액상화 현상이란 지반이 포화된 느슨한 사질토 지반에 지진과 같은 동적하중이 급속히 작용할 때 과잉간극수압이 발생하고, 지반이 유효응력을 상실하고 액체화 되는 현상을 말한다. 액상화 평가를 위한 실내반복시험은 반복삼축압축시험과 반복전단시험을 통하여 확인이 가능하다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 반복삼축압축시험을 이용한 모래의 상대밀도와 입도분포에 따른 액상화 저항 강도를 확인하고자 하였고, 실험장비의 신뢰도 검증과 결과의 타당성을 확인하고자 기존의 선행연구와 대조하여 비교·분석하였다. 실험결과, 흙의 분류에 상관없이 상대밀도가 증가함에 따라 액상화 저항 강도가 높아짐을 확인하였고, 모래의 입도분포에 따른 액상화 저항강도는 SW에 가까운 SP시료의 액상화 저항강도가 상당히 높게 확인되었다. 또한 세립분 0% 대비 세립분 30%를 분석한 결과, 상대밀도 40~70%까지 증가함에 따라 액상화 저항강도가 5~20% 가까이 감소하였고, 국내 풍화토 지반이 주문진 표준사 대비 액상화 저항 강도가 세립분이 10%일 때는 30% 이상, 세립분이 30%일 때는 50% 이상 낮게 측정되었다.

Conventional hyperbolic model does not satisfactorily predict the overall stress-strain behaviors of various geomaterials. Tatsuoka and Shibuya(1992) suggest the generalized hyperbolic equation(GHE) considering strain dependency and calculated performance is in good agreement with precise triaxial compression test results of stress-strain relations over wide range of strains before peak stress condition in some cases, but GHE model also does not satisfactorily predict stress-strain relations as strain goes on state of peak stress in most cases. For improve a weak point of the GHE, in this study, modified form of generalized hyperbolic equation (MGHE model) is proposed which can predict highly nonlinear stress-strain behavior for various geomaterials from small strain to peak stress condition.

In order to utilize mass of oyster shells for a partial substitute material for reclamation, we investigate the shear characteristics of dredged sluge mixed with oyster shells. the apparent modulus of elasticity of the this mixture are obtained from the triaxial compression tests and is utilized to characterize the apparent modulus of elastic of the oyster shells by carrying out some numerical analysis based upon the homogenization theory. We got the conclusion by a series of experiment, 1) It is verified that modulus of elasticity of dredged clay is improved by mixing with oyster shells. 2) The homogenization method for deducing apparent modulus of elasticity of oyster shells, which can consider micro-structure of mixed soil, is introduced. The elastic modulus is affected from the skeleton structure of oyster shell. The effect of 49kPa is bigger than that of 98kPa.

In ballasted railway tracks, ballast fouling due to finer material intrusion has been identified as a challenging issue in track maintenance works. In this research, deformation characteristics of crushed stone-sand mixtures, simulating fresh and fouled ballasts were studied from laboratory and a 3-D discrete element method (DEM) triaxial compression tests. The DEM simulation was performed using a recently developed DEM approach, named, Yet Another Dynamic Engine (YADE). First, void ratio characteristics of crushed stone-sand mixtures were studied. Then, triaxial compression tests were conducted on specimens with 80 and 50% of relative densities simulating dense and loose states respectively. Initial DEM simulations were conducted using sphere particles. As stress-strain behaviour of crushed stone-sand mixtures evaluated by sphere particles were different from laboratory specimens, in next DEM simulations, the particles were modeled by a clump particle. The clump shape was selected using shape indexes of the actual particles evaluated by an image analysis. It was observed that the packing behaviour of laboratory crushed stone-sand mixtures were matched well with the DEM simulation with clump particles. The results also showed that the strength properties of crushed stone deteriorate when they are mixed by 30% or more of sand, specially under dense state. The results also showed that clump particles give closer stress-strain behaviour to laboratory specimens than sphere particles.

