In this paper, the structural characteristics of a lightweight soundproof tunnel to reduce the dead load imposed on the bridge are investigated. Subsequently, the design procedure of soundproof tunnel structures is reviewed and a design practice for the lightweight soundproof tunnel is carried out according to the reviewed procedure. Next, design compatibility for the lightweight soundproof tunnel is verified through a detailed finite element analysis. The result for evaluation of design compatibility shows that the lightweight soundproof tunnel has structural safety in structural members, welding zones and foundation parts. It is also confirmed that serviceability and buckling safety is excellent.

In this paper, an integrated damage identification system (IDIS) is proposed to locate and size damage in real structures. The application of the IDIS to real structures includes the measurement of modal responses, the construction of damage-detection models, and the implementation of measurements and models into the damage-detection process. Firstly, the theory of the damage identification method is outlined. Secondly, the schematic and each component of the IDIS are described. Finally, the practicality of the IDIS is verified from experiments on two different bridge-models, a model plate-grider and a model truss.

There is a concern with worldwide deterioration of highway bridges, particularly reinforced concrete. The advantages of fibre reinforced plastic(FRP) composites over conventional materials motivate their use in highway bridges for replacement of structures. Recently, an FRP deck has been installed on a state highway, located in New York State, as an experimental project. In this paper, a systematic approach for analysis of this FRP deck bridge is presented. Multi-step linear numerical analyses have been performed using the finite element method to study the structural behavior and the possible failure mechanism of the FRP deck-superstructure system Deck's self-weight and ply orientations at the interface between steel girders and FRP deck are considered in this study. From this research, the results of the numerical analyses were corroborated with field test results. Analytical results reveal several potential failure mechanism for the FRP deck and truss bridge system The results presented in this study may be used to propose engineering design guideline for new and replacement FRP bridge deck structure.

As the volume of traffic in southern part of the republic of Korea grew, expansion of transportation was required. In that purpose, the railway between Samnangjin and Gwangyang is being extended to a double-track line. This construction includes Nakdong bridge located across Nakdong river. This truss bridge is constructed in incremental launching method (ILM) and composed of two sections, straight line and curved one. Bridge construction in the method goes with the shift of roller supports which results in the change of structural system. To accomplish safe construction, the measurement during the whole launching stages. The locations of member in severe condition and the corresponding response values were estimated through the preliminary construction stage analysis. Based on the analysis, the measurement during construction was planned. Several sensors and measurement devices were installed at appropriate locations. During the whole launching stages, the measurement was performed and the corresponding data were monitored and stored in real time. The comparison of the responses from the analysis and the measurement showed no indication of yielding of the structural members. Consequently, the construction of Nakdong bridge was concluded to be relevant.

Recently, an indirect displacement estimation method using data fusion of acceleration and strain (i.e., acceleration-strain-based method) has been developed. Though the method showed good performance on beam-like structures, it has inherent limitation in applying to more general types of bridges that may have complex shapes, because it uses assumed analytical (sinusoidal) mode shapes to map the measured strain into displacement. This paper proposes an improved displacement estimation method that can be applied to more general types of bridges by building the mapping using the finite element model of the structure rather than using the assumed sinusoidal mode shapes. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by numerical simulations on a deck arch bridge model and a three-span truss bridge model whose mode shapes are difficult to express as analytical functions. The displacements are estimated by acceleration-based method, strain-based method, acceleration-strain-based method, and the improved method. Then the results are compared with the exact displacement. An experimental validation is also carried out on a prestressed concrete girder bridge. The proposed method is found to provide the best estimate for dynamic displacements in the comparison, showing good agreement with the measurements as well.

