본 논문에서는 시간이력곡선법에 의한 구조물의 동적해석이 가능하도록 한반도 지진 특성을 고려한 인공지진파 작성에 관한 연구를 시도하였다. 인공지진파 작성에 유용한 포락함수와 유효지속시간은 관측지진파의 분석 결과를 적용하고, 가속도는 지진구역도에서 평가된 최대 값으로 결정하였다. 특히 인공지진파는 지반조건과 진원지 거리에 따라 형태가 다르게 나타나는 특성을 고려했다. 추계학적 방법으로 작성한 인공지진파의 최대가속도는 0.2g 이고, 유효지속시간은 24초이다. 그리고 인공지진파의 신뢰성 검토는 지진파의 포락함수 비교와 설계응답스펙트럼에 도시된 지진파의 응답 결과로 확인되었다.

This study aims to develop ensemble machine learning (ML) models for estimating the peak floor acceleration and maximum top drift of steel moment frames. For this purpose, random forest, adaptive boosting, gradient boosting regression tree (GBRT), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) models were considered. A total of 621 steel moment frames were analyzed under 240 ground motions using OpenSees software to generate the dataset for ML models. From the results, the GBRT and XGBoost models exhibited the highest performance for predicting peak floor acceleration and maximum top drift, respectively. The significance of each input variable on the prediction was examined using the best-performing models and Shapley additive explanations approach (SHAP). It turned out that the peak ground acceleration had the most significant impact on the peak floor acceleration prediction. Meanwhile, the spectral accelerations at 1 and 2 s had the most considerable influence on the maximum top drift prediction. Finally, a graphical user interface module was created that places a pioneering step for the application of ML to estimate the seismic demands of building structures in practical design.

The result of recent seismic hazard analysis indicates that the ground motion response spectra for Korean nuclear power plant site have relatively large high frequency acceleration contents. In the ordinary seismic fragility analysis of nuclear power plant structures and equipments, the safety margin of design ground response spectrum is directly used as a response spectrum shape factor. The effects of input response spectrum shape on the floor response spectrum were investigated by performing the direct generation of floor response spectrum from the ground response spectrum. The safety margin included in the design ground response spectrum should be considered as a floor response spectrum shape factor for the seismic fragility analysis of the equipments located in a building.

This paper investigates seismic damage potential of recent September 12 M5.8 Gyeongju earthquake from diverse earthquake engineering perspectives using the accelerograms recorded at three stations near the epicenter. In time domain, strong motion durations are evaluated based on the accelerograms and compared with statistical averages of the ground motions with similar magnitude, epicentral distance and soil conditions, while Fourier analysis using FFT is performed to identify damaging frequency contents contained in the earthquake. Effective peak ground accelerations are evaluated from the calculated response spectra and compared with apparent peak ground accelerations and the design spectrum in KBC 2016. All these results are used to consistently explain the reason why most of seismic damage in the earthquake was concentrated on low-rise stiff buildings but not quite significant. In order to comparatively appraise the damage potential, the constant ductility spectrum constructed from the Gyeongju earthquake is compared with that of the well-known 1940 El Centro earthquake. Deconvolution analysis by using one accelerogram speculated to be recorded at a stiff soil site is also performed to estimate the soil profile conforming to the response spectrum characteristics. Finally, response history analysis for 39- and 61-story tall buildings is performed as a case study to explain significant building vibration felt on the upper floors of some tall buildings in Busan area during the Gyeongju earthquake. Seismic design and retrofit implications of M5.8 Gyeongju earthquake are summarized for further research efforts and improvements of relevant practice.

The present study investigates the non-linear soil-pile interaction using three-dimensional (3D) non-linear finite element models. The numerical models were validated by using the results of extensive pile load and shaking table tests. The pile performance in liquefiable and non-liquefiable soil has been studied by analyzing the liquefaction ratio, pile lateral displacement (LD), pile bending moment (BM), and frictional resistance (FR) results. The pile models have been developed for the different ground conditions. The study reveals that the results obtained during the pile load test and shaking cycles have good agreement with the predicted pile and soil response. The soil density, peak ground acceleration (PGA), slenderness ratio (L/D), and soil condition (i.e., dry and saturated) are considered during modeling. Four ground motions are used for the non-linear time history analyses. Consequently, design charts are proposed depended on the analysis results to be used for design practice. Eleven models have been used to validate the capability of these charts to capture the soil-pile response under different seismic intensities. The results of the present study demonstrate that L/D ratio slightly affects the lateral displacement when compared with other parameters. Also, it has been observed that the increasing in PGA and decreasing L/D decreases the excess pore water pressure ratio; i.e., increasing PGA from 0.1 g to 0.82 g of loose sand model, decrease the liquefaction ratio by about 50%, and increasing L/D from 15 to 75 of the similar models (under Kobe earthquake), increase this ratio by about 30%. This study reveals that the lateral displacement increases nonlinearly under both dry and saturated conditions as the PGA increases. Similarly, it is observed that the BM increases under both dry and saturated states as the L/D ratio increases. Regarding the acceleration histories, the pile BM was reduced by reducing the acceleration intensity. Hence, the pile BM decreased to about 31% when the applied ground motion switched from Kobe (PGA=0.82 g) to Ali Algharbi (PGA=0.10 g). This study reveals that the soil conditions affect the relationship pattern between the FR and the PGA. Also, this research could be helpful in understanding the threat of earthquakes in different ground characteristics.

