This study proposes a methodology for the regional seismic risk assessment of structural damage to buildings in Korea based on evaluating individual buildings, considering inconsistency between the administrative district border and grid lines to define seismic hazard. The accuracy of seismic hazards was enhanced by subdividing the current 2km-sized grids into ones with a smaller size. Considering the enhancement of the Korean seismic design code in 2005, existing seismic fragility functions for seismically designed buildings are revised by modifying the capacity spectrum according to the changes in seismic design load. A seismic risk index in building damage is defined using the total damaged floor area considering building size differences. The proposed seismic risk index was calculated for buildings in 29 administrative districts in 'A' city in Korea to validate the proposed assessment algorithm and risk index. In the validation procedure, sensitivity analysis was performed on the grid size, quantitative building damage measure, and seismic fragility function update.

Capacity spectrum method(CSM) of ATC-40(1996) and displacement coefficient method(DCM)of FEMA-273(1997) are applied to evaluate the seismic performance of bridges. In this study, equivalent response is obtained from nonlinear static analysis for the 3spans continues bridge and nonlinear maximum displacement response is calculated using CSM and DCM. Nonlinear maximum displacement response of DCM is larger than this of CSM. It is method that DCM can evaluate target displacement and ductility of structural to be easy and simple, but tend to overestimate the maximum displacement response. Therefore, this method is mainly used at preparation design level to evaluate the structural response. It is not desirable to evaluate the seismic performance using DCM.

Most bridges have expansion joints to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction without inducing large forces in the bridges. To evaluate the effects of earthquake-induced at expansion joints of concrete bridges, the first part of this paper deals with a collinear impact between concrete segments, which have the same cross section but different lengths. Especially, impact force, momentum, strain energy and kinetic energy are formulated in mathematically. These results are then used in the second part of this paper to simulate a realistic yet simple analysis of seismic pounding in concrete bridges. Analysis of seismic pounding in idealized concrete bridges is carried out by using a simple lumped-mass model and rationally determined values of the coefficient of restitution and the duration of impact.

It was performed that the seismic response analysis using seismic magnitude and concrete dam type(Model-1, Model-2) on dynamic behavior properties of concrete dam. As a results of each seismic magnitude acted on concrete dam, the maximum response acceleration at dam crest was amplified about 3, 5-4 times and maximum displacement and stress at dam crest of Model-2 was larger than Model-1. So, it can be recommended that codified-seismic coefficient method is proper in case of seismic design of concrete dam and Model-1 is better than Model 2 in consideration of stability in displacement and stress of design of concrete dam.

Calculating the seismic displacement of retaining walls has an important role in the optimum design of these structures. Also, studying the effect of surcharge is important for the calculation of active pressure as well as permanent displacements of the wall. In this regard, some researchers have investigated active pressure; but, unfortunately, there are few investigations on the seismic displacement of retaining walls with surcharge. In this research, using limit analysis and upper bound theorem, permanent seismic displacement of retaining walls with surcharge was analyzed for sliding and overturning failure mechanisms. Thus, a new formulation was presented for calculating yield acceleration, critical angle of failure wedge, and permanent displacement of retaining walls with surcharge. Also, effects of surcharge, its location and other factors such as height of the wall and internal friction angle of soil on the amount of seismic displacements were investigated. Finally, designing charts were presented for calculating yield acceleration coefficient and angle of failure wedge.

In this study, comprehensive seismic performance analysis were performed for the concrete face rockfill dam(CFRD) designed seismic coefficient method(0. 10g). The static and pseudo-static FEM analysis, limited equilibrium method and dynamic FEM analysis were used for the dam safety analysis. The results of the seismic analysis were that the minimum factor of safety of down slope was 1.2 and horizontal displacement increased 8cm and vertical displacement increased 1.2cm at dam crest rather than those of static condition. The model dam did not show any serious tai lure in seismic stabi1ity for 0.13g. And much more research is still necessary in seismic safety of CFRD.

Usually the analyses of structures are carried out by assuming the base of structures to be fixed. However, the soil beneath foundation alters the earthquake loading and varies the response of structure. Hence, it is not realistic to analyze structures by considering it to be fixed. The importance of soil-structure interaction was realized from the past failures of massive structures by neglecting the effect of soil in seismic analysis. The analysis of massive structures requires soil flexibility to be considered to avoid failure and ensure safety. Present study, considers the seismic behavior of multi-storey reinforced concrete narrow and wide buildings of various heights with and without shear wall supported on raft foundation incorporating the effect of soil flexibility. Analysis of the three dimensional models of six different shear wall positions founded on four different soils has been carried out using finite element software LS DYNA. The study investigates the differences in spectral acceleration coefficient (Sa/g), base shear and storey shear obtained following the seismic provisions of Indian standard code IS: 1893 (2002) (IS) and International building code IBC: 2012 (IBC). The base shear values obtained as per IBC provisions are higher than IS values.

