The objective of the earthquake resistant design of structures is to satisfy on the one side the minimization of damage requirement under earthquakes with high probability of occurrence during the design life and on the other side the no collapse requirement under the design seismic event with low probability of occurrence. The two requirements are satisfied with the minimum strength of substructure as well as the ductile failure mechanism presented in the codes. In this study seismic performance is evaluated with two bridges which have steel box superstructures and T type, II type piers as substructures. In order to satisfy the two requirements redesign of both substructures and steel bearings are carried out.

For major nuclear power plant components periodic inspections and integrity assessments are needed for the safety. But many flaws are undetectable due to sampling inspection. Probabilistic integrity assessment is applied to take into consideration of uncertainty and variance of input parameters arise due to material properties, applied load and undetectable flaws. This paper describes a Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics(PFM) analysis based on Monte Carlo(MC) algorithms. Taking important parameters as probabilistic variables such as fracture toughness, crack growth rate and flaw shape, failure probability of major nuclear power plant components is archived as a results of MC simulation. For the verification of these analysis, a comparison study of the PFM analysis using other commercial code, mathematical method is carried out and a good agreement was observed between those results.

In this paper probabilistic fracture mechanics(PFM) approach is employed to evaluate the integrity of CANDU Zr-2.5Nb pressure tubes. Modified failure assessment diagram(Jr-FAD), plastic collapse, and critical crack length(CCL) approach are used for evaluating failure probability of the tubes. Jr-FAD was extended from the Kr-FAD because fracture of pressure tubes occurs in brittle manner due to hydrogen embrittlement of material by deuterium fluence. For developing the probabilistic integrity evaluation module, AECL procedures and fracture toughness parameters of EPRI were used.

최근 빈번하게 발생하는 노후 필댐의 붕괴 사고로 인해 안전관리에 대한 사회적 관심이 높아지고 있다. 지금까지 국내에서는 설계 당시 보수적인 설계기준에 근거한 설계 홍수량을 기준으로 필댐의 안정성을 단순하게 평가하고 있다. 하지만 해외 주요 국가에서는 사건수 분석 기법과 같은 체계적인 위험도 평가 기법을 도입하여 이미 오랜 기간 동안 필댐을 관리 운영하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 노후화된 국내 필댐의 체계적인 위험도 분석을 위해 사건수 분석 기법을 이용한 미공병단 내부 침식 평가 기법을 적용하여 필댐의 내부 침식에 대한 지반공학적 시스템 반응 확률을 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과는 지반공학적 시스템 반응 확률이 결함의 존재 확률과 동수경사의 크기에 가장 큰 영향을 받으며 노후된 필댐의 위험도를 정량적으로 평가할 수 있음을 보여준다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of the small reservoir, which is distributed in a rural area, based on systemic reliability. It has been estimated that safety of respective reservoir the calculation of failure probability for individual reservoirs can evaluate the safety of the reservoir of the study area. The change of safety for watershed could be figured out as that result. Probability of failure was increased from $3.90{\times}10^{-5}$ to $1.35{\times}10^{-4}$ in Naesu-inpyung reservoir, from $1.33{\times}10^{-5}$ to $4.77{\times}10^{-5}$ in Buyeon reservoir and from $4.24{\times}10^{-5}$ to $2.55{\times}10^{-2}$ in Dalakmal respectively. From the results, the collapse of the upper stream reservoir was analyzed qualitatively that may affect the safety of the reservoir on the downstream area.

In recent years, much research work has been performed on durability design and long-term performance of concrete structures in marine environments. In particular, the development of new procedures for probability-based durability design has been shown to provide a more realistic basis for the analysis. This approach has been successfully applied to several new concrete structures, where requirements for a more controlled durability and service life have been specified. For reinforced concrete structures in a marine environment, it is commonly assumed that the dominant degradation mechanism is the corrosion of the reinforcement due to the presence of chlorides. The design approach is based on the verification of durability limit states, examples of which are: depassivation of reinforcement, cracking and spalling due to corrosion, and collapse due to cross section loss of reinforcement. With this design approach the probability of failure can be determined as a function of time. In the present paper, a probability-based durability performance analysis is used in order to demonstrate the importance of the durability design approach of concrete structures in marine environments. In addition, the sensitivity of the various durability parameters affecting and controlling the durability of concrete structures in a marine environment is studied. Results show that the potential of this approach to assist durability design decisions making process is great. Based the crucial information generated, it is possible to prolong the service life of structures while simultaneously optimizing the final design solution.

