  • Excavation of underground cavern and shaft was proposed for the construction of a ventilation facility in an urban area. A shaft connects the street-level air plenum to an underground cavern, which extends down approximately 46 m below the street surface. At the project site, the rock mass was relatively strong and well-defined joint sets were present. A kinematic block stability analysis was first performed to estimate the required reinforcement system. Then a 3-D discontinuum numerical analysis was conducted to evaluate the capacity of the initial support and the overall stability of the required excavation, followed by a 3-D continuum numerical analysis to complement the calculated result. This paper illustrates the application of detailed numerical analyses to the design of the required initial support system for the stability of underground hard rock mining at a relatively shallow depth.

  • The distinct element method(DEM) si well suited to the kinematic analysis of blocky rock masses. Two distinctive problems, a rock avalache and tunnel in jointed rock masses, are chosen to apply the DEM which is based on perfectly rigid behaviour of blocks. Investigated for both problems are the effects of the input parameters such as contact stiffnesses, friction coefficient and damping property. Using various types of models of the avalanche and tunne, an extensive parametric study is done to gain experiences in the method, and then to alleviate difficulties in determining parameter values suitable for a given problem. The coefficient of frictio has significant effects on all aspects of avalanche motion(travel distance, velocity and travel time), while the stiffnesses affect the rebounding and jumping motions after collision. The motion predicted by the models having single and mutiple blocks agrees well to the observations reported on the actual avalache. For the tunnel problem, the behaviour of the key block in an example tunnel is compared by testing values of the input parameters. The stability of the tunnel is dependent primarily on the friction coefficient, while the stiffness and damping properties influence the block velocity. The kinematic stability of a tunnel for underground unclear waste repository is analyzed using the joint geometry data(orientation, spacing and persistence) occurred in a tailrace tunnel. Allowing a small deviation to the mean orientation results in different modes of failure of the rock blocks around the tunnel. Of all parameters tested, the most important to the stability of the tunnel in blocky rock masses are the geometry of the blocks generated by mapping the joint and tunnel surfaces in 3-dimensions and also the friction coefficient of the joints particularly for the stability of the side walls.

  • 본 연구는 도로 절취사면에 대한 사면안정 연구로서 삼량진과 밀양을 연결하는 1022호 지방도 중 천태산 부근에 위치한 약 4km의 연속적인 절취사면에서 수행되었다. 연구지역은 유문암질 회류응회암, 강하응회암, 유문암 및 안산암 등의 백악기 화산암류로 구성되어 있으며, 거의 전 구간에 걸쳐 $70^{\circ}$이상의 사면각으로 형성된 절취암반은 높은 빈도의 불연속면을 포함하고 있다. 암반사면의 불안정 요인으로 작용하는 불연속면의 기하학적 분포특성을 파악하기 위하여 8개 지점에서 선형조사선 조사를 실시하였으며, 조사 자료에 대하여 운동학적 해석 및 블록이론해석을 적용하여 대상 도로절취사면의 안정성을 검토하였다. 각각의 선형조사선에서 조사된 개별 불연속면에 대한 중력 재하의 평면 파괴, 쐐기 파괴, 및 전도 파괴 등에 대한 최대안전사면각을 산정한 결과, 평면파괴에 대한 최대안전사면각은 대부분의 개별 불연속면에서 $65^{\circ}$이상으로 나타났으며, 쐐기파괴에 대한 최대안전사면각은 $45^{\circ}$이상으로 산정되었다. 또한, 전도파괴에 대해서는 대부분의 개별 불연속면에서 $80^{\circ}$이상으로 산정되었다. 블록이론을 적용한 결과 SL4, SL5, SL6 및 SL8 지점에 존재하는 잠재적 키블록(Type II)을 확인하였다. 블록이론에 의해 구분된 잠재적 키블록에 대하여 한계평형해석을 수행한 결과 중력재하에서는 1보다 큰 안전율이 확보되었으나 집중호우 시 나타날 수 있는 간극수압과 같은 외적 사면 불안정 요인에 따라 안전율이 크게 저하될 수 있음을 도출하였다. 또한, 한계평형해석 시 적용되는 Mohr-Coulomb 및 Barton 등의 전단강도 기준식에 따른 안전율의 변화를 제시하였다.

  • This paper is implemented a control algorithm in order to be stable and minimized to entire train traffic system at delayed case. Signal ing system is described wi th algebraic equations given for train headway, Discrete-event simulation principles are reviewed and a demonstration block signaling model using the technique is implemented. Train congestion at station entrance for short headway operation is demonstrated and the propagation of delays along a platform of trains from any imposed delay to the leading train is also shown. A rail way signaling system is by nature a distributed operation with event triggered at discrete intervals. Although the train kinematic variables of position, velocity, and acceleration are continually changing, the changes are triggered when the trains pass over section boundaries and arrive at signals and route switches. This paper deals with linear-mode1ing, stability and optimal control for the traffic on such metro line of the model is reconstructed in order to adapt the circuits. This paper propose optimal control laws wi th state feedback ensuring the stability of the modeled system for circuits. Simulation results show the benefit to be expected from an efficient traffic control. The main results are summarized as follows: 1. In this paper we develop a linear model describing the traffic for both loop lines, two state space equations have been analyzed. The first one is adapted to the situation where a complete nominal time schedule is available while second one is adapted when only the nominal time interval between trains is known, in both cases we show the unstability of the traffic when the proceeding train is delayed following properties, - They are easily implemented at law cost on existing lines. - They ensure the exponetial stability of loop system. 2. These control laws have been tested on a traffic simulation software taking into the non-linearites and the physical constraints on a metro line. By means of simulation, the efficiency of the proposed optimal control laws are shown.
