최근 발생한 오대산지진(2007년 1월 20일)으로부터 관측된 지반진동 파형을 이용하여 응답스펙트럼을 분석하였으며, 결과를 국내 원자력 관련 구조물의 내진설계 기준과 비교하였다. 연구에 이용된 지반진동 개수는 수평성분 및 수직성분 각각 21개 및 8개이다. 지반진동을 이용하여 주파수별 지반응답을 구하고 정규화 분석 및 통계적 분석을 하였다. 본 연구결과를 국내 원자력시설물의 내진기준에 해당하는 Reg. Guide 1.60과 비교한 결과 특히 약 10 Hz 이상의 고주파수 영역에서 수직 및 수평 성분 모두 MPOSD스펙트럼이 Reg. Guide 1.60보다 높은 값을 보여 주었다. 따라서 향후 국내 지진활동 실정에 적합한 내진설계를 위해 수직 및 수평 성분 모두 10Hz 이상의 고주파수 대역에서 응답스펙트럼 값을 심각하게 고려할 필요가 있다.

The present paper deals with the optimum performance of the passive hybrid control system for the benchmark highway bridge under the six earthquakes ground motion. The investigation is carried out on a simplified finite element model of the 91/5 highway overcrossing located in Southern California. A viscous fluid damper (known as VFD) or non-linear fluid viscous spring damper has been used as a passive supplement device associated with polynomial friction pendulum isolator (known as PFPI) to form a passive hybrid control system. A parametric study is considered to find out the optimum parameters of the PFPI system for the optimal response of the bridge. The effect of the velocity exponent of the VFD and non-linear FV spring damper on the response of the bridge is carried out by considering different values of velocity exponent. Further, the influences of damping coefficient and vibration period of the dampers are also examined on the response of the bridge. To study the effectiveness of the passive hybrid system on the response of the isolated bridge, it is compared with the corresponding PFPI isolated bridges. The investigation showed that passive supplement damper such as VFD or non-linear FV spring damper associated with PFPI system is significantly reducing the seismic response of the benchmark highway bridge. Further, it is also observed that non-linear FV spring damper hybrid system is a more promising strategy in reducing the response of the bridge compared to the VFD associated hybrid system.

지진하중에 의한 상부구조의 낙교는 최근 발생된 지진등에서 알수 있듯이 교각파되와 더불어 교량의 전체적인 붕괴를 유발하는 주요한 원인 것으로 나타났으며 또한 충돌현상은 이러한 낙교를 발생시키는 주된요인인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 충돌현상을 비롯한 교량의 교축방향거동에 영향을 미치는 인자 즉 교각의 비선형성 기초의회전 및 병진운동 교대의 작용 등을 고려하고 최근 낙교방지대책으로 널리 적용되고 있는 restrainer로 보강된 교량시스템의 거동을 해석할 수 있는 모형을 개발하였다 개발된 해석모형을 바탕으로 다양한 지진하중에 의한 교량시스템의 교축방향 거동특성과 restrainer의 보강효과를 분석하였으며 restrainer의 여유길이와 강성변화에 따른 인접 진동계간의 응답특성을 분석하였다 restrainer의 보강효과를 분석하였으며 restrainer의 여유길이와 강성변화에 따른 인접진동계간의 응답특성을 분석하였다. restrainer로 보강된 교량시스템의 충돌에 따른 응답특성을 살펴본 결과 응답의 크기뿐만아니라 응답의 이력자체가 상이한 거동특성을 나타내는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 restrainer의 보강에 따른 변위억제효과는 중진의 경우 restrainer의 여유길이 짧을수록 restrainer의 강성이 클수록 뛰어난 것으로 나타났으나 강진에서는 restrainer의 파단에 대한 대책을 함께 고려하여야 할 것으로 분석되었다.

