The probabilistic seismic safety assessment is one of the methodology to evaluate the seismic safety of the nuclear power plants. The site characteristics of the nuclear power plant should be reflected when evaluating the seismic safety of the nuclear power plant. The Korea seismic characteristics are strong in high frequency region and may be different from NRC Regulatory Guide 1.60, which is the design spectrum of nuclear power plants. In this study, seismic response of a nuclear power plant structure by Pohang earthquake (2017.11.15. (KST)) is investigated. The Pohang earthquake measured at the Cheongsong seismic observation station (CHS) is scaled to the peak ground acceleration (PGA) of 0.2 g and the seismic acceleration time history curve corresponding to the design spectrum is created. A nuclear power plant of the containment building and the auxiliary buildings are modeled using OPENSEES to analyze the seismic response of the Pohang earthquake. The seismic behavior of the nuclear power plant due to the Pohang earthquake is investigated. And the seismic performances of the equipment of a nuclear power plant are evaluated by the HCLPF. As a result, the seismic safety evaluation of nuclear power plants should be evaluated based on site-specific characteristics of nuclear power plants.

본 논문에서는 페이즈필드 설계법 기반의 피로 제약 조건 구조물의 위상최적설계를 수행하였다. 페이즈필드 설계법의 도입으로 기존의 위상최적설계법에서 발생하기 쉬운 중간 영역의 크기를 크게 감소시켰다. 수정된 upper bound P-norm의 도입으로 모든 지점의 응력 성분을 고려하면서, 전역적 응력값이 국부적 최대 응력값과 근사한 값을 가질 수 있도록 설정하였다. 또한 기존의 피로 파괴 제약 조건 위상최적설계에서 다루지 않았던 응력 수정 계수에 대한 고려를 위하여 위상최적설계 결과물의 1차 주응력 성분을 고려하여 응력 수정 계수를 도입하고 이에 따라 허용 응력 진폭 값을 수정 하였다. 이를 통하여 인장 응력으로 인한 내구 한도 감소 요인을 반영한 체계적인 설계 방안을 제시하였다.

In order to solve the limitation of the long span arch structures, a numerical analysis was carried out to investigate the effects of embedded trench installation technique to the earth pressure of an underground arch-rib shaped structure. For the arch-rib shape, the parabolic curve and the circular shape were analyzed according to the span-rise ratio varying from 0.1 to 0.5. The finite element analysis program, ABAQUS (2016), was used to consider the soil - structure interaction. The results from the analysis was verified through comparison with the existing Geofoam application technique.

In this study, The recent national interest is focused on the welfare of the people, and new projects in the construction sector are being reduced, and the aging of infrastructure is not getting attention. In domestic case, most of the infrastructures were built in the 1970s to 1980s, and the road extension is also steadily increasing. Therefore, the costs to bridge maintenance from around 2010 by a similar route to that of advanced countries are also 4 times And it is time to pay attention to maintenance as well as construction. Therefore, a study was carried out on the valuation method considering bridge condition evaluation, which is a part of BIM library building and assembly program development. The proposed value evaluation method will be used as an index of the existence of bridges by comparing the cost required for maintenance and reinforcement of the target bridges and the costs required for dismantling and disposal in the bridge management system of the future program

In order to reduce the seismic response of the spatial structure, a seismic isolation system with sufficient flexibility is used. The natural period of structure with seismic isolation system got be long to avoid prominent period. In this study, The seismic response of the truss-arch structure, which is modeled in three types according to the rise-span ratio is analyzed on El-centro, Northridge and Artificial Earthquake and compared with the seismic response of the truss-arch structure with lead rubber bearing(LRB). When seismic load is applied to the truss arch with isolation system, the horizontal acceleration response of the truss arch is reduced and vertical seismic response is also reduced. The application of the seismic isolation system is effective in controlling the seismic response.

A small dam is of hydraulic structures, which is always exposed to risk by flood, and it’s very important to ensure structural safety. A probabilistic analysis, quantifying variable as a risk factor to ensure safety of small dam, identifying its coefficient of variation, which has become increasingly important. In this study, the risk of seepage failure of foundation within a small dam was estimated based on flood scenarios by rainfall quantile. The final compound risk was evaluated combining probabilities, related to seepage failure and flood level. The seepage failure probability was estimated by performing seepage analysis depending on the water level difference between upstream and downstream in small dam. The probable flood level was estimated by considering hydraulic uncertainty associated with channel geometry, and movable gate operation during the flooding season, applied a probable flood considering hydrologic uncertainty evaluated by Bayesian approach. The safety evaluation of small dam with probabilistic-based compound risk expect to use the index for hydraulic structure design in the future.