The purpose of this paper is to present the state of practice being used in the Philippines for the performance-based seismic design of reinforced concrete tall buildings. Initially, the overall methodology follows "An Alternative Procedure for Seismic Analysis and Design of Tall Buildings Located in the Los Angeles Region, 2008", which was developed by Los Angeles Tall Buildings Structural Design Council. After 2010, the design procedure follows "Tall Buildings Initiative, Guidelines for Performance-Based Seismic Design of Tall Buildings, 2010" developed by Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER). After the completion of preliminary design in accordance with code-based design procedures, the performance of the building is checked for serviceable behaviour for frequent earthquakes (50% probability of exceedance in 30 years, i.e,, with 43-year return period) and very low probability of collapse under extremely rare earthquakes (2% of probability of exceedance in 50 years, i.e., 2475-year return period). In the analysis, finite element models with various complexity and refinements are used in different types of analyses using, linear-static, multi-mode pushover, and nonlinear-dynamic analyses, as appropriate. Site-specific seismic input ground motions are used to check the level of performance under the potential hazard, which is likely to be experienced. Sample project conducted using performance-based seismic design procedures is also briefly presented.

우리나라 해안공학계에서 신뢰성 기반설계가 빠르게 체화되는 계기를 제공하기 위해 다 수의 한계상태를 지닌 직립방파제 신뢰성 해석과 신뢰성 기반 최적 설계를 우리나라를 대표하는 항이 운영 중인 부산, 군산 전면해역을 대상으로 수행하였다. 이 과정에서 상당한 정도의 신뢰성 해석을 수행하기 위해, 특정 재현 빈도의 설계 파 사용은 지양하였으며, 직립방파제의 파괴 여부를 결정하는 확률변수인 파력, 양력, 전도 모멘트에 내재한 불확실성은 장기 파랑 관측자료를 빈도 해석하여 얻은 확률모형을 사용하여 기술하였다. 직립식 방파제의 한계상태는 활동, 전도, 지지력을 고려하여 세 개로 구성하였으며, 파력과 양력, 모멘트 사이의 밀접한 상관성은 Nataf 결합확률분포를 사용하여 기술하였다. 모의 결과, 쉽게 예상해볼 수 있듯 활동만을 고려하는 경우 파괴확률이 과소하게 산출되는것을 확인하였으며, 특정 재현 빈도에 근거한 설계 파랑으로는 방파제 파괴확률을 일정하게 담보할 수 없다는 것을 확인하였다. 이에 비해 신뢰 지수가 𝛽 = 3.5~4를 충족하도록 최적 설계된 방파제는 두 해역에서 모두 균질한 파괴확률을 확보하는 것으로 모의 되었다.

사면은 건설된 후에도 집중강우나 지진, 풍화 등 외부요인으로 인해 파괴가 발생할 수 있기 때문에, 사면의 안정적 유지관리를 위해서는 사면 붕괴의 가능성을 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 특히 암반사면은 암석의 취성적인 특성으로 인해 변위 계측 등과 같은 일반적인 방법으로는 파괴발생이전에 사전징후를 감지하기 매우 어렵다. 그러나 AE 기법을 사면에 적용한다면 변위가 발생하기 전에 파괴 시 발생된 AE 신호를 분석함으로써 일반적인 계측 방법보다 초기에 상태파악이 가능할 것이다. 본 논문에서는 한국의 암반사면 중 붕괴 이력을 가지고 있는 사면에 AE 기법을 적용하여 사면붕괴 가능성을 파악하였다. 그 결과 붕괴위험이 있는 사면에 AE 기법을 적용하면 사면의 위치별 붕괴 가능성을 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

This article details a bridge-specific fragility method developed to enhance the seismic design and resilience of bridges. Current seismic design processes provide guidance for the design of a bridge that will not collapse during a design hazard event. However, they do not provide performance information of the bridge at different hazard levels or due to design changes. Therefore, there is a need for a supplement to this design process that will provide statistical information on the performance of a bridge, beyond traditional emphases on collapse prevention. This article proposes a bridge-specific parameterized fragility method to enable efficient estimation of various levels of damage probability for alternative bridge design parameters. A multi-parameter demand model is developed to incorporate bridge design details directly in the fragility estimation. Monte Carlo simulation and Logistic regression are used to determine the fragility of the bridge or bridge component. The resulting parameterized fragility model offers a basis for a bridge-specific design tool to explore the influence of design parameter variation on the expected performance of a bridge. When used as part of the design process, these tools can help to transform a prescriptive approach into a more performance-based approach, efficiently providing probabilistic performance information about a new bridge design. An example of the method and resulting fragility estimation is presented.
