대부분의 구조물들은 강한 지진을 받을 경우, 비선형 거동의 변형이 예상된다. 구조물의 내진평가는 구조물에 가해진 지진력에 대한 변위요구와 같은 구조물의 성능평가를 필요로 한다. 여러 가지 비선형해석법 가운데 구조물의 내진역량을 계산하기 위한 가장 정확한 방법은 비선형 시각이력해석(NRHA)이긴 하나 많은 시간과 노력이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 구조물의 비선형 거동을 보다 간편하게 예측하기 위한 정확하고 실용적인 비선형 약산해석법에 관한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 일부 약산적 방법 중 능력스펙트럼법(CSM)은 개념적으로는 간단하나 반복적인 계산과정과 함께 때로는 해가 없거나 중복적인 해를 갖는 약점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강성골격곡선으로부터 산정한 구조물의 초기 탄성진동주기 T와 응답스펙트럼으로부터 산정한 비선형 유사가속도 h$_{y}$ /g 및 연성비 $\mu$를 사용하여, 반복적인 계산과정 없이 복합구조물의 내진성능을 평가하는 비선형 직접스펙트럼법(NDSM)을 고려한다. 다양한 지진과 복합구조물에 대한 NDSM의 신뢰성과 실용성을 비선형 시각이력해석(NRHA) 결과와 비교함으로써 검토하였다.

Applying nonlinear statistical analysis methods in estimating the performance of structures in earthquakes is strongly considered these days. This is due to the methods' simplicity, timely lower cost and reliable estimation in seismic responses in comparison with time-history nonlinear dynamic analysis. Among nonlinear methods, simplified to be incorporated in the future guidelines, Modal Pushover Analysis, known by the abbreviated name of MPA, simply models nonlinear behavior of structures; and presents a very proper estimation of nonlinear dynamic analysis using lateral load pattern appropriate to the mass. Mostly, two kinds of connecting joints, 'hinge' and 'rigid', are carried out in different type of steel structures. However, it should be highly considered that nominal hinge joints usually experience some percentages of fixity and nominal rigid connections do not employ totally rigid. Therefore, concerning the importance of these structures and the significant flexibility effect of connections on force distribution and elements deformation, these connections can be considered as semi-rigid with various percentages of fixity. Since it seems, the application and implementation of MPA method has not been studied on moment-resistant steel frames with semi rigid connections, this research focuses on this topic and issue. In this regard several rigid and semi-rigid steel bending frames with different percentages of fixity are selected. The structural design is performed based on weak beam and strong column. Followed by that, the MPA method is used as an approximated method and Nonlinear Response History Analysis (NL-RHA) as the exact one. Studying the performance of semi-rigid frames in height shows that MPA technique offers reasonably reliable results in these frames. The methods accuracy seems to decrease, when the number of stories increases and does decrease in correlation with the semi-rigidity percentages. This generally implies that the method can be used as a proper device in seismic estimation of different types of low and mid-rise buildings with semi-rigid connections.

There has been an increasing trend toward the use of pushover analysis as a tool for evaluating the seismic resistant and safety of a building structure in the performance based earthquake engineering field. The ATC-40 document proposed a nonlinear static procedure based on the Capacity Spectrum Method to determine earthquake-induced demand given the structure pushover curve, which a curve representing base shear versus roof displacement. However, the procedure is conceptually simple, iterative and time consuming method and may sometimes lead to no solution or multiple solutions. A new improved method of seismic performance evaluation for moment frame building, which take into account the previously mentioned deficiencies of currently used elastic design procedures, is presented in this paper. The results of nonlinear static and nonlinear time history analysis of an example high-rise steel moment frame designed by the proposed method are presented and discussed.

본 연구는 Modal Pushover Analysis(MPA)를 기반으로 비탄성 변위비(inelastic displacement ratio, $C_R$)와 붕괴 강도비(collapse strength ratio, $R_C$)를 이용한 간략한 Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) 해석법을 제안해 냈다. 이 해석법은 선형 또는 비선형 동적해석 수행 없이 다자유도 시스템의 응답을 계산하기 때문에 간단하게 IDA곡선을 얻을 수 있다. 제안한 방법의 정확성은 6층, 9층, 20층의 철골 모멘트 골조를 대상으로 44개의 지진데이터를 사용하였으며 본 연구에서 제안하는 MPA를 이용한 $C_R-R_C$ IDA 해석결과와 비선형 동적해석 (Nonlinear Response History Analysis)을 통한 IDA 응답값, 그리고 각 주요모드의 비선형 동적해석을 통한 MPA-IDA 응답 값을 비교하여 타당성을 확인하였다. MPA를 이용한 $C_R-R_C$ IDA 해석법은 반복된 비선형 동적해석 과정이 없기 때문에 계산시 소요시간이 가장 작았으며 비교적 정확한 결과를 나타냈다.

구조물의 지진응답은 기초지반조건의 영향을 받는다. 이 연구에서는 고정지반과 연약지반을 고려한 3, 5, 7층 철골 건축구조물의 밑면전단력을 산정하기 위해 선형 시간이력지진해석과 비선형 Pushover 정적지진해석을 수행하였다. 등가정적강성식으로 구한 기초지반강성은 SAP2000의 Link 요소 중 Damper 요소를 사용하여 입력하였다. 범용구조해석 프로그램 SAP2000에 의한 시간이력으로 구한 철골건축구조물의 밑면전단력을 국내내진설계기준, UBC-97 설계응답스펙트럼, Pushover 정적 비선형해석으로 구한 밑면전단력과 비교하였다. 중력하중과 풍하중으로 설계된 철골 건축구조물은 0.11g의 중진에 대해 탄성응답을 보였고, 탄성 연약지반에서 구조물-지반의 상호작용과 지반 증폭에 의해 구조물의 변위와 밑면전단력이 증가되었다. 따라서, 중약진 지역에서의 건축구조물은 연약지반의 특성을 고려하여 탄성지진해석을 수행하는 것이 더 합리적이다.

