Experimental results concerning the earthquake response of a marble model of a classical column are reported herein. The model was a 1: 3 scale replica of a column of the Parthenon on the Acropolis of Athens, made from the same material as the original. Several earthquake motions, scaled appropriately in order to cause significant rocking but no collapse of the column, were used as the excitation. The base motion was applied in plane (in one horizontal and the vertical direction) or in space (in two horizontal and the vertical direction), using the shaking table facility at the Laboratory for Earthquake Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens. It was found that the column might undergo large deformations during the shaking, which are not necessarily reflected by the residual displacements at the end of it. For planar excitations, significant out‐of‐plane displacements can happen, triggered by the inevitable imperfections of the specimen. It was also verified that the response is very sensitive, even to small changes of the geometry or the input motion parameters. For this reason, the experiments were not repeatable and ‘identical’ experiments produced different results. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

RESPONSE OF IMPACT DAMPERS WITH GRANULAR MATERIALS UNDER RANDOM EXCITATION     

A. PAPALOU  S. F. MASRI 《地震工程与结构动力学》1996,25(3):253-267

This paper presents the results of an experimental and analytical study of the performance of granular material dampers with tungsten powder, as an impacting mass, under wide-band random excitation. The influence of some of the major system parameters such as the total auxiliary mass ratio, container dimensions and intensity of the excitation are investigated using a small building model under base excitation. An approximate analytical solution based on the concept of an equivalent single-unit impact damper is presented. Comparison between the experimental and analytical results shows that, with the proper use of the equivalent single-particle impact damper approach, reasonably accurate estimates of the rms response of a primary system under stationary random excitation can be obtained.  相似文献   

FLOW SEPARATION IN UNDISTURBED SOIL USING MULTIPLE ANIONIC TRACERS. PART 3: UNSTEADY CORE-SCALE INFILTRATION EXPERIMENTS     

M. O. ABDULKABIR  K. J. BEVEN  A. D. REEVES 《水文研究》1996,10(11):1467-1482

Solute transport through structured, undisturbed soil has been studied in transient, unsaturated experiments using columns from grass and woodland sites on the Lancaster University campus. Three anionic tracers have been used, bromide (Br⁻) and two fluorinated organic acids (pentraflurobenzoic acid and 2,6-diflurobenzoic acid). The process of displacement of stored water from undisturbed columns was investigated using successive inputs of different tracers under similar antecedent conditions. The results indicated that initial breakthrough was rapid, with a relative concentration of 0.8 being reached between 0.4 and 0.5 pore volumes of discharge. It was found that there was an apparent continued discharge of ‘old’ water, stored in the column before any additions of tracer, even after the addition of a total of 4.9 and 5.4 pore volumes of water for the grass and woodland columns, respectively. The implications of the results of these tracer studies for modelling solute transport in structured soils are considered.  相似文献   

Investigation of the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Novel Semi-Submersible Platform with Multiple Small Columns     

SONG Xiancang  WANG Shuqing  LI Huajun  LI Tao 《中国海洋大学学报(英文版)》2019,(1):108-122

This paper presents a novel semi-submersible(SEMI) platform concept, called the multiple small columns(MSC) SEMI that improves upon the hydrodynamic performance of the conventional SEMI. Unlike the conventional SEMI, the proposed MSC SEMI utilizes multiple small circular columns to support the deck and a large pontoon that increases the structural displacement. The novelty of the MSC SEMI is its reduction of the hydrodynamic load on the structure and suppression of its motion response, particularly in the heave direction. The MSC SEMI has the advantages of increasing the added mass, radiation damping, and natural period of the structure. A comprehensive investigation of the hydrodynamic performance of the novel MSC SEMI is conducted in both the time and frequency domains with a special focus on the resulting hydrodynamic load and motion response. Numerical simulation results demonstrate that the MSC SEMI concept can reduce the hydrodynamic load and motion response and improve the hydrodynamic performance of SEMIs as expected.  相似文献   

