  • Different types of gas reservoir such as Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) are among the strategic infrastructures, and have great importance for any government or their private owners. To keep the tank and its contents safe during earthquakes especially if the contents are of hazardous or flammable materials; using seismic protection systems such as base isolator can be considered as an effective solution. However, the major deficiency of this system can be the large deformation in the isolation level which may lead to the failure of bearing system. In this paper, as a solution, the efficacy of an optimally designed combined vibration control system, the combined laminated rubber isolator and rotational friction damper, is investigated to evaluate the enhancement of an existing metal tank response under both far- and near-field earthquakes. Responses like impulsive and convective accelerations, base shear, and sloshing height are studied herein. The probabilistic framework is used to consider the uncertainties in the structural modeling, as well as record-to-record variability. Due to the high calculation cost of probabilistic methods, a simplified structural model is used. By using the Mont-Carlo simulation approach, it is revealed that this combined isolation system is a highly reliable system which provides considerable enhancement in the performance of reservoir, not only leads to the reduction of probability of catastrophic failure of the tank but also decrease the reservoir damage during the earthquake. Moreover, the relative displacement of the isolation level is controlled very well by this combined system.

  • 수동형 제진장치를 이용하는 제진구조는 수년간 개발이 지속되고 있으며, 1990년대 중반이후로 여러 나라들에서 실무적인 적용이 빠르게 증가되고 있다. 국내의 경우 이러한 제진장치 중 강재이력형 댐퍼가 비교적 저렴한 비용과 설치와 관리가 용이하다는 이유로 건물의 내진설계를 위하여 보편적으로 많이 적용되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 건물의 지진응답을 개선하기 위하여 적용된 소위 카고메댐퍼로 불리우는 등방성 강재이력형 댐퍼(Isotropic Hysteretic Metallic Damper, IHMD)의 유효성에 대한 해석적인 사례연구를 제시하고 있다. 연구대상 건물은 18층 규모의 철근콘크리트 라멘조 아파트건물로 해석결과를 통하여 IHMD의 실효성을 실증적으로 보여주고 있다. 해석결과는 IHMD가 건물의 지진응답을 줄일 수 있는 매우 효과적인 방법임을 검증하고 있다.

  • 본 연구에서는 수동, 능동, 반능동 및 복합 시스템과 같은 다양한 제어시스템의 효율성을 미국토목학회에서 제시한 지진하중을 받는 첫번째 벤치 마크 사장교을 이용해 조사하였다. 이 벤치마크 문제는 2003년 완공 예정으로 미국 Mississippi주에 건설중인 Bill Emerson Memorial교를 대상 구조물로 고려하였다. Bill Emerson Memorial 교는 New Madrid 지진구역에 위치하고 Wississippi 강을 횡단하는 주요 교량이라는 점 때문에 설계 단계에서부터 내진설계가 고려되었다. 사장교의 상세한 설계도면에 기초해 교량의 복잡한 거동을 나타낼 수 있는 3차원 선형모델과 각 제어시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위한 18개의 평가기준이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 네 종류의 수동제어 시스템, 한 종류의 능동제어 시스템, 두 종류의 반능동제어 시스템 밑 세 종류의 복합제어 시스템이 고려되었다. 수치해석 결과 모든 제어시스템은 지진하중을 받는 벤치마크 사장교의 응답을 감소시켰다. 그러나, 수동제어 시스템의 경우에는 뛰어난 제어성능을 얻기 위해서 다른 제어시스템에 비해 커다란 제어력을 필요로했다. 강인성에 관한 수지해석 결과에 따르면, 수동, 반능동 및 복합제어 시스템이 구조물 강성의 불확실성에 대해 강인함을 보였다. 따라서, 반능동 및 복합제어 시스템이 토목구조물과 같은 대형구조물의 실제 적용에 보다 적절하다.

  • This paper presents the experimental application of a new method for seismic vulnerability assessment of buildings recently introduced in literature, the SMAV (Seismic Model Ambient Vibration) methodology with reference to their operational limit state. The importance of this kind of evaluation arises from the civil protection necessity that some buildings, considered strategic for seismic emergency management, should retain their functionality also after a destructive earthquake. They do not suffer such damage as to compromise the operation within a framework of assessment of the overall capacity of the urban system. To this end, for the characterization of their operational vulnerability, a Structural Operational Index (IOPS) has been considered. In particular, the dynamic environmental vibrations of the two considered strategic buildings, the fire station and the town hall building of a small town in the South of Italy, have been monitored by positioning accelerometers in well-defined points. These measurements were processed through modern Operational Modal Analysis techniques (OMA) in order to identify natural frequencies and modal shapes. Once these parameters have been determined, the structural operational efficiency index of the buildings has been determined evaluating the seismic vulnerability of the strategic structures analyzed. his study aimed to develop a model to accurately predict the acceleration of structural systems during an earthquake.

