본 고에서는 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 지진시 거동에 관한 유한요소해석 결과를 다루었다. 보강토 옹벽의 지진시 변위거동을 검토한 결과 벽체저부를 지점으로 하는 캔틸레버형태의 변위 거동을 보였으며 따라서 옹벽 상단부에서의 보강재 인장력 증가가 현저하게 나타나 벽체전반에 걸친 분포양상은 균등한 경향을 보였다. 한편, 지진하중으로 인한 증분유발인장력에 관하여 검토한 결과 기존의 보강토 옹벽 내진설계기준과 비교하여 정성.정량적인 측면에서 상당한 차이를 보였으며 내진설계기준이 전반적으로 과소평가 하는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러서, 내진설계측면에서 변위억제 방안에 관한 매개변수 연구결과 임의 조건에 있어서 최대의 보강효과를 나타내는 보강재 임계 강성과 포설길이가 존재하며 최적의 보강효과를 얻기 위해서는 이에 대한 종합적인 검토가 요구되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 고에서는 연구결과를 종합적으로 고찰하여 실무 적용관점에서의 주안점을 언급하였다.

In this study, according to drainage condition (undrained and drained) in ground, the settlement and horizontal displacement of caisson quay wall and apron in Yeongilman port due to excess pore water pressure in ground induced by the magnitude 5.4 earthquake in Pohang on November 15, 2017. In general, seismic response analysis was carried out under undrained drainage condition, but in this study, drain drainage analysis was conducted to estimate displacement during earthquake as well as an additional displacement due to dissipation of excess pore water pressure after earthquake. The result of after earthquake can not be known under undrained drainage condition. Results cleary showed that the behavior of structure and ground was dependent on drainage condition in ground. Especially, based on the drained drainage condition, the additional displacement was clearly detected due to dissipation of excess pore water pressure after earthquake. Which indicates that both results are different to drainage condition in ground, and therefore, drainage condition analysis is necessary to accurately estimate the behavior of ground and structure in seismic response analysis.

In recently, the vibration control of adjacent buildings have been studied and magneto-rheological(MR) fluid dampers have been applied to seismic response control. MR dampers can be controlled with small power supplies and the dynamic range of this damping force is quite large. This MR damper is one of semi-active dampers as a new class of smart dampers. In this study, vibration control effect according to the installation location of the MR damper connected adjacent buildings has been investigated. Adjacent building structures with different natural frequencies were used as example structures. Groundhook control model is applied to determinate control force of MR damper. In this numerical analysis, it has been shown that displacement responses can be effectively controlled as adjacent buildings are connected at roof floors by MR damper. And acceleration responses can be effectively reduced when two buildings are connected at the mid-stories of adjacent buildings by MR damper. Therefore, the installation floor of the MR damper should be selected with seismic response control target.

This paper describes a new objective methodology of seismic building damage assessment which is called Advanced Component Method(ACM). ACM is a major attempt to replace the conventional loss estimation procedure, which is based on subjective measures and the opinions of experts, with one that objectively measures both earthquake intensity and the response ol buildings. First, response of typical buildings is obtained analytically by nonlinear seismic static analysis, push-over analyses. The spectral displacement Is used as a measure of earthquake intensity in order to use Capacity Spectrum Method and the damage functions for each building component, both structural and non-structural, are developed as a function of component deformation. Examples of components Include columns, beams, floors, partitions, glazing, etc. A repair/replacement cost model is developed that maps the physical damage to monetary damage for each component. Finally, building response, component damage functions, and cost model were combined probabilistically, using Wonte Carlo simulation techniques, to develop the final damage functions for each building type. Uncertainties in building response resulting from variability in material properties and load assumptions were incorporated in the Latin Hypercube sampling technique. The paper also presents and compares ACM and conventional building loss estimation based on historical damage data and reported loss data.

Underground utility tunnel, the most representative cut and cover structure, is subjected to seismic force by displacement of the surrounding soil. In 2020, Korea Infrastructure Safety Corporation has published "Seismic Performance Evaluation Guideline for Existing Utility Tunnel." This paper introduces two seismic evaluation methods, RDM (Response Displacement Method) and RHA (Response History Analysis) adopted in the guide and compares the methods for an example of an existing utility tunnel. The test tunnel had been constructed in 1988 and seismic design was not considered. RDM is performed by single and double cosine methods based on the velocity response spectrum at the base rock. RHA is performed by finite difference analysis that is able to consider nonlinear behavior of soil and structure together in two-dimensional plane strain condition. The utility tunnel shows elastic behavior for RDM, but shows plastic hinge for RHA under the collapse prevention level earthquake.

에너지 소산장치가 설치된 건무의 비선형 시간이력해석은 복잡하고 많은 시간이 소모된다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 정적해석법인 능력 스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 주어긴 거동 한계를 만족할 수 있는 감쇠기의 양을 산정하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 먼저 능력스펙트럼법을 이용하여 건물의 비선형 정적응답을 구하고 건물의 응답과 목표변위의 차이를 이용하여 유효감쇠비를 구하고 이러한 유효 감쇠비를 이용하여 필용한 점성 감쇠기의 양을 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 단자 유도계에서 건물의 주기, 요구되는 탄성강도에 대한 항복강도의 비, 항복 후 강성비 등을 변수로 하여 연구를 수행하였다. 제안된 방법에 따라 설계된 점성 감쇠기를 설치한 예제 구조물의 시간이력 해석에 의한 최대 응답은 설계의 초기단계에서 사용한 목표변위와 잘 일치하였다.

The inelastic response characteristics of the standard school buildings depending on selection of hysteresis models are reviewed. Three earthquake records of El-centre, Santa-Monica, Taft and three artificial earthquake records in accordance with Korea standard are used and the inelastic response characteristics such as story shear force, story drift ratio, story displacement, hinge distribution state are reviewed with various hysteresis models. As results, story shear force is increased by maximum 60% according to hysteresis model. And Story drift ratio is increased by maximum 42% according to hysteresis model. And The result with clough model shows the maximum hinge distribution state.

An experimental study was performed to evaluate seismic reduction performance and the applicability of 2-dimensional floor isolation system to the main control room of a nuclear power plant. A lead-rubber bearing (LRB) and a friction pendulum system (FPS) were designed and fabricated for a 2-dimensional floor isolation system. A partial experimental model of a main control room with the LRB and FPS was tested using a shaking table. The experimental model consisted of a control panel, a 2.5m${\times}$2.5m access floor, and four LRB and FPS. The artificial time histories based on the horizontal floor response spectrums (OBE, SSE) of the main control room were used as earthquake input signals. Compared to the non-isolated system, the seismic response of experimental models using a 2-dimensional floor isolation system showed considerable seismic reduction performance against an earthquake.

Fuzzy supervisory control method is studied for the active control of earthquake excited structures. The proposed algorithm supervises and tunes previously designed control gains by evaluating the state of a structure through the fuzzy inference mechanism, which uses the information of relative displacements and velocities. Example designs and numerical simulations of earthquake exited three degrees of freedom structures are performed to prove the validity of the proposed control algorithm. Comparative results with conventional LQR method show that the proposed method is effective for the vibration suppression of earthquake excited structures.
