This paper proposes a method for the estimation of the seismic energy demands of two-way asymmetric-plan buildings under bi-directional
ground excitations. The modal absorbed energies of asymmetric-plan buildings are estimated by using the three-degree-of-freedom
(3DOF) modal systems. The 3DOF modal system represents the two roof translations versus the two base shears and the roof rotation
versus the base torque relationships of each vibration mode of two-way asymmetric-plan buildings. Not only the total absorbed
energy but also the portions of the total absorbed energy contributed from translational and rotational deformations can be
respectively estimated. This study verifies the relationship between the signs of modal eccentricities and the trend of uneven
distribution of modal absorbed energy on floor-plan edges of asymmetric-plan buildings. The accuracy of the proposed method
was verified by analyzing one 3-storey and one 20-storey two-way asymmetric-plan buildings subjected to bi-directional ground
motions. The computational efficiency of the proposed method is confirmed by comparing the computation time with that required
by using the nonlinear response history analysis. 相似文献

Uneven distribution of seismic demand in asymmetric-plan structures is a critical concern in earthquake-resistant design. Contemporary seismic design strategies that are based on linear elastic response, single load reduction factor, and uniform ductility demand throughout an asymmetric system generally lead to unsatisfactory performance in terms of realized ductilities and nonuniform damage distribution due to strong torsional coupling associated with asymmetric-plan systems. In many cases, actual nonlinear behavior of the structure displays significant deviation from what is estimated by a linear elastic, force-based seismic design approach. This study investigates the prediction of seismic demand distribution among structural members of a single-story, torsionally stiff asymmetric-plan system. The focus is on the effect of inherent unbalanced overstrength, resulting from current force-based design practices, on the seismic response of code-designed single-story asymmetric structures. The results obtained are utilized to compile unsymmetrical response spectra and uniform ductility spectra, which are proposed as assessment and preliminary design tools for estimating the seismic performance of multistory asymmetric structures. A simple design strategy is further suggested for improving the inelastic torsional performance of asymmetric systems. Providing additional strength to stiff edge members over their nominal design strength demands leads to a more balanced ductility distribution. Finally, seismic responses of several asymmetric case study structures designed with the aid of the proposed strategy are assessed for validating their improved performance. 相似文献

Coupling between lateral and torsional motions may lead to much larger edge deformations in asymmetric-plan systems compared to systems with a symmetric plan. Supplemental viscous damping has been found to be effective in reducing deformations in the symmetric-plan system. This investigation examined how supplemental damping affects the edge deformations in asymmetric-plan systems. First, the parameters that characterize supplemental viscous damping and its plan-wise distribution were identified, and then the effects of these parameters on edge deformations were investigated. It was found that supplemental damping reduces edge deformations and that reductions by a factor of up three are feasible with proper selection of system parameters. Furthermore, viscous damping may be used to reduce edge deformations in asymmetric-plan systems to levels equal to or smaller than those in the corresponding symmetric-plan system. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Structural irregularity in new buildings is sometimes desired for aesthetic reasons. Often it is unavoidable due to different uses in adjacent spaces within the building. The seismic behaviour of irregular structures is harder to predict than that of regular buildings. More comprehensive analysis techniques are often required to achieve adequate accuracy. Designing irregular structures poses additional challenges as the structural characteristics are unknown. There is a lack of practical design methods that reliably produce economic and seismically robust design solutions for highly irregular RC structures. This paper presents an extension of the Effective Modal Design (EMD) method from asymmetric-plan RC wall buildings to vertically setback asymmetric-plan RC wall buildings. EMD is a generalization of the Direct Displacement-Based Design method for highly irregular ductile uncoupled RC wall structures. EMD reverse engineers a multi-degree of freedom Equivalent Linear System to produce the most economic design solution that achieves the target performance levels. The utility of EMD is verified for a wide range of setback asymmetric-plan reinforced concrete wall structures using nonlinear time history analysis of reasonably realistic 3D structural models. Advantages of EMD include explicit consideration of nonlinear, torsional and ‘higher mode’ effects. The method produces capacity-designed design actions for all reinforced concrete walls in the seismic structural system. EMD only requires three response spectrum type analyses. It does not require time history analysis or pushover analysis. EMD is a practical seismic design method for generally irregular RC wall buildings that uses analysis techniques that most engineering practitioners are familiar and confident with. It was found that for over 95% of the structures considered, EMD achieved critical mean peak responses between ??20 and +?15% of the target response values, with a median of ??5%. This significant improvement in design accuracy and reliability (compared to traditional force based design) was achieved at the relatively small additional computational effort of two Response Spectrum Analyses. This demonstrates the value that the proposed Effective Modal Design method adds to the current spectrum of seismic design methods for irregular ductile RC wall structures. 相似文献

