The optimal design of the members of conventional structures or structures equipped with active bracing systems, known as active structures, is presented for uncertain excitations. Three approaches are used for obtaining the optimal structural design: (1) the time-history analysis of an actual earthquake record (AR), (2) the global energy-bound convex model adjusted with an excitation-specific reduction factor (RGEB), and (3) the global energy-bound convex model adjusted with an average reduction factor (ARGEB) for a set of excitations with common characteristics. The optimal structures obtained using the RGEB and ARGEB convex models have different sizes for their conventional members from the designs based on a time-history analysis of the actual earthquake (AR). The optimal design of the structure is carried out using a modified annealing algorithm. The advantage of using convex models to perform the optimization is that they represent a more general excitation than a single earthquake record. In addition, the RGEB and ARGEB convex models require considerably less computational effort since the constraints of the optimization become time-independent. A comparison between optimal designs of structures with conventional members only, and active structures indicates that the latter are more efficient by combining the conventional and active members.  相似文献

The low‐cycle fatigue model presented in the companion paper is employed for developing hysteresis and damage models for deteriorating systems. The hysteresis model performs strength reduction at a current displacement cycle by evaluating the loss in the energy dissipation capacity along the completed displacement path. Hence it is completely memory dependent. Pinching is accounted for implicitly by a reduced energy dissipation capacity in a displacement cycle. The model predicts the experimental results obtained from variable‐amplitude tests reasonably well. Response analysis under earthquake excitations reveals that both the maximum displacements and the number of large‐amplitude displacement response cycles increase significantly with the reduction in energy dissipation capacity, resulting in higher damage. Damage is defined as the deterioration in the effective stiffness of a displacement cycle, which is in turn related to the reduction in the energy dissipation capacity. A simple damage function is developed accordingly, consisting of displacement and fatigue components. It is observed that the fatigue component of damage is more significant than the displacement component for deteriorating systems under ground motions with significant effective durations.

A stochastic critical excitation is defined as that excitation with a given variance that maximizes the variance in the dynamic response of a system. A non-stationary filtered shot noise is used to develop a stochastic critical excitation model of an earthquake ground motion process, and the response statistics for a linear system are determined in both time and frequency domains. The sensitivity of response to several assumed earthquake pulse arrival rate functions is examined. Responses to recorded strong ground motion and to stochastic critical excitations with the same total energy are compared to assess the degree of conservatism in the procedure. An application of the procedure to seismic qualification of equipment is presented.  相似文献

双向地震动作用的拟等延性系数谱   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
首先建立了以强度折减系数表述的恢复力特性满足二维屈服面模型的理想弹塑性单质点系统(它在2个相互垂直的主轴方向上分别具有水平平动自由度)在双向地震动作用下的归一化运动方程。然后引入单向地震动作用下等延性系数的强度折减系数谱,给出了双向地震动作用的拟等延性系数谱(定义为系统分别承受双向和单向地震动作用,在同一主轴方向上的最大位移反应之比)最后通过硬土场地10组双向地震动记录拟等延性系数谱的统计平均结果,分析了结构周期、位移延性系数和阻尼等因素对谱值及结构双向地震反应的影响。结果表明,双向地震动作用与单向地震动作用相比主要增加结构较长周期方向的最大位移反应。若在基于位移的抗震设计中降低结构较短周期方向的设计位移延性系数,可在一定程度上降低双向地震动的不利影响。因定义的谱为比值形式,阻尼对其影响不大。  相似文献

The existence of the principal directions of the ground motion based on Arias intensity is well-known. These principal directions do not necessarily coincide with the orientations of recording sensors or with the orientations along which the ground motion parameters such as the peak ground acceleration and the pseudo-spectral acceleration (PSA) are maximum. This is evidenced by the fact that the maximum PSA at different natural vibration periods for horizontal excitations do not correspond to the same orientation. A recent analysis carried out for California earthquake records suggests that an orientation-dependent ground motion measurement for horizontal excitations can be developed. The main objective of this study is to investigate and provide seismic ground motion measurements in the horizontal plane, including bidirectional horizontal ground motions, for Mexican interplate and inslab earthquake records. Extensive statistical analyses of PSA are conducted for the assessment, The analysis results suggest that similar to the case of California records, the average behavior of the ratio of the PSA to the maximum resulting PSA can be approximated by a quarter of an ellipse in one quadrant; and that the ratio can be considered to be independent of the value of the maximum resulting PSA, earthquake magnitude, earthquake distance and the focal depth. Sets of response ratios and attenuation relationships that can be used to represent a bidirectional horizontal ground motion measurement for Mexican interplate and inslab earthquakes were also developed.  相似文献

