The aim of this study is to investigate the inelastic buckling behavior of the beams under moment gradient using a line-type finite element method. The method is incorporated the non-uniform yielding of the cross-section caused by the presence of residual stress and accepted model of residual stress so called 'simplified' and 'polynomial' pattern is adopted in this study. The inelastic lateral-torsional buckling results obtained in this study is compared with the buckling results obtained from the design method based on the allowable stress method given in Korean Steel Designers Manual (KSDM 1995). This study have found that the design method in KSDM (1995) is conservative without and with intermediate bracing applied at the mid span of the beam, and there is some scope for improving the provisions of KSDM (1995)

Flat plate structures under lateral load are susceptible to punching shear failure of the slab-column connection. To prevent such brittle failure, strength and ductility of the connection should be ensured. However, due to complexity in the behavior and difficulty in simulating the actual load and boundary conditions of the flat plate system, it is not easy to obtain reliable data regarding to the strength and ductility from the previous experimental studies. In the present study, a numerical study was performed for interior connections of continuous flat plate. For the purpose, a computer program for nonlinear FE analyses was developed, and the validity was verified by comparisons with the existing experimental results. Through the parametric studies, the variations of bending moment, shear, and torsional moment around the connection were investigated. Based on the findings of the numerical studies, the aspects which need to be improved in current design methods were discussed. The results of the present study will be used for developing a design method for the flat plate-column connection in the companion paper.

Flat plate structures under lateral load are susceptible to the brittle shear failure of plate-column connection. To prevent such brittle failure, strength and ductility of the connection should be ensured. However, according to previous studies, current design methods do not accurately estimate the strength of plate-column connection. In the present study, parametric study using nonlinear finite element analysis was performed for interior connections. Based on the numerical results, a design method for the connection was developed. At the critical sections around the connection coexist flexural moment and shear developed by lateral and gravity loads, and maximum allowable eccentric shear stresses were proposed based on the interactions between the flexural moment and shear, The proposed method can precisely predict the strength of the connection, compared with the current design provisions. The predictability of the proposed method was verified by the comparisons with existing experiments and nonlinear numerical analyses.

Numerical studies were carried out to develop the moment magnifier method for long-term behavior of flat plates, subjected to combined in-plane compressive and transverse loads. Nonlinear finite element analyses were performed for the numerical studies. Through the numerical studies, the long term behavior of the flat plate subjected to uniform or nonuniform floor load was investigated, and creep effects on the degradation of strength and stiffness of the slabs were examined. As a result, the creep factor was implemented to describe the creep effect on the flat plate. The moment magnifier method using the creep factor was developed for long-term behavior of flat plates. Also, the design examples were shown for the verification of the proposed design method.

Flat Plate structures subjected to lateral load are susceptible to the brittle failure, therefore deformability of plate-column connections should be ensured to resist against earthquake. However, according to previous study, existing experiments overestimate the deformability of connections and current design provision do not accurately explains them. In the present study, parametric study using nonlinear finite element analysis was performed. Based on the numerical results, seismic design method considering the deformability of connections was developed.

Current design provisions and guide for performance-based design do not accurately evaluate seismic performance of flat plate system. In the previous companion studies, parametric studies using nonlinear finite element analyses were performed to investigate behavior of the flat plate, and based on the numerical results, design methods that can predict the bending moment-carrying capacity and the corresponding deformability of the flat plate was developed. In the present study, a generalized moment-rotation relation of the flat plate was developed based on the previous studies and the numerical analyses. The proposed method was verified by the comparisons with existing experiments. In addition, the effective stiffness of the flat plate corresponding to 0.2 percent of lateral drift that is generally regarded as the serviceability limit was proposed, so as to evaluate conveniently deflection of the structure subject to wind load.

오염원과 취수원이 인접한 위치에 존재하는 국내 하천 같은 경우 취수 시설의 안전한 관리를 위하여 오염물의 2차원 혼합 거동에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 하천에서의 오염물 혼합 거동을 분석하기 위하여 일반적으로 농도와 분산 정보 수집을 위한 추적자 실험을 수행해왔다. 기존에 수행된 추적자 실험들은 형광염료, 방사선 물질, 고형 물질 등과 같은 추적자를 인위적으로 주입하여 사용하였다. 그러나 수온, 전기전도도(electrical conductivity), 이온화 물질 등과 같은 자연 추적자(natural tracers)를 이용하는 추적자 실험은 인공추적자 물질을 대체할 수 있는 방안으로서, 기존 추적자 실험과 비교하여 경제적, 환경적인 효과와 하폭이 넓은 중규모 이상의 하천에서도 수행할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 진천천과 금호강이 합류하는 낙동강 중류 구간에서 횡혼합 연구를 위하여 전기 전도도 추적 실험을 수행하였다. 강정고령보 직하류에서 낙동강 좌안쪽에서 합류하는 금호강과 진천천의 경우 인근 공업단지와 하폐수처리장으로부터 많은 비점오염원과 점오염원이 유입된다. 두곳의 지류에서 모두 높게 측정되었던 전기전도도를 자연 추적자로 선택하였다. 지류의 경우 전기전도도를 측정할 수 있는 센서를 측정 지점에 설치하여 측정하였으며, 본류인 낙동강의 경우 정해진 측선을 따라 센서가 고정된 보트를 이동하며 데이터를 취득하였다. 지류인 금호강과 진천천의 경우, 합류 전 전기전도도의 농도의 횡분포는 균일한 분포를 나타냈으며 농도의 평균값은 합류 전 낙동강 본류의 기저농도 보다 더 높은 값을 나타내었다. 지류 합류 이후의 낙동강 본류에서는 지류로부터 유입된 오염물질로 인하여 횡방향으로 불균등한 전기전도도 농도 분포를 나타내었으며 오염물질이 점점 하류 쪽으로 이동하면서, 횡방향 농도경사의 크기가 줄어들었다. 유관모멘트법을 농도곡선에 적용하여 횡방향 분산계수를 산정하였다. 산정된 횡분산계수의 값은 Rutherford (1994)가 제안한 분산계수의 범위에 포함되는 것으로 나타났다.