Modern seismic codes rely on performance-based seismic design methodology which requires that the structures withstand inelastic deformation. Many studies have focused on the inelastic deformation ratio evaluation (ratio between the inelastic and elastic maximum lateral displacement demands) for various inelastic spectra. This paper investigates the inelastic response spectra through the ductility demand ${\mu}$, the yield strength reduction factor $R_y$, and the inelastic deformation ratio. They depend on the vibration period T, the post-to-preyield stiffness ratio ${\alpha}$, the peak ground acceleration (PGA), and the normalized yield strength coefficient ${\eta}$ (ratio of yield strength coefficient divided by the PGA). A new inelastic deformation ratio $C_{\eta}$ is defined; it is related to the capacity curve (pushover curve) through the coefficient (${\eta}$) and the ratio (${\alpha}$) that are used as control parameters. A set of 140 real ground motions is selected. The structures are bilinear inelastic single degree of freedom systems (SDOF). The sensitivity of the resulting inelastic deformation ratio mean values is discussed for different levels of normalized yield strength coefficient. The influence of vibration period T, post-to-preyield stiffness ratio ${\alpha}$, normalized yield strength coefficient ${\eta}$, earthquake magnitude, ruptures distance (i.e., to fault rupture) and site conditions is also investigated. A regression analysis leads to simplified expressions of this inelastic deformation ratio. These simplified equations estimate the inelastic deformation ratio for structures, which is a key parameter for design or evaluation. The results show that, for a given level of normalized yield strength coefficient, these inelastic displacement ratios become non sensitive to none of the rupture distance, the earthquake magnitude or the site class. Furthermore, they show that the post-to-preyield stiffness has a negligible effect on the inelastic deformation ratio if the normalized yield strength coefficient is greater than unity.

1995년 일본에서 발생한 고베지진으로 인하여 고베항에 대규모 피해가 발생하면서, 기존 내진설계 기준의 문제점이 제기됨에 따라 기존의 유사정적해석 및 허용응력 설계법으로는 Level II(규모 6.5) 수준의 지진에 대하여 항만 구조물 설계가 불가능한 사실이 지적되어 내진설계에 있어서 성능기반 설계법의 필요성이 대두되었다. 지진이 빈번한 일본 및 미국의 경우 항만시설에 대한 가장 선진화된 설계기준을 도입하여 적용하고 있으며, 기존 내진설계기준을 성능기반설계로 전환하였다. 1999년 이후 현재까지 국내 항만내진설계법은 내진설계가 필요한 시설과 이들의 내진등급에 대한 정의가 불명확한 점에 대해 연구를 통해 필요한 시설과 내진등급에 대한 정의를 확립하고 실험적 검증을 바탕으로 국내 실정에 부합한 성능기반 내진설계법을 확립하고 있는 단계이다. 본 연구에서 개발한 방파제의 성능기반 내진설계법은 원지반의 지표면에서의 가속도 시간이력을 고속 푸리에 변환(FFT) 후 방파제의 해당성능수준별 최대허용변위에 대응한 주파수 특성을 보정해주는 필터처리를 하였고, 필터 처리된 스펙트럼을 다시 가속도 시간이력으로 역변환(IFFT) 하여 가속도 최대값을 산정함으로써 변위를 고려한 등가정적해석을 위한 수평지진계수를 산정하였다. 또한 국내 지진 수준에 맞는 방파제의 성능기반 내진설계법의 검증을 위해서 실험과 수치해석을 수행하였다.

Recently, performance based seismic design (PBSD) methods have been suggested in numerous forms and widely studied as a new concept of seismic design. The PBDSs are far from being practical method due to complexity of algorithms resided in the design philosophy. In this paper, optimal seismic design method based on displacement coefficient method (DCM) described in FEMA 273 is developed. As an optimizer simple genetic algorithms are used for implementations. In the optimization problem formulated in this Paper, strength design criteria stiffness design criteria, and nonlinear response criteria specified in DCM are included in design constraints. The optimal performance based design(OPBD) method is applied to seismic design of a 3-story two-dimensional steel frame structures.