Numerical modeling for the safety-related equipment used in a nuclear power plant (i.e., cabinet facilities) plays an essential role in seismic risk assessment. A full finite element model is often time-consuming for nonlinear time history analysis due to its computational modeling complexity. Thus, this study aims to generate a simplified model that can capture the nonlinear behavior of the electrical cabinet. Accordingly, the distributed plasticity approach was utilized to examine the stiffness-degradation effect caused by the local buckling of the structure. The inherent dynamic characteristics of the numerical model were validated against the experimental test. The outcomes indicate that the proposed model can adequately represent the significant behavior of the structure, and it is preferred in practice to perform the nonlinear analysis of the cabinet. Further investigations were carried out to evaluate the seismic behavior of the cabinet under the influence of the constitutive law of material models. Three available models in OpenSees (i.e., linear, bilinear, and Giuffre-Menegotto-Pinto (GMP) model) were considered to provide an enhanced understating of the seismic responses of the cabinet. It was found that the material nonlinearity, which is the function of its smoothness, is the most effective parameter for the structural analysis of the cabinet. Also, it showed that implementing nonlinear models reduces the seismic response of the cabinet considerably in comparison with the linear model.

구조물의 내진 성능 평가는 구조물에 가해진 지진력에 대한 변위요구와 같은 구조물의 성능 평가를 필요로 한다. 증분동적해석(IDA)은 지진하중에 대한구조물의 성능 평가를 위해 최근에 알려진 해석 방법이다. 이 방법은 구조물의 탄성 단계에서부터 항복, 파단에 이르기까지 지반가속도의 증가 수준에 따른 구조물의 전체 거동을 파악할 수 있는 방법이다. 대부분의 구조물들은 강한 지진을 받을 경우, 비선형 거동의 변형이 예상된다. 여러 가지 비선형해석법 가운데 구조물의 내진역량을 계산하기 위한 가장 정확한 방법은 비선형 시간이력해석(NRHA)이긴 하나 많은 시간과 노력이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 구조물의 비선형 거동을 보다 간편하게 예측하기 위한 정확하고 실용적인 비선형 약산해석법에 관한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 비선형 모드중첩법(UMRHA)은 pushover곡선으로부터 구한 등가단자유도계를 비선형 시간이력해석 또는 응답스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 비선형 응답을 구할 수 있는 방법이다. 직접스펙트럼해석법(DSA)은 pushover 해석으로부터 구조물의 선형 진동주기와 항복강도를 구한 다음, 반복계산 없이 비선형 응답을 직접 산정하는 약산법이다. 본 연구에서는 내진성능의 증분동적해석을 위한 비선형 약산법의 정확성과 신뢰성을 비교 검토한다.

Numerical damage assessment of Van train station building consisting of three RC blocks due to 2011 Van Earthquakes by nonlinear dynamic analysis is presented. The structural model is created with rigid-end offsets and plastic hinges for nonlinear analysis. Rigid-end offsets are considered for connection areas and proposed for wall-supported elements. In wall-supported elements, walls take place in a limited part of the columns. Nonlinear dynamic analysis of the building with and without rigid-end offsets is performed by using real earthquake records and results are compared. The results show that rigid-end offsets have significant effects on the seismic behavior of the structures.

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures require advanced analysis techniques for better estimation of their seismic responses, especially in the case of exhibiting complex three-dimensional coupling of torsional and flexural behaviors. This study focuses on validating a numerical approach for evaluating the seismic response of a three-dimensional unsymmetrical RC structure through the participation in the SMART 2013 international benchmark program. The benchmark program provides material properties, detailed drawings of the RC structure, and input ground motions for the seismic response evaluation. In this study, nonlinear constitutive models of concrete and rebar were formed and local tests were conducted to verify the constitutive models in finite element analysis. Elastic calibration of the finite element model of the SMART 2013 RC structure was performed by comparing numerical and experimental results in modal and linear time history analyses. Using the calibrated model, nonlinear earthquake analysis and seismic fragility analysis were performed to estimate the behavior and vulnerability of the RC structure with various ground motions.

The damping effect of a Concrete-filled Rectangular Steel Tube (CRST) frame structure is studied in this paper. Viscous dampers are employed to insure the function of the building especially subjected to earthquakes, for some of the main vertical elements of the building are not continuous. The shaking table test of a 1:15 scale model was conducted under different earthquake excitations to recognize the seismic behavior of this building. And the vibration damping effect was also investigated by the shaking table test and the simulation analysis. The nonlinear time-history analysis of the shaking table test model was carried out by the finite element analysis program CANNY. The simulation model was constructed in accordance with the tested one and was analyzed under the same loading condition and the simulation effect was then validated by the tested results. Further more, the simulation analysis of the prototype structure was carried out by the same procedure. Both the simulated and tested results indicate that there are no obvious weak stories on the damping equipped structure, and the dampers can provide the probability of an irregular CRST frame structure to meet the requirements of the design code on energy dissipation and deformation limitation.
