Post-earthquake risk assessment technique in Korea is developed in 2013 by National Disaster Management Research Institute, at the same time, related manual and standard regulation is distributed to every local government by National Emergency Management Agency. The objectives of this research are to investigate and evaluate the post-earthquake risk assessment of 9.12 Earthquake (M5.8, Gyeongju City, 2016) and 11.15 Earthquake (M5.4, Pohang City, 2017). To suggest and improve the assessment process of post-earthquake risk, first post-earthquake risk assessment method of advanced foreign countries including US, New Zealand and Japan are compared, and post-earthquake evaluation activities in 9.12 Earthquake and 11.15 Earthquake are analyzed. From the results, it is needed to expand the adapted building and structure types and strengthen the earthquake disaster response capacity of local government.

Korean society experienced successive earthquakes exceeding 5.0 magnitude in the past three years resulting in an increasing concern about earthquake stability of urban infrastructures. This study focuses on the significant aspects of earthquake risk assessment for the cut-and-cover underground railway station based on two-dimensional dynamic numerical analysis. Presented are features from a case study performed for the railway station in Seoul, South Korea. The PLAXIS2D was employed for numerical simulation and input of the earthquake ground motion was chosen from Pohang earthquake records (M5.4). The paper shows key aspects of earthquake risk for soil-structure system varying important parameters including embedded depth, supported ground information, and applied seismicity level, and then draws several meaningful conclusions from the analysis results such as seismic risk assessment.

본 논문에서는 도시지역 내 건축물의 지진 안전도를 평가하기 위하여 건축 구조학적인 자료조사와 실험결과를 데이터베이스화하고 여기에 GIS를 연계하여 지진의 위험도를 체계적으로 관리하고 분석할 수 있는 지진재해관리용 정보체계구축의 가능성을 제시하였다. 내진성능 평가를 위하여 건축물 대장과 건축도면, 수치지형도 등을 활용하여 건물의 구조, 주요 구조부재 등 지진내진평가 항목별로 자료를 수집 정리한 후 현장조사를 통해 자료를 보완하였으며, 내진 성능평가를 실시하고 종합평가지수를 산정한 후 지진 위험도를 평가함으로서 지진재해를 효과적으로 대처하고 관리할 수 있는 GIS 기반 정보체계를 구축하였다. 향 후 건물별 지진 위험도를 평가하는 절차와 방법을 모듈화 할 경우 보다 신속하고 정확한 지진재해정보관리체계를 구축할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Despite recent advances in multi-hazard analysis, the complexity and inherent nature of such problems make quantification of the landslide effect in a probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) of NPPs challenging. Therefore, in this paper, a practical approach was presented for performing an earthquake-induced landslide PSA for NPPs subject to seismic hazard. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, it was applied to Korean typical NPP in Korea as a numerical example. The assessment result revealed the quantitative probabilistic effects of peripheral slope failure and subsequent run-out effect on the risk of core damage frequency (CDF) of a NPP during the earthquake event. Parametric studies were conducted to demonstrate how parameters for slope, and physical relation between the slope and NPP, changed the CDF risk of the NPP. Finally, based on these results, the effective strategies were suggested to mitigate the CDF risk to the NPP resulting from the vulnerabilities inherent in adjacent slopes. The proposed approach can be expected to provide an effective framework for performing the earthquake-induced landslide PSA and decision support to increase NPP safety.

Seismic risk management has two main technical aspects: to recommend the construction of high-performance buildings and other structures using earthquake-resistant designs or evaluate existing ones, and to prepare emergency plans using realistic seismic scenarios. An overview of seismic risk assessment methodologies in Croatia is provided with details regarding the components of the assessment procedures: hazard, vulnerability and exposure. For Croatia, hazard is presented with two maps and it is expressed in terms of the peak horizontal ground acceleration during an earthquake, with the return period of 95 or 475 years. A standard building typology catalogue for Croatia has not been prepared yet, but a database for the fourth largest city in Croatia is currently in its initial stage. Two methods for earthquake vulnerability assessment are applied and compared. The first is a relatively simple and fast analysis of potential seismic vulnerability proposed by Croatian researchers using damage index (DI) as a numerical value indicating the level of structural damage, while the second is the Macroseismic method.