구조물의 대표적 동적특성인 고유진동수 및 모드형상은 손상평가, 구조계추정기법 등과 결합한 구조건전성 평가분야에서 매우 중요한 기초 자료로 활용되고 있다. 그러나 해양구조물이나 대경간 교량과 같은 대형 구조물의 경우 진동원을 정확히 계측하기 힘들기 때문에 소규모의 구조물에 많이 쓰이는 기존의 모달 테스트 기법으로는 구조물의 진동특성을 구할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 경간이 긴 대형 트러스 구조물을 대상으로 가속도 응답만으로 고유진동수 및 모드형상을 추출할 수 있는 방법을 연구하였다. 트러스 구조물의 수치해석 모델을 이용하여 가속도 응답 및 주파수 응답함수의 생성과정, 모드분석을 통한 고유진동수 및 모드형상 추출과정을 상세히 설명하였다. 제안한 방법으로 얻은 모드형상은 고유치 해석으로부터 계산된 모드형상과 비교하여 정확성을 검증하였으며, 모의 손상을 통한 손상평가기법에 적용하여 타당성을 입증하였다.

To assess structural condition in a non-destructive manner, computer vision-based structural health monitoring (SHM) has become a focus. Compared to traditional contact-type sensors, the advantages of computer vision-based measurement systems include lower installation costs and broader measurement areas. In this study, we propose a novel computer vision-based vibration measurement and coarse-to-fine damage assessment method for truss bridges. First, a deep learning model FairMOT is introduced to track the regions of interest (ROIs) that include joints to enhance the automation performance compared with traditional target tracking algorithms. To calculate the displacement of the tracked ROIs accurately, a normalized cross-correlation method is adopted to fine-tune the offset, while the Harris corner matching is utilized to correct the vibration displacement errors caused by the non-parallel between the truss plane and the image plane. Then, based on the advantages of the stochastic damage locating vector (SDLV) and Bayesian inference-based stochastic model updating (BI-SMU), they are combined to achieve the coarse-to-fine localization of the truss bridge's damaged elements. Finally, the severity quantification of the damaged components is performed by the BI-SMU. The experiment results show that the proposed method can accurately recognize the vibration displacement and evaluate the structural damage.

최근 국내 사장교는 경관적인 요소를 위하여 비정형적인 형태가 시도되고 있다. 새로운 기하구조가 적용된 사장교는 그 특성을 명확히 분석하여 구조안전성을 확보할 필요가 있다. 본 연구 대상 교량은 S자형 곡선 보도사장교로 S자형 평면곡선과 역삼각형트러스 횡단면을 가진 보강거더, 곡선반경 내측에 1면으로 배치된 경사 주탑과 modified Fan 타입 주케이블, 수직 백스테이케이블이 적용되었다. 곡선사장교는 직선사장교와 같이 종방향의 거동에만 초점을 두고 장력을 조정할 경우 횡방향으로 과다한 변위와 모멘트가 발생 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 주케이블이 교량의 횡방향 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해서, 장력에 의한 주탑의 횡방향 변위 방향에 따라 케이블을 2개 그룹으로 나누었다. 지간중앙부 케이블 그룹을 GR1, 주탑지점부 케이블 그룹을 GR2라 할 때 GR1과 GR2의 조합비율이 보강거더, 받침, 주탑 그리고 수직앵커케이블에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구대상 교량에 적용된 장력비율을 1.0GR1+1.0GR2라 하였을 때, 1.2GR1+0.8GR2의 조합에서 주탑지점부 보강거더의 좌측과 우측 상현재 응력이 최소가 되었고, 좌우 부재의 편차도 최소가 되었다. 또한, 받침의 수평력, 주탑의 횡방향 변위와 모멘트, 수직백스테이케이블의 장력도 감소하였다. 본 연구는 유사한 기하구조를 가진 사장교의 장력 결정시 기초 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구의 대상교량은 세로보와 레일의 중심선이 일치하지 않으며 편심거리가 존재한다. 편심이 존재하지 않는 설계-시공이라면 실제 세로보에서는 열차 하중에 의해 휨 응력만이 발생하게 된다. 그러나 실제 설계-시공 상에서는 세로보와 레일의 중심선이 일치하지 않고 이러한 세로보와 레일의 편심에 의해서 침목에 휨이 발생한다. 이에 따라 침목과 연결되어 있는 세로보에는 휨 응력뿐만 아니라 추가로 비틀림 응력도 발생하게 된다. 이러한 비틀림 응력이 세로보 절취부에 미치는 영향과 수직 브레이싱을 설치하였을 경우의 영향에 대해서 분석해 보도록 한다.
