하천의 생태 환경적인 측면을 고려하여 여러 가지 친환경적인 호안공법이 적용되어 시공되는 사례가 증가하고 있다. 친환경적인 호안공법으로는 식생공이 대표적이나 중량물을 시공하는 호안공법과 달리 식생매트를 고정핀으로 고정하는 방식의 식생매트와 같은 호안공법의 경우 중량물을 설계하는 여타의 공법과 달리 적합한 설계방법이 없어 경험적인 방법을 통해서 제 품의 개발과 시공이 이루어지고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 식생매트공법에 사용되는 고정핀과 고정핀이 정착된 지반을 모델링하고 유한요소법을 활용하여 호안식생매트의 안전성을 평가하였다. 해석결과 핀의 상단 부분에서 인발에 저항하기 위해 인장응력이 유발되고 있으며, 헤드 부분은 거의 응력이 작용하지 않는 것으로 나타났고, 핀의 Von Mises 응력값이 인장강 도에 비해 낮게 나타나 파괴모드가 재료 자체의 항복 또는 파쇄에 의한 파괴가 아닌 핀과 지반사이의 뽑힘이 전체 거동을 지배 한다고 평가하였다. 본 연구는 유한요소법을 통해서 식생매트공법의 안전성을 변위와 발생응력에 대하여 평가하였다.

There has been considerable recent interest in deep learning techniques for structural analysis and design. However, despite newer algorithms and more precise methods have been developed in the field of computer science, the recent effective deep learning techniques have not been applied to the damage detection topics. In this study, we have explored the structural damage detection method of truss structures using the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques. The deep neural networks are used to train knowledge of the patterns in the response of the undamaged and the damaged structures. A 31-bar planar truss are considered to show the capabilities of the deep learning techniques for identifying the single or multiple-structural damage. The frequency responses and the elasticity moduli of individual elements are used as input and output datasets, respectively. In all considered cases, the neural network can assess damage conditions with very good accuracy.

In order to increase the seismic safety of nuclear power plant (NPP) structures, a technique to reduce the seismic load transmitted to the NPP structure by using a seismic isolation device such as a lead-rubber bearing has recently been actively researched. In seismic design of NPP structures, three directional (two horizontal and one vertical directions) artificial synthetic earthquakes (G0 group) corresponding to the standard design spectrum are generally used. In this study, seismic analysis was performed by using three directional artificial synthetic earthquakes (M0 group) corresponding to the maximum-minimum spectrum reflecting uncertainty of incident direction of earthquake load. The design basis earthquake (DBE) and the beyond design basis earthquakes (BDBEs are equal to 150%, 167%, and 200% DBE) of G0 and M0 earthquake groups were respectively generated for 30 sets and used for the seismic analysis. The purpose of this study is to compare seismic responses and seismic fragility curves of seismically isolated NPP structures subjected to DBE and BDBE. From the seismic fragility curves, the probability of failure of the seismic isolation system when the peak ground acceleration (PGA) is 0.5 g is about 5% for the M0 earthquake group and about 3% for the G0 earthquake group.

In the precedent study, the retractable-roof spatial structure was selected as the analytical model and a tuned mass damper (TMD) was installed to control the dynamic response for the earthquake loads. Also, it is analyzed that the installation location of TMD in the analytical model and the optimal number of installations. A single TMD mass installed in the analytical model was set up 1% of the mass of the whole structure, and the optimum installation location was derived according to the number of change. As a result, it was verified that most effective to install eight TMDs regardless of opening or closing. Thus, in this study, eight TMDs were installed in the retractable-roof spatial structure and the optimum mass ratio was inquired while reducing a single TMD. In addition, the optimum mass distribution ratio was identified by redistributing the TMD masses differently depending on the installation position, using the mass ratio of vibration control being the most effective for seismic load. From the analysis results, as it is possible to confirm the optimum mass distribution ratio according to the optimum mass ratio and installation location of the TMD in the the retractable-roof spatial structure, it can be used as a reference in the TMD design for large space structure.

