  • Spatial variability of ground motions has significant influence on dynamic response of longitudinal structures such as bridges and tunnels. The coherency function, which quantifies the degree of positive or negative correlation between two ground motions, is often used to describe the spatially variable ground motions. This paper compares two available procedures for developing spatially variable ground time histories from a given coherency function. Hao's method shows serious limitation, resulting in unrealistic decrease in coherency with increase in distance Abrahamason's method, on the other hand, preserves important characteristics of the reference ground motion. Therefore, the Abrahamason's method is recommended to be used in developing spatially varying ground motions.

  • 고속철도교량에서 장대레일의 사용은 연결부 근처에서 레일과 교량상판사이의 비선형 거동으로 인하여 부가적인 응력을 유발한다. 고속철도 교량의 지진응답해석에서, 구조물응답은 지반운동특성에 매우 영향을 많이 받으므로, 지반운동의 위치에 따른 변화가 구조물의 응답에 영향을 미치게 되고, 그 결과는 레일에 응력을 유발하게 된다. 또한 고속철도에서 사용지진 수준의 지진발생 시에 열차의 긴 제동거리가 필요하므로 열차의 안전한 정지를 확보하는 것이 요구된다. 이러한 관점에서 장대레일에 의해 부가적으로 발생하는 응력, 지반운동의 공간변화에 대한 구조물 응답의 영향, 그리고 안전하게 정지하기 위해 필요한 열차의 제동거리 등의 사항이 레일의 응력해석에 고려될 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 지진하중을 받는 고속철도교량의 장대레일 응력해석을 위하여 제동하중, 지반운동의 공간적 변화, 그리고 레일의 재료 비선형을 고려한 시간영역에서의 비선형 동적해석방법을 개발하고 적용하였다. 제시된 방법을 한국고속철도의 특정부지에 적용하여 지반운동의 공간변화에 따른 응답의 타당성을 보였다.

  • The safety of a tunnel under seismic motion is most often evaluated by ovalling deformation of tunnel. This paper research about tunnel's longitudinal deformation. Because of spatial variation of seismic ground motion, the longitudinal structures like tunnel are likely to experience relative displacements along longitudinal direction. The spatially variable ground motion can be estimated by coherency function obtained empirically, and can be considered from different arrival times of ground motion. As a result of estimating tunnel's relative displacements at maximum curvature of tunnel, the displacements and curvatures estimated by coherency function affect the tunnel's safety more than different arrival times. However, if tunnel's displacements by coherency function superpose on displacements by different arrival times, the relative displacements and curvatures of tunnel will be more severe. Therefore, to estimate accurately tunnel's deformation in longitudinal direction has to consider both coherency and wave passage effects.

  • The spatial variation of ground motion in Kolkata Metropolitan District (KMD) has been estimated by generating synthetic ground motion considering the point source model coupled with site response analysis. The most vulnerable source was identified from regional seismotectonic map for an area of about 350 km radius around Kolkata. The rock level acceleration time histories at 121 borehole locations in Kolkata for the vulnerable source, Eocene Hinge Zone, due to maximum credible earthquake (MCE) moment magnitude 6.2 were generated by synthetic ground motion model. Soil investigation data of 121 boreholes were collected from the report of Soil Data Bank Project, Jadavpur University, Kolkata. Surface level ground motion parameters were determined using SHAKE2000 software. The results are presented in the form of peak ground acceleration (PGA) at rock level and ground surface, amplification factor, and the response spectra at the ground surface for frequency 1.5 Hz, 3 Hz, 5 Hz and 10 Hz and 5% damping ratio. Site response study shows higher PGA in comparison with rock level acceleration. Maximum amplification in some portion in KMD area is found to be as high as 3.0 times compared to rock level.

