원자력발전소에는 전력생산과 안전과 관련된 수많은 기기들이 존재하고 있다. 기본적으로 원자력발전소의 구조물과 기기는 지진시 탄성거동올 목표로 안전율을 매우 높게 적용하여 설계해 왔다. 그러나 최근 발생한 지진의 규모가 증가함에 따라 설계수준을 초과한 지진에 대한 기기의 안전성을 재평가할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 구조물의 비선형 거동에 의한 층응답을 분석하였고, 비선형해석에 의한 구조물의 비탄성구조응답계수를 재평가하였다. 기기의 지진취약도 평가시 구조물의 비탄성구조응답이 어떤 영향을 주는지 분석하기 위하여 재평가된 구조물의 비탄성구조응답계수와 기존에 사용되어온 구조물 비탄성구조응답계수를 적용하여 지진취약도 평가를 수행하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 비탄성구조응답계수는 기기의 고유진동수, 기기의 위치 그리고 구조물의 동특성에 따라 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, the accuracy and reliability of fully nonlinear method against equivalent linear method for dynamic analysis of soil-structure interaction is investigated comparing the predicted results of both numerical procedures with the results of experimental shaking table tests. An enhanced numerical soil-structure model has been developed which treats the behaviour of the soil and the structure with equal rigour. The soil-structural model comprises a 15 storey structural model resting on a soft soil inside a laminar soil container. The structural model was analysed under three different conditions: (i) fixed base model performing conventional time history dynamic analysis, (ii) flexible base model (considering full soil-structure interaction) conducting equivalent linear dynamic analysis, and (iii) flexible base model performing fully nonlinear dynamic analysis. The results of the above mentioned three cases in terms of lateral storey deflections and inter-storey drifts are determined and compared with the experimental results of shaking table tests. Comparing the experimental results with the numerical analysis predictions, it is noted that equivalent linear method of dynamic analysis underestimates the inelastic seismic response of mid-rise moment resisting building frames resting on soft soils in comparison to the fully nonlinear dynamic analysis method. Thus, inelastic design procedure, using equivalent linear method, cannot adequately guarantee the structural safety for mid-rise building frames resting on soft soils. However, results obtained from the fully nonlinear method of analysis fit the experimental results reasonably well. Therefore, this method is recommended to be used by practicing engineers.

지진하중과 같은 횡하중에 대하여 교량구조물의 아칭작용은 교대 사이의 상부구조에 의해 발생하며 이를 상부구조의 저항능력이라고도 한다. 교량구조물의 아칭작용의 크기는 경간의 수에 영향을 받으며 또한 상부구조, 교대와 교각의 연결조건 및 상부구조와 하부구조의 강성비에도 영향을 받는다. 프리캐스트 콘크리트 상자형 교량의 비탄성 지진응답에 대한 아칭작용의 영향을 분석하기 위하여 경간수에 따른 두 가지 종류의 예제교량(교량 SB와 교량 LB), 교각의 높이의 배열에 따른 세가지 종류(대칭, 비대칭)의 교량, 상부구조와 하부구조의 연결조건에 따른 세가지 교량(형식 A, B, C)등에 대한 구분을 조합하여 18가지 종류의 예제구조물을 작성하였으며, 이 예제구조물들에 대하여 역량스펙트럼해석, 비탄성 시간이력해석을 수행하여 지진응답을 비교하여 아칭작용의 영향을 분석하였다. 아칭작용의 영향(최대변위의 감소와 저항능력의 증가)은 교량 SB(short bridge)의 경우가 교량 LB(long bridge) 보다 크게 나타났으며 대칭교량의 경우가 비대칭교량에 비하여 크게 나타남을 알수 있었다.

The structural members under seismic loading actually show inelastic behavior, so the inelastic responses should be calculated for the seismic design of structures or estimating the structural damage level. Although direct time history analysis may calculate the exact dynamic nonlinear responses for given ground motions, this approach involves a high computational cost and long period. Therefore, it should be developed the approach to estimate nonlinear responses for the practical purpose. The artificial earthquake accelerograms were generated to obtain the smoothed responses spectra, and the samples of generated accelerogram for each seismic event was used to examine average nonlinear response spectra. The stabilized response spectra for each earthquake event was used to evaluate the effects of various yield strength ratios, damping values and nonlinear hysteretic models. The approach, which can simply predict the nonlinear seismic responses of structures, was shown in this study.

