국내외에서 점토층이나 준설토 등이 있는 연약지반을 개량하고, 그 지반위에 구조물을 건설하는 수요는 점차적으로 늘어나고 있다. 그리고 이러한 개발과 더불어 태풍, 산사태, 지진 등과 같은 자연재해의 빈도와 규모도 증가하고 있다. 이러한 자연재해로 인한 피해를 예방하기 위한 방법 중 하나가 지반개량공법이다. 본 연구에서는 쇄석을 띠기초 형식으로 설치하였을 때의 주변지반의 가속도 변화를 1-G 진동대 실험을 이용하여 분석하였다. 점토를 이용하여 지반을 조성하고 기초는 쇄석을 띠형식으로 설치하였다. 주기가 다른 입력지진파에 대해 응답가속도와 응답스펙트럼을 분석하였다. 쇄석 띠기초와의 인접거리에 따른 가속도 변화를 분석하여 지진시 쇄석 띠기초가 주변지반의 가속도 변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. Hachinohe 지진파 결과에서는 쇄석띠기초와의 거리에 비해 가속도가 큰 감소는 없지만, 두가지 지진파에 대한 최대응답가속도가 쇄석띠기초와의 거리에 반비례하였다. 응답스펙트럼 분석결과, 장주기와 단주기 입력파에서의 감쇠되는 주기가 달랐으며, 이와 같은 응답스펙트럼 변화가 가속도의 최대가속도값에 영향을 준 것으로 판단된다. Hachinohe 지진파에서는 쇄석띠기초와 멀어질수록 0.08~0.5초 사이의 주기에서 감쇠가 컸으며, Northridge 입력파에서는 쇄석띠기초와 멀어질수록 0.2초 이내의 주기에서 감쇠가 컸다.

The most recent shaking experiences have demonstrated that the predictions of the seismic models are not always in agreement with the registered responses, especially in the face of extreme earthquakes. Records collected from 1960 to 2011 at a rock-like site are used to develop a neural network that permits to estimate peak ground accelerations via the magnitude, the focal depth, the site-source distance and a seismogenic zone. The neural model is applied to the 8th and 19th September 2017 events that hit Mexican territory and the obtained results show that the network is flexible enough to work appropriately to various conditions of intensity and sites-sources with remarkably predictive capacity. The neural-attenuation curves are compared with those obtained from Ground Motion Prediction Equations and their performance is assessed for events, in addition to the devastating Mexican events, from Japan, Taiwan, Chile and USA.

In this study, the characteristics of site amplification at seismic observation stations in Japan were estimated using the attenuation relationship of each station's response spectrum. Ground motion records observed after 32 earthquakes were employed to construct the attenuation relationship. The station correction factor at each KiK-net station was compared to the transfer functions between the base rock and the surface. For each station, the plot of the station correction factor versus the period was similar in shape to the graphs of the transfer function (amplitude ratio versus period). Therefore, the station correction factors are effective for evaluating site amplifications considering the period of ground shaking. In addition, the station correction factors were evaluated with respect to the average shear wave velocities using a geographic information system (GIS) dataset. Lastly, the site amplifications for specific periods were estimated throughout Japan.

Strong ground motion attenuation relationship represents a comprehensive trend of ground shakings at sites with distances from the source, geology, local soil conditions, and others. It is necessary to develop an attenuation relationship with careful considerations of characteristics of the target area for reliable seismic hazard/risk assessments. In the study, 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. In the meantime, a few strong ground motion attenuation relationships are proposed and introduced in HAZUS, which have been designed for the Western United States and the Central and Eastern United States. 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. Reliability of the assessment will be improved by using an appropriate attenuation relation. 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). Our preliminary estimates show 15.6% damage of houses, shelter needs for about three thousands residents, and 75 life losses in the study area for the scenario events occurring at 2 A.M. Approximately 96% of hospitals will be in normal operation in 24 hours from the proposed event. Losses related to houses will be more than 114 million US dollars. Application of the improved methodology for loss estimation in Korea will help decision makers for planning disaster responses and hazard mitigation.

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.

In this paper, the peak horizontal ground acceleration over the bedrock (PGA) is calculated by a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA). For this reason, at first, all the occurred earthquakes in a radius of 200 km of Sanandaj city have been gathered. After elimination of the aftershocks and foreshocks, the main earthquakes were taken into consideration to calculate the seismic parameters (SP) by Kijko (2000) method. The seismotectonic model of the considered region and the seismic sources of the region have been modeled. In this research, Sanandaj and its vicinity has been meshed as an 8 (vertical lines) * 10 (horizontal lines) and the PGA is calculated for each point of the mesh using the logic tree method and the five attenuation relationships (AR) with different weighted coefficient. These calculations have been performed by the Poisson distribution of four hazard levels. Then by using it, four regional maps of the seismic hazard regions have been provided for Sanandaj and its vicinity. The results show that the maximum and minimum value of PGA for the return periods of 75, 225, 475, 2475 years are (0.114, 0.074) (0.157, 0.101), (0.189, 0.121) and (0.266, 0.170), respectively.

이중 주파수(Dual Frequency)를 사용한 Prototype형 천해 지층 탐사기를 사용하여 얻은 탐사 기록지가 제시되었다. 이중 주파수로는 3.5/100KHz 혹은 15/100KHz를 이용해서 고주파수에 의한 고해상도(High Resolution)을 얻고 동시에 저주파수(3.5~15KHz)에 의한 심층 투과력을 높이는데 본 연구의 목적이 있다. 특히 탐지하는 목표물이 Fresnel 반경에 비해서 매우 작을 때는 쌍곡선형 회절무늬(Hyperbolic Diffraction)가 나타나기 때문에 쉽게 목표물을 찾을 수 있다. 감쇠상수가 큰 모래층은 작은 감쇠상수를 갖고 있는 점토보다 지진파의 투과력을 약하게 만든다. 이와같이 이중 주파수의 동시 운용은 해저 지질. 모래와 점토(Silt/Clay) 분포 오니토 및 해양고고학 유물 탐사에 크게 활용할 수 있다.

The design response spectrum presented in the seismic design standard reflects the characteristics of the tectonic environment at a site. However, since the design response spectrum does not represent the ground motion with a specific earthquake magnitude or distance, input ground motions for response history analysis need to be selected reasonably. It is appropriate to use observed ground motions recorded in Korea for the seismic design. However, recently recorded ground motions in the Gyeongju (2016) or Pohang (2017) earthquakes are not compatible with the design response spectrum. Therefore, it is necessary to convert the recorded ground motion in Korea to a model similar to the design response spectrum. In this study, several approaches to adjust the spectral acceleration level at each period range were tested. These are the intrinsic and scattering attenuation considering the earthquake environment, magnitude, distance change by the green function method, and a rupture propagation direction's directivity effect. Using these variables, the amplification ratio for the representative natural period was regressed. Finally, the optimum condition compatible with the design response spectrum was suggested, and the validation was performed by converting the recorded ground motion.
