본 연구에서는 지진에 대한 고층건물의 응답특성, 그리고 지진응답에 미치는 중력하중의 영향과 중력하중의 영향이 내진설계에 미치는 중요성을 산정하였다. 이를 위해서 예제 구조물에 대한 정적해석 및 지진하중에 대한 동적해석을 하였다. 지진에 대한 고층건물의 지진응답 특성을 파악하기 위하여 비탄성 변형의 건물 높이에 따른 분포를 알아보았다. 지진이 발생하면 휨모멘트 요구도가 건물의 상부층보다 하부층에서 상대적으로 더 많이 증가해서 설계모멘트와의 차이가 건물의 하부층으로 갈수록 더 커진다. 그 결과 현재 쓰이는 내진설계방법에 따라 설계된 예제 건물들은 지진에 대하여 비탄성 응답이 건물의 각 층마다 서로 다르게 발생하는데 주로 건물의 하부층에서 큰 비탄성 응답이 발생한다. 또한 설계시에 고려된 중력하중 때문에 구조적 손상이 건물의 꼭대기 층에서 아래로 갈수록 크게 증가한다. 구조물의 지진응답에 관하여 중력하중은 보의 항복시간을 앞당기며, 보의 양단의 소성힌지에 각기 다른 비탄성 거동을 유발시킨다. 그러나 중력하중에 의한 초기 휨모멘트의 영향은 보가 비탄성 거동을 계속함에 따라 재분배되어 보의 양단에서 그 영향이 감소되며 비탄성 변형이 계속되면 크게 감소한다. 중력하중에 의한 초기 휨모멘트의 영향이 감소는 고층건물의 내진설계에 있어서 중력하중의 영향이 주는 의미는 기둥과 보의 휨강도를 결정할 때 현재의 방법보다 중력하중의 영향을 줄이고 지진하중의 영향을 증가시켜야 한다는 것이다.

In earthquake structural engineering towards a better understanding of both the earthquake ground motion and structural response, the design of concrete structures to resist strong ground input motions is not a simple matter, and analytical models for such structures must be developed from a design perspective that accounts for the complexities of the structural responses. The primary objective earthquake structural engineering research is to ensure the safety of structures by understanding and improving a design menthodology. Ideally, this would require the development of an analytical model related to a design methodology that ensures a dectile performance. For the accurate assessment of the adequacy of analytically developed model, experiments conducted to study the inplane inelastic cyclic behavior of structures should verify the analytical approach. The paper is to demonstrate experimentally verified analytical method that provide the adequate degree of safety and confidience in the behavior of R.C. structural components and further attempts to extend the developed modeling technique for use by practicing structural engineers.

Inverted V (or chevron) braced steel frames have been seen as being highly prone to soft story response once the compression brace buckles under earthquake loading. To salvage chevron braced frames. the concept of the zipper column was proposed many years ago such that the zipper column can redistribute the inelastic demand over the height of the building. However. rational design method for the zipper column has not been established yet. In this paper, a new dynamic design method for the zipper column was proposed by combining the refined physical braced model and modal pushover analysis. Inelastic dynamic analysis conducted on 6 story building model showed that the proposed method was more superior to the existing static design method and was very effective in improving seismic performance of chevron braced steel frames.

An improved procedure for earthquake resistant design of multistory building structures is proposed in this study. The effect of gravity load on seismic response of structures is evaluated through nonlinear dynamic analyses of a single story example structure. The presence of gravity load tends to initiate plastic hinge formation in earlier stage of a strong earthquake. However, the effect of gravity load seems to disapper as ground motion is getting stronger. And one of shortcomings in current earthquake resistant codes is overestimation of gravity load effects when earthquake load is applied at the same time so that it may leads to less inelastic deformation or structural damage in upper stories, and inelastic deformation is increased in lower stories. Based on these observation, an improved procedure for earthquake resistant design is derived by reducing the factor for gravity load and inceasing that for seismic load. Structures designed by the proposed design procedure turned out to have increased safety and stability against strong earthquakes.

Recent investigations have pointed out that current code provisions specifying that the stiffness of reinforced concrete elements is strength independent, and therefore can be estimated prior to any strength assignment, is incorrect. A strength allocation strategy, suitable for preliminary structural design of medium height wall-frame dual systems, is presented for allocating strength in such buildings and estimating the dependable rigidities. The design process may be implemented by either the approximate continuous approach or the stiffness matrix method. It is based on the concept of the inelastic equivalent single-degree-of-freedom system which, the last few years, has been used to implement the performance based seismic design. The aforesaid strategy may also be used to determine structural configurations of minimum rotation distortion. It is shown that when the location of the modal centre of rigidity, as described in author's recent papers, is within a close distance from the mass axis the torsional response is mitigated. The methodology is illustrated in ten story building configurations, whose torsional response is examined under the ground motion of Kobe 1995, component KJM000.