The inelastic response of one-storey systems with one axis of asymmetry subjected to bi-directional base motion is studied in this paper. The effect of the system parameters on response is also evaluated: uncoupled torsional-to-lateral frequency ratio, stiffness eccentricity, and yield strength of the lateral resisting elements. The ensemble of earthquake records used consists of 15 two-component strong ground motions. The response to uni-directional excitation is considered first to examine the influence of the system parameters and to serve as a basis to examine the results of the bi-directional case, which are presented in terms of average spectra for bi- over uni-directional lateral-deformation ratios. It is shown that the effect of inelastic behaviour is, on the average, noteworthy for stiff structures, in turn, the same structures are the most affected by the action of bi-directional ground motions. The effect of the relative intensity of the two orthogonal ground motion components is also studied. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Modified consecutive modal pushover procedure for seismic investigation of one-way asymmetric-plan tall buildings 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
The effects of higher modes and torsion have a significant impact on the seismic responses of asymmetric-plan tall buildings.A consecutive modal pushover(CMP) procedure is one of the pushover methods that have been developed to consider these effects.The aim of this paper is to modify the(CMP) analysis procedure to estimate the seismic demands of one-way asymmetric-plan tall buildings with dual systems.An analysis of 10-,15-and 20-story asymmetric-plan buildings is carried out,and the results from the modified consecutive modal pushover(MCMP) procedure are compared with those obtained from the modal pushover analysis(MPA) procedure and the nonlinear time history analysis(NLTHA).The MCMP estimates of the seismic demands of one-way asymmetric-plan buildings demonstrate a reasonable accuracy,compared to the results obtained from the NLTHA.Furthermore,the accuracy of the MCMP procedure in the prediction of plastic hinge rotations is better than the MPA procedure.The new pushover procedure is also more accurate than the FEMA load distribution and the MPA procedure. 相似文献

A pushover procedure with a load pattern based on the height-wise distribution of the combined modal story shear and torsional moment is proposed to estimate the seismic response of 3D asymmetric-plan building frames. Contribution of the higher modes and torsional response of asymmetric-plan buildings are incorporated into the proposed load pattern. The proposed pushover method is a single-run procedure, which enables tracing the nonlinear response of the structure during the analysis and averts the elusiveness of conducting multiple pushover analyses. The proposed method has been used to estimate the response of two moment-resisting building frames with 9 and 20 stories. The obtained results indicate the appropriate accuracy and efficiency of the proposed procedure in estimating the trend of the drift profiles of the structures resulted from nonlinear time history analyses. 相似文献

An innovative approximate method is presented to consider the plan asymmetry, nonlinear structural behaviour and soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects simultaneously. The proposed method so-called Flexible base 2DMPA (F2MPA) is an extension of 2 degrees of freedom modal pushover analysis (2DMPA) approach to consider foundation flexibility in seismic response analysis of plan asymmetric structures which itself were developed based on Uncoupled Modal Response History Analysis method for inelastic fixed-base asymmetric structures. In F2MPA for each mode shape using 2DMPA procedure, the elastic and inelastic properties of 2DOF modal systems corresponding to the fixed-base structure are initially derived. Then in each time step, displacements and inelastic restoring forces of the superstructure are computed from modal equations of the flexibly-supported structure. In each time step, the nonlinear secant stiffness matrix corresponding to the n-th MDOF modal equations of soil-structure system is updated using the corresponding modal 2DOF system of fixed-base structure. To update the transformed modal stiffness matrix of the SSI system, this matrix is partitioned and it is assumed that the non-linear variation of the superstructure can be estimated from the variation of modal stiffness matrix of the fixed-base structure. Accuracy of the proposed method was verified on an 8-story asymmetric-plan building under different seismic excitations. The results obtained from F2MPA method were compared with those obtained by nonlinear response history analysis of the asymmetric soil-structure system as a reference response. It was shown that the proposed approach could predict the results of the nonlinear time history analysis with a good accuracy. The main advantage of F2MPA is that this method is much less time-consuming and useful for the practical aims such as massive analysis of a nonlinear structure under different records with multiple intensity levels. 相似文献

