In this study, the vibration analysis of the underground box structures induced train movement is studied. In order to perform these analysis, dynamic data, which was measured when subway is in service, are gained by attaching accelerometers on the structure such as lower beam, lateral wall and upper slab. Also, accelerometers are attached on the lower beams and side walls of the gravel ballast and concrete ballast sections in order to compare vibration due to ballast materials. The vibration results of upper slabs and lower beams reveal that the vibration on the upper slabs is greater than the lower beams. Also, the results of the crack gauge on the upper slab show that crack width dose not change due to vibration, These means that the effect of the vibration on the structure is very limited. In order to evaluate the vibration of the structure, acceleration unit is converted to velocity unit comparing with the existing velocity data gained from the platforms.

The flexibility of base material gives considerable influences on seismic responses of a structure. The effects of relative stiffness between super-structure and base material on dynamic soil-structure interaction are evaluated by parametric studies. Two 5-story buildings are used for the study; one is shearwall structure with relatively higher fundamental frequency and the other is frame structure with relatively lower fundamental frequency. The structures are modeled as beam-sticks coupled with springs and dashpots representing the base material. Dynamic equilibrium equations of the soil-structure interaction system are sloved by mode superposition method using Rosset modal damping values. Soil-structure interaction effect is found to be major concern in seismic analysis of shearwall structure in most cases while it seldom becomes engineering problem in frame-type structure. It is also found that seismic responses at lower elevation of the super-structure are amplified though they decrease at higher elevation as soil-structure interaction effects of the system increase.

본 연구에서는 수상위에 진수된 콘크리트 플로팅 폰툰에 상부골조를 단계별로 시공함에 따라 발생하는 추가 처짐이 상부골조에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고 하였다. 이러한 추가변형에 의한 상부골조에 추가 모멘트량을 산정하는 해석절차를 제시하였으며 제시된 절차에 따라 3층 예제 철골 건물을 해석하고 분석하였다. 제시된 시공단계를 고려한 해석 방법과 비교하여, 상부골조를 지반위에 고정하여 모델링하는 일반적인 해석은 수직하중에 의한 변형을 무시하여 설계하중을 과소평가 하며, 플로팅 구조물을 전체적으로 모델링하고 하부 폰툰에 등가의 스프링으로 치환하여 하중을 동시에 재하하는 모델은 과대한 처짐의 영향으로 설계하중을 과대 평가함을 알게 되었다.

The structure of PSC box girder with FRP strut has a form of supporting the cantilever part in the widened upper slab by modifying the existing PSC box girder efficiently, and it is able to build an economical and aesthetically pleasing bridge as it reduces the size of the lower structure by reducing the self-weight of the upper structure. In this research, loading test of PSC Box Girder using full-scale mock-up was conducted and FEM analysis was performed. By comparing results, structural safety of the FRP strut and the upper slab following application of the strut in the PSC Box Girder Bridge were evaluated.

The mass and stiffness of upper wall-lower frame system(mixed building structures) change sharply at transfer floor due to different structural system in upper and lower part. These mixed building structures generally show the stiffness, weight or geometric vertical irregularities. The purpose of this study is to investigate the response characteristics of these structures by push-over analysis and nonlinear time history analysis. For four types of analysed models, only the variation of upper wall stories was considered. The conclusions of this study are following; (1) In the push-over analysis, yielding hinges in beams and columns of lower frame occurred at the base shear of similar magnitude in all models. But as the number of stories of upper wall increases, yielding hinges at ends of coupling beams were observed in the small magnitude of base shear. (2) In the nonlinear time history analysis, yielding of lower frame occurred at beams with as small ground acceleration as 55gal, and in upper walls yielding was concentrated on coupling beams and shear walls near the transfer floor. (3) As the number of stories of upper walls decreases, the story stiffness of the lower frames decreased relatively and the occurrence of soft stories in the lower frame was observed.

상부벽식 하부골조를 가진 복합구조물은 부족한 대지를 효율적으로 활용하기 위하여 건설되고 있다. 이러한 복합건물은 상부벽식-하부골조를 가지는 구조로써 일반적으로 전이보 또는 전이판으로 상하부를 연결하고 있다. 따라서 상하부 구조사이의 강성과 질량에 많은 차이가 발생하게 된다. 구보물의 고유주기는 지진하중과 밑면전단력을 결정하기 위한 중요한 변수이다. 그러나 현재 국내 규준에서 제안하는 고유주기 산정식은 이러한 건물에는 적용할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 상부벽식-하부골조를 가진 복합구조물의 고유주기의 산정에 영향을 미치는 변수들 중 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 건물의 상하부 층수에 따른 변수만을 고려하여 고유주기산정식을 제안하였다. 하부는 2~5개 층을 가지고, 상부는 10~18개 층을 가지는 15~20층의 건물이면 정형적인 평면을 가지는 복합구조물로 한정하였다. 건물 내부의 채움벽에 대한 효과를 고려한 고유주기 제안식은 다음과 같다. 장변 방향 : $T_{L}$=($0.20H_{h}+0.05H_{i}$)/$sqrt{B}$-0.42 단변 방향 :$T_{S}$=($0.07H_{h}+0.12H_{i}$)/$sqrt{B}$-0.40

On an offshore plant topside, various types of offshore facilities for processing energy resources, such as oil and gas, and equipment and outfitting for connecting these facilities are installed in a limited space. An offshore plant superstructure is composed of numerous supporting rack structures and reinforcements for securing and supporting offshore installations and the related equipment. This paper describes the development of design support software to support this superstructure design efficiently. The developed design support software, which was based on AVEVA Marine's PML(Programmable Macro Language), supports the parametric method for superstructure design. A method of batch 3D modeling from 2D drawings for supporting rack structure produced in the basic and detailed design was also developed using AutoLisp. In addition, through the application example of superstructure module design, the design support software introduced in this paper can be expected to reduce the design time by more than 90% compared to the use of only basic functions of AVEVA PDMS.

Low crested coastal structures such as detached breakwaters and submerged breakwaters (artificial reefs) have been commonly used as coastal protection measures. The armour units of these structures are unstable than those in non-overtopped structure cases. The stability of low crested structures armoured by rock has been suggested in existing studies. In this study, the stability of Tetrapods armour units on theses structures has been investigated using two-dimensional hydraulic model tests. The effect of wave steepness and freeboard on the armour stability on crest, front, and the rear slope has been investigated. Armour units were mostly damaged near the upper part of the seaward slope and the crest of the seaward side. From the experimental data, the new empirical formula for the stability coefficients of the Tetrapods was proposed.

A reactor vessel internals comprehensive vibration assessment program (RVI CVAP) of an advanced power reactor 1400 (APR1400) is being performed as a non-prototype category-2 type of reactor based on the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulatory Guide (NRC RG) 1.20. The aim of this paper is to present the results of structural response analysis and measuring locations of a upper guide structure (UGS) assembly of the APR1400 reactor. The analysis results of the UGS assembly results show that meet the specified integrity levels of the design acceptance criteria. Also, the measuring locations are set by the analysis results of the UGS assembly and selection criteria of measuring locations prior to this study. These analysis results and measuring locations will be used as fundamental materials to design a measurement system for the APR1400 RVI CVAP.
