To give a solution for seismic stability of tunnel faces subjected to earthquake ground shakings, the pseudo-dynamic approach is originally introduced to analyze tunnel face stability in this study. In the light of the upper-bound theorem of limit analysis, an advanced three-dimensional mechanism combined with pseudo-dynamic approach is proposed. Based on this mechanism, the required support pressure on tunnel face can be obtained by equaling external work rates to the internal energy dissipation and implementing an optimization searching procedure related to time. Both time and space feature of seismic waves are properly accounted for in the proposed mechanism. For this reason, the proposed mechanism can better represent the actual influence of seismic motion and has a remarkable advantage in evaluating the effects of vertical seismic acceleration, soil amplification factor, seismic wave period and initial phase difference on tunnel face stability. Furthermore, the pseudo-dynamic approach is compared with the pseudo-static approach. The difference between them is illustrated from a new but understandable perspective. The comparison demonstrates that the pseudo-static approach is a conservative method but still could provide precise enough results as the pseudo-dynamic approach if the value of seismic wavelengths is large or the height of soil structures is small.

The dynamic behavior of a single pile was investigated by using analytical and numerical studies. The focus of this study was to develop the dynamic p-y curve of a pile for pseudo-static analysis considering the shear wave velocity of the soil by using three-dimensional numerical analyses. Numerical analyses were conducted for a single pile in dry sand under changing conditions such as the shear wave velocity of the soil and the acceleration amplitudes. The proposed dynamic p-y curve is a shape of hyperbolic function that was developed to take into account the influence of the shear wave velocity of soil. The applicability of pseudo-static analysis using the proposed dynamic p-y curve shows good agreement with the general trends observed by dynamic analysis. Therefore, the proposed dynamic p-y curve represents practical improvements for the seismic design of piles.

지하구조물의 해석 방법은 크게 해석적 또는 유사정적 해석방법과 동적해석 방법의 두 종류로 나눌 수 있다. 유사정적 해석방법은 자유지반변형을 구조물에 정적인 하중으로 적용하여 구조물의 변위를 구하는 방법으로 선형탄성해석에 기초를 두고 있다. 그러나 치진 발생시 지반과 구조물 사이의 상호작용은 비선형 거동을 하여 이를 고려한 해석이 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 유사정적 해석방법에 반복계산과정에 의하여 지반의 비선형성을 고려할 수 있는 간편해석방법을 소개하고, 이를 수치해석을 통한 동해석을 수행하여 비교 검증하였다.

본 연구는 한 경부 고속철도 터널의 NATM 굴착에 의한 2 arch 확공 굴착 시 발생되는 진동 및 응력의 변화가 터널 및 인근 사면에 미치는 영향을 사전에 파악하여 안정성을 검토하는 데에 그 목적이 있다. 지반물성치를 산정하기 위해 시추공 조사, TV검층 및 속도검층을 실시하였다. 2차원 해석을 통해 불확실한 지반의 물성을 변수로 간주하고 가능한 범위 내에서 해석을 수행함으로서 특정한 지반 물성이 입력 정수로서 결정되었다. 정적 및 발파 진동에 의한 준-정적(pseudo-static)안전율을 계산하였으며, 3차원 해석을 통해 터널굴착으로 인한 터널 및 터널 주변의 거동과 터널 지보재의 적정성 여부를 조사하였다.

국토의 70% 이상이 산지인 국내 지형 조건에서 도로, 철도 등 크고 작은 건설 공사에서는 필연적으로 사면이 형성된다. 그러나, 최근 국내외적으로 빈번히 발생하는 지진에 대한 사면안정 보강공법에 대한 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 1 g 진동대 실험 및 등가정적해석을 이용하여 사면의 내진 보강공법으로써 억지말뚝의 적용성을 평가하고, 억지말뚝이 적용된 사면 및 억지말뚝의 지진시 거동을 분석하였다. 1 g 진동대 실험 결과로부터, 억지말뚝 보강 사면의 지진시 사면파괴 억지효과를 검증하였으며, 등가정적해석을 통해 억지 말뚝을 사면 하부 또는 상부보다 사면 파괴면의 중앙부에 말뚝을 설치했을 때 사면파괴 억지효과가 가장 큼을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 말뚝이 사면 중앙부에 설치되었을 경우, 말뚝의 중심 간격에 따른 안전율 변화를 등가정적해석으로부터 분석하였다.

