In this paper, numerical analyses were conducted on piled raft foundation settlement and pile bearing characteristics in soft ground. Results obviously showed longer and larger piles developed end bearing capacity values, but also showed the load of the central pile is larger than the surrounding piles in a group formation. Additionally, after pile yielding, the load carrying capacity exists as a raft. Moreover, results showed no transverse displacement according to embedment depth for the single pile case, but larger transverse displacements for deeper embedment depths.

자동수문이란 설정된 관리수위 이하에서는 수문이 개방되지 않고, 유량이 증가하여 관리수위 이상이 되면 수문이 개방되어 관리수위까지 방류하게 되면 다시 수문이 닫히게 되어 자동으로 관리수위를 유지한다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 연직 자동수문의 방류특성이 수동식 연직수문과 다른 점은 유량에 따라서 수문 개방고의 증감과 수문개폐가 자동으로 이루어진다는 것이다. 따라서 자동수문의 운영 중 수문개방고의 거동과 자동개폐 시점을 예측하는 것은 정밀한 수문설계를 위해 매우 중요하다. 수문 개방 시 흐름이 정지되어있다고 가정하면, 정수압 상태의 부력이론에 의한 부력수문의 개방고는 어렵지 않게 계산할 수 있다. 그러나, 흐름이 정지되어 있다가 수문의 하단으로 방류가 시작되면 수문 선단을 포함한 주변에 압력 차이로 인해 동수압 하중이 발생하게 되어 수문에 진동을 유발하고, 수문개방을 억제하는 힘이 발생하여 수문 운영에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 부력식 수문의 모형실험을 통하여 정수압 상태의 부력이론에 의한 수문 개방율과 측정에 의한 수문 개방율을 비교하였으며, 압력계수를 이용하여 이론과 측정 수문 개방고의 차이는 동적하중에 의한 효과임을 확인하였다. 모형실험에서 측정된 자료와 수치모형 ANSYS - Fluent의 사용성을 검증하였고, 부력식 수문의 형상에 따른 동적하중을 분석하였다. 수문 형상비는 0.24~1.09로 설정하였고, 분석결과 부력식 수문은 수문 개방율이 커짐에 따라 압력계수는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 동적하중은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 부력식 수문의 형상비에 따라서는 형상비가 증가함에 따라 동적하중이 감소하는 관계를 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to investigate features of transverse crack occurrence and propagation in continuously reinforced concrete pavement(CRCP) when subjected to environmental loading. The finite element model of CRCP was developed and the element removal method was implemented to predict the crack propagation process. To investigate the effect of the type of environmental loading on the CRCP behavior and cracking aspects, the following three different cases were considered: (1) the temperature gradient between top and bottom of the slab does not vary and the constant temperature drop throughout the depth occurs; (2) the temperature at the slab bottom does not vary and the temperature gradient increases; and (3) the temperature between the mid-depth and the bottom of the slab is the same and does not vary and the temperature at the top decreases. The analysis results showed that the crack occurrence and propagation through the depth of the slab in CRCP were significantly affected by the type of environmental loading. The changes in stress distribution and displacements during the crack occurrence and propagation process could also be investigated.

Industrial and environmental facilities, which are national growth engine, must sustain their structural safety and maintain their process to continue production activities under various load conditions including natural hazards. In this study, by improving existing design codes which aim to secure the structural safety only, new structural and seismic design codes are proposed to secure both the structural safety and the operability of facilities. In the proposed structural design code, a variety of loads to reflect the characteristics of industrial and environmental facilities are considered and load combinations for the ultimate strength design and the allowable stress design of structures are suggested. Considering the importance of a unit industrial facility and that of a unit process, the seismic design class, design earthquake, and seismic performance level of a unit component are determined to achieve the dual seismic performance objectives for securing both the structural safety and the operability. Also, the proposed design code are applied to an example of an environmental facility in order to examine its applicability.

Concrete slab curls and warps due to the uneven distribution of temperature and moisture and as the result, internal stress develops within the slab. Therefore, environmental loads must be considered in addition to the traffic loads to predict the lifespan of the concrete pavement more accurately. The strength of the concrete slab is gradually decreases to a certain level at which fatigue cracking is generated by the repetitive traffic and environmental loadings. In this study, a new fatigue regression model was developed based on the results from previously performed studies. To verify the model, another laboratory flexural fatigue test program which was not used in the model development, was conducted and compared with the predictions of other existing models. Each fatigue model was applied to analysis logic of cumulative fatigue damage of concrete pavement developed in the study. The sensitivity of cumulative fatigue damage calculated by each model was analyzed for the design factors such as slab thickness, joint spacing, complex modulus of subgrade reaction and the load transfer at joints. As the result, the model developed in this study could reflect environmental loading more reasonably by improving other existing models which consider R, minimum/maximum stress ratio.

The lateral behavior characteristics of concrete group pile under the lateral load were examined by the laboratory model tests in this study. Piles were socketed 1D(D : pile diameter) in the concrete block, and model tests were executed on $2{\times}3$ group piles, of which the length were 11D, 15D and 20D. All results of loading tests under each condition was presented by the lateral load-displacement curves, and the displacements in the ground under the lateral loads were measured. As a results of model tests, as the ratio of pile length/diameter(L/D) was decreased, the yielding load and the lateral displacement at that load were increased. The yielding load was evaluated as the load at lateral displacement of 15 mm. The yielding loads at the pile length of 11D, 15D and 20D were 11.7, 6.2kN and 3.4kN. The lateral displacements of pile in the ground under each condition were measured linearly and the failure occurred at the location where the piles were socketed in concrete block.

A ship operating under rough sea conditions is exposed to a slamming load due owing to its motion relative to encountered waves. In the process of reentering the water, the ship's structure is temporarily subjected to an impact pressure. In particular, bow flare slamming often occurs in large container ships with a large flare angle, and can cause structural damage. Numerical simulations were performed in this study, and the results were compared with reliable experimental results. The simulation results were also used to estimate the bow flare slamming pressures on a container ship under head sea and oblique sea conditions. It was found that a maximum impact pressure of 475 kPa was generated near the 0.975 station of the container ship under a head sea condition.
