Spatial variations of a seismic wave are mainly wave passage and wave scattering. Wave passage effect is produced by changed characteristics of exciting seismic input motions applied to the bedrock. Modified input motions travel horizontally with time differences determined by apparent shear wave velocity of the bedrock. In this study, wave passage effect on the seismic response of a structure-soil system is investigated by modifying the finite element software of P3DASS (Pseudo 3-Dimensional Dynamic Analysis of a Structure-soil System) to apply inconsistent (time-delayed) seismic input motions along the soft soil-bedrock interface. Study results show that foundation size affected on the seismic response of a structure excited with inconsistent input motions in the lower period range below 0.5 seconds, and seismic responses of a structure were decreased considerably in the lower period range around 0.05 seconds due to the wave passage. Also, shear wave velocity of the bedrock affected on the seismic response of a structure in the lower period range below 0.3 seconds, with significant reduction of the seismic response for smaller shear wave velocity of the bedrock reaching approximately 20% for an apparent shear wave velocity of 1000m/s at a period of 0.05 seconds. Finally, it is concluded that wave passage effect reduces the seismic response of a structure in the lower period range when the bedrock under a soft soil is soft or the bedrock is located very deeply, and wave passage is beneficial for the seismic design of a short period structure like a nuclear container building or a stiff low-rise building.

중국 지역 4개 지진에서 발생한 2~30초 범위의 레일리파를 이용하여 북한 지역의 1차원 전단파 속도구조를 구하였다. 레일리파는 남북한의 국경선 인근에 위치한 5개의 광대역 관측소(BRD, SNU, CHNB, YKB, KSA)에 양호하게 기록되었다. 다중필터분석를 이용하여 레일리파 기본모드 군속도가 계산되었고 이는 다시 위상부합필터를 적용하여 개선되었다. 2.9~3.2 km/s의 범위에 이르는 평균 분산곡선을 역산하여 전단파 속도를 구하였다. 지진원으로부터 BRD 관측소의 경로에서 추출된 4~6초 주기의 상대적으로 느린 군속도는 서해 서한만분지의 퇴적층군과 연관되었을 가능성이 있다. 14~20km의 상대적으로 깊은 지역 전단파 저속도층은 평남분지와 관련된 것으로 생각되며 낭림육괴와 평남분지에 분포하는 변성암 및 화강암체는 표면부터 14km 깊이의 빠른 전단파 속도와 일치한다.

서해안 조간대에서 24 channel 탐사기로 획득한 표면파 자료의 위상속도와 군속도를 구한다음, 이를 역산하여 그 결과를 비교하였다. 위상속도의 분산곡선은 tau-p stacking 방법에 의하여, 군속도의 분산곡선은 wavelet analysis와 Multiple Filtering Technique의 두가지 방법을 사용하여 구하였다. 위상속도의 오차가 군속도의 오차보다 더 큰 것을 확인하였다. 군속도의 경우, wavelet analysis가 Multiple Filtering Technique 보다 fundamental mode와 higher mode를 구분하는데 더 효과적이었다. 역산결과, 군속도의 fundamental mode와 1st higher mode 를 동시에 사용했을 때, 공간적 해상도가 가장 좋았다. 이연구는 천부 지반의 S파 속도 구조를 구하는데, 군속도의 higher mode를 포함한 군속도 분산곡선을 사용하는 것이 효과적임을 시사한다.

The crustal structure of the Korean Peninsula was investigated by analyzing phase velocity dispersion data of Rayleigh waves. Earthquakes recorded by three component broad-band velocity seismographs during 1999-2004 in South Korea were used in this study. The fundamental mode Rayleigh waves were extracted from vertical components of seismograms by multiple filter technique and phase match filter method. Phase velocity dispersion curves of the fundamental mode signal pairs for 14 surface wave propagation paths on the great circle in the range 10 to 80 sec were computed by two-station method. Treating the shear velocity of each layer as an independent parameter, phase velocity data of Rayleigh wave were inverted. All the result models can be explained by a rather homogeneous crust of shear-wave velocity increasing from 2.8 to 3.25 km/sec from top to about 33 km depth without any distinctive crustal discontinuities and an uppermost mantle of shear-wave velocity between 4.55 and 4.67 km/sec. Our results turn out to agree well with recent study of Cho et al. (2006 b) based on the analysis of seismic background noises to recover short-period (0.5-20 sec) Rayleigh- and Love-wave group velocity dispersion characteristics.

To investigate the shear-wave velocity structures of the Korean peninsula, exploded seismic signals were recorded for 120 s along a 294-km WNW-ESE line and 150 s along a 335-km NNW-SSE line in 2002 and 2004, respectively. First arrival times of shear wave were inverted to derive the velocity tomograms. Initial shear-wave 1-D models were built using the initial P-wave velocity models used by Kim et al. and $V_p/V_s$ ratios of the IASP91 model. The raypaths indicate existence of mid-crust interfaces at the depth of 2-3 km and 16 km. The deepest significant interface corresponding to the Moho discontinuity varies in depth from 32 km to 36 km. The refraction velocity along the interface varies from 4.4 km/s to 4.6 km/s. The velocity tomograms also indicate existence of a low-velocity zone at the depth of 7.8 km under the Okchon fold belt.

