In general, the response spectrum analysis(RSA) method is wifely used for seismic analysis of building structures, and the time history analysis(THA) is applied for computation of structural vibration caused by equipments, machines and moving loads, etc. However, compared with the RSA method, the THA method is very complex, difficult and time consuming. In this study, the maximum responses for the vertical vibration are calculated conveniently by the RSA method. At first, the process for the RSA in excitation is proposed, and the maximum modal responses are combined by CQC and SRSS methods. Also, the responses obtained by the two modal combination methods are compared to the responses by the THA. And the correlation coefficients for human activities is proposed, and the RSA responses obtained by used to the correlation coefficients are calculated. Finally, results of the proposed method are compared with those of the time history analysis and correlation coefficients should be considered for the RSA of floor structure subjected to group dynamic loads.

풍하중이 작용하는 교량의 응답을 구하기 위하여 RFA(Rational Function Approximation)와 같은 시간 영역해석법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 교량 단면의 공기역학적 특성을 정의하는 플러터 계수는 주파수 영역에서 정의되기 때문에, 시간 영역해석을 위하여 inverse Fourier transform을 통해 얻어진 impulse response function을 이용한 중첩 적분법이 제안되었다. 시간 영역해석을 위해서는 플러터 계수에 상관성이 존재해야 함을 밝히고, 최적화 방법을 이용하여 시간 영역 해석을 위한 플러터 계수 산정법을 제안하고자 한다. B/D=20의 구형 단면에 적용하여 제안한 방법의 타당성을 검증하고자 한다.

The GF(Gust Factor) method is usually used as a method to evaluate equivalent static wind loads for general structures. The GF method is performed on the assumption that the shape of the equivalent static wind load profile is typically similar to that of mean wind loads. The shape of fluctuating wind loads could be quite different with that of the mean wind loads in case of large-span structures. So, the effect of higher modes as well as first mode must be considered to evaluate the wind loads. In this study, the ACS (Advanced Conditional Sampling) method is suggested to evaluate of equivalent static wind loads after investigating about GF and LRC method. The An method ran derive effective static wind loads by combining wind pressures and inertia forces of a structure chosen at a maximum load effect. The maximum load effect is assessed with the time history analysis using pressure data measured in wind tunnel tests. Equivalent static wind loads evaluated using ACS, GF, and LRC methods are compared to verify the effectiveness of ACS method.

In this study, we developed a methodology to determine the reference parameter for an aircraft impact induced risk assessment of nuclear power plant (NPP) using finite element impact analysis of containment building. The target structure used to develop the method of reference parameter selection is one of the typical Korean PWR type containment buildings. We composed a three-dimensional finite element model of the containment building. The concrete damaged plasticity model was used for the concrete material model. The steels in the tendon, rebar, and liner were modeled using the piecewise-linear stress-strain curves. To evaluate the correlations between structural response and each candidate parameter, we developed Riera's aircraft impact force-time history function with respect to the variation of the loading parameters, i.e., impact velocity and mass of the remaining fuel. For each force-time history, the type of aircraft is assumed to be a Boeing 767 model. The variation ranges of the impact velocity and remaining fuel percentage are 50 to 200m/s, and 30 to 90%, respectively. Four parameters, i.e., kinetic energy, total impulse, maximum impulse, and maximum force are proposed for candidates of the reference parameter. The wellness of the correlation between the reference parameter and structural responses was formulated using the coefficient of determination ($R^2$). From the results, we found that the maximum force showed the highest $R^2$ value in most responses in the materials. The simplicity and intuitiveness of the maximum force parameter are also remarkable compared to the other candidate parameters. Therefore, it can be concluded that the maximum force is the most proper candidate for the reference parameter to assess the aircraft impact induced risk of NPPs.