The steel plate shear wall (SPSW) system is a robust option for earthquake resistance due to the strength, stiffness, ductility and energy dissipation that it provides. Although thin infill plates are efficient for resisting lateral loads, boundary frames that are proportioned based on capacity design requirements add significant structural weight that appears to be one of the factors limiting the use of the system in practice. An alternate configuration, the SPSW with coupling (SPSW‐WC), was explored recently as an option for increasing architectural flexibility while also improving overall system economy and seismic performance. The SPSW‐WC, which extensively employs flexural boundary frame contribution, has shown promise in analytical, numerical and experimental studies, but recent research on uncoupled SPSWs suggests that boundary frame contribution should not be considered for carrying seismic design shear. As a result, in the present study, boundary frame contribution in SPSWs was explored with detailed three‐dimensional finite element models, which were validated against large‐scale SPSW‐WC tests. Six‐story systems were considered, and the study matrix included single and double uncoupled SPSWs along with coupled SPSWs that had various degrees of coupling. Variations in design methodology were also explored. The modeling framework was employed to conduct static monotonic and cyclic pushover analyses and dynamic response history analysis. These analyses demonstrate the beneficial effect of coupling in SPSWs and illustrate the need to consider boundary frame contribution in design of coupled SPSWs. In addition, sharing design shear between the infill plate and the boundary frame is more generally shown to not be detrimental if this sharing is done in the design stage based on elastic analysis and the resulting boundary frame provides adequate secondary strength and stiffness following infill plate yielding.

This paper studied the reasons behind the four trends in torsional effects in asymmetric-plan buildings observed in the current literature. It was found that the modal eccentricities and the non-proportionality between the modal translations and the modal rotation are key to understanding these trends in torsional effects in asymmetric-plan buildings. These key points were obtained from the three-degree-of-freedom modal systems, which represent the single vibration mode of a two-way asymmetric-plan building. This paper showed that the modal eccentricities, rather than the overall structural eccentricities, are the critical parameters for deciding the trend of the unequal displacement demand on the floor diaphragm. In addition, the non-proportionality between the modal translations and the modal rotation leads to the trend that the torsional effects generally decrease when plastic deformations increase. 相似文献

Based on an asymmetric multistorey frame building model, this paper investigates the influence of a building's higher vibration modes on its inelastic torsional response and evaluates the adequacy of the provisions of current seismic building codes and the modal analysis procedure in accounting for increased ductility demand in frames situated at or near the stiff edge of such buildings. It is concluded that the influence of higher vibration modes on the response of the upper-storey columns of stiff-edge frames increases significantly with the building's fundamental uncoupled lateral period and the magnitude of the stiffness eccentricity. The application of the equivalent static torsional provisions of certain building codes may lead to non-conservative estimates of the peak ductility demand, particularly for structures with large stiffness eccentricity. In these cases, the critical elements are vulnerable to excessive additional ductility demand and, hence, may be subject to significantly more severe structural damage than in corresponding symmetric buildings. It is found that regularly asymmetric buildings excited well into the inelastic range may not be conservatively designed using linear elastic modal analysis theory. Particular caution is required when applying this method to the design of stiff-edge frame elements in highly asymmetric structures. 相似文献

A dynamic analysis of elastic–viscoplastic systems, incorporating the modal co-ordinate transformation technique, is presented. The formulation results in uncoupled incremental equations of motion with respect to the modal co-ordinates. The elastic–viscoplastic model adopted allows the analysis not to involve yielding regions and loading/unloading processes. An implicit Runge–Kutta scheme together with the Newton–Raphson method are used to solve the non-linear constitutive equations. Stability and accuracy of the numerical solution are improved by utilizing a local time step sub-incrementing procedure. Applications of the analyses to multi-storey shear buildings show that good results can be obtained for the maximum displacement response by including only a few lower modes in the computation, but the prediction of the ductility factor response tends to underestimate the peak values when too few modes are used. In addition, stable and valid results can be obtained even with a sizable time step increment. 相似文献

The problem of predicting the response of hysteretic yielding systems under random excitation is considered. The paper presents a linearization scheme which is motivated by extensive simulation studies of the bilinear hysteretic system. The response process is decomposed into a low frequency drift component and a component with a frequency near the linearized natural frequency of the system. Effective stiffness and damping parameters are presented. The accuracy of the various steps of the scheme is examined. The approach gives results which are in close agreement with simulation estimates even for large-system non-linearity. 相似文献

The seismic response of single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) systems incorporating flag‐shaped hysteretic structural behaviour, with self‐centring capability, is investigated numerically. For a SDOF system with a given initial period and strength level, the flag‐shaped hysteretic behaviour is fully defined by a post‐yielding stiffness parameter and an energy‐dissipation parameter. A comprehensive parametric study was conducted to determine the influence of these parameters on SDOF structural response, in terms of displacement ductility, absolute acceleration and absorbed energy. This parametric study was conducted using an ensemble of 20 historical earthquake records corresponding to ordinary ground motions having a probability of exceedence of 10% in 50 years, in California. The responses of the flag‐shaped hysteretic SDOF systems are compared against the responses of similar bilinear elasto‐plastic hysteretic SDOF systems. In this study the elasto‐plastic hysteretic SDOF systems are assigned parameters representative of steel moment resisting frames (MRFs) with post‐Northridge welded beam‐to‐column connections. In turn, the flag‐shaped hysteretic SDOF systems are representative of steel MRFs with newly proposed post‐tensioned energy‐dissipating connections. Building structures with initial periods ranging from 0.1 to 2.0s and having various strength levels are considered. It is shown that a flag‐shaped hysteretic SDOF system of equal or lesser strength can always be found to match or better the response of an elasto‐plastic hysteretic SDOF system in terms of displacement ductility and without incurring any residual drift from the seismic event.

