It is a significant issue for several country including Korea, where the natural and the weather conditions are severe, to keep the safety against disasters which occur frequently every year, especially in urban region crowded with population. In order to implement suitable and effective measures against various disasters in such area, development of method for evaluation of disaster prevention performance based on various disaster risks and effective disaster damage mitigation technologies is independable. In this paper, methods for hazard evaluation, vulnerability evaluation and loss evaluation, and damage technologies are proposed targetting man-made disaster and natural one like flood, earthquake and tsunami and so on. The method proposed in this paper is based on the research of USA and Japan for man-made disaster and natural disaster. The proposed method will be developed in detail in four years during research period funded by government.

Earthquake is a natural disaster accompanied by damage of human and properties caused by the ground motion, crustal movements, faults as well as tidal wave. The earthquake is known to occur mostly in earthquake-prone areas and the Korean Peninsula is known to be relatively safe in terms of geological characteristics. In order to withstand on severe environmental dynamic random load such as an earthquake, the large structure need to be designed to withstand the anticipated seismic tremor. The seismetic design is essential for building structures, bridges, and large structures which is handles explosive gases. Thus, the necessity of earthquake resistant analysis for large structure is growing and the capability of dynamic analysis should be obtained. In this thesis, dynamic responses of a high building(height 60m, width 18) which subjected to random earthquake load are presented which responses are derived using dynamic analysis methods such as response spectrum analysis, mode superposition and direct integration. Each results are also compared to review the merit of each methods.

The perception of earthquake in Korea has changed due to the earthquake that occurred in Gyeongju and Pohang, and the earthquake has become an important factor in infrastructure management. Damage to infrastructures in the event of an earthquake is extensive. In particular, damage to infrastructures that perform public function used to spread to the whole area. From the point of view of earthquake disaster prevention, it is very important for the public to define what infrastructures are important management targets and to prepare a countermeasure. In this study, we propose a method to evaluate the importance of infrastructure to effectively manage infrastructures for earthquakes. For this purpose, important factors for the railway bridges, power generation and electric power facilities, and apartment complexes are suggested. AHP analysis is conducted to suggest priorities. In addition, the evaluation criteria for infrastructure importance are presented.

본 연구의 목적은 경주 단구리 활성단층대에 설치된 지하수 관측정과 주변 국가지하수관측정 124개 공에서 지진발생에 따른 지하수위 변동특성을 알아보는 데 있다. 수위자료를 활용하여 시공간적 분포특성과 지진과의 상관성을 해석하였으며, 발생한 지진에 대하여 관측정의 반응에 대한 효율성(잠재성)을 나타내는 Earthquake effectiveness(ε)와 q-factor를 계산하여 유효성을 분석하였다. 관측기간 중 단구리 관측정의 지하수위 변동은 E1(2019년 4월 22일 M 3.8) 지진 발생 이후(post-seismic) 83 cm의 지하수위 하강을, E2(2019년 6월 11일 M 2.5) 지진발생 전(pre-seismic) 76 cm의 지하수위 상승을 보여주었다. 주변 국가지하수관측정의 수위자료를 이용하여 시간에 따른 공간분포 분석결과, 단층대 주변 관측정에서 수위변동이 상대적으로 높은 특성을 보인다. 그리고 충적지하수보다 암반지하수에서 더 큰 수위변동을 보여 암반 지하수가 지진 관측에 유리함을 보여준다. 이러한 수위의 상승과 하강은 지진에 의해 암반에 가해지는 인장응력에 의한 균열의 증가와 압축응력에 의한 공극의 감소와 관련된 것으로 보인다. 단구리 관측정의 Earthquake effectiveness(ε)와 q-factor의 유효범위는 각각 2.70E-10~5.60E-10, 14.4~18.0으로 산정되었다.

The main objective of seismic codes is to prevent structural collapse and ensure life safety. Collapse probability of a structure is usually assessed by making a series of analytical model assumptions. This paper investigates the effect of finite element modeling (FEM) assumptions on the estimated collapse capacity of a reinforced concrete (RC) frame building and points out the modeling limitations. Widely used element formulations and hysteresis models are considered in the analysis. A full-scale, three-story RC frame building was utilized as the experimental model. Alternative finite element models are established by adopting a range of different modeling strategies. Using each model, the collapse capacity of the structure is evaluated via Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA). Results indicate that the analytically estimated collapse capacities are significantly sensitive to the utilized modeling approaches. Furthermore, results also show that models that represent stiffness degradation lead to a better correlation between the actual and analytical responses. Results of this study are expected to be useful for in developing proper models for assessing the collapse probability of RC frame structures.

