The accurate peak response estimation of a seismically excited structure with frictional damping system(FDS) is very difficult since the structure with FDS shows nonlinear behavior dependent on the structural period, loading characteristics, and relative magnitude between the frictional force and the excitation load. Previous studies have estimated that by replacing a nonlinear system with an equivalent linear one or by employing the response spectrum obtained based on nonlinear time history and statistical analysis. In the case that an earthquake load is defined with probabilistic characteristics, the corresponding response of the structure with FDS has probabilistic distribution. In this study, nonlinear time history analyses were performed for the structure with FDS subjected to artificial earthquake loads generated using Kanai-Tajimi filter. An equation for the probability density function (PDF) of the displacement response is proposed by adapting the PDF of the normal distribution. Finally, coefficients of the proposed PDF are obtained by regression analysis of the statistical distribution of the time history responses. Finally the correlation between PDFs and statistical response distribution is presented.

발파진동이 건설 환경공해의 한 요인으로서 심각한 사회문제로 대두되자, 이 부분에 대하여 여러 가지 연구활동이 각 관련기관 및 단체에서 이루어져 왔다. 기존의 대부분이 안전 한계치를 제시하는 과정에서 통계처리를 이용한 회귀분석 등이 이용되었으나, 최근에 즈음하여 진동파형 및 주파수 분석 등을 통한 진동 특성을 연구하거나, 발파 진동에 의한 구조물의 응답특성에 관한 연구 등이 병행하여 수행되고 있다. 지진하중에 대한 내진설계 분야에서 구조 동역학적인 개념이 도입 된지 이미 오래지만, 발파공학의 분야에 접목시키기 위한 노력은 최근에 들어와서 보다 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 시도에서 응답스펙트럼은 가장 기초적이며 필수적인 사항 중의 하나라고 생각되며, 본 고찰에서는 이러한 응답스펙트럼의 작성에 대한 기본적인 이해와 몇가지 작성 예를 들어 그 의미를 상기 해보고자 하였다.

일반적으로 규칙파 또는 불규칙파중에서의 반잠수식 해양구조물의 응답을 추정할때, 선형계에 적합한 주파수 영역해석법을 사용하고 있다. 대다수의 해양구조물은 Lower Hull과 단면적이 일정한 Column으로 구성되어 있지만, 만약 Column의 단면적이 홀수에 따라 변화한다면 복원력항에 비선형계를 적용해야만 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비선형 복원력을 고려한 반잠수식 해양구조물의 응답을 추정할 수 있는 시간 영역 해석법을 개발하였다. 그리고, Column형상이 다른 5개의 모델을 선정하여, 이들의 시간 영역 해석결과와 주파수 영역 해석 결과를 서로 비교하였다. 또한 파랑외력으로서 불규칙파를 적용할 때, 비선형 복원력이 해양구조물에 응답에 미치는 영향을 조사 하였다.

본 연구는 국제공동연구로 수행중인 Hualien 대형내진모델시험사업중 모델구조물에 대한 지진 응답 예측해석(blind prediction analysis)에 관한 것이다. 이 해석은 축대칭 무한요소를 이용하여 개발한 전산프로그램 KIESSI와 유연체적법에 의한 전산프로그램 SASSI를 이용하여 수행하였으며, 구조물 및 지반 특성은 뒷채움이 완료된 모델구조물에 대한 통일모델과 예측 후 상관해석 결과를 사용하였다. 그 결과 지진응답 예측해석 결과는 계측된 지진응답과 비교적 잘 일치하였으나 더 좋은 해석결과를 얻기 위해서는 구조물 및 지반 특성을 좀 더 수정할 필요가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

조화진동하는 점진원에 의한 반무한 탄성체의 응답해석을 수행해 탄성체의 임의의 깊이에서의 응답을 나타내는 계산식을 유도했다 이결과는 최근 연구개발이 진행되고 있는 조화진원에 의한 정밀 지하구조탐사에 중요한 이론적 바탕이 된다. 먼저 실용상 중요한 수평가진에 의한 응답을 계산했다 표면에 큰 응답이 표면파의 형태로 발생하지만 수평진원의 에너지 방사형태는 지향성을 가지고 있어 진원아래의 원뿔형의 영역이 크게 여기된다는 사실을 밝혔다.

