The spectral analysis of surface waves (SASW) method, which is an in-situ seismic technique, has mainly been developed and used for many years to determine the stiffness profile of layered media (such as asphalt concrete and layered soils) in an infinite half-space. This paper presents a modified experimental technique for nondestructive evaluation of in-place cement mortar compressive strength in single-layer concrete slabs of rather a finite thickness through a correlation to surface wave velocity. This correlation can be used in the quality control of early age cement mortar structures and in evaluating the integrity of structural members where the infinite half space condition is not met. In the proposed SASW field test, the surface of the structural members is subjected to an impact, using a 12 mm steel ball, to generate surface wave energy at various frequencies. Two accelerometer receivers detect the energy transmitted through the medium. By digitizing the analog receiver outputs, and recording the signals for spectral analysis, surface wave velocities can be identified. Modifications to the SASW method includes the reduction of boundary reflections as adopted on the surface waves before the point where the reflected compression waves reach the receivers. In this study, the correlation between the surface wave velocity and the compressive strength of cement mortar is developed using one 36"x36"x4"(91.44$\times$91.44$\times$91.44 cm) cement mortar slab of 2,000 psi (140 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) and two 36"x36"x4"(91.44$\times$91.44$\times$91.44 cm) cement mortar slabs of 3,000 psi (210 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$).

The SASW method is a promising and effective way of profiling ground stiffness nondestructively. This method has been successfully applied to many geotechnical sites, but significant lateral variability, embedded obstacles, and pavement lead to the low reliability. To improve these problems, the horizontal wave component has been introduced to improve the reliability of the stiffness profile determined by the SASW method. To understand dispersion character of the horizontal component wave propagation in artificial profiles, FEM analysis had been performed. Used models are homogeneous half-space and two layered half- spaced layers.

Propagation of the generalized Rayleigh waves in an initially stressed elastic half-space covered by an elastic layer is investigated. It is assumed that the initial stresses are caused by the uniformly distributed normal compressional forces acting on the face surface of the covering layer. Two different cases where the compressional forces are "dead" and "follower" forces are considered. Three-dimensional linearized theory of elastic waves in initially stressed bodies in plane-strain state is employed and the elasticity relations of the materials of the constituents are described through the Murnaghan potential where the influence of the third order elastic constants is taken into consideration. The dispersion equation is derived and an algorithm is developed for numerical solution to this equation. Numerical results for the dispersion of the generalized Rayleigh waves on the influence of the initial stresses and on the influence of the character of the external compressional forces are presented and discussed. These investigations provide some theoretical foundations for study of the near-surface waves propagating in layered mechanical systems with a liquid upper layer, study of the structure of the soil of the bottom of the oceans or of the seas and study of the behavior of seismic surface waves propagating under the bottom of the oceans.

지반에서 겨울에 발생할 수 있는 단단한 상부층은 방진벽의 진동차단성능을 변화시킬 수 있다. 본 논문은 상부에 단단한 층이 존재하는 층진 지반(layered soil)에서 표면파의 진동전파와 강성 방진벽의 진동차단 성능에 관한 것이다. 연구는 이차원문제로, 경계요소법을 이용한 수치해석적 방법에 의해 수행되었으며, 진동원은 수직방향으로 조화가 진을 받는 줄기초이다. 검토된 지반은 세 가지로, 균질의 반무한 지반과, 단단한 상부층의 두께를 달리하는 두 개의 지반이다. 단단한 상부층을 갖는 지반에서는 굴절의 지반과 비교하여 아주 커다란 진폭의 감소가 나타났으며, 진동전파 속도의 경우, 물성치에 의해 계산으로 구해지는 진동전파 속도만큼의 크기가 나타나지 않았다. 더욱이 동결지반에서의 진폭은 비동결지반에서 보다 거리에 따라 아주 작은 값이 구해졌다.