为准确预测地震死亡人数,提出了基于主成分分析法(PCA)和粒子群算法(PSO)优化的支持向量机(SVM)模型。首先利用主成分分析法对地震死亡人数7个影响因子中的6个进行数据降维,同时对第7个发震时刻因子单独进行区间分类,然后对提取出的主成分进行归一化处理,将归一化的主成分数据作为支持向量机的输入向量,通过粒子群算法寻优获得最优支持向量机模型参数,最终建立基于PCA-PSO-SVM的地震死亡人数预测模型,并对5组样本进行死亡人数预测,同时对比分析包含和不包含发震时刻因子的2种情况下的模型预测效果。结果表明:在不考虑发震时刻因子的情况下,使用PCA-PSO-SVM模型的最小误差、最大误差和平均误差分别为0.85%、20%、10%,其平均误差相比PSO-SVM、SVM模型分别降低2.08%、2.28%;输入向量加入发震时刻因子分类数据后,PCA-PSO-SVM模型的最小误差、最大误差和平均误差分别为0.25%、20%、7.18%,其平均误差相比PSO-SVM、SVM模型分别降低3.34%、3.50%。因此,加入发震时刻因子后3种模型的平均误差明显降低,同时由于PCA-PSO-SVM模型进行主成分降维处理,能够明显提高运行效率和预测精度,故降低了模型复杂度。  相似文献

This study evaluates the response reduction effect of linear single degree of freedom systems with a clutching inerter damper (CID) via parametric analysis under harmonic excitations and real earthquake records. The cause of the displacement reduction effect of a CID is inherited from the inertial mass damper (IMD)—reducing the nominal load intensity by increasing the mass by inertance. Additionally, the displacement reduction effect is further enhanced by the clutching effect, which speeds up the decreasing of the velocity response from an instantaneous extremum to 0. Thus, the CID is more effective than the IMD at reducing displacement responses. For example, the displacement response for a long‐period structure with a CID can be reduced by approximately 53%, while for an IMD, it can only be reduced by approximately 24%. Additionally, the linear single degree of freedom system with a CID is a weak nonlinear system reserving homogeneity, indicating that the response reduction factor will provide enough information to reveal the seismic reduction effect of the CID and that there is no need to consider the amplitude of the input excitations. To simplify the analysis of such nonlinear systems, an equivalent linearization method and a simplified formula of displacement reduction factors for code‐based designs are proposed and validated by another independent set of records from the European Strong‐motion Database.  相似文献

A nonlinear hysteretic model for the response and local damage analyses of reinforced concrete shear frames subject to earthquake excitation is proposed, and, the model is applied to analyse midbroken reinforced concrete (RC) structures due to earthquake loads. Each storey of the shear frame is represented by a Clough and Johnston hysteretic oscillator with degrading elastic fraction of the restoring force. The local damage is numerically quantified in the domain [0,1] using the maximum softening damage indicators which are defined in closed form based on the variation of the eigenfrequency of the local oscillators due to the local stiffness and strength deterioration. The proposed method of response and damage analyses is illustrated using a sample 5 storey shear frame with a weak third storey in stiffness and/or strength subject to sinusoidal and simulated earthquake excitations for which the horizontal component of the ground motion is modeled as a stationary Gaussian stochastic process with Kanai-Tajimi spectrum, multiplied by an envelope function.  相似文献

