  • 한국에서 시행중인 특별법에 의한 지하안전영향 평가 수행 시, 필수적으로 지하공동의 발생 유무를 조사하여야 한다. 지하공동 발견 시에는 수치해석을 통해서 지하안전성을 평가하도록 규정하였다. 선행 연구를 통해서 소규모 지하공동의 2차원 형상변화를 통한 안전율 기반의 안정성 평가 가능성을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 형상을 고려하여 소규모 지하공동의 영향을 연속체 해석 프로그램을 사용해서 검토하였고, 선행 연구에서 제시한 2차원 해석결과와 비교하였다. 지하공동의 3차원 형상이 구(sphere)형에 가깝게 발견되면, 공동의 크기, 위치 등에 관계없이 전단강도감소기법으로 안전율을 산정하여 평가하는 방법에 무리가 없을 것으로 판단된다. 지표면으로부터의 깊이 2 m 이상, 장축과 단축의 비(a/b)가 2.0 이상인 장대형 지하공동이 연직방향으로 서있는 형상이라면, 전단강도감소기법을 사용한 안정성 평가에 안전율 이외에 파괴양상 파악에도 주의가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 결과는 지하안전영향평가에 관한 기초 자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • The soil-structure relative stiffness is a key factor affecting the seismic response of underground structures. It is of great significance to study the soil-structure relative stiffness for the soil-structure interaction and the seismic disaster reduction of subway stations. In this paper, the dynamic shear modulus ratio and damping ratio of an inhomogeneous soft soil site under different buried depths which were obtained by a one-dimensional equivalent linearization site response analysis were used as the input parameters in a 2D finite element model. A visco-elasto-plastic constitutive model based on the Mohr-Coulomb shear failure criterion combined with stiffness degradation was used to describe the plastic behavior of soil. The damage plasticity model was used to simulate the plastic behavior of concrete. The horizontal and vertical relative stiffness ratios of soil and structure were defined to study the influence of relative stiffness on the seismic response of subway stations in inhomogeneous soft soil. It is found that the compression damage to the middle columns of a subway station with a higher relative stiffness ratio is more serious while the tensile damage is slighter under the same earthquake motion. The relative stiffness has a significant influence on ground surface deformation, ground acceleration, and station structure deformation. However, the effect of the relative stiffness on the deformation of the bottom slab of the subway station is small. The research results can provide a reference for seismic fortification of subway stations in the soft soil area.

  • 터널식 전력구는 지중으로 전력을 공급하기 위한 구조물 중 하나이며, 도심지 및 해저구간을 통과하는 구간에 쉴드TBM 공법을 활용하여 안정적으로 건설을 추진한다. 전력구 건설의 경우에는 수직구 심도가 깊어 주로 암반지반을 굴착하며, 암반대상 밀폐형 쉴드TBM 선정에 대한 고찰이 필요하였다. 또한, 지반조사 보고서 결과를 바탕으로 범용적이고, 간단한 설계방법이 필요하였다. 이에 실대형 굴진시험, 누적 굴진데이터, 수치해석을 종합하여 쉴드TBM 설계방법과 관련 프로그램을 개발하였다. 프로그램 결과에 대해 검증을 수행하고자 준공된 전력구 1개 현장의 굴진데이터를 활용하였다. 굴진데이터의 모집단을 추정하기 위해 커널밀도추정 방법을 도입하여 추력, 토크, 동력의 기본사양에 대해 검증을 완료하였다. 본 연구결과를 통해 쉴드TBM 설계업무 전문성 강화 및 안정적 전력공급의 사용자 편익증대를 기대할 수 있다.

  • This paper presents the numerical parametric analysis on the loading capacity of Channel purlins with screw-fastened sheeting, in which the effects of anti-sag bar and corrugated steel sheet on the ultimate capacity are studied. Results show that the setup of anti-sag bars can reduce the deformations and improve the ultimate capacity of C purlins. The traditional method of setting the anti-sag bars in the middle of the web is favorable. The changing of sheeting type, sheeting thickness and rib spacing has significant effects on the ultimate capacity of C purlins without anti-sag bars, compared with those with anti-sag bars. The proposed design formulas are relatively consistent with the calculations of EN 1993-1-3:2006, which is different from those of GB 50018-2002.

