The local earthquake data, observed by Wiechert seismograph in Korea during Feb. 1926-May 1943, was provided and investigated. Using S-P monogram of JMA, mainly Tsuboi's formula and additional intensity data, the earthquake parameters are obtained as much as possible within a reasonable discrepancy. The seismic characteristics as to the epicenter distribution was discussed under the viewpoint of its relation to the adjacent geologic structure. Some statistical results are analyzed comparing with Kyushu region which provide a reasonable interpretation on the seismicity of Korea. By superposing the available information of the individual events, the general trend of stress field was found to be east-west compression, which mostly agree with that of the southwestern Japan.

It is necessary to consider the site amplification for estimating SSI (soil structure interaction) and seismic source with more confidence. The horizontal to vertical (H/V) ratio technique in spectral domain is one of several techniques to estimate empirical site transfer function. The technique, originally proposed by Nakamura (1989), is applied to analyze the surface waves in the microtremor records. However, the application of this technique has been widened to the shear wave energy of strong motions for estimating site amplification. The purpose of this paper is to estimate spectral ratio using observed data at the seismic stations distributed within Southern Korean Peninsula from the Fukuoka earthquake including 11 aftershocks. The results show that each station has the its own characteristics of the specific resonance, high-band, and low-band frequency. The characteristics of the resonance frequency is more important because the quality of the seismic records are dependent on the resonance frequency. The result can be used for the study of site classification and removal of the site amplification effects from observed records can give us more reliable seismic source parameters.

본 연구에서는 최근에 개발된 Unscented Particle Filter (UPF)를 사용한 비선형 동적 구조계의 구조계수 규명기법이 연구되었다. 일반적인 비선형 구조계수 추정 문제의 일반 해는 존재하지 않으나, 그에 대한 대안으로써 선형 근사 기법인 extended Kalman filter (EKF)가 비선형 동적 구조계수의 추정에 주로 사용되어왔다. 그러나, EKF는 구간 선형(piecewise linear) 가정으로 인해 biased estimator이고 비선형성이 상대적으로 높을 때 오차가 큰 추정치를 주는 단점을 가진다. 이를 보완하기 위해서 UPF가 개발되었고, 이 기법은 particle filter의 일종으로써 Unscented Kalman filter (UKF)를 사용하여 importance proposal distribution을 생성한다. 수치실험이 SDOF와 MDOF에 대하여 3가지 경우에 대해서 수행되었다. 비선형 SDOF의 수치 실험으로부터 잡음이 가해진 상태에서 UKF가 EKF에 비해 초기 공분산 행렬의 가정에 대해 정확하고 강인한 추정결과를 보여줌을 보였다 최하층의 column에 비선형 거동이 발생하는 5층 전단 빌딩모형의 수치실험으로부터 UKF가 복잡한 구조물의 구조계수 추정능력이 있음을 보여주었다. 여러 가지 수치실험은 UPF가 EKF보다 비선형 동적 구조계수 추정에 있어서 더 나은 방법임을 보여 주었다.

지진등에 의해 유발된 동 하중에 의한 지반-구조물 계의 응답은 지반-구조물사이의 경계에서의 마찰특성과 미끄러짐에 의해 크게 영향을 받게 된다 본 논문에서는 진동대(Shaking table)를 이용하여 조립토와 건설재료(Steel)의 경계에서 지반으로부터 지중구조물에 전달되는 전단응력 의 전달정도를 파악하기 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 본 실험에서 설정한 미끌어짐속도 범위내에서는 미끄러짐속도 변화에 따른 조립토와 건설재료(Steel)사이의 동마찰계수의 변화가 작다는 사실이 관찰되었다. 그리고 조립토의 평균유효입경의 변화가 동마찰계수에 미치는 영향도 함께 조사되었다. 또한 이 동마찰계수를 같은 조립토에 대한 평면변형률시험을 통해 얻어진 최대내부마찰각으로부터 구한 마찰계수와 비교하여 정량화하였다.

