충적지반에 건설된 원형 단면을 갖는 터널은 지진시에 지반의 전단 변형의 영향을 받아 좌우교차로 경사진 타원형상의 변형을 반복한다. 본 논문에서는 이 특별한 진동모드를 이용하여 지반-터널계의 상호작용 및 면진 효과가 검토되었다. 지반과 터널의 경계가 완전히 결합되어 있는 경우에 대한 지반 -터널계의 상호작용 효과 및 지하 구조물의 지진피해를 줄이는 한가지 방법으로써 터널 주위를 면진재로 피복하는 방법에 대한 면진효과가 토론되었다. 그 결과 면진재의 포아송비를 작게 하거나 지반과 면진재의 전단탄성계수의 비를 증가시킴으로서 면진 효가가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, seismic isolation technology to the lighthouse structure is suggested and isolation effects on response reduction are studied for three types of isolation models with the proposed seismic isolation technology. A seismic isolation system is installed on the base of the lighthouse structure in model 1, on the base of the lighthouse lens in model 2, and on the base of both of them in model 3. The dynamic time history analysis verifies that in case of model 1, the earthquake loading is greatly reduced and the accelerations of superstructure are greatly reduced. Also, the inter-story drifts are very small and can be neglected. The isolated model is in translational state and can be seen as a rigid whole. as a results, model 1 is very effective to mitigate the influence of earthquake on structures. In model 2, isolation effects are valid but special care should be taken to failure of the non-isolated lighthouse sub-structure. In model 3, isolation effects are also valid but the effects are small. model 3 is less effective than model 1.

Seismic isolation offers an attractive approach for reducing seismic loads in the building and its components. This paper deals with the seismic isolation effects due to variation in period ratio between superstructure and isolation layer of the building. Seismic isolation effects of the moment-resisting frames with the various period ratio were studied by nonlinear time history analysis, and the guidelines on the stiffness ratio of the superstructure and isolation layer of the building for the effective seismic isolation follow from the results of this study. It is recommended that the isolation period should be greater than 2.5 times of that of the superstructure for the effective seismic isolation.

면진기술은 주로 저층 구조물의 내진설계에서 적용되는 방법으로 건물과 기초사이에 면진장치를 설치하여 상부로 전달되는 지진하중을 효과적으로 감소시킨다. 그러나 이 방법은 중.고층 구조물에 그대로 적용하기에는 여러 가지 기술적 문제가 따르므로, 구보물의 중간층 일부를 분리시켜 상부로 전달되는 지진력을 감소시킬 수 있을 것이다. 본 노문에서는 저층 뿐만 아니라, 중.고층 정형구조물의 주상복합건물과 같은 비정형 구조물에 대하여 구조물의 중간층 일부를 비선형 면진장치로 면진시키고 그 효과를 분석하였다. 이러한 중간층 면진 구조물의 경우, 고정기초 구조물에 비하여 적은 층간변위나 층전단력이 발생하였으며, 특히 주상복합건물에서 상당한 효과를 볼 수 있었다.

This study presents the optimal isolation period according to the number of vertically expended stories in order to provide the basic data for the application of the seismic isolation system in the vertically expended remodeling of the aged apartment. As a result of the structural analysis, the isolation period should be at least twice the primary structure in three-story vertical expansion, three times in two-story expansion, and four times in one-story expansion for the effective application of the isolation system. On the basis of the result, the efficacy of an isolation system for the actual apartment structure, which is three-story vertically expended, was analytically verified. The maximal acceleration response on the top floor reduced by 70% and 65% of the non-isolated structure in the X and Y directions respectively. Additionally, the base shear force decreased by 30% in the both directions, compared to the non-isolated structure.

After obtaining tensile and compressive stiffness as well as shear stiffness of elastomeric seismic isolator experimentally, those stiffness were modeled analytically using nonlinear computer program. To induce tensile stress due to overturning in the seismic isolators of an isolated frame for horizontal force, free vibration simulations generated by large initial displacement were conducted. Since elastomeric seismic isolator is weak for tensile stress, the axial stiffness of isolators shall be included properly in the analytical model to evaluate the uplift phenomenon of elastomeric seismic isolator.