계측응답에 대한 모드분해법은 대부분 물리공간에서 정의되고, 모드형상을 이용하여 일반화모드응답을 구하는데 적용된다. 구조물이 가지는 비고전 감쇠에 대한 기존 모드분해법의 한계를 극복하고 단조성을 가지는 모드형상의 분해가능성을 높이기 위하여 상태공간 모드분해법이 최근 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 물리공간에서 정의되었던 모드분해법을 상태공간 모드분해법으로 확장하는 새로운 기법을 제시하고, 이들이 가지는 모드분해 특성과 분해성능을 고찰하였다. 또한 기존 물리공간에서 정의되었던 FDD, BSS 모드분해법을 상태공간 모드분해법으로 확장하는 기법을 제시하였다. 상태공간에서의 모드 확장성을 위하여 구조물의 계측 가속도를 상태변수로 변환하고 이들로 구성된 상태공간을 구성하는 방법도 고찰하였다. 상태공간으로의 확장성과 분해성능을 수치해석을 통하여 검증하였으며, 그 결과 상태공간 모드분해법이 물리공간 모드분해법에 비하여 분해성능이 우수하며, 이론적으로 정의된 상태공간 모드형상과 유사하게 모드형상을 제공하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, natural period formular is presented for a RC shear wall structure with H-, T-, and L-shaped wall sections. The natural period formular proposed by Goel and Chopra and adopted in ASCE 7-10 was modified by using the ratio of the flange and web wall area. The natural periods of structures with H-shaped wall were numerically obtained, the results indicated that the ASCE 7-10 could not consider the natural period variation according to the length of the flange wall, but the proposed formula could do. Especially, ASCE 7-10 estimated much longer periods than eigenvalue analysis, and this implies that conservative seismic design is difficult. The periods by eigenvalue analysis exist between the upper and lower bounds given by the proposed formula, and conservative design is possible by using the proposed lower bound value. In order to verity the effectiveness of the proposed method, actual residential buildings with various types of flange walls are considered. Ambient vibration tests, eigenvalue analyses, and nonlinear dynamic analyses were conducted and the periods were compared with the values by ASCE 7-10 and the proposed formula. The results showed that the proposed formula could estimate more accurately the periods than ASCE 7-10.

The seismically isolated nuclear power plants shall be designed for design basis earthquake (DBE) and considered to ensure safety against beyond design basis earthquake (BDBE). In order to limit the excessive displacement of the seismic isolation system of the seismically isolated structure, the moat is installed at a certain distance from the upper mat supporting the superstructure. This certain distance is called clearance to stop (CS) and is calculated from the 90th percentile displacement of seismic isolation system subjected to BDBE. For design purposes, the CS can be obtained simply by multiplying the median displacement of the seismic isolation system against DBE by scale factor with a value of 3. The DBE and BDBE used in this study were generated by using 30 sets of artificial earthquakes corresponding to the nuclear standard design spectrum. In addition, latin hyper cube sampling was applied to generate 30 sets of artificial earthquakes corresponding to maximum - minimum spectra. For the DBE, the median displacement and the 99th percentile displacement of the seismic isolation system were calculated. For the BDBE, the suitability of the scale factor was assessed after calculating the 90th percentile displacement of the seismic isolation system.

This paper presents the novel observation model, called Modified Spherical Signature Descriptor(MSSD), capable of representing 2D image generated from 3D point cloud data. The Modified Spherical Signature Descriptor has a uniform mesh grid to accumulate the occupancy evidence caused by neighbor point cloud data. According to a kind of area such as wall, road, tree, car, and so on, the evidence pattern of 2D image looks so different each other. For the parameter learning of Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) layers, these 2D images were applied as the input layer. The Convolutional Neural Network, one of the deep learning methods and familiar with the image analysis, was utilized for the urban structure classification. The case study on CNN practice was introduced in detail in this paper. The simulation results shows that the classification accuracy of CNN with 2D images of the proposed MSSD was improved more than the traditional methods' one.

본 연구에서는 역량스펙트럼법을 이용해 얻어진 구조물의 성능점을 확률적으로 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다. ATC-40에 따라 역량스펙트럼법을 이용하여 4층 1경간 철골구조물의 성능점을 산정하였다. 요구스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 성능한계를 초과하는지 여부를 분석하기 위해 구조부재의 소성변형각으로부터 정의되는 구조물의 성능한계에 대해 한계변위를 도출하였다. 또한 설계응답스펙트럼과 유사한 응답스펙트럼을 가지는 인공지진파 30개를 선정하여 스펙트럼 가속도에 따른 각 성능한계의 초과여부를 통해 fragility curve를 도출하였다. 관측된 초과확률을 이용하여 fragility curve를 도출하기 위해 maximum likelihood method를 사용하였다. 각 성능한계점에 대응하는 설계응답스펙트럼의 응답가속도값에서 성능한계점을 초과할 확률은 존재하는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 방식은 구조물의 성능점에 대해 지진파의 불확실성을 고려한 확률적 평가가 가능하고, 시간증분해석이 필요하지 않아 해석시간을 상당부분 단축시킬 수 있다는 장점이 있다.

