Dynamic behaviors of a bridge system with several simple spans are evaluated to examine the effects of nonlinear abutment motions upon the seismic responses of the bridge. The idealized mechanical model for the whole bridge system is developed by adopting the multi-degree-of-freedom system, which can consider various influential components. To compare the results, both linear and nonlinear abutment-backfill models are prepared. The linear system has the constant abutment stiffness, and the nonlinear system has the nonlinear stiffness considering the abutment stiffness degradation due to the abutment-soil interaction. From simulation results, the nonlinear abutment motion is found to have an important influence upon the global bridge motions. Maximum relative distances between adjacent vibration units are found to be larger than those found from the linear system. In particular, maximum relative distances at the location with the highest possibility of unseating failure are increased up to about 30% in the nonlinear system. The effects of nonlinear behavior of an abutment on the bridge seismic behaviors are also increased as the number of span increase. Therefore, it can be concluded that the abutment-soil interaction should be considered in the seismic analysis of the bridge system.

관망 내에서 흐름의 연속 방정식과 운동량 방정식을 상 미분으로 전개하여 해석한 특성선 방법은 주로 가압 관망체계(Pressurized Pipeline System)에서의 부정류 해석(Unsteady Analysis)에 사용 된다. 그러나 이특성선 방법은 천이류 해석을 위한 관망 재구성 과정에서 Courant수 조건의 만족을 위한 관의 재배열에 천문학적인 계산용량과 시간이 필요하다는 단점이 있다. 이는 현장 적용 시 압력파 전파속도의 불확실성과 연계되어 상당한 장해요소가 되고 있다. 이에 대안적인 방법으로서 임펄스응답법이 개발되었다. 이는 경계지점에서 복소수 유량에 대한 복소수 수두의 비율로써 정의된 관망에서의 수리임피던스를 역퓨리에 변환에 적용하여, 주파수 영역의 수치를 시간 영역으로 변환하여 응답함수를 산출한 후, 산출된 응답함수와 구해진 경계지점에서의 유량과의 적분을 통하여 임의의 지점에서의 수두 및 유량을 계산하는 방법이다. 임펄스 응답법은 관 부속물관의 특성을 기술하는 수학적 표현의 난해함으로 인해 지금까지는 단일관에 대한 연구에만 국한되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 임펄스응답법을 수리구조물이 부착된 관망에 적용하여 다양한 조건에서 천이류 분석을 시행하였다. 즉, 에어챔버 및 서지탱크와 같은 수리구조물을 각각에 대한 수리임피던스를 구하고, 가지관 및 통합 관성항으로 취급하여 수리구조물을 처리하였다. 그리고 이러한 결과를 특성선방법과 비교하여 그 적절성을 검증하였는데, 특성선 방법에 의한 모의 결과와 비교하였을 때, 일치하는 결과를 나타내었다. 임펄스응답법에 의한 모의 결과에서 감쇄효과를 과대평가하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 이는 임펄스 응답법의 가정에 기인한 것으로써 난류 상태의 흐름에서 상당한 불일치를 가져올 수 있으나, 수리 구조물에 의한 수격압이 감쇄되는 과정에서 대부분 흐름이 층류 상태로 전환된다고 가정 할 때는 상당한 적용성이 있다. 본 연구는 수리구조물이 부착된 관망의 해석함에 있어서 임펄스응답법의 적용이 가능함을 보였고, 이는 보다 복잡한 관망에서의 천이류 해석이 가능함을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among leisure constraints, athletic life satisfaction and self-control of student athletes at physical education high school. By using convenience sampling method of non-provability sampling, a total 217 students athletes from D and G city were selected. Of 217 copies of the questionnaire gathered, 35 were discarded owing to having excessive missing values. Thus by analysing a total of 182 surveys with structural equation modeling through SPSS 20.0 statistics program, this study found the followings. First, leisure constraints have a negative influence on athletic life satisfaction. Second, leisure constraints have a negative influence on self-control. Third, athletic life satisfaction has a positive influence on self-control.

This study was focused on whether secondary science teachers have consistent, integrative scheme on the definition of atmospheric pressure and phenomena caused by air pressure. We had made questionnaire and let 94 science teachers answer. We sorted the responses according to their major, school and compared them with the description in textbooks. The result can be summarized into three findings. First of all, teachers whose major is chemistry have strong tendency to understand that atmospheric pressure is caused by molecular motion though it, in textbooks, is defined as the pressure by weight of air mass. The half of respondents believed that decreasing of atmospheric pressure in high altitude is due to molecular motions, while most textbook says decrease in the weight of air mass. Secondly, many science textbooks show that air mass expands, rises, becomes less dense and the pressure of atmosphere becomes low when it receives heat. So, most of respondents explained low pressure is formed by lower density. Thirdly, they answered that they just teach the phenomena of air pressure by using the textbooks which mainly deal with the present state rather than a principle. In conclusion, the science textbooks should present the exact description and consolidated structures of those concepts to prevent students from having misconceptions on air pressure. In addition, training program for science teachers would be necessary to reconsider and explore the natural phenomena in various viewpoints.

The near fault ground motion (NFGM) is characterized by a single long period velocity pulse with large magnitude. NFGMs have been observed in recent strong earthquakes, Northridge (1994), Japan Kobe (1995), Turkey Izmit (1999), China Sichuan (2008), Haiti (2010) etc. These strong earthquakes have caused considerable damage to infrastructures because the epicenter was close to the urban area, called as NFGM. Extensive research for the far field ground motion (FFGM) have been carried out in strong seismic region, but limited research have been done for NFGM in low or moderate seismic regions because of very few records. The purpose of this research is to investigate and analyze the seismic response of reinforced concrete bridge piers subjected to near-fault ground motions. The seismic performance of six RC bridge piers depending on three confinement steel ratios and three superstructure mass was investigated on the shaking table. From these experimental results, it was confirmed that the reduction of seismic performance was observed for test specimens with lower confinement steel ratio or more deck weight. The displacement ductility of RC bridge piers in terms of the stiffness degradation is proposed based on test results the shaking table.

Seismic fragility analysis (SFA) has been utilized to evaluate the actual seismic capacity of structure and equipment in nuclear power plants (NPP). This paper briefly introduces an improved method for evaluating seismic fragilities of components of NPP's in Korea. Engineering characteristics of small magnitude earthquake spectra recorded in the Korean peninsula during the last several years are also discussed in this paper. Some significant differences between the Newmark's spectra and the recorded spectra as a site-dependent spectra are assessed. Several comparative SFA's have been performed to evaluate the effects of the recorded earthquakes on the seismic capacities of Korean NPP structures. The results showed that SFA using the Newmark's spectra might over estimate the actual seismic capacities of Korean facilities.

The aim of this paper is to examine satisfaction of residents and preference on the outdoor space's design by multi-family housing complex scale. So we divide outdoor space into space for green land, space for physical training and play, space for walking and space for rest and landscape facilities. The major findings of this analysis are follows : Multi-family housing complex scale is the bigger, it is recognized by same ratio on specific outdoor space in housing complex that are space for green land, space for physical training and play, space for rest and landscape facilities. And space for physical training and play is found commonly into the poorest space in housing complex. Evaluation for resident's perception on outdoor space by multifamily housing complex scale shows that housing complex scale is the bigger, resident's satisfaction is the lower. That means that housing complex of large scale can't satisfy the diverse resident's demand.
