The design response spectrum generally used in Korea is decided by the site coefficients determined by deterministic methodology, while it is based on probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. The design response spectrum has to be made using probabilistic method which includes uncertainties of ground motions and ground properties for coincide with probabilistic methodology of seismic hazard analysis. In this study probabilistic site coefficients were developed, which were defined by the results of site response analysis using a set of ground motion that was compatible with present seismic hazard map. The design response spectrum defined by probabilistic seismic coefficients resulted in lower spectrum in long period area and larger spectrum in short period area. Also, the maximum spectral accelerations in site class D and site class E were lower than one in site class C while in the previous design response spectrum the maximum spectral acceleration increased from site class A to E.

In this study, seismic analysis is performed using simplified method, analytical solution and numerical analysis based on one-dimensional seismic site response analysis. The results show that analytical solution of tunnel response is predicted more conservative than numerical solution. And simplified method is not appropriate for seismic analysis of tunnel response. In addition, it is reasonable to determine shear-modulus reduction ratio performing seismic site response analysis to consider ground nonlinear-behavior.

The site effects of local geological conditions on seismic ground motion are performed using 2D numerical method. For the analysis, a numerical method far ground response analysis using FE-BE coupling method is developed. The total system is divided into two parts so called far field and near field. The far field is modeled by boundary element formulation using the multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution that satisfied radiational condition of wave. And this is coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the seismic response analysis, the results are compared with those of commercial code. As a result, it is shown that the developed method can be an efficient numerical method to solve the seismic response analysis of the site effect in 2D problem.

국내에서는 지반의 설계응답스펙럼을 확률론적으로 생성한 지진재해도와 결정론적으로 유도된 지진계수를적용하여 생성한다. 지진재해도와 지진계수는 호환되지 않지만, 현 설계기준은 이런 근본적인 비호환성을 무시하고 있다. 지진재해도와 지진계수를 동일한 확률론적 기반에서 생성한다면 이와 같은 문제를 극복할 수 있지만, 기존의 방법으로는 지진계수를 확률론적으로 생성할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 동반논문에서 신(新) PSHA의 결과물로써 생성된 지진기록을 입력지진파로 활용하여 1차원 등가선형 지반응답 해석을 수행하였으며 이의 결과를 기반으로 등재해스펙트럼을 생성하였다. 등재해스펙트럼의 또 한가지 장점은 지반물성치의 불확실성과 임의성이 과학적으로 고려되었다는 점이다. 등재해스펙트럼은 나아가 확률론적인 지진계수를 도출하는데 활용되었다. 확률론적인 지진계수를 내진설계기준에서 제시된 지진계수를 비교한 결과, 확률론적으로 계산된 지진계수는 결정론적으로 계산된 결과와 상당한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The seismic slope stability is most often evaluated by the pseudo-static limit analysis, in which the earthquake loading is simplified as static inertial loads acting in horizontal and/or vertical directions. The transient loading is represented by constant acceleration via the pseudostatic coefficients. The result of a pseudostatic analysis is governed by the selection of the value of the pseudostatic coefficient. However, selection of the value is very difficult and often done in an ad hoc manner without a sound physical reasoning. In addition, the maximum acceleration is commonly estimated from the design guideline, which cannot accurately estimate the dynamic response of a slope. There is a need to perform a 2D dynamic analysis to properly define the dynamic response characteristics. This paper develops the modified one-dimensional seismic site response analysis. The modified site response analysis adjusts the density of the layers to simulate the change in mass and weight of the layers of the slope with depth. Multiple analyses are performed at various locations within the slope to estimate the change in seismic response of the slope. The calculated peak acceleration profiles with depth from the developed procedure are compared to those by the two-dimensional analyses. Comparisons show that the two methods result in remarkable match.

