현재 방폭설계 관련 설계지침은 기둥제거시나리오를 이용한 대체하중경로법을 주로 적용하고 있지만, 실제로 폭발이 발생하였을 때 기둥의 완전한 파괴가 일어나지 않을 경우 이 방식을 적용하는 것은 적합하지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비선형 동적 해석 프로그램인 AUTODYN을 이용해 편심하중을 받는 철근 콘크리트 기둥의 잔존 폭발 저항 성능을 평가하는 방식을 제안하였다. 해석결과를 비교해보면 TNT양과 축하중이 클수록 철근콘크리트 기둥의 잔존 폭발 저항 성능이 감소되었다. 이것은 폭발이 발생하기전의 기둥의 편심하중에 의한 응력상태에 따라 폭발 저항 성능이 달라짐을 알 수 있다.

최근 폭발 등 극한하중에 대한 관심의 증대와 함께 방폭 및 연쇄붕괴방지를 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 폭발하중하의 강구조물의 손상도와 저항성능을 수치적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 구조물의 폭발피해경감을 위해 가장 중요한 구조부재인 기둥을 대상으로 폭발물과 구조물과의 이격거리를 달리하여 폭발하중을 적용하였다. 유한요소해석을 수행한 결과를 토대로 기둥의 손상도와 잔여압축강도를 비교하고 관계를 도출하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 폭발에 의해 기둥이 손상된 경우 구조물 전체의 연쇄붕괴저항성능에의 손상된 기둥의 기여도를 평가하는 것이다.

Columns are the key elements supporting load in structure. Column failure causes the structure to collapse. It is important to evaluate residual strength for damaged columns under blast load for preventing progressive collapse. In this paper, columns were investigated to compare the blast resistance on the change of the number of steel bars within the range of reinforcement ratio. And this study was carried out 4 different analytical models to evaluate effects of aspect ratio. The results indicate that the vertical strain was unaffected by the number of steel bars and aspect ratio. As the number of steel bars facing blast load increase, the blast resisting capacity of the columns was improved in the lateral strain. Also, the analysis results showed that a large moment of inertia of area, as compared to a small one would be superior in residual strength as well as force of restitution.

본 논문에서는 비선형 동적 해석 프로그램인 AUTODYN을 이용해 기둥의 단면 형상의 변화에 따른 폭발 하중의 영향을 분석하였다. 먼저 폭발하중 산정의 타당성을 확인하기 위해 AUTODYN을 이용한 예제해석을 수행하였으며, 폭발하중에 의한 영향을 가장 효율적으로 확인할 수 있는 인자인 압력을 비교하였다. 이를 토대로 기둥 형상에 따른 폭발 저항 성능을 평가하기 위해 같은 단면적과 높이를 갖는 정사각형과 원형 기둥을 모델링 한 후 TNT의 양에 따른 폭발전후의 부피를 비교하였다. 해석결과를 비교해보면 정사각형기둥이 원형기둥보다 폭발에 대한 손상정도는 더 크지만 기둥이 절단되지 않도록 하는 저항성능이 더 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 비록 철근의 영향을 고려하지 않았지만, 이와 같은 결과를 통해 TNT의 양에 따른 기본적인 폭발거동과 대테러 설계를 위한 기둥 단면 선택시 기초적인 자료로 활용가능 할 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, the blast resisting performance of partially reinforced CFT columns was compared with the normal CFT columns to evaluate the effect of reinforcing with steel plates. Autodyn which is a specialized hydro-code for analysis of explosion and impact was used to simulate the structural behavior of the CFT columns under the blast loadings. The interaction between concrete and surrounding steel plates was modeled with friction and join option to represent the realistic damage of columns. According to the analysis, the partially reinforced CFT column showed enhanced blast resisting performance than the normal CFT columns. Also the improvement of blast resisting performance was depended on the height of reinforcing steel plates.

