지진공학 분야에서는 내진설계를 위한 필요성으로 인해 근역의 강지진동이 관심의 대상이 되어왔으며, 최근 우리나라의 모든 구조물에 내진설계가 의무화되면서 그 필요성은 더욱 부각되고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 특정부지에서의 강지진동 합성을 위하여 경험적 그린함수 방법을 이용한 합성방법을 적용하였다. 이 합성방법은 Haskell 타입의 운동학적 지진원 모델과 동일한 지역에서 발생한 지진의 유사성 이론을 기본으로 하고 있다. 합성에 이용되는 변수들은 단층길이, 폭 및 변위지속 시간과 같은 단층변수와 모멘트간의 일관된 관계로부터 결정된다. 본 연구에서 적용된 합성방법을 1997년 3월27일 일본의 동일지역에서 차례로 발생한 2개의 중규모(ML 4.7) 및 대규모 지진(ML 6.5)에 대하여 적용하여 강지진동을 합성하고 결과를 분석하였다. 본 연구방법을 적용한 결과 중규모(ML 4.7) 오부터 관측된 강지진동을 이용하여 가속도, 속도 및 변위 성분에서 합성된 강지진동은 파형뿐만 아니라 전체 진동수 대역에서 대체적으로 실제 강지진동을 양호하게 예측하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 전체적으로 합성운동의 첨두값 역시 실제 계측된 첨두값과 비교할 때 만족스러운 정도로 일치하는 결과를 보여주었다. 특히 가속도이력의 첨두값은 단지 약 8.8%만의 차이를 보여주었다.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effects and characteristics of the height of the treatment table on the force and time of ground reaction (GR) and contact hand (CH) generated from the therapist's feet to generate thrust during spinal manipulation (SM). Design: A cross-sectional survey study Methods: Thirty-six healthy subjects were recruited. SM was performed on the ilium using a knee-high table, where the therapist felt it was easy to control the subject's posture and body shape and comfortable to generate force, as well as a relatively high thigh-high table. The force and time generated by the therapist's GR and CH were simultaneously measured through a force plate. Results: As a result, there was a significant difference in peak force and rundown force at the therapist's GR according to the table height (p < 0.05). In the therapist's CH, there was a significant difference between PreMin (preload minimum) force and peak force (p < 0.05), and there was a significant difference between the time from PreMin to peak and the time of the entire section (p < 0.05). Conclusions: As a result, the generation of increased CH force and faster thrust duration were confirmed by mobilizing the reduced GR force of the therapist to generate thrust than the relatively high table on the knee-high table.

The customary approach used in the blast vibration analysis is to derive empirical relations between the peak particle velocities of blast-induced waves and the scaled distance, and to develop patterns limiting the amounts of explosives. During the periods when excavations involving blasting were performed at sites far from residential areas and infrastructure works, this method based on empirical correlations could be effective in reducing vibrations. However, blasting procedures applied by the fast-moving mining and construction industries today can be very close to, in particular cities, residential areas, pipelines, geothermal sites, etc., and this reveals the need to minimize blast vibrations not only by limiting the use of explosives, but also employing new scientific and technological methods. The conventional methodology in minimizing blast vibrations involves the steps of i) measuring by seismograph peak particle velocity induced by blasting, ii) defining ground transmission constants between the blasting area and the target station, iii) finding out the empirical relation involving the propagation of seismic waves, and iv) employing this relation to identify highest amount of explosive that may safely be fired at a time for blasting. This paper addresses practical difficulties during the implementation of this conventional method, particularly the defects and errors in data evaluation and analysis; illustrates the disadvantages of the method; emphasizes essential considerations in case the method is implemented; and finally discusses methods that would fit better to the conditions and demands of the present time compared to the conventional method that intrinsically hosts the abovementioned disadvantages.

The test blasts were carried out by detonating some single blastholes at two upper sites of the underground storage cavern the crude oil. One was performed at the entrance site of the construction tunnel and the other at the middle part of the underground storage cavern. Based on the blast-induced vibration measured by the test blasts, we suggested the propagation equations of blasting vibration that were capable of estimating the peak particle velocity. In addition, in order to assess the stability of the nearest ground storage tank, we did the frequency analysis and the response spectrum analysis with the particle velocity-time history and the particle acceleration-time history that were measured by the test blast carried out on the entrance site of the construction tunnel. In result, it was predicted that the displacement on the highest part of the tank shell was less than the allowable displacement.