지진파가 전달되면 진폭이 감쇠되는 정도를 나타내는 감쇠상수 $Q^{-1}$는 지구내부 물질의 물리적 성질을 나타내는 중요한 척도이며, 구조물의 내진설계에 있어서 지반의 강진동을 정량적으로 예측하기 위해 필수적이다. 경상북도 덕정리에 위치한 지진관측기기에 기록된 80지진과 76단일 관측망 기록자료를 바탕으로 한국남동부의 P, S 실체파 감쇠상수를 Coda확장규격화법에 의해 구하였다. 구하여진 $Q_P^{-1}$및 $Q_S^{-1}$는 각각 1.5Hz에서 $1{\times}10^{-2}$ 와 $9{\times}10^{-3}$, 24 Hz에서 $6{\times}10^{-4}$ 와 $5{\times}10^{-4}$로 줄어들고, $Q_P^{-1}=0.01\;f^{-1.07}$ 및 $Q_S^{-1}=0.01\;f^{-1.03}$의 강한 주파수 의존성을 보였다.

Recent studies integrating vibration control and structural health monitoring (SHM) use control devices and control algorithms to enable system identification and damage detection. In this study real-time SHM is used to enhance structural vibration control and reduce damage. A newly proposed control algorithm, including integrated real-time SHM and semi-active control strategy, is presented to mitigate both damage and seismic response of the main structure under strong seismic ground motion. The semi-active independently variable stiffness (SAIVS) device is used as semi-active control device in this investigation. The proper stiffness of SAIVS device is obtained using a new developed semi-active control algorithm based on real-time damage tracking of structure by damage detection algorithm based on identified system Markov parameters (DDA/ISMP) method. A three bay five story steel braced frame structure, which is equipped with one SAIVS device at each story, is employed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. The obtained results show that the proposed control algorithm could significantly decrease damage in most parts of the structure. Also, the dynamic response of the structure is effectively reduced by using the proposed control algorithm during four strong earthquakes. In comparison to passive on and off cases, the results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed control algorithm in decreasing both damage and dynamic responses of structure is significantly enhanced than the passive cases. Furthermore, from the energy consumption point of view the maximum and the cumulative control force in the proposed control algorithm is less than the passive-on case, considerably.

The use of superelastic shape memory alloys (SMAs) as reinforcements in concrete structures is gradually gaining interest among researchers. Because of different mechanical properties of SMAs compared to the regular steel bars, the use of SMAs as reinforcement in the concrete may change the response of structures under seismic loads. In this study, the effect of SMAs as reinforcement in concrete structures is analytically investigated for 3-, 6- and 8-story reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. For each concrete building, three different reinforcement details are considered: (1) steel reinforcement (Steel) only, (2) SMA bar used in the plastic hinge region of the beams and steel bar in other regions (Steel-SMA), and (3), beams fully reinforced with SMA bar (SMA) and steel bar in other regions. For each case, columns are reinforced with steel bar. Incremental Dynamic Analyses (IDA) are performed using ten different ground motion records to determine the seismic performance of Steel, Steel-SMA and SMA RC buildings. Then fragility curves for each type of RC building by using IDA results for IO, LS and CP performance levels are calculated. Results obtained from the analyses indicate that 3-story frames have approximately the same spectral acceleration corresponding with failure of frames, but in the cases of 6 and 8-story frames, the spectral acceleration is higher in frames equipped with steel reinforcements. Furthermore, the probability of fragility in all frames increases by the building height for all performance levels. Finally, economic evaluation of the three systems are compared.

Strong seismic events commonly cause large drift and deformation, and functionality failures in the superstructures. One way to prevent functionality failures is to design structures which are ductile and flexible through yielding when subjected to strong ground excitations. By developing forces that assist motion as "negative stiffness forces", yielding can be achieved. In this paper, we adopt the weakening and damping method to achieve a new approach to reduce all of the structural responses by further adjusting damping phase. A semi-active control system is adopted to perform the experiments. In this adaptation, negative stiffness forces through certain devices are used in weakening phase to reduce structural strength. Magneto-rheological (MR) dampers are then added to preserve stability of the structure. To adjust the voltage in MR dampers, an inverse model is employed in the control system to command MR dampers and generate the desired control forces, where a velocity control algorithm produces initial required control force. An extensive numerical study is conducted to evaluate proposed methodology by using the smart base-isolated benchmark building. Totally, nine control systems are examined to study proposed strategy. Based on the numerical results of seven earthquakes, the use of proposed strategy not only reduces base displacements, base accelerations and base shear but also leads to reduction of accelerations and inter story drifts of the superstructure. Numerical results shows that the usage of inverse model produces the desired regulated damping, thus improving the stability of the structure.

