KBC2009에 의하면 특수전단벽과 연결되는 폭이 좁고 춤이 높은 연결보는 대각선 다발철근 보강을 실시해야 한다. 그러나 대각선 다발 철근의 사용은 시공성과 경제성에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 것으로 예상된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 4개의 서로 다른 상세를 갖는 연결보를 대상으로 주기하중 재하 실험을 실시하여 각각의 성능을 평가하였다. 또한 그 실험결과를 바탕으로 하여 특수전단벽과 연결보로 이루어진 병렬전단벽 구조시스템을 구성하여 FEMA P695에 따른 방법론으로 내진성능평가를 실시하였다.

Past earthquakes have signaled the increased collapse vulnerability of mainshock-damaged bridge piers and urgent need of repair interventions prior to subsequent cascading hazard events, such as aftershocks, triggered by the mainshock (MS). The overarching goal of this study is to quantify the collapse vulnerability of mainshock-damaged substandard RC bridge piers rehabilitated with different repair jackets (FRP, conventional thick steel and hybrid jacket) under aftershock (AS) attacks of various intensities. The efficacy of repair jackets on post-MS resilience of repaired bridges is quantified for a prototype two-span single-column bridge bent with lap-splice deficiency at column-footing interface. Extensive number of incremental dynamic time history analyses on numerical finite element bridge models with deteriorating properties under back-to-back MS-AS sequences were utilized to evaluate the efficacy of different repair jackets on the post-repair behavior of RC bridges subjected to AS attacks. Results indicate the dramatic impact of repair jacket application on post-MS resilience of damaged bridge piers-up to 45.5 % increase of structural collapse capacity-subjected to aftershocks of multiple intensities. Besides, the efficacy of repair jackets is found to be proportionate to the intensity of AS attacks. Moreover, the steel jacket exhibited to be the most vulnerable repair intervention compared to CFRP, irrespective of the seismic sequence (severe MS-severe or moderate AS) or earthquake type (near-fault or far-fault).

수력에너지 생산량은 추계학적인 저수지 유입량에 지배되므로 전력량 판매 계약에는 이를 반영하여 합리성을 보장해야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 유입량의 신뢰도별로 저수지조작(貯水池操作)을 수행하여 최적 신뢰도 및 이에 따른 최적 전력 판매계약량을 결정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 목적함수에는 전력생산량이 신뢰도를 벗어나는 위험에 대한 손실함수를 도입하고, 손실계수의 범위를 제시하였다. 여기서 손실은 계약량을 공급하지 못할 경우 지불해야 할 벌칙량을 의미하고 신뢰도는 저수지 유입량에 대한 초과 확률과 같고, 이 때 확률밀도함수는 대수정규분포를 5% 유의수준에서 채택하였다. 최적의 신뢰도를 결정하기 위하여 오목함수 범위에서 황금비 조사 기법을 썼으며, 신뢰도별 최대 수력 에너지를 얻기 위해 증분 동적계획 기법으로 저수지 조작을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 적용대상으로 대청 다목적댐 및 수력발전소를 택하여 손실계수, 최적 신뢰도 및 계약 발전량을 구하였다.

In this paper, irregularly designed planar reinforced concrete wall structures are investigated computationally. For this purpose, structures consisting of four regular and irregular models of short-order (two-class) and intermediate (five-class) types have been investigated. The probabilistic evaluation of seismic damage of these structures has been performed by using the incremental inelastic dynamic analysis to produce the seismic fragility curve at different levels of damage. The fragility curves are based on two classes of maximum damage indices and the Jeong-Nansha three-dimensional damage index. It was found that there is a significant increase in damage probability in irregular structures compared to regular ones. The rate of increase was higher in moderate and extensive damage levels. Also, the amount of damage calculated using the two damage indices shows that the Jeong-Nensha three-dimensional damage index in these types of structures provides superior results.

With ongoing development of earthquake engineering research and the lessons learnt from a series of strong earthquakes, the seismic design concept of "resilience" has received much attention. Resilience describes the capability of a structure or a city to recover rapidly after earthquakes or other disasters. As one of the main features of urban constructions, tall buildings have greater impact on the sustainability and resilience of major cities. Therefore, it is important and timely to quantify their seismic resilience. In this work, a quantitative comparison of the seismic resilience of two tall buildings designed according to the Chinese and US seismic design codes was conducted. The prototype building, originally designed according to the US code as part of the Tall Building Initiative (TBI) Project, was redesigned in this work according to the Chinese codes under the same design conditions. Two refined nonlinear finite element (FE) models were established for both cases and their seismic responses were evaluated at different earthquake intensities, including the service level earthquake (SLE), the design-based earthquake (DBE) and the maximum considered earthquake (MCE). In addition, the collapse fragility functions of these two building models were established through incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). Based on the numerical results, the seismic resilience of both models was quantified and compared using the new-generation seismic performance assessment method proposed by FEMA P-58. The outcomes of this study indicate that the seismic resilience of the building according to the Chinese design is slightly better than that according to the US design. The conclusions drawn from this research are expected to guide further in-depth studies on improving the seismic resilience of tall buildings.