  • The possibility of earthquakes in vulnerable regions indicates that efficient technique is required for seismic protection of buildings. During the recent decades, the concept is moving towards the insertion of base isolation on seismic prone buildings. So, investigation of structural behavior is a burning topic for buildings to be isolated in base level by bearing device. This study deals with the incorporation of base isolation system and focuses the changes of structural responses for different types of Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) isolators. A number of sixteen model buildings have been simulated selecting twelve types of bearing systems as well as conventional fixed-base (FB) scheme. The superstructures of the high-rise buildings are represented by finite element assemblage adopting multi-degree of freedoms. Static and dynamic analyses are carried out for FB and base isolated (BI) buildings. The dynamic analysis in finite element package has been performed by the nonlinear time history analysis (THA) based on the site-specific seismic excitation and compared employing eminent earthquakes. The influence of the model type and the alteration in superstructure behavior of the isolated buildings have been duly assessed. The results of the 3D multistory structures show that the lateral forces, displacement, inertia and story accelerations of the superstructure of the seismic prone buildings are significantly reduced due to bearing insertion. The nonlinear dynamic analysis shows 12 to 40% lessening in base shear when LRB is incorporated leading to substantial allowance of horizontal displacement. It is revealed that the LRB isolators might be potential options to diminish the respective floor accelerations, inertia, displacements and base shear whatever the condition coincides. The isolators with lower force intercept but higher isolation period is found to be better for decreasing base shear, floor acceleration and inertia force leading to reduction of structural and non-structural damage. However, LRB with lower isolator period seems to be more effective in dropping displacement at bearing interface aimed at reducing horizontal shift of building structure.

  • 연구목적: 2016년 9월 경주 이후 구조물 및 비구조물의 지진 안전성 및 내진성능에 관한 문제가 이슈화 되고 있으며, 특히 배관 시스템의 경우 구조요소 보다 지진 발생시 내진성능에 있어서 취약하다고 볼 수 있다. 스프링클러 배관 시스템과 같은 비구조적 구성요소의 손상으로 인해 지진 발생 및 이후에 상당한 경제적 손실이나 생명 손실을 초래 할 수 있다. 연구방법: 본 연구는 Triple Friction Pendulum Bearings (TPBs)을 설치한 건물 배관 시스템을 이용한 소방 배관 시스템의 내진성능평가를 제시한다. Kobe, Kocaeli, GyeongJu 지진을 고려하여 지반 운동의 불확실성을 고려하였다. 연구결과: 빌딩 시스템과 파이핑 시스템의 첫 번째 모드는 각각 약 5.8Hz와 약 2.742Hz로 나타났으며, 또한 TPBs 시스템이 적용된 배관 시스템의 최대 변위는 Kobe, Kocaeli 및 GyeongJu 지진의 경우 각각 49%, 14.4%, 21.5%가 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 따라서 건물 배관 시스템에서 지진 격리 시스템을 사용하면 지진이 심할 때 TPB가 없는 일반적으로 설치된 걸물 배관 시스템보다 지진 위험을 줄일 수 있다.

  • The results of the application of shape memory alloy (SMA) prestressing devices on an aqueduct are presented in this paper. The aqueduct was built in 1747 to provide water to the city of Larnaca and to its port. Because of its importance to the cultural heritage of Cyprus, the aqueduct has been selected as one of the case-study monuments in the project Wide-Range Non-Intrusive devices toward Conservation of Historical Monuments in the Mediterranean Area (WIND-CHIME). The Department of Antiquities of Cyprus, acting in a pioneering way, have given their permission to apply the devices in order to investigate their effectiveness in providing protection to the monument against probable catastrophic effects of earthquake excitation. The dynamic characteristics of the structure were determined in two separate occasions and computational models were developed that matched very closely the dynamic characteristics of the structure. In this paper the experimental setup and the measured changes in the dynamic characteristics of the monument after the application of the SMA devices are described.

  • This paper presents the LRB-based hybrid base isolation systems employing additional active/semiactive control devices for seismic protection of cable-stayed bridges by examining the ASCE first generation benchmark problem for a cable-stayed bridge. In this study, ideal hydraulic actuators (HAs) and ideal magnetorheological dampers (MRDs) are considered as additional active and semiactive control devices, respectively. Numerical simulation results show that all the hybrid base isolation systems are effective in reducing the structural responses of the benchmark cable-stayed bridge under the historical earthquakes considered. The simulation results also demonstrate that the hybrid base isolation system employing semiactive MRBs is robust to the stiffness uncertainty of the structure, while the hybrid system with active HAs is not. Therefore, the LRB-based hybrid base isolation system employing MRDs could be more appropriate in real applications for full-scale civil infrastructures.
