가거초 해양과학기지 자켓 구조물 내 콘크리트를 배제하고 강재로만 이루어진 최적설계를 제시한다. 50년 재현주기 극한하중조건에서 허용응력 및 허용응력비 조건을 모두 만족하는 안전한 경량 설계를 목표하였다. 역할에 따라 부재를 세 그룹으로 나눈 설계 조건 (Case-1)과 보다 세분화한 설계 조건(Case-2)에 대해 각 부재그룹별 현재 단면 두께 대비 두께 변화율을 설계변수로 설정한 유전 알고 리즘을 통해 최적설계를 탐색하였다. 그 결과 Case-1의 결과로 현재 가거초 해양과학기지보다 약 217톤 더 가벼운 설계(OPT-1)를 찾았고, Case-2에서는 추가적으로 약 84톤을 경량화하여 현재 대비 약 45%의 무게를 절감한 설계(OPT-2)를 얻을 수 있었다. 결론적으로 레그 내 콘크리트 보강 없이도 극한조건에서 허용응력 및 허용응력비를 모두 만족시킬 수 있는 경량화된 가거초 해양과학기지 설계를 제시하였다.

Offshore jacket structures generally comprise steel members, and the safety standard for jacket structures typically focuses on the steel components. However, large amounts of concrete grouting is filled in the legs of the Gageocho jacket structure to aid in the recovery from typhoon damage. This paper proposes a safe and lightweight design for the Gageocho ocean research station comprising steel members instead of large amounts of concrete reinforcement in the legs. Based on the actual design, the structural members are grouped according to their functional roles, and the inner diameter of the cross-section in each design group is defined as a design variable. Structural optimization is carried out using a genetic algorithm to minimize the total weight of the structure. To satisfy the conservative safety standards in the offshore field, both the maximum stress and the unity check criteria are considered as design constraints during optimization. For enhanced safety confidence, extreme environmental conditions are assumed. The maximum marine attachment thickness and the section erosion in the splash zone are applied. Additionally, the design load is defined as the force induced by extreme waves, winds, and currents aligned in the same direction. All the loading directions surrounding the structure are considered to design the structure in a balanced and safe manner. As a result, compared with the current structure, the proposed structure features a 45% lighter design, satisfying the strict offshore safety criteria.
