In this study, a response spectrum analysis of an electric distributing board (EDB) was conducted to investigate seismic integrity in the design stage. For the seismic analysis, the required response spectra of a safe shutdown earthquake with 2% damping (RRS/SSE-2%) specified in GR-63-CORE Zone 4 was used as the ground spectral acceleration input. A finite element method modal analysis of the EDB was also performed to examine the occurrence of resonance within the frequency range of the earthquake response spectrum. Furthermore, static stress caused by deadweight was analyzed. The resultant total maximum stress of the EDB structure was calculated by adding the maximum stresses from both seismic and static loads using the square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) method. Finally, the structural safety of the EDB was investigated by comparing the resultant total maximum stress with the allowable stress.

응답스펙트럼은 내진설계에 있어서 중요한 기초자료의 하나이다. 응답스펙트럼을 얻기 위하여, 한반도에서 발생하는 지진들의 지진원 특성에 근거하여 다수의 강진동을 Boore(2005)에 의해 개발된 컴퓨터 프로그램 SMSIM을 사용하여 모사하였다. 여러 연구결과들에 대한 충분한 검토를 통하여, 모사에 필요한 입력자료들을 선정하였다. 모사된 강진동으로부터 얻은 응답스펙트럼은 가속도 1.0 g에 대하여 정규화하여 미국 원자력위원회(1973)의 표준응답스펙트럼과 비교하였다. 이 연구에서 얻어진 응답스펙트럼의 스펙트럼 진폭은 대략 10 Hz 이상의 고주파 대역에서 표준 응답스펙트럼 값에 비하여 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한 응력강하량의 변화에 따른 응답스펙트럼의 변화를 평가하였다. 그 결과 큰 응력강하량에 대한 응답스펙트럼의 스펙트럼 진폭은 저주파 범위내에서 큰 값을 나타냄을 제시하였다.

A significant development has been made on a new fatigue damage model applicable to Gaussian wide band stress response spectra using numerical approximation methods such as data processing, time simulation, and regression analysis. So far, most of the alternative approximate models provide slightly underestimated or overestimated damage results compared with the rain-flow counting distribution. A more reliable approximate model that can minimize the damage differences between exact and approximate solutions is required for the practical design of ships and offshore structures. The present paper provides a detailed description of the development process of a new fatigue damage model. Based on the principle of the Gaussian wide band model, this study aims to develop the best approximate fatigue damage model. To obtain highly accurate damage distributions, this study deals with some prominent research findings, i.e., the moment of rain-flow range distribution MRR(n), the special bandwidth parameter μk, the empirical closed form model consisting of four probability density functions, and the correction factor QC. Sequential prerequisite data processes, such as creation of various stress spectra, extraction of stress time history, and the rain-flow counting stress process, are conducted so that these research findings provide much better results. Through comparison studies, the proposed model shows more reliable and accurate damage distributions, very close to those of the rain-flow counting solution. Several significant achievements and findings obtained from this study are suggested. Further work is needed to apply the new developed model to crack growth prediction under a random stress process in view of the engineering critical assessment of offshore structures. The present developed formulation and procedure also need to be extended to non-Gaussian wide band processes.

This paper presents a plant control panel model for the analysis. Seismic qualification analysis for the plant control panel is carried out to confirm the structural integrity under the seismic conditions represented by required response spectra(RRS). For the analysis finite element method(FEM) is used. And mode combinations are adopted to obtain the reliability of the spectrum analysis. The analysis results shows that the plant control panel system is designed as a dynamically rigid assembly, without any resonance frequency below 33Hz. The calculated stress of the plant control panel system is much less than yield stress of used steel.

This study focused on nonlinear effective stress site response analysis using two coupled constitutive models, that is, the DM model (Dafalias and Manzari 2004), which incorporated a simple plasticity sand model accounting for fabric change effects, and the PMDY03 model (Khosravifar et al. 2018), that is, a 3D model for earthquake-induced liquefaction triggering and postliquefaction response. A detailed parametric study was conducted to validate the effectiveness of nonlinear site response analysis and porewater pressure (PWP) generation through a true coupled formulation for assessing the initiation of liquefaction at ground level. The coupled models demonstrated accurate prediction of liquefaction triggering, which was in line with established empirical liquefaction triggering relations in published databases. Several limitations were identified in the evaluation of liquefaction using the cyclic stress method, despite its widespread implementation for calculating liquefaction triggering. Variations in shear stiffness, represented by changes in shear wave velocity (Vs1), exerted the most significant influence on site response. The study further indicated that substantial differences in response spectra between nonlinear total stress and nonlinear effective stress analyses primarily occurred when liquefaction was triggered or on the verge of being triggered, as shown by excess PWP ratios approaching unity. These differences diminished when liquefaction occurred towards the later stages of intense shaking. The soil response was predominantly influenced by the higher stiffness values present prior to liquefaction. A key contribution of this study was to validate the criteria used to assess the triggering of level-ground liquefaction using true coupled effective-stress constitutive models, while also confirming the reliability of numerical approximations including the PDMY03 and DM models. These models effectively captured the principal characteristics of liquefaction observed in field tests and laboratory experiments.

