考虑SSI效应的15×10~4 m~3储罐基础隔震数值仿真分析

为考虑土与结构相互作用(SSI)对15×104m3大型立式储罐基础隔震效应的影响,采用弹簧-阻尼系统模拟地基土和隔震层,罐壁及底板采用壳单元,流体采用势流体单元,利用ADINA建立15×104m3储罐有限元模型,在峰值加速度0.2g El Centro波地震激励下,应用Newmark数值积分方法进行地震响应分析,结果表明:考虑SSI效应时,非隔震储罐的地震响应有所减小,而基础隔震时地震响应有放大效应。储罐抗震减震设计时,中软地基土上储罐从结构设计安全角度来说需要考虑土与结构的相互作用。     

考虑桩土作用的储罐模拟地震振动台试验

为研究考虑桩土相互作用的储液罐的动力响应及长周期地震波对储液晃动、储罐提离的影响,根据量纲分析法设计了桩-土-储罐模型进行了振动台试验。试验中采用4条基岩波、4条地表波进行振动台试验。试验显示基岩波与地表波输入时,体系变化规律基本一致,其结果表明:土体地表加速度被放大,且输入加速度峰值增加,地表加速度放大倍数减小;一般地震波时,随着输入加速度峰值的增加,储液晃动波高大致呈线性增加。长周期地震波下则为非线性增加,且晃动波较大。此外,液体产生的晃动波高与储罐类型相关。细高型储罐产生的波高稍大;储罐提离高度随着输入加速度峰值的增加呈非线性增长。长周期地震波激励下,储罐提离高度小于一般地震波时的提离高度。细高型储罐在长短周期地震波激励下,提离高度较为接近,而一般储罐在两种地震波激励下,提离高度相差较大。细高型储罐提离高度大于一般储罐的提离高度。建议在储罐设计时考虑长周期地震波的影响。     

土与结构相互作用对储罐地震响应的影响

为了研究土与结构相互作用对储罐地震响应的影响,基于Haroun-Housner模型,将地基土考虑为平动和转动的弹簧阻尼体系,将储罐结构体系简化为三质点四自由度力学模型,来研究储罐的地震响应受地基土弹性的影响。分析结果表明:与刚性基础相比,考虑土与结构的相互作用时储罐的基底剪力、倾覆力矩和晃动波高均有放大效应,且与储液高度与半径比相关,为获得理想的地震响应储液高度与半径比存在优化取值区间。     

深厚软弱地基上桩箱基础高层建筑地震反应特性数值模拟

根据土体—结构体系整体分析方法，以某26层桩箱基础框架—剪力墙高层建筑为例，探讨了深厚软弱地基与输入地震动特性对桩箱基础高层建筑地震反应的影响。通过数值模拟，得到以下结论：地震作用下高层建筑的地震反应与建筑物的地基条件与输入的振动特性等因素有关。一般地，SSI效应使上部结构的绝对加速度反应减小，但当输入加速度峰值较低时，建筑物部分楼层的绝对加速度反应有可能增大。在给定的输入地震动作用下，SSI效应使上部结构的楼层相对位移增大，但也可能存在减小的情况。分析结果表明：SSI效应对深厚软弱地基上桩箱基础高层建筑地震反应有很大的影响，在此类建筑的抗震分析中考虑SSI效应的影响是必要的。

基于卡尔曼滤波的振动台子结构试验方法研究

振动台子结构试验是一种有效的实时结构混合试验方法,持续受到国内外学者的关注。利用振动台和其它加载装置进行联合加载,从而提升和扩展振动台的加载能力,实现大比例甚至足尺结构试验的目的。基于主动质量驱动器(AMD)加载方法的振动台子结构试验中,在试验子结构和数值子结构完全拆分的情况下,无论采用位移PID还是三参量控制,在界面加速度输入情况下AMD系统在3～5 min后会产生失稳现象,通过调整控制增益、对加速度反馈信号进行滤波无法消除这种现象。在加速度传感器噪声的影响下,子结构试验系统无法保持长期稳定,通过数值仿真表明现有的时滞补偿算法也无法消除这种失稳现象。考虑这种情况,将卡尔曼滤波引入界面加速度的量测环节,通过整体结构模型求得的界面加速度对实测界面加速度进行修正,从而提升了振动台子结构试验的系统稳定性和试验精度。数值仿真结果表明,通过设置合理的卡尔曼滤波参数,可以抑制加速度传感器随机噪声对子结构试验精度的影响,系统时滞稳定性也得到显著改善。文中的研究结果为振动台子结构试验的成功实施提供了一种可行的解决方案。

Real-time dynamic hybrid testing for soil–structure interaction analysis

Simulating dynamic soil–structure interaction (SSI) problems is a challenge when using a shaking table because of the semi-infinity of soil foundations. This paper develops real-time dynamic hybrid testing (RTDHT) for SSI problems in order to consider the radiation damping effect of the semi-infinite soil foundation using a shaking table. Based on the substructure concept, the superstructure is physically tested and the semi-infinite foundation is numerically simulated. Thus, the response of the entire system considering the dynamic SSI is obtained by coupling the numerical calculation of the soil and the physical test of the superstructure. A two-story shear frame on a rigid foundation was first tested to verify the developed RTDHT system, in which the top story was modeled as the physical substructure and the bottom story was the numerical substructure. The RTDHT for a two-story structure mounted on soil foundation was then carried out on a shaking table while the foundation was numerically simulated using a lumped parameter model. The dynamic responses, including acceleration and shear force, were obtained under soft and hard soil conditions. The results show that the soil–structure interaction should be reasonably taken into account in the shaking table testing for structures.

