지하역사의 대부분은 지진에 대비한 내진설계가 거의 수행되지 않음으로 인하여 일정규모 이상의 지진이 발생할 경우 대규모 인명 및 재산피해가 우려된다. 지중구조물인 지하역사의 신뢰도 높은 내진성능 평가를 위하여 지진하중 재하 시 지반과 구조물의 상호작용이 고려된 거동의 고찰과 검증이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수도권 소재의 실제 지하역사에 대하여, 상사비 1/60 스케일의 축소모형 지하역사 구조물 시험체에 장주기인 Kobe지진파와 단주기인 Northridge지진파를 적용한 원심모형 진동대 시험을 수행하였다, 원심모형시험결과와 응답변위법, 동일단면에 대해 SHAKE91에 의한 지반 및 구조물의 상대변위, 구조물의 모멘트에 대하여 비교 분석함으로써 지하역사의 내진성능을 평가하고자 하였다.

Structures in a nuclear power system are designed to be elastic even under an earthquake excitation. However a structural component such as an isolator shows inelastic behavior inherently. For the seismic assessment of nonlinear structures, response history analysis should be performed. In this study, the response of base isolation system was analyzed by response history analysis for the seismic performance assessment. Firstly, several seismic assessment criteria for a nuclear power plant structure were reviewed for the nonlinear response history analysis. Based on these criteria, the spectrum matched ground motion generation method modifying a seed earthquake ground motion time history was adjusted. Using these spectrum matched accelerograms, the distribution of displacement responses of the simplified base isolation system was evaluated. The resulting seismic responses excited by the modified ground motion time histories and the synthesized time history generated by stochastic approach were compared. And the response analysis of the base isolation system considering the different intensities in each orthogonal direction was performed.

산업시설이 국가 경제에 기여하는 바를 고려할 때 지진에 대한 운전성 확보는 매우 중요하다. 그러나, 현행 내진설계의 기본 개념은 대규모 지진에 대해 주로 시설물의 연성거동을 허용하며 붕괴방지를 목적으로 구조적인 안전성만을 고려한다. 산업시설의 운전성 확보를 위해, 산업시설물의 구조거동 특성에 따라 운전성을 유지하기 위한 내진성능수준이 다양할 수 있으며, 이를 만족하기 위한 내진설계방법이 필요하다.본 연구에서는 평저형 저장탱크에 대한 비선형 응답이력 해석으로 비선형 지진거동 특성(R-μ-T)을 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 신뢰도 기반의 성능기반 내진설계 방법을 새롭게 제안하였다.

Referring to the formulation of physical stochastic optimal control of structures and the scheme of optimal polynomial control, a nonlinear stochastic optimal control strategy is developed for a class of structural systems with hysteretic behaviors in the present paper. This control strategy provides an amenable approach to the classical stochastic optimal control strategies, bypasses the dilemma involved in It$\hat{o}$-type stochastic differential equations and is applicable to the dynamical systems driven by practical non-stationary and non-white random excitations, such as earthquake ground motions, strong winds and sea waves. The newly developed generalized optimal control policy is integrated in the nonlinear stochastic optimal control scheme so as to logically distribute the controllers and design their parameters associated with control gains. For illustrative purposes, the stochastic optimal controls of two base-excited multi-degree-of-freedom structural systems with hysteretic behavior in Clough bilinear model and Bouc-Wen differential model, respectively, are investigated. Numerical results reveal that a linear control with the 1st-order controller suffices even for the hysteretic structural systems when a control criterion in exceedance probability performance function for designing the weighting matrices is employed. This is practically meaningful due to the nonlinear controllers which may be associated with dynamical instabilities being saved. It is also noted that using the generalized optimal control policy, the maximum control effectiveness with the few number of control devices can be achieved, allowing for a desirable structural performance. It is remarked, meanwhile, that the response process and energy-dissipation behavior of the hysteretic structures are controlled to a certain extent.

