Abstract

The horizontal response spectra using the observed ground motions from 15 Fukuoka earthquake series, including main earthquake (2005/03/20; Mw=6.5), were analysed and then were compared to both the seismic design response spectra (Regulatory Guide 1.60), applied to the domestic nuclear power plants, and the Korean Standard Design Response Spectrum for general structures and buildings (1997). 178 horizontal ground motions, without considering soil types, were used for normalization with respect to the peak acceleration value of each ground motion. The results showed that response spectrum have strong dependency on epicentral distance. The results also showed that the horizontal response spectra revealed higher values for frequency bands at two frequency bands (about 8 - 10 and 16- 20 Hz) than Regulatory Guide 1.60. The results were also compared to the Korean Standard Building Design Spectrum for the 3 different soil types and showed that thehorizontal response spectra revealed higher values for almost all period bands than the Korean Standard Response Spectrum (500 yrs; Return Period; Seismic province 1; SE soil conditions). Through the qualitative improvements and quantitative enhancement of the observed ground motions, the diversity of the observed ground motions should be considered more significantly to improve the certainty of response spectrum.

2005년 3월 20일 규모 6.5의 후쿠오카 본진이 발생하였고 이후 발생한 규모 3.7 이상의 15 개 중규모 후쿠오카 지진으로부터 관측된 지반진동 파형을 이용하여 수평 응답스펙트럼을 분석하였다. 결과를 국내 원자력 관련 구조물의 내진설계 기준과 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준과 각각 비교하였다. 수평성분 178개 지반진동을 이용하여 고유진동수별 지반응답을 구하고 최대 지반 가속도 값을 이용하여 정규화 분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과는 응답값에 대한 진앙거리 의존성이 대단히 크다는 것을 보여주었다. 또한 국내 원자력시설물의 내진기준인 Regulatory Guide 1.60과 비교한 결과는 일부 구간 즉 약 8 ~ 10 Hz 구간과 약 16 ~ 20 Hz의 2개의 구간에서 표준편차를 더한 값이 Regulatory Guide 1.60 보다 약간 초과함을 보여 주었다. 또한 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계 응답스펙트럼을 3 개 지반조건에 적용한 결과는 거의 모든 주기 대역에서 분석된 응답스펙트럼이 SE 지반조건의 설계 응답스펙트럼(500년 재래주기, 지진구역 1, SE 지반조건)을 초과하고 있다. 500년 재래주기는 가장 약한 내진 설계기준에 해당하기 때문에 거의 모든 주기 대역에서 본 연구로부터 분석된 응답스펙트럼이 해당 기준을 초과하고 있다. 신뢰성을 보다 증가시키기 위해 향후 한반도 및 한반도 주변 해외 발생지진으로부터 관측된 지진자료를 대폭적으로 보강하여 관측 지진자료의 다양성을 유지하는 것이 필요하다.
