This study analyzed data on the pore water pressure, the ground water level, the horizontal displacement and the resistivity monitoring from instrument system, which is established to evaluate the safety in reservoirs. The pore water pressure in the embankment ranged from $0.035{\sim}1.116kg/cm^2$. The seepage that piping showed, as well as the leakage from the reservoirs are acceptable for the safety management of the reservoir. The maximum horizontal displacement and direction analyzed from the measured inclinometer data gives us very effective information to evaluate the safety in reservoirs. The resistivity monitoring technique, which is obtained on the reservoir crest, is an efficient tool to detect leakage zone. The safety index(SI) was predicted by the resistivity monitoring, and was evaluated to have a safety level of 0.8-1.0 at all reservoirs. Safety evaluations of reservoir through instrument systems are effective when studying the embankment, when the results of the instrument system have been analyzed compositively.

Recently, interest of offshore structure construction in South Korea is growing as the land space becomes limited for further development and the renewable energy grows to be more attractive for the replacement of the fossil energy. In order for the optimal construction of optimum offshore floating structures, development of safe and economical offshore foundation technologies is a priority. In this study, the large-deformation behavior of a suction pile, which markets are rapidly growing nowadays, is analyzed for three different loading locations (top, middle, and bottom of the suction pile) with three different displacement inclinations (displacement controlled with displacement inclinations of 0, 10, and 20 degrees from the horizontal). The behavior analysis includes quantifications of maximum resistances, translations, and rotation angles of the suction pile. The suction pile with its diameter of 10 m and height of 25 m is assumed to be embedded in clay, sand, and multi layers of subsea foundation. The soil properties of the clay, sand, and multi layers were determined based on the results of the site investigations performed in the West sea of South Korea. As analyses results, the maximum resistance was observed at the middle of the suction pile with the displacement inclination of 20 degrees, while the translations and rotations resulting from the horizontal and inclined pullouts were not significant until the horizontal components of movements at the loading points reach 1.0 m.

System supports are widely used in concrete construction due to the convenience and structural safety at the point of both installation and dismantling. However, there were frequent collapses in the construction sites due to the absence of both structural review and brace installations. Therefore, this paper examines the importance of braces in the system supports. In order to examine the importance of the brace, four types of braces were considered: 100% braces, 50% braces, 25% braces, and without braces. The maximum displacement of the 100% braced model was 0.97 mm, the 50% braced model was 1.13 mm, the 25% braced model was 1.16 mm and the non-braced model was 24.3 mm, respectively. Compared to the model with the without-braces, the model with 100% of the braces installed has a displacement of 4.0%, the model with 50% of the braces showed a displacement of 4.7%, and the model with 25% of the braces appeared to be a displacement of 4.8%. That is, the installation of the braces is effective in reducing the maximum displacement of the system supports and is effective in reducing the maximum displacement with only small number of braces installed.

본 연구는 국내 11 네일링 현장을 대상으로 경사계와 변형률계의 계측자료를 이용하여 쏘일네일링 벽체의 변위와 네일의 인장력을 고찰하였다. 연구결과 최대수평변위량은 시공과정이 양호한 현장의 경우와 불량한 경우 각각 굴착깊이(H)의 0.2%, 0.3%이하로 나타났으며, 벽체의 최대수평변위 발생위치는 지표면으로부터 굴착심도의 약 5~l5%이내의 벽체상단에서 발생하였다. 최종굴착깊이$(H_f)$와 네일의 길이(L)와의 길이비 R이 0.5이하, 0.5~0.6, 0.6~0.7인 경우 최대수평변위가 각각 굴착깊이(H)의 0.4%, 0.3%, 0.2%로 나타났다. 그러나 길이비 R이 0.7이상인 경우에는 최대수평변위가 굴착깊이의 약0.3%로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며 이러한 결과는 굴착깊이가 얕고, 토사층 부분이 많았기 때문으로 판단된다. 최대인장력을 무차원화한 K값은 지표면으로부터 최종굴착깊이$(H_f)$의 $0.6H_f$까지는 0.8이하로 나타났으며, $0.6H_f$에서부터 최종굴착면까지 선형적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 최종굴착완료시 네일의 최대 인장력$(T_{max)$이 네일의 항복인장력$(T_{\sigmay)$에 최대 60%까지 도달하는 것으로 나타났다.

2024년 1월 1일 일본 노토반도에서 모멘트 규모 7.5의 강진이 발생했다. 이 강진에 의해 노토반도에는 심각한 지표 변위가 발생하였다. 지표 변위 파악에는 global navigation satellite system (GNSS) 기지국에서 측정된 자료를 사용하나 기지국이 존재하지 않는 지역의 정보를 획득하기에는 한계점이 존재한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 급격하게 발생한 변위를 탐지할 수 있는 offset tracking을 이용하여 노토반도 전역의 수평 지표 변위를 파악하고자 한다. Offset tracking 기법을 이용하여 노토반도를 분석한 결과 진앙이 위치한 노토반도의 북동쪽 지역보다 북서쪽 지역에서 더 많은 수평 방향 지표 변위가 발생하였으며 지표 변위 값이 최대 2.9 m에 달하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 지상 GNSS 기지국을 통해 지표 변위 자료를 획득하지 못하는 지역의 지표 변위 값을 산출하는 데 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

In this study, the idea of damping force linearly proportional to horizontal isolation displacement is implemented into sloped rolling-type bearings in order to meet different seismic performance goals. In addition to experimentally demonstrating its practical feasibility, the previously developed analytical model is further modified to be capable of accurately predicting its hysteretic behavior. The numerical predictions by using the modified analytical model present a good match of the shaking table test results. Afterward, several sloped rolling-type bearings designed with linearly variable damping force are numerically compared with a bearing designed with conventional constant damping force. The initial friction damping force adopted in the former is designed to be smaller than the constant one adopted in the latter. The numerical comparison results indicate that when the horizontal isolation displacement does not exceed the designed turning point (or practically when subjected to minor or frequent earthquakes that seldom have a great displacement demand for seismic isolation), the linearly variable damping force design can exhibit a better acceleration control performance than the constant damping force design. In addition, the former, in general, advantages the re-centering performance over the latter. However, the maximum horizontal displacement response of the linearly variable damping force design, in general, is larger than that of the constant damping force design. It is particularly true when undergoing a horizontal isolation displacement response smaller than the designed turning point and designing a smaller value of initial friction damping force.

