We propose and present a new multiplexed bend loss type single-mode fiber-optic sensor system for displacement measurement in order to measure the displacement of several mm of civil engineering structures such as bridges and buildings. We make a bend loss type fiber-optic sensor for measuring displacements using the signal difference between two reflection signals due to various bend losses generating at a pair of optical connectors by using the optical time domain reflectometer. And we fabricate a multiplexed bend loss type fiber-optic sensor detecting linear displacements of 4 measuring positions of an object by setting these new 4 fiber-optic sensors on a single mode fiber simultaneously. We find that the multiplexed fiber-optics displacement sensor has linearity of 0.9942, maximum displacement of 6 mm, and accuracy of 6% for 4 measuring points.

Based on the field measuring data obtained from excavation sections in Inchon International Airport project, the relationships between the horizontal displacement of sheet-pile walls and the deformations of soft ground around the excavation were investigated. The horizontal displacements of walls according to supporting method occur, and the displacements were found to become larger in the order of anchors, anchors with struts, and struts. The depths of maximum horizontal displacement are varied with supporting systems. If the stability number shows lower than ${\pi}$, the maximum horizontal displacement and the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement are respectively developed less than $1\%$ of excavation depth and 1mm/day. When the stability number shows lower than ${\pi}+2$, the maximum horizontal displacement and the velocity are respectively developed less than $2.5\%$ of excavation depth and 2mm/day. Also, when the stability number shows more than ${\pi}+2$, the maximum horizontal displacement and the velocity rapidly increase. Also, the maximum horizontal displacement is found to increase rapidly when N value is less than 10. The maximum horizontal displacement increases with decreasing the factor of safety against basal heave (Terzaghi, 1943), and the maximum horizontal displacement is found to increase rapidly when the factor of safety against basal heave is greater than 2.0. This value can be proposed as the criterion for the factor of safety against basal heave in Korea.

In this study, the method to measure effectively the ground surface displacement of slope was proposed using the Laser Distance Measurer (LDM). Applying the proposed technique is more simple and easier than the complicated and high-priced instrument to measure the ground surface displacement. LDM is an instrument that the red laser aimed at the target and then the reflected laser used for calculating the distance. The advantages of LDM are easy operating method, high measurement precision and lower in price. To check the feasibility, the proposed method applied to the real site that the ground surface displacement of slope was occurred continuously. The ground surface displacements were occurred in various points of the natural and cut slopes located at the lower part of coal mine waste heap due to the load of waste heap. To measure directly the ground surface displacement in this site, 6 measurement sections and 26 measurement points were selected. As the result of the displacement measured by the proposed technique within a certain period time, the accumulative ground surface displacement could be measured as well as the velocity of displacement could be estimated. Also, the progress direction of ground surface displacement can be confirmed and predicted through the analysis of all measured result.

Dynamic displacements of structures shows general behavior of structures. Generally, It is used to estimate structure condition and trustworthy physical quantity directly. Especially, measuring vertical displacement which is affected by moving load is very important part to find or identify a problem of bridge in advance. However directly measuring vertical displacement of the bridge is difficult because of test conditions and restriction of measuring equipment. In this study, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used to suggest estimation method of bridge displacement to overcome constrain conditions, restriction and so on. Horizontal strain and vertical displacement which are measured by appling random moving load on the bridge are applied for learning and verification of ANN. Measured horizontal strain is used to learn ANN to estimate vertical displacement of the bridge. Numerical analysis is used to acquire learning data for axis strain and vertical displacement for applying ANN. Moving load scenario which is made by vehicle type and vehicle distance time using Pearson Type III distribution is applied to analysis modeling to reflect real traffic situation. Estimated vertical displacement in respect of horizontal strain according to learning result using ANN is compared with vertical displacement of experiment and it presents vertical displacement of experiment well.

Field monitoring data for embankments in thirteen road construction sites at coastal area of the Korean Peninsula were analyzed to investigate the characteristics of lateral flow in soft grounds, to which vertical drain methods were applied. First of all, the effect of the embankment scale on the lateral flow was investigated. Thicker soft soils and lager relative embankment scale produced more horizontal displacements in soft grounds. Especially, if thick soft grounds were placed, the relative embankment scale, which was given by the ratio of thickness of soft ground to the bottom width of embankments, became larger and in turn large horizontal displacement was produced. And also higher filling velocity of embankments induced more horizontal displacements in soft grounds. The other major factors affecting the lateral flow in soft ground were the thickness and undrained shear strength of soft grounds, the soil modulus and the stability number. Maximum horizontal displacement was induced by less undrained shear strength and soil modulus of soft grounds. Also more stability numbers produced more maximum horizontal displacements. When the shear deformation does not develop, the stability number was less than 3.0 and the safety factor of bearing was more than 1.7. However, if the stability number was more than 5.14 and the safety factor of bearing was less than 1.0, the unstable shear failure developed in soft ground. 50mm can be recommended as a criterion of the allowable maximum horizontal displacement to prevent the shear deformation in soft ground, while 100mm can be recommended as a criterion of the allowable maximum horizontal displacement to prevent the shear failure in soft ground.