In this study, we examined the seismic isolation effects due to the difference between the center of mass of the building and the center of stiffness of isolation layer. Because the base isolation technique is a technique that is highly dependent on the performance of seismic isolation devices installed on the seismic isolation layer, we have to examine the horizontal stiffness of seismic isolation devices after making them. If difference between the design stiffness and the actual stiffness of the seismic isolation device occurred, a big problem may be generated in the upper members on the seismic isolation layer. The analytical results show that the more eccentricity increases, the more maximum response acceleration, story shear and the member forces of the upper part of the structure increases, and the damage is expected to be in excess. Therefore, it is recommended that if possible, isolation devices have to be designed to coincide the center of mass of the building with the center of stiffness of isolation layer. If not after making isolation devices, they need to be relocated to prevent the eccentricity.

최근 국제적으로 지진 발생 규모가 증대하고 있으며, 우리나라를 비롯한 많은 나라에서 구조물 및 주요 시설물에 대한 내진설계에 관심이 증대되고 있다. 지진방재는 건물자체의 안전성뿐만 아니라 내부설비 및 소장품에 대한 안전성까지 종합적으로 검토되어야 하며 이를 위한 대책이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구의 주요목적은 예측 불가한 자연재해인 지진에 대해 일반적인 면진성능을 갖는 기초격리장치로서의 기능을 충실히 수행할 수 있는지를 확인하기 위하여 면진장치를 사용한 구조물의 면진효과를 검증하는 것이다. 또한 설계된 스프링의 탄성계수에 따른 실제 지진 시 응답의 차이를 알아보기 위하여 공진실험 및 진동대 실험을 실시하여 면진테이블 시스템의 면진성능을 평가하였다. 진동대 실험은 미국 "NEBS Requirements"에서 규정하는 요구응답스펙트럼에 상응하는 임의 지진파를 적용하였고 각각 x축과 z축 가진 후, x-y-z 축을 동시에 가진하여 수행하였다. 시험응답스펙트럼(Test Response Spectrum)은 요구응답스펙트럼(RRS)에 포락하도록 시험하여 최대가속도는 x축 방향 가진 시 90%의 감쇠효과가 나타났으며, 3축 방향 가진 시 x축 방향은 58%, y축 방향은 31%의 감쇠효과가 나타났다. 최대상대변위는 설계스트로크 140mm에 대하여 최대 85.54mm의 변위가 발생하여 안정적인 거동을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 면진테이블 시스템은 중요 첨단장비 및 문화재 등의 전도 및 파괴를 방지하는 데 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

Rubber bearings may exhibit a significant cold temperature effect and some velocity dependency(strain rate effect). Both of these attributes which affect non-linear behavior must be accounted for when accurately modeling the bearings behavior, therefore, an analytical models is proposed to consider the effects of the cold temperature and strain rate on both rubber and lead. From the results of an experimental investigation where the frozen bearings were tested under lateral cyclic loading with constant axial load, a non-linear system identification with least squares procedure was applied to determine the material properties of rubber and lead. It is demonstrated that the proposed analytical model is able to simulate the reversed cyclic loading behavior of elastometric and lead-rubber bearings.

Scientific community agrees about the fact that base Isolation provides interesting solutions to minimize the seismic risk. Reliability of such a technique is nowadays proofed by a large number of applications like public buildings, nuclear plants, bridges, etc. This paper reports the results of performance verification tests of the base isolated RC building with the laminated rubber bearings which is manufactured by enterprise in Korea. The shaking table tests were performed using a three story model scaled to 1/3 of the prototype RC apartment building. Several major earthquake records were scaled to different peak ground accelerations and used as input base excitations. Especially in this study, effect of earthquake characteristics on response reduction and effect of the intensity of excitations are studied. Through the verification tests, the validity of the applied base isolaion device and the response reduction effect against earthquakes are confirmed.
