방사성폐기물 심지층 처분시스템의 안전성평가에서는 일반적으로 정상 시나리오 이외에 심지층 처분시스템이 외부 요인에 의해서 영향을 받는 비정상 시나리오를 추가적으로 고려하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 방사성폐기물 심지층 처분시스템의 비정상 시나리오를 포함하는 복합피폭 시나리오에 대한 안전성평가를 위하여 비정상 시나리오를 구성하는 비정상 사건으로 지진의 국내 발생 특성을 조사하였다. 이를 위하여, 국내(한반도)의 지진 자료에 대한 통계·확률적인 접근법으로 발생 특성을 조사하고, 이를 통해 미래의 지진 발생 특성을 예측하는 방법론과 함께 계산 예를 소개하였다. 그 결과, 국내 연간 지진 발생빈도는 자료의 종류에 따라 그리고 최소 유효 지진규모에 따라 0.4 /yr에서 36.2 /yr까지 넓게 분포되었다. 최종적으로, 처분시스템 안전성평가의 보수성 측면에서 위의 범위 내 최대값인 36.2 /yr가 국내 연간 지진 발생 빈도로써 제안되었고, 처분시스템의 면적비를 고려하여 처분시스템 영향 반경 내 연간 지진 발생 빈도는 5.4×10^-4 /yr로 계산되었다. 그리고, 이때의 최소 유효 지진 규모는 2.3이었다. 본 연구는 앞으로 비정상 사건들이 처분시스템에 미치는 영향에 대한 추가 연구와 함께 향후 복합피폭 시나리오를 고려한 심지층 처분시스템의 안전성평가 신뢰도 향상에 크게 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

Seismic fragility was assessed for non-seismic reinforced concrete shear walls in Korean high-rise apartment buildings in order to implement an earthquake damage prediction system. Seismic hazard was defined with an earthquake scenario, in which ground motion intensity was varied with respect to prescribed seismic center distances given an earthquake magnitude. Ground motion response spectra were computed using Korean ground motion attenuation equations to match accelerograms. Seismic fragility functions were developed using nonlinear static and dynamic analysis for comparison. Differences in seismic fragility between damage state criteria including inter-story drifts and the performance of individual structural members were investigated. The analyzed building had an exceptionally long period for the fundamental mode in the longitudinal direction and corresponding contribution of higher modes because of a prominently insufficient wall quantity in such direction. The results showed that nonlinear static analyses based on a single mode tend to underestimate structural damage. Moreover, detailed assessments of structural members are recommended for seismic fragility assessment of a relatively low performance level such as collapse prevention. On the other hand, inter-story drift is a more appropriate criterion for a relatively high performance level such as immediate occupancy.

The seismic damage assessment to the postulated earthquake is attempted for the buildings in the model district of Seoul City. The capacity spectrum method is employed in which the vulnerability functions are expressed as functions of the spectral displacement. the database of the building stock is constructed and managed using Geographic Information System software. The model district is selected to represent the typical structural and residential characteristics of Seoul City The structural properties were collected from the design documents. The field inspections were carried out to find out the current status of the building. They are classified into 11 structural types. The fragility curves in HazUS are employed, The ground motions from the postulated earthquakes are simulated using the Boor's methods, The surface soil in the district is classified into 3 profiles using the depth as the parameter. The one-dimensional wave propagation method is used to calculate he filtered ground motion through surface soil layer. The average spectrum of this sample time histories is used as the demand curves. The calculated results are expressed in maps using GIS software ArcView 3.0a

Low-frequency geological natural disaster events such as Pohang earthquake have been occurred. As a results, there's a growing recognition on the importance of education and training for low frequency geological disasters in Korea. In spite of many years of scientific researches on volcanic disaster prevention and preparedness on Baekdusan volcano, the results do not provide the proper scenario for the training for volcanic ash event. Fall 3D volcanic ash diffusion model was run based on wind field data for the last five year, assuming Aso Mountain's explosion with volcanic explosion index 5 for seventy two hours. The management criteria values for proper actions in the previous studies were applied to make a scenario for thirteen groups of the disaster response teams such as train transportation, water supply, electrical facilities and human health. The models on the relationship between education and training for disaster prevention and response were suggested to fulfill the scientific and practical training at local level.

