| PC-wall is used as road retaining wall made by self standing earth bracing
structure and is required to take a role of emergency transport road immediately
after earthquakes. In addition, civil engineering structure design is changing
to international standards performance styles. It is the reason of the
necessity of prompt decision about reasonable design method with concrete
required performance rule according to the earthquake size and structure
importance, also for PC-wall seismic design. Therefore, we conducted the
analysis that considers PC-wall non-linear by using Engineer's Studio®
and proposed reasonable seismic design method for self standing type retaining
wall structure based on the verification of actual curve test result. |

With triple span steel plate girder bridge as material, we held 1-OUT contest
with the theme "how we should take urgent action if central section
of the main girder breaks up?"
The purpose of this work is that we understand structure characteristics
of steel bridge and learn the skills to adapt to circumstances if an accident
occurs on bridge in the future. |

|
| For sewer facilities, this work proposes the limit value that local strain
is used as the standard towards that structure designers utilize non-linear
FEM and conduct reasonable performance verification of RC structures. Based
on the existing load experiment result, we used Engineer's Studio®
and confirmed that Box Culvert's response can be evaluated analytically
first, and then we considered the limit value of each seismic performance. |

Shallow water equations based tsunami attack simulation with the idea of disaster prevention on software
-Influence of building modeling on tsunami attack simulation result-

| In order to reduce tsunami damage caused by Nankai megathrust earthquakes,
it is considered necessary to improve residents' awareness about disaster
prevention and reduction. Therefore, more accurate tsunami propagation
prediction and its visualization for easy informing are important. Prediction
of tsunami propagation on the ocean after earthquake is said to have enough
prediction accuracy because it performs an analysis based on the shallow
water equations that considers average flow velocity and hydrostatic pressure
in the depth direction. For the phenomenon that tsunami runs up the land,
it is considered that a long wave cannot always be presumed and it seems
that prediction accuracy is not clear. However, shallow water equations
has a big advantage that it can be treated as two dimensional issue. Therefore,
aiming to improve prediction accuracy of tsunami running over ground issue,
we considered how building modelization affects on simulation result. We
also made a study on numerical experiment visualization. |

| Study of tsunami damage on existing tide water gate, shell-type roller
gate by creating door structure model and doorstop model with Engineer's
Studio®. We verified that the damage on the door caused by the level
1 tsunami does not impair the door function. Against level 2 tsunami, we
made the basic material to create evacuation plan by revealing damage condition. |

Structure characteristic understanding of rainwater storage and infiltration
facilities "aquapalace method"
-Application of 3D frame analysis in the development of storage and infiltration
facilities-

|
These days, necessity of rain runoff suppression facilities has been increasing,
especially in the city. Also, water securing is required at the time of
emergency like large-scale disaster. For these situations, we developed
and improved Aqua Palace construction method in order to realize a underground
storage system that can be used as the facility for rainwater storage,
infiltration, and utilization.
This time, we have make improvements mainly in the growing of partition plate, from 335 mm x 335 mm to 675 mm x 675 mm, and the reduction of the number of main SP pipes. |

|
| In the order stage of construction work after completing bridge repair
design outsourcing in 2011, on-site review revealed that the pier size
differed from the size in design. According to the policy of repair study
in previous years, we created analysis model that uses the actual pier
size measured on site with Engineer's Studio®, and conducted seismic
study by the gradually increasing load and non-linear analysis. |