공력감쇠는 와류에 의한 풍직각방향의 응답을 평가하는데 매우 유용한 인자로 인식되어 왔다. 그러나 기존의 공력감쇠 산정 방식은 구조물 응답에 기반한 시스템 식별기술을 적용하는 것으로 와류하중속에 포함되어 있는 공력감쇠의 역할과 특성을 파악하는 데 한계를 가지고 있었다. 본 연구에서는 하중식별기술을 적용하여 와류하중을 직접적으로 구함으로써 와류하중을 구성하는 요소와 유발요인을 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 대기 경계층에서 원형 실린더 모델에 대한 공탄성 실험을 수행하여 풍직각방향 와류하중 을 추정하였으며 그로부터 공력감쇠의 특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 와류하중은 구조물 모달속도가 공력감쇠에 의해 풍하중으로 전 환되는 모달속도하중과 변동풍속에 의해 형성되는 순수 와류하중으로 구성되는 것으로 나타났다. 공력감쇠는 최상층 평균풍속에 의한 와류방출진동수가 구조물의 고유진동수에 근접하면서 부감쇠를 가지며 그 결과 총 감쇠가 작아져 응답증폭현상을 유발하는 것으로 파악되었다. 본 연구결과에 기초하면, 난류상태에서 와류하중 특성이 반영된 와류하중모델 구축이 가능할 것으로 사료되며, 구조물 풍직 각방향 진동을 보다 효과적으로 파악하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

이 연구는 사구 고정 구조물의 종류에 따라서 모래 퇴적속도, 형태, 퇴적량을 분석하여 해안복원 기초자료로 제공하기 위하여 수행되었다. 연구 대상지는 경상북도 포항시 북구 해안림이 조성된 해변 지역을 선정하였다. 계단식 옹벽과 퇴사울타리 설치 후 3년간(2014-2016) 모래퇴적을 모니터링하여 비교 분석하였다. 각 구조물의 모래퇴적을 분석한 결과, 평균 모래퇴적 높이는 계단식 옹벽이 퇴사울타리 보다 약 1.3배 더 퇴적되었다. 구조물의 풍속저감 효과는 0.5m 높이에서 계단식 옹벽이 43.3%, 퇴사울타리 32.2%로 나타났다. 이 연구의 결과는 앞으로 해안사구 조성 및 해안림 기반 조성의 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

The damage detection method using the extended Kalman filter(EKF) technique has been continuously used since EKF can estimation the responses of the damaged building structure and the stiffness of the structure. However, in the use of EKF, the requirement of setting the initial paramters P, Q, and R has caused the divergence and instability of the state vector, and various researches have been conducted to determine theses parameters. In this paper, adaptive extended Kalman filter(AEKF) method is proposed to solve the problem of setting the values of P, Q, and R, which are important parameters determining the convergence performance of the EKF state vector. By using the AEKF method proposed in this study, the P, Q, and R parameters are updated every k steps. The proposed algorithm is applied for the estimation of stiffness and the damage detection of 3-DOF problem. Based of the verification, it can be found that the selection process for the values of P, Q, and R can improve the convergence performance of EKF.

In this study, the seismic performance and behavior characteristics of the upper truss structure of the large stadium are analyzed by nonlinear dynamic analysis. In the nonlinear dynamic analysis, the earthquake records were generated by site response analysis to simulate the nonlinear behavior of the relevant soil condition where the structure is located. Nonlinear dynamic analysis was performed using Perform-3D and the nonlinear properties of the substructure and the superstructure were determined in accordance with KISTEC guideline. According to the analysis results, excessive deformation occurred in the upper truss element, and plastic hinges exceeded the target performance in some members. Buckling-restrained brace is used for seismic retrofit of stadium structures and the analysis results shows the interstory drift satisfies the target performance level with dissipating the seismic energy efficiently.
