Abstract

The shear behavior at the particle/surface interface such as rock joint can determine the mechanical behavior of whole structure. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms governing its behavior and accurately estimation of the interface strength is essential. In this paper, PFC, a numerical analysis program of discrete element method was used to investigate the effects of the surface roughness on interface strength. The surface roughness was characterized by smooth, intermediate, and rough surface, respectively. In order to investigate the effects of particle shape and crushing on particle/surface interface behavior, one ball, clump, and cluster models were created and their results were compared. The shape of particle was characterized by circle, triangle, square, and rectangle, respectively. The results showed that as the surface roughness increases, interface strength and friction angle increase and the void ratio increases. The one ball model with smooth surface shows lower interface strength and friction angle than the clump model with irregular surface. In addition, a cluster model has less interface strength and friction angle than the clump model. The failure envelope of the cluster model shows non-linear characteristic. From these findings, it is verified that the surface roughness and particle shape effect on the particle/surface interface shear behavior.

암반 절리면과 같이 입자와 연속체 평면의 접촉면에서의 전단거동은 전체 구조물의 거동을 지배할 수 있다. 암반 설계의 효율을 높이기 위해서는 입자와 연속체 평면의 접촉면 전단거동 메커니즘에 대한 기초적인 이해와 접촉면 전단강도를 정확하게 산정하는 것이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 연속체 평면의 표면 거칠기의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 개별요소법 수치해석 프로그램인 PFC2D를 사용하였다. 이 때 표면 거칠기는 매끄러운 평면, 중간 거칠기 평면, 거친 평면의 세 가지로 구분하였다. 접촉면 전단시험에서 입자 형상 및 입자 파쇄의 영향을 연구하기 위하여 one ball 모델과 clump 및 cluster 모델을 형성하여 상대적으로 비교ㆍ분석하였다. 이 때 입자의 형상은 원형, 삼각형, 직사각형, 정사각형으로 모델링하였다. 수치해석 결과, 표면 거칠기가 클수록 접촉면 전단강도 및 마찰각이 크게 나타났으며, 또한 간극률이 크게 증가하였다. 표면이 매끄러운 one ball 모델보다 작은 입자들의 결합으로 이루어져 표면이 굴곡진 모델, 즉 clump 모델의 접촉면 전단강도 및 마찰각이 크게 나타났다. 입자의 결합이 파괴되는 모델, 즉 cluster 모델의 접촉면 전단 강도 및 마찰각이 같은 형상의 clump 모델보다 작게 나타났으며, 파괴포락선은 비선형으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 연속체 평면의 거칠기 및 입자의 형상이 입자와 평면의 접촉면 전단거동 특성에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다.