이미 현존하는 건물의 경우는 진동실험을 통하여 바닥판에서의 정확한 진동응답을 찾아낼 수 있으나, 현존하지 않는 건물을 설계하고 있는 단계에서는 계산식이나 컴퓨터에 의한 동적해석으로 그 값을 예측할 수밖에 없다. 이러한 과정에서 간편하게 접근할 수 있는 방법이 국내외의 진동평가방법이나 기술지침서에 소개도어 있는 진동응답식을 이용하는 방법이다. 현존하는 건물의 경우에서도 복잡한 진동실험을 하기 전에 간단한 예비적 평가를 하기 위하여 이러한 계산식이 이용되기도 한다.(중략)

When a structure is damaged, its dynamic responses (natural frequency, acceleration, strain) are found to be changed. The ANN(Artificial Neural Network) damage-assesment method is that some measured dynamic signals from the structural changing dynamic responses are applied to ANN to assess the structural damage. Although there have been some studies on a certain typical cases so far, it is rare to find studies about the characteristics of the ANN damage-assesment method or about its applicability, its strength and weakness. So this study researches on the characteristics of ANN damage assesment method and on a problem in application of the various dynamic responses to ANN. What the ANN damage assessment method usually does in past researches is to teach an ANN by using some response signals obtained from damaged structures under one kind of excitations and to identify the locations and the extents of damage of same structures under the same excitations. However, the excitations inflicted on the structures are not always the same. Thus this study experiments whether a ANN which is trained using the same excitations is able to identify the damage when different excitations inflict. All response signals are obtained from experimental models.

This paper presents a seismic analysis technique for a 3D soil-structure interaction system in a frequency domain, based on the finite element formulation incorporating frequency-dependent infinite elements for the far field soil region. Earthquake input motions are regarded as traveling P, SV and SH waves which are incident vertically from the far-field soil region, and then equivalent earthquake forces are calculated using impedances of infinite soil by dynamic infinite elements and traction and displacement from free field response analysis. For verification and application, seismic response analyses are carried out for a multi-layered soil medium without structure and a typical nuclear power plant in consideration of soil-structure interaction. The results are compared with the free field response using a one-dimensional analytic solution, and a dynamic response of an example structure from another SSI package.

In this study, the possibility of seismic response control of semi-active tuned mass damper (TMD) for spatial structures has been investigated. To this end, an arch structure was used as an example structure because it has primary characteristics of spatial structures and it is a comparatively simple structure. A TMD and semi-active TMD were applied to the example arch structure and the seismic control performance of them were evaluated based on the numerical simulation. In order to regulate the damping force of the semi-active TMD, groundhook control algorithm, which is widely used for semi-active control, was used. El Centro (1940) and Northridge (1994) earthquakes and harmonic ground motion were used for performance evaluation of passive TMD and semi-active TMD. Based on the analytical results, the passive TMD could effectively reduce the seismic responses of the arch structure and it has been shown that the semi-active TMD more effectively decreased the dynamic responses of the arch structure compared to the passive TMD with respect to all the excitations used in this study.

This paper presents a dynamic analysis technique for a 2-D soil-structure interaction problem in the frequency domain, which can directly be applied as an analysis tool for seismic response analyses of underground structures, tunnels, embankments, and so on. In this method, the structure and near-field soil is modeled by the standard finite elements, while the unbounded far-field soil is represented using the dynamic infinite elements in the frequency domain. The earthquake-input motion is regarded as traveling P and SV waves which are incident vertically from the far-field of underlying half-space to the near-field of layered medium. The equivalent earthquake forces are then calculated utilizing so-called fixed-exterior-boundary-method and the free-field responses including displacements and tractions. For the verification of the present study, seismic response analyses are carried out for a multi-layered half-space free-field soil medium and a cylindrical cavity embedded in a homogeneous half-space. Comparisons of the present results with solutions by other approaches indicate that the proposed methodology gives accurate estimates. Finally, an application example of seismic response analysis for a subway station is presented, which demonstrates the applicability of the present study.