In the last decades, valuable results have been reported regarding conventional passive, active, semi-active, and hybrid structural control systems on two-dimensional and a few three-dimensional shear buildings. In this research, using a three-dimensional finite element model of high-rise concrete structures, designed by performance based plastic design method, it was attempted to construct a relatively close to reality model of concrete structures equipped with Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) by considering the effect of soil-structure interaction (SSI), torsion effect, hysteresis behavior and cracking effect of concrete. In contrast to previous studies which have focused mainly on linearly designed structures, in this study, using performance-based plastic design (PBPD) design approach, nonlinear behavior of the structures was considered from the beginning of the design stage. Inelastic time history analysis on a detailed model of twenty-story concrete structure was performed under a far-field ground motion record set. The seismic responses of the structure by considering SSI effect are studied by eight main objective functions that are related to the performance of the structure, containing: lateral displacement, acceleration, inter-story drift, plastic energy dissipation, shear force, number of plastic hinges, local plastic energy and rotation of plastic hinges. The tuning problem of TMD based on tuned mass spectra is set by considering five of the eight previously described functions. Results reveal that the structural damage distribution range is retracted and inter-story drift distribution in height of the structure is more uniform. It is strongly suggested to consider the effect of SSI in structural design and analysis.

건물의 실제 편심은 일반적으로 계산된 값과 상당히 다르며, 정형 건물도 비틀림의 영향을 받는다. 질량분포의 비대칭성과 수직축에 대한 지반의 회전요소와 같은 요인들의 영향을 고려하고, 비틀림 비정형 건물의 취약성을 줄이기 위하여 내진설계규준에서는 우발편심과 비틀림 증폭계수를 도입하였다. 본 연구에서는 정형건물의 다양한 형상비와 평면중심으로부터의 부재위치에 따른 비틀림 증폭계수의 영향 및 이 계수에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하였고 보통암 지반에 위치한 다양한 편심과 형상비를 갖는 비선형 철근콘크리트 단층모델을 이용하여 비틀림 증폭계수를 검증하였다. 비선형 정적해석과 시간이력해석을 이용하여 구한 연약단부의 최대 정적변위와 동적변위는 비교적 일치하였으나 최대 정적비틀림과 동적비틀림의 차이는 편심크기가 작을수록 크게 나타났다. 1차 설계편심에 비틀림 증폭계수 적용유.무에 따라 연약단부 부재의 밑면전단력 증가가 미비하여 최대 정적변위의 증가비가 크지 않다.

지진에 대한 사면안정 해석은 지진에 의한 관성력을 정적하중으로 고려하는 유사정적해석을 널리 사용하고 있다. 사면과 같은 지반 구조물은 지반정수의 불확실성이 포함되어 있어 확률론적 해석을 이용하여 지반정수의 불확실성을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 지반의 불확실성을 고려한 확률론적 사면안정해석을 수행하였으며, 구조물이 임의 수준의 지반 운동을 받을 때 파괴상태에 도달하는 확률을 그래프로 나타낸 취약도 곡선을 작성하였다. 유사정적해석으로 확률론적 사면안정해석을 수행하기 위해 Monte Carlo Simulation(MCS)을 시행하였다. MCS의 소요 시간을 단축하기 위하여 인공신경망 기반의 응답면 기법을 이용해 파괴확률을 산출하여 수평지진계수별 취약도 곡선을 작성하는 방법을 제시하였다. 인공신경망을 이용하여 작성한 취약도 곡선을 MCS의 결과와 비교해 본 결과 상당한 시간 절약에 비해 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
