본 연구는 최적설계 프로그램에 의해 PSC 박스 거더교를 최소경비로 자동 설계하고, 이를 다양한 Type의 교량 형식에 적용하여 강교나 콘크리트교량에 사용되는 일반적인 사항들이 PSC 교량에 어느 정도 부합이 되는지 검토하였다. 즉 연속교에서 부등 경간 분할교량과 등경간 분할교량을 비교하여 적정한 부등 경간 분할 비율을 산정하였고, 시대별ㆍ시방서별로 달리하는 하중계수가 PSC 박스 교량의 최적설계에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 또한 철근 콘크리트 교량 및 강교에 미관적으로 수려하고 재료 절감에 효과를 보이는 변단면을 PSC-박스형 거더교에 적용하여 보았다. 사용된 최적설계 프로그램은 축차 무제약 최소화 기법을 이용하였고, 설계과정에서 설계점들이 설계가능 영역밖에 있더라도 허용할 수 있도록 Kavlie가 제안한 확장 벌칙함수를 도입하였다. 또한 설계점들의 탐사 방법은 Powell's direct search method를 사용하며, 설계시간을 단축시키기 위해 설계점 변화에 따른 단면력 변화를 gradient를 이용하여 근사화 시키는 방법을 사용하였다.

A procedure of the design optimization for steel box girder bridges using micro genetic algorithms(μGA) is developed. The effect of population size is investigated and the efficiency and reliability of μGA is demonstrated in the optimum design of steel box girder bridges. Optimum design problems of steel box girder bridges are formulated, where tile design of concrete slab is based on the USD specifications and steel box girder based on LRFD respectively.

In the preliminary design stage of Prestressed Concrete (PSC) Box Girder Bridges, the design factors(including depth, thickness of web, and jacking force) decided by inexperience designer could heavily affect the final design factors. So there is a possibility that the design ends up with an excessively wasteful design. To aim at an economical design with preventing an excessive design, the optimal design program has been developed by using ADS optimal program and SPCFRAME(PSC Bridge analysis program) in these studies. The optimal design program automatically calculates economically optimized design studies. The optimal design program automatically calculates economically optimized design factors by introducing the optimal design techniques of PSC box girder bridge design. The objective function for optimal design is material cost of box girder and constrained functions are constituted with design specifications and workability. The optimal design techniques used the Sequential Unconstraint Minimization Technique (SUMT) with performing the optimal design program. In this study, We designed unprismatic section bridge and prismatic section bridge in the same design condition by optimal design program developed in this study. By analyzing the results we suggested the practical form of tendon's layout comparing the optimal desingns on the basis of each tendon's layout.

Bridges and tunnels mainly compose the structural system of Kyung-bu high-speed railway in Korea and the prestressed concrete box girder bridges are applied for the most part of bridge structures. Precast full span construction method was practiced in the construction of many prestressed concrete box girder bridges in Kyung-bu high speed railway for the high quality, great construction speed, low construction cost and construction safety. However, there have been no application of this method in continuous bridges until now. Therefore, a new advanced precast full span construction method is developed using pre-tensioning for precast and post-tensioning in alternating the simple span into a continuous bridge system. since the high-speed railway trains can cause dynamic problems in a continuous bridge. This study shows the structural behavior and the construction process of the new advance method.

Updating model parameters are required in order to simulate the actual behavior of the dynamic structure. A new strategy, mean-iterative neural networks (MINNs) has been proposed in this paper for model parameter updating of a steel box girder bridge. With new strategy for structural dynamic model updating, it offers many advantages such as potential savings of computational effort, more consistent in reaching convergence. The dynamic response obtained from the experimental test on a two span continuous bridge is used as the target for model updating. And the presented algorithm is applied to update the model parameters. These results show a good possible of using MINNs in practice for dynamic model updating.

The Korea high-speed rail, based on the French design. It also implements new concept to increase the strength of bridge deck by adding an impact factor (dynamic intensity factor) in static load. In order to assure the dynamic stability, SYSTRA and Jeseph Penzien, a professor in CEC (the US) conducted a dynamic stability review on design phase. Analyzing the review results, they developed design criteria for dynamic behavior. This study deal with operating PSC box GIRDER equipped with measurement equipment or measured data of Seoul $\∼$ Taejeon, P.S.C BOX GIRDER bridge and steel comsition bridge equipped with measurement equipment based on structual knowledge about configuration of measuring sensor, response analysis of structure when train runs was performed by using measured data of PSC box girder to directly compare with design criteria. moreover, the dynamic stability with comparison of high-speed rail construction criteria was reviewed and analyzed based on historical records.

The occurrence of longitudinal cracking in concrete deck of box girder bridge is affected by many factors, but the most important factors are the shrinkage and thermal gradient of deck slabs. In this study, therefore, the tensile stresses at the bottom of deck were calculated from the experimental data(autogeneous shrinkage, drying shrinkage, and thermal gradient of deck slab). Also, the possibility of longitudinal cracks at bottom of deck was estimated. For this purpose, full-scale box girder segments have been fabricated and tested. The thermal gradients and shrinkage strains of deck slabs were measured after placement of concrete. Also, analytic program was conducted for the evaluation of longitudinal cracking in bridge deck considering differential shrinkage induced from non-uniform moisture distributions in concrete.

Magnetic Levitated(Maglev) Vehicle, which utilizes electromagnetic forces between dual-pole electromagnets and a steel rail, generally runs on guideway structures. A prototype of an Urban Maglev Vehicle has been developed and tested in Korea, This study was conducted as a cooperation research subject of the 3-1 subject, performance improvement of maglev track structures, of the Center for Urban Maglev Program, statred in 2006. As the Maglev load is distributed rather than concentrated, a field test was conducted on Simple Span PSC-BOX Girder Bridge(L=25.0m) of the Expo-Maglev test track in Daejeon to examine the dynamic effect of the Maglev load on the bridge. Numerical analyses were also performed up to the maximum passing speed of 110 km/h by 10 km/h increments of Maglev Vehicle using Finite Element model of bridge, and girder deflections, accelerations and Dynamic Amplification Factor (DAF) are analysed.

Wind tunnel test is one of the most important means to study the flutter performance of bridges, but there are blockage effects in flutter test due to the size limitation of the wind tunnel. On the other hand, the size of computational domain can be defined by users in the numerical simulation. This paper presents a study on blockage effects of a simplified box girder by computation fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation, the blockage effects on the aerodynamic characteristics and flutter performance of a long-span suspension bridge are studied. The results show that the aerodynamic coefficients and the absolute value of mean pressure coefficient increase with the increase of the blockage ratio. And the aerodynamic coefficients can be corrected by the mean wind speed in the plane of leading edge of model. At each angle of attack, the critical flutter wind speed decreases as the blockage ratio increases, but the difference is that bending-torsion coupled flutter and torsional flutter occur at lower and larger angles of attack respectively. Finally, the correction formula of critical wind speed at 0° angle of attack is given, which can provide reference for wind resistance design of streamlined box girders in practical engineering.

PSC box girder bridges are built through the repetitive manufacturing process of concrete segment. However, during the initial segment manufacturing stage, design change may occur frequently due to design errors and interferences between components, resulting in the extension of segment manufacturing period. This paper aims to verify the manufacturing process of PSC box girder segment by 3D simulation technique. All the components of a segment were modelled and assembled by simulation technique and then, some design errors were found and revised appropriately to optimize the manufacturing process of segment. Consequently, 3D simulation technique would be promising to improve the quality of the segment and to reduce its manufacturing time and cost.