DEM analysis of granular crushing during simple shearing     

Sihong Liu  Chaomin Shen 《Marine Georesources & Geotechnology》2018,36(5):522-531

In this study, simple shear tests on breakable polydisperse granular materials were simulated using two-dimensional discrete element method (DEM). A new technique of generating polydisperse DEM samples with a smooth and continuous particle size distribution curve was proposed. A modified breakage criterion was introduced to reflect the contact force anisotropy of particles in the numerical sample. The simulation results showed that during the simple shearing, grain crushing in the sample mainly occurred in the contraction process and decreased gradually when the sample began to dilate. As the shearing proceeded to a larger strain, the grain crushing tended to a stable value. This grain crushing trend was in accordance with the evolution of the average normal contact forces of particles in the sample during shearing. The average normal contact forces of potential breakage particles increased in the contraction process and decreased in the dilatancy process. A decrease in the average normal contact forces of potential breakage particles resulted in the decrease in grain crushing during the later stage of shearing.  相似文献   

Earthquake response of a multiblock nuclear reactor graphite core: Experimental model vs simulations          下载免费PDF全文

The complex dynamics of a quarter‐scale model of a graphite nuclear reactor core, representative of the second generation of British advanced gas‐cooled nuclear reactors, is investigated numerically and experimentally. Advanced gas‐cooled nuclear reactor cores are polygonal, multilayer, arrays of graphite bricks, with each brick allowed to rock by design relative to each other in accordance with the boundary conditions. A 35 000 DOF, nonlinear finite element model of the core created by Atkins Nuclear, was analysed on a high performance computing facility at the University of Bristol, and a corresponding 8 t physical model, equipped with 3200 data acquisition channels, was built and tested on the University of Bristol 6‐DOF shaking table. In this paper, the two models are subjected to a series of (1) synthetic earthquake and (2) idealised harmonic input motions. The experimental data are used to compare and verify the two models and explore the dynamics of the core. A kinematic model of the response is also developed based solely on geometric constraints. The results are presented in the form of response maps and graphs. Important conclusions are drawn as to the dynamics and earthquake response of such systems, which inform numerical model validation. It is found that contrary to the case of a small number of rocking blocks that exhibit highly complex response patterns, the behaviour of the model at hand is both smooth and repeatable. An analogy between the response of the core and that of dense granular matter exhibiting particle interlocking and dilatancy is highlighted.  相似文献

为研究远场长周期地震动作用下SRC柱的抗震性能,对5个不同含钢率和配箍率的SRC柱进行同级位移循环加载10次的拟静力试验,分析其抗震性能指标。结果表明:同级位移循环次数对SRC柱抗震性能的影响与循环位移幅值有关。位移角不大于1/50时,同级位移循环次数对SRC柱的裂缝发展、承载力退化和耗能能力的影响均很小;位移角1/40时,随着位移循环次数的增加,SRC柱的裂缝不断发展,角部混凝土逐渐掉落,承载力退化幅度开始加大,耗能能力逐渐增强,损伤程度增长较快;位移角1/33时,同级位移多次循环导致SRC柱的损伤急剧发展,承载力快速降低,耗能能力明显增强,破坏程度显著加重。提高含钢率和配箍率均可以改善SRC柱的抗震性能。  相似文献

Development of collapse-consistent loading protocols for experimental testing of steel columns     

Yusuke Suzuki  Dimitrios G. Lignos 《地震工程与结构动力学》2020,49(2):114-131

In order to effectively utilize results from quasi-static cyclic testing on structural components for the earthquake-induced collapse risk quantification of structures, the need exists to establish collapse-consistent loading protocols representing the asymmetric lateral drift demands of structures under low-probability of occurrence earthquakes. This paper summarizes the development of such protocols for experimental testing of steel columns prone to inelastic local buckling. The protocols are fully defined with a deformation- and a force-controlled parameter. They are generally applicable to quantify the capacity and demands of steel columns experiencing constant and variable axial load coupled with lateral drift demands. Through rigorous nonlinear earthquake collapse simulations, it is found that the building height, the column's local slenderness ratio, and ground motion type have the largest influence on the dual-parameter loading protocol indexes. Comprehensive comparisons with measured data from full-scale shake table collapse tests suggest that unlike routinely used symmetric cyclic loading histories, the proposed loading protocol provides sufficient information for modeling strength and stiffness deterioration in steel columns at large inelastic deformations.  相似文献
