  • 국내외 현수교량 주케이블의 경우, 부식을 방지하기 위해 송기시스템을 통하여 주케이블 내부 상대습도를 보통 $40%{\pm}5%$ 이하로 유지하고 있다. 국내 주케이블 송기시스템이 설치된 현수교량의 위치는 모두 지리적으로 온난다습한 기후에 노출되는 빈도가 높은 해안지역이며, 특히나 우리나라의 해안지역은 각 계절의 온도차 및 일교차가 크기 때문에 강재 부식에 더욱 열악한 조건이다. 본 연구에서는 지역별 환경분석을 수행함으로써 보편적으로 사용하고 있는 송기시스템의 가동기준 40%가 아닌 좀 더 효율적인 지역별 송기시스템 가동 기준을 수립하는데 기초자료로 활용하고자 하였다. 최근 국내에 가장 큰 영향을 끼친 태풍 BOLAVEN(2012)과 CHABA(2016) 기간의 상대습도 분포, 분석 기간(2012~2016) 중 내습한 모든 태풍의 기간을 제외한 여름철과 겨울철의 상대습도 분포, 기온과 연계한 겨울철 상대습도 분포 분석을 통해 지역별로 송기시스템 가동기준을 차별화하는 것에 대한 근거를 마련할 수 있었다. 미래 기후변화로 인한 해수면 온도 상승 및 강수량 증가의 영향을 고려할 때 더욱더 객관적인 지역별 송기시스템 가동기준이 필요할 것으로 판단되며, 이는 추후 현수교 주케이블의 송기시스템 가동에 대한 경제적 효율성을 높일 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • In recent localized heavy rainfalls have been arising from abnormal climate change. People are concerning about damages with increasing the frequency of flooding. Therefore, we need to understand river hydraulic characteristics and management to reduce damage from flooding. To study hydraulic characterization of Sincheon experimental catchment HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center River Analysis System) model which provided by U.S Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) was applied. This study analyzed and compared water level the frequency flood for 100 years and 200 years by clark unit Hydrography. The change of the water level of Daejeon bridge, Sincheon bridge and Singi bridge showed increased for all conditions. The flow rate for the Daejeon bridge and the Sincheon bridge showed an increase, but the Sinki bridge showed a decreasing flow rate overally, except for 1hour-100 years. The verification result showed that the model was able to simulate the water level with 0.4709 coefficient of determination and error ration ranging from 1 to 3%.

  • The lack of safety of bridge deck structures causes frequent repair and strengthening of such structures. The repair induces great loss of economy, not only due to direct cost by repair, but also due to stopping the public use of such structures during repair. The major reason for this frequent repair is mainly due to the lack of realistic and accurate assessment system for the bridge decks. The purpose of the present research was to develop a realistic expert system, called Bridge Slab-Expert which can evaluate reasonably the condition as well as the service life of concrete bridge decks, based on the deterioration models that are derived from both the structural and environmental effects. The diagnosis assessment of deck slabs due to structural and environmental effects are developed based on the cracking in concrete, surface distress and structural distress. Fuzzy logic is utilized to handle uncertainties and imprecision involved. Finally, Bridge Slab-Expert is developed for prediction of safety and remaining service life based on the chloride ions penetration and fick's second law. Proposed expert system is based on user-friendly GUI environment. The developed expert system will allow the correct diagnosis of concrete decks, realistic prediction of service life, the determination of confidence level, the description of condition and the proposed action for repair.

  • H 형강은 시공성과 유지관리의 간편성으로부터 교량의 주형과 가설 구조물에 사용하는 경우가 증가하고 있다. 특히 H형강을 교량에 적용하는 경우 지점부의 부모멘트에 의해 지간장 20m 내외가 한계이고, 기존공법의 경우 콘크리트를 사용한 공법에 비해 큰 장점을 가지고 있지 못한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 교량의 장지간화가 가능한 가로거더공법을 개발하여 기존의 강교량의 문제점을 극복한 장지간 H형강 강합성 교량을 개발하고자한다. 여기서는 수치해석적 방법으로 주형과 주형이 연속화되는 시점을 변화시켜 내하력을 계산하고, 그 결과로 부터 합리적인 가로거더공법을 개발하고자한다.

