지진재해로 인한 라이프라인의 피해는 구조물의 손상뿐만 아니라, 통신장애, 전력 가스 수자원 등 다양한 생활에너지의 공급에 장애를 발생시킨다. 이러한 지진재해에 효율적으로 대응하기 위해 미국과 일본에서는 HAZUS 및 HERAS와 같은 지진재해평가 시스템을 구축하여 활용하고 있다. 국내에서도 이러한 시스템 구축을 위해 노력하고 있으나, 근본적으로 구조물의 지진 해석을 통한 평가자료가 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다양한 구조물 중 국내에 시공된 수많은 매설관을 조사하여 관 재질 특성에 따라 연성관과 취성관으로 분류하고 이에 대한 동적 거동을 분석하였다. 다양한 지진하중 하에서 국내 및 미국의 시공기준에 따라 매설관의 동적 거동을 비교 평가하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 미국 HAZUS 프로그램의 알고리즘에 따른 국내의 매설관 손상평가의 적정성을 조사하였다.

Probabilistic tsunami hazard analysis (PTHA) is based on the approach of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) which is performed using various seismotectonic models and ground-motion prediction equations. The major difference between PTHA and PSHA is that PTHA requires the wave parameters of tsunami. The wave parameters can be estimated from tsunami propagation analysis. Therefore, a tsunami simulation analysis was conducted for the purpose of evaluating the wave parameters required for the PTHA of Uljin nuclear power plant (NPP) site. The tsunamigenic fault sources in the western part of Japan were chosen for the analysis. The wave heights for 80 rupture scenarios were numerically simulated. The synthetic tsunami waveforms were obtained around the Uljin NPP site. The results show that the wave heights are closely related with the location of the fault sources and the associated potential earthquake magnitudes. These wave parameters can be used as input data for the future PTHA study of the Uljin NPP site.

Considering the history of severe earthquakes and the presence of active faults in the greater Tehran region, the possibility of a destructive earthquake occurring is high and seismic hazard analysis is crucial. Gumbel distributions are commonly-used statistical distributions in earthquake engineering and seismology. Their main advantage is their basis on the largest earthquake magnitudes selected from an equal-time predefined set. In this study, the first asymptotic distribution of extremes is used to estimate seismicity parameters and peak ground acceleration (PGA). By assuming a Poisson distribution for the earthquakes, after estimation of seismicity parameters, the mean return period and the probable maximum magnitude within a given time interval are obtained. A maximum probable magnitude of 7.0 has a mean return period of 100 years in this region. For a return period of 475 years, the PGA in the greater Tehran region is estimated to be 0.39g to 0.42g, depending on local site conditions. This value is greater than that of the Iranian Code for Seismic Design of Buildings, indicating that a revision of the code is necessary.

A methodology to assess seismic fragility of a nuclear power plant (NPP) using a conditional mean spectrum is proposed as an alternative to using a uniform hazard response spectrum. Rather than the single-scenario conditional mean spectrum, which is the conventional conditional mean spectrum based on a single scenario, a multi-scenario conditional mean spectrum is proposed for the case in which no single scenario is dominant. The multi-scenario conditional mean spectrum is defined as the weighted average of different conditional mean spectra, each one of which corresponds to an individual scenario. The weighting factors for scenarios are obtained from a deaggregation of seismic hazards. As a validation example, a seismic fragility assessment of an NPP containment structure is performed using a uniform hazard response spectrum and different single-scenario conditional mean spectra and multi-scenario conditional mean spectra. In the example, the number of scenarios primarily influences the median capacity of the evaluated structure. Meanwhile, the control frequency, a key parameter of a conditional mean spectrum, plays an important role in reducing logarithmic standard deviation of the corresponding fragility curves and corresponding high confidence of low probability of failure (HCLPF) capacity.

It has knows that the seismicity of the Korean Peninsula is relatively inactive than those of adjacent northern China and southwestern Japan. Recently the review of long term historical records and recent seismicity. In addition, it is considered that the modern society is more vulnerable to seismic hazard because of high urbanization and industrialization. From this viewpoint, the improvement and modification of the present regulation for aseismic design is strongly proposed. The purpose of the present study is to prepare seismic hazard maps for Korea to be used in improving the present regulation. The present study was performed as a cooperative project of eight Korean seismologists. Each seismologist calculated independently seismic hazard value at the given grid points based on his own judgement about methodology and seismicity. Then the values are unified with equal weight to produce a seismic hazard map. Seven seismic hazard maps for peak acceleration with 10 percentile probability of exceedance in 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 250, 500 years are presented. This probability of exceedancd in such years corresponds to return period of 48, 95, 190, 475, 950, 2373, 4747 years, respectively. It is recommended to use a hazard map to be selected on the basis of the importance and the design level of structures.

