Comparison of Saturated and Unsaturated Water Flows through Pavement Systems
Comparison of Saturated and Unsaturated Water Flows through Pavement Systems
Yu-Jin Lim, Nguyen Tien Hue
Abstract
Most of the current drainage criteria have been developed on the basis of experimental field results and theoretical analyses of infiltration under saturated conditions. The objective of this study is to extend the understanding of pavement drainage systems by considering unsaturated condition in the sublayers. Analyses of unsaturated flows through pavements was performed by running finite element program(SEEP/W) with a range of pavement materials and drainage parameters. Meanwhile, the widely used DRIP program developed by FHWA is based on assumption of saturated condition of pavements. Differences between saturated and unsaturated condition in the sublayers of the pavements are verified. It is verified that for unsaturated conditions time to drain would take longer time compared to saturated condition.
Key Words: Pavement Drainage; Finite Element Analysis; Permeability; Unsaturated Flow; Soil Water Characteristic Curve; Infiltration
요지
현재까지의 일반적인 도로하부 배수설계방법은 구성층이 완전포화 되었다는 가정하에 현장실험결과 및 이론적인 해석해를 바탕으로 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 포장하부구성층의 불포화상태가 포장체의 배수에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 상용의 유한요소해석 프로그램인 SEEP/W를 이용하여 불포화상태에서의 포장하부구성층과 그 투수특성을 달리하여 포장하부층에서의 배수효과를 분석하였다. 반면 현재 포장하부배수해석을 위하여 가장 널리 사용되는 미 연방도로국 개발 DRIP 프로그램은 포장하부구 성층이 완전포화 되어있다고 가정한다. 불포화와 포화가정에 따른 배수효과의 차이를 비교, 분석하였으며 불포화가정의 경우 배수시간이 포화에 비하여 크게 오래 걸려 배수효과가 떨어짐이 확인되었다.
