Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change, shortages of essential commodities and resources continue to occur globally. To address this problem, trade volume demand suddenly increased, driving up the freight rate of container ships sharply. The size of container vessels progressively increased from 1,500 TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit) in the 1960s to 24,400 TEU in 2021. As the improvement of container loading capacity is closely related to the enlargement of the lashing bridge structure, it is necessary to design a structure effective for good container securing and safe under the various external loads that occur during voyage. Major classification societies have recently issued structural-analysis-based guidelines to evaluate the structural safety of lashing bridges, but their acceptance criteria and evaluation methods are different, causing confusion among engineers during design. In this study, the strength change characteristics are summarized by variations in the main variables (modeling range, opening consideration, mesh size) likely to affect the results. Based on this result, the authors propose a reasonable structural-analysis-based evaluation that is expected to serve as a reference in the next revision of classification standards.

KDC-1 canister for PWR spent fuels which will be used for the Korean Reference Disposal System was developed. The structural analysis of the canister was carried out as a part of the safety analysis. Two conditions, disposal condition and handling condition, were considered for the structural analysis. Three kinds of load cases, normal, abnormal and rock movement, were considered for the disposal condition. The results of the calculation showed that the safety factors from the structural analysis were greater than the design requirements. Two accident scenarios, gripper failure accident and canister drop accident, were analyzed for the handling condition. According to the gripper failure scenario analysis, the handling machine with grippers could be used even in the cases that one or two grippers failed. The maximum von Mises stress from the canister drop accident scenario was 0.762 MPa, which was negligible compared with the yield stress of nodular cast iron. The proposed KDC-1 canister for PWR spent fuels proves to be safe under the repository condition that is based upon the Korean reference disposal system according to the structural analysis for disposal condition and handling condition.

The rotor blade is an important component of a tidal stream turbine and is affected by a large thrust force and load due to the high density of seawater. Therefore, the performance must be secured through the geometrical and structural design of the blade and the blade structural safety to which the composite material is applied. In this study, a 1 MW class large turbine blade was designed using the blade element momentum (BEM) theory. GFRP is a fiber-reinforced plastic used for turbine blade materials. A sandwich structure was applied with CFRP to lay-up the blade cross-section. In addition, to evaluate structural safety according to flow variations, static load analysis within the linear elasticity range was performed using the fluid-structure interactive (FSI) method. Structural safety was evaluated by analyzing tip deflection, strain, and failure index of the blade due to bending moment. As a result, Model-B was able to reduce blade tip deflection and weight. In addition, safety could be secured by indicating that the failure index, inverse reserve factor (IRF), was 1 or less in all load ranges excluding 3.0*Vr of Model-A. In the future, structural safety will be evaluated by applying various failure theories and redesigning the laminated pattern as well as the change of blade material.

최근에 국내에서 입법된 "지하안전관리에 관한 특별법"의 지하안전영향평가 등에서 지하매설물 및 굴착공사 관리의 중요성을 강조하고 있지만, 아직까지는 지하를 개발함에 있어 지반의 안전과 관련된 사항은 미흡한 실정으로 도심지 지반침하( Sinkhole) 현상이 매년 증가하고 있다. 그리고 지반침하(Sinkhole)는 발생이 될 경우 인명피해는 물론 도로나 주변 건물들에 막대한 피해를 줄 수 있는 소지가 충분한 대상으로 사료됨에도 불구하고 이러한 현상을 건설현장에서 심각하게 받아들이는 분위기는 어느 곳에서도 감지되지 않는다. 다만 정부부처나 공공기관에서 국회차원의 지대한 관심에 부응하여 이에 대해 광범위한 연구와 조사에 막대한 예산을 투입하여 다방면에서 진행되고 있는 것으로 파악되고 있다. 또한 이러한 연구결과의 자료를 근거로 하여 지반침하 사고의 주요 원인을 조사해본 결과 상하수도관 손상과 무리한 인접굴착공사 및 대부분의 대형건축공사 현장에 채택되고 있는 부력방지 대책의 일환인 영구배수공법의 무분별한 적용을 들 수 있었다. 이러한 상황에서 그 중 비용과 난이도를 고려현장에서 용이하게 저감할 수 있는 방법인 영구배수공법을 선정하여 영구배수공법의 이론적 고찰과 공학적 타당성(구조체 부상방지 안전성 검토기준)을 연구하여 무분별한 영구배수공법 적용으로 지반침하(Sinkhole)가 발생하는 것을 막아 인명피해와 도로나 구조물의 안전성을 확보하고 나아가 영구배수공법 적용으로 항구적 발생하는 천문학적인 유지관리비의 절감이 목적이다.

This paper evaluated the structural safety of an aging PSC I-girder bridge with rebar corrosion in the deck. The geometry and rebar of the bridge were designed based on an actual PSC I-girder bridge, and the numerical analysis was performed considering the crack of concrete and yielding of steel rebar. According to the evaluation criteria of Korea Infrastructure Safety and Technology Corporation, this study defined two criteria of rebar exposure and corrosion rates to construct a total of 32 corrosion scenarios. Rebar exposure was defined as the exposure of tensile rebars in the bridge deck due to the removal of cover concrete. The results of the analysis showed that the safety and rating factors of the bridge decreased with increasing rebar exposure and corrosion rates. For the rebar corrosion rate more than 50%, the safety grade of the bridge should be carefully evaluated for all the rebar exposure rate. When the rebar corrosion rate exceeds 57%, the bridge was evaluated as E grade regardless of rebar exposure rate. A correlation analysis for a 2% of rebar exposure rate found that the bridge was evaluated as A grade up to 55.8% corrosion rate, C grade up to 56.9%, D grade up to 58.5%, and E grade for corrosion rate greater than 58.5%. This study indicates the necessity of a quantitative evaluation of rebar corrosion for evaluating the structural safety of aging bridges.

In Korea, safety inspections of bridges are conducted periodically in accordance with law. Bridges are classified according to type, length, etdc., and the content and frequency of safety inspections are different. Bridges safety evaluation is performed on relatively large bridges, and safety evaluation of small bridges, which account for the majority of all bridges, is not mandatory. Therefore, in this study, in order to confirm the safety of small-scale bridges, a correlation analysis study was conducted with the common load carrying rate for each safety evaluation indicator. For this purpose, inspection reports of bridges from local goverments were collected, and the values for each bridges for about 50 indicators in the report were converted into data. By performing cleaning on the collected data and analyzing the correlation with the common load carrying rate, the top indicators related to safety for each bridges type were derived.

Recently, regionally characterized greenhouses have been built every place around the country. These greenhouses insist of their higher performance by considering regional merits than the greenhouses without considering regional ones, but it is not clear. The purpose of this study was to make clear the characteristics of the regionally characterized greenhouses through the analyses of actual state and structural safety. The greenhouses were investigated and classified into wide span house, large pipe house, arched lattice house, wooden house, viniculture house, and domed pipe house. The frames of wide span house, arched truss house, viniculture house and domed pipe house were analyzed to be structurally stable under the design wind speeds and snow depths in recurrence intervals of 15 or 30 years, but large pipe house was a little unstable and required some reinforcements, and wooden house turned out to be unstable. In addition, foundations of all characterized greenhouses were stable against pull - out capacity under the design wind speeds in recurrence interval of 30 years.