In this paper, the seismic response reduction performance of magnetorheological (MR) damper is experimentally investigated for a suspension bridge. First, the force–displacement and force–velocity curves under a range of excitation frequencies, amplitudes and currents are obtained by mechanical behavior test of the RD1097 type MR damper. Then a new non-linear hysteretic model is proposed to model the mechanical behavior of the MR damper and the model parameters are identified from test data. An experimental method, as well as a set of testing setups with the MR damper for longitudinal seismic response reduction of a SDOF generalized system representing the fundamental longitudinal mode of suspension bridge, is developed. Finally, the seismic response reduction experiment subject to three kinds of earthquake excitations, including the Pingsheng Bridge earthquake wave, the El-Centro wave and the Taft wave, is carried out, and nine control cases, including uncontrolled, six passive control schemes with different input currents and two semi-active Bang–Bang control schemes, are tested. The results verify that the seismic response reduction experimental method is feasible and the good performance of seismic longitudinal response reduction of the suspension bridge can be achieved by MR damper. It is also shown that the passive control with optimum input current outperforms the semi-active Bang–Bang controls.  相似文献

An important aspect of earthquake loads exerted on extended structures, or structures founded on several foundations, is the spatial variability of the seismic motion. Hence, a rigorous earthquake resistant design of lifeline structures should account for the spatial character of the seismic input, at least in an approximate way. A procedure is proposed which enables addressing the problem of multiply supported structures, subjected to imperfectly correlated seismic excitations, by means of an extension to the response spectrum method. A modified response spectrum model is developed for the design of extended facilities subjected to single and multicomponent ground motion. The modification procedure is based on adjusting each spectral value of the given design response spectrum by means of a correction factor, which depends on the structural properties and on the characteristics of the wave propagation phenomenon. Finally, the theoretical model is validated through digital simulation of seismic ground motion, whereby model predictions are found to be in good agreement with exact results.  相似文献

The effectiveness of viscous and viscoelastic dampers for seismic response reduction of structures is quite well known in the earthquake engineering community. This paper deals with the optimal utilization of these dampers in a structure to achieve a desired performance under earthquake‐induced ground excitations. Frequency‐dependent and ‐independent viscous dampers and viscoelastic dampers have been considered as the devices of choice. To determine the optimal size and location of these dampers in the structure, a genetic algorithm is used. The desired performance is defined in terms of several different forms of performance functions. The use of the genetic approach is not limited to any particular form of performance function as long as it can be calculated numerically. For illustration, numerical examples for different building structures are presented showing the distribution and size of different dampers required to achieve a desired level of reduction in the response or a performance index.

Robust performance of hysteretic dampers, used in controlling mid‐rise buildings, against change of earthquake characteristics is investigated in this paper. A shear type ten‐storey building incorporating hysteretic dampers is studied as a model under the assumption of elastic perfectly plastic behavior for inelastic frame and damper deformations. An energy‐based damper performance index is used to evaluate damper overall efficiency. Thirty‐five earthquake records are applied and the damper strength is optimized for each earthquake record to obtain the maximum performance index or the damper efficiency. Based on the obtained numerical results it is found that, besides the effect of maximum energy input on damper efficiency, other time‐dependant properties such as energy‐based effective duration and earthquake dominant period have great influence on the damper efficiency. A factor (α), which represents the combined effect of maximum energy input, effective duration and dominant earthquake period, is also derived for the prediction of damper efficiency.

In order to examine the effect of the spatial variation of ground motion on the response of an indeterminate structure, the stochastic responses of a two-span beam to spatially varying support excitations are analysed. A space-time earthquake ground motion model that accounts for both coherency decay and seismic wave propagation is used to specify the support motions, and the results are compared with those for various simplified excitations that are commonly used in practice. The response is computed through a linear random vibration approach with the structure being modelled by finite elements. The results of the study indicate that, even for moderate lengths, the effect of the spatial variation of ground motion can be significant. The assumption of fully coherent support motions (same excitations at all supports or delayed excitations allowing only for wave propagation) may be overconservative for some beams and unconservative for others.  相似文献

