파이핑은 가장 대표적인 제방의 붕괴 유형으로 불투수성 수리구조물과 지반 경계면에서 Backward Erosion Piping인 루핑(Roofing)이 흔하게 발생한다. 루핑에 대한 검토는 주로 경험적 방법인 크립비를 이용하지만 이는 지반-구조물 경계면의 특성을 고려하지 않는 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 지반-구조물 경계면 특성이 루핑에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 모형시험과 수치해석을 이용하여 파이핑 위험도를 고찰하였다. 모형시험에서 경계면 조도가 커질수록 파이핑 포텐셜이 감소함을 확인하였으며, 이를 수치해석에 적용하였다. 기존의 일반적인 수치해석방법은 수위차만을 고려하므로 경계면에서의 입자거동을 적절히 모사할 수 없다. 논문에서는 침투해석을 통해 침투력을 구하고, 입자해석기법을 이용해 파이핑의 입자거동을 모사한 침투-입자거동 연계해석을 수행하여 지반-구조물 경계면 조건에 따른 루핑 포텐셜을 조사하였다. 해석결과 경계면의 조도가 감소할수록 루핑 발생 확률이 증가함을 확인하였다.

This article presents a proposed analytical methodology to determine seismic force-resisting system R-values for steel diagrid framed systems. As current model building codes do not explicitly address the seismic design performance factors for this new and emerging structural system, the purpose of this study is to provide a sound and reliable basis for defining such seismic design parameters. An approach and methodology for the reliable determination of seismic performance factors for use in the design of steel diagrid framed structural systems is proposed. The recommended methodology is based on current state-of-the-art and state-of-the practice methods including structural nonlinear dynamic analysis techniques, testing data requirements, building code design procedures and earthquake ground motion characterization. In determining appropriate seismic performance factors (R, ${\Omega}_O$, $C_d$) for new archetypical building structural systems, the methodology defines acceptably low values of probability against collapse under maximum considered earthquake ground shaking.

Natural disasters such as a ground collapse and a landslide have broken out due to the climate change of the Korea and the reckless expansion of cities and roads. The climate changes and the reckless urbanization have made the ground weak. Thus, it is important to keep a close eye on the highly weakened landslide and to prevent its natural disasters. In order to prevent these disasters, this paper presents a system of recognizing the road slide condition by measuring the displacements using laser scanner instrument. The previous system of monitoring the road slide has some problems as inaccurate recognition due to using only images from a camera, or expensive system such as artificial satellites and aircraft systems. To solve this problem, our proposed system uses the 3D range data from the laser scanner for measuring the accurate displacement of the road slide and optical flows from the Lucas-Kanade algorithm for recognizing the road slide in the image.

The slope of the road in the forest area has a characteristic of steep slope, so natural disasters such as slope collapse occur. The slope displacement observation technique according to landslide is being studied as a method to observe a wide area and a method to observe a small area. This is a study on high-precision digital map generation using ground LiDAR. It is possible to create a high - precision digital map by minimizing the US side using the 3D LiDAR in the steep slope area where the GPS and Total Station measurement are difficult in the maintenance of the danger slope area. It is difficult to objectively evaluate whether the contour lines generated by LiDAR are correct and it is considered necessary to construct a test bed for this purpose. Based on this study, if terrain changes such as landslides occur in the future, it will be useful for measuring slope displacement.

This paper verifies the difference of the seismic behavior and seismic damage of the neighboring two reinforced concrete piers damaged by the 1995 Hyogoken Nanbu earthquake. The two piers were almost the same size, carrying slightly different dead load, and were provided with the same reinforcement arrangement except the amount of longitudinal reinforcement at the bottom portion of the piers. The pier with more reinforcement was completely collapsed due to this near field earthquake by shear failure at the longitudinal reinforcement cut-off while the other was only damaged at the bottom by flexure even though the longitudinal reinforcement cut-off was also existed at the mid height of the pier. According to the results of the pseudo dynamic test, the seismic damage was recognized to be greatly dependent on the ground motion characteristics even though the employed ground motions had the same peak acceleration. The severe damage was observed when the test employed the seismic wave that had strong influence to the longer period range compared to the initial natural period of the pier. On the other hand, based on the similar model experiment, the defect of gas-pressure welded splice of longitudinal reinforcement was revealed to save the piers against collapse due to the so-called fail-safe mechanism contrary to the intuitive opinion of some researchers. It was concluded that the primary cause of the collapse of the pier was the extremely strong intensity and peculiar characteristics of the earthquake motion according to both the site-specific and the structure-specific effects.

