Abstract

In this research, numerical simulations by PFC considering discrete element method are conducted to predict experimental results of large triaxial compression test with rockfill material for dam construction. For generation of compacted assembly with specific grain size distribution and initial material porosity, the clump logic method and expansion of generated particles are adapted. To predict stress-stain behavior of large triaxial test, discrete particle modelling is applied with micro parameters which are chosen by calibration process. It is expected that distinct particle modelling method could be used as a useful tool to investigate micro and macro behavior associated with geotechnical problems and develop a numerical laboratory.

본 연구에서는 개별요소해석 프로그램 PFC를 이용하여 실내 대형삼축압축시험에 대한 거동예측 및 실내시험 결과와의 분석을 수행하였다. 댐 축조용 락필재료(rockfill material)에 대한 실내 대형삼축압축시험을 수행하였으며, PFC 해석에 있어서는 초기 간극률을 고려한 개별요소 생성과 팽창, clump logic을 이용한 대상재료의 입도분포 모델링을 수행하였다. 특정 구속압 조건에 대한 실내시험 결과를 이용하여 개별요소해석시 필요한 미시 물성치(micro Parameter)를 산정하였으며, 이를 이용하여 다양한 응력조건에 대한 개별요소해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구결과, 개별요소법은 지반공학적 측면에서, 조립재료에 대한 미시적 거동(micro behavior) 및 전체적 거동(macro behavior)의 예측뿐 아니라, 수치시험실(numerical laboratory)로서 활용될 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