  • 본 논문은 교량의 예방적 유지관리 효과를 생애주기비용 절감 측면에서 분석 하였다. 예방적 유지관리는 현재 실시되고 있는 대응적 유지관리 전략과 대비 되는 유지관리 전략으로 교량의 열화지연을 통해 궁극적으로는 교량의 사용수명을 연장 시키며 생애주기비용을 절감시키는 유지관리 전략이다. 이러한 예방적 유지관리 효과를 분석하기 위해 교량의 공용연수에 따른 건전도 점수 변화 모델과 FHWA 자료를 바탕으로 한 국내 고속도로 교량의 건전도 점수에 따른 보수 보강 비용 모델을 제시 하였다. 제시한 복수의 모델과 국내외 참고 문헌을 바탕으로 제안된 예방적 유지관리 항목(청소와 도장)의 비용과 주기를 활용하여 사용수명 100년까지의 표준교량($1,730m^2$/교량) 당 생애주기 비용과 향후 20년간의 고속도로 총 유지관리 비용을 산정 하였다. 분석 결과 100년간 예방적 유지관리 활동으로 인해 교량 당 5억원의 절감효과를 볼 수 있으며 현재 예방적 유지관리 활동을 실시할 경우 20년 후(2035년)에는 총 1,837억원, 즉 연간 약 92억원의 비용 절감효과를 볼 수 있는 것으로 분석 되었다.

  • Optimal life-cycle management is a challenging issue for deteriorating regional bridges. Due to the complexity of regional bridge structural conditions and a large number of inspection and maintenance actions, decision-makers generally choose traditional passive management strategies. They are less efficiency and cost-effectiveness. This paper suggests a deep reinforcement learning framework employing double-deep Q-networks (DDQNs) to improve the life-cycle management of deteriorating regional bridges to tackle these problems. It could produce optimal maintenance plans considering restrictions to maximize maintenance cost-effectiveness to the greatest extent possible. DDQNs method could handle the problem of the overestimation of Q-values in the Nature DQNs. This study also identifies regional bridge deterioration characteristics and the consequence of scheduled maintenance from years of inspection data. To validate the proposed method, a case study containing hundreds of bridges is used to develop optimal life-cycle management strategies. The optimization solutions recommend fewer replacement actions and prefer preventative repair actions when bridges are damaged or are expected to be damaged. By employing the optimal life-cycle regional maintenance strategies, the conditions of bridges can be controlled to a good level. Compared to the nature DQNs, DDQNs offer an optimized scheme containing fewer low-condition bridges and a more costeffective life-cycle management plan.

  • Reliability is an important issue in cascaded H-bridge converters (CHB converters) because they use a high number of power semiconductors. A faulty power cell in a CHB converter can potentially lead to expensive downtime and great losses on the consumer side. With a fault-tolerant control strategy, operation can continue with the undamaged cells; thus increasing the reliability of the system. In this paper, the operating principles and the control method for a CHB multilevel rectifier are introduced. The influence of various faults on the CHB converter is investigated. The method of fault diagnosis and the bypassing of failed cells are explained. A fault-tolerant protection strategy is proposed to achieve redundancy in the CHB rectifier. The redundant H-bridge concept helps to deal with device failures and to increase system reliability. Simulation results verify the performance of the proposed strategy.

  • Rubber wheeled AGT(Automated Guide-way Transit) system is a prominence transportation system for urban area, because of its low construction cost and management, low noise and vibration and fine exterior view. AGT system uses concrete tracks. Concrete can be easily damaged by the impact, change of temperature and external loads. The fault of concrete track is harmful not only to riding quality but also to bridge. Therefore, in this study, the effects of railway prominence to the bridge are surveyed by experimental method. The experiment was executed for PSC bridge at AGT test line in Kyungsan. And the test results for 5mm, 10mm prominence and without prominence are compared and investigated, according to the vehicle speed.
