Abstract

This research developed a flood fragility curve of bridges considering the debris impacts. Damage and failures of civil infrastructure due to natural disasters can cause casualties as well as social and economic losses. Fragility analysis is an effective tool to help better understand the vulnerability of a structure to possible extreme events, such as earthquakes and floods. In particular, flood-induced failures of bridges are relatively common in Korea, because of the mountainous regions and summer concentrated rainfall. The main failure reasons during floods are reported to be debris impact and scour; however, research regarding debris impacts is considered challenging due to various uncertainties that affect the failure probability. This study introduces a fragility analysis methodology for evaluating the structural vulnerability due to debris impacts during floods. The proposed method describes how the essential components in fragility analysis are considered, including limit-state function, intensity measure of the debris impact, and finite element model. A numerical example of the proposed fragility analysis is presented using a bridge pier system under a debris impact.

본 연구에서는 홍수 시 부유물의 충돌하중을 고려하여 교량의 홍수 취약도 곡선을 도출하였다. 자연재해에 의해 불가피하게 발생하는 사회기반시설물의 손상 또는 기능 손실은 심각한 인명피해 뿐만 아니라 국가적으로 사회적, 경제적 손실을 불러올 수 있다. 따라서 국가주요시설물을 재난으로부터 효과적으로 유지관리하기 위해 취약도 곡선은 중요한 도구로 사용되고 있다. 특히 한국은 산지 지형이 많이 형성되어 있고 하절기에 강수량의 2/3이상이 집중되어, 홍수 피해 가능성이 매우 높다. 홍수 시 교량 파괴의 주원인으로는 부유물의 충돌과 하상세굴이 있는데, 부유물의 충돌은 여러 가지 불확실성으로 인하여 상대적으로 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 FERUM-ABAQUS 기반의 취약도 해석 시스템을 도입하여, 홍수시 부유물의 충돌에 대한 교량의 취약성을 평가하였다. 교량의 취약도 해석을 효과적으로 수행하기 위하여 한계상태함수, 손상도 지수, 확률변수, 유한요소모델, 취약도 해석 소프트웨어 시스템을 주로 고려하였으며, 가속도 및 변위 응답해석을 통하여 모델 상태를 확인하였다. 다음으로는 홍수 시 부유물 충돌에 발생 가능한 다양한 파라미터를 기반으로 교량의 취약도 곡선을 성공적으로 도출하였다.