In the various fields of Civil Engineering, shear modulus is very important input parameters to design many constructions and to analyze ground behaviors. In general, a shear wave velocity profile is decided by various experiments before constructing a structure and, analysis and design are carried out by using decided shear wave velocity profile of the site. However, if civil structures are started to construct, the shear wave velocity will be increased more than before constructions because of confining pressure increase by the load of structure. The evaluation of the change in shear wave velocity profile is used very importantly when maintaining, managing, reinforcing and regenerating existing structures. In this study, a non-destructively geotechnical investigation method by using the HWAW method is applied to an evaluation of change in properties of the site according to construction. Generally, the space for experiments is narrow when underground of existing or on-going structures is evaluate, so a prompt non-destructive experiment is required. This prompt non-destructive experiment would be performed by various in-situ seismic methods. However, most of in-situ seismic methods need more space for experiments, so it is difficult to be applied. The HWAW method using the Harmonic wavelet transforms, which is based on time-frequency analysis, determines shear wave velocity profile. It consists of a source as well as short receiver spacing that is 1~3m, and is able to determine a shear wave velocity profile from surface to deep depth by one test on a space. As the HWAW method uses only the signal portion of the maximum local signal/noise ratio to determine a profile, it provides reliability shear modulus profile such as under construction or noisy situation by minimizing effects of noise from diverse vibration on a construction site or urban area. To estimate the applicability of the proposed method, field tests were performed in the change of geotechnical properties according to constructing a minimized modeling bent. Through this study, the change of geotechnical properties of the site was effectively evaluated according to construction of a structure.

이 연구에서는 유전자 알고리듬을 이용하여 수진기 함수와 표면파 위상 속도로부터 심부 퇴적층의 전단파 속도 구조를 결정하는 복합역산 방법을 제시하였다. 합성 탄성파 자료를 이용한 수치모형실험은 제시된 방법이 단지 수진기 함수만을 역산했을 때 발생하는 전단파 속도와 층 두께 사이의 trade-off와, 표면파 위상 속도만을 역산했을 때 심부구조에서의 불확실성을 피할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다 이 방법은 진앙거리 100km의 지진기록으로부터 얻은 수진기 함수들과 일본 Kanto 평원의 상시진동 배열 탐사로부터 얻은 레일리파의 위상속도에 적용되었으며, 추정된 심부구조는 선행된 굴절법 탐사 결과 및 심부 시추공 자료와 잘 일치하였다.

Knowing that the variability of soil properties is an important source of uncertainty in geotechnical analyses, we will study in this paper the effect of this variability on the seismic response of a structure within the framework of Soil Structure Interaction (SSI). We use the proposed and developed model (N2-ISS, Mekki et al., 2014). This approach is based on an extension of the N2 method by determining the capacity curve of the fixed base system oscillating mainly in the first mode, then modified to obtain the capacity curve of the system on a flexible basis using the concept of the equivalent nonlinear oscillator. The properties of the soil that we are interested in this paper will be the shear wave velocity and the soil damping. These parameters will be modeled at first, as independent random fields, then, the two parameters will be correlated. The results obtained showed the importance of the use of random field in the study of SSI systems. The variability of soil damping and shear wave velocity introduces significant uncertainty not only in the evaluation of the damping of the soil-structure system but also in the estimation of the displacement of the structure and the base-shear force.

The underlying goal of the present paper is to investigate soil and structural uncertainties on impedance functions and structural response of soil-shallow foundation-structure (SSFS) system using Monte Carlo simulations. The impedance functions of a rigid massless circular foundation resting on the surface of a random soil layer underlain by a homogeneous half-space are obtained using 1-D wave propagation in cones with reflection and refraction occurring at the layer-basement interface and free surface. Firstly, two distribution functions (lognormal and gamma) were used to generate random numbers of soil parameters (layer's thickness and shear wave velocity) for both horizontal and rocking modes of vibration with coefficients of variation ranging between 5 and 20%, for each distribution and each parameter. Secondly, the influence of uncertainties of soil parameters (layer's thickness, and shear wave velocity), as well as structural parameters (height of the superstructure, and radius of the foundation) on the response of the coupled system using lognormal distribution was investigated. This study illustrated that uncertainties on soil and structure properties, especially shear wave velocity and thickness of the layer, height of the structure and the foundation radius significantly affect the impedance functions, and in same time the response of the coupled system.

금강하구 부근의 연약지반에서 획득한 탄성파 자료(25개 shot gather)를 역산하여 2차원 S파 속도구조를 구하였다. 탐사측선위에 위치한 2개 시추홀에서 지질조사를 실시하고 표준관입시험을 실시하였다. 2차원 S파 속도구조는 대상지역의 지층이 두께 1${\sim}$3m의 상부층(S파 속도 200${\sim}$700m/sec), 두께 5${\sim}$8m의 중간 저속도층(S파 속도 100m/sec${\sim}$400m/sec)과 그 아래 S파 속도 1000m/sec 이상의 하부층으로 이루어져 있음을 보인다. 저속도층은 탐사측선의 한쪽 끝에서 다른 쪽 끝으로 가면서 그 두께가 얇아지고, 기반암의 깊이도 얕아진다. S파 속도구조와 지층의 지질, 표준관입시험 값을 검토한 결과, 저속도층은 clay층과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 사료된다. 이에 비해 Standard Penetrarion Test 값은 지층의 성분과는 연관성을 보이지 않고, 깊이에 따라 증가하는 것으로 나타난다. 이 연구는 표면파 역산이 연약지반의 S파 속도구조를 밝히는 데 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 보여준다. 또한 표면파 역산 방법은 연약지반에 흔히 존재하는 지표에 가까운 지하수면, 또는 저속도 층으로 인한 굴절파 탐사방법의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 방법을 제공한다.
