Nowadays, many engineers believe that hybrid structures with reinforced concrete central core walls and perimeter steel frames offer an economical method to develop the strength and stiffness required for seismic design. As a result, a variety of such structures have recently been applied in actual construction. However, the performance-based seismic design of such structures has not been investigated systematically. In the performance-based seismic design, quantifying the seismic damage of complete structures by damage indices is one of the fundamental issues. Four damage states and the final softening index at each state for high-rise hybrid structures are suggested firstly in this paper. Based on nonlinear dynamic analysis, the relation of the maximum inter-story drift, the main structural characteristics, and the final softening index is obtained. At the same time, the relation between the maximum inter-story drift and the maximum roof displacement over the height is also acquired. A double-variable index accounting for maximum deformation and cumulative energy is put forward based on the pushover analysis. Finally, a case study is conducted on a high-rise hybrid structure model tested on shaking table before to verify the suggested quantities of damage indices.

Seismically induced structural damage, as well as any damage caused by a natural catastrophic event, covers a wide area. This suggests to supervise the event consequences by vision tools. This paper reports the evolution from the results obtained by the project RADATT (RApid Damage Assessment Telematics Tool) funded by the European Commission within FP4. The aim was to supply a rapid and reliable damage detector/estimator for an area where a catastrophic event had occurred. Here, a general open-source methodology for the detection and the estimation of the damage caused by natural catastrophes is developed. The suitable available hazard and vulnerability data and satellite pictures covering the area of interest represent the required bits of information for updated telematics tools able to manage it. As a result the global damage is detected by the simple use of open source software. A case-study to a highly dense agglomerate of buildings is discussed in order to provide the main details of the proposed methodology.

Interest on ocean environment has increased with the development of industrialized activities. Public marine resorces are defined broadly to include fish stocks, beaches, marine waters, recreational fishing, biota, waterfowls, shorebirds, seabirds and marine mammals But, it is not easy to analyze compensation for injury to publicly owned marine resources because the claimants do not exist clearly and the economic methodology of damage on public goods is not developed fully. This paper introduces basic idea of welfare economic theory and environmental legislation to the research question : How the economics and law can be applied to the case of damage on publicly owned marine resource. The paper discusses the concepts of willingness to pay (WTP) and willingness to accept (WTA). It is accepted generally that WTA is correct concept of welfare change in the case of damaged public goods. Four methods (compensating variation, equivalent variation, compensating surplus, equivalent surplus of measuring welfare changes are compared. Compensating variation(CV) is the best measure of welfare changes are compared. Compensating variation(CV) is the best measure of welfare changes caused by environmental damage. Vartia (1983) showed CV could be measured from the ordinary demand function using the differential equations. This paper also provides an overview of the emerging U.S. and Korea legal system for compensation for natural resource damages, with particular emphasis on U.S. legal system under Comprehensive Environmen-tal Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). These regulations are to include two different types of standardized procedures for assessing natural resources injury : Type A or simplified assessment techniques for small releases ; and Type B protocols that would include detailed and extensive assessment methodologies for major releases. Type A procedures are specified by Natural Resources Damage Assessment Model for Coastal and Marine Environment (NRDAM/CME) of the U.S. CERCLA provides a legal 'legitimization for the use of economic-based nonmarket valuation in the courts and have introduced appropriate and accurate nonmarket valuation methods based on willingness to-pay for damage assessment. By briefly reviewing economic theory and environmental legislation, we hope to help provide a better understanding of the compensation process and the economics of publicly owned marine resources in the U.S. and to integrate the economics and law of natural resources valuation into a single comprehensive package in Korea.

사이버 임무 피해 정량화는 정해져있는 임무에 따라 움직여 집단의 목표를 이룩하거나 이윤을 창출하는 군(軍)이나 기업들에게 빠질 수 없는 필수적인 작업이다. 조직이 지닌 자산에 대한 피해가 발생하였을 때, 수행 목표에 대한 피해를 최소화하기 위해 남은 자산만으로 달성할 수 있는 임무의 최대 수용력(capacity)을 정량화하고 빠른 시간 안에 새로운 차선책을 마련하여야 한다. 이를 위해서자산과 임무에 대한 관계를 모델링하여 정형화하면 사이버 공격이 임무에 미친 피해 영향도를 계산할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 자산과 과업의 관리 업무를 분리하여 효율적인 관리가 가능하도록 자산과 임무 사이의 의존성에 대한 모델을 적용하였고, 적용한 모델을 바탕으로 벡터 단위의 오퍼레이션을 이용하여 계산의 병렬화나 버퍼를 이용해 연산속도를 향상시키는 등 빠른 시간 안에 계산을 완료할 수 있는 최적화된 시스템을 구현하였다.