A new concept for the earthquake resistant design of timber shear wall structures is proposed. By providing friction devices in the corners of the framing system of the shear wall, its earthquake resistance and damage control potential can be enhanced considerably. During severe earthquake excitations, the friction devices slip and a large portion of the seismic energy input is dissipated by friction rather than by inelastic deformation of the sheathing-to-framing connectors. A simple numerical model is developed and results of inelastic time-history dynamic analyses show the superior performance of the friction damped timber shear walls compared to conventional shear wall systems. The proposed friction devices act both as safety valves by limiting the inertia forces transmitted to the structure, and as structural dampers by dissipating a significant portion of the seismic energy input. The devices can be used in any configuration of the framing system to accommodate architectural or construction requirements. The damping system may also be conveniently incorporated in existing timber shear wall buildings to upgrade significantly their earthquake resistance.  相似文献

This paper presents a study on the behaviour of rectangular liquid dampers under a horizontal excitation of arbitrary time history. The theoretical model to predict motion of a shallow liquid in a rectangular tank is adapted from a previous researchers' model which was developed for sinusoidal excitations. The model includes an energy dissipation term arising from liquid viscosity. In the present consideration of arbitrary excitations, the energy dissipation term is derived in a straightforward way, without resorting to the equivalent linearization method or assumption of harmonic response as used by earlier researchers. The up-crossing rate of wave height is used in furnishing the Reynolds number required for the evaluation of shear stress in the boundary layer. Since there was no known precedent study involving arbitrary excitations, experiments have been performed accordingly to verify the model. Generally, the theoretical model furnishes results which are found to be in close agreement with the experimental ones. The results also illustrate the strong dependency of liquid motion upon the natural frequency of the damper, amplitude and frequency content of the excitation spectrum. The model is then applied to study the effectiveness of tuned liquid dampers in vibration control of a single-degree-of-freedom structure subjected to earthquake excitations. Significant suppression of structural vibration can be achieved using tuned liquid dampers.  相似文献

To evaluate and measure the effectiveness of active control schemes in reducing the response of structures subjected to earthquake excitations, it is common to use recorded or artificially generated earthquakes as input motions. This paper introduces the response spectrum analysis to evaluate linear control systems for seismic inputs defined by code‐prescribed or site‐specific ground response spectra. Using such a method one can evaluate a control system in a single analysis for the ensemble of time histories that are represented by the input response spectra. The response spectrum analysis can also facilitate the implementation of comprehensive parametric studies. A generalized response spectrum method is used to analyse systems with non‐symmetrical matrices that are caused by the general nature of the control actions imposed on the structure. The application of the method is demonstrated on several numerical examples of a building structure where the control force is applied through an active tuned‐mass damper.

A random vibration method is developed for the response analysis of hysteretic structural systems under stochastic two-dimensional earthquake excitations. The biaxial hysteretic restoring force is modelled by coupled non-linear differential equations; the response statistics are obtained using the equivalent linearization technique. The validity of the proposed model is appraised using available biaxial loading tests of reinforced concrete columns. A parametric study was performed to examine the significance of the effects of biaxial interaction under earthquake excitations. A practical method to evaluate the extreme response statistics is also presented.  相似文献

Accurate estimation of the peak seismic responses of structures is important in earthquake resistant design. The internal force distributions and the seismic responses of structures are quite complex, since ground motions are multi- directional. One key issue is the uncertainty of the incident angle between the directions of ground motion and the reference axes of the structure. Different assumed seismic incidences can result in different peak values within the scope of design spectrum analysis for a given structure and earthquake ground motion record combination. Using time history analysis to determine the maximum structural responses excited by a given earthquake record requires repetitive calculations to determine the critical incident angle. This paper presents a transformation approach for relatively accurate and rapid determination of the maximum peak responses of a linear structure subjected to three-dimensional excitations within all possible seismic incident angles. The responses can be deformations, internal forces, strains and so on. An irregular building structure model is established using SAP2000 program. Several typical earthquake records and an artifi cial white noise are applied to the structure model to illustrate the variation of the maximum structural responses for different incident angles. Numerical results show that for many structural parameters, the variation can be greater than 100%. This method can be directly applied to time history analysis of structures using existing computer software to determine the peak responses without carrying out the analyses for all possible incident angles. It can also be used to verify and/or modify aseismic designs by using response spectrum analysis.  相似文献
