Accurate estimation of the wave-induced pore water pressure in the seabed is key factor in studying the stability of the seabed in the vicinity of coastal structure. Most of the existing numerical models for wave structure seabed interaction have been linked through applying hybrid numerical technique which is analysis method separating the wave field and seabed regime. Therefore, it is necessary to develope a numerical model f3r simulating accurately wave$\cdot$structure$\cdot$ seabed interaction under wave loadings by the single domain approach for wave field and seabed regime together. In this study, direct numerical simulation is newly proposed. In this model, modeled fluid drag has been used to detect the hydraulic properties according to the varied geometrical shape inside the porous media by considering the turbulence resistance as well as laminar resistance. Contrary to hybrid numerical technique, direct numerical simulation avoids the explicit formulation of the boundary conditions at the fluid/porous media interface. A good agreement has been obtained by the comparison between existed experimental results by hydraulic model test and direct numerical simulation results far wave $\cdot$structure$\cdot$seabed interaction. Therefore, the newly proposed numerical model is a powerful tool for estimating the nonlinear dynamic responses among a structure, its seabed foundation and water waves.

동적무한요소를 이용한 지반-구조물 상호작용에 대하여 연구하였다. 동적무한요소는 무한원방향으로 전파되어 나가는 여러종류의 지진파 성분을 동시에 모형화 할 수 있도록 개발된 축대칭요소로서, 구조물에서 멀리 떨어진 지반영역(외부영역)을 모형화 하는데 사용되었다. 반면, 구조물에 가까운 지반영역(내부영역)은 재래의 축대칭요소를 사용하여 모형화 하였다. 본 해석방법의 검증은 적충된 반무한 지반위에 놓여진 원형강판의 임피던스함수를 구하여, 이를 이론적 결과와 비교하는 방법으로 수행되었다. 또한, 지반에 일부가 묻힌 원통형구조물에 대하여 수행된 강제진동시험 결과와 실제 지진발생시 구조물의 거동기록을 같은 입력조건에 대하여 본 해법으로 구한 결과와도 비교하였다. 해석결과로 부터 본 해석방법이 구조물의 거동을 타당히 산정하여 줌을 알 수 있었다.

Longitudinal strain is an important component of seismic design for buried pipelines. A design procedure which determines the wavelength from site natural period and shear wave velocity of the soil layer and closed-form solutions of pipelines under a harmonic motion is typically used in design. However, the applicability of the procedure has not yet been thoroughly investigated. In this paper, displacement-time histories extracted from 1D site response analyses are used in 3D shell-spring model to accurately predict the response of pipelines. The results are closely compared to those from the design procedure. The area of interest is East Siberia. Performing a site response analysis to determine site specific displacement time history is highlighted. The site natural period may be used to predict the predominant period of the acceleration time history, but cannot be used to estimate the predominant period of the displacement time history. If an accurate estimate of the predominant period of the displacement time history is provided, it is demonstrated that the design equation can be successfully used to predict the response of pipelines.

Analytical and experimental studies show that the dynamic behavior of liquid storage tanks is significantly influenced by the fluid-structure interaction (FSI). The effects of FSI must be rigorously considered for accurate earthquake analysis and seismic design of liquid storage tanks. In this study, a dynamic analysis of a rectangular liquid storage tank subjected to bi-directional earthquake ground motions is performed and its dynamic characteristics are examined, with the effects of FSI rigorously considered. Hydrodynamic pressure is evaluated using the finite-element approach with acoustic elements and applied to the structure. The responses of the rectangular tank subjected to bi-directional earthquake ground motions are thus obtained. It can be observed that the incident angle of bi-directional horizontal ground motions has significant effects on the dynamic responses of the considered system. Therefore, the characteristics of the system must be considered in its seismic design and performance evaluation.

In order to evaluate the earthquake damage level of small and medium - sized bridges without earthquake monitoring system, we proposed an algorithm for estimating the seismic force at the target bridge location using the ground acceleration data from the earthquake observatories near the structure. In general, response spectrum analysis, which is the most widely used dynamic analysis method to design and evaluate the structural system numerically is required a response spectrum to determine the dynamic loading. In this study, selection methods of the three closest observatories from the target structure and estimation method of ground response spectrum at arbitrary locations are developed. The proposed method can consider the distance and phase between the target bridge and the seismic station and from the relationship between the acceleration amplitudes and the location of the selected seismic station, the earthquake loading of the target bridge can be determined. The proposed algorithm is estimated to be more conservative than the response spectrum evaluated by actual earthquake data.

In this study, according to drainage condition (undrained and drained) in ground, the settlement and horizontal displacement of caisson quay wall and apron in Yeongilman port due to excess pore water pressure in ground induced by the magnitude 5.4 earthquake in Pohang on November 15, 2017. In general, seismic response analysis was carried out under undrained drainage condition, but in this study, drain drainage analysis was conducted to estimate displacement during earthquake as well as an additional displacement due to dissipation of excess pore water pressure after earthquake. The result of after earthquake can not be known under undrained drainage condition. Results cleary showed that the behavior of structure and ground was dependent on drainage condition in ground. Especially, based on the drained drainage condition, the additional displacement was clearly detected due to dissipation of excess pore water pressure after earthquake. Which indicates that both results are different to drainage condition in ground, and therefore, drainage condition analysis is necessary to accurately estimate the behavior of ground and structure in seismic response analysis.

Usually the seismic stability analysis of slope uses the pseudostatic analysis considering the inertial force by the earthquake as a static load. Geostructures such as slope include the uncertainty of soil properties. Therefore, it is necessary to consider probabilistic method for stability analysis. In this study, the probabilistic stability analysis of slope considering the uncertainty of soil properties has been performed. The fragility curve that represents the probability of exceeding limit state of slope as a function of the ground motion has been established. The Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) has been implemented to perform the probabilistic stability analysis of slope with pseudostatic analysis. A procedure to develop the fragility curve by the pseudostatic horizontal acceleration has been presented by calculating the probability of failure based on the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based response surface technique that reduces the required time of MCS. The results showed that the proposed method can get the fragility curve that is similar to the direct MCS-based fragility curve, and can be efficiently used to reduce the analysis time.

등가선형이론을 이용한 지진응답해석은 사용의 간편함 때문에 많이 사용되고 있지만, 대부분의 입력 정수들이 경험식에 의해 얻어지고 있어 심각한 오류를 발생시킬 여지가 있다. 입력정수를 실험의 결과로부터 얻을수 없다면 합리적인 방법을 통하여 입력 정수를 결정하여야 하며, 또한 입력 정수들이 해석결과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 입력정수가 해석결과에 미치는 영향에 대한 민감도 분석을 실시하였다. 해석은 등가선형화 이론에 기초하여 개발한 액상화 해석프로그램(KLIq)을 이용하였다. 검토된 사항은 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비의 영향, 변형률의 영향, 반복계산에서 유효변형률 결정방법, 최대전자탄성계수의 영향, 변형률 의존곡선(자반의 종류)의 영향, 입력 지질파의 영향 등이다.
