The Pohang earthquake with a magnitude of 5.4 occurred on November 15, 2018. The epicenter of this earthquake located in south-east region of the Korean peninsula. Since instrumental recording for earthquake ground motions started in Korea, this earthquake caused the largest economic and life losses among past earthquakes. Korea is located in low-to moderate seismic region, so that strong motion records are very limited. Therefore, ground motions recorded during the Pohang earthquake could have valuable geological and seismological information, which are important inputs for seismic design. In this study, ground motions associated by the 2018 Pohang earthquake are generated using the point source model considering domestic geological parameters (magnitude, hypocentral distance, distance-frequency dependent decay parameter, stress drop) and site amplification calculated from ground motion data at each stations. A contour map for peak ground acceleration is constructed for ground motions generated by the Pohang earthquake using the proposed model.

This paper focuses on the stochastic response analysis of industrial masonry chimneys to surface blast-induced random ground motions by using a three dimensional finite element model. Underground blasts induce ground shocks on nearby structures. Depending on the distance between the explosion centre and the structure, masonry structures will be subjected to ground motions due to the surface explosions. Blast-induced random ground motions can be defined in terms of the power spectral density function and applied to each support point of the 3D finite element model of the industrial masonry system. In this paper, mainly a parametric study is conducted to estimate the effect of the blast-induced ground motions on the stochastic response of a chimney type masonry structure. With this purpose, different values of charge weight and distance from the charge centre are considered for the analyses of the chimney. The results of the study underline the remarkable effect of the surface blast-induced ground motions on the stochastic behaviour of industrial masonry type chimneys.

If the load of constructing vehicles during the construction work acts on the road or the ground surface on the soft ground, due to the excess stresses in soils the trafficability of the vehicles influences the constructing efficiency, constructing period and so on. Stress distribution in soils is the very important element to design and to solve the problems of settlement, safety of foundations and trafficability of constructing vehicle in civil engineering. This research represents the comparative estimation of the actual and theoretical measurement on the underground stress of outer layer for each soil after the observation of each top soil layer for its vertical and horizontal stress in (1)homogeneous sand ground (2) weak stratum with the sand soil (3) weak stratum with gravel of the soil model, and it also investigates the effect of subsidence of ground by the repeated load. The underground stress turn out to be different in the value of theoretical and actual measurement after the trial examination of model.

In this study, solution models are proposed to obtain code-compatible ground motion record sets which can be used for both uni-directional and bi-directional dynamic analyses. Besides scaled, unscaled ground motion record sets are obtained to show the utility and efficiency of the solution models. For scaled ground motion sets the proposed model is based on hybrid HS-Solver which integrates heuristic harmony search (HS) algorithm with the spreadsheet Solver add-in. For unscaled ground motion sets HS based solution model is proposed. Design spectra defined in Eurocode-8 for different soil types are selected as target spectra. The European Strong Motion Database is used to get ground motion record sets. Also, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to evaluate the effect of different HS solution parameters on the solution accuracy. Results show that the proposed solution models can be regarded as efficient ways to develop scaled and unscaled ground motion sets compatible with code-based design spectra.

기존터널에 근접 굴착 할 때 발생하는 흙막이벽체의 수평변위를 억제시키기 위해 버팀대에 선행하중을 가했다. 이러한 목적으로 흙막이벽체에 큰 선행하중을 가할 수 있는 새로운 선행하중 시스템을 모형시험에 적용하였다. 대형 시험은 폭 2.0m, 높이 6.0m, 길이 4.0m인 모형 토조에서 수행하였고 시험지반은 모래로 조성하였다. 직경 1.2m인 모형 터널은 시험지반 굴착 전에 설치하고 지반을 조성한 후에 모형터널에 근접해서 흙막이벽체를 설치하고 시험지반을 굴착하면서 모형 터널과 흙막이벽체 및 지반의 거동을 측정하였다. 이때에 선행하중 재하효과를 확인하기 위하여 선행하중을 가하지 않는 시험은 물론 선행하중을 가하여 흙막이벽체의 수평변위를 억제하는 시험을 실시하였고 수치해석을 실시하여 대형 시험결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과 선행하중을 설계축력 이상으로 적용시켜 흙막이벽체의 수평변위를 감소시켰을 때 벽체 배면에 있는 기존 터널의 안정성이 크게 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study evaluated Campylobacter jejuni risk in ground meat products. The C. jejuni prevalence in ground meat products was investigated. To develop the predictive model, survival data of C. jejuni were collected at $4^{\circ}C-30^{\circ}C$ during storage, and the data were fitted using the Weibull model. In addition, the storage temperature and time of ground meat products were investigated during distribution. The consumption amount and frequency of ground meat products were investigated by interviewing 1,500 adults. The prevalence, temperature, time, and consumption data were analyzed by @RISK to generate probabilistic distributions. In 224 samples of ground meat products, there were no C. jejuni-contaminated samples. A scenario with a series of probabilistic distributions, a predictive model and a dose-response model was prepared to calculate the probability of illness, and it showed that the probability of foodborne illness caused by C. jejuni per person per day from ground meat products was $5.68{\times}10^{-10}$, which can be considered low risk.

