Dynamic response of structures subjected to pounding and structure–soil–structure interaction     

《Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering》2015

During strong earthquakes, adjacent structures with non-sufficient clear distances collide with each other. In addition to such a pounding, cross interaction of adjacent structures through soil can exchange the vibration energy between buildings and make the problem even more complex. In this paper, effects of both of the mentioned phenomena on the inelastic response of selected steel structures are studied. Number of stories varied between 3 and 12 and different clear distances up to the seismic codes prescribed value are considered. The pounding element is modeled within Opensees. A coupled model of springs and dashpots is utilized for through-the-soil interaction of the adjacent structures, for two types of soft soils. The pounding force, relative displacements of stories, story shears, and plastic hinge rotations are compared for different conditions as the maximum responses averaged between seven consistent earthquakes. As a result, simultaneous effects of pounding and structure–soil–structure interaction are discussed.  相似文献

基于钢悬链式立管(SCR)动力分析程序CABLE3D,采用大挠度柔性梁理论建立SCR的运动方程,将线性海床模型扩展为考虑海床土吸力的非线性海床模型,采用非线性有限元方法对控制方程进行离散,时域内积分采用Newmark-β法,开发出新的计算程序。通过算例分析上部浮体垂荡运动幅值、海床土剪切强度、海床土剪切强度梯度对SCR触地点区域动力响应和疲劳损伤的影响。分析结果表明:SCR触地点区域动力响应和疲劳损伤对上部浮体垂荡运动幅值和海床土剪切强度的变化较为敏感,疲劳损伤在触地点区域最大,远大于悬垂段和流线段,在设计过程中应采取一定的加强措施。  相似文献   

Dynamic structure–soil–structure interaction between nearby piled buildings under seismic excitation by BEM–FEM model

The dynamic through–soil interaction between nearby pile supported structures in a viscoelastic half-space, under incident S and Rayleigh waves, is numerically studied. To this end, a three-dimensional viscoelastic BEM–FEM formulation for the dynamic analysis of piles and pile groups in the frequency domain is used, where soil is modelled by BEM and piles are simulated by one-dimensional finite elements as Bernoulli beams. This formulation has been enhanced to include the presence of linear superstructures founded on pile groups, so that structure–soil–structure interaction (SSSI) can be investigated making use of a direct methodology with an affordable number of degrees of freedom. The influence of SSSI on lateral spectral deformation, vertical and rotational response, and shear forces at pile heads, for several configurations of shear one-storey buildings, is addressed. Maximum response spectra are also presented. SSSI effects on groups of structures with similar dynamic characteristics have been found to be important. The system response can be either amplified or attenuated according to the distance between adjacent buildings, which has been related to dynamic properties of the overall system.  相似文献