  • 이산폰툰형 부유식교량의 시간영역 지진응답해석을 지진파의 공간분포를 고려하여 수행하였다. 지반운동의 공간변화는 파의 통과 영향, 엇결성 뎡향 및 국부지반 영향을 반영하는 결맞음 함수 모델로 고려하였다. 부유식 교량의 상부구조는 공간뼈대요소와 탄성현수케이블요소를 이용하여 모델링 하였고, FHWA 가이드라인의 스프링 모델을 사용하여 교대의 지반 구조물 상호작용에 대한 영향을 고려하엿으며, 경계요소법으로 산정한 폰툰 동수력계수의 주파수 의종성을 고려하기 위해서 시간지연함수를 사용하였다. 지반운동의 공간변화를 고려한 다중지점 지진입력을 교량의 양단에 도입하였고 응답의 시간이력을 동시 가진 시와 비교하였다. 장주기의 동적특성을 갖는 이산폰툰형 부유식 교량의 지진응답 해석에서 지반운동의 공간분포를 고려할 경우에 주몰할만한 응답의 증폭이 나타날 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • Evaluating a Review-Level Ground Motion is a key to efficiently perform Seismic Margin Assessment of nuclear power plants whose purpose is to determine a ground motion level for which a plant has high-confidence-of-a-low-probability of seismic-induced core damage and to identify any weaker-link components. In this study a method to obtain RLGMs is reviewed which is recommended by Electric Power Research Institute and implemented to be applied to Limerick site in eastern and central U. S as a case study. This method provides reasonable and site-specific RLGMs as minimum required plant HCLPF for SMA that meet a target mean seismic core-damage frequency based on seismic hazard results and generic values of uncertainty and randomness parameters of the core-damage fragility curves. In addition high-frequency RLGM is justifiably modified to reflect the increased seismic capacity of high-frequency components and spatial variation and incoherence of input ground motion on a basemat of large structures by establishing a method to obtain high0-frequency reduction factors according to EPRI guidelines.

  • The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of transient stochastic analysis on nonlinear response of earth and rock-fill dams to spatially varying ground motion. The dam models are analyzed by a stochastic finite element method based on the equivalent linear method which considers the nonlinear variation of soil shear moduli and damping ratio as a function of shear strain. The spatial variability of ground motion is taken into account with the incoherence, wave-passage and site response effects. Stationary as well as transient stochastic response analyses are performed for the considered dam types. A time dependent frequency response function is used throughout the study for transient stochastic responses. It is observed that stationarity is a reasonable assumption for earth and rock-fill dams to typical durations of strong shaking.

  • The spatial variation characteristics of seismic motions at the nuclear power plant's site and structures were analyzed using earthquake records obtained at the Fukushima nuclear power plant during the Great East Japan Earthquake. The ground responses amplified as they approached the soil surface from the lower rock surface, and the amplification occurred intensively at about 50 m near the ground. Due to the soil layer's nonlinear characteristics caused by the strong seismic motion, the ground's natural frequency derived from the response spectrum ratio appeared to be smaller than that calculated from the shear wave velocity profile. The spatial variation of the peak ground acceleration at the ground surface of the power plant site showed a significant difference of about 0.6 g at the maximum. As a result of comparing the response spectrums at the basement of the structure with the design response spectrum, there was a large variability by each power plant unit. The difference was more significant in the Fukushima Daiichi site record, which showed larger peak ground acceleration at the surface. The earthquake motions input to the basement of the structure amplified according to the structure's height. The natural frequency obtained from the recorded results was lower than that indicated in the previous research. Also, the floor response spectrum change according to the location at the same height was investigated. The vertical response on the foundation surface showed a significant difference in spectral acceleration depending on the location. The amplified response in the structure showed a different variability depending on the type of structure and the target frequency.

  • Pounding is a major cause of bridge damage during earthquakes. In an extreme situation, it can even contribute to the unseating of bridge girders. Long-span bridges will inevitably experience spatially varying ground motions. Soil-structure interaction (SSI) may play a significant role in the structural response of these structures. The objective of this research is to experimentally investigate the effect of spatially varying ground motions on the response of a three-segment bridge considering SSI and pounding. To incorporate SSI, the model was placed on sand contained in sandboxes. The sandboxes were fabricated using soft rubber in order to minimise the rigid wall effect. The spatially varying ground motion inputs were simulated based on the New Zealand design spectra for soft soil, shallow soil and strong rock conditions, using an empirical coherency loss function. The results show that with pounding, SSI can amplify the pier bending moments and the relative opening displacements.

  • 지진파는 진원지로부터 지표면으로 전파되는 과정에서 전파경로와 부지증폭정도의 차이, 그리고 비균질한 지반에서의 지진파 산란 등으로 인하여 공간적으로 변이하게 된다. 공간적으로 변이하는 지진파는 교량과 터널과 같이 종단방향 길이가 긴 구조물에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 지진파의 공간적 변이성이 교량에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 잘 알려져 있지만 터널에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 체계적인 연구가 수행된 바 없다. 본 연구에서는 공간적으로 변이하는 지진파에 대한 터널의 응답을 예측하기 위한 새로운 기법을 개발하였다. 개발된 기법의 핵심은 이격거리별 계산된 공간적으로 변이하는 지진파의 시간이력으로부터 생성되는 종단방향 변위 주상도이다. 종단방향 변위 주상도는 일련의 3차원 유사정적 유한요소해석을 수행하는데 사용되었다. 해석결과, 공간적으로 변이하는 지진파는 터널에 종단방향 휨을 유발하며 터널 라이닝에 큰 축력이 발생할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 특히 지반의 특성이 변이하는 경계면에서 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다.
