This paper presents the result of an international cooperative research on the post-correlation analysis of forced vibration tests and the prediction of earthquake responses of a large-scale seismic test structure. The dynamic analysis is carried out using the axisymmetric finite element method incorporating in finite elements for the for field soil region. Through the post-correlation analysis, the properties of the soil layers are revised so that the best correlation in the responses may be obtained compared with the measured force vibration test data. Utilizing the revised soil properties as the initial linear values, the seismic responses are predicted for an earthquake using the equivalent linearlization technique. It has been found that the predicted responses by the equivalent nonlinear procedure are in excellent agreement with the observed responses, while those using the linear properties are fairly off from the measured results.

In recent decades, unpredictable earthquakes around the world have caused massive damage. The incidence of earthquakes in Korea that are larger than M5.0 has increased the social demand for earthquake policies. As the seismic performance of buildings has been proven to be the most effective damage mitigation responsibility from past earthquake damage cases, the US and Japan are implementing a seismic retrofitting support system. In Korea, this is being implemented through tax benefits, but it is being neglected by the owners of private buildings. As a solution to this problem, this paper reviews, compares, and analyzes the domestic and overseas seismic retrofitting support systems, and suggests ways to improve the policy and support system for revitalizing the seismic retrofitting of private buildings based on the results.

This paper summarizes an experimental and analytical study on the application of viscoelastic dampers as energy dissipation devices in structural applications. It can be concluded the viscoelastic dampers are effective in reducing excessive vibrations of structures under strong earthquake ground motions. It is also found that the modal strain energy method can be used to reliably predict the equivalent structural damping, and the seismic response of a viscoelastically damped structure can be accurately estimated by conventional modal analysis techniques. Based on the above studies, a design procedure for viscoelastically damped structures is presented. This design procedure fits naturally into the conventional structural design flow chart by including damping ratio as an additional design parameter.

토사재해는 토사로 인해 발생하는 재해로 정의되며, 일반적으로 우기(rainy season)에 주로 발생한다. 또한, 강우로 인해 발생하는 토양침식(soil erosion)과 강우 및 지진에 의해 나타나는 산사태로 인한 토석류(debris flow)가 토사재해의 주요 원인으로 꼽힌다. 이러한 재해로 인하여 하천 및 호소의 수질 저하, 토양유실에 따른 농경지 감소 등 여러 문제가 발생하고 있다. 특히, 댐으로 유입되는 토사는 사수역(dead storage)을 증가시키고, 발전용 댐의 경우 토사재해가 발전설비 마모 등을 일으킴에 따라 발전효율을 감소시키기도 한다. 더욱이, 기후변화로 인하여 강우량 및 강우강도가 증가하고, 최근 한반도에서는 지진의 강도와 빈도 또한 증가함에 따라 토사재해의 잠재적 위험성을 증대시키고 있다. 따라서 댐 유역에서의 토사 유입에 관한 정량적 예측을 포함한 종합적인 댐 토사 관리기술 및 대책이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 수질 악화로 인해 발전이 중단된 도암댐을 대상으로 댐으로의 토사 유입량을 분석하고자 토양침식과 토석류의 정량적 예측이 가능하고, 각각의 물리적 과정을 고려하는 물리기반 모형을 활용하였다. 토사재해의 주요 원인인 강우와 지진에 대해 미래에 발생 가능한 시나리오를 작성하고, 시나리오별 토사 유입량과 유입 비율을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 유역 내 토사재해로 인한 피해 예방기술 및 댐 유지관리와 운영을 위한 기초 자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

A Seismic analysis procedure of bi-directional brideg motions is developed by using mechanical bridge model. A three-dimensional mechanical model can consider major phenomena under bi-directional seismic excitations, such as nonlinear pier motion under biaxial bending, pounding and bearing damage due to the rotaion of the superstructure, etc. The analyses utilizing the uni-directional and the bi-directional bridge model for the 3-span simply supported bridge are then performed. The seismic responses in two cases are examined and compared by investigating the relative displacements of each superstructure to both ground and adjacent superstructures and the restoring forces of RC pier. The analysis using either the uni-directional model or bi-directional model is acceptable for estimating the displacement responses of a bridge, but the bi-directional analysis is found to give more conservative results for resisting forces of RC piers. To make general conclusions, therefore, the analysis using the bi-directional bridge model should be performed in evaluating the seismic safety of bridges.

