The seismic failure-prone region in Istanbul has been examined in terms of the segmented pipelines. Although some researchers have suggested that this territory should be left as a green land, many people continue to live in this area. This region is about 9-10 km away from the North Anatolian Fault Line. This fault zone is an active right-lateral strike-slip fault line in Turkey and an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.0-7.5 is expected in the Marmara Sea. Therefore, superstructures and infrastructures are under both land sliding risks and seismic risks in this area. Because there are not any pipeline-fault line intersection points in the region, in this study, it has been focused on the behaviors of the segmented (sewage or stormwater) pipelines subject to earthquake-induced permanent ground deformation and seismic wave propagation. Based on the elastic beam theory some necessary analyses have been carried out and obtained results of this approximation have been examined.

As the magnitude and frequency of earthquakes increase in Korea, interest in earthquake damage reduction technology has increased. Therefore, research on vibration damping devices that directly respond to seismic loads is being actively researched. After an earthquake, damage or destruction of the device occurs due to the yield of materials, and thus it takes considerable cost and time for restoration and replacement. To supplement the problems of the existing earthquake damage reduction technology, a study was conducted on the recentering smart damper that can be used continuously after an earthquake. In this study, the recentering smart damper that can be restored to its original shape after load removal was developed using superelastic shape memory alloy, pre-compressed polyurethane. General steel was commonly applied to verify the seismic performance of the superelastic shape memory alloy, and the performance of the smart damper was verified according to the amount of polyurethane pre-compressed

The 2017 Pohang earthquake afflicted more significant economic losses than the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake, even if these earthquakes had a similar moment magnitude. This phenomenon could be due to local site conditions that amplify ground motions. Local site effects could be estimated from methods using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio, standard spectral ratio, and the generalized inversion technique. Since the generalized inversion method could estimate the site effect effectively, this study modeled the site effects in the Korean peninsula using the generalized inversion technique and the Fourier amplitude spectrum of ground motions. To validate the method, the site effects estimated for seismic stations were tested using recorded ground motions, and a ground motion prediction equation was developed without considering site effects.

Microearthquake records with magnitude 2.6~3.1 recorded in the southeastern part of the Korean peninsula during 1994~1998 are analyzed. Total of 42 records consisted of 12 events instrumented at 7 stations. The response spectra with the above data shows that the frequency range of the dominant response is about 10~25Hz and are compared with the standard response spectrum. The result implies that the characteristics of the microearthquake ground motion differ from those of standard response spectrum presented in US NRC Reg. Guide 1.60 especially at higher frequencies.

This paper reports the results of a study designed to understand and facilitate disaster mitigation for communities located in low frequency/high magnitude earthquake zones. The study is based on a small town located near the New Madrid Fault Zone and is therefore at significant earthquake risk. A system dynamics model describes the variables and policies governing the distribution of building safety over time. Data from this town is used to establish a 25-year baseline. Simulations are run to demonstrate the consequences of different building policies.

Dynamic loads may arise from rotating parte of pump if they are insufficiently balanced. The magnitude of pump induced vibrations varies according to the weight, eccentricity, and unbalanced mass of pump. This is a study to estimate the pump induced vibration in time and frequency domain by transfer function. The transfer function has real and imaginary information of signals, and response function has also real and imaginary information. So the vibration force can be obtained from the response and transfer function by complex calculation. The amplitudes and components of 50Hp pump vibration force are suggested.

By one dimensional acoustic transmission from ground to air, the author has derived the level of sound caused by earthquakes. He has also tried to assign proper values of ground acceleration to the modified mercalli intensity scale and thence earthquake sound level to the intensity scale has been deduced as L\sub M/ = 79.6+6.0M, dB, where M is the earthquake magnitude in the modified Mercalli intensity scale.

지진으로부터 안전지대로 인식되어온 한반도에 2016.09.12. 규모5.8의 강진이 발생했다. 더 이상 한반도가 지진으로부터 안전지대가 아니라는 사실이 확인되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 우리사회의 지진 대비상태를 점검하고 지진발생시 직접적 피해객체인 건물의 속성을 파악하여 그 현황을 지진 안전지도구축을 통하여 효율적 지진방재정책을 위한 정책의사결정에 도움을 주고자 함에 그 목적이 있다. 지진 안전지도는 GIS툴을 활용하여 공간분석을 통해 작성된다. 지진 안전지도구축이 지진방재정책의 전부는 아니지만 부실한 지진대비체계를 보완하여 효율적으로 바꾸는 시발점이라는 것에 의미를 두고자한다.

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.

내진구조는 건축규준에 의하여 강제성을 띤 이후 많은 발전을 하였으나 아직도 완전하게 이해되지는 않고 있다. 본 논문은 실제로 발생하였던 두 지진의 지반운동을 10층의 철골조에 적용시켜 얻은 결과를 비교하였다. 1989년 California의 Loma Prieta에서 발생한 규모 7.1의 지진기록 12세트와 1985년 Chile의 Valparaiso에서 발생한 규모 7.8의 지진기록 9세트를 UBC의 지진지역 2B에 알맞게 조절하였다. 비슷한 규모를 가진 두 지진의 지반변위를 건물에 직접 적용시켜서 비교한 결과 그 지속시간이 긴 Chile지진이 상대적으로 지속시간이 짧은 California지진보다 약 2배 정도 큰 영향을 건물에 미치는 것이 발견되었다. 내진구조의 설계에 있어서 최대지반운동과 더불어 지반운동의 지속시간도 매우 중요하게 고려되어야 할 사항이다.
