  • Seismic refraction survey was peformed for 10 lines along NE-SW and NW-SE directions above Nampoong gallery at Makyo-ri, Dogye, Samcheok, Kangwon-do. 48 geophones were laid in line with the interval of 1m, and a 5Kg hammer was used as a source at 5 points for each line. Data processing was done using reciprocal time method, GRM, and traveltime tomography which utilizes wavefront expansion method for forward process and SIRT for inversion. The result shows that the first layer has its lower boundary between 3.49m and 8.88m. The P-wave velocity of the first and the second layer were estimated as 270 360m/s and 1550 1940m/s respectively. When the boundary of the first and second layer is smooth enough and the velocity difference is large enough, GRM has little advantage over reciprocal time method. The result of reciprocal method and traveltime tomography shows consistency. The northeast part of the boundary has syncline structure, which is similar to the topography above. This implies that the collapse of the cavities of Nampoong gallery result in the subsidence of the ground surface. The subsidence is in progress across the Youngdong railroad, therefore a proper reinforcement work is required.

  • The collapse of civil infrastructure due to natural disasters results in financial losses and many casualties. In particular, the recent increase in earthquake activities has highlighted on the importance of assessing the seismic performance and predicting the seismic risk of a structure. However, the nonlinear behavior of a structure and the uncertainty in ground motion complicate the accurate seismic response prediction of a structure. Artificial intelligence can overcome these limitations to reasonably predict the nonlinear behavior of structures. In this study, a deep learning-based algorithm was developed to estimate the time-history seismic response of bridge structures. The proposed deep neural network was trained using structural and ground motion parameters. The performance of the seismic response prediction algorithm showed the similar phase and magnitude to those of the time-history analysis in a single-degree-of-freedom system that exhibits nonlinear behavior as a main structural element. Then, the proposed algorithm was expanded to predict the seismic response and fragility prediction of a bridge system. The proposed deep neural network reasonably predicted the nonlinear seismic behavior of piers and bearings for approximately 93% and 87% of the test dataset, respectively. The results of the study also demonstrated that the proposed algorithm can be utilized to assess the seismic fragility of bridge components and system.

  • 본 연구에서는 실질적으로 붕괴된 보강토 옹벽 사고 사례를 통해 그 원인을 분석한 내용을 다루었다. 원인분석은 붕괴된 보강토 옹벽에서 채취한 뒷채움재의 역학적 실험을 실시하였으며, 사면안정 해석과 문헌조사를 통하여 수행하였다. 붕괴된 보강토 옹벽의 대표단면을 산정하여 국외의 보강토 옹벽 설계법인 FHWA 설계법과 NCMA 설계법에 의거 비교 분석 하였다. 붕괴된 보강토 옹벽 뒷채움 흙의 입도시험 분석 결과 200번체 통과량이 FHWA 기준치를 초과 하였다. 이는 여름철 집중 호우시 배수가 불량하여 침투수에 의한 간극수압이 급격하게 증가하여 유효응력이 감소해 전단 강도가 현저히 저하되어 붕괴된 것으로 판단된다. 또한 사면안정 해석 결과 충분한 안전율을 확보하지 못한데 그 원인이 있다고 할 수 있다.

  • This paper presents a numerical method for evaluating fire performance of prestressed concrete (PC) T shaped bridge girders under combined effect of structural loading and hydrocarbon fire exposure conditions. A numerical model, developed using the computer program ANSYS, is employed to investigate fire response of PC T shaped bridge girders by taking into consideration structural inherent parameters, namely; arrangement of prestressing strands with in the girder section, thickness of concrete cover over prestressing strands, effective degree of prestress and content of prestressing strands. Then, a sequential thermo-mechanical analysis is performed to predict cross sectional temperature followed by mechanical response of T shaped bridge girders. The validity of the numerical model is established by comparing temperatures, deflections and failure time generated from fire tests. Through numerical studies, it is shown that thickness of concrete cover and arrangement of prestressing strands in girder section have significant influence on the fire resistance of PC T shaped bridge girders. Increase in effective degree of prestress in strands with triangular shaped layout and content in prestressing strands can slow down the progression of deflections in PC T shaped bridge girder towards the final stages of fire exposure, to thereby preventing sudden collapse of the girder. Rate of deflection based failure criterion governs failure in PC T shaped bridge girders under most hydrocarbon fire exposure conditions. Structural inherent parameters incorporated into sectional configuration can significantly enhance fire resistance of PC bridge girders; thus mitigating fire induced collapse of these bridge girders.

  • It is considered that most of reusable pipe supports, which are used as formwork support posting at construction sites, do not meet the performance standard. Due to the use of reusable pipe supports that do not meet such performance standard the potential risk of collapse accident is increasing. Therefore, this study identifies the status of compliance with performance standard, and presents the requirements for improving quality control to prevent the collapse of pipe supports reused at the construction site. First, if the female thread of the product with no clearance and new support pin with the diameter of 12mm are replaced at the same time for use, it is considered that the performance will be improved. Second, as the quality performance during use can be improved in the case of larger thickness of inner diameter compared to the case of larger thickness of outer diameter, it is necessary to increase the inner pipe thickness greatly than the current thickness. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that the performance the reusable pipe support (V4) can be improved, if the diameter of the support pin is 12mm, the female thread has a small clearance, and the inner tube thickness is 2.3 ~ 2.7mm. In addition, it is considered that other performance improvement factors included in the study results could be used as important data for improving the performance of reusable pipe support.

