For stochastic strong ground motion simulation, frequency-dependent Q model (= $Q_{o}$ $f^{η}$) were evaluated for major geographical blocks according to the epicentral distance ranges by using a lateral Q tomography technique. The inversed Q results were used to qualitatively identify seismic albedos of each Q blocks and were compared with the previous Q studies. In addition, a functional Q model calibrated to the low frequency spectra of local earthquakes were suggested especially for use in analysing large and distant regional earthquake events.s.

The purpose of this study is grasp the problem of the gymnast, Kim, Dong-Hwa's Kip to Swallow Motion in Rings, and make up for the weak points to help him to perform a better performance. Therefore, two tryouts for $28^{th}$ Athens Olympic Games were filmed using video camera then finalized with Kinematical Analysis using 3D motion analysis program followings are the form of conclusions. 1. In the very first tryout, when he was doing a Swallow Support Scale, his CM position was high and arm slope was deduction because when he was doing Kip, the ascent velocity was low and he tried excessively to pull him on rings due to relying upon angular movement of shoulder joint. 2. When he was doing drop, he let his hip angle bend only little bit and let fall so making shoulder angle wider and maintain the level horizontally occurs strong drop motion when vertical descent is happening. 3. As a result, lowering the direction of a kick makes CM's movement path lower, increase vertical ascent velocity, and it helps to do the Swallow Support motion in short period of time. 4. After a strong drop motion, which is deep and fast, would make rope of ring shake so there is a defect that the body moves to forward area. However, it does not effect in Swallow Support Scale motion. 5. In the second tryout, trunk rotation angle and arm slope was fixed decrease while doing rotary motion. When rotary motion was happening, before the body was going under the rings, maintained his arm slope horizontally so his Swallow Support Scale motion was nearly perfect.

계기에 의한 진도산정은 보통 PGA와 진도와의 경험적인 관계식으로부터 계산되어 왔다. 그러나 일본 기상청은 지진에 의한 피해의 정도는 관측된 PGA보다는 진도와 상관이 더 크다는 점에 착안하여, 지진 계측기에 의해 실시간으로 진도를 산정(JMA 계측 진도)함으로서 지진재해를 좀 더 정확히 평가하는 방안을 채택하고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 국내에서의 JMA 계측진도의 실제적인 활용방안을 제시하는 것이다. 한반도는 강진의 발생빈도가 낮기 때문에 사용할 수 있는 강진자료가 충분치 않다. 따라서 한반도의 지진원 특성과 감쇠특성에 맞는 강진동을 추계학적인 방법으로 합성하였다. 이러한 방법으로 합성된 강진자료에 대하여 JMA 계측진도를 포함한 6개의 공학적 지진동 상수들을 계산하였다. 다음으로 계산된 상수들 사이의 경험적인 관계식을 결정하였으며, 이 상수들을 몇 개의 그룹으로 분류하기 위한 군집분석을 수행하여 지진동 상수들을 분류하였다. 그 결과, JMA 가속도 ($a_0$)는 스펙트럼 진도와 유사한 그룹으로 분류되었으며, CAV(Cumulative Absolute Velocity)와는 비교적 관계가 먼 그룹으로 나타났다. JMA 계측진도는 지진재해 평가에 있어서 다른 하나의 평가척도로서 사용이 기능할 것으로 생각된다. 한편 지진재해의 예측에 활용이 가능한 PGA와 $a_0$에 대한 감쇠식이 모멘트 규모와 진원거리의 함수로 유도되었다.

본 논문에서는 동영상을 입력하여 손으로 그린 듯 한 회화적 애니메이션을 생성하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 회화적 애니메이션에서 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나는 프레임 간 브러시 스트로크의 시간적 일관성을 유지하는 것이다. 이것은 프레임 간 브러시 스트로크들의 부드러운 움직임을 보장해주는 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 브러시 스트로크의 부드러운 움직임을 위해서 모션 영역들을 이용한다. 모션 영역은 프레임 간 객체들이 움직이는 영역을 의미하며 두 가지 타입으로 구성되어져 있다. 강한 모션 영역은 연속되는 두 장의 프레임 간 평가된 모션 벡터에 의해서 리얼 에지 및 히든 에지가 움직이는 영역을 말한다. 리얼 에지는 객체들의 윤곽선을 의미하며 히든 에지는 그라데이션 현상이 나타나는 영역에서 명암의 결의 방향을 표현하기 위한 경계를 의미한다. 약한 모션 영역은 모션이 발생한 전체 영역 중 강한 모션 영역을 뺀 영역을 말한다. 회화적 애니메이션에서 시간적 일관성은 이러한 모션 영역들을 이용하여 캔버스 위에 브러시들을 덧칠함으로써 유지될 수 있다.

