Abstract

In this paper, the effect of shear rate on internal friction angle and unconfined compressive strength of non-cemented and cemented sand was investigated. A dry Jumunjin sand was prepared at loose, medium, and dense conditions with a relative density of 40, 60 and 80%. Then, series of direct shear tests were conducted at shear rates of 0.32, 0.64, and 2.54 mm/min. In addition, a cemented sand with cement ratio of 8% and 12% was compacted into a cylindrical specimen with 50 mm in diameter and 100 mm in height. Unconfined compression tests on the cemented sand were performed with various shear rates such as 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5 and 10%/min. Regardless of a degree of cementation, the unconfined compressive strength of the cemented sand and the angle of internal friction of the non-cemented sand tended to increase as the shear rate increased. For the non-cemented sand, the angle of internal friction increased by 4° at maximum as the shear rate increased. The unconfined compressive strength of the cemented sand also increased as the shear rate increased. However, its increasing pattern declined after the standard shear rate (1 mm/min). A discrete element method was also used to analyze the crack initiation and its development for the cemented sand with shear rate. Numerical results of unconfined compressive strength and failure pattern were similar to the experimental results.

본 논문에서는 실내시험 시 재하속도가 미고결 모래의 내부 마찰각 그리고 고결모래의 일축압축강도에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다. 건조상태의 주문진모래를 상대밀도 40%로 느슨하거나, 60%로 중간 정도 및 80%로 조밀한 상태로 제작한 다음 0.32, 0.64, 2.54mm/min의 재하속도로 직접전단시험을 실시하였다. 또한, 주문진모래에 시멘트 8% 및 12%로 다짐한 직경 50mm, 높이 100mm의 고결 공시체를 일축압축시험 시 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, 10%/min의 재하속도로 압축하였다. 모래의 고결 여부나 정도에 관계없이 재하속도가 증가할수록 내부 마찰각과 일축압축강도는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 미고결 모래의 경우 재하속도가 증가할수록 최대 4° 까지 내부 마찰각이 증가하였다. 고결 모래의 경우도 일반적으로 재하속도에 따라 일축압축강도가 증가하였으나, 표준 재하속도인 1%/min를 기준으로 증가하는 경향이 감소하였다. 또한, 개별요소법을 이용하여 고결 모래의 재하속도에 따른 균열 발생 및 발달 과정을 분석하였으며, 해석결과 또한 재하속도가 증가함에 따라 강도가 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 강도가 증가할수록 균열이 뚜렷하게 발달하였다.