본 논문에서는 유체-구조 상호작용해석의 일종의 3차원 접수구조물의 진동해석을 효과적으로 수행하기 위한 해석방법을 제시하기 위하여 동적재해석기법을 검토하였다. 접수구조물의 유한구조 상호작용해석 결과는 구조진동의 관심 주파수역에서는 3차원 연성 부가수질량으로 표현되는 관성력으로 나타난다. 따라서 구조질량행렬에 부가수질량 행렬이 더해져서 전체 관성력으로 표현된다. 이 부가수질량을 추가질량으로 보고 재해석기법을 응용하는 방법을 수치실험을 통해 검증하였다. 이 때 재해석기법이 갖추어야 할 조건은 원구조의 질량과 거의 같은 정도의 질량이 추가되고 또한 완전 연성질량이 추가된 경우에도 정확한 해를 주어야 한다는 것이다. 이를 검증하기 위해 직접재해석기법과 섭동법을 이용한 재해석기법으로 4질량 스프링지지구조에 대한 해석을 수행한 결과 직접재해석기법의 응용이 적합함을 쉽게 입증할 수 있었다. 접수구조물의 예로는 3차원 잠수주상체에 대해 접수진동해석을 수행하였으며 그 결과 선체진동해석에 전통적으로 이용되고 있는 2차원 부가수질량과 3차원 수정계수를 사용한 기준차수법에서는 수지모드와 수평-비틔 연성모드와 같이 서로 독립적인 모드에 대해서는 따로 진동해석을 수행해 주어야 하는 단점이 발견되었다. 이 단점을 보완한 각 모드의 3차원 수정계수행렬을 이용한 재해석기법을 도입하여 모드에 상관없이 동시에 해를 구할 수 있었다. 그러나, 이 방법은 3차원 수정계수가 구해져 있는 경우에 한해서만 적용가능하며 실제 선체진동의 경우에는 10Hz 미만의 저차 주선체 진동에 한해서만 적용가능한 방법이다. 고차의 진도옴드에는 3차원 수정계수를 구할 수 없기 때문에 유체-구조 상호작용 해석결과로부터 얻은 3차원 연성 부가수질량을 이용하게 되며 이 때 이 행렬이 접수구조 표면의 전 자유도와 연성되어 있기 때문에 방대한 방정식을 푸어야 하지만 직접재해석기법을 적용함으로써 정확한 해를 구할 수 있었다. 또한 3차원 부가수질량을 이용한 직접재해석기법은 종래의 2차원 부가수질량과 3차원 수정계수를 이용한 방법에 비해 해석시간 면에서도 전혀 불리한 점이 없는 경제적 방법임이 밝혀졌다. 앞으로 Slamming 혹은 수중폭파 등의 충격하중에 의한 천이 구조응답 해석을 위한 효과적인 방법에 대해서도 연구결과를 발표할 계획이다.

Structural health monitoring for ships and offshore structures is important in various aspects. Ships and offshore structures are continuously exposed to various environmental conditions, such as waves, wind, and currents. In the event of an accident, immense economic losses, environmental pollution, and safety problems can occur, so it is necessary to detect structural damage or defects early. In this study, structural response data of multi-linked floating offshore structures under various wave load conditions was calculated by performing fluid-structure coupled analysis. Furthermore, the order reduction method with distortion base mode was applied to the structures for predicting the structural response by using the results of numerical analysis. The distortion base mode order reduction method can predict the structural response of a desired area with high accuracy, but prediction performance is affected by sensor arrangement. Optimization based on a genetic algorithm was performed to search for optimal sensor arrangement and improve the prediction performance of the distortion base mode-based reduced-order model. Consequently, a sensor arrangement that predicted the structural response with an error of about 84.0% less than the initial sensor arrangement was derived based on the root mean squared error, which is a prediction performance evaluation index. The computational cost was reduced by about 8 times compared to evaluating the prediction performance of reduced-order models for a total of 43,758 sensor arrangement combinations. and the expected performance was overturned to approximately 84.0% based on sensor placement, including the largest square root error.
