Abstract

Various types of external loads can be applied to the tunnel structure. In a shield tunnel, the vibration from the train may affect the behavior of the adjacent ground. In this study, the railway-induced vibration was estimated and applied to the shield tunnel through 3D numerical simulation. The effective stress analysis based on the finite difference method and Finn model was performed to investigate the potential of liquefaction below the tunnel. Furthermore, pore water pressure and displacement were monitored on a time domain; consequently, the liquefaction potential and dynamic response of the shield tunnel were analyzed. Consequently, it is confirmed that the generation of excess pore water pressure by train-induced vibrating load, however, the amount does not meaningfully affect the potential of liquefaction.

다양한 종류와 크기의 하중이 터널에 재하되는데, 본 연구에서는 쉴드 터널 내부에 작용하는 열차 진동하중이 연약 사질지반에 미치는 영향을 3차원 수치모델에 의하여 수치해석적으로 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 사인함수와 열차제원을 이용하여 열차진동의 형상과 주파수를 산정하고 속도충격률 및 노반압력을 계산하여 열차진동하중을 획득하였다. 계산된 열차진동하중을 3차원 유한차분해석망에 재하하여 Finn model을 이용한 유효응력해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 시간에 따른 과잉간극수압이력을 산정하였고 과잉간극수압비를 이용하여 액상화 가능성을 판정하였다. 그 결과 열차진동하중에 의하여 과잉간극수압이 발생함을 확인하였으나, 발생 정도는 미미함을 확인하였다.