North Anatolian Fault Zone is tectonically active with recent earthquakes (Mw7.6 1999-Kocaeli and Mw7.2 1999-Düzce earthquakes) and it passes through Marmara region, which is highly industrialized, densely populated and economically important part of Turkey. Many power plants, located in Marmara region, are exposed to high seismic hazard. In this study, open source OpenQuake software has been used for the probabilistic earthquake hazard analysis of Marmara region and risk assessment for the specified energy facility. The SHARE project seismic zonation model has been used in the analysis with the regional sources, NGA GMPEs and site model logic trees. The earthquake hazard results have been compared with the former and existing earthquake resistant design regulations in Turkey, TSC 2007 and TBSCD 2018. In the scope of the study, the seismic hazard assessment for a typical natural gas combined cycle power plant located in Marmara region has been achieved. The seismic risk assessment has been accomplished for a typical control building located in the power plant using obtained seismic hazard results. The structural and non-structural fragility functions and a consequence model have been used in the seismic risk assessment. Based on the seismic hazard level with a 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years, considered for especially these type of critical structures, the ratios of structural and non-structural loss to the total building cost were obtained as 8.8% and 45.7%, respectively. The results of the study enable the practical seismic risk assessment of the critical facility located on different regions.

Accidents occurring due to natural disasters in chemical process facilities where technologies are concentrated can cause secondary damage. The concept of the relationship between natural disasters and highly intensive technologies has evolved into the Natech (Natural Hazards Triggered Technological Disaster) research. Currently, the number of earthquakes is increasing all over the Korean peninsula. To assess the risk of Natech when an earthquake has occurred in South Korea, the Rapid Natech Risk Assessment Tool (RAPID-N) developed by the European Commission's Joint Research Center (EC JRC) was used in the present study. The RAPID-N can be used for Natech risk assessment based on mapping and can be utilized for sufficient preparation for reduction of the effects of Natech accidents. A total of 261 chemical facilities actually existing in Pohang were initially analyzed to select eight facilities and the Pohang earthquake that occurred in 2017 was implemented in the RAPID-N utilizing the shake map. High risk areas were selected through Natech risk assessments for the selected eight work places and countermeasures for the areas were suggested. High risk areas exist depending on the location, since the damage influence ranges could be overlapped and each chemical facility has an independent probability of Natech. Therefore, studies on Natech emergency plans and emergency evacuation routes should be actively conducted considering such high risk areas. The present study was conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of Natech risk assessment in South Korea through the RAPID-N. These findings can be used as a reference material to lay a foundation for Natech risk assessment and related policies in South Korea.

본 연구에서는 안정성과 위험도 평가의 중요성이 증대되고 있는 DCM(Deep Cement Mixing, 이하 DCM) 보강 지반상의 항만 구조물에 대하여 위험도 평가를 위한 파괴확률을 산정하였다. DCM 개량 지반의 위험도에 영향을 미치는 확률변수로 개량체의 설계기준강도와 시공중첩, 원지반의 강도 및 내부마찰각, 개량지반의 단위중량을 선정하고 관련 통계치를 산정하여 적용하였다. 또한, 상시 조건과 지진시 조건에서의 전체 시스템에 대한 파괴확률을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 통해 DCM 개량지반의 위험도 평가를 위한 확률변수에서 변동계수가 가장 큰 것은 설계기준강도이나 안전율의 변동성 즉, 시스템의 위험도에는 큰 영향을 미치지는 않는 것을 알 수 있었다. DCM 보강 지반에 대한 시스템의 파괴확률 영향인자 즉, 주된 위험요소는 상시 및 지진시 모두 외적안정의 경우 수평활동, 내적안정의 경우 압축파괴인 것으로 평가되었다. 또한, 수평활동에 대해서는 상시 파괴확률이 지진시 파괴확률보다 높고 압축파괴에 대해서는 상시 파괴확률이 지진시 파괴확률보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 전체 시스템의 상시 파괴확률과 지진시 파괴확률은 유사하지만, 본 사례의 경우 지진시 위험도가 다소 높은 것으로 나타났다.
