The behavior of a jointed rock mass depends mainly on the geometrical and mechanical properties of joints. The failure mode of a rock mass and kinematics of rock blocks are governed by the orientation, spacing, and persistence of joints. The mechanical properties such as dilation angle, shear strength, maximum closure, strength of asperities and friction coeffiient play important roles on the stability and deformation of the rock mass. The normal and shear behaviour of a joint are coupled due to dilation, and the joint deformation depends also on the boundary conditions such as stiffness conditons. In this paper, the joint constitutive law including the dilatant behaviour of a joint is numerically modelled using the edge-to-edge contact logic in distinct element method. Also, presented is the method to quantify the input parameters used in the joint law. The results from uniaxial compression and direct shear tests using the numeical model of the single joint were compared to the analytic results from them. The boundary effect on the behaviour of a joint is verified by comparing the results of direct shear test under constant stress boundary condition with those under constant stiffness boundary condition. The numerical model developed is applied to a complex jointed rock mass to examine its performance and to evaluate the effect of joint dilation on tunnel stability.

아치형 공동의 열원 경계에 대한 열전도 특성은 반무한평면이나 원형공동에 대한 열전도 특성과는 다른 양상을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 지하 냉동저장 pilot plant 의 운영을 통하여 계측된 저장공동 주위안반내 온도분포패턴의 분석을 통하여 아치형 공동의 열원 경계를 갖는 새로운 열전도식을 유도하였다. 계측된 암반온도 분포패턴은 선형적 변화와 로그함수적 변화의 중간적인 양상을 보였다. 열전파에 미치는 열물성 변수들의 영향도 분석 및 도출된 열전도식과 현장계측에 의한 암반온도 분포양상의 비교를 통하여 암반의 열물성을 추정하였다. 추정된 암반의 열전도도와 비열은 실내시험에 의한 무결 암석의 열물성과 비교해 20~25%의 차이를 보였다. 이는 암반내의 절리와 지하수의 영향에 기인한 것으로 판단되는데, 앞으로 현지암반에 대한 이들 영향요소의 조사와 열물성의 측정 및 비교분석을 통하여 정량적인 상관관계의 규명이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

전단하중을 받는 암반의 전단특성은 절리면의 구조적인 특징뿐만 아니라 암반 주변의 경계조건에 의해서도 영향을 받는다. 암반블록의 경계조건은 절리면이 받고 있는 응력상태를 기준으로 4가지로 구분할 수 있다. 일반적으로 주로 사용되는 CNL 조건의 전단시험에서 얻어지는 전단강도는 다른 경계조건에서 얻어지는 것보다 낮은 전단강도를 나타내며 그 거동도 다른 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 일정수직하중(CNL) 시험결과를 정규화한 그래픽 방법을 이용하여 일정수직강성(CNS) 조건의 전단거동을 모사할 수 있었다.

사면이나 터널과 같은 암반 구조물의 안정성에 영향을 미치는 절리면은 크게 절리면의 상태(돌기 강도, 충전재, 돌기 경사)와 주위 암반에 의해 구속되는 경계조건에 따라 지배된다. 본 연구에서는 암반 구조물에 작용하는 경계조건 과 절리상태에 따른 전단특성을 규명하기 위하여 PID 알고리즘에 의해 서보제어가 되는 절리면 전단시험 장비를 개발하였다. 그리고 돌기 경사가 일정한 톱니형 형상의 절리면에 대하여 일련의 실험을 수행하여 시험장비의 제어성능을 확인하고 사면이나 터널과 같이 경계조건이 다른 암반구조물에서는 전단강도 평가기법을 달리하여야 함을 알 수 있었다.

The characteristics of a rock joint which influence the stability of rock mass structures, such as the cut slopes and the tunnels, are largely controlled by the conditions of the rock joint as well as its boundary conditions. Boundary conditions can be represented by assuming that the deformability(or stiffness) of the rock mass surrounding the joints is modelled by a spring with stiffness. A new direct shear apparatus is developed in this study, which adapts a servo control system using PID algorithm. This apparatus can be used to investigate the various aspects of shear characteristics of the rock joints at conditions of constant normal stress and constant normal stiffness and so on. It is possible that the behavior under the constant normal stiffness condition can be predicted by the normalized graphic method with results obtained from the tests in the constant normal stress condition.

