지반-구조물 상호작용해석에 부분구조법의 적용성 확인과 해석법의 개선을 모색하기 위하여, 대만 Hualien지방에 건설한 대형 내진시험 구조물의 뒷채움후 강제진동시험 결과를 부분구조법으로 예측하고 예측후상관해석을 수행하였다. 모델로서는 재료시험과 지반조사 결과로 작성된 통일모델과 예측후상관해석모델을 사용하였으며, 해석은 진동 수영역과 시간영역에서 각각 이루어졌다 연구 결과로 깊이 묻힌 구조물의 경우는 구조물이 묻힌 측면지반의 영향인 수평병진과 수평축회전의 연계 임피던스함수에 대한 적절한 평가와 해석시에 반드시 고려되어야함을 알 수 있었다.

The liquefaction of reclaimed land generally caused the harbor facilities to hazards. In Korea, the major harbor quay walls are gravity type and the gravity quay wall is not a good earthquake resistant structure. Recently, various earthquake resistant quay walls have been suggested, but the study on the efficiency of reinforced quay wall was not much performed. In this study, numerical analysis is carried out for performance evaluation of easily adoptable earthquake resistant quay walls. The results of numerical analysis are compared with shaking table test that is performed at the same cross-section.

The purpose of this study is to assess the seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge columns using inelastic finite element analysis. The accuracy and objectivity of the assessment process may be enhanced by the use of sophisticated nonlinear finite element analysis program. A computer program, named RCAHEST (Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology), for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures was used. Damage index aims to provide a means of quantifying numerically the damage in reinforced concrete bridge columns sustained under earthquake loading. The proposed numerical method for the seismic performance assessment of reinforced concrete bridge columns is verified by comparison with reliable experimental results.

In this paper, we describe the development of a finite-element model for seismic qualification. This paper presents finite-element analysis model of the electronic enclosure to be used at Arkansas nuclear power plant, USA. The verified model predicts natural frequencies within 5% error for all major modes below 50 Hz. The finite element lumped mass approach and the finite element stiffness approach using the COSMOSM finite element code is applied for static, eigenvalue, and dynamic analyses of the mathematical model of this system. The FEM model indicates that the stress levels corresponding to the specified loading conditions are below the allowable stress levels that have been specified in the AISC Code. The findings conclude that the electronic enclosure will withstand the seismic levels stated in the reference documents.

A new earthquake design method performing iterative calculations using secant stiffness was developed. The proposed design method has the advantages of convenience and stability in numerical analysis because it uses elastic analysis. At the same time, the proposed design method can accurately estimate the strength and ductility demands on the members because it performs the analysis on the inelastic behavior of structure using iterative calculation. In the present study, the procedure of the proposed design method was established, and a computer program incorporating the proposed method was developed. Design examples using the proposed method were presented, and its advantages were presented by the comparisons with existing design methods using elastic or inelastic analysis. The proposed design method, as an integrated method of analysis and design, can address the earthquake design strategy devised by the engineer. such as ductility limit on each member, the design concept of strong column - weak beam, and etc. In addition, through iterative calculations on the structure preliminarily designed only with member sizing, the strength and ductility demands of each member can be directly calculated so as to satisfy the given design strategy. As the result. economical and safe design can be achieved.

As a new structural system, the diagrid system resists both gravity and lateral loads with diagonal columns. In current seismic design provisions, however, the response modification factor for a new structural system is not provided yet. ATC-63 provides a new methodology for defining various seismic performance factors, including the response modification factor. ATC-63 includes the collapse margin ratio in modifying the response modification factor, which can vary with many structural systems. In this paper, a non-linear static analysis and a dynamic analysis were conducted for four different diagrid models with 4-to 36-story heights. From these analyses, the response modification factor of the diagrid system was evaluated.

Recently, the seismic safety evaluation of concrete gravity dams is raised due to the damage or the failure of dams occurred by the 1995 Kobe earthquake, the 1999 Taiwan earthquake, etc. Failre of dam may incur loss of life and properties around the dam as well as damage to dam structure itself. Recently, there has been growing much concerns about 'earthquake-resistance' or 'seismic safety'of existing concrete gravity dams designed before current seismic design provisions were implemented. This research develops three evaluation levels for seismic safety of concrete gravity dams on the basis of the evaluation method of seismic safety of concrete gravity dams in U.S.A., Japan, Canada, and etc. level 1 is a preliminary evaluation which is for purpose f screening. Level 2 is a pseudo-static evaluation on the basis of the seismic intensity method. Finally, level 3 is a detail evaluation by the dynamic analysis. Evaluation results on existing concrete gravity dam on operation showed good seismic performance under the designed artificial earthquake.

In this study, we evaluated the seismic performance of a masonry building that was not designed to be earthquake-resistant and attempted to improve the seismic performance by adopting a seismic reinforcement method on the exterior of the building. In addition, the building seismic design standards and commentary(KDS 41 17 00:2019) and existing facility(building) seismic performance evaluation methods were applied to evaluate seismic performance, and a pushover analysis was performed using non-linear static analysis. As the result of this study, it was determined that seismic reinforcement was urgent because the distribution rate of earthquake-resistant design of houses in Korea was low and masonry structures accounted for a large proportion of houses. When reinforcing the steel beam-column+brace frame in a masonry building, the story drift angle was 0.043% in the X direction and 0.047% in the Y direction, indicating that it satisfied the regulations. The gravity load resistance capacity by performance level was judged to be a safe building because it was habitable in both X and Y directions. In conclusion, it is believed that the livability and convenience of the house can be secured by reinforcing the exterior of the building and the seismic performance and behavior of the structure can be clearly predicted.
