In order to modeling seismic isolation system such as lead-rubber bearing (LRB), bilinear model is widely used by many researchers. In general, an actual force-displacement relationship for LRB has a smooth hysteretic shape. So, Bouc-Wen model with smooth hysteretic shape represents more accurately actual hysteretic shape than bilinear model. In this study, seismic responses for seismically isolated nuclear power plant (NPP) with LRB modelled by Bouc-Wen and bilinear models are compared with those of NPP without seismic isolation system. To evaluate effect of earthquake characteristics for seismic responses of NPP isolated by LRB, 5 different site class earthquakes distinguished by Geomatrix 3rd Letter Site Classification and artificially generated earthquakes corresponding to standard design spectrum by Reg. Guide 1.60 are used as input earthquakes. From the seismic response results of seismically isolated NPP, it can be observed that maximum displacements of seismic isolation modelled by Bouc-Wen model are larger than those by bilinear model. Seismic responses of NPP with LRB is significantly reduced than those without LRB. This reduction effect for seismic responses of NPP subjected to Site A (rock) earthquakes is larger than that to Site E (soft soil) earthquakes.

In this study, based on shaking table test results on a seismically isolated bridge model, an inelastic numerical model is refined by using Bouc-Wen model representing the hysteretic behavior of isolators. Seismic responses of isolated bridges are numerically investigated varying with relative stiffness ratio(RSR), which is a ratio of the effective stiffness of isolator to the lateral stiffness of bridge pier, From the results, it is found that an adequate range of relative stiffness ratio could be defined for seismic design of isolated bridges without considering the flexibility of piers.

최근 대규모의 지진피해로 인해 내진설계에 대한 관심이 높아지면서, LRB(Lead Rubber Bearing), FPS(Friction Pendulum System) 등 다양한 지진격리장치에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서 E-Shape 강재이력댐퍼를 이용한 지진격리장치의 성능 평가를 위해 E-Shape 댐퍼의 동적거동 실험을 수행하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 해석적 연구를 위한 수치모델을 제안하였다. 또한, 제안된 E-Shape 강재이력댐퍼의 수치모델을 6자유도를 가진 5층 건물에 적용하여 LRB 시스템과 이력거동을 비교하여 지진격리성능 평가를 수행하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 제안된 수치모델은 실제 E-Shape 강재이력댐퍼의 동적거동을 적절히 묘사할 수 있으며, E-Shape 강재이력댐퍼는 비선형 거동을 통한 에너지를 적절히 소산시킴으로서 기존 시스템과 비교하여 충분히 지진격리성능을 발휘할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