현재 국내 내진설계기준에서 제시하고 있는 지반분류 방법 및 지반 증폭계수는 기반암이 주로 30m 이내에 위치하는 일반적인 국내 지반특성을 제대로 반영하지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 사질토 지반에 근입된 비정형 말뚝기초(PHC 500, 중심 간격 3D, 4D, 5D)와 상부 구조물에 대한 동적 원심모형 실험을 실시하여 자유장과 기초판의 응답 스펙트럼 결과를 비교하였다. 단주기 영역인 1초 이내 주기에서는 기초판 및 지표면 자유장의 측정 스펙트럼이 SC 및 SD 지반의 표준설계스펙트럼 가속도보다 크게 나타났다. 1.5초 이상의 장주기 영역에서는 실험에서 측정된 스펙트럼 가속도가 SC 지반의 표준설계응답스펙트럼 가속도보다 작게 나타났고 상부구조물 유무, 지반 근입 심도, 기초 및 자유장 조건에 의한 스펙트럼 가속도 차이가 거의 발생하지 않았다. 따라서, 실제 아파트에 해당하는 1.5초 이상의 장주기에서는 국내 지반조건을 고려하여 측정된 스펙트럼 가속도를 설계에 적용하면 표준설계스펙트럼을 적용할 때 보다 경제적인 설계가 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

연약지반이 두껍고 다양한 지층으로 구성된 지역에 건설되는 단일형 현장타설말뚝 교량은 다양한 지층을 통해서 단일형 말뚝으로 입력되는 지반운동에 대해서 내진안전성을 확보하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 설계지반운동에 부합되는 다수의 인공합성지진을 생성하여 이를 암반의 입력지반으로 하여 지반해석을 수행하여 각 지층에서의 지반가속도이력을 산정하였다. 이 가속도이력을 이용하여 각 지층의 지반을 등가스프링으로 모델화하고, 각 지층에서의 가속도시간이력을 입력지반운동으로 하는 다지점 가진 지진해석을 수행하였다. 연약층의 비선형거동특성으로 입력지반운동의 세기는 크게 증폭되지 않아서 교량은 탄성영역 내에서 거동하였다. 한편, 특정 지층에서 산정된 가속도이력을 모든 지반스프링에 동시에 입력하면 응답이 감소하였다. 따라서, 다지점가진 해석을 수행하지 않으면 이러한 형식의 교량의 내진성능을 과대평가할 수 있다.

Energy-based seismic design and evaluation methods are promising to be involved in the next generation design codes. Accordingly, determining the distribution of earthquake input energy demand among floor levels is quite imperative in order to develop an energy-based seismic design procedure. In this paper, peak floor input energy demands are achieved from relative input energy response histories of several reinforced concrete (RC) frames. A set of 22 horizontal acceleration histories selected from recorded near-fault earthquakes and scaled in time domain to be compatible with the elastic acceleration design spectra of Turkish Seismic Design Code are used in time history analyses. The distribution of the computed input energy per mass values and the arithmetic means through the height of the considered RC frames are presented as a result. It is found that spatial distribution of input energy per mass is highly affected by the number of stories. Very practical yet consistent formulation of distributing the total input energy to story levels is achieved, as a most important contribution of the study.

현행 내진설계 일반(KDS 17 10 00)에 따르면 내진설계 시 사용하는 입력지진파에 대한 기준이 명확히 제시되어 있고 실지진파에 대해서는 표준설계응답스펙트럼에 맞추어 보정하도록하고 있으나, 실지진파 선택에 따른 영향이 사전에 평가되지 않아 지진파 선택 시 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내외에서 발생한 실지진파에 대하여 국내 설계기준이 제시하는 표준설계응답스펙트럼에 부합하도록 보정한 후, 수치해석을 통하여 필댐의 침하량 변화를 평가하였다. 그 결과 댐 하단에 작용하는 자유장 가속도의 영향보다 댐 마루에서의 최대가속도, 댐제체를 통한 증폭 특성등 제체 상부의 거동이 침하량에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 동일한 표준설계응답스펙트럼으로 보정한 입력지진파일지라도 초기 실지진파와 댐 제체에서의 증폭 특성에 따라 침하량이 달리 평가될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
