The purpose ol this study Is to suggest a proper analysis model that can evaluate seismic stability for local rock foundation of nuclear power plant. Sliding Analysis, Pseudo-static Analysis and Dynamic Analysis methods are used for analysing NPP rock foundation with the conditions like acting directions of input earthquake, boundary conditions, width and depth of analysing model, and modeling methods of weakness fault zones. As the results of study, Pseudo-static Analysis for lateral roller and dynamic analysis for transfer boundary condition showed good results, and analysing ranges of width and depth were 5 times of structure width and over 2 times ol structure depth.

The paper presents a reliability-based method that can capture the impact of uncertainty of seismic loadings. The proposed method incorporates probabilistic concepts into the classical limit equilibrium and the Newmark-type deformation techniques. The risk of damage is then computed by Monte Carlo simulation. Random process and RMS hazard method are introduced to produce seismic motions and also to use them in the seismic slope analyses. The geotechnical variability and sampling errors are also considered. The results of reliability analyses indicate that in a highly seismically active region, characterization of earthquake hazard is the more critical factor, and characterization of soil properties has a relatively small effect on the computed risk of slope failure and excessive slope deformations. The results can be applicable to both circular and non-circular slip surface failure modes.

The probabilistic seismic risk in Seoul Metropolitan Area $(atitude도 37.0^{circ}~37.8^{circ} N, longitude 126.5^{circ}~127.5^{circ} E)$ based on all Korean earthquake data of MM Intensity equal to or greater than V is evaluated by point source method. The seismic risk estimated from all data turned out to be lower than that from the data since the Choseon Dynasty during which seismic data appear to be rather complete. The damaging earthquake of peak horizontal ground acceleration greater than 0.1g turns out to occur with 90% probability of being exceeded in 200 years and 500 years when the data since Choseon Dynasty and all data are used, respectively.

A seismic hazard map based on spatial analysis of various sources of geologic seismic information was developed and assessed for regional seismic vulnerability in South Korea. The indicators for assessment were selected in consideration of the geological characteristics affecting the seismic damage. Probabilistic seismic hazard and fault information were used to be associated with the seismic activity hazard and bedrock depth related with the seismic damage hazard was also included. Each indicator was constructed of spatial information using GIS and geostatistical techniques such as ordinary kriging, line density mapping and simple kriging with local varying means. Three spatial information constructed were integrated by assigning weights according to the research purpose, data resolution and accuracy. In the case of probabilistic seismic hazard and fault line density, since the data uncertainty was relatively high, only the trend was intended to be reflected firstly. Finally, the seismic activity hazard was calculated and then integrated with the bedrock depth distribution as seismic damage hazard indicator. As a result, a seismic hazard map was proposed based on the analysis of three spatial data and the southeast and northwest regions of South Korea were assessed as having high seismic hazard. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for constructing seismic risk management systems to minimize earthquake disasters.

The strain release associated with historical and instrumental earthquoke data are analyzed. In addition, the relationship between engineering intensity and cumulative frequency of earthquake occurrence is investigated. Based on the study, a seimic zoning map of the Korean peninsula is constructed. For each seismic zone, a peak ground acceleration value is determined for the aseismic designs of two types of structures. First type is general structures like buildings and the second type is special structures like nuclear power plants.

지금 지구상에서 일어나고 있는 화산 활동이나 지진 발생은 단순한 천재지변이 아니라 살아있는 지구의 숨소리이며 기지개라고 할 수 있다. 만약 그러한 활동이 없다면 우리의 지구는 수성이나 화성처럼 생명이 살 수 없는 행성이 되었을 것이다.

자연재해 중 시설 파괴 규모나 인위적 경제적 피해정도에 있어서 지진은 직접적인 피해가 엄청난 재난이다. 특히 현대사회의 산업화로 도시는 인구가 집중되고 시설물이 대형화되면서 그 기능이 복잡다양해지고 있어 지진이 발생할 경우 도시의 사회 경제활동이 장기간 마비되는 사태가 발생하기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 건축물 구조해석에 의한 내진평가체계를 수립하고 내진평가에 필요한 다양한 자료들을 GIS DB화하여 건물의 내진성능평가를 수행함으로써, 개별 건물의 지진위험등급 산정과 GIS기반으로 지진위험도를 체계적으로 평가할 수 있는 정보체계를 구축하여 지진발생시 피해규모 및 범위를 추정할 수 있는 정보체계구축의 가능성을 제시하였다.

The different result and response of the earthquakes, occurred consecutively at China and Japan in May and June. respectively, is suggestive of the importance of preparedness against earthquake disaster. We learned lesson, although indirect, that the earthquake early warning. earthquake-resistant design, and people's concepts on earthquake can greatly reduce the earthquake hazards. The more preparedness we have in present, the less hazards we will experience for future.

우리나라도 삼국시대 이래 구조물 피해를 수반한 강진이 40회 이상 발생하였고 70년대 이후 최근에도 홍성ㆍ백령도ㆍ영월 등에서 지진이 발생하여 이에 대한 대책과 내진설계 등이 절실하게 되었다. 지난 6월12일 서울대 내에 발족한 지진공학연구센터는 29명의 전문교수로 구성되어 있으며 과학재단으로부터 우수연구센터로 지정받아 본격적인 연구활동을 하고 있다.