The reliable seismic stability evaluation of the natural slopes and geotechnical structures has become a critical factor of the design. Pseudo-static or permanent displacement methods are typically employed to evaluate the seismic slope performance. In both methods, the effect of input ground motion on the sliding surface is ignored, and failure surface from the limit equilibrium method is used. For the assessment of the seismic sensitivity of failure surface, two-dimensional non-linear finite element analyses are performed. The performance of the finite element model was validated against centrifuge measurements. A parametric study with a range of input ground motion was performed, and numerical results were used to assess the influence of ground motion characteristics on the sliding surface. Based on the results, it is demonstrated that the characteristics of input ground motion have a significant influence on the location of the seismically induce failure surface. In addition to dynamic analysis, pseudo-static analyses were performed to evaluate the discrepancy. It is observed that sliding surfaces developed from pseudo-static and dynamic analyses are different. The location of the failure surface change with the amplitude and T_m of motion. Therefore, it is recommended to determine failure surfaces from dynamic analysis

Seismic analysis methods in use on ground structure are equivalentstatic analysis, response-displacement method and dynamic analysis etc. Equivalentstatic analysis does not considerdynamic effect, and dynamic analysis process is very complex. then 'Urbanrail transit earthquake-resistance design standard (2005.06)' is persuading that analyze by response displacement method that consider enough dynamic effect of ground structure statically. But, It is very complex and difficult to apply response-displacement method in the field. So, modified equivalentstatic analysis or pseudo static analysis that is easy to apply in the field and have rationality of design is practically used. In this study, I try to prescribe the applicable scale of structure and static analysis that have calculative effectiveness about response-displacement method by comparing and analyzing the result of each analysis method according to the scale of urban rail transit' box type concrete structure and by performing seismic analysis that apply modified equivalentstatic analysis, pseudo static analysis and response-displacement method changing the kind of ground, depth of bedrock, size of structure.

Slope stability analysis of the right abutment of a railway bridge proposed at about 350 m above the ground level, crossing a river and connecting two huge hillocks in the Himalayas, India is presented in this paper. The site is located in a highly active seismic zone. The rock slopes are intensely jointed and the joint spacing and orientation are varying at different locations. Static slope stability of the rock slope is studied using equivalent continuum approach through the most commonly used commercial numerical tools like FLAC and SLOPE/W of GEOSTUDIO. The factor of safety for the slope under static conditions was 1.88 and it was reduced by 46% with the application of earthquake loads in pseudo-static analysis. The results obtained from the slope stability analyses confirmed the global stability of the slope. However, it is very likely that there could be possibility of wedge failures at some of the pier locations. This paper also presents the results from kinematics of right abutment slope for the wedge failure analysis based on stereographic projections. Based on the kinematics, it is recommended to flatten the slope from 50o to 43o to avoid wedge failures at all pier locations.

The equivalent static force procedure and the response spectrum analysis method are widely used for seismic analyses of multi-story buildings. The equivalent static force procedure is one of the most simple but less accurate method in predicting possible seismic response of a structure. The response spectrum analysis method provides more accurate results while it takes much longer computational time. In the response spectrum method, dynamic response of a multi-story building is obtained by combining modal responses through a proper procedure such as SRSS or CQC method. Since all of the analysis results are expressed in absolute values, structural engineers have difficulties to combine them with the results obtained from the static analysis. Design automation is interrupted at this stage because of the difficulty in the decision of the most critical design load. Pseudo-dynamic analysis method proposed in this study provides more accurate seismic analysis results than those of the equivalent static force procedure since the dynamic characteristics of a structure is considered. And the proposed method has an advantage in combination of the analysis results due to gravity loads and seismic loads since the direction of the forces can be considered.