The 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake ($M_w$ 6.9, $M_{jma}$ 7.2) occurred on 14 June 2008 in Japan. The amplification and asymmetric waveform of the vertical acceleration at the ground surface recorded by accelerometers at station IWTH25, situated 3 km from the source, were remarkable in two ways. First, the vertical acceleration was extremely large (PGA = 38.66 $m/s^2$ for the vertical component, PGA = 42.78 $m/s^2$ for the sum of the three components). Second, an unusual asymmetric waveform, which is too far above the zero acceleration axis, as well as large upward spikes were observed. Using a multidegree-of-freedom (MDF) system consisting of a one-dimensional continuum subjected to vertical acceleration recorded at a depth of 260 m below ground level, the present paper clarifies numerically that these singular phenomena in the surface vertical acceleration records occurred as a result of the jumping and collision of a layer in vertical motion. We herein propose a new mechanism for such jumping and collision of ground layers. The unexpected extensive landslides that occurred in the area around the epicenter are believed to have been produced by such jumping under the influence of vertical acceleration.

Many megacities are exposed to natural hazards such as earthquakes, and when located in coastal regions, are also vulnerable to hurricanes and tsunamis. The physical infrastructures of transportation systems in megacities have become so complicated that very few organizations can understand their response to extreme events such as earthquakes and can effectively mitigate subsequent economic downfalls. The technological advances made in recent years to support these complex systems have not grown as fast as the rapid demand on these systems burdened by population shift toward megacities. The objective of this paper is to examine the risks imposed on and recoveries of transportation systems in megacities as the result of extreme events such as an earthquake. First, the physical damage to transportation infrastructure, loss of the transportation system performance, and the corresponding economic loss from disruptions to passenger and freight traffic is evaluated. Then, traffic flows are re-routed to reduce vehicles' delay due to earthquakes using a microscopic traffic flow simulator with an optimization model and macroscopic terminal simulator. Finally, the economic impact of the earthquake is estimated nationwide. Southern California is regarded as the region of study. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the integrated model and provide what and how to prepare innovative resilience policies of urban infrastructure for a natural disaster occurrence.

Banda Aceh is one of the areas that sustains the most damage during a natural disaster because it contains so many houses, office buildings, public facilities, and schools. Public structures in coastal areas are highly susceptible to earthquakes, resulting in high casualties and property damage. Several public structures were reconstructed during the reconstruction and rehabilitation period. Because this building is located in an area with a high risk of earthquakes, its capacity must be analyzed initially. Additionally, history indicates that Aceh Province has been struck by numerous earthquakes, including the largest ever recorded in 1983 and the most recent earthquake with a magnitude of 9.3 SR on December 26, 2004. The city of Banda Aceh was devastated by this earthquake, which was followed by a tsunami. The possibility of a large earthquake in Banda Aceh City necessitates that the structures constructed there be resistant to seismic risk. This study's objective was to evaluate the seismic performance of the existing building by applying the method of strengthening the structure in the form of jacketing columns and the addition of steel bracing in order to estimate the performance of the structure using multiple ground motions. Therefore, several public buildings must be analyzed to determine the optimal seismic retrofitting technique.

2016년 5월 27일에 확정된 "지진방재 개선대책"은 크게 4부분으로 나누어 개선대책을 제시하고 있다. 다양한 방면으로 개선대책을 제시하고 있으나 언론에 휘둘리는 경향이 보이며, 실질적으로 효과가 있을지 의문스럽다. 외국 사례와 특히 최다 지진에 강한 일본의 사례를 참고하여 우리나라 실정에 맞게 효율적인 대책을 마련하여야 한다.

본 연구에서는 상수도시설물에 대해 손상단계를 기능수행과 붕괴방지로 나누고, 해외실측지진과 한반도형 인공지진에 대해 각각의 최대지반가속도에 따른 취약도 함수를 도출하였다. 손상단계 및 지반가속도를 이용하여 상수도시설물의 지진파에 따른 취약도 곡선을 도출하여 비교분석하였다. 해석결과, 도복장강관과 덕타일 주철관에 한반도형인공지진을 재하하는 경우, 해외실측지진을 재하하는 경우에 비하여 중앙값이 최소 0.1에서 최대 0.4까지 작아지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제안된 한반도형 인공지진을 이용한 지진취약도 곡선은 국내실정에 맞는 합리적인 내진 설계에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