The main object of this study is to evaluate the seismic response effects on a reinforced concrete building isolated by triple concave friction pendulum (TCFP) bearings. The site-response effects arise from the difference in the local soil conditions at the support points of the buildings. The local soil conditions are, therefore, considered as soft, medium and firm; separately. The results on the responses of the isolated building are compared with those of the non-isolated. The building model used in the time history analysis, which is a two-dimensional and eight-storey reinforced concrete building with and without the seismic isolation bearings and/or the local soil conditions, is composed of two-dimensional moment resisting frames for superstructure and of plane elements featuring plane-stress for substructure. The TCFP bearings for isolating the building are modelled as of a series arrangement of the three single concave friction pendulum (SCFP) bearings. In order to investigate the efficiency of both the seismic isolation bearings and the site-response effects on the buildings, the time history analyses are elaborately conducted. It is noted that the site-response effects are important for the isolated building constructed on soft, medium or firm type local foundation soil. The results of the analysis demonstrate that the site-response has significant effects on the response values of the structure-seismic isolation-foundation soil system.

Free-field ground motion during earthquake is significantly affected by the local site conditions and it is essential in the seismic design to perform the accurate site-specific ground response analysis. In this paper, one-dimensional seismic characteristics of waste landfill are studied based on the vertical propagation of horizontal shear waves through the column of soil/waste. Seismic response analysis is peformed for short-period, long-period and artificial earthquake ground motions using a computer program for seismic response analysis of horizontally layered soil deposits. The computed peak ground accelerations are compared with the values calculated according to Korean seismic design guidelines. The analysis result shows that the long-period earthquake causes the largest peak ground acceleration while the artificial earthquake results in the smallest one.

지진계수는 지진재해도 함께 지표면에서의 설계응답스펙트럼을 생성하는데 사용된다. 지진계수는 일반적으로 결정론적인 방법으로 도출되는 반면 지진재해도는 확률론적으로 계산되어 이들은 혼용될 수 없으나, 국내외 내진설계기준에서는 이들을 명확한 근거없이 혼용하고 있다. 이와 같은 근본적인 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 기존의 지진재해분석과 암반노두에서는 동일한 결과를 재현하되 지반응답해석 기능을 추가하여 토층에서의 부지증폭현상을 고려한 확률론적인 지진계수를 도출할 수 있는 신(新) 지진재해분석 기법을 적용하였다. 신(新) 지진재해분석 기법의 또다른 장점은 지반의 불확실성과 임의성을 합리적으로 고려할 수 있다는 점이다. 본 연구에서 계산된 확률론적 지진계수는 내진설계기준(II)과 국내에서 제안된 지진계수 세트들과 비교하여 차이점을 분석하였다. 비교 결과, 내진설계기준(II)과는 현격한 차이가 있는 반면, 또다른 지진계수와는 일부 지반분류에서만 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났다.

The evaluation of the seismic hazard for a given site is to estimate the seismic ground motion at the surface. This is the result of the combination of the action of the seismic source, which generates seismic waves, the propagation of these waves between the source and the site, and site local conditions. The aim of this work is to evaluate the sensitivity of dynamic response of extended structures to spatial variable ground motions (SVGM). All factors of spatial variability of ground motion are considered, especially local site effect. In this paper, a method is presented to simulate spatially varying earthquake ground motions. The scheme for generating spatially varying ground motions is established for spatial locations on the ground surface with varying site conditions. In this proposed method, two steps are necessary. Firstly, the base rock motions are assumed to have the same intensity and are modelled with a filtered Tajimi-Kanai power spectral density function. An empirical coherency loss model is used to define spatial variable seismic ground motions at the base rock. In the second step, power spectral density function of ground motion on surface is derived by considering site amplification effect based on the one dimensional seismic wave propagation theory. Several dynamics analysis of a curved viaduct to various cases of spatially varying seismic ground motions are performed. For comparison, responses to uniform ground motion, to spatial ground motions without considering local site effect, to spatial ground motions with considering coherency loss, phase delay and local site effects are also calculated. The results showed that the generated seismic signals are strongly conditioned by the local site effect. In the same sense, the dynamic response of the viaduct is very sensitive of the variation of local geological conditions of the site. The effect of neglecting local site effect in dynamic analysis gives rise to a significant underestimation of the seismic demand of the structure.
