Abstract

A weighted linear combination of seismic fragility models previously developed for cut-and-cover railway tunnels was presented and the appropriateness of the combined model was evaluated. The seismic fragility function is expressed in the form of a cumulative probability function of the lognormal distribution based on the peak ground acceleration. The model uncertainty can be reduced by combining models independently developed. Equal weight is applied to four models. The new seismic fragility function was developed for each damage level by determining the median and standard deviation, which are model metrics. Comparing fragility curves developed for other bored tunnels, cut-and-cover tunnels for high-speed railway system have a similar level of fragility. We postulated that this is due to the high seismic design standard for high-speed railway tunnel.

본 연구에서는 기존에 개발된 개착식 철도 터널의 지진취약도 모델들을 가중 조합하여 새로운 모델을 제시하고 제시한 모델의 적정성을 평가하였다. 지진취약도 함수의 형태는 최대지반가속도의 대수정규분포형태로, 누적확률분포로 표현된다. 독립적으로 개발된 각 모델을 선형 가중 조합하는 것으로 모델의 불확실성을 줄일 수 있기에 4개의 모델에 대하여 25%씩 동등하게 선형가중을 부여하였다. 조합된 지진취약도 곡선에 최대지반가속도에 대한 피해발생확률을 이용하여 지진취약도 곡선의 중앙값과 표준편차를 결정하여 새로운 지진취약도 함수를 개발하였다. 개발된 지진취약도 함수의 적합성을 평가하기 위하여 다양한 터널의 지진취약도 곡선과 비교 분석을 진행하였다. 개발된 곡선은 상대적으로 지진피해에 안전한 굴착식 터널의 지진취약도 함수와 비슷한 취약도를 갖는 것으로 나타나는데, 대상 터널은 국내 고속철도 개착식 터널로 높은 내진설계 기준에 의해 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.
