에너지 소산장치가 설치된 건무의 비선형 시간이력해석은 복잡하고 많은 시간이 소모된다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 정적해석법인 능력 스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 주어긴 거동 한계를 만족할 수 있는 감쇠기의 양을 산정하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 먼저 능력스펙트럼법을 이용하여 건물의 비선형 정적응답을 구하고 건물의 응답과 목표변위의 차이를 이용하여 유효감쇠비를 구하고 이러한 유효 감쇠비를 이용하여 필용한 점성 감쇠기의 양을 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 단자 유도계에서 건물의 주기, 요구되는 탄성강도에 대한 항복강도의 비, 항복 후 강성비 등을 변수로 하여 연구를 수행하였다. 제안된 방법에 따라 설계된 점성 감쇠기를 설치한 예제 구조물의 시간이력 해석에 의한 최대 응답은 설계의 초기단계에서 사용한 목표변위와 잘 일치하였다.

동적하중하에서 강섬유보강 콘크리트(SFRC)는 유연도 및 균열억제에서 우수한 재료로서 최근에 각종 구조물에 널리 사용되었으며, 특히 내진설계를 위한 강섬유보강 콘크리트 의 재료적 감쇠에 관한 규명이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 연구는 강섬유보강 콘크리트(SFRC)보의 재료적 감쇠효과증진을 실험적 및 수치해석적 방법으로 규명하는 데에 목적이 있으며, 일반적으로 강섬유 보강콘크리트(SFRC)보의 감쇠거동은 인장철근비, 강섬유의 혼입량과 형태, 콘크리트의 강도 그리고 응력의 크기에 좌우된다. 강섬유보강 콘크리트보의 감쇠비는 보의 균열상태 변화에따른 동적실험결과로부터 얻을 수 있으며, 일반적으로 강섬유보강 콘크리트는 증가된 에너지감쇠능력으로 인장철근이 소성전 상태에서 철근 콘크리트보의 경우보다 향상된 감쇠거동을 갖고 있는 것으로 판명되었다. 이들 결과의수치해석적인 입증을 위하여 curvature(곡률)와 감쇠값사이의 관계를 기초로 유한요소프로그램 (TICAL)을 개발하였으며, 결론적으로 0.44%인장철근비을 갖고 있는 강섬유보강 콘크리트의 감쇠비는 하중상태에 따라 철근 콘크리트보의 경우보다 약 5%에서 35%정도 향상된 감쇠비를 갖고 있는 것으로 조사되었다.

A cable element happens to vibration easily rather than other elements because a cable element has few rotational stiffness. Dynamic motion of stay cable is distinguished from vibration by wind and/or rain and excitation by support movement. Mostly a stay cable is vibrated by wind and/or rain except that when natural periods coincide between stiffening girder and stay cable. It happens to deterioration of serviceability and durability by vortex shedding, rainy-wind induced vibration, and galloping. Additional damping generated by installation of cable damper is well known good scheme against above phenomena. Researchers have lack of effort to develop the recommendations even if cable stayed bridges are designed and constructed in Korea. Therefore, development of the domestic recommendations should be achieved as soon as possible. This study suggests the consistent and systematic recommendations on vibration controlling design of stay cable by installation of damper. It gives readers two important methodologies that one evaluates required damping ratio, the other determines installing point considering efficiency.

A procedure for figuring out proper amount of additional viscous damping required to keep the inelastic deformation of a plan-wise asymmetric structure within a given target performance point was developed. To this end the behavior of an asymmetric nonlinear structure after yielding is investigated. Then a formula for the required amount of equivalent damping was derived based on the ductility demand of the structure. The procedure was applied to a five-story asymmetric structure subjected to an earthquake load. According to the comparison with the results from the dynamic time-history analysis, the structure with viscous dampers installed in accordance with the proposed procedure showed satisfactory seismic performance in both the stiff and the flexible edges.