The alternative load path method based on a column removal scenario has been commonly used to protect building structures from being progressively collapsed due to probable blast loading. However, this method yields highly conservative result when the columns still have substantial load resisting capacity after blast. In this study, the behavior of RC columns with rectangular and circular sections under the blast loading was investigated and the remaining capacity of the partially damaged columns was compared. AUTODYN which is a hydrocode for the analysis of the structure on the impact and blast loading was used for this study. The blast loading was verified with the experiment results. The analysis results showed that the circular columns are preferable to the rectangular ones in respect of the blast resistance performance.

Recently, awareness of the public about the explosion damage has increased due to the increased risk of terrorism. The criteria for blast-resistance design is not sufficient in Korea, it is necessary to develop blast-resistance design for the stability and safety of building by static analysis of current blast-resistance design. In addition, as the increase of earthquake occurrence necessitates the seismic design, it is studied to judge the blast-resistance performance of members applying seismic design without blast-resistance design. Currently, the general analysis of blast load is to refer to UFC 3-340-02 manual. Blast-resistance performance was studied by applying characteristics of blast load through UFC 3-340-02 manual, beam converted into equivalent SDOF System. It is proved that blast-resistance performance is improved when seismic detail is applied considering the maximum deflection of normal, intermediate, and special moment frames.

As the scale of explosions diversifies along with the expansion of gas handling and storage facilities, studies on explosion-proof facilities in preparation for accidents is being actively conducted. The gastight door blocks the expansion pressure caused by blast waves or internal fires, and at the same time protects the personnel and equipment inside. For gastight doors, the regulations related to explosion-proof design are not clearly presented, and studies on the explosion pressure resistance performance evaluation of the facility are insufficient. In this study, the gastight door was modeled in a 3D shape with reference to the regulation ASTM regarding the gastight door standard. Afterwards, evaluation for blast-resistant performance of gastight door using Numerical simulation was evaluated by using ANSYS Explicit Dynamics to compare the deformation.

In recent years, frequent terror or military attack by explosion, impact, fire accidents have occurred. Particularly, World Trade Center collapse and US Department of Defense Pentagon attack on Sept. 11 of 2001. Also, nuclear power plant incident on Mar. 11 of 2011. These attacks and incidents were raised public concerns and anxiety of potential terrorist attacks on major infrastructures and structures. Therefore, the extreme loading researches were performed of prestressed concrete (PSC) member, which widely used for nuclear containment vessel and gas tank. In this paper, to evaluate the blast resistance capacity and its protective performance of bi-directional unbonded prestressed concrete member, blast tests were carried out on $1,400{\times}1,000{\times}300mm$ for reinforced concrete (RC), prestressed concrete without rebar (PSC), prestressed concrete with rebar (PSRC) specimens. The applied blast load was generated by the detonation of 55 lbs ANFO explosive charge at 1.0 m standoff distance. The data acquisitions not only included blast waves of incident pressure, reflected pressure, and impulse, but also included displacement, acceleration, and strains at steel, concrete, PS tendon. The results can be used as basic research references for related research areas, which include protective design and blast simulation under blast loading.

When a extreme loading such as blast is applied to prestressed concrete (PSC) structures and infrastructures for an instantaneous time, serious property damages and human casualties occur. However, a existing design procedure for PSC structures such as prestressed containment vessel (PCCV) and gas storage tank do not consider a protective design for extreme internal blast scenario. Particularly, an internal blast is much more dangerous than that of external blast. Therefore, verification of the internal blast loading is required. In this paper, the internal blast resistance capacity of PSC member is evaluated by performing internal blast tests on RC and bi-directional PSC scaled down specimens. The applied internal blast loads were 22.68, 27.22, and 31.75 kg (50, 60, and 70 lbs) ANFO explosive charge at 1,000 mm standoff distance. The data acquisitions include blast pressure, deflection, strain, crack patterns, and prestressing force. The test results showed that it is possible to predict the damage area to the structure when internal blast loading occurs in PCCV structures.
