The demand of natural gas is gradually increasing as a clean fuel in the world. Therefore, LNG storage tanks and related facilities of the importance of leading a community-based facility have emerged. The seismic design of LNG storage tank including seismic analysis have been developed steadily. But, the seismic analysis and design techniques for LNG storage tanks are lacking, in Korea. Consequently, it is necessary to develop an analysis model that LNG storage tanks in isolation system can describe the behavior. Further, LNG storage tank capable of ensuring safety and economy, it is necessary to develop design techniques. The studies have suggested seismic design procedures of LNG storage tanks with isolation system including triple-FPB and idealized complex hysteresis model of triple-FPB.

In this study, we made two types of main control room floor systems (Type I, Type II) and several shaking table tests with and without isolation system were conducted to evaluate floor isolation effectiveness of LRB(Lead Rubber Bearing). Both type showed large difference according to input earthquake signals, but showed little difference according to floor type. It is required to make LRB of which design frequency is below 1Hz when applied to main control room of NPP, but considering much difficulties in making such LRB, it is recommended that consideration should be taken into account when applied to main control room of NPP.

The seismic characteristics with Friction Pendulum System have been studied using a shaking table system. In this study, we made two kind of floor system (Type I, Type II) and several seismic tests with and without isolation system were conducted to evaluate floor isolation effectiveness of Friction Pendulum System. Both type have showed large reduction effectiveness in acceleration, response spectra but Type II have showed lower acceleration and lower first mode in response spectra, compared to type I. On the basis of test results and consideration of application, it is found that type II is more suitable for floor model of main control room of Nuclear Power Plant.

The seismic characteristics with 3-Dimensional isolation systems have been studied using a shaking table system. In this study, we made nuclear power plant main control room floor systems and several seismic shaking table tests with and without isolation systems were conducted to evaluate floor isolation effectiveness. Isolation systems have showed large reduction effectiveness in acceleration and response spectra with x and z direction respectively, but horizontal isolation is more effective than vertical one It is required to make isolation systems of which design frequency is below 1Hz when applied to main control room of NPP, but considering much difficulties in making such isolation systems, it is recommended that much consideration should be taken into account when applied to main control room of NPP.

이 논문에서는 LNG 탱크를 지진으로부터 격리시키는 면진장치의 일종인 마찰진자시스템(FPS)의 성능변화에 따른 구조물 응답 및 지진취약도를 분석하였다. 마찰진자시스템(FPS)에 사용되는 마찰재 시편을 PVDF와 $TiO_2$의 배합비율에 따라 제작하였다. 제작한 마찰재 시편의 물성을 면진받침에 적용하여 구조물의 가속도 응답 및 외조 콘크리트의 하부 모멘트에 대하여 분석하고 각각의 한계상태에 대해 지진취약도를 분석하였다. 구조물의 지진취약도 분석을 통한 최적의 배합비를 가지는 마찰재 선정을 위해 각 한계상태에 따른 지진취약도 곡선의 가중치 설정 후 조합이 필요한 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통하여 다양한 구조물에 적용되는 마찰진자시스템의 요구 성능을 만족하는 최적의 마찰재 선정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

ASCE 4 requires that a hard stop be built around the seismic isolation system in nuclear power plants. In order to maintain the function of the isolation system, this hard stop is required to have clearance-to-stop, which should be no less than the 90th-percentile displacements for 150% Design Basis Earthquake (DBE) shaking. Huang et al. calculated clearance-to-stop by using a Latin Hypercube Sampling technique, without considering the rocking behavior of the isolated structure. This paper investigates the effects on estimation of clearance-to-stop due to 1) rocking behavior of the isolated structure and 2) sampling technique for considering the uncertainties of isolation system. This paper explains the simplified analysis model to consider the rocking behavior of the isolated structure, and the input earthquakes recorded at Diablo Canyon in the western United States. In order to more accurately approximate the distribution tail of the horizontal displacement in the isolated structure, a modified Latin Hypercube Sampling technique is proposed, and then this technique was applied to consider the uncertainty of the isolation system. Through the use of this technique, it was found that rocking behavior has no significant effect on horizontal displacement (and thus clearance-to-stop) of the isolated structure, and the modified Latin Hypercube Sampling technique more accurately approximates the distribution tail of the horizontal displacement than the existing Latin Hypercube Sampling technique.

As the number of high-rise buildings increases, a mid-story isolation system has been proposed for high-rise buildings. Due to structural problems, an appropriate isolation layer displacement is required for an isolation system. In this study, the mid-story isolation system was designed and the seismic response of the structure was investigated by varying the yield strength and the horizontal stiffness of the seismic isolation system. To do this, a model with an isolation layer at the bottom of $15^{th}$ floor of a 20-story building was used as an example structure. Kobe(1995) and Nihonkai-Chubu(1983) earthquake are used as earthquake excitations. The yield strength and the horizontal stiffness of the seismic isolation system were varied to determine the seismic displacement and the story drift ratio of the structure. Based on the analytical results, as the yield strength and horizontal stiffness increase, the displacement of the isolation layer decreases. The story drift ratio decreases and then increases. The displacement of the isolation layer and the story drift ratio are inversely proportional. Increasing the displacement of the isolation layer to reduce the story drift ratio can cause the structure to become unstable. Therefore, an engineer should choose the appropriate yield strength and horizontal stiffness in consideration of the safety and efficiency of the structure when a mid-story isolation system for a high-rise building is designed.

본 연구에서는 마찰모델에 따라 다른 마찰진자시스템(FPS)이 적용된 교량의 성능을 비교·분석하기 위해 구조해석을 수행하였다. 마찰해석모델 별 성능을 분석하기 위해 PVDF/MgO 마찰재의 마찰계수를 활용하여 쿨롱 마찰모델과 속도 의존 마찰모델을 구축했다. 쿨롱 마찰모델은 마찰속도와 관계없이 단일 마찰계수를 사용하며, 속도 의존 마찰모델은 마찰속도에 따른 마찰계수의 변화를 반영하는 마찰모델이다. 지진해석으로 비선형 시간 이력 해석과 지진 취약도 해석을 수행하여 구조물의 응답을 확인하였다. 마찰모델에 따른 바닥판과 교각의 지진 응답을 활용해 면진된 교량의 성능을 분석하였으며, 면진된 교량의 성능을 효과적으로 평가할 수 있는 마찰모델을 분석했다.

Because a smart isolation system cannot be used as a base isolation system for tall buildings, top-story or mid-story isolation systems are required. In this study, adaptability of a smart top-story isolation system for reduction of seismic responses of tall buildings in regions of low-to-moderate seismicity has been investigated. To this end, 20-story example building structure was selected and an MR damper and low damping elastomeric bearings were used to compose a smart base isolation system. Artificial earthquakes generated based on design spectrum of low-to-moderate seismicity regions are used for structural analyses. Based on numerical simulation results, it has been shown that a smart top-story isolation system can effectively reduce both structural responses and isolation story drifts of the building structure in low-to-moderate seismicity regions in comparison with a passive top-story isolation system.
