This study proposes a technology to ensure the seismic stability of a 1,000 kW diesel engine-type emergency generator by applying a seismic isolated bed system. The technology allows the static analysis by making the first natural frequency of the installed entire emergency generator larger than the earthquake cutoff frequency of 33 Hz. First a three dimensional model for the generator was made with simplification for mode analysis. A new bed system with springs, shock absorbers, stoppers was then devised. Next, The mode analysis for the finite element model equipped by the bed system was performed. the 1^st natural frequency above 33 Hz, the seismic safety cutoff frequency, was calculated to be 152.92 Hz. Finally, based on the seismic stability theory, the von-Mises equivalent stresses derived by structural analysis under the Upset and Faulted conditions were 0.01603 Mpa, and 32.06 Mpa, respectively. so seismic stability was confirmed.

The aim of this paper is a seismic performance evaluation of metallic damper devices which are efficient in workability and installation process. For this V shape and S shape dampers is considered. The strut figures of dampers are V shape and S shape and, the research parameters are strut height and angle of the dampers. ABAQUS program is used for nonlinear finite element analysis. The analysis is performed with the hysteretic curve that has maximum displacement with 50mm and has increased progressive. As a results of evaluating the yield strength, maximum strength and energy dissipation capacity of each device, V and S shape have a good strength capacity and the devices with strut angle $60^{\circ}$ and strut height 140 and 200mm are evaluated stable in seismic behaviors. The response of S shape is more efficient than that of V shape. In the yield strength estimation process, proposed formula can not estimate the yield strength of V and S shape dampers. Even though, the formula can not consider the variation of strut heights and strut angles. Finally the S shape damper is recommended in seismic performance than V shape damper.

The brace is often used to resist lateral force such as that exerted by an earthquake. Because of buckling at bifurcation load, the brace shows unstable hysteretic characteristics in the plastic zone. Therefore, in this study, the brace with damper that consists of slit plates were suggested on the purpose of preventing buckling and increasing plastic deformation capacity. The experimental results regarding the brace member were analyzed and the feasibility was also examined.

Structures are designed against earthquakes and reinforced concrete shear walls or steel bracings are usually used as aseismic resistant element. However their hysteretic characteristics in plastic region ductility and capacity of energy absorption are not always good. Besides their stiffness is so rigid that structure designed by static analysis is occasionally disadvantageous. when dynamically analized. Generally a steel plate subjected to shear force has a good deformation capacity Also it has been considered to retain comparative shear strength and stiffness Steel shear wall can be used as lateral load resistant element for seismic design. However there was little knowledge concerning shear force-deformation characteristics of steel plates up to their collapse state In this study a series of shear loading tests of steel plate collapse state. In this study a series of shear loading tests of steel plate surrounded by vertical and horizontal ribs were conducted with the parameters of D/H ratios rib type and the loading patterns. The test result is discussed and analyzed to obtain several restoring characteristics. that is shear force-deformation stiffness and yield strength etc.

Recently, Seismic performance of the building built in the past is required to review, because the code for seismic design have been reinforced. In 2009, if the revised latest criteria of seismic design is applied, the majority the steel structure of the low-rise concentrically braced system is short of the seismic performance. Also, when the steel braces are subject to compressive load, which causes unstable behavior of the structure. In order to verify the compressive behavior of the reinforced braces, structural performance test was conducted with variables of slenderness ratio and the amount of reinforcement. Therefore, this study suggests restraining the bending buckling of slender H-shaped braces to resist compressive force. In order to verify the compressive behavior of the reinforced braces, structural performance test was conducted with variables of slenderness ratio and the amount of reinforcement.

The novel cut-and-cover tunnel construction method using rib-reinforced pre-cast arch segments has been recently developed and applied for practice to secure a structural stability of high covering and wide width section tunnels. Cut-and-cover tunnels are usually damaged by the seismic behavior of backfill grounds in case of a low covering condition. Seismic analyses are performed in this study to characterize the dynamic behavior of rib-reinforced pre-cast arch cut-and-cover tunnels. Seismic analyzes for 2 lane cast-in-place and rib-reinforced pre-cast arch cut-and-cover tunnels are carried out by using the commercial FDM program (FLAC2D) considering various field conditions such as the covering height embankment slope and excavation slope. It can be concluded that the amplification of seismic wave is reduced due to an increase in the structural stiffness induced by rib-reinforcement. The results show that the rib-reinforced pre-cast arch cut-and-cover tunnels are more effective against the seismic loading, compared to the cast-in-place cut-and-cover tunnels.

Contrary to an intact rock, the jointed rock mass shows strain-dependent deformation characteristics (elastic modulus and damping ratio). The maximum elastic modulus of a rock mass can be obtained from an elastic wave-based exploration in a small strain level and applied to seismic analyses. However, the assessment and application of the non-linear characteristics of rock masses in a small to medium strain level ($10^{-4}{\sim}0.5%$) have not been carried out yet. A non-linear dynamic analysis module is newly developed for FLAC3D to simulate strain-dependent shear modulus degradation and damping ratio amplification characteristics. The developed module is verified by analyzing the change of the Ricker wave propagation. Strain-dependent non-linear characteristics are obtained from disks of cored samples using a rock mass dynamic testing apparatus which can evaluate wave propagation characteristics in a jointed rock column. Using the experimental results and the developed non-linear dynamic module, seismic analyses are performed for the intersection of a shaft and an inclined tunnel. The numerical results show that vertical and horizontal displacements of non-linear analyses are larger than those of linear analyses. Also, non-linear analyses induce bigger bending compressive stresses acting on the lining. The bending compressive stress concentrates at the intersection part. The fundamental understanding of a strain-dependent jointed rock mass behavior is achieved in this study and the analytical procedure suggested can be effectively applied to field designs and analyses.

The article describes the determination of the dynamic stability for an observation antenna, considering the rotational speed by the payload driving motor. A finite element model of the observation antenna was made using the solid and beam elements. The connecting parts between the solid and the beam was adequately coupled. The boundary conditions were made by restriction of the degree of freedoms in the supporting points. With the comparison between the modal analysis results and the rotating speed of the payload driving motor, no resonance for the structure of antenna was identified and first natural frequency was determined under 33 Hz (Seismic Cut-Off Frequency). Therefore, the dynamic stability of the antenna was confirmed by the comparism between the seismic safety criterion and the stress results of the dynamic analysis applied the loading conditions and required response spectrum (RRS).