This paper presents a framework for seismic damage evaluation for Algerian buildings adapted from HAZUS approach (Hazard-United States). Capacity and fragility curves were adapted to fit the Algerian building typologies (Reinforced Concrete structures, Confined or Non-Confined Masonry, etc). For prediction purposes, it aims to estimate the damages and potential losses that may be generated by a given earthquake in a prone area or country. Its efficiency is validated by comparing the estimated and observed damages in Boumerd$\grave{e}$s city, in the aftermath of Boumerd$\grave{e}$s earthquake (Algeria: May $21^{st}$ 2003; $M_w$ = 6.8). For this purpose, observed damages reported for almost 3,700 buildings are compared to the theoretical predictions obtained under two distinct modelling of the seismic hazard. In one hand, the site response spectrum is built according to real accelerometric records obtained during the main shock. In the other hand, the effective Algerian seismic code response spectrum (RPA 99) in use by the time of the earthquake is considered; it required the prior fitting of Boumerd$\grave{e}$s site PGA (Peak Ground Acceleration) provided by Ambraseys' attenuation relationship.

지진을 수반한 산사태는 지난 십년동안 수만명의 사상자와 수십억불의 재난피해를 초래해 왔다. 정역학적으로 안정된 경사로 표현되는 잠재적 지진 위험요소를 결정하는 것은 지진이 발생하는 동안 중요한 움직임을 평가하는데 필수적이다. 동적 하중에서의 산사태 움직임을 추정하기 위한 Newmark 방법이 소개되고 두 사례에 적용되었다. 그리고 에너지에 근거한 간략법이 Newmark의 변위를 추정하기 위하여 개발되었다.

Observed ground motions from the January 2007 magnitude 4.9 Odaesan earthquake and the events occurring in the Gyeongsang provinces are compared with the previously proposed ground attenuation relationships in the Korean Peninsula to select most appropriate one. The selected relationship from the ones for the Korean Peninsula has been compared with attenuation relationships available in HAZUS. Then, the attenuation relation for the Western United States proposed by Sadigh et al.(1997) for the Site Class B has been selected for this study. It has been used for the earthquake loss estimation of the Gyeongju area located in southeast Korea using the deterministic method in HAZUS with a scenario earthquake (M=6.7). Application of the improved methodology for loss estimation in Korea will help decision makers for planning disaster responses and hazard mitigation.

This paper presents tile results of experimental studies of the isolated Model EDG Systems. For the experimental work, the scaled model of EDG system and the isolation systems were developed. The target EDG model is 16PC2-5V400 which was manufactured by the SEMT Pielstick corporation. The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper Systems were selected for the isolation system. The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper systems can reduce not only seismic forces but also the operating vibration. For the input seismic motions, the scenario earthquake and the artificial earthquakes which were developed as NRC design spectrum and Uniform hazard Spectrum(UHS) were selected. As a result, at least 20% of seismic forces were decreased as the isolation system.

지진이 발생할 경우 산사태로 인한 피해는 지진으로 인한 전체 피해 중 상당 부분을 차지하고 있으며, 지진시 산사태는 인명 및 구조물에 직접적인 피해를 유발할 뿐만 아니라, 도로, 산업 기간망 등의 기능을 상실하게 하여 사회 시스템을 마비시킨다. 따라서, 지진에 대한 사면의 재해 위험을 평가하여 대비책을 수립하는 것은 매우 중요한 일이며, 이를 위해서는 국내 여건에 알맞은 재해위험 평가 방법을 정립하는 것이 무엇보다도 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 하지만, 현재 국내에서 진행하고 있는 사면의 재해위험 평가는 많은 지반 정보를 추정하거나 가정하여 사용하고 있어 불확실성을 내포하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 GIS 기법을 이용하여 등가정적안전율 및 변위에 대한 지진시 산사태 위험도 작성시 결과에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 포화도와 점착력 등 지반 정보의 변화에 따라 산사태 위험도에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 본 연구에 따르면, 포화도가 증가하고 점착력이 감소할수록 등가정적안전율 및 변위에 관한 위험지역이 증가하는 것을 확인하였으며, 정확한 산사태 위험도 작성을 위해서는 연구대상지역 전체를 대표할 수 있는 정확한 지반 조사 자료의 확보가 선행적으로 수행되어져야 될 것으로 판단된다.