  • 본 연구에서는 지반굴착 시 굴착구간 주변의 지하시설물이 지하수 흐름특성에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 지하시설물의 규모와 이격거리, 지하수 동수구배 등을 고려하여 시나리오 기반으로 굴착 단계별 지하시설물의 영향을 지하수 수위 변화와 지하수 유출량 측면에서 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 지하시설물의 규모가 증가할수록 수두차와 수두구배가 크게 발생하며 이격거리가 짧을수록 큰 수두차와 수두구배를 보인다. 모델영역의 지하수 수두구배에 따른 영향은 비교적 작은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 시나리오에 대한 지하수 유출량 분석 결과 지하시설물의 규모가 증가하거나 이격거리가 짧을수록 지하수 유출량이 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 이는 지반굴착에 따른 지하수 유동특성 분석에 있어 주변에 존재하는 지하시설물에 대한 영향 검토가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

  • Many hydropower stations in southwest China are located in regions of brittle rock mass with high geo-stresses. Under these conditions deep fractured zones often occur in the sidewalls of the underground caverns of a power station. The theory and methods of fracture and damage mechanics are therefore adopted to study the phenomena. First a flexibility matrix is developed to describe initial geometric imperfections of a jointed rock mass. This model takes into account the area and orientation of the fractured surfaces of multiple joint sets, as well as spacing and density of joints. Using the assumption of the equivalent strain principle, a damage constitutive model is established based on the brittle fracture criterion. In addition the theory of fracture mechanics is applied to analyze the occurrence of secondary cracks during a cavern excavation. The failure criterion, for rock bridge coalescence and the damage evolution equation, has been derived and a new sub-program integrated into the FLAC-3D software. The model has then been applied to the stability analysis of an underground cavern group of a hydropower station in Sichuan province, China. The results of this method are compared with those obtained by using a conventional elasto-plastic model and splitting depth calculated by the splitting failure criterion proposed in a previous study. The results are also compared with the depth of the relaxation and fracture zone in the surrounding rock measured by field monitoring. The distribution of the splitting zone obtained both by the proposed model and by the field monitoring measurements are consistent to the validity of the theory developed herein.

  • An underground research facility (KURF) is under construction at KAERI for the in situ studies related to the validation of a HLW disposal system. For the safe construction and long-term researches at KURF, mechanical stability of the facility should be evaluated. In this study, 3D mechanical stability analysis using the rock mass properties determined from various in situ as well as laboratory tests was carried out. From the analysis, it was possible to predict the rock deformation, stress concentration, and plastic zone developed before and after the excavation. A test blasting was performed to characterize the site dependent dynamic response, which can be used for the prediction of the blasting impact on the facilities in KAERI.

  • There is increasing interest in using structural monitoring as a cost effective way of managing risks once an area of concern has been identified. However, it is challenging to deploy an effective, reliable, large-scale, long-term and real-time monitoring system in an underground railway environment (subway / metro). The use of wireless sensor technology allows for rapid deployment of a monitoring scheme and thus has significant potential benefits as the time available for access is often severely limited. This paper identifies the critical factors that should be considered in the design of a wireless sensor network, including the availability of electrical power and communications networks. Various issues facing underground deployment of wireless sensor networks will also be discussed, in particular for two field case studies involving networks deployed for structural monitoring in the Prague Metro and the London Underground. The paper describes the network design, the radio propagation, the network topology as well as the practical issues involved in deploying a wireless sensor network in these two tunnels.

  • Trichloroethylene, which is one of the representative DNAPL, has been found in underground water sources as a result of the manufactural use, and disposal of the chemical. In this research, in situ air sparging method was chosen to reduce the TCE concentration from the source zone. The concentration reduction in the source zone resulting from air sparging is simulated using the modified STOMP Water-Air operational mode in a two dimensional axisymmetric domain and bench scale test is conducted to analyze the performance of air sparging. The results of laboratory tests are compared with numerical simulations.