이 논문에서는 포화된 2상 지반의 동적해석에서 원역을 모형화하기 위한 새로운 무한요소를 제안하였다. 무한요소법은 무한영역 또는 반무한영역을 모형화해야 하는 공학문제에 효과적으로 적용되어 왔다. 그러나 현재까지 개발된 2상지반의 동적해석을 위한 무한요소는 형상함수에 사용될 수 있는 파동성문이 2개(Pl파와 P2파)로 한정되어 있다. 이 논문에서는 이와 같은 제한을 없애고 임의 개수의 파동성분을 고려할 수 있도록 하는 정식화 과정을 제안하였다. 구조물을 포함하는 근역은 유한요소로 나타내며 원역은 평행층상 반무한 지반으로 가정하였다. 제안된 무한요소의 타당성은 1차원 및 2차원 파동전달문제를 해석하고 이를 이론해 및 정밀수지해석 해와 비교하여 검증하였다.

A new analytical derivation of the elastodynamic point load solutions for an isotropic multi-layered half-space is presented by means of the precise integration method (PIM) and the approach of dual vector. The time-harmonic external load is prescribed either on the external boundary or in the interior of the solid medium. Starting with the axisymmetric governing motion equations in a cylindrical coordinate system, a second order ordinary differential matrix equation can be gained by making use of the Hankel integral transform. Employing the technique of dual vector, the second order ordinary differential matrix equation can be simplified into a first-order one. The approach of PIM is implemented to obtain the solutions of the ordinary differential matrix equation in the Hankel integral transform domain. The PIM is a highly accurate algorithm to solve sets of first-order ordinary differential equations and any desired accuracy of the dynamic point load solutions can be achieved. The numerical simulation is based on algebraic matrix operation. As a result, the computational effort is reduced to a great extent and the computation is unconditionally stable. Selected numerical trials are given to validate the accuracy and applicability of the proposed approach. More examples are discussed to portray the dependence of the load-displacement response on the isotropic parameters of the multi-layered media, the depth of external load and the frequency of excitation.

This study considers a functionally graded (FG) elastic layer resting on homogeneous elastic substrate under axisymmetric static loading. The shear modulus of the FG layer is assumed to vary in an exponential form through the thickness. In solution, the FG layer is approximated into a multilayered medium consisting of thin homogeneous sublayers. Stiffness matrices for a typical homogeneous isotropic elastic layer and a half-space are first obtained by solving the axisymmetric elasticity equations with the aid of Hankel's transform. Global stiffness matrix is, then, assembled by considering the continuity conditions at the interfaces. Numerical results for the displacements and the stresses are obtained and compared with those of the classical elasticity and the finite element solutions. According to the results of the study, the approach employed here is accurate and efficient for elasto-static problems of FGMs.

In this study, the coupled effects of magnetic field, stress and thermal field on gravity waves propagating in a liquid layer over a solid surface are discussed. Due to change in temperature, initial hydrostatic stress and magnetic field, the gravity-sound Rayleigh waves can propagate in the liquid-solid interface. Dispersion properties of waves are derived by using classical dynamical theory of thermoelasticity. The phase velocity of gravity waves influenced quite remarkably in the presence of initial stress parameter, magneto-thermoelastic coupling parameter in the half space. Numerical solutions are also discussed for gravity-Rayleigh waves. In the absence of temperature, stress and magnetic field, the obtained results are in agreement with classical results.

인접 점성 유체의 점도가 탄성파의 전파특성에 미치는 효과를 이론적 및 실험적으로 연구하였다. 원형막대에서 전파하는 비틂파와 박막 덮인 반무한 고체에서 전파하는 Love파와 같이 전단운동을 하는 탄성파에 대해서 전파속도와 감쇠의 표현을 유체의 점도와 밀도의 함수로써 엄밀해와 근사해로 구하였다. 이론적 결과는 실험 결과와 비교하였으며, 실험에 사용된 장치는 유체의 밀도를 알 때 점도를 측정하는 센서로 활용될 가능성을 보였다.