It has been recognized unsaturated soil behaviour playing an important role in geomechanics. Up to now, only a few experimental data are available for the technical difficulties related to both volume changes and suction measurements. In this study, the volume changes of unsaturated compacted silty soil were monitored with proximeter (i.e. non-contactable transducer) during various triaxial compression tests, which gave a realistic estimation in the volume changes of unsaturated soil sample. The measurement of volume changes were performed with 0.5% of the maximum error under the axial strain ratio of less than 10%. The experimental results have revealed that the mechanical behaviour of unsaturated soil can be significantly affected by the matric suction. During the shearing processes, the level of maximum deviator stress under the initial suction pressure of 50kPa was higher than that under the initial suction pressure of 10kPa. On the other hand, the volume changes became smaller under the increase in the initial suction pressure.

In this study, shear strength behavior of fine-grained soils was investigated under unsaturated conditions. The samples in the unsaturated state were subjected to a net normal stress (σ-u_a) of 40 kPa and different matric suctions (u_a-u_w) of 50, 100 and 150 kPa. The matric suction values applied in the triaxial tests were selected according to the bubbling pressures determined from the SWC curves. The study was carried out on prepared re-constituted cylindrical samples by uniaxial consolidation of soil slurries. First, consolidated drained (CD) triaxial compression tests were performed on the saturated samples and the cohesion and angle of internal friction were determined. After that, drained triaxial compression tests under matric suctions were performed on the unsaturated samples. In order to obtain unsaturated test results, cohesion and internal friction angle values of saturated samples were used. The nonlinear surface representing the shear strength surface was approximated consisting of two planes (double planar surface). The reason for the nonlinear behavior of some soils is that the amount of sand content contained in it is relatively high and the bubbling pressure/permanent water content value is relatively low.

본 논문에서는 수치적 구성방정식인 연속 탄소성 캡 모델의 정수추정에 관한 방법이 제시되었다. 캡 모델을 이용하여 실제 토질의 거동을 예측하기 위하여서는 캡 모델을 이루는 토질의 물성과 직접적으로 연관된 여덟개의 정수가 결정되어야 한다. 이를 위하여 첫 번째로, Ottawa 모래를 사용하여 표준압밀시험기를 이용한 일축압축시험 및 배수삼축압측 시험이 토질거동의 실제기준값으로서 수행되었고, 두 번째로 탄소성 캡 수치해석모델의 반응을 실내실험값에 일치시키기 위하여 추정된 정수들을 사용한 수치실험이 수행되었다. 두 실험 간의 오차를 최소화하기 위하여 최적화 기법이 사용되었으며, 최적화 후 결정된 8개의 정수는 실내실험결과와 비교되었다. 특히, 수치적 삼축압축시험시 응력계산에 따른 수평변위 측정에 특별한 주의가 필요하다.

불포화토의 전단특성 평가는 제방구조물의 안정성과 투수특성 평가에 매우 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 낙동강 유역에서 제방 제체재료로 사용되는 모래, 점토에 대한 불포화 전단특성을 평가하기 위해 불포화 삼축시험을 수행하였다. 모관흡수력에 따른 불포화강도변화를 살펴보기 위해 다단계실험방법을 적용하였으며, 그 결과를 바탕으로 비선형성을 고려한 겉보기 점착력($C_{max}$)에 맞추어 비교 분석하였다. 또한 실험결과를 바탕으로 선형적인 강도를 나타내는 Mohr-Columb 파괴강도를 활용할 수 있는 평균적인 ${\varphi}^b$ 값을 산출하였다.

It is important to estimate the shear strength of shallow compacted soils as a construction material. A series of constant water content triaxial compression (CWCC) tests under low confining state in this study were performed on compacted geomaterials. For establishing a relationship of the shear strengths between saturated and unsaturated states on compacted geomaterials, the suction stresses were derived by two methods: the conventional suction-measured method and the Suction stress-SWRC Method (SSM). Considering the suction stress as an equivalent confining stress component in the (${\sigma}_{net}$, ${\tau}$) plane, it was found that the peak deviator stress states agree well with the failure line of the saturated state from the triaxial compression test when the SSM is applied to obtain the suction stress. On the other hand, the cavitation phenomenon on the measurement of suction affected the results of the conventional suction-measured method. These results mean that the SSM is distinctly favorable for obtaining the suction value in the CWCC test because the SSM is not restricted by the cavitation phenomenon. It is expected that the application of the SSM would reduce the time required, and the projected cost with the additional equipment such as a pore water measuring device in the CWCC test.