본 논문에서는 앞으로 개발되어 전력화 예정인 제병협동통합연동체계에서 모델간 연동으로 인해서 발생가능한 문제점 중의 하나인 전투 피해평가 차이를 극복할 수 있는 근접전투 피해평가 전문가시스템을 제안하였다. 제병협동통합연동체계에서 서로 다른 모델에 속한 부대간 교전이 발생할 때에 피해평가 결과가 많은 차이를 보이고 있었는데, 이러한 피해평가의 차이는 제병협동통합연동체계의 신뢰성 문제와 직관되는 중요한 부분으로 반드시 해결되어야 할 부분이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고 신뢰할 만한 근접전투 피해평가를 위해 전문가시스템을 의사결정나무를 이용해서 제안하였다. 제안하는 전문가시스템은 실험 결과를 통해서 신뢰할 만한 결과를 보였고, 별도의 시스템으로 운용하지 않고 기존 모델에 모듈형식으로 탑재되기 때문에 시스템 측면에서 제병협동통합연동체계를 보다 단순화 시킬 수 있고 예산 절감의 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

도심지에서의 지반굴착은 배면지반의 변위와 그에 따르는 건물의 손상을 유발시킨다. 굴착에 의한 지반변위의 예측과 굴착면 주변에 위치한 건물의 손상 위험도 평가는 설계단계에서 필수적인 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 굴착에 의한 지반변위 예측기법인 Peck의 방법과 Bowles의 방법을 조합하여 지보굴착에 따르는 배면지반 변위예측방법을 제안하였다. 또한, 배면지반의 Green-field 뒤틈각과 수평변형률을 이용한 인접건물 손상위험도 평가기법을 제안하였다. 이 기법은 싱가폴에서 시공중인 대규모 지반굴착공사의 설계에 성공적으로 적용되었다.

The performance of reinforced concrete buildings subjected to earthquake excitations depends on the structural behaviour of the superstructure as well as the type of foundation and the properties of soil on which the structure is founded. The consideration of the effects due to the interaction between the structure and soil- foundation alters the seismic response of reinforced concrete buildings subjected to earthquake motion. Evaluation of the structural response of buildings for quantitative assessment of the seismic fragility has been a demanding problem for the engineers. Present research deals with development of fragility curve for building specific vulnerability assessment based on different damage parameters considering the effect of soil-structure interaction. Incremental Dynamic Analysis of fixed base and flexible base RC building models founded on different soil conditions was conducted using finite element software. Three sets of fragility curves were developed with maximum roof displacement, inter storey drift and plastic energy dissipated as engineering demand parameters. The results indicated an increase in the likelihood of exceeding various damage limits by 10-40% for flexible base condition with soft soil profiles. Fragility curve based on energy dissipated showed a higher probability of exceedance for collapse prevention damage limit whereas for lower damage states, conventional methods showed higher probability of exceedance. With plastic energy dissipated as engineering demand parameter, it is possible to track down the intensity of earthquake at which the plastic deformation starts, thereby providing an accurate vulnerability assessment of the structure. Fragility modification factors that enable the transformation of existing fragility curves to account for Soil-Structure Interaction effects based on different damage measures are proposed for different soil conditions to facilitate a congenial vulnerability assessment for buildings with flexible base conditions.

An increase in oil and gas plants caused by development of process industry have brought into the increase in use of flammable and toxic materials in the complex process under high temperature and pressure. There is always possibility of fire and explosion of dangerous chemicals, which exist as raw materials, intermediates, and finished goods whether used or stored in the industrial plants. Since there is the need of efforts on disaster damage reduction or mitigation process, we have been conducting a research to relate explosion model on the background of real 3D terrain model. By predicting the extent of damage caused by recent disasters, we will be able to improve efficiency of recovery and, sure, to take preventive measure and emergency counterplan in response to unprepared disaster. For disaster damage prediction, it is general to conduct quantitative risk assessment, using engineering model for environmentaldescription of the target area. There are different engineering models, according to type of disaster, to be used for industry disaster such as UVCE (Unconfined Vapor Cloud Explosion), BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Evaporation Vapor Explosion), Fireball and so on, among them.we estimate explosion damage through UVCE model which is used in the event of explosion of high frequency and severe damage. When flammable gas in a tank is released to the air, firing it brings about explosion, then we can assess the effect of explosion. As 3D terrain information data is utilized to predict and estimate the extent of damage for each human and material. 3D terrain data with synthetic environment (SEDRIS) gives us more accurate damage prediction for industrial disaster and this research will show appropriate prediction results.

현대 화학 플랜트는 공정 및 설비가 복잡화, 세분화됨으로써 대규모 잠재 위험성이 증가하는 실정이다. 내부 화학물질이 난류, 층류, 압력, 온도, 마찰 등으로 인해 여러 조건하에 운영될 때 과도한 응력이 발생하고 이러한 발생 응력이 누적되면서 피로 등의 문제로 화학 설비 및 장치가 손상되거나 파열될 가능성이 존재한다. 사고통계에 따르면 여름철 화학 사고의 발생 빈도는 다른 계절에 비해 높게 나타나며 최근 5년간 발생한 화학 사고에서 누출에 의한 사고는 유형별 사고 중 압도적인 비율을 차지한다. 화학물질의 누출은 폭발 및 환경오염을 포함한 큰 인명 및 경제적 피해를 일으킬 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 계절별로 화학 플랜트 배관 누출 시 위험성 및 피해영향 평가를 수행하기 위해 실제 프로필렌 누출사고 현장을 3D 스캐너를 활용하여 재구성하고 FLACS를 활용하여 계절별 최대농도, 끝점거리 및 확산 거동을 비교 분석함으로써 프로필렌의 계절별 누출 거동을 도출하였다. 그 결과 여름에 화학물질이 누출될 경우 다른 계절에 비해 위험성이 크게 나타나는 것을 확인하였으며 이를 통해 계절별 안전관리 대책 및 방안을 제시하였다.