Gas motion within the engine cylinder is one of the major factors controlling the fuel-air mixing and combustion processes in diesel engines. In this paper, a special swirl-chamber is designed and applied to a DI (direct injection) diesel engine to generate a strong swirl motion thus enhancing gas motion. Compression, combustion and expansion strokes of this DI diesel engine with the swirl-chamber have been simulated by CFD software. The simulation model was first validated through comparisons with experimental data and then applied to do the simulation of the spray and combustion process. The velocity and temperature field inside the cylinder showed the influences of the strong swirl motion to spray and combustion process in detail. Cylinder pressure, average temperature, heat release rate, total amount of heat release, indicated thermal efficiency, indicated fuel consumption rate and emissions of this DI diesel engine with swirl-chamber have been compared with that of the DI diesel engine with $\omega$-chamber. The conclusions show that the engine with swirlchamber has the characteristics of fast mixture formulation and quick diffusive combustion; its soot emission is 3 times less than that of a $\omega$-chamber engine; its NO emission is 3 times more than that of $\omega$-chamber engine. The results show that the DI diesel engine with the swirl-chamber has the potential to reduce emissions.

Vertical earthquake ground motion may magnify vertical dynamic responses of structures, and thus cause serious damage to bridges. As main support structures, piers and bearings play an important role in vertical seismic response analysis of girder bridges. In this study, the pier and bearing are simplified as a vertical series spring system without mass. Then, based on the assumption of small displacement, the equation of motion governing the simply-supported straight girder bridge under vertical ground motion is established including effects of vertical deformation of support structures. Considering boundary conditions, the differential quadrature method (DQM) is applied to discretize the above equation of motion into a MDOF (multi-degree-of-freedom) system. Then seismic responses of this MDOF system are calculated by a step-by-step integration method. Effects of support structures on vertical dynamic responses of girder bridges are studied under different vertical strong earthquake motions. Results indicate that support structures may remarkably increase or decrease vertical seismic responses of girder bridges. So it is of great importance to consider effects of support structures in structural seismic design of girder bridges in near-fault region. Finally, optimization of support structures to resist vertical strong earthquake motions is discussed.

The empirical Green's function method is applied to the foreshock and the mainshock of the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake to simulate strong ground motions of the mainshock and scenario earthquake at seismic stations of seven metropolises in South Korea, respectively. To identify the applicability of the method in advance, the mainshock is simulated, assuming the foreshock as the empirical Green's function. As a result of the simulation, the overall shape, the amplitude of PGA, and the duration and response spectra of the simulated seismic waveforms are similar with those of the observed seismic waveforms. Based on this result, a scenario earthquake on the causative fault of Gyeongju earthquake with a moment magnitude 6.5 is simulated, assuming that the mainshock serves as the empirical Green's function. As a result, the amplitude of PGA and the duration of simulated seismic waveforms are significantly increased and extended, and the spectral amplitude of the low frequency band is relatively increased compared with that of the high frequency band. If the empirical Green's function method is applied to several recent well-recorded moderate earthquakes, the simulated seismic waveforms can be used as not only input data for developing ground motion prediction equations, but also input data for creating the design response spectra of major facilities in South Korea.

This research evaluates the soil conditions for seismic stations situated in Romania using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR). The strong ground motion database assembled for this study consists of 179 analogue and digital strong ground motion recordings from four intermediate-depth Vrancea seismic events with $M_w{\geq}6.0$. In the first step of the analysis, the influence of the earthquake magnitude and source-to-site distance on the H/V curves is evaluated. Significant influences from both the earthquake magnitude and hypocentral distance are found especially for soil class A sites. Next, a site classification method proposed in the literature is applied for each seismic station and the soil classes are compared with those obtained from borehole data and from the topographic slope method. In addition, the success and error rates of this method are computed and compared with other studies from the literature. A more in-depth analysis of the H/V results is performed using data from seismic stations in Bucharest and a comparison of the free-field and borehole H/V curves is done for three seismic stations. The results show large differences between the free-field and the borehole curves. As a conclusion, the results from this study represent an intermediary step in the evaluation of the soil conditions for seismic stations in Romania and the need to perform more detailed soil classification analysis is highly emphasized.

Ensuring the integrity of a country's infrastructure is necessary to protect surrounding communities in case of disaster. Embankment dam systems across the US are an essential component of infrastructure, referred to as lifeline structures. Embankment dams are crucial to the survival of life and if these structures were to fail, it is imperative that states be prepared. Southern California is particularly concerned with the stability of embankment dams due to the frequent seismic activity that occurs in the state. The purpose of this study was to create a numerical model of an existing embankment dam simulated under seismic loads using previously recorded data. The embankment dam that was studied in Los Angeles, California was outfitted with accelerometers provided by the California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program that have recorded strong motion data for decades and was processed by the Center for Engineering Strong Motion Data to be used in future engineering applications. The accelerometer data was then used to verify the numerical model that was created using finite element modeling software RS2. The results from this study showed Puddingstone Dam's simulated response was consistent with that experienced during previous earthquakes and therefore validated the predicted behavior from the numerical model. The study also identified areas of weakness and instability on the dam that posed the greatest risk for its failure. Following this study, the numerical model can now be used to predict the dam's response to future earthquakes, develop plans for its remediation, and for emergency response in case of disaster.
