교량의 내진성능을 파악하기 위해서는 대상 교량에 대한 내진성능평가 및 수치해석을 통해 검토하는 것이 일반적이다. 내진성능평가 및 수치해석을 통한 검토는 특정 대상교량에 대한 분석 방법으로 전국 교량을 관리하는 각각의 관리주체에서 이를 수행하기에는 많은 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 다양한 형식 및 특성을 지니고 있는 공용 교량에 대한 내진성능을 추정할 수 있도록 연구를 수행하였다. 내진성능 추정은 지진위험도평가 방법을 적용하였으며, 교량의 형식 및 제원에 대한 지진취약도 곡선을 산정하고 국내 내진설계기준을 적용하여 공용 중인 교량의 내진성능을 추정하였다. 또한 이를 플랫폼에 탑재하여 사용자가 국내 교량에 대한 내진성능 추정을 간편하게 검토할 수 있도록 서비스 항목을 구축하였다.

In this study, various application schemes of seismic isolation system which can be applied to Hanok have been studied by analyzing its structural characteristics under seismic load. Structural stability of Hanok is more required against seismic load as Hanok becomes long-spanned and multi-storied. To meet this goal, it becomes necessary to study more advanced technology such as seismic isolation design as well as seismic control design and seismic resistant design suitable to Hanok. Seismic isolation systems have been successfully applied to RC and steel structures to improve structural performance during earthquakes. Based on these previous study, we proposed four application schemes of seismic isolation design suitable for Hanok and analyzed their structural characteristics and applicability to Hanok in conceptual level based on its structural characteristics. The proposed four schemes are base isolation method, ground isolation method, roof isolation method and intermediate-story isolation method. The applicability of the proposed method was evaluated by performing boundary nonlinear dynamic analysis to the typical Hanok for the two types of isolation method, that is, ground isolation method and roof isolation method, and the results showed that the proposed methods produced good performance enough to be applied to Hanok.

Nuclear power plants in Korea were designed and evaluated based on the NRC's Regulatory Guide 1.60, a design response spectrum for nuclear power plants. However, it can be seen that the seismic motion characteristics are different when analyzing the Gyeongju earthquake and the Pohang earthquake that has recently occurred in Korea. Compared to the design response spectrum, seismic motion characteristics in Korea have a larger spectral acceleration in the high-frequency region. Therefore, in the case of equipment with a high natural frequency installed in a nuclear power plant, seismic performance may be reduced by reflecting the characteristics of domestic seismic motions. The failure modes of the equipment are typically structural failure and functional failure, with an anchorage failure being a representative type of structural failure. In this study, comparative analyses were performed to decide whether to consider the inelastic behavior of the anchorage or not. As a result, it was confirmed that the seismic performance of the anchorages could be increased by considering the inelastic behavior of an anchorage.

One of the important factors is the infill walls in the change of the structural rigidity, ductility, dynamic and static characteristics of the structures. The infill walls are not generally included in numerical analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) structural system due to lack of suitable theory and the difficulty of calculating the recommended models. In seismic regions worldwide, the residential structures are generally RC buildings with infill wall. Therefore, understanding the contribution of the infill walls to seismic performance of buildings may have a vital importance. This paper investigates the effects of infill walls on seismic performance of the existing RC residential buildings by considering requirements of the Turkish Earthquake Code (TEC). Seismic performance levels of residential RC buildings with and without walls in high-hazard zones were determined according to the nonlinear procedure given in the code. Pushover curves were obtained by considering the effect of masonry infill walls on seismic performance of RC buildings. The analysis results showed that the infill walls beneficially effected to the rigidity, roof displacements and seismic performance of the building.

