This study was designated to clarify the aspect of the wave propagation around the cavity. The change of traveltime and amplitude of the seismic wave was observed according to the various wave velocities of the cavity. The seismic wave detour or penetrate the cavity depending on the seismic velocity of the in-filled material. Generally, seismic wave detours toward high velocity zone around the cavity, and when the velocity of the cavity material reaches to 80 % of the base rock, the wave penetrates the cavity. The traveltime of the detouring seismic wave is not sensitive to the change of the cavity velocity, but as the velocity of the cavity increases, the fall of the amplitude was reduced. The penetrating wave showed the steeply increasing amplitude due to the reiteration of the detouring wave.

Spatial variations of a seismic wave are mainly wave passage and wave scattering. Wave passage effect is produced by changed characteristics of exciting seismic input motions applied to the bedrock. Modified input motions travel horizontally with time differences determined by apparent shear wave velocity of the bedrock. In this study, wave passage effect on the seismic response of a structure-soil system is investigated by modifying the finite element software of P3DASS (Pseudo 3-Dimensional Dynamic Analysis of a Structure-soil System) to apply inconsistent (time-delayed) seismic input motions along the soft soil-bedrock interface. Study results show that foundation size affected on the seismic response of a structure excited with inconsistent input motions in the lower period range below 0.5 seconds, and seismic responses of a structure were decreased considerably in the lower period range around 0.05 seconds due to the wave passage. Also, shear wave velocity of the bedrock affected on the seismic response of a structure in the lower period range below 0.3 seconds, with significant reduction of the seismic response for smaller shear wave velocity of the bedrock reaching approximately 20% for an apparent shear wave velocity of 1000m/s at a period of 0.05 seconds. Finally, it is concluded that wave passage effect reduces the seismic response of a structure in the lower period range when the bedrock under a soft soil is soft or the bedrock is located very deeply, and wave passage is beneficial for the seismic design of a short period structure like a nuclear container building or a stiff low-rise building.

지구물리학적 현상을 이해하고 지반공학 관련 문제를 해결하기 위한 주요 요소로서 전단파속도가 강조되어 왔다. 특히, 내진설계와 내진성능평가를 위한 지반지진공학 분야에서 전단파속도의 중요성이 보편적으로 인지되고 있다. 국내 183개소 부지들에서의 다양한 현장 탄성파시험 수행을 통해 대상 조사 부지들에서의 대표적 지반 동적물성으로서의 깊이별 전단파속도 분포들을 결정하였다. 대상 부지들의 지하 토사와 암반 지층을 지반지진공학적 간편 활용을 위한 매립토, 퇴적토, 풍화토, 풍화암 및 기반암의 5 종류 지반지층으로 재분류하였다. 현장 탄성파시험의 전단파속도 분포들을 종합하여 5 종류 지반지층들의 평균적인 전단파속도 주상들을 도출하였으며, 이를 토대로 지진학 및 지반지진공학에서의 유용을 위한 각 지층별 대표 전단파속도 값을 도출하였다.

Seismic random responses due to the wave passage effect are extensively investigated by using the pseudo excitation method (PEM). Two examples are used. The first is very simple but also very informative, while the second is a realistic suspension bridge. Numerical results show that the seismic responses vary significantly with wave speed, especially for low velocity or large span. Such variations are not monotonic, especially for flexible structures. The contributions of the dynamic and quasi-static components depend heavily on the seismic wave velocity and the natural frequencies of structures. For the lower natural frequency cases, the dynamic component has significant effects on the dynamic responses of the structure, whereas the quasi-static component dominates for higher natural frequencies unless the wave speed is also high. It is concluded that if insufficient data on local seismic wave velocity is available, it is advisable to select several possible velocity values in the seismic analysis and to choose the most conservative of the results thus obtained as the basis for design.

Recently, a new seismic probe, called "MudFork", has been developed and can be utilized for accurate and easy measurements of shear wave velocities of soft soils. To expand its use to estimate undrained shear strength and density, correlations between those and shear wave velocity were being attempted. Cone penetration tests and a seismic test, using MudFork, were performed at a soft ground site near Incheon, Korea. Also, undisturbed samples were obtained and shear wave velocities of the samples were measured as well as undrained shear strength, using triaxial compression test and bender elements. A simple linear relationship between shear strength and shear wave velocity was obtained, and a tentative relationship between density and shear wave velocity was also defined.

Seisimic wave가 지하 내부로 전파되어 갈 때 점차적으로 에너지를 상실함으로써 attenuation현상을 일으킨다. Seismic wave의 velocity를 complex number로 표시하여 실수부는 phase velocity, 허수부는 attenuation 상수로 하여 attenuation특성을 수치적으로 modeling하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 주파수와 독립적으로 로그특성으로 감쇄해가는 매질 속에서의 파동의 전파를 modeling한다. 본 연구는 attenuation을 위치함수로 표시하여 순방향 및 역방향 numerical modeling에 응용하여 FFT계산때 발생하는 wrap-arround noise 를 효율적으로 제거함으로써 memory space를 절약하고 computing time을 감소시킬 수 있음을 잘 보여주고 있다.

The evaluation of shear modulus (or shear wave velocity) profile of site is very important in the various fields of geotechnical engineering. To obtain shear wave velocity profile, various in-situ seismic methods using surface waves have been developed. These surface wave based in-situ seismic methods have their own strength and weakness. In this study, new seismic site characterization method using the harmonic wavelet analysis of wave (HWAW) was proposed to overcome some of weaknesses in the existing surface wave based seismic site characterization methods. HWAW method which is based on time-frequency analysis using harmonic wavelet transform have been developed to determine phase and group velocities of waves. In order to estimate the applicability of HWAW method, field tests were performed. Through field applications and comparison with other test results, the applicability of the proposed method were verified.

In this study a modified ground strain model is developed for an equivalent earthquake load and is applied to the seismic analysis of buried pipelines, The ground strain can be obtained using the ratio of a maximum ground velocity to a wave propagation velocity. To reflect soil conditions and seismic characteristics the wave propagation velocity is evaluated by a proposed dispersion curve based on wave energy distribution. In order to verify the procedures the observed earthquake data and the results of this study are compared. For the application of an equivalent earthquake load to the seismic analysis the buried pipelines are modeled using the beam theory. the results of the analyses are compared with those of a dynamic analysis code and those obtained from the response displacement method. Finally various parametric studies considering different soil conditions and seismic loads are examined.

To calculate proper seismic design load and seismic design category, the exact site class for construction site is required. At present, the average shear-wave velocity for multi-layer soil deposits is calculated by the sum of shear-wave velocities without considering of vertical relationship of the strata. In this study, the transfer function for the multi-layered soil deposits was reviewed on the basis of the wave propagation theory. Also, the transfer function was accurately verified by the finite element model and the eigenvalue analysis. Three methods for site period estimation were evaluated. The sum of shear-wave velocities underestimated the average shear-wave velocities of 526 strata with large deviations. The equation of Mexican code overestimated the average shear-wave velocities. The equation of Japanese code well estimated the average shear-wave velocities with small deviation.
