지진시 지진의 3가지 진동 성분이 나타난다. 즉 수평진동 성분, 지반의 연직 진동에 의해 발생된 상부 구조물과의 피드백의 의한 말뚝의 연지 진동, 그리고 연직 지반 진동에 의한 해수의 진동, 즉, 해진이 그것들이다 이들 진동들을 해양에 설치된 개단 강관 말뚝 주변에 유발된 간극수압의 크기와 관내토 폐색력에 영향을 미칠수 있다 지반과 말뚝의 진동은 유사 지진 진동으로써 흙과 말뚝을 진동시켜서 모델링할 수 있지만 연직 지반 거동에 의해 유발된 해진 진동은 해저면에 정현파 형상의 동수압을 가해주어 모델링할 수 있다 이 연구에서는 유사화된 지진과 해진시 압력토조에 설치된 개단강관말뚝에 유발된 간극수압의 발생양상과 이에 따라 관내토 폐색력의 저감원인을 관찰하였다 연직 지진 진동시 관내토 상단에서는 관내토 하단에서와 비슷한 크기의 간극수압이 발생하였으므로 관내토에서는 상향의 침토가 유발되지 않았으며수평지진 진동시 관내토에서는 상향의 침트를 유발시켜 관내토 폐쇄력을 20%정도 저감시켰다. 해진시 수심이 220m 이상의 심해에 설치된 개단 강과 말뚝의 경우 관내토 하부 지반과 관대토 상단과의 매우 큰 동수경사로 인하여 관내토 내에 상향의 침투가 발생하여 관내토의 폐색을 파괴시켰다.

In the nonlinear dynamic structural analysis, the given ground excitation as an input should be well defined. Because of the lack of recorded accelerograms in Korea, it is required to generate an artificial earthquake by a stochastic model of ground excitation with various dynamic properties rather than recorded accelerograms. It is well own that earthquake motions are generally non-stationary with time-varying intensity and frequency content. Many researchers have proposed non-stationary random process models. Yeh and Wen (1990) proposed a non-stationary stochastic process model which can be modeled as components with an intensity function, a frequency modulation function and a power spectral density function to describe such non-stationary characteristics. This model is based on the simulation for the strong-motion earthquakes with magnitude greater than approximately 5.0~6.0, because it will be not only expected to cause structural damage but also involved the characteristics of earthquake motions. Also, the recorded earthquake motion within this range are still very scarce in Korea. Thus, it is necessary to verify the model by the application of it to the mid-magnitude (approximately 4.0~6.0) earthquakes actually recorded in domestic or foreign area. The purpose of the paper is to generate an artificial earthquake using the model of Yeh and Wen in the area with low seismicity.

An optimal design method for hybrid structural control system of building structures subject to earthquake excitation is presented in this paper. Designing a hybrid structural control system nay be defined as a process that optimizes the capacities and configuration of passive and active control systems as well as structural members. The optimal design proceeds by formulating the optimization problem via a multi-stage goal programming technique and, then, by finding reasonable solution to the optimization problem by means of a goal-updating genetic algorithm. The process of the integrated optimization design is illustrated by a numerical simulation of a nine-story building structure subject to earthquake excitation. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by comparing the optimally designed results with those of a hybrid structural control system where structural members, passive and active control systems are uniformly distributed.

본 논문에서는 비선형 추계적 구조시스템의 지진에 대한 동적응답 해석방법을 제안하였다. 부분구조합성법에 기초한 섭동법을 응용하여 지진외력에 의한 불규칙진동의 시간응답과 주파수응답 해석과정을 정식화하였다. 이 방법에서는 대형 .동적 시스템의 지배방정식인 비선형 미분방정식을 몇 개의 비선형 모달방정식으로 근사 변환한다. 각 분계는 비선형 복원력항을 모드좌표로 근사변환함으로써 선형화하여 합성되어진다. 모드좌표에서 섭동법을 이용하여 비선형 운동방정식의 불규칙 진동에 대한 해를 구함으로 해석과정이 축소되어진다. 제안된 방법의 적합성과 유효성을 평가하기 위하여 비선형성을 가진 기계구조 시스템을 해석하였다. 이 해석결과는 불규칙 진동 응답을 해석하는데 유효한 접근방법으로 판단되며 내진 설계에 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