  • 범주형 자료에서 오분류는 자료를 수집하는 과정에서 발생될 수 있다. 오분류되어 있는 자료를 정확한 자료로 간주하여 분석한다면 추정결과에 편의가 발생하고 검정력이 약화되는 결과를 초래하게 되며, 정확하게 분류된 자료를 오분류하고 판단한다면 오분류의 수정을 위해 불필요한 비용과 시간을 낭비해야 할 것이다. 따라서 정확하게 분류된 표본인지 오분류된 표본인지를 판정하는 것은 자료를 분석하기 전에 이루어져야할 매우 중요한 과정이다. 본 논문은 I$\times$J 분할표로 주어지는 범주형 자료에서 두 변수 중 하나의 변수에서만 오분류가 발생되는 경우에 오분류 여부를 검정하기 위해서 오분류 가능성이 없는 변수에 대한 주변합은 고정시키고, 오분류 여부를 가능성이 있는 변수의 주변합을 Sebastiani와 Ramoni(1997)가 제안한 Bound와 외부정보로 표현되는 Collapse의 개념, 그리고 베이지안 방법을 확장하여 자료에 적합한 모형과 사전정보를 고려한 사전모수를 다양하게 설정하면서 재분류하는 연구를 하였다. 오분류에 대한 정보를 얻기 위해서 Tenenbein(1970)에 의해 연구된 이중추출법을 이용하여 오분류 검정을 위한 새로운 통계량을 제안하였으며, 제안된 오분류 검정통계량에 관한 분포를 다양한 모의실험을 통하여 연구하였다.

  • 서울을 비롯한 수도권 일대는 우리나라 인구의 약 40%가 집중되어 갑작스럽게 닥치는 지진재해에 매우 취약한 곳이다. 역사문헌 분석에 의하면 과거 2000여 년간 서울 지역에서 발생한 피해 지진의 최대 크기는 MMI 진도 VIII-IX로 평가되며, 이들 지진으로 건물의 큰 흔들림, 담장과 성첩의 붕괴, 민가 붕괴, 다수의 사상자가 발생하였다. 서울 지역에서 MM 진도 VIII 이상의 피해지진은 1세기(A.D. 27년, 89년)에 2회 발생하였으며, 약 1430여년의 긴 휴지기 후 16-17세기(1518년, 1613년, 1692년)에 다시 3회 발생하였고, 그 후 현재 까지 휴지기 상태이다. 1518년 서울 지진(진도 VIII-IX)시에는 약 19일에 걸쳐 24회 이상의 여진이 발생하였으며, 서울 인접 지역과 황해도 지역에도 20여 일간에 걸쳐 많은 유발지진을 발생시켰다. 역사문헌에 근거한 서울 지역의 발생 가능한 최대 피해 지진은 진도 VIII-IX 이며 이러한 지진의 발생은 약 1400-1500여년의 긴 간격을 보인다.

  • The girder of self-anchored suspension bridge is subjected to large compression force applied by main cables. So, serious damage of the girder due to breakage of hangers may cause collapse of the whole bridge. With the time increasing, the hangers may break suddenly for their resistance capacities decrease due to corrosion. Using nonlinear static and dynamic analysis methods and adopting 3D finite element model, the responses of a concrete self-anchored suspension bridge to sudden breakage of hangers are studied in this paper. The results show that the sudden breakage of a hanger has significant effects on tensions of the hangers next to the broken hanger, bending and torsion moments of the girder, moments of the towers and reaction forces of the bearings. The results obtained from dynamic analysis method are very different from those obtained from static analysis method. The maximum tension of hanger produced by breakage of a hanger exceeds 2.2 times of its initial value, the maximum dynamic amplification factor reaches 2.54, which is larger than the value of 2.0 recommended for cable-stayed bridge in PTI codes. If two adjacent hangers on the same side of bridge break one after another, the maximum tension of other hangers exceeds 3.0 times of its initial value. If the safety factor adopted to design hanger is too small, or the hangers have been exposed to corrosion, the bridge may collapse due to breakage of two adjacent hangers.

  • The attack of environmental aggressive agents progressively reduces the structural reliability of buildings and infrastructures and, in the worst exposition conditions, may even lead to their collapse in the long period. A change in the material and sectional characteristics of a structural element, due to the environmental damaging effects, changes its mechanical behaviour and varies both the internal stress redistribution and the kinematics through which it reaches its ultimate state. To identify such a behaviour, the evolution of both the damaging process and its mechanical consequences have to be taken into account. This paper presents a computational approach for the analysis of reinforced and prestressed concrete elements under sustained loading conditions and subjected to given damaging scenarios. The effects of the diffusion of aggressive agents, of the onset and development of the corrosion state in the reinforcement and the corresponding mechanical response are studied. As known, the corrosion on the reinforcing bars influences the damaging rate in the cracking pattern evolution; hence, the damage development and the mechanical behaviours are considered as coupled phenomena. The reliability of such an approach is validated in modelling the diffusion of the aggressive agents and the changes in the mechanical response of simple structural elements whose experimental behaviour is reported in Literature. A second set of analyses studies the effects of the corrosion of the tendons of a P.C. beam and explores potentially unexpected structural responses caused by corrosion under different aggressive exposition. The role of the different types and of the different positions of the damaging agents is discussed. In particular, it is shown how the collapse mode of the beam may switch from flexural to shear type, in case corrosion is caused by a localized chloride attack in the shear span.