In low‐rise steel‐concrete composite structures, moment‐resisting frames can be designed to develop a ductile response in beam‐to‐column joints and column bases by activating flexural yielding of beams and end plates, shear yielding of column web panel zones and yielding of anchors. To evaluate the performance of these components under differing earthquake intensities, a series of pseudodynamic, quasistatic cyclic and vibration tests were carried out on a two‐storey two‐bay moment resisting structure. The performance‐based seismic design and control of these structures requires that stiffness degradation, strength deterioration and slip are properly modelled. In this context, compact hysteretic models can play a key role and must therefore be striven for. Nonetheless, relevant techniques, like nonlinear system identification, are far from representing standard and reliable tools for the dynamic characterization of full‐scale structural systems. With this objective in mind, we present a restoring force surface‐based technique applied to pseudodynamic test data, in view of the nonlinear identification of multistorey frames. The technique is developed by means of a parametric approach, where a time‐variant stiffness operator is coupled to a modified Bouc–Wen model that allows both for slip and for degradation in stiffness. Strength deterioration is indirectly taken into account too. We also show how model‐based parameters can be correlated to the damage process progressively observed both in the structure and in its components. Finally, the predictive capabilities of the identified model are highlighted. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The peak dynamic responses of two mathematical models of a fifteen-storey steel moment resisting frame building subjected to three earthquake excitations are computed by the response spectrum and time history methods. The models examined are: a ‘regular’ building in which the centres of stiffness and mass are coincident resulting in uncoupled modes with well-separated periods in each component direction of response; and an ‘irregular’ building with the mass offset from the stiffness centre of the building causing coupled modes with the translational modes having closely spaced periods. Four response spectrum modal combination rules are discussed and are used to predict the peak responses: (1) the square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) method; (2) the double sum combination (DSC) method; (3) the complete quadratic combination (CQC) method; and (4) the absolute sum (ABS) method. The response spectrum results are compared to the corresponding peak time history values to evaluate the accuracy of the different combination rules. The DSC and the CQC methods provide good peak response estimates for both the regular and irregular building models. The SRSS method provides good peak response estimates for the regular building, but yields significant errors in the irregular building response estimates. The poor accuracy in the irregular building results is attributable to the effects of coupled modes with closely spaced periods. It is concluded that the DSC and CQC methods produce response estimates of equivalent accuracy. Both methods are recommended for general use. In addition to the DSC and CQC rules, the SRSS method is recommended for systems where coupled modes with closely spaced periods do not dominate the response. 相似文献

Structural eccentricity and Uncoupled Frequency Ratio (UFR) are two system parameters that strongly influence the elastic response of eccentric structures. The opinions differ regarding their influence on the inelastic response. Different investigators arrived at contradictory conclusions on the influence of uncoupled frequency ratio. The reasons for these contradictions are the use of different definitions and different models in the inelastic studies. In this paper, three possible definitions of the uncoupled frequency ratio are identified, and their influence is studied on the inelastic response. An ensemble of 10 real earthquakes of 20 s duration is used. The response is measured in terms of the mean plus one standard deviation of the ductility ratio. The value of the UFR obtained by each of the three possible definitions is not always admissible. It is concluded that the inelastic response depends upon the eccentric system, definition employed for the UFR, time period of the eccentric systems and the basis of strength distribution among the various lateral elements. 相似文献

Seismic analysis of structures with a fractional derivative model of viscoelastic dampers 总被引：3，自引：3，他引：0
Viscoelastic dampers are now among some of the preferred energy dissipation devices used for passive seismic response control.
To evaluate the performance of structures installed with viscoelastic dampers, different analytical models have been used
to characterize their dynamic force deformation characteristics. The fractional derivative models have received favorable
attention as they can capture the frequency dependence of the material stiffness and damping properties observed in the tests
very well. However, accurate analytical procedures are needed to calculate the response of structures with such damper models.
This paper presents a modal analysis approach, similar to that used for the analysis of linear systems, for solving the equations
of motion with fractional derivative terms for arbitrary forcing functions such as those caused by earthquake induced ground
motions. The uncoupled modal equations still have fractional derivatives, but can be solved by numerical or analytical procedures.
Both numerical and analytical procedures are formulated. These procedures are then used to calculate the dynamic response
of a multi-degree of freedom shear beam structure excited by ground motions. Numerical results demonstrating the response
reducing effect of viscoelastic dampers are also presented. 相似文献