The energy dissipation or damage prevention capability of structure can be greatly enhanced by employing hysteretic dampers. According to recent studies by the authors, the ratio of hysteretic damper stiffness to structural story stiffness has been identified as one of the most important parameters for characterizing the performance of this damper In this study the method for determining appropriate properties of hysteretic dampers to satisfy the given performance objectives is developed based on the concept of capacity spectrum method. The comparison with the results from inelastic time history analysis proves that the hysteretic dampers designed from the proposed method restrains the displacement well within the target displacement.

Multi-span steel-concrete composite (SCC) bridges are very sensitive to earthquake loading. Extensive damage may occur not only in the substructures (piers), which are expected to yield, but also in the other components (e.g., deck, abutments) involved in carrying the seismic loads. Current seismic codes allow the design of regular bridges by means of linear elastic analysis based on inelastic design spectra. In bridges with superstructure transverse motion restrained at the abutments, a dual load path behavior is observed. The sequential yielding of the piers can lead to a substantial change in the stiffness distribution. Thus, force distributions and displacement demand can significantly differ from linear elastic analysis predictions. The objectives of this study are assessing the influence of piers-deck stiffness ratio and of soil-structure interaction effects on the seismic behavior of continuous SCC bridges with dual load path, and evaluating the suitability of linear elastic analysis in predicting the actual seismic behavior of these bridges. Parametric analysis results are presented and discussed for a common bridge typology. The response dependence on the parameters is studied by nonlinear multi-record incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). Comparisons are made with linear time history analysis results. The results presented suggest that simplified linear elastic analysis based on inelastic design spectra could produce very inaccurate estimates of the structural behavior of SCC bridges with dual load path.

The evaluation of the accumulation of permanent set for inelastic structures due to wind action is important in establishing a criterion to select a reduced design wind load and in incorporating the beneficial ductile behaviour in wind engineering. A parametric study of the accumulation of the permanent set as well as the ductility demand for bilinear single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems is presented in the present study. The dynamic analysis of the inelastic SDOF system is carried out using the method of Newmark for artificially generated time history of wind speed. Simulation results indicate that the mean of the normalized damage rate is highly dependent on the natural frequency of vibration. This mean value is relatively insensitive to the damping ratio if the damping ratio is larger than 5%. The scatter associated with the accumulation of the permanent set is very significant. The consideration of the postyield stiffness can significantly reduce the accumulation of the permanent set if the ratio of the yield strength to the expected peak response is small. The results also show that the ductility demand due to the wind action over a period of one hour for flexible structures can be much less than that for rigid structures or structures with larger damping ratio if the SDOF systems are designed with a reduced peak response caused by the fluctuating wind.

In traditional eccentrically braced steel frames, damages and plastic deformations are limited to the links and the main structure members are required tremendous sizes to ensure elasticity with no damage based on the force-based seismic design method, this limits the practical application of the structure. The high strength steel frames with eccentric braces refer to Q345 (the nominal yield strength is 345 MPa) steel used for links, and Q460 steel utilized for columns and beams in the eccentrically brace steel frames, the application of high strength steels not only brings out better economy and higher strength, but also wider application prospects in seismic fortification zone. Here, the structures with four type eccentric braces are chosen, including K-type, Y-type, D-type and V-type. These four types EBFs have various performances, such as stiffness, bearing capacity, ductility and failure mode. To evaluate the seismic behavior of the high strength steel frames with variable eccentric braces within the similar performance objectives, four types EBFs with 4-storey, 8-storey, 12-storey and 16-storey were designed by performance-based seismic design method. The nonlinear static behavior by pushover analysis and dynamic performance by time history analysis in the SAP2000 software was applied. A total of 11 ground motion records are adopted in the time history analysis. Ground motions representing three seismic hazards: first, elastic behavior in low earthquake hazard level for immediate occupancy, second, inelastic behavior of links in moderate earthquake hazard level for rapid repair, and third, inelastic behavior of the whole structure in very high earthquake hazard level for collapse prevention. The analyses results indicated that all structures have similar failure mode and seismic performance.
