수리구조물에 관한 기존 연구들은 대부분 기능성과 안정성 측면에서 본체에 작용하는 유체력에 대한 안정성에 주안점을 두고 있다. 수리구조물 상·하류의 수위차에 기인한 기초지반내의 흐름 및 간극수압 변화는 하천 구조물의 안정성을 연구하는데 매우 중요하다. 해양에서는 파랑하중에 의한 과잉간극수압이 액상화를 발생시켜 해안구조물의 안정에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되며, 이에 관련 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 반면, 하천구조물 주변 지반의 흐름 및 간극수압 뿐 아니라, 액상화에 관한 연구는 아직 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수리구조물 주변의 유동 및 와동 현상 뿐 아니라, 수위차에 따른 지반 내부 유동장과 간극수압에 관한 특성을 분석하기 위해 유체-구조물-지반 비선형 상호작용을 고려할 수 있는 수치수조를 새롭게 제안하였다. 그리고 제안하는 수치수조의 타당성 및 유효성을 검증하기 위해 기존 실험값과 비교·검토를 수행하였고, 그 결과는 거의 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 이 수치수조에 다양한 입사조건(상·하류 수위차)에 적용하여 유체-구조물-지반의 비선형동적상호간섭 해석을 수행하였다. 최종적으로 수치수조에서 측정한 구조물 주변의 유동, 와동, 수위로부터 수리특성을 논의하였다. 게다가 지반내의 흐름과 간극수압을 측정하여 상·하류 수위차가 수리구조물의 안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석할 수 있었다.

When dynamic loads such as mechanical load, wind load, and seismic load, which causing a vibration, acts on the body of the 3-D framework resting on soil foundation, it is required to consider the dynamic behavior of soil-space framework interation system. Thus, this study presents the 3-dimensional soil-interaction system analyzed by finite element method using 4-node plate elements with flexibility, 2-node beam elements, and 8-node brick elements for the purpose of idealizing an actual structure into a geometric shape. The objective of this study is the formulation of the equation for a dynamic motion and the development of the finite element program which can analyze the dynamic behavior of soil-space framework interaction system.

In this study, seismic responses of the offshore wind tower supported by bucket foundation are analyzed in consideration of soil-structure interaction. The program SASSI is used as analyzing tool and an artificial seismic input for soft soil is used as input motion. The H/R ratio of bucket, the stiffness of bucket foundation and the soil stiffness are considered as parameters and its effects are estimated. The responses of structure are obtained at the base and the nacell. As results, the effects of H/R ratio, the stiffness of bucket and the stiffness of site are generally denoted different response tendency at the base and the nacell. However, these whole responses of the base and the nacell are much lager than that of rock site. Therefore, the consideration of this phemomia affect to the response of offshore wind tower with bucket foundation largely.

Geocentrifuge tests are performed to investigate the structure-soil-structure interaction of shallow foundations that have various sizes. The soil specimen is prepared by using the air-pluviation, and the dynamic responses of the foundation are monitored with separation distances between the two foundations and the embedment. During the centrifugal test, the measured ground acceleration shows a tendency to increase with the increase of the input seismic amplitude, and maximum acceleration is measured at the surface due to the ground amplification. As the separation distance between the two foundations decreases, the ratio of the response spectral acceleration (RRS) increases and the period at the peak RRS decreases due to the structure-soil-structure interaction (SSSI). The RRS of the two foundations tends to decrease when the foundations are buried in the ground at the same separation distance.

In this study, an analysis method for the earthquake response of an offshore wind turbine model is developed, considering the effects of the fluid-structure-soil interaction. The turbine is modeled as a tower with a lumped mass at the top of it. The tower is idealized as a tubular cantilever founded on flexible seabed. Substructure and Rayleigh-Ritz methods are used to derive the governing equation of a coupled structure-fluid-soil system incorporating interactions between the tower and sea water and between the foundation and the flexible seabed. The sea water is assumed to be a compressible but non-viscous ideal fluid. The impedance functions of a rigid footing in water-saturated soil strata are obtained from the Thin-Layer Method (TLM) and combined with the superstructure model. The developed method is applied to the earthquake response analysis of an offshore wind turbine model. The method is verified by comparing the results with reference solutions. The effects of several factors, such as the flexibility of the tower, the depth of the sea water, and the stiffness of the soil, are examined and discussed. The relative significance of the fluid-structure interaction over the soil-structure interaction is evaluated and vice versa.