In the study, the effects of damping devices on damping ratio increase and wind-load reduction were investigated based on the computational platform, which is one of the parametric modeling methods. The computational platform helps the designers or engineers to evaluate the efficacy of the numerous alternative structural systems for irregular Super-Tall building, which is crucial in determining the capacity and the number of the supplemental damping devices for adding the required damping ratios to the building. The inherent damping ratio was estimated based on the related domestic and foreign researches conducted by using real wind-load records. Two types of damping devices were considered: One is inter-story installation type passive control devices and the other is mass type active control devices. The supplemental damping ratio due to the damping devices was calculated by means of equivalent static analysis using an equation suggested by FEMA. The optimal design of the damping devices was conducted by using the computational platform. The structural element quantity reduction effect resulting from the installation of the damping devices could be simply assessed by proposing a wind-load reduction factor, and the effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by a numerical example of a 455m high-rise building. The comparison between roof displacement and the story shear forces by the nonlinear time history analysis and the proposed method indicated that the proposed method could simply but approximately estimate the effects of the supplemental damping devices on the roof displacement and the member force reduction.

Unbond brace hysteretic dampers are generally used to prevent or decrease structural damage in building structures subjected to strong earthquake by its energy dissipating hysteretic behavior. In the study, a straightforward design procedure for unbond brace hysteretic dampers was developed. The required amount of equivalent damping to satisfy given performance acceptance criteria was obtained conveniently based on the capacity spectrum method without carrying out time-consuming nonlinear dynamic time history analysis. Then the size of the unbond braces is determined from the required equivalent damping. Parametric study has been performed for the design variables such as natural period, yield strength, the stiffness after the first yield stress of the unbond brace. The procedure was applied to 5-story and 10-story steel frames for verification of the proposed method. According to the earthquake time history analysis results, the maximum displacement of the model structure with unbond braces supplied in accordance with the proposed method corresponds well with the given target displacement.

구조물 지진해석을 위한 구조물 -지반 상호작용 해석에서도 비선형 지반 특성을 고려한 비선형해석이 요구되고 있어 구조물 비선형 지진 해석을 위해 기초 지반에 대한 수평방향 비선형 해석을 수행하였다. 기초지반은 UBC 분류에서 규정한 보통지반인 Sn 지반과 연약지반인 SE 지반을 고려하였고, 지반의 비선형 특성은 Ramberg-Osgood 모델을 이용하였다. 비선형 지반이 기초지반 수평 및 회전 동적 강성 및 감쇠비에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 얕은 기초와 묻힌기초에 대해 기초 크기, 지반깊이 및 말뚝유무에 따른 동적 강성 및 감쇠비 변화를 조사하였는데, 지반의 비선형 특성이 기초지반의 선형 수평 및 회전 강성과 감쇠비를 크게 감소 또는 증가시키는 것으로 나타났으며, 기초크기, 지반깊이 및 말뚝유무의 영향도 큰 것으로 나타나 구조물 지진해석시 기초크기, 지반깊이 및 말뚝유무와 함께 지반의 비선형성도 고려하는 것이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

This paper presents a design procedure for viscoelastic dampers to be installed in a full-scale steel structure and observes their vibration control effect, based on the excitation method and the dynamic characteristics of the structure investigated in the companion paper, Additional damping ratios required to reduce the maximum displacement to a given level were obtained by convex model. The size of dampers was determined by observing the change in modal damping ratio due to the change in damper stiffness using the modal strain energy method, The effect of the supporting braces was also considered in the determination of the modal properties. Two viscoelastic dampers were installed at the first and second inter-stories, respectively and their response reduction is verified.

The purpose of this paper is to present a design procedure of a friction damper for controlling elastic and inelastic responses of building structures under earthquake excitation. The equivalent damping and period increased by the friction damper are estimated using ATC-40 and ATC-55 procedures which provide equivalent linear system for bilinear one, and then a design formula to achieve target performance response level by the friction damper is presented. It is identified that there exists error between the responses obtained by this formula and by performing nonlinear analysis and the features of the error vary according to the hardening ratio, yield strength ratio, and structural period. Equations for compensating the error are proposed based on the least square method, and the results from numerical analysis indicate that the error is significantly reduced. The proposed formula can be used without much error for designing a friction damper for retrofitting a structure showing elastic or inelastic behavior.

Resistivity data should be edited before the inversion because resistivity data are contaminated by a lot of noise. Generally, outlier or data violating pants-leg effect in dipole-dipole array were used to be rejected in the apparent resistivity pseudo-section. For more precise data editing, normalized voltage curves are used. In this study, we analyzed the behavior of normalized voltage curves for pole-pole, pole-dipole and dipole-dipole arrays in the presence of threedimensional inhomogeneities, and finally re-examined the validity of normalized voltage curves in the editing process of resistivity data.
