Piston cores retrieved from the western Ulleung Basin, East Sea were analyzed to examine the potential for hydrocarbon generation and to determine the hydrocarbon indicators. 2D multi-channel reflection seismic and Chirp data were also investigated for mapping and characterizing the geophysical hydrocarbon indicators such as BSR (bottom simulating reflector), blank zone, pock-mark etc. High organic carbon contents and sedimentation rates that suggest good condition for hydrocarbon generation. High pressure and low temperature condition, and high residual hydrocarbon concentrations are favor the formation of natural gas hydrate. In the piston cores, cracks generally oriented to bedding may indicate the gas expansion. The seismic data show several BSRs that are associated with natural gas hydrates and underlying free gas. A number of vertical to sub-vertical blank zones were well identified in the seismic sections. They often show the seismic pull-up structures, probably indicating the presence of high velocity hydrates. Numerous pockmarks were also observed in the Chirp profiles. They may indicate the presence of free gas below the hydrate stability zone as well.

Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, has seen a boom in construction in recent years. The old Baku city has been rapidly transforming into a new hub of high-rise buildings and lively cultural centers hosting the Euro Vision Song Contest in 2012 and European Games in 2015. A major population shift to Baku from its suburbs and the countryside has resulted in the doubling of Baku's population in the 4 years between 2009 and 2013. As of January 2013, Baku's population reached four million people, 43% of the citizens in Azerbaijan according to The State Statistical Committee of Azerbaijan. With this trend, the city needs more high-rise buildings to accommodate rapidly increasing demands for more housing and business space. Until the Azerbaijan Seismic Building Code was published in 2010 and became effective, many different seismic criteria, in terms of building codes and seismic intensities, were used for all new high-rise projects in Baku. Some designers used the SNIP (Russian) code with seismic level 9 or level 8 with 1 point penalty. Others used the Turkish code with Seismic Zone 1, UBC 97 with Zone 2 through 4, or IBC with Sa = 0.75 g through 1.0 g. The seismic intensity is now clarified with the Azerbaijan Seismic Building Code. However, the Azerbaijan Seismic Building Code is appropriate for low-rise buildings applications but may be inappropriate for high-rise project applications. This is because the code-defined response spectrum yields unrealistically conservative seismic forces for high-rise buildings with long periods, as compared to those determined by other internationally accepted building codes. This paper provides observations and recommendations for code-based seismic load assessment of high-rise buildings in the Baku area.

한국의 원자력발전소 부근에서 발생한 최근 지진으로 한반도 남동부에 위치한 울산단층대의 지진활동에 사회적 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이 단층대의 지하구조를 규명하기 위하여, 울산시 북쪽의 동천강 계곡에서 고분해능 탄성파 굴절법 및 반사법 탐사와 조밀한 간격의 중력탐사를 실시하였다. 이 지역에는 폭 약 1 km인 계곡 내의 충적층 하부에 단층대가 남북방향으로 놓여있다. 24채널 탄성파 굴절법 및 반사법 자료는 타격점과 수신점이 공히 5 m 간격으로, 길이 835 m와 415 m인 두 측선을 따라 기록하였다. 중력도 이 두 측선을 따라 10 m 간격으로 131점에서 측정하였다. 탄성파 굴절법 자료, 고분해능 반사법 자료, 중력 측정자료 등을 이용한 종합적 해석은 이 울산단층대가 백악기에 겉보기 남북방향의 주향이동 운동으로 형성되었고, 어떤 단층들은 신생대 3기 혹은 4기에 동서방향의 압축응력에 의하여 재활성되었을 가능성을 지시한다.

The Performance-based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE) concept implies the definition of multiple target performance levels of damage which are expected to be achieved (or not exceeded), when the structure is subjected to earthquake ground motion of specified intensity. These levels are associates to different return period (RP) of earthquakes and structural behaviors quantified with adopted factors or indexes of control. In this work an 8-level PBEE study is carried out, finding different curves for control index or Engineering Demand Parameters (EDP) of levels that assess the structural behavior. The results and the curves for each index of control allow to deduce the structural behavior at an a priori unspecified RP. A general methodology is proposed that takes into account a possible optimization process in the PBEE field. Finally, an application to 8-level seismic performance assessment to structure in a Spanish seismic zone permits deducing that its behavior is deficient for high seismic levels (RP > 475 years). The application of the methodology to a low-to-moderate seismic zone case proves to be a good tool of structural seismic design, applying a more sophisticated although simple PBEE formulation.

Seismic capacity of reinforced concrete bearing wall subjected to high axial loading and moment can be attained by improving the deformability of compression zone or by reducing the neutral axis depth. For this two existing options for ductility enhancement were reviewed and improved to conveniently apply to the seismic improvement of compression zone of the wall: (1) end confinement of concrete due to transverse steel and (2) boundary element.