본 논문에서는 지반 기진력을 받는 5층의 시험 구조물의 전동 레벨을 줄이기 위해 AC 서보모터를 이용한 복합 질량 감쇠기를 설계 및 제작하여, 5층의 시험구조물을 랜덤 및 지진 파형으로 가진하였을 때의 복합 질량 감소기와 동조 질량 감쇠기의 효과 및 제어 성능을 실험을 통해 비교 분석하였다. 이를 통해 복합질량 감쇠기는 동조 질량 감쇠기에 비하여 특히 과도 상태의 지진이 구조물의 2개 모드 이상을 동시에 가진할 경우에 구조물의 진동을 줄임에 훨씬 더 유용함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a structural design method of a smart tuned mass damper (TMD) for a retractable-roof spatial structure under earthquake excitation was proposed. For this purpose, a retractable-roof spatial structure was simplified to a single degree of freedom (SDOF) model. Dynamic characteristics of a retractable-roof spatial structure is changed based on opened or closed roof condition. This condition was considered in the numerical simulation. A magnetorheological (MR) damper was used to compose a smart TMD and a displacement based ground-hook control algorithm was used to control the smart TMD. The control effectiveness of a smart TMD under harmonic and earthquake excitation were evaluated in comparison with a conventional passive TMD. The vibration control robustness of a smart TMD and a passive TMD were compared along with the variation of natural period of a simplified structure. Dynamic responses of a smart TMD and passive TMD under resonant harmonic excitation and earthquake load were compared by varying mass ratio of TMD to total mass of the simplified structure. The design procedure proposed in this study is expected to be used for preliminary design of a smart TMD for a retractable-roof spatial structure.

Ancient monuments of Greek and Roman classical architecture usually consist of multi-drum columns that are constructed of stone blocks placed on top of each other. Several research studies deal with the seismic behaviour of such structures, since earthquakes are common causes of destruction of such monuments. This paper investigates the effect of multiple earthquakes on the seismic performance of multi-drum columns, through numerical simulations and parametric analyses. The Discrete Element Method and an appropriate contact model have been implemented in a specially developed software application that is able to efficiently perform the necessary simulations in two dimensions. Specifically, various strong ground excitations are used in series for the computation of the collective final deformation of multi-drum columns. In order to calculate this cumulative deformation for a series of ground motions, the individual deformation of the column for each excitation is computed and then used as initial conditions for the next earthquake excitation. Various multi-drum columns with different dimensions are also considered in the analyses in order to examine how the geometric characteristics of columns can affect their seismic sequence behaviour, in combination with the excitation frequency content.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has been related to damage identification with either operational loads or other environmental loading playing a significant complimentary role in terms of structural safety. In this study, a non-parametric method of time frequency analysis on the measurement is used to address the time-frequency representation for modal parameter estimation and system damage identification of structure. The method employs the wavelet decomposition of dynamic data by using the modified complex Morlet wavelet with variable central frequency (MCMW+VCF). Through detail discussion on the selection of model parameter in wavelet analysis, the method is applied to study the dynamic response of both steel structure and reinforced concrete frame under white noise excitation as well as earthquake excitation from shaking table test. Application of the method to building earthquake response measurement is also examined. It is shown that by using the spectrogram generated from MCMW+VCF method, with suitable selected model parameter, one can clearly identify the time-varying modal frequency of the reinforced concrete structure under earthquake excitation. Discussions on the advantages and disadvantages of the method through field experiments are also presented.

The study presents the earthquake performance of the Bosphorus Bridge under multi-point earthquake excitation considering the spatially varying site-specific earthquake motions. The elaborate FE model of the bridge is firstly established depending on the new considerations of the used FEM software specifications, such as cable-sag effect, rigid link and gap elements. The modal analysis showed that singular modes of the deck and the tower were relatively effective in the dynamic behavior of the bridge due to higher total mass participation mass ratio of 80%. The parameters and requirements to be considered in simulation process are determined to generate the spatially varying site-specific ground motions. Total number of twelve simulated ground motions are defined for the multi-support earthquake analysis (Mp-sup). In order to easily implement multi-point earthquake excitation to the bridge, the practice-oriented procedure is summarized. The results demonstrated that the Mp-sup led to high increase in sectional forces of the critical components of the bridge, especially tower base section and tensile force of the main and back stay cables. A close relationship between the dynamic response and the behavior of the bridge under the Mp-sup was also obtained. Consequently, the outcomes from this study underscored the importance of the utilization of the multi-point earthquake analysis and the necessity of considering specifically generated earthquake motions for suspension bridges.
