이 향상되었다. 즉, 이것은 지반의 지지력을 증대시키는 효과를 가져왔음을 의미한다. 두 종류의 CPR 말뚝 압축재하시험 결과에 의하면, 최대 재하하중에 의한 전침하량과 순침하량은 CPR 말뚝직경 허용범위를 초과하는 침하량을 나타냈다. 침하량 기준과 하중-침하량 곡선에 의해 산정한 항복하중 및 허용지지력은 적용되는 방법에 따라 값의 편차가 크게 나타났다. 따라서 허용지지력은 다양한 항복하중 산정법을 적용한 후 종합적인 분석을 통하여 최적의 값을 결정할 필요성이 있다고 사료된다.

  • Framed masonry wall structures represent a typical high-rise structural system that are also seismically vulnerable. During ground motions, they are excited in both in-plane and out-of-plane terms. The interaction between the frame and the infill during ground motion is a highly investigated phenomenon in the field of seismic engineering. This paper presents a numerical investigation of two distinct static out-of-plane loading methods for framed masonry wall models. The first and most common method is uniformly loaded infill. The load is generally induced by the airbag. The other method is similar to in-plane push-over method, involves loading of the frame directly, not the infill. Consequently, different openings with the same areas and various placements were examined. The numerical model is based on calibrated in-plane bare frame models and on calibrated wall models subjected to OoP bending. Both methods produced widely divergent results in terms of load bearing capabilities, failure modes, damage states etc. Summarily, uniform load on the panel causes more damage to the infill than to the frame; openings do influence structures behavior; three hinged arching action is developed; and greater resistance and deformations are obtained in comparison to the frame loading method. Loading the frame causes the infill to bear significantly greater damage than the infill; infill and openings only influence the behavior after reaching the peak load; infill does not influence initial stiffness; models with opening fail at same inter-storey drift ratio as the bare frame model.

  • This article investigates the response of Integral Abutment Bridges (IAB) when subjected to a sequence of seasonal thermal loading of the deck followed by ground seismic shaking in the longitudinal direction. Particular emphasis is placed on the effect of pre-seismic thermal Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) on the seismic performance of the IAB, as well as on the ability of various backfills configurations, to minimize the unfavorable SSI effects. A series of two-dimensional numerical analyses were performed for this purpose, on a complete backfill-integral bridge-foundation soil system, subjected to seasonal cyclic thermal loading of the deck, followed by ground seismic shaking, employing ABAQUS. Various backfill configurations were investigated, including conventional dense cohesionless backfills, mechanically stabilized backfills and backfills isolated by means of compressive inclusions. The responses of the investigated configurations, in terms of backfill deformations and earth pressures, and bridge resultants and displacements, were compared with each other, as well as with relevant predictions from analyses, where the pre-seismic thermal SSI effects were neglected. The effects of pre-seismic thermal SSI on the seismic response of the coupled IAB-soil system were more evident in cases of conventional backfills, while they were almost negligible in case of IAB with mechanically stabilized backfills and isolated abutments. Along these lines, reasonable assumptions should be made in the seismic analysis of IAB with conventional sand backfills, to account for pre-seismic thermal SSI effects. On the contrary, the analysis of the SSI effects, caused by thermal and seismic loading, can be disaggregated in cases of IAB with isolated backfills.
