지보재의 파괴가 고려된 터널의 안전율을 산정하기 위해 허용응력 설계법에 기초하여 숏크리트 내에 발생하는 응력이 허용응력을 초과하면 숏크리트가 파괴된다고 가정하고, 전단강도 감소기법을 이용하여 수치해석적(2차원)으로 구하는 방법이 유광호 등(2005)에 의해 제시되었다. 하지만 허용응력 설계법에 근거한 방법은 숏크리트의 허용 휨응력을 과소평가하여 터널의 안정성 및 안전율을 과소평가하는 경향이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 숏크리트의 파괴거동을 갱도모형실험을 통해 확인하고 3차원 수치해석에 의해 검증하였다. 갱도모형실험에 사용된 터널은 실제 터널의 거동을 모사하기 위해 폭 3.3m, 높이 2.9m, 깊이 0.5m의 마제형으로 제작되었다. 지보재인 숏크리트는 거푸집을 이용하여 타설하고 28일간 양생하였고 7개의 실린더와 30cm의 모래 뒷채움을 이용하여 지보재에 최대한 등방하중이 가해질 수 있도록 하여 실험을 수행하였다.

해저관로가 노출되어 있을 경우 파도와 조류 등에 의한 외적 하중으로부터 안정적이어야 한다. 트랜치 구간 내의 해저관로에 작용하는 유체 입자의 속도와 가속도는 해저면과 비교하여 볼 때 현저히 감소하므로 감쇄 계수를 사용하여 트랜치 구간 내에 설치되는 해저관로의 안정성을 해석한다. 그러나, 다양한 트랜치 구간의 깊이와 기울기에 대한 감쇄 계수에 대해 많은 자료가 부족하여 실제 설계에는 한정된 계수들이 이용된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 깊이와 기울기를 가진 트랜치 구간의 실험 모형을 제작하여 회류 수조에서 P.I.V(입자 영상 속도계) 기법을 이용하여 여러 속도에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 다양한 트랜치 구간 내의 실린더 주변의 유동 특성과 유체 입자의 수평 속도를 측정하여 항력 감쇄 계수를 산출해 냈으며 실제 해양 공사에서 적용 가능한 안정성 해석 기준을 제시하였다.

Base-isolated liquid storage tanks under seismic loading were tested by the Pseudo-dynamic test method. Substructuring technique in which a mixed integration method was adopted and the liquid tanks were simply modeled as a discrete system. This study gave experimental verification on the advantage of mounting the liquid tanks on base isolators in order to reduce the hydrodynamic forces on the tank wall.

The retrofit priority of existing and retrofitted bridges is examined and compared to determine effectively the seismic retrofit method of bridges. For the retrofit prioritization of bridges a quantitative procedure is proposed firstly based on seismic damage probabilities and total failure cost due to the damage of seismic vulnerable components. Using the proposed procedure, the retrofit priority of four typical girder-type bridges is determined. In addition, the ranking indices of bridges retrofitted by steel jackets and cable restrainers are revaluated for comparing with the results of existing bridges. Application of retrofitting method can considerably decreases damage possibilities of retrofitted components but may increases those of adjacent vulnerable components. Therefore, the seismic retrofitting effects based on the global motions of existing and retrofitted bridges should be examined to determine efficiently the retrofitting method. For evaluating the retrofitting effects the ranking indices obtained from the proposed procedure is found to be utilized effectively.

Solar radiation induces non-uniform temperature distribution in the bridge structure depending on the shape of the structure and shadows cast on it. Especially in the case of curved steel box girder bridges, non-uniform temperature distribution caused by solar radiation may lead to unusual load effects enough to damage the support or even topple the whole curved bridge structure if not designed properly. At present, it is very difficult to design bridges in relation to solar radiation because it is not known exactly how varying temperature distribution affects bridges; at least not specific enough for adoption in design. Standard regulations related to this matter are likewise not complete. In this study, the thermal behavior of curved steel box girder bridges is analyzed while taking the solar radiation effect into consideration. For the analysis, a method of predicting the 3-dimensional temperature distribution of curved bridges was developed. It uses a theoretical solar radiation energy equation together with a commercial FEM program. The behavior of the curved steel box girder bridges was examined using the developed method, while taking into consideration the diverse range of bridge azimuth angles and radii. This study also provides reference data for the thermal design of curved steel box girder bridges under solar radiation, which can be used to develop design guidelines.