본 연구에서는 리브로 보강된 내진 철골 모멘트 접합부의 응력전달 메커니즘을 검토하였다. 리브보강 접합부의 응력전달 메커니즘은 고전 휨이론에 의한 예측과 전혀 다르다. 일반적으로 구조 기술자가 리브를 사용할 경우 단면이차모멘트의 증가에 따른 휨응력의 감소효과를 기대하는 것이 보통이다. 그러나 리브는 구조기술자들이 통상 가정하는 휨응력 전달요소라기 보다는 리브 구배 방향의 스트럿 요소로 기능하여 휨응력 외에도 전달응력을 전달한다. 리브를 스트럿 요소로 파악할 때 응력전달 메커니즘을 올바로 파악할 수 있으며 이를 기초로 합리적 설계법의 정립이 가능하다.

The AASHTO seismic base isolation design approach has been reviewed and modified to fit the nonlinear static analysis procedure for reinforced concrete structures in a simpler way. Such an adaptation may be possible for the fact that the reinforced concrete under development of damage due to earthquake loading keeps softening to result in period shifting toward longer side. The validity of the proposed approach was verified by applying it to the examples presented in the current state-of-the-practice approach.

기업 생존을 위한 사업계승계획(BCP; Business Continuity Plan)이 주목받고 있으며, 일본의 인쇄업계에서도 본격적으로 BCP를 염두에 두고 조직을 정비하는 기업들이 속속 생겨나고 있다. 사업계승계획에는 여러 방면에 걸쳐 다양한 계획이 있을 수 있지만, 일본 인쇄사들은 지난 2011년 동일본대지진의 경험에서 지진, 쓰나미 등 자연재해를 대비하는 것에 높은 비중을 두고 있다. BCP의 개념과 폭넓은 범위에 걸쳐 사용되고 있는 위기관리 방법에 대해 설명한다. 무엇보다도 인쇄사의 '생명선'이라고 할 수 있는 고객의 데이터를 지키기 위해 원격지에 백업설비를 구축하는가 하면, 자사의 재해대책으로 원본상품을 창조하는 비즈니스를 하는 기업도 생겨났다. 이러한 상황에서 지자체와 재해협약을 맺는 등, 각 인쇄사들은 예측이 불가능한 시대에 효과적으로 위기에 대응하기 위해 전력을 다하고 있다.

Three historical earthquake catalogues were compared with each other in the view of frequency of events per century, cumulative magnitude distribution, and annual earthquake occurrence rate in each unit grid of 0.1°by 0.1°. And, a method to determine earthquake epicenters and magnitudes was proposed given the historical earthquake data. With this method, the epicenters and magnitudes of future earthquakes in Korean penninsula for 1,000 years were generated with each earthquake catalogue. Earthquake PGAs with 10% exceedance probability in Seoul were calculated for each catalogue and compared.

In this paper, influence of shear on the seismic performance and failure mode of reinforced concrete piers subjected to earthquake loading is investigated. Comparative study has been carried out for reinforced concrete column tests to verify the shear-axial interaction model presented in this paper. Comparison shows that predicted shear hysteretic response agrees well with the test results. Also conducted is a nonlinear time-history analysis of a reinforced concrete bridge damaged by the Kobe earthquake using the current development. Displacement response for piers reveals that maximum displacement is considerably increased due to the effect of shear coupled with axial force variation, which leads to overall stiffness degradation and period elongation. It is therefore concluded that the response considering both shear and axial force gives better explanation regarding the seismic damage evaluation of reinforced concrete bridge piers.