In this paper, seismic qualification analysis for the Plant control Panel is carried out to confirm the structural integrity under the seismic conditions represented by required response spectra(RRS). The finite element method(FEM) is used for the analysis and a mode combination method is adopted to obtain a more reliable spectrum analysis results. In addition, the experimental analysis is performed to compare the reliability of the analytical results. The analysis results shows that the plant control panel system is designed to have the dynamic rigidity with no resonance frequency below 33 Hz. The analytically calculated maximum stress of the plant control panel system is $36\%$ of the field strength of material, thus it can be shown that the system has a stable structure for the seismic load.

Dynamic response of a hull mounted sonar(HMS) to shocks transmitted through hull structures is analyzed and then the structural reliability of the sonars is evaluated. Finite element model of the hull mounted sonar is established and the transient responses to the shock is calculated using MSC.NASTRAN. According to BV043, the maximum allowable accelerations at the foundation of the sonar are converted from the shock spectra allowable for HMS. They are applied vertically and horizontally, respectively, using the large mass method. The structural reliability is evaluated by comparing the von-Mises stresses with the material yield stress. The drum for sensors shows a high reliability owing to mounts by which the shock waves from the base structure are well protected. However, the mounts between the base structure and the drum to mount sensors show a high stress intensity. The base structure also reveals a high stress intensity at the connection points to the hull.

최근 백령도 해역에서 발생한 규모 4.3에 해당하는 중규모 지진(2011년 6월 17일)으로부터 관측된 지반진동 파형을 이용하여 지진원 기구 및 수평 응답스펙트럼을 분석하였다. 분석결과를 한반도의 응력방향과 비교하였고 또한 국내 원자력 관련 구조물의 내진설계 기준과 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준과 각각 비교하였다. 지진원 연구에 이용된 지반진동은 3개 관측소(각 관측소에서 3성분)에서 관측된 전파형에 대해 모멘트텐서 기본식을 이용한 격자탐색법을 적용하여 분석하였다. 지진원기구에서 제시하는 주압축응력 방향은 ENE-WSW 방향으로 기존 한반도 전체의 주 응력방향과 대체로 유사하였다. 원자력 관련 구조물의 내진설계 기준과 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준과 각각 비교하였다. 국내 원자력시설물의 내진기준으로 이용되고 있는 Reg. Guide 1.60과 비교한 결과 특히 약 3 Hz 이상의 높은 고유진동수 영역에서 Reg. Guide 1.60 기준보다 높은 값을 보여 주었다. 또한 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준인 표준 설계응답스펙트럼을 비교한 결과 약 0.8초 이하의 단주기 영역의 전체 대역(SD 지반조건)에서 자료처리 결과가 기준을 크게 초과하였다. 향후 국내 지진활동 실정에 적합한 내진설계 기준 마련을 위해 관측자료의 질적 향상 및 양적인 축적 등을 통하여 특히 높은 고유진동수 대역에서 수평응답스펙트럼 기준의 보수성을 재고할 필요가 있다.

This paper investigates the possibility of controlling the response of typical portal frame structures to blast loading using a combination of semi-active and passive control devices. A one storey reinforced concrete portal frame is modelled using non-linear finite elements with each column discretised into multiple elements to capture the higher frequency modes of column vibration response that are typical features of blast responses. The model structure is subjected to blast loads of varying duration, magnitude and shape, and the critical aspects of the response are investigated over a range of structural periods in the form of blast load response spectra. It is found that the shape or length of the blast load is not a factor in the response, as long as the period is less than 25% of the fundamental structural period. Thus, blast load response can be expressed strictly as a function of the momentum applied to the structure by a blast load. The optimal device arrangements are found to be those that reduce the first peak of the structural displacement and also reduce the subsequent free vibration of the structure. Semi-active devices that do not increase base shear demands on the foundations in combination with a passive yielding tendon are found to provide the most effective control, particularly if base shear demand is an important consideration, as with older structures. The overall results are summarised as response spectra for eventual potential use within standard structural design paradigms.