자연하천에서 수자원의 원활하고 안전한 관리에 있어서 오염물의 혼합 거동에 대한 이해는 매우 중요하다. 대부분의 자연하천의 경우 만곡부 및 합류부와 같은 복잡한 지형을 갖고 있으며 이러한 경우 하천의 흐름이 복잡한 형태를 갖게 된다. 특히 수생태계에 많은 영향을 미치는 하폐수 처리장 처리수는 대부분 1차적으로 지류로 방류되어 이후 본류로 지속적으로 유입되게 된다. 이러한 오염물질이 지류로부터 본류로 혼합되는 합류부 구간의 경우 일반적인 1차원 혼합이 아닌 횡방향을 포함하는 2차원적인 혼합 거동에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 금호강과 진천천이 좌안으로부터 오염물질이 지속적으로 유입되는 낙동강 중류구간 합류부에서의 혼합 구간의 연구를 위하여 횡분산계수 산정을 위하여 전기전도도(electrical conductivity: EC)를 이용한 농도 추적 실험을 수행하였다. 낙동강 본류에서 정해진 측선을 따라 센서가 설치된 보트를 이용하여 실시간으로 농도, 수리량 데이터를 GPS 위치 데이터와 함께 취득하였다. 또한 실험으로부터 취득한 자료를 바탕으로 2차원 이송-확산 혼합 거동 모델인 CTM-2D 수치모형을 이용하여 모의하였다. 실험 수행 결과, 지류인 금호강과 진천천의 EC 농도가 합류 전 낙동강 본류의 EC 기저농도 보다 더 높은 값을 나타내었다. 지류의 유입으로 인하여 본류 좌안 쪽에서 전기전도도의 값의 상승을 확인할 수 있었으며 하류로 이동할수록 불균등했던 전기전도도의 분포가 횡방향 혼합을 통하여 점점 균등한 분포로 전환되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 2차원 혼합 거동 분석에 필요한 횡 분산계수 산정을 위해 모멘트법, 해석해를 이용한 추적법, 수치모형을 통한 역산법을 통해 산정하여 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과 모멘트법의 경우 다른 방법들에 비하여 전반적으로 과소 산정하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Although pile driver overturning accidents at construction site are not frequent, most leads to serious disasters. The main cause of accidents is uneven settlement of the ground. To prevent this, related guidelines such as KOSHA-C-101-2014, KOSH-A-GUIDE-71-2012, Occupational Safety and Health Standards, and NCS stipulate the installation of steel plates over ground. However, since the required steel plate thickness considering the self-weight of pile drivers and the underlying ground condition is not quantitatively presented, it is randomly applied in the field. In this study, the required minimum steel plate thickness was analyzed based on a numerical analysis (Plaxis 2D). Settlements and soil failure were calculated according to the different type of soils (sand, clay), load distribution and steel plate thickness (10mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm). Under all conditions, 10mm steel plate causes soil collapse. From thickness 20mm, the ground uneven subsidence is within 2° of the allowable leader angle.

For the design of infrastructures controlling the flood events at ungauged basins, this study tries to find the regional flood frequencies using peak flow data generated by the spatial extension of flood records. The Chungju Dam watershed is selected to validate the possibility of regional flood frequency analysis using the spatially extended flood data. Firstly, based on the index flood method, the flood event data from the spatial extension method is evaluated for 22 mid/smaller sub-basins at the Chungju Dam watershed. The homogeneity of the Chungju dam watershed was assessed in terms of the different size of watershed conditions such as accumulated and individual sub-basins. Based on the result of homogeneity analysis, this watershed is heterogeneous with respect to individual sub-basins because of the heterogeneity of rainfall distribution. To decide the regional probability distribution, goodness-of fit measure and weighted moving averages method from flood frequency analysis were adopted. Finally, GEV distribution was selected as a representative distribution and regional quantile were estimated. This research is one step further method to estimate regional flood frequency for ungauged basins.