It is common that the soil layer is a few meters below the earth's surface and the rock mass is below the soil layer in the view of geological characteristics in Korea. And the boundary between rock and soil is clearly divided. When dealing with the stability of rock masses, as in the case of rock slopes or dam foundations, the majority of the collapses is not within the soil layer, but within the soil-rock boundary. Therefore it is important to identify the shear strength characteristics between soil-rock boundary. And then in the method of reinforcement on landslide this chose a cut slope near Daemo elementary school in Seoul, surveyed shear strength between soil-rock contacts and considered a large scale collapse using a limit equilibrium method.

터널 설계 시 조사를 통하여 지반을 여러 개의 등급으로 분류한 후 지보패턴표에 따라 해당 지보시스템을 적용하게 된다. 그러나 암반 등급을 기준으로 한 단순한 패턴 적용방식은 암반 등급 경계부에서 발생하는 종방향 응력 전이를 고려하지 못한다. 본 연구는 NATM 터널의 종방향 암반 등급 변화부에서 응력 변화를 추정하기 위한 3차원 수치해석을 실시하였으며 Influence Line (영향선) 및 Trend Line (경향선)을 이용하여 하중전이 영향권을 파악하고자 하였다. 연구 결과 터널 굴착방향으로 암반 등급이 하향 변화하면 등급변화 경계를 중심으로 강성이 약한 암반에서 강성이 큰 암반 방향으로 0.35~0.7D 범위에서 응력 전이가 발생하며 이를 고려하여 암반 등급의 종방향 하향 변화부에서는 연구결과의 0.35~0.7D 영향권을 감안하여 안전측으로 1.0D 정도의 하향패턴을 추가 적용하는 것이 필요하다.

The selection of the support system is an important design parameter in design and construction of the tunnel using the new Australian tunnel method. It is a common practice to select the support based on the rock mass grade, in which the rock mass is classified into five rock groups. The method is applicable if the characteristics of the rock mass are uniform in the vertical direction. However, such case is seldom encountered in practice and not applicable when the properties vary along the vertical direction. This study performs comprehensive three dimensional finite difference analyses to investigate the ground deformation pattern for cases in which the rock mass properties change in the vertical direction of the tunnel axis. The numerically calculated displacements at the tunnel crown show that the displacement is highly dependent on the stiffness contrast of the rock masses. The results strongly indicate the need to select the support type $0.5{\sim}1.0D$(vertical direction) on the rock mass boundary. The paper proposes a new guideline for selecting the support type based the results of the analyses.

The jointed rock mass behavior often plays a major role in the design of underground excavation, and their failures during excavation and in operation, are usually closely related to joints. This research attempts to evaluate the effects of two basic geometric factors influencing tunnel behavior in a jointed rock mass; joints spacing and joints orientation. A hybridized indirect boundary element code known as TFSDDM (Two-dimensional Fictitious Stress Displacement Discontinuity Method) is used to study the stress distribution around the tunnels excavated in jointed rock masses. This numerical analysis revealed that both the dip angle and spacing of joints have important influences on stress distribution on tunnel walls. For example the tensile and compressive tangential stresses at the boundary of the circular tunnel increase by reduction in the joint spacing, and by increase the dip joint angle the tensile stress in the tunnel roof decreases.

The effects of geologic structures such as rock joins and bedding planes on the thermal conductivity of a discontinuous rock mass are studied. The expressions for the equivalent thermal conductivities of jointed rock masses are derived and found to be anisotropic. The degree of anisotropy depends primarily on the thermal properties contrast between the joint phase and surrounding intact rock, the joint density expressed as volume fraction and the inclination angle of the joint. Within the context of 2-dimensional finite element heat transfer scheme, the isotherms around a circular hole are analyzed for both the isotropic and anisotropic rock masses in 3 different thermal boundary conditions. i.e. temperature, heat flux and convection boundary conditions. The temperature in the stratified anisotripic rock mass is greatly influenced by the thermal properties of the rock formation in contact with the heat source. Using the excavation-temperature coupled elastic plastic finite element method, analyzed is the thermo-mechanical stability of a circular opening subjected to 10$0^{\circ}C$ at a depth of 527m. It is found that the thermal stress concentration was enough to deteriorate the stability and form a plastic yield zone around the opening, in contrast to the safety factor greater than 2 resulted form the excavation-only analysis.