The quantitative assessment of the seismic collapse risk of a structure requires the usage of an optimal intensity measure (IM) which can adequately characterise the severity of the ground motion. Research suggests that the average spectral acceleration ($Sa_{avg}$) may be an efficient and sufficient alternate IM as compared to the more traditional first mode spectral acceleration, $Sa(T_1)$, particularly during seismic collapse risk estimation. This study primarily presents a comparative evaluation of the sufficiency of the average spectral acceleration with respect to ground motion duration, and secondarily assesses the impact of ground motion duration on collapse risk estimation. By assembling a suite of 100 historical ground motions, incremental dynamic analysis of 60 different inelastic single-degree-of-freedom (SDF) oscillators with varying periods and ductility capacities were analysed, and collapse risk estimates obtained. Linear regression models are used to comparatively quantify the sufficiency of $Sa_{avg}$ and $Sa(T_1)$ using four significant duration metrics. Results suggests that an improved sufficiency may exist for $Sa_{avg}$ when the period of the SDF system increases, particularly beyond 0.5, as compare to $Sa(T_1)$. In reference to the ground motion duration measures, results indicated that the sufficiency of $Sa_{avg}$ is more sensitive to significant duration definitions that consider almost the full wave train of an accelerogram ($SD_{a5-95}$ and $SD_{v5-95}$). In order to obtain a reduced variability of the collapse risk estimate, the 5-95% significant duration metric defined using the Arias integral ($SD_{a5-95}$) should be used for seismic collapse risk estimation in conjunction with $Sa_{avg}$.

This paper presents the development of seismic fragility curves for a precast reinforced concrete bridge instrumented with a structural health monitoring (SHM) system. The bridge is located near an active seismic fault in the Dominican Republic (DR) and provides the only access to several local communities in the aftermath of a potential damaging earthquake; moreover, the sample bridge was designed with outdated building codes and uses structural detailing not adequate for structures in seismic regions. The bridge was instrumented with an SHM system to extract information about its state of structural integrity and estimate its seismic performance. The data obtained from the SHM system is integrated with structural models to develop a set of fragility curves to be used as a quantitative measure of the expected damage; the fragility curves provide an estimate of the probability that the structure will exceed different damage limit states as a function of an earthquake intensity measure. To obtain the fragility curves a digital twin of the bridge is developed combining a computational finite element model and the information extracted from the SHM system. The digital twin is used as a response prediction tool that minimizes modeling uncertainty, significantly improving the predicting capability of the model and the accuracy of the fragility curves. The digital twin was used to perform a nonlinear incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) with selected ground motions that are consistent with the seismic fault and site characteristics. The fragility curves show that for the maximum expected acceleration (with a 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years) the structure has a 62% probability of undergoing extensive damage. This is the first study presenting fragility curves for civil infrastructure in the DR and the proposed methodology can be extended to other structures to support disaster mitigation and post-disaster decision-making strategies.

반복하중이나 동적하중에 대한 지반의 소성모델은 지반구조물의 비선형 수치해석에 매우 중요하다. 단일 항복면 모델은 반복하중에 대해 선형적 거동을 보이는 반면, 개발된 탄성영역이 없는 J₂-경계면 소성모델은 동일한 물성치로 효과적으로 지반의 비선형성을 모사할 수 있다. 경계면 내부 항복면의 반경을 0으로 수렴시켜 탄성영역이 사라지도록 수식화하고, 소성경화 계수과 팽창률을 이용하여 소성변형 증분을 정의하였다. 개발된 모델의 응력-변형률 증분식을 제시하고, 쌍곡선 모델에 대한 소성경화 계수를 유도하였다. 삼축압축조건과 얕은기초의 반복하중에 대한 비교해석은 개발된 모델의 안정적인 수렴성, 이론식과의 일치성, 그리고 이력경로을 보여 주었다. 또한, 수정된 쌍곡선함수에 대한 소성경화 계수를 제시하여, 1차원 등가선형모델에 부합하는 모델변수 산정법을 제안하여 지반의 다차원 거동을 모델링할 수 있도록 하였다.

Piloti-type structures with vertical irregularity are vulnerable to earthquakes due to the soft structure of the first story. Structural characteristics of buildings can significantly affect the seismic loss function, calculated based on seismic fragility, and therefore need to be considered. This study investigated the effects of the number of stories and core locations on the seismic loss function of piloti-type buildings in Korea. Twelve analytical models were developed considering two variations: three stories (4-story, 5-story, and 6-story) and four core locations (center core, x-eccentric core, y-eccentric core, and xy-eccentric core). The interstory drift ratio and peak floor acceleration were assessed through incremental dynamic analysis using 44 earthquake records, and seismic fragility was derived. Seismic loss functions were calculated and compared using the derived seismic fragility and repair cost ratio of each component. The results indicate that the seismic loss function increases with more stories and when the core is eccentrically located in the piloti-type structure model. Therefore, the uncertainty due to the number of stories and core location should be considered when deriving the seismic loss function of piloti-type structures.

본 연구에서는 역량스펙트럼법을 이용해 얻어진 구조물의 성능점을 확률적으로 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다. ATC-40에 따라 역량스펙트럼법을 이용하여 4층 1경간 철골구조물의 성능점을 산정하였다. 요구스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 성능한계를 초과하는지 여부를 분석하기 위해 구조부재의 소성변형각으로부터 정의되는 구조물의 성능한계에 대해 한계변위를 도출하였다. 또한 설계응답스펙트럼과 유사한 응답스펙트럼을 가지는 인공지진파 30개를 선정하여 스펙트럼 가속도에 따른 각 성능한계의 초과여부를 통해 fragility curve를 도출하였다. 관측된 초과확률을 이용하여 fragility curve를 도출하기 위해 maximum likelihood method를 사용하였다. 각 성능한계점에 대응하는 설계응답스펙트럼의 응답가속도값에서 성능한계점을 초과할 확률은 존재하는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 방식은 구조물의 성능점에 대해 지진파의 불확실성을 고려한 확률적 평가가 가능하고, 시간증분해석이 필요하지 않아 해석시간을 상당부분 단축시킬 수 있다는 장점이 있다.