It is reasonable to assume that reinforced concrete (RC) structures enter the nonlinear range of response during a severe ground motion. Numerical analysis to predict the behaviour therefore must allow for the presence of nonlinear deformations if an accurate estimate of seismic response is aimed. Among the factors contributing to inelastic deformations, the influence of the degradation of the bond slip phenomenon is important. Any rebar slip generates an additional rotation at the end regions of structural members which are not accounted for in a conventional analysis. Although these deformations could affect the seismic response of RC structures considerably, they are often neglected due to the unavailability of suitable models. In this paper, the seismic response of two types of RC structures, designed according to the Iranian concrete code (ABA) and the Iranian seismic code (2800), are evaluated using nonlinear dynamic and static analyses. The investigation is performed using nonlinear dynamic and static pushover analysis considering the deformations due to anchorage slip. The nonlinear analysis results confirm that bond slip significantly influences the seismic behavior of RC structure leading to an increase of lateral deformations by up to 30% depending on the height of building. The outcomes also identify important parameters affecting the extent of this influence.

일반적으로 교량의 하중저항능력인 내하력은 교량의 거동에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있는 심각한 손상, 결함, 재료적인 열화현상이 존재하지 않는다면 이론적인 방법으로 평가한 내하력보다 여유가 있다. 그러나 현재 내하력을 구하기위한 재하실험 및 구조해석 과정에서 이미 오차가 포함되어 있어 응답보정계수의 신뢰성이 떨어지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 센서의 센싱 문제와 구조해석 모델의 적정성에 오차를 해결하기 위하여 센서부에서 기존의 전기저항식 변형률, 변위 센서의 문제점을 도출하여 성능이 우수한 스마트 센서인 광섬유 스마트 센서로의 변화를 추진하고자 한다. 또한, 다양한 구조해석 모델 해석을 통하여 최적의 적정 모델을 선정함으로서 응답보정계수의 정확성을 향상시키고자 하였다.

The performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beam specimens strengthened using a newly proposed Side Near Surface Mounted (S-NSM) technology was investigated experimentally in this work. In addition, analytical and nonlinear finite element (FE) modeling was exploited to forecast the performance of RC members reinforced with S-NSM utilizing steel bars. Five (one control and four strengthened) RC beams were evaluated for flexural performance under static loading conditions employing four-point bending loads. Experimental variables comprise different S-NSM reinforcement ratios. The constitutive models were applied for simulating the non-linear material characteristics of used concrete, major, and strengthening reinforcements. The failure load and mode, yield and ultimate strengths, deflection, strain, cracking behavior as well as ductility of the beams were evaluated and discussed. To cope with the flexural behavior of the tested beams, a 3D non-linear FE model was simulated. In parametric investigations, the influence of S-NSM reinforcement, the efficacy of the S-NSM procedure, and the structural response ductility are examined. The experimental, numerical, and analytical outcomes show good agreement. The results revealed a significant increase in yield and ultimate strengths as well as improved failure modes.

Resonance of railroad bridge can be broken out when natural frequency of the bridge coincides with exciting frequency of moving forces. In order to avoid aforementioned unpleasant response of the structure, exact determination of dynamic structural properties is important to understand dynamic behavior of the structure under moving train loads. In the present paper, a 25 meters long full scale IPC girder and 15m Precom girder models were fabricated as a test specimen and modal testing was carried out to evaluate modal parameters including natural frequencies and modal damping ratios. In the modal testing, a digitally controlled vibration exciter as well as an impact hammer is applied to obtain frequency response functions more exactly and the modal parameters are evaluated varying with structural status.

Various methods have been used to strengthen structures against earthquakes. Isolator systems are among the methods to control the structure's response. Instead of increasing the strength and capacity of the structure, these systems react to earthquakes. In this paper, an isolator system was investigated with the flexible piers of ∨ and ∧ elements, which were perpendicular to each other and connected by a rod hinged at both ends. The behavior of the isolator system was studied. Many structures have non-rigid connections; the effect of this issue was considered in the pendulum column's performance in this paper. Its mathematical equations were derived, solved with MATLAB software, and compared with ABAQUS results. Later on, the isolator system was investigated during different earthquakes. The results show that this mechanism is suitable as an isolator. The period was found to be longer in the flexible pier form. The flexible piers have an influential role in the system's response by reducing the system's stiffness considerably. Among the different damping ratios, those with more than 15% had better results. Finally, the tested model verified the theory.