GPS와 VLBI와 같은 우주측지 기술을 이용한 정밀 측위는 수 mn 정밀도의 관측소 좌표결정과 1 mm/year 정도의 고정밀 속도결정에 이용된다. 이를 위해서는 여러 가지 오차 요인들과 다양한 물리적 현상에 대한 모델링이 이루어져야 한다. 그 중의 하나가 해수 하중(ocean loading)에 의한 수직방향의 지각변위이다. 특히 한반도의 서해안은 복잡한 리아스식 해안으로 이루어져 있고, 조수간만의 차이가 크기 때문에 현존하는 모델의 정확도가 떨어진다. KVN(Korean VLBI Network)사업에서 추진하는 3기의 VLBI 중 2기가 서울과 제주도에 설치될 계획이므로, 해수하중에 의한 지각변위에 관한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 또한 국내 GPS상시관측소의 많은 수가 서해안 지역에 설치되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 서해안 지역의 해수하중에 의한 수직방향의 지각변위를 GPS로 관측하고 이를 서해안 해수조류 모델의 정밀도를 향상시키는데 필요한 기초연구를 수행하였다. 서해안의 4개 GPS 관측소 위치에서의 해수하중에 의한 지각변위를 계산해본 결과 인천 지역에는 3 cm에 육박하는 지각변위가 수직으로 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 같은 크기와 위상의 지각변위 진폭을 GPS로 검출하기 위한 여러 가지 오차 보정과 GIPSY를 이용한 고정밀 키네마틱 GPS 자료처리에 대하여 상세히 소개한다.

최근에 상용화되어 있는 영상 중 가장 고해상도인 ikonos 영상은 공간해상도가 높기 때문에 더 많은 지형지물 정보를 포함하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 커다란 장점과 더불어 고층건물이나 높은 표고의 지형에서 발생하는 기복변위 보정이라는 소축척 영상에서 볼 수 없었던 새로운 문제가 등장하였다. 특히, 이러한 고해상도 영상들은 산악지역에서 식생에 대한 세밀한 정보를 제공하지만 상대적으로 높은 고도를 가지고 있기 때문에 발생하는 기복왜곡과 그림자 효과가 자료의 이용에 제한요인으로 작용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 ikonos 고유의 센서정보와 수치지형도를 통하여 획득한 DEM(수치표고모델)을 이용하여 정밀편위보정방법(Difference rectification method) 방법에 의해 기하보정을 수행하고 그 결과 발생하는 산악지역에서는 기복변위를 분석하였다.

본 연구에서는 이동제한장치가 있는 연속교의 지진응답특성을 고찰하였다. 일점고정연속교에 있어서 이동제한장치는 교각이 탄성거동을 하는 경우 교축방법 수평력 분산기능이 있으며 교각하부에 소성힌지가 발생하거나 내진분리베어링이 있는 경우에는 최대변위 및 비탄성거동에 따른 잔류변위제한에 매우 효과적이다. 상부구조와 이동제한장치의 충돌시 발생하는 충격력은 완충재의 사용으로 상당히 감소시킬 수 있다. 이동제한장치의 설치위치 및 이격거리는 이동제한장치가 설치될 하부구조의 강성 및 강도와 온도변화, 급제동력, 작은 지진발생시 충돌여부, 신축이음장치유간 등을 고려하여 결정되어야 한다.

본 논문에서는 상사진동에서의 응답을 통해 구성된 모드유연도에 의해 추정되는 손상유발 변위를 이용하여 전당빌딩의 손상을 탐지하는 진동기반의 손상탐지 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 전단빌딩의 층간변위를 활용하여 오직 손상이 존재할 때에만 발생하는 Damage-induced inter-story deflection (DI-ID)을 통해 손상탐지를 수행하는 방법이다. 구조물의 전체 자유도에 양의 전단력을 발생시킴으로써 층간변위를 분명히 파악할 수 있도록 하는 양전단력 탐색하중(Positive Shear Inspection Load)을 통해 DI-ID를 산정한다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위해 5층의 전단빌딩 축소모형을 대상구조물로 선정하여 수치모의실험을 수행했다. 단일손상과 다중손상의 모사를 위해 1층과 3층의 휨강성을 각각 10% 씩 저감시켰고, 수치모의실험 결과, 단일손상과 다중손상 모두 정확히 손상발생 구역을 확인했다.

The lateral behavior characteristics of concrete group pile under the lateral load were examined by the laboratory model tests in this study. Piles were socketed 1D(D : pile diameter) in the concrete block, and model tests were executed on $2{\times}3$ group piles, of which the length were 11D, 15D and 20D. All results of loading tests under each condition was presented by the lateral load-displacement curves, and the displacements in the ground under the lateral loads were measured. As a results of model tests, as the ratio of pile length/diameter(L/D) was decreased, the yielding load and the lateral displacement at that load were increased. The yielding load was evaluated as the load at lateral displacement of 15 mm. The yielding loads at the pile length of 11D, 15D and 20D were 11.7, 6.2kN and 3.4kN. The lateral displacements of pile in the ground under each condition were measured linearly and the failure occurred at the location where the piles were socketed in concrete block.