In this study, the seismic analysis of power plant piping system was performed using finite element model. This study was performed by ANSYS 12.1. For qualification of power plant piping system, the response spectrum analysis was performed using the given operating basis earthquake(OBE) and safe shutdown earthquake(SSE) floor response spectrum. The maximum stresses of power plant piping system were 166 MPa under OBE condition and 281 MPa under SSE condition. Thus, it can shown that the structural integrity of tpower plant piping system has a stable structure for seismic load conditions.

펌프는 다르 진동 유발원들과는 달리 일정한 주파수 및 크기를 갖는 진동을 일으키므로 스프링이나 댐퍼와 같은 간단한 방진기기를 이용하여 진동을 제어할 수 있다 현재 국내에서는 대부분의 펌프에 이러한 방진장치를 설치하는 것이 일반화되어있다 그러나 펌프의 용량 및 중량 주변 구조물의 형태 및 크기 등에 따라서 방진기구의 채택이 불필요한 경우도 있으므로 설비 진동기초에 대한 획일적인 설계와 시공개념은 불필요한 인적, 시간적 및 경제적인 낭비를 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 사무용 건무에 사용되는 각종 펌프류에 대하여 가진특성과 구조물의 진동가속도응답을 측정하는 진동실험 및 이론적 해석을 실시하고 본래 계와 수정된 계의 진동을 답과 허용진동수준을 비교.분석함으로서 방진장치의 설치가 불필요한 펌프용량을 제시하였다.

Lineaments along the Yangsan and Ulsan fault systems were extracted through aerial photograph interpretation in the southeastern part of Korean Peninsula. Lineaments can be classified into five ranks on the basis of certainty and divided by curvatures. Mean strikes of all lineament by aerial photograph interpretation is dominant in NS ~N05$^{\circ}$E direction along the Ulsan fault system and Nl5-20$^{\circ}$E direction along the Yangsan fault system respectively. The curvature of lineament around Yangsan Fault is different from around the Ulsan Fault system, the former shows that straight lineament is dominant but the latter curved lineaments are dominant. It indicates that the Quaternary faults around Ulsan Fault would be appeared as reverse fault.

Recently, as earthquake is more frequently taking place around the world due to diastrophism, the importance of diastrophism and disaster detection is becoming more important. In this study, to analyze the interpretation of seismic displacement by the Japanese earthquake in March, 2011, and monitor the diastrophism of plates in Japan and surrounding Eurasia, Pacific, and Philippines before and after the earthquake, the observational data from IGS observatories in Japan and Asian regions were processed by precise point positioning. The displacement was biggest in MIZU, which was the closest to the epicenter, and the earthquake-affected region was in inverse proportion to the distance from the epicenter. The result of calculating the diastrophism speed before and after the earthquake, based on precise point positioning of IGS observatories located in the 4 plates around Japan, showed that the displacement speed changed and different plates showed different results. The comparison with the plate fate model allowed to analyze the change in diastrophism by earthquake, and to understand the characteristics of the displacement of the plates around Japan. Later, a continuous diastrophism monitoring based on GPS is needed for earthquake prediction and diastrophism research, and the data gained by continuous GPS-based monitoring of diastrophism will be fully used as basic data for relevant research and earthquake disaster management.

Seismic design codes developed taking into account the strong earthquakes may result in unnecessary economical loss in the low seismic area, and the importance of the performance based design considering the soil-structure interaction is recognized for the reasonable seismic design. In this study. elastic and inelastic seismic response analyses of a single degree of freedom system on the soft soil layer were performed considering the nonlinearity of the soil for the 1 weak earthquakes scaled to the nominal peak accelerations of 0.07g and 0.11g. The seismic response analyses were performed in one step applying the earthquake motions to the bedrock, utilizing a pseudo 3-D dynamic analysis software of the soil-structure system. The study results indicated that seismic response spectra of a system assuming the rigid base or the linear soil layer does not represent the true behavior of a structure-soil system, and it is necessary to take into account the nonlinear soil-structure interaction effects and to perform the performance based seismic design for the various soil layers, having different characteristics, rather than to follow the routine design procedures specified in the design codes for the reasonable seismic design. The nonlinearity of the soft soil excited with the weak seismic motions also affected significantly on the elastic and inelastic seismic response spectra of a system due to the nonlinear soil amplification of the earthquake motions, and it was pronounced especially for the elastic response spectra.