Numerical simulation of dynamic soil–structure interaction in shaking table testing

This paper provides an insight into the numerical simulation of soil–structure interaction (SSI) phenomena studied in a shaking table facility. The shaking table test is purposely designed to confirm the ability of the numerical substructure technique to simulate the SSI phenomenon. A model foundation–structure system with strong SSI potential is embedded in a dry bed of sand deposited within a purpose designed shaking-table soil container. The experimental system is subjected to a strong ground motion. The numerical simulation of the complete soil–foundation–structure system is conducted in the linear viscoelastic domain using the substructure approach. The matching of the experimental and numerical responses in both frequency and in time domain is satisfying. Many important aspects of SSI that are apparent in the experiment are captured by the numerical simulation. Furthermore, the numerical modelling is shown to be adequate for practical engineering design purposes.

Investigation of the dynamic behaviour of a storage tank with different foundation types focusing on the soil‐foundation‐structure interactions using centrifuge model tests

This paper proposes a dynamic centrifuge model test method for the accurate simulation of the behaviours of a liquid storage tank with different types of foundations during earthquakes. The method can be used to determine the actual stress conditions of a prototype storage‐tank structure. It was used in the present study to investigate the soil‐foundation‐structure interactions of a simplified storage tank under two different earthquake motions, which were simulated using a shaking table installed in a centrifuge basket. Three different types of foundations were considered, namely, a shallow foundation, a slab on the surface of the ground connected to piles and a slab with disconnected piles. The test results were organised to compare the ground surface and foundation motions, the slab of foundation and top of structure motions and the horizontal and vertical motions of the slab, respectively. These were used to establish the complex dynamic behaviours of tank models with different foundations. The effects of soil–foundation–structure interaction with three foundation conditions and two different earthquake motions are focused and some important factors, that should be considered for future designs are also discussed in this research.

Investigation of nonlinear sloshing effects in seismically excited tanks

Nonlinear behavior of liquid sloshing inside a partially filled rectangular tank is investigated. The nonlinearity in the numerical modeling of the liquid sloshing originates from the nonlinear terms of the governing equations of the fluid flow and the liquid free surface motion as a not known boundary condition. The numerical simulations are performed for both linear and nonlinear conditions. The computed results using linear conditions are compared with readily available exact solution. In order to verify the results of the nonlinear numerical solution, a series of the shaking table tests on rectangular tank were conducted. Having verified linear and nonlinear numerical models, they are used for computation of near wall sloshing height at a series of real scale tanks (with various dimensions) under the both harmonic and earthquake base excitation. Finally, the nonlinear effects on liquid sloshing modeling are discussed and the practical limitations of the linear solution in evaluating the response of seismically excited liquids are also addressed.     

Effects of site dynamic characteristics on soil–structure interaction (II): Incident P and SV waves

In-plane, dynamic soil–structure interaction (SSI) for incident-plane P and SV waves is analyzed for a two-dimensional (2D) model of a shear wall on a rigid foundation that is embedded in a soil layer over bedrock. The indirect-boundary-element method (IBEM) and non-singular Green's functions of distributed loads on inclined lines are used to solve the problem. Although this in-plane, dynamic SSI problem displays characteristics similar to those of 2D, out-of-plane, dynamic SSI, which was studied in our previous work, there exist some significant differences. In analyses of the SSI of the full-scale structures, which recorded strong earthquake shaking, our interpretations are often based on the peaks in the transfer functions of observed structural response. It is shown in this paper how the amplitudes and the frequencies of those peaks are affected by the relative rigidity and thichness of the soil layer below the foundation.     

Substructure shake table test method using a controlled mass: formulation and numerical simulation

This study proposes a new substructure shake table test method that allows for experimental investigation of the lower portion of structures while the upper part is numerically analyzed. Compatibility conditions are derived to ensure that the dynamic characteristics of the substructured system are equivalent to the reference entire structure. This method utilizes controlled masses to incorporate interface forces from the computational substructure to the experimental substructure. A feasible implementation procedure for the interface force compatibility is developed using a series of conversions and signal processing. For validation of the capabilities and limitations of the proposed substructure method, numerical simulations are performed using detailed models including dynamics of the controlled mass systems. Results from the numerical simulations showed that the proposed substructure method produced comparable results to the reference entire simulations. The average error between top floor displacements produced by substructured and entire responses for earthquake inputs was 7.1%. Numerical studies showed that the substructure method has potential to serve as an alternative to shaking table tests of entire structures. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