미국의 FEMA와 NIBS에서 개발한 HAZUS-MH는 GIS를 기반시스템으로 하는 자연재해 전후의 피해정도를 평가 및 분석하는 재해정보시스템이다. 본 연구에서는 HAZUS-MH를 한반도의 일부지역에 시범적으로 적용하고, 그 운영에서의 효율성 및 문제점을 제시한다. 한반도 지진관련 연구자료 및 역사지진자료를 토대로 경상남북도를 적용대상지역으로 선정하였다. 연구지역에서 발생한 지진 중 인명피해가 있었던 서기 779년 경주에서 발생한 규모 6.7의 지진을 선택하여, 이 지진이 2000년도에 재발생하였다는 가정 하에 HAZUS를 적용하였다. 이 시스템을 적용하여 연구지역의 지진재해를 예측할 때 USGS에서 제공하는 ShakeMap의 지진동자료를 이용하였다. 이러한 연구를 통하여 미국의 HAZUS가 한반도에도 적용가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 한반도 전 지역에서 발생하는 모든 자연재해에 대하여 HAZUS를 적용한다면 우리나라의 자연재해에 의한 피해를 예측하고 대응하는데 효율적으로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study presents the reliability-based analysis of nonlinear structures using the analytical fragility curves excited by random earthquake loads. The stochastic method of ground motion simulation is combined with the random vibration theory to compute structural failure probability. The formulation of structural failure probability using random vibration theory, based on only the frequency information of the excitation, provides an important basis for structural analysis in places where there is a lack of sufficient recorded ground motions. The importance of frequency content of ground motions on probability of structural failure is studied for different levels of the nonlinear behavior of structures. The set of simulated ground motion for this study is based on the results of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. It is demonstrated that the scenario events identified by the seismic risk differ from those obtained by the disaggregation of seismic hazard. The validity of the presented procedure is evaluated by Monte-Carlo simulation.

A ground-motion prediction equation (GMPE) for the Korean Peninsula, especially for South Korea, is developed based on synthetic ground motions generated using a ground motion model derived from instrumental records from 11 recent earthquakes of $M_L$>4.5 in Korea, including the Gyeongju earthquake of Sept. 12. 2016 ($M_L$5.8). PSAs of one standard deviation from the developed GMPE with $M_W$ 6.5 at hypocentral distances of 15 km and 25 km are compared to the design spectrum (soil condition, $S_B$) of the Korean Building Code 2016 (KBC), indicating that: (1) PSAs at short periods around 0.2 sec can be 1.5 times larger than the corresponding KBC PSA, and (2) SD's at periods longer than 2 sec do not exceed 8 cm. Although this comparison of the design spectrum with those of the GMPE developed herein intends to identify the characteristics of the scenario earthquake in a lower-seismicity region such as South Korea, it does not mean that the current design spectrum should be modified accordingly. To develop a design spectrum compatible with the Korean Peninsula, more systematic research using probabilistic seismic hazard analysis is necessary in the future.

Surface wave techniques are widely used as non-invasive method for geotechnical site characterization. Field surface wave data are collected and analyzed using different processing techniques to generate the dispersion curves, which are further used to extract the shear wave velocity profile by inverse problem solution. Characteristics of a dispersion curve depend on the subsurface layering information of a vertically heterogeneous medium. Sometimes soft layer can be found between two stiff layers in the vertically heterogeneous media, and it can affect the wave propagation dramatically. Now most of the surface wave techniques use the fundamental mode Rayleigh wave propagation during the inversion, but this may not be the actual scenario when a soft layer is present in a vertically layered medium. This paper presents a detailed and comprehensive study using finite element method to examine the effect of soft layers which sometimes get trapped between two high velocity layers. Determination of the presence of a soft layer is quite important for proper mechanical characterization of a soil deposit. Present analysis shows that the thickness and position of the trapped soft layer highly influence the dispersion of Rayleigh waves while the higher modes also contribute in the resulting wave propagation.

This study investigates a new optimal placement method for viscous dampers between structures in order to prevent pounding of adjacent structures with different dynamic characteristics under earthquake effects. A relative displacement spectrum is developed in two single degree of freedom system to reveal the critical period ratios for the most risky scenario of collision using El Centro earthquake record (NS). Three different types of viscous damper design, which are classical, stair and X-diagonal model, are considered to prevent pounding on two adjacent building models. The objective function is minimized under the upper and lower limits of the damping coefficient of the damper and a target modal damping ratio. A new algorithm including time history analyses and numerical optimization methods is proposed to find the optimal dampers placement. The proposed design method is tested on two 12-storey adjacent building models. The effects of the type of damper placement on structural models, the critical period ratios of adjacent structures, the permissible relative displacement limit, the mode behavior and the upper limit of damper are investigated in detail. The results of the analyzes show that the proposed method can be used as an effective means of finding the optimum amount and location of the dampers and eliminating the risk of pounding.