The inelastic earthquake response of non-symmetric, braced steel buildings, designed according to the EC3 (steel structures) and EC8 (earthquake resistant design) codes, is investigated using 1, 3 and 5-story models, subjected to a set of 10, two-component, semi-artificial motions, generated to match the design spectrum. It is found that in these buildings, the so-called "flexible" edge frames exhibit higher ductility demands and interstory drifts than the "stiff" edge frames. We note that the same results were reported in an earlier study for reinforced concrete buildings and are the opposite of what was predicted in several other studies based on the over simplified, hence very popular, one-story, shear-beam type models. The substantial differences in such demands between the two sides suggest a need for reassessment of the pertinent code provisions. In a follow up paper, a design modification will be introduced that can lead to a more uniform distribution of ductility demands in the elements of all building edges. This investigation is another step towards more rational design of non-symmetric steel buildings.

LMFBR(Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor) vessel is operated under the high temperatures of 500-550.deg. C. Thus, transient thermal loads were severe enough to cause inelastic deformation due to creep-fatigue and plasticity. For reduction of such inelastic deformations, Y-piece structure in the form of a thermal sleeve is used in LMFBR vessel under repeated start-up, service and shut-down conditions. Therefore, a systematic method for inelastic analysis is needed for design of the Y-piece structure subjected to such loading conditions. In the present investigation, finite element analysis of heat transfer and inelastic thermal stress were carried out for the Y-piece structure in LMFBR vessel under service conditions. For such analysis, ABAQUS program was employed based on the elasto-plastic and Chaboche viscoplastic constitutive equations. Based on numerical data obtained from the analysis, creep-fatigue damage estimation according to ASME Code Case N-47 was made and compared to each other. Finally, it was found out that the numerical predictio of damage level due to creep based on Chaboche unified viscoplastic constitutive equation was relatively better compared to elasto-plastic constitutive formulation.

The problem of earthquake induced torsion in buildings is quite old and although it has received a lot of attention in the past several decades, it is still open. This is evident not only from the variability of the pertinent provisions in various modern codes but also from conflicting results debated in the literature. Most of the conducted research on this problem has been based on very simplified, highly idealized models of eccentric one-story systems, with single or double eccentricity and with load bearing elements of the shear beam type, sized only for earthquake action. Initially, elastic models were used but were gradually replaced by inelastic models, since building response under design level earthquakes is expected to be inelastic. Code provisions till today have been based mostly on results from one-story inelastic models or on results from elastic multistory idealizations. In the past decade, however, more accurate multi story inelastic building response has been studied using the well-known and far more accurate plastic hinge model for flexural members. On the basis of such research some interesting conclusions have been drawn, revising older views about the inelastic response of buildings based on one-story simplified model results. The present paper traces these developments and presents new findings that can explain long lasting controversies in this area and at the same time may raise questions about the adequacy of code provisions based on results from questionable models. To organize this review better it was necessary to group the various publications into a number of subtopics and within each subtopic to separate them into smaller groups according to the basic assumptions and/or limitations used. Capacity assessment of irregular buildings and new technologies to control torsional motion have also been included.

원전 격납건물은 내진 안정성을 확보하기 위해 설계단계에서 여유나 보수성을 부여하게 된다. 원전 구조물의 내진성능 평가는 이러한 여유나 보수성을 배제한 실질적인 성능 및 응답을 기준으로 평가하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 내진성능 평가에 고려되는 구조물의 성능 및 응답관련 계수들 중 그 기여도가 비교적 큰 비탄성 에너지 흡수계수의 산정방법에 대한 비교를 수행하였다. 또한 각종 방법에 따라 산정된 비탄성 에너지 흡수계수에 따른 HCLPF(high confidence of low probability of failure)값의 변화를 분석하였다. 연구결과 원전 격납건물의 비탄성 에너지 흡수계수는 1.5~1.75로 나타났다. 구조물의 내진성능을 명확히 평가하기 위해서는 먼저 구조물의 비선형 거동 및 연성도를 정확히 평가하여야 함을 알 수 있다.
