본 연구에서는 R/C 골조구조물에 대한 내진성능개선 방법으로서, 벽식 마찰 감쇄기 모델을 새롭게 제안하였다. 기존의 감쇄 장치가 일반적으로 브레이스 부재 형태를 취하고 있으나, 브레이스형 감쇄장치는 시공상 강골조구조물에는 적용하기 용이한 반면 R/C 골조구조물에 적용 시에는 R/C 구조부재와 감쇄기간의 연결 문제, 감쇄기와 R/C 부재 연결부에서의 응력집중으로 인한 R/C 구조부재의 파손 우려 등의 단점이 있다. 제안된 감쇄기는 감쇄기 연결부의 R/C 구조부재 파손 및 구조물의 P-Δ효과를 줄이는데 장점을 가지면서 감쇄기로서의 역할을 발휘하도록 한 테프론 슬라이더와 R/C 전단벽 조합형 감쇄기이다. 제안된 감쇄기의 내진성능개선 능력을 평가하기 위하여, 감쇄기의 수치모델을 고려한 R/C 골조구조물의 비선형 동적해석 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 지진하중이 작용하는 기존의 10층 3경간 R/C 골조구조물에 본 감쇄기를 적용한 수치해석 결과, 시간이력거동 및 층간변위의 억제에서 탁월한 제어효과를 나타내었으며, 저층 기둥 부재의 소성힌지 발생 및 구조부재의 손상을 감쇄기의 소산에너지로 억제하여 줌으로서 구조물 내진성능개선에 효과가 우수한 것으로 평가되었다.

본 논문은 안전정지지진에 대한 spacer grid충격하중의 동적특성을 고찰한 것이다. 안전정지지 진 (SSE： Safe Shutodown Earthquake)을 가진력으로 사용하였고 모델로는 가장 긴 15 row의 핵연료집합체 모델을 사용하였다. 외부에서 제공되는 입력데이타의 불확실성을 보상하기 위하여 흔히 사용되는 10%증가된 입력값과, NRC 권고사항인 입력응답스펙트럼의 이동효과의 영향이 평가되었다. 평가대상으로는 spacer grid의 충격력이 사용되었다. 해석결과로서 입력응답 스펙트럼의 이동효과의 영향은 거의 무시할 수 있으나 증가된 입력값의 영향은 spacer grid의 충격력에 큰 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 원자로노심의 동적응답을 위해서는 입력응답 스펙트럼을 이동시키면서 해석할 필요가 없음을 확인하였다.

The structural dynamic behavior and yield strength considering both ductility and strain rate effects are analyzed in this article. For the single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system, the relationship between the relative velocity and the strain rate response is deduced and the strain rate spectrum is presented. The ductility factor can be incorporated into the strain rate spectrum conveniently based on the constant-ductility velocity response spectrum. With the application of strain rate spectrum, it is convenient to consider the ductility and strain rate effects in engineering practice. The modal combination method, i.e., square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) method, is employed to calculate the maximum strain rate of the elastoplastic multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) system under uniform excitation. Considering the spatially varying ground motions, a new response spectrum method is developed by incorporating the ductility factor and strain rate into the conventional response spectrum method. In order to further analyze the effects of strain rate and ductility on structural dynamic behavior and yield strength, the cantilever beam (one-dimensional) and the triangular element (two-dimensional) are taken as numerical examples to calculate their seismic responses in time domain. Numerical results show that the permanent displacements with and without considering the strain rate effect are significantly different from each other. It is not only necessary in theory but also significant in engineering practice to take the ductility and strain rate effects into consideration.