본 논문에서는 단일 및 군말뚝의 수평변위를 예측하기 위하여 신경망 학습속도의 향상과 지역 최소점 수렴을 방지하는 Readjusting 기법을 적용한 인공신경망을 도입하였다. 이 인공신경망을 M-EBPNN 이라고 한다. M-EBPNN에 의한 결과는 낙동강 모래지반에서 단일 및 군말뚝에 대하여 수행한 일련의 모형실험결과와 비교하였으며, 그리고 신경망의 학습속도와 지역 최소점의 수렴성을 평가하기 위하여 오류 역전파 신경망(EBPNN)의 결과와도 비교 분석하였다. M-EBPNN의 적용성 검증을 위하여 200개의 모형실험결과들을 이용하였으며, 신경망의 구조는 EBPNN의 구조와 동일한 한 개의 입력층과 두 개의 은닉층 그리고 한 개의 출력층으로 구성되었다. 전체 데이터의 25%, 50% 그리고 75% 결과는 각각 신경망의 학습에 이용되었으며 학습에 이용하지 않은 데이터들은 예측에 이용되었다. 그리고, 신경망의 최적학습을 위하여 적합한 은닉층의 뉴런 수와 학습률은 EBPNN에서 결정한 값들을 본 신경망에 이용하였다. 해석결과들에 의하면, 동일한 학습패턴에서의 M-EBPNN이 학습 반복횟수는 EBPNN 보다 최고 88% 감소하였으며 지역 최소점에 수렴하는 현상은 거의 나타나지 않았다. 따라서, 인공신경망 모델이 수평하중을 받는 말뚝의 수평변위 예측에 적용될 수 있는 가능성을 보여 주었다.

An efficient and practical reliability evaluation method is proposed for the coastal structures in this paper. It is capable of evaluating reliability of real complicated coastal structures considering uncertainties in various sources of design parameters, such as wave and current loads, resistance-related design variables including Young's modulus and compressive strength of the reinforced concrete, soil parameters, and boundary conditions. It is developed by intelligently integrating the Latin Hypercube sampling (LHS), Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) and the finite element method (FEM). The LHS-based MCS is used to significantly reduce the computational effort by limiting the number of simulation cycles required for the reliability evaluation. The applicability and efficiency of the proposed method were verified using a caisson-type breakwater structure in the numerical example.

Many case histories of re-liquefaction phenomena seem to support the idea that sand deposits, if they once have been liquefied, could be reliquefied again by a subsequent earthquake even though the earthquake is smaller than the previous one. The magnitude of the strains induced in the initial liquefaction has a significant influence on the resistance of the sample to re-liquefaction. The deposits undergoing liquefaction experience large shear strain during liquefaction. And this previous strain changes the microstructure into highly anisotropic structure such as columnlike structure and connected voids. This type of anisotropy is so unstable that it can reduce re-liquefaction resistance. It is blown that the extent of anisotropic structural change depends on the gradation characteristics of ground. The purpose of this study is to estimate the correlation between the gradation characteristics of the sand and the ratio of re-liquefaction resistance to liquefaction resistance. In this study, 1-g shaking table tests were carried out on five different kinds of sands. During the tests the values of excess pore pressure at various depths and surface settlements were measured. Re-liquefaction resistances were not affected by the initial void ratio and the effective confining pressures, and the deposits of all test sands which had once been liquefied were reliquefied in the cyclic loading number below 1 to 1.5. The ratio of re-liquefaction resistance to liquefaction resistance linearly decreased as $D_{10}/C_u$ increased, and was constant as about 0.2 above the value of $D_{10}/C_u$, 0.15 mm.

A new procedure needs to be developed to predict the dynamic layer properties under moving truck loads. In this study, a computer code to evaluate layer moduli of asphalt concrete pavement from measured interior deflections at various depths were developed and verified from numerical model tests. Interior deflections of the pavement are measured from Multi-Depth Deflectometer(MDD). It was found that errors between the given and backcalculated moduli in numerical analysis were less than 0.32% for several numerical models tested. When impact loads were used, a technique to determine the depth to virtual rigid base was proposed through the analysis of compressive wave velocity and impulse loading durations. It was found that errors between the given and backcalculated moduli in numerical analysis were less than 0.114% when virtual rigid base was considered in numerical analysis. The pavement behavior must be evaluated under various vehicle speeds when determining the dynamic interaction between the loading vehicle and pavement system. To evaluate the dynamic behavior on asphalt concrete pavement under various vehicle speeds, truck moving tests were carried out. From the test results with respect to vehicle speed, it was found that the vehicle speed had significant effect on actual response of the pavement system. The lower vehicle speed generates the higher interior deflections, and the lower dynamic modulus.
