Abstract

This study examined the behavior change of river levees during an earthquake by numerical analysis. Unlike conventional research using artificial earthquake waves, earthquake analysis was performed using real earthquake waves. The behavior of a river levee before and after an earthquake was compared and analyzed quantitatively. Studies show that the river levee has a safety factor of approximately 28.5% due to an earthquake. On the other hand, the minimum standard safety factor is satisfied. Vertical effective stress has decreased by 81.8% due to excess pore-water pressure generated by the earthquake. In addition, liquefaction occurs in most of the foundation soil. An examination of the stress-displacement behavior due to the earthquake revealed a large amount of settlement in the backfill layer. Most of the foundation soil yielded. Therefore, the target river levee is quite vulnerable to earthquakes. Through the results of this study, the necessity of refreshing the seismic design standards for river levees is required. This study can be used as basic data for estimating the approximate damage level and vulnerable areas.

하천 제방의 경우 내진설계 제외 시설로 지정되어 있다. 하지만 지진으로 인해 하천 제방이 붕괴될 경우 경제적 손실과 인명 피해는 필연적으로 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지진 시 하천 제방의 거동 변화 분석을 수치해석적으로 검토하였다. 기존 연구들과 달리 실지진파를 이용한 동해석을 수행하였으며, 지진 발생 전/후 하천 제방의 거동을 정량적으로 비교하고 분석하였다. 연구결과, 제방의 활동 안전율은 지진 발생전 대비 약 28.5% 감소되었지만, 최소 기준 안전율은 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 지진으로 인해 발생한 과잉간극수압으로 연직유효응력은 81.8% 감소하였고, 기초지반 대부분이 액상화 현상이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 지진으로 인한 응력-변위 거동 검토 결과, 제내지 측성토층에서 큰 침하가 발생하는 것으로 나타났으며 기초지반 대부분이 항복하는 것으로 나타나 검토 대상 하천 제방은 지진에 상당히 취약한 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구 결과를 토대로 하천 제방에 대한 내진설계 기준 재정립의 필요성이 확보되었으며, 개략적인 피해영역과 지진취약구간을 예측할 수 있는 기초자료로써의 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