구조물의 감쇠비는 내풍성능을 평가하는 가장 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. 구조물의 실제 감쇠비는 대부분 계측된 응답을 기반으로 시스템 식별기술에 의하여 이루어진다. 그러나 예측된 감쇠비는 계측조건, 계측시간 및 시스템 식별기술에 따라 오차를 보이는 등 불확실성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기 개발된 가상 동적진동기(Virtual Dynamic shaker)에 주요 개념으로 사용되었던 외부하중 스펙트럼의 전체 평탄성을 국부 평탄성으로 개념을 확대하여 감쇠비 추정을 보다 정교하게 하는 기법을 개발하였다. 국부 평탄성을 개념을 사용하여 감쇠비를 구하고자 하는 대상 모드의 고유진동수 부근에 적용함으로서 보다 정확하게 감쇠비 추정하는 기법을 다루었다. 본 개발된 기법을 검증하기 위하여 고층건물의 상시진동에 대하여 적용하였으며, 기존 시스템 식별법, 자유진동실험에 의한 결과와 비교 평가하였다. 그 결과 전체 평탄성을 가지는 개념에 비하여 국부평탄성을 가지는 VDS가 보다 정확하게 감쇠비를 추정하는 것을 보였다.

기류흐름에 의한 다양한 진동현상이 구조물에 발생한다. 이중 와류에 의한 진동은 구조물의 고유진동수와 일치하는 와류의 방출진동수에서는 Lock-in 현상에 의해 큰 진동을 유발하며 구조물에 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 대부분의 와류 현상은 등류에서 관찰되는 현상을 대상으로 이루어졌다. 본 연구에서는 대기 경계층에서 높이에 따라 풍속이 변화하는 난류에 의하여 구조물에 발생하는 와류의 영향을 풍동실험을 통하여 평가하였다. 탄성체 모형실험으로부터 계측된 가속도로부터 하중추정법을 이용 하여 와류진동을 발생시키는 1차 모드 와류하중을 추정하였으며 그 특성을 분석하였다. 추정된 와류하중의 스펙트럼을 보면 구조물 최상층 풍속의 약 88-90%에 해당하는 풍속에서 와류방출진동수가 두드러지게 나타나면서 피크를 형성하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 풍 속이 점차 증가할수록 와류하중의 스펙트럼의 진동수범위가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 난류에 의한 와류하중을 특성을 반영 하면 초고층 구조물 등에 발생하는 풍직각 방향의 진동현상을 보다 효과적으로 파악하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 5층에 설치된 능동질량감쇠기를 사용하여 5층 철골구조물의 처음 세 개 모드의 모드 특성을 식별하였다. 이 건물은 병진모드와 비틀림모드의 고유진동수가 매우 근접하며, 이 경우 정확한 모드 분리와 모달 파라미터 식별은 매우 어렵다. 사인 하중 가진실험을 수행하여 모드 진동수, 감쇠비, 질량, 모드형상을 식별하였고, 근접한 모드 응답을 분리하였다. 식별된 시스템은 동일 한 입력신호를 사용하여 측정된 구조물의 응답과 매우 근접한 응답을 추정할 수 있다.

진동대를 통한 백색잡음 가진 실험과 모드별 고유진동수의 Sine wave 가진 후 자유진동 실험을 통해 다자유도 구조물의 영상기반 동특성 추정을 수행하고자 하였다. 실제 현장에 적용하기에 앞서, 15 케이스의 모형 구조물을 통한 동특성 식별을 통해 영상 기반 계측 시스템의 적용성을 검증하였다. 캠코더를 통한 계측 및 동특성 추정 결과는 LDS(Laser Displacement Sensor) 및 가속도계 를 통한 결과와 비교하여 유효성을 판단하고자 하였다. 시간 및 진동수 영역에서의 동적계측 결과, 모든 센서를 통한 계측 결과가 높은 유사성을 나타냈다. 또한 캠코더 계측 데이터를 활용한 동특성 추정 결과는 LDS 및 가속도계 계측 데이터를 통한 추정 결과와 전 체적으로 유사하게 나타나므로, 영상기반 계측을 통한 구조물 동특성 추정은 유효성이 있다고 판단된다.

Spatial Structure has suffered from a lot of damage due to the use of lightweight roofs. Among them, the damage caused by strong winds was the greatest, and the failure of the calculation of the wind load was the most frequent cause. It provides that wind tunnel test is used to calculate the wind load. However, it is often the case that the wind load is calculated based on the standard of wind load in the development design stage. Therefore based on this, the structure type and structural system and member design are often determined. Spatial structure is usually open at a certain area. The retractable roof structure should be operated with the open roof in some cases, so the wind load for the open shape should be considered, but it is not clear on the basis of the wind load standard. In this paper, the design wind pressure of a closed and retractable roof structure is calculated by KBC2016, AIJ2004, ASCE7-10, EN2005, and the applicability of wind pressure coefficient is compared with wind tunnel test.

Wireless MEMS sensors have common features such as wireless communication, data measurement, embedded processing, battery-based self-power, and low cost, and increased measurement effectiveness. Wireless MEMS sensors enable efficient SHM without interfering with location because there is no requirement for triboelectric noise and cumbersome cables. However, there is little research on the communication distance with sensors and data. For instance, existing researches have limited communication distance experiments in civil engineering bridges. It is also necessary to investigate the characteristics of dynamic behavior and the communication distance of architectural structures with different wireless transmission/reception environments. Therefore, in a building structure with walls and slabs instead of open spaces, MEMS sensors and data loggers were used as distance experiments where communication disturbance between the vertical slab and the horizontal wall could actually be communicated.