Ground vibration is one of the most undesirable effects induced by blast operation in mountain tunnels, which could cause negative impacts on the residents living nearby and adjacent structures. The ground vibration effects can be well represented by peak particle velocity (PPV) and corner frequency ($f_c$) on the ground. In this research, the PPV and the corner frequency of the mountain surface above the large-span tunnel of the new Badaling tunnel are observed by using the microseismic monitoring technique. A total of 53 sets of monitoring results caused by the blast inside tunnel are recorded. It is found that the measured values of PPV are lower than the allowable value. The measured values of corner frequency are greater than the natural frequencies of the Great Wall, which will not produce resonant vibration of the Great Wall. The vibration effects of associated parameters on the PPV and corner frequency which include blast charge, rock mass condition, and distance from the blast point to mountain surface, are studied by regression analysis. Empirical formulas are proposed to predict the PPV and the corner frequency of the Great Wall and surface structures due to blast, which can be used to determine the suitable blast charge inside the tunnel.

The purpose of the study was to analyze kinetic factors required to the three-point jump shot of the basketball games through 3-D analysis and ground reaction force(GRF) analysis. Six university male players participated in this study. The results of the study were showed that (1) resultant velocity in the center of mass(COM) was $0.84{\pm}0.27\;m/s$ since a player didn't shot a ball in the highest peak and shot ball at the moment of going up forward and vertical movement. Therefore, it is necessary to find a proper timing to shot a ball; (2) the angular velocity was largely increased in upper arm and fore arm out of the upper-limb segments and the hands had the largest angular velocity since the body is in a fixed situation and angular speed is rapidly increased by the wrist' snap with the rapid movement of upper arm and forearm at the time of release a ball; (3) it is judged that a player can shot a ball at the accurate and high release point when the player collects power vertically to the maximum by keeping GRF to the right and the rear in a proper way and by keeping the body's balance so that a large power may not be dispersed.

The present study considers a multi-span continuous bridge, isolated by lead rubber bearing (LRB). Dynamic soilstructure interaction (SSI) is modelled with the help of a simplified, sway-rocking model for different types of soil. It is well understood from the literature that SSI influences the structural responses and the isolator performance. However, the abovementioned effect of SSI also depends on the earthquake ground motion properties. It is very important to understand how the interaction between soil and structure varies with the earthquake ground motion characteristics but, as far as the knowledge of the authors go, no study has been carried out to investigate this effect. Therefore, the objectives of the present study are to investigate the influence of earthquake ground motion characteristics on: (a) the responses of a multi span bridge (isolated and non-isolated), (b) the performance of the isolator and, most importantly, (c) the soil-structure interaction. Statistical analyses are conducted by considering 14 earthquakes which are selected in such a way that they can be categorized into three frequency content groups according to their peak ground acceleration to peak ground velocity (PGA/PGV) ratio. Lumped mass model of the bridge is developed and time history analyses are carried out by solving the governing equations of motion in the state space form. The performance of the isolator is studied by comparing the responses of the bridge with those of the corresponding uncontrolled bridge (i.e., non-isolated bridge). On studying the effect of earthquake motions, it is observed that the earthquake ground motion characteristics affect the interaction between soil and structure in such a way that the responses decrease with increase in frequency content of the earthquake for all the types of soil considered. The reverse phenomenon is observed in case of the isolator performance where the control efficiencies increase with frequency content of earthquake.

지진 시 댐에 여유고 이상의 과도한 침하가 발생하는 경우 댐의 붕괴로 이어질 수 있다. 댐의 침하는 댐의 손상 예측에 중요한 지표로 사용되는 횡균열 폭과 깊이에 높은 상관성을 가진 것으로 알려져 있으므로 댐의 손상 평가에서 정확한 침하량 예측이 중요하다. 국내에서는 국외에서 수치해석을 통하여 도출된 경험적인 식이 댐의 손상 평가에 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 필댐으로 분류되는 콘크리트 표면차수벽 석괴댐(CFRD)과 코어형 석괴댐(ECRD) 대표 단면에 대한 2차원 비선형 동적 해석을 수행하여 댐마루의 침하량을 계산하였다. 입력지진파의 지진강도와 지진규모 등의 영향을 복합적으로 고려하기 위하여 20개의 계측기록을 해석에 사용하였다. 수치해석으로 계산된 결과를 바탕으로 댐마루 침하량을 예측하기 위해 지진파의 최대지반가속도, 최대지반속도, Arias Intensity, 지진규모와의 상관관계를 도출하였다. 평가 결과, 최대지반가속도에 추가적인 변수를 사용할 경우, 상관성이 크게 향상되는 것으로 나타났다.

The attenuations of peak vertical displacements are studies using a conventional least squeare regression technique for microearthquakes occurred in the Kyungsang Basin southeastern Korea. The regression model applied to bandpass-fitered ground motion data includes parameters to account for geometric spreading anelastic attenuation depending on frequency source size and station site effects. Thirty nine displacement traces obtained by integrating velocity records for six shallow local microearthquakes are used to determine attenuation characteristics in the Basin. The regression result of the peak amplitude data leads to Q(f)=59.9 {{{{ {f }^{0.955 } }} for 1.5Hz$\leq$ f $\leq$ 25 Hz. It appears that the anelastic attenuation in the Kyungsang Basin is greater than that in the Western North America Area.

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.