터널 구조물 안정성은 굴착하는 지반강도에 전적으로 좌우되는 특성이 있다. 지반강도가 약한 경우에는 터널 굴착 공사중 붕락이 자주 발생하게 된다. 일반적으로 이러한 조건에서는 분할굴착 또는 사전 보강을 실시하여 굴착 중 붕락에 대비하게 된다. 그럼에도 불구하고 연약대에서는 상반굴착 중 천단부 붕락이 발생할 수 있는데 이러한 사례는 많고 붕락 부위에 대해서 보강공법 적용을 통해 복구가 가능하다. 터널 바닥부에서 융기가 발생하는 경우에는 상부구간까지 악영향을 미치므로 터널 구조물 전체적인 안정성에 치명적인 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 하부구간이 불량한 경우에는 반드시 심도 있는 보강검토가 필요하다. 터널 바닥부 융기로 인해 터널 안정성에 위해한 영향을 주는 사례가 최근에 터널 장대화와 관련되어 증가하고 있으므로 보강적용 기준에 대한 연구가 필요하고 본 연구에서는 실제 현장 하부구간 융기사례들을 조사하여 거동특성과 보강방안을 분석하였다.

지표침하를 발생시키는 다양한 원인 중에 하나로 알려진 지하에서 발생되는 공동은 지반의 불연속적 특징이다. 그러므로 기존의 연속체해석으로 분석하기에는 한계가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 지표침하를 발생시키는 구형지하공동에 대해서 개별요소법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 지표침하에 영향을 미치는 구형지하공동의 특성인자로서 지반의 물성치, 구형지하공동의 심도 및 크기를 선택하였고, 각 특성인자들의 값의 변화가 지표침하에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하였다. 또한 지하공동의 직경에 대한 상대적 깊이와 지표침하의 관계를 분석하였고, 이를 통해 지하공동의 붕괴 예측 및 보강유무를 결정하기 위한 근간을 제시하였다.

사면 구조물은 시간이 경과함에 따라 대상지반에서 각종 열화 현상이 진행되어 내구성의 저하로 인한 붕괴가 발생할 수 있으며, 사용 연한을 감소시키는 결과를 초래하게 된다. 이러한 지반 열화에 따른 사면안정에 대한 접근방안은 지반의 물리적 특성 및 기하학적인 구조에 국한하여 분석하는 기존의 한계 평형 해석과는 또 다른 개념이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 사면의 열화 특성과 관련하여 각종 문헌 조사를 통하여 비교분석을 수행하고, 전단강도 저감에 대한 최적의 제안식들로서 지수함수, 로그함수 및 역쌍곡선 함수를 제시하고, 열화에 취약한 양산 단층대의 셰일층에서 붕괴가 발생한 경부고속철도 절토사면을 대상으로 사례분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서는 사례분석을 통하여 향후 열화로 인한 사면 안전성과 관련하여 정량적인 평가를 위한 최적의 강도 저하 곡선을 도출하고 한계평형해석에 의한 안정해석을 할 수 있는 접근 방법을 제시하였다.

Seismic fragility was assessed for non-seismic reinforced concrete shear walls in Korean high-rise apartment buildings in order to implement an earthquake damage prediction system. Seismic hazard was defined with an earthquake scenario, in which ground motion intensity was varied with respect to prescribed seismic center distances given an earthquake magnitude. Ground motion response spectra were computed using Korean ground motion attenuation equations to match accelerograms. Seismic fragility functions were developed using nonlinear static and dynamic analysis for comparison. Differences in seismic fragility between damage state criteria including inter-story drifts and the performance of individual structural members were investigated. The analyzed building had an exceptionally long period for the fundamental mode in the longitudinal direction and corresponding contribution of higher modes because of a prominently insufficient wall quantity in such direction. The results showed that nonlinear static analyses based on a single mode tend to underestimate structural damage. Moreover, detailed assessments of structural members are recommended for seismic fragility assessment of a relatively low performance level such as collapse prevention. On the other hand, inter-story drift is a more appropriate criterion for a relatively high performance level such as immediate occupancy.

Buckling-restrained braces are passive control devices with high level of energy dissipation ability. However, they suffer from low post-yield stiffness which makes them vulnerable to severe ground motions, especially near-field earthquakes. Among the several methods proposed to improve resistance of BRB frames, mega-brace configuration can be a solution to increase frame lateral strength and stiffness and improve distribution of forces to prevent large displacement in braces. Due to the limited number of research regarding the performance of such systems, the current paper aims to assess seismic performance of BRB frames with mega-bracing arrangement under near-field earthquakes via a detailed probabilistic framework. For this purpose, a group of multi-story mega-BRB frames were modelled by OpenSEES software platform. In the first part of the paper, simplified procedures including nonlinear pushover and Incremental Dynamic Analysis were conducted for performance evaluation. Two groups of near-fault seismic ground motions (Non-pulse and Pulse-like records) were considered for analyses to take into account the effects of record-to-record uncertainties, as well as forward directivity on the results. In the second part, seismic reliability analyses are conducted in the context of performance based earthquake engineering. Two widely-known EDP-based and IM-based probabilistic frameworks are employed to estimate collapse potential of the structures. Results show that all the structures can successfully tolerate near-field earthquakes with a high level of confidence level. Therefore, mega-bracing configuration can be an effective alternative to conventional BRB bracing to withstand near-field earthquakes.
