하천 복개나 하상 도로 등 교각이 밀집된 군교각은 홍수시에 큰 수위 상승을 유발할 수 있다. 이런 군교각에 의한 배수위 효과를 분석하기 위해 다양한 경우에 대한 실험과 2차원 수치 모의를 수행하였다. 수리 실험은 수치 모형의 정확도를 검증하기 위해 수행되었으며, 다양한 종류의 교각 배치 경우에 대해서는 수치 모의를 위주로 분석하였다. 수리 모형 실험을 통하여 2차원 수치 모형인 RMA-2의 신뢰성에 대해 검토한 결과 이 모형은 교각에 의한 수위 상승 효과를 상당한 정확도로 모의할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 군교각에 의한 수위상승 인자를 흐름 횡단면 교각 수, 흐름 방향의 교각 간격, 흐름방향의 교각 수로 선정하여 이들 변수들을 조합하여 다양한 경우에 대하여 수리 실험과 수치 모의를 병행하였다. 단일 횡단면의 교각 수 증가에 따른 배수위 상승은 횡단면의 차단율 증가에 따라 선형적으로 증가한다. 그러다가 차단율이 어느 정도 이상에 이르면 수위 상승이 매우 급격히 증가하는 경향을 보인다. 또한 흐름방향 교각 수 증가에 따라 배수위는 선형적으로 증가함을 알 수 있는데, 이는 교각에 의한 상호 간섭 및 중첩에 의한 것으로 생각된다. 흐름방향 교각 간격을 증가시켜도 배수위 상승이 크게 증가하였으나, 교각의 지름의 약 9배 (9D) 이상 떨어진 다음부터는 배수위 상승량이 감소하는 것을 알 수 있다. 이런 점에서 볼 때, 군교각은 교각 지름의 9배 정도 떨어진 경우 배수위 상승 효과가 중첩되지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

본연구의 목적은 반복하중을 받는 철근콘크리트 교량 교각의 비선형 이력거동을 해석적으로 예측하는 것이다 이를 위해서 반복적인 횡하중이 작용하는 경우에 실험결과와 일치하는 교각의 하중-변위 이력곡선을 도출하고자 수정된 trilinar 이력거동모델을 이용하였다 철근과 콘크리트의 비선형 거동특성과 각 하중단계에 따른 교각의 중립축을 구하여 소성힌지부의 모멘트와 변형률을 구하고 반복하중하에서의 강성의 변화를 해석적으로 모형화하기 위하여 각기 다른 강성을 갖는 5가지 지선을 갖춘 형태의 이력거동모델식을 제안하였다 본 연구에서는 실험적으로 구한 하중-변위 이력곡선을 이용하여 축하중비 주철근비 및 구속철근비에 따른 강도감소지수와 강성감소지수의 영향을 회귀분석을 이용하여 일반식으로 제안하였다 새로운 이력거동 해석 모델을 프로그램 SARCF III에 적용함으로써 기존 철근콘크리트 교각에 강도 및 강성감소 현상을 정확하게 예측하였다

A Precast Prefabricated Bridge Column using steel tube and prestressing bar was proposed for the application of precast method on substructure. A column specimen designed by the proposed bridge column system was made and performed a quasi-static test. The failure mode appeared to be a flexural failure and there is no damage on column segment connection. And it is good use of the self-centering ability by prestressing force. Test results showed that a column specimen satisfy the earthquake specification, and the structural stability was verified. Nonlinear finite element analysis was performed and compared with the test results. Force-displacement relation and location of crack from the analysis results were compared with the test results and it agreed well. The quantitative analysis was also performed by a parametric study using this modeling technique.

This paper presents a nonlinear finite element analysis procedure for the performance assessment of deteriorated reinforced concrete bridge columns. A computer program, named RCAHEST (Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology), was used to analyze these reinforced concrete structures. Material nonlinearity is taken into account by comprising tensile, compressive and shear models of cracked concrete and a model of reinforcing steel. Advanced deteriorated material models are developed to predict behaviors of deteriorated reinforced concrete bridge columns. The proposed numerical method for the performance of damaged reinforced concrete bridge columns is verified by comparison with reliable experimental results.

The purpose of this study is to assess the seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge columns using nonlinear 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.

A construction project of Incheon 2nd bridge, which is connected between the Incheon Song-Do New Town and the Incheon International Airport in Young-Jong-Do, have been proposed by the private capital in 1999. But the optimal span width in the bridge main span have not been decided in spite of the three investigations into the feasibility of ship's safe transit in this planned bridge. In this paper, we study the optimal main span width according to the traffic volume in the future traffic and the ship maneuverability of maximum size aspect. The result cf this study, Incheon 2nd bridge main span design is required to design two-way traffic scheme and 1,000m span width, which will satisfy the safe transit from the viewpoint of the traffic volume in the future traffic and the ship maneuverability maximum size.

In the companion paper, nonlinear finite element analysis procedures are presented for the seismic damage evaluation of RC bridge piers. This paper defines a damage index based on the predicted hysteretic behavior of a RC bridge pier. Damage indices aim to provide a means of quantifying numerically the damage in RC bridge piers sustained under earthquake loading. The proposed numerical method is applied to RC bridge piers tested by other, and compared to existing damage indices. The proposed numerical method gives a realistic prediction of damage throughout the loading cycles for several test specimens investigated.

The alignment modifications after completion of railway construction entail a lot of efforts and time as well as high additional costs. In the process of renewal of the existing railway alignment to offer higher-speed services, the effect of initial design parameters(e.g., intersection angle) on determination of allowable degree of improvement of horizontal curves under consideration of economic efficiency is investigated in this study. From the analysis results, in the case that there are obstacles at the tangent line, it was found that the larger angle of intersection has a significant effect on the permissible zone. In addition, as the intersection angle is increased, the permissible values of maximum curve radius and the length of transition curve becomes smaller and longer, respectively. It is expected that this study can contribute to the efficient and accurate prediction of the permissible zone according to the locations of obstacles and the size of intersection angle as well as improvement in the railway alignment without any additional costs.
