A realistic lifetime seismic-reliability based approach is unavoidable to perform Life-Cycle Cost (LCC)-effective optimum design, maintenance, and retrofitting of structures against seismic risk. So far, though a number of researchers have proposed the LCC-based seismic design and retrofitting methodologies, most researchers have only focused on the methodological point. Accordingly, in most works, they have not been quantitatively considered critical factors such as the effects of seismic retrofit, maintenance, and environmental stressors on lifetime seismic reliability assessment of deteriorating structures. Thus, in this study, a systemic lifetime seismic reliability analysis methodology is proposed and a program HPYER-DRAIN2DX-DS is developed to perform the desired lifetime seismic reliability analysis. To demonstrate the applicability of the program, it is applied to an example bridge with or without seismic retrofit and maintenance strategies. From the numerical investigation, it may be positively stated that HYPER-DRAIN2DX-DS can be utilized as a useful numerical tool for LCC-effective optimum seismic design, maintenance, and retrofitting of bridges.

Albeit numerous endeavors in matching names and surveying inventors, inventor-level studies of patent data have been scarce because unique inventors can not be identified across patents. Using the Korean patent data with inventor IDs, birth year, and gender available, we construct unique inventor-level panel data. As the first undertaking with our data, we investigate the age profile of patent productivity among inventors. We find an inverted U-shaped profile with the peak at age 31. We also find an increasing productivity for younger cohorts of inventors. These findings are robust after we control for the calendar year effects and the quality of patents.

전 세계적으로 홍수의 발생빈도가 증가함에 따라, 하천 내 홍수피해를 경감하기 위해 설치하는 하천시설에 대한 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 하천시설은 홍수조절, 이수를 위한 흐름의 제어와 유도, 자연환경의 유지 및 개선 등 중요한 역할을 하고 있으나, 구조적으로 물과의 접촉이 많아 물리적 손상이나 노후화가 매우 빠르게 진행되는 특성이 있다. 시설물의 노후화가 지속될수록 안정성을 보장하기 어려워 자연재난의 규모를 증가시킬 위험성이 있다. 하천시설의 선제적 유지관리를 위해, 본 연구에서는 시설물통합정보관리시스템(Facilty Management System; FMS)의 정밀안전진단 결과를 활용하여 시설물의 사용연수에 따른 성능지표의 변화를 기반으로 회귀식 형태의 성능평가모델을 개발하였다. 기존연구와의 비교를 통해 성능평가모델의 적합성을 확인하였으며, 개발한 성능평가모델은 하천시설의 생애주기를 통합적으로 고려함으로써 정량적인 상태를 예측할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서 제안된 성능평가모델 결과는 하천시설의 생애주기 관리를 위한 기초자료로 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

최근 홍수 시 제방붕괴로 인한 인명 및 재산피해가 증가되고 있어 노후화된 제방 시설물의 안전관리 체계에 대한 필요성으로 국토교통부에서는 국가하천유지보수 종합체계 시스템을 개발하였으나 아직 시범단계로 실무에 적용하여 활용하고 있지 못한 실정이다. 효율적인 국가하천시설에 대한 유지관리를 위한 자료D/B화 및 관리대장, 점검기법, 보수보기법 등을 제시하고 있으나 국가하천에 국한되어 있어 전국단위 하천시설물의 전주기에 대한 통합적인 관리는 반영되어 있지 못하다. 하천시설물 생애주기관리를 위해서는 모든 하천시설물에 대한 이력관리가 필요하나 현재는 시설물의 안전관리에 관한 특별법(시특법) 상의 1, 2종 시설물에 대해서만 시설물정보관리종합시스템(FMS)에서 이력관리를 수행하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국가하천 및 지방하천에 대한 하천시설물의 생애주기 관리방안을 도출하기 위해 기존의 시스템의 기능 및 구조를 분석하였으며 이를 통해 하천시설물 생애주기 관리방안을 제시하였다.