본 연구에서는 제방축조에 의해 연약점토지반에서 발생되는 지반의 변위 및 변형형태를 파악하기 위하여 제방높이, 지반의 비배수 전단강도, geotextile의 설치여부와 중력수준을 변화시키면서 원심모형시험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 제방하중에 의한 지반의 치환단면은 geotextile을 설치하지 않은 경우 포물선 형태를 나타내었고, geotextile을 설치한 경우에는 제방하부에서 균일한 침하단면을 나타내는 사다리꼴 형태를 나타내었다. 치환각도는 제방높이와 중력수준이 증가할수록 그리고 지반의 비배수 전단강도가 작을수록 거의 선형적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 최대 수평변위가 발생하는 위치는 지표면에서 점토층 깊이의 $0.24{\sim}0.35H_0$($H_0$ : 초기 모형지반의 높이) 지점으로 평균 0.3H0인 것으로 나타났으며, geotextile을 설치하지 않은 경우 지반의 최대침하량(S)과 최대 수평변위(${\delta}_m$)는 ${\delta}_m$ = 0.54S, geotextile을 설치한 경우에는 ${\delta}_m$ = 0.60S의 관계를 나타내었다.

By means of installing sloped rolling-type seismic isolators (SRI), the horizontal acceleration transmitted to the to-be-protected object above can be effectively and significantly reduced under external disturbance. To prevent the maximum horizontal displacement response of SRI from reaching a threshold, designing large and conservative damping force for SRI might be required, which will also enlarge the transmitted acceleration response. In a word, when adopting seismic isolation, minimizing acceleration or displacement responses is always a trade-off. Therefore, this paper proposes that by exploiting the possible information provided by an earthquake early warning system, the damping force applied to SRI which can better control both acceleration and displacement responses might be determined in advance and accordingly adjusted in a semi-active control manner. By using a large number of ground motion records with peak ground acceleration not less than 80 gal, the numerical results present that the maximum horizontal displacement response of SRI is highly correlated with and proportional to some important parameters of input excitations, the velocity pulse energy rate and peak velocity in particular. A control law employing the basic form of hyperbolic tangent function and two objective functions are considered in this study for conceptually developing suitable control algorithms. Compared with the numerical results of simply designing a constant, large damping factor to prevent SRI from pounding, adopting the recommended control algorithms can have more than 60% reduction of acceleration responses in average under the excitations. More importantly, it is effective in reducing acceleration responses under approximately 98% of the excitations.

The ancient underground cities are a collection of self-supporting spaces that have been manually excavated in the soil or rock in the past. Because these structures have a very high cultural value due to their age, the study of their stability under the influence of natural hazards, such as earthquakes, is very important. In this research, while introducing the underground city of Ouyi Nushabad located in the center of Iran as one of the largest man-made underground cities of the old world, the analysis of dynamic stability is performed. For this purpose, the dynamic stress-displacement analysis has been performed through numerical modeling using the finite element software PLAXIS. At this stage, by simulating the Khorgo earthquake as one of the large-scale earthquakes that occurred in Iran, with a magnitude of 6.9 on the Richter scale, dynamic analysis by time history method has been performed on three selected sections of underground spaces. This study shows that the maximum amount of horizontal and vertical dynamic displacement is 12.9 cm and 17.7 cm, respectively, which was obtained in section 2. The comparison of the results shows that by increasing the cross-sectional area of the excavation, especially the distance between the roof and the floor, in addition to increasing the amount of horizontal and vertical dynamic displacement, the obtained maximum acceleration is intensified compared to the mapping acceleration applied to the model floor. Therefore, preventive actions should be taken to stabilize the excavations in order to prevent damage caused by a possible earthquake.

In this study, quantitative sensitivity analysis on rockfill material influencing the dam crest displacement of Concrete-Faced Rockfill Dam(CFRD) was carried out. The purpose of this study is to indicate the most important input parameter and to show the quantitative variation of displacement at the crest of CFR type dam with this input parameter. The rockfill material properties for parametric study were obtained from the results of large scale triaxial tests on 34 rockfill materials in the 22 different sites. From the statistical analysis on these data, some statistical characteristics of rockfill material properties such as property range, distribution characteristics, and correlation between the properties were investigated. based on these characteristics, 27 property combinations were constituted by Latin Hypercube sampling method. Dam crest displacements after construction, impounding, and earthquake loading were evaluated by static and dynamic numerical analysis on each combination. From the sensitivity analysis, it was found that the crest displacement of CFR type dam was absolutely affected by the shear modulus of rockfill material and the effect of friction angle of it was negligible. This relative difference of sensitivity was more outstanding in case of crest settlement than in case of crest horizontal displacement. Also, it was found that the settlement and horizontal displacement of dam crest logarithmically decreased as the shear modulus increased and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum vale amounted to about 9.5 times in case of settlement and about 10 times in case of horizontal displacement.