In this study, several Soil-Structure-Interaction (SSI) analyses were performed using the developed FE-BE coupling method and the seismic response behavior of the structure's systems was determined. For the verification of the fundamental solution which is used in this analysis method, a dynamic analysis of the homogeneous ground was performed and it was compared to the results of Estorff et al. In order to verify the seismic response analysis, the results are compared with those of another commercial code. Several kindd of SSI analyses were performed and the seismic response associated with the rile foundation, seismic waves and a consideration of the ground nonlinearity were determined. As a result, it was found that the pile foundations didn't greatly helpful during the seismic event.

This study explores methods for modeling the foundation-seabed interaction needed for the load analysis of an offshore wind energy system. It comprises the comparison study of foundation design load analyses for NREL 5 MW turbine according to various soil-foundation interaction models by conducting the load analysis with GH-Bladed, analysis software for offshore wind energy systems. Furthermore, the results of the aforementioned load analysis were applied to foundation analysis software called L-Pile to conduct a safety review of the foundation cross-section design. Differences in the cross-section of a monopile foundation were observed based on the results of the fixed model, winkler spring and coupled spring models, and the analysis of design load cases, including DLC 1.3, DLC 6.1a, and DLC 6.2a. Consequently, under all design load conditions, the diameter and thickness of the monopile foundation cross-section were found to be 7 m and 80 mm, respectively, using the fixed and coupled spring models; the results of the analysis conducted using the winkler spring model showed that the diameter and thickness of the monopile foundation cross-section were 5 m and 60 mm, respectively. The study found that the soil-foundation interaction modeling method had a significant impact on the load analysis results, which determined the cross-section of a foundation. Based on this study, it is anticipated that designing an offshore wind energy system foundation taking the above impact into account would reduce the possibility of a conservative or unconservative design of the foundation.

In this study, the soil-structure interaction(SSI) effect on the seismic response of LNG storage tanks was investigated according to the type of foundation. For this purpose, a typical of LNG storage tank with a diameter of 71m, which is constructed on a 30m thick clay layer over bedrock was selected, and nonlinearity of the soil was taken into account by the equivalent linearization method. Four different types of foundations including shallow foundation, piled raft foundation, and pile foundations(surface and floating types) were considered. In addition, the effect of soil compaction in group piles on seismic response of the tank was investigated. The KIESSI-3D, which is a SSI analysis package in the frequency domain, was used for the SSI analysis. Stresses in the outer tank, and base shear and overturning moment in the inner tank were calculated. From the comparisons, the following conclusions could be made: (1) Conventional fixed base seismic responses of outer tank and inner tank can be much larger than those of considering the SSI effect; (2) The influence of SSI on the dynamic response of the inner tank and the outer tank depends on the foundation types; and (3) Change in the seismic response of the structure by soil compaction in the piled raft foundation is about 10% and its effect is not negligible in the seismic design of the structure.

The flexibility of base material gives considerable influences on seismic responses of a structure. The effects of relative stiffness between super-structure and base material on dynamic soil-structure interaction are evaluated by parametric studies. Two 5-story buildings are used for the study; one is shearwall structure with relatively higher fundamental frequency and the other is frame structure with relatively lower fundamental frequency. The structures are modeled as beam-sticks coupled with springs and dashpots representing the base material. Dynamic equilibrium equations of the soil-structure interaction system are sloved by mode superposition method using Rosset modal damping values. Soil-structure interaction effect is found to be major concern in seismic analysis of shearwall structure in most cases while it seldom becomes engineering problem in frame-type structure. It is also found that seismic responses at lower elevation of the super-structure are amplified though they decrease at higher elevation as soil-structure interaction effects of the system increase.