지금까지 사회보장제도(社會保障制度)의 경제적(經濟的) 효율성(效率性)에 대한 많은 논의가 있어 왔다. 그러나 그중 생애주기(生涯週期)(life-cycle)에 바탕을 둔 일반균형연산모형(一般均衡演算模型)(AGE : Applied General Equilibrium)에 의환 경험적 분석은 미진하였다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)의 목적(目的)은 사회보장제도(社會保障制度)의 세대내(世代內) 생애소득분위간(生涯所得分位間) 재분배효과(再分配效果)와 경제적(經濟的) 효율성(效率性)을 분석하는 데 있다. 연구방법으로서 Fullerton and Rogers(1993) 모형을 수정한 일부문(一部門), 다소비자(多消費者) 생애주기(生涯週期) 일반균형연산모형(一般均衡演算模型)을 이용하였다. 본 연구는 미국을 대상으로 한 정상상태(定常狀態)(steady state)의 분석이며, 소비자(消費者)를 생애소득별(生涯所得別)로 5분위(分位)로 나누어 기존 사회보장세(社會保障稅) 및 급여(給與)가 경제적(經濟的) 효율성(效率性)뿐만 아니라 계층간(階層間)의 분배(分配)에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 분석하였다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)의 주요한 기여사항(寄與事項)은, 첫째 사회보장제도(社會保障制度)의 부담귀착분석(負擔歸着分析)에 새로운 연구방법(硏究方法)을 시도하였다는 점, 둘째 재정정책(財政政策)의 하나인 사회보장제도(社會保障制度)의 실질적(實質的) 부담(負擔)의 귀착문제(歸着問題)를 생애주기모형(生涯週期模型)으로 분석하였다는 점, 셋째 부담(負擔)의 귀착(歸着)은 사회보장세(社會保障稅)와 아울러 사회보장급여(社會保障給與)를 고려하여 분석하지 않으면 편향(偏向)(biased) 될 수 있다는 점을 지적한 점, 넷째 분석결과(分析結果) 기존 사회보장제도(社會保障制度)는 생애주기적(生涯週期的) 소득분배(所得分配)의 관점에서 누진적(累進的)(progressive)인 제도이지만 경제적(經濟的) 비효율성(非效率性)(efficiency cost)을 내재하고 있다는 점 등을 밝힌 것이다.

In this paper, a new method for the bridge maintenance is proposed to overcome the limit of the existing methods and to implement the preventive bridge maintenance system. The proposed method can establish the lifetime optimum maintenance strategy of the deteriorating bridges considering the life-cycle performance as well as the life-cycle cost. The lifetime performance of the deteriorating bridges is evaluated by the safety index based on the structural reliability and the condition index detailing the condition state. The life-cycle cost is estimated by considering not only the direct maintenance cost but also the user and failure cost. The genetic algorithm is applied to generate a set of maintenance scenarios which is the multi-objective combinatorial optimization problem related to the life-cycle cost and performance. The study examined the proposed method by establishing a maintenance strategy for the existing bridge and its advantages. The result shows that the proposed method can be effectively applied to deciding the bridge maintenance strategy.

Recently, BIM (Building Information Modeling) technique is being considered as a critical delivery condition for the public projects according to the increase of best practices by practical application of BIM. However, since existing BIM studies are focused on the design and construction phases, those results are not considering the life cycle of a construction project. Therefore, this study suggests an integrated BIM operation process that enables an application of BIM for each phase of a construction project from planning to maintenance phases and develops an integrated BIM system based on the suggested methodologies. This study developed basic BIM functions and its application process by analyzing information systems in each project phase for a bridge construction project. Besides, this study performed case study and survey analysis for construction managers to verify a practical applicability of the developed system. Therefore, it is expected that the integrated BIM system is going to be utilized as a 3D-based integrated information management system considering life cycle of construction projects.

Recently, research outcome is frequently leaked in the process of progressing domestic R&D. Security system such as research security law and manual is implemented to prepare these leakage. However piecemeal solutions, simply technological measures, have a limit. Consequently, this study organizes a integrated research security framework by designing multidimensional security measures based on the R&D life cycle perspective. Concretely, this study constructs various control items predicated on law, moreover reviews the applicability of research security assessment items.

According to the Framework Act on Sustainable Infrastructure Management, which has been enforced since 2020, reservoirs should be managed to minimize life cycle costs caused by aging through preemptive management such as systematic maintenance and performance improvement. For maintenance in consideration of the life cycle, it is essential to derive the end of life due to continuous performance degradation as the common period increases. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop a performance-predicting model for reservoirs. In this study, a reservoir was divided into main complex facilities to develop a model for the maintenance of the life cycle. A model was developed for each facility. For model development, maintenance information data were collected under management by the Rural Community Corporation. The data available for model development were selected by analyzing the collected data. The developed model was used to predict the expected life expectancy of the reservoir in the current maintenance system and the expected life expectancy in the case of no action. By using the developed model, it is expected that it will be possible to support decision making in operation management and maintenance while considering the life cycle of the reservoir.

Recently, block and permeable pavements have been placed in apartment complex. However. it is hard to decide the cycle of maintenance and repair due to lack of performance evaluation criteria for these pavements. This study carried out life cycle cost analysis(LCCA) to present resonable alternatives of the pavements by considering initial construction cost, maintenance and repair cost along with the cycle of repair. According to results of LCCA, the interlocking concrete block pavement is the best alternative when the repair cycle of 20years is assumed, while asphalt concrete pavement is the best alterative when the repair cycle of 10years is assumed. Therefore, the repair cycle is most important factor to select alternative. Also, it is necessary to develop resonable performance evaluation index to quantify the cycle of maintenance and repair in the future.