미국 오하이오주에 있는 Grenville Front의 위치와 특성을 이해하기 위하여 중자력, 탄성파 및 지질자료를 이용한 지구물리학적 연구를 수행하였다. 탄성파 자료에 의하면 서부 오하이오에서의 기반암은 Grenville Front와 관계가 있는 동쪽으로 경사를 이루는 반사면으로 나타나고 이에 반하여 동부 오하이오에서는 서쪽으로 경사를 이루는 반사면이 나타난다. 중자력 자료 분석에 의하면 Grenville Front는 저중력 이상으로 그리고 Grenville Front Tectonic Zone은 고중력 및 고자력 이상으로 특징 지워진다. 탄성파 자료를 근거로 수행한 중자력 모델링 결과는 Grenville Front위치에서 하부지각은 두껍고 Grenville Front Tectonic Zone은 주로 변성도가 높은 변성암으로 구성된다는 것을 제안한다. Grenville Front 위치에서 저중력 이상은 두터운 지각 두께 때문에, 반면에 고자력 이상은 변성도가 높은 변성암들의 존재 때문인 것으로 해석된다. Grenville Front 바로 동쪽의 오하이오 중앙부에서 나타나는 고중력 이상은 밀도가 높은 하부 및 중부 지각이 상부지각으로 트러스팅 (thrusting) 되었기 때문이다. 과거 연구에서는 이 고중력 이상이 선캄브리아대의 열 개지역과 관계된다고 하였는데 이를 뒷받침할 만한 근거는 없다.

가스 하이드레이트의 탐사에서 탄성파 진폭과 주파수 특성은 가스 하이드레이트의 부존 여부에 대한 매우 중요한 판단 근거이다. 본 연구에서 탄성파 진폭특성은 탄성파 수치모델링 기법을 이용하여 음원 주파수 및 산란체의 크기에 따른 변화 양상을 파악하고자 하였다. 일반적으로 진폭에 큰 영향을 미치는 산란은 음원의 주파수 제곱에 비례하고 산란 이상체의 체적에 비례한다. 음원의 주파수가 높아질수록 가스 하이드레이트 지층에서의 산란이 심하여 BSR이 잘 나타나지 않는 반면 음원의 주파수가 낮아질수록 가스 하이드레이트 지층의 진폭공백대 특성이 잘 나타나고 또한 하부의 BSR이 보다 뚜렷히 보이나 해상도가 낮아지게 된다. 가스 하이드레이트 지층 하부의 Free-Gas층을 통과한 반사파는 고주파수 성분이 감쇠되어 저주파수 성분이 우세해지고, Free-Gas로 인하여 나타나는 BSR의 진폭은 극성역전현상이 발생되며 이것은 가스 하이드레이트 지층의 존재와 분포를 판단하는 중요한 인자가 된다. 탄성파 주파수 특성 분석은 Wavelet Transform을 이용하여 시간에 따른 탄성파동의 주파수 변화를 관찰하는 방법을 사용하였다. 탄성파 모형 실험 자료에 대하여 적용한 결과 Free-Gas층에 대비되는 공기층을 통과하여 반사된 탄성파의 주파수는 고주파수 성분이 상당히 감쇠되었음을 관찰할 수 있었다.

To study seismic performance of steel frame-bent structure, one specimen with one-tenth scale, three-bay, and five-story was tested under reversed cyclic lateral load. The entire loading process and failure mode were observed, and the seismic performance indexes including hysteretic loops, skeleton curve, ductility, load bearing capacity, drift ratio, energy dissipation capacity and stiffness degradation were analyzed. The results show that the steel frame-bent structure has good seismic performance. And the ductility and the energy dissipation capacity were good, the hysteresis loops were in spindle shape, which shape were full and had larger area. The ultimate elastic-plastic drift ratio is larger than the limit value specified by seismic code, showing the high capacity of collapse resistance. It can be helpful to design this kind of structure in high-risk seismic zone.

This study focuses on seismic behaviour of tall piers characterized by high slender ratio. Two analysis models were developed based on elastic-plastic hinged beam element and elastic-plastic fiber beam element, respectively. The effect of the division density of elastic-plastic hinged beam element on seismic demand was discussed firstly to seek a rational analysis model for tall piers. Then structural seismic behaviour such as the formation of plastic hinges, the development of plastic zone, and the displacement at the top of the tall piers were investigated through incremental dynamic analysis. It showed that the seismic behaviour of a tall pier was quite different from that of a lower pier due to higher modes contributions. In a tall pier, an additional plastic zone may occur at the middle height of the pier with the increase of seismic excitation. Moreover, the maximum curvature reaction at the bottom section and maximum lateral displacement at the top turned out to be seriously out of phase for a tall pier due to the higher modes effect, and thus pushover analysis can not appropriately predict the local displacement capacity.

Gas hydrate has been paid attention to study for because: 1) it can be considered as a new energy resources; 2) one of reasons causing the instability of sea floor slope and 3) a factor to the climate change. Bottom simulating reflector (BSR) defined as seismic boundary between the gas hydrate and free gas zone has been considered as the most common evidence in the seismic reflection data for the gas hydrate exploration. BSR has several characteristics such as parallel to the sea bottom, high amplitude, reducing interval velocity between above and below BSR and reversing phase to the sea bottom. Moreover, instantaneous attribute properties such as amplitude envelop, instantaneous frequency, phase and first derivative of amplitude of seismic data from the complex analysis could be used to analyze properties of BSR those would be added to the certain properties of BSR in order to effectively find out the existence of BSR of the gas hydrate stability zone. The output of conventional seismic data processing for gas hydrate data set in Ulleung basin in the East sea of Korea will be used for complex analyses to indicate better BSR in the seismic reflection data. This result of this analysis implies that the BSR of the analyzed seismic profile is clearly located at the two ways time (TWT) of around 3.1 seconds.