The George Massey immersed tunnel passes the Fraser River near Vancouver, Western Canada. In this paper, dynamic analysis of the tunnel on sandy soils was performed using an effective stress constitutive model called UBCSAND. This model is able to calculate pore pressure rise and resulting tunnel deformation due to cyclic loading. Centrifuge tests conducted at RPI are used to verify the model performance. Centrifuge tests consist of 3 models: Model 1 is designed for an original ground condition, Model 2 for a ground improvement by compaction method, Model 3 for a ground improvement by gravel drainage. The results of centrifuge Model 1 are presented and compared with predictions of UBCSAND model. This model well captured the results of centrifuge test and therefore can be used to predict dynamic behavior of similar tunnels or underground structures on sandy soils.

지반과 터널라이닝의 상호작용을 고려한 GLI모델은 기존의 Terzaghi 이완하중과 골조모델을 이용한 방법에 비해 터널의 2차라이닝(콘크리트라이닝)에 작용하는 지반하중을 합리적으로 경감할 수 있음이 입증된 바 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존의 골조모델을 이용하여 설계된 OO선O공구의 콘크리트라이닝에 대해 GLI모델을 도입한 현장설계를 통해 경제성 및 시공성을 개선하였다. 다양한 안전측 고려사항에도 불구하고 철근량의 약 50%가 감소하여 철근자재비를 감소시킬 수 있었고 적정한 철근간격을 확보하여 콘크리트 밀실충전이 용이하였다. 지반조건이 불량한 터널일 수록 더 큰 철근량 절감효과가 있었으며, 이는 Terzaghi 이완하중이 불량한 지반에서 과도하게 산정되기 때문이다.

Multiple earthquakes that occur during short seismic intervals affect the inelastic behavior of the structures. Sequential ground motions against the single earthquake event cause the building structure to face loss in stiffness and its strength. Although, numerous research studies had been conducted in this research area but still significant limitations exist such as: 1) use of traditional design procedure which usually considers single seismic excitation; 2) selecting a seismic excitation data based on earthquake events occurred at another place and time. Therefore, it is important to study the effects of successive ground motions on the framed structures. The objective of this study is to overcome the aforementioned limitations through testing a two storey RC building structural model scaled down to 1/10 ratio through a similitude relation. The scaled model is examined using a shaking table. Thereafter, the experimental model results are validated with simulated results using ETABS software. The test framed specimen is subjected to sequential five artificial and four real-time earthquake motions. Dynamic response history analysis has been conducted to investigate the i) observed response and crack pattern; ii) maximum displacement; iii) residual displacement; iv) Interstorey drift ratio and damage limitation. The results of the study conclude that the low-rise building model has ability to resist successive artificial ground motion from its strength. Sequential artificial ground motions cause the framed structure to displace each storey twice in correlation with vary first artificial seismic vibration. The displacement parameters showed that real-time successive ground motions have a limited impact on the low-rise reinforced concrete model. The finding shows that traditional seismic design EC8 requires to reconsider the traditional design procedure.

제주도는 예상되는 물 부족분을 충당하기 위하여 대규모 지하수 개발을 계획하고 있다. 효율적인 지하수 자원의 관리를 위해서는 개발에 대한 영향평가가 선행되어야 하는데 제주도에서는 지역의 특성상 해수의 영향을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 가상의 지하수 개발에 대한 중-동제주 수역의 해수쐐기의반응을 해석하였다. 해석 방법으로는 담수와 해수의 동수역학을 동시에 고려하는 비확산 전산모형(sharp interface numerical model)을 이용하였다. 모델링에서 사용된 단계적 지하수 개발 일정은 제주도 광역상수도개발 계획과 동일한 비율과 시간 간격에 따라 설정되었다. 모델링 결과 해수쐐기(saltwater wedge)는 지역에 따라 1km이상 침투하는 것으로 예측되었다. 이러한 결과는 해수쐐기를 고정된 것으로 가정하여 담수의 흐름만을 고려한 모델링을 바탕으로 한 영향평가의 신뢰성에 의문을 가지게 한다.