선행연구에서는 새로운 PC접합방식을 고안하여 실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과 비부착 긴장재의 특성 때문에 모든 실험체가 보 단부의 압축파괴 양상을 보였다. 따라서 본 연구는 압축력을 견디기 위하여 콘크리트 횡구속 보강근, 주근의 dog-boned를 변수로 실험체를 설계하였고, 더불어 향상된 내진성능을 확보하기 위한 목표로 실험연구를 수행하였다. 실험결과 주근 항복은 없었으며 횡구속 보강근의 영향으로 선행연구보다 내진성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

Seismic probabilistic risk assessment (SPRA) requires a large number of simulations to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of structural and nonstructural components in nuclear power plants. The effect of structural modeling and analysis assumptions on dynamic analysis of 3D and simplified 2D stick models of auxiliary buildings and the attached nonstructural components is investigated. Dynamic characteristics and seismic performance of building models are also evaluated, as well as the computational accuracy of the models. The presented results provide a better understanding of the dynamic behavior and seismic performance of auxiliary buildings. The results also help to quantify the impact of uncertainties associated with modeling and analysis of simplified numerical models of structural and nonstructural components subjected to seismic shaking on the predicted seismic failure probabilities of these systems.

Seismic isolation technology has a wide application to protect bridges from earthquake damage, a new designed bridge pier with seismic isolation are provided for railways in seismic regions of China. The pier with rocking isolation is a self-centering system under small and moderate earthquakes, and the unbonded prestressed tendons are used to prevent overturning under strong earthquakes. A numerical model based on pseudo-static testing results is presented to evaluate the seismic performance of isolation bridge piers, and is validated by the shaking table test. It is found that the rocking response and the loss of prestressing for the bridge pier increase with the increase of earthquake intensity. Besides, the intensity and spectral characteristics of input ground motion have great influence on displacement of the top and bottom of the bridge pier, while have less influence on the bending moment of the pier bottom. Experimental and numerical results show that the rocking-isolated piers presented in this study have good seismic performance, and it provides an alternative way for the railway bridge in the regions with high occurrence of earthquakes. Therefore, we provide the detailed procedures for seismic design of the rocking-isolated bridge pier, and a case study of the seismic isolation design with rocking piers is carried out to popularize the seismic isolation methods.

Static pushover analyses of typical existing reinforced concrete frames, designed according to the previous generations of design codes in Greece, have established these structures' inelastic characteristics, namely overstrength, global ductility capacity and available behaviour factor q, under planar response. These were compared with the corresponding demands at the collapse limit state target performance point. The building stock considered accounted for the typical variability, among different generations of constructed buildings in Greece, in the form, the seismic design code in effect and the material characteristics. These static pushover analyses are extended, in the present study, in the time history domain. Consequently, the static analysis predictions are compared with Incremental Dynamic Analysis results herein, using a large number of spectrum compatible recorded base excitations of recent destructive earthquakes in Greece and abroad, following, for comparison, similar conventional limiting failure criteria as before. It is shown that the buildings constructed in the 70s exhibit the least desirable behaviour, followed by the buildings constructed in the 60s. As the seismic codes evolved, there is a notable improvement for buildings of the 80s, when the seismic code introduced end member confinement and the requirement for a joint capacity criterion. Finally, buildings of the 90s, designed to modern codes exhibit an exceptionally good performance, as expected by the compliance of this code to currently enforced seismic provisions worldwide.

산업시설이 국가 경제에 기여하는 바를 고려할 때 지진에 대한 운전성 확보는 매우 중요하다. 그러나, 현행 내진설계의 기본 개념은 대규모 지진에 대해 주로 시설물의 연성거동을 허용하며 붕괴방지를 목적으로 구조적인 안전성만을 고려한다. 산업시설의 운전성 확보를 위해, 산업시설물의 구조거동 특성에 따라 운전성을 유지하기 위한 내진성능수준이 다양할 수 있으며, 이를 만족하기 위한 내진설계방법이 필요하다.본 연구에서는 평저형 저장탱크에 대한 비선형 응답이력 해석으로 비선형 지진거동 특성(R-μ-T)을 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 신뢰도 기반의 성능기반 내진설계 방법을 새롭게 제안하였다.