In this paper, it is aimed to determine the stochastic response of a suspension bridge subjected to spatially varying ground motions considering the geometric nonlinearity. Bosphorus Suspension Bridge built in Turkey and connects Europe to Asia in Istanbul is selected as a numerical example. The spatial variability of the ground motion is considered with the incoherence, wave-passage and site-response effects. The importance of site-response effect which arises from the difference in the local soil conditions at different support points of the structure is also investigated. At the end of the study, mean of the maximum and variance response values obtained from the spatially varying ground motions are compared with those of the specialised cases of the ground motion model. It is seen that each component of the spatially varying ground motion model has important effects on the dynamic behaviour of the bridge. The response values obtained from the general excitation case, which also includes the site-response effect causes larger response values than those of the homogeneous soil condition cases. The variance values calculated for the general excitation case are dominated by dynamic component at the deck and Asian side tower. The response values obtained for the site-response effect alone are larger than the response values obtained for the incoherence and wave-passage effects, separately. It can be concluded that suspension bridges are sensitive to the spatial variability of ground motion. Therefore, the incoherence, the wave-passage and especially the site-response effects should be considered in the stochastic analysis of this type of engineering structures.

Numerous non-destructive tests(NDT) to assess the safety of real structures have been developed. System identification(SI) techniques using dynamic responses and behaviors of structural systems become an outstanding issue of researchers. However the conventional SI techniques are identified to be non-practical to the complex and tall buildings, due to limitation of the availability of an accurate data that is magnitude or location of external loads. In most SI approaches, the information on input loading and output responses must be known. In many cases, measuring the input information may take most of the resources, and it is very difficult to accurately measure the input information during actual vibrations of practical importance, e.g., earthquakes, winds, micro seismic tremors, and mechanical vibration. However, the desirability and application potential of SI to real structures could be highly improved if an algorithm is available that can estimate structural parameters based on the response data alone without the input information. Thus a technique to estimate structural properties of building without input measurement data and using limited response is essential in structural health monitoring. In this study, shaking table tests on three-story plane frame steel structures were performed. Out-put only model analysis on the measured data was performed, and the dynamic properties were inverse analyzed using least square method in time domain. In results damage detection was performed in each member level, which was performed at story level in conventional SI techniques of frequency domain.

교량의 하부구조는 고정하중과 차량 활하중 등의 수직 방향 하중을 지지할 뿐만 아니라 횡방향 하중을 지지해야 하므로 교량의 안전성에 있어 매우 중요한 구조 요소임과 동시에 경제성에 영향을 미치는 요소이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 말뚝캡 직상부에 모멘트 집중을 피할 수 있는 말뚝형 기둥의 현장 적용성에 대한 기초적인 사례연구를 수행하였으며, 말뚝 본체의 구조성능보다는 지반의 지지력이 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다.

Seismic control performance of MR dampers, which have severe nonlinearity, differs with respect to the dynamic characteristics of an earthquake such as magnitude, frequency and duration. In this study, the effects of excitation characteristics on the equivalent linear system of a building structure with the MR damper are investigated through numerical analysis for artificial ground motions generated from different response spectrums. The equivalent damping ratio of the structure with the MR damper is calculated using Newmark and Hall's equations for ground motion amplification factors. It is found that the equivalent damping ratio of the structure with the MR damper is dependent on the ratio of the maximum friction force of the MR damper over excitation magnitude. Frequency contents of the earthquake ground motion affects the equivalent damping ratio of long-period structures considerably. Also, additional damping effect caused by interaction between the viscousity and friction of the MR damper is observed. Finally, response reduction factors for equivalent linear systems are proposed in order to improve accuracy in the prediction of the actual nonlinear response.

The optimum design of base isolation system considering model parameter uncertainty is usually performed by using the unconditional response of structure obtained by the total probability theory, as the performance index. Though, the probabilistic approach is powerful, it cannot be applied when the maximum possible ranges of variations are known and can be only modelled as uncertain but bounded type. In such cases, the interval analysis method is a viable alternative. The present study focuses on the bounded optimization of base isolation system to mitigate the seismic vibration effect of structures characterized by bounded type system parameters. With this intention in view, the conditional stochastic response quantities are obtained in random vibration framework using the state space formulation. Subsequently, with the aid of matrix perturbation theory using first order Taylor series expansion of dynamic response function and its interval extension, the vibration control problem is transformed to appropriate deterministic optimization problems correspond to a lower bound and upper bound optimum solutions. A lead rubber bearing isolating a multi-storeyed building frame is considered for numerical study to elucidate the proposed bounded optimization procedure and the optimum performance of the isolation system.
