铅芯叠层橡胶支座恢复力模型研究

在Wen和Park模型的基础上,对铅芯叠层橡胶支座单向和双向耦合恢复力模型进行了改进,使其可以更为准确的模拟铅芯叠层橡胶支座单向和双向耦合的滞回性能。并由计算分析可以看出,考虑双向耦合作用与未考虑双向耦合作用的恢复力滞回曲线有较大差别,因而支座应采用双向耦合恢复力模型以考虑支座的双向耦合作用对结构地震反应的影响。     

不规则框架结构的组合隔震反应分析

为研究不规则框架隔震结构的地震反应,分别对一个传统抗震结构、一个铅芯叠层橡胶支座隔震结构和四个组合隔震结构(隔震层由铅芯支座和滑板支座组成)进行了弹塑性地震反应时程分析,研究隔震支座参数对隔震效果的影响。结果表明:采用组合隔震技术时,合理选择隔震层的铅芯支座布置位置、滑板支座的摩擦系数和铅芯叠层橡胶支座的型号,可以有效地降低上部结构的扭转效应;对于不规则的建筑隔震结构,为减小地面运动带来的扭转效应,建议采用由铅芯支座和滑板支座组合而成的隔震层,可对上部结构的扭转起到很好的抑制作用。

摩擦摆基础隔震结构多维地震反应分析

对摩擦摆基础隔震结构进行了单向、双向和三向地震反应对比分析,表明考虑双向水平地震动时摩擦摆基础隔震结构的支座位移增大,而结构的加速度和楼层剪力减小,其中对支座位移和结构加速度影响较大;考虑竖向地震动时摩擦摆基础隔震结构的支座位移略有减小,而结构的加速度和楼层剪力增大,其中对结构加速度影响较大.因而,在进行摩擦摆基础隔震结构地震反应分析时,应考虑多维地震动的影响.     

SMA绞线-叠层橡胶复合支座振动台试验研究

对一组SMA绞线-叠层橡胶复合支座进行了振动台试验。根据试验结果比较分析了SMA绞线-叠层橡胶复合支座与普通叠层橡胶支座的隔震性能,着重分析了位移幅值对支座工作性能基本参数如等效水平刚度、最大恢复力、单位循环耗能和等效阻尼比的影响以及这些参数的变化规律。从而证明了在罕遇地震作用下发生较大水平位移幅值时,SMA绞线-叠层橡胶复合支座比普通叠层橡胶支座可提供更大的恢复力和阻尼,更有利于阻隔地震对上部结构的作用和强震作用后上部结构的自动复位。     

脉冲型地震动作用下隔震结构动力响应的影响参数研究

通过对隔震结构进行非线性动力响应分析,分别研究地震动参数和支座参数对结构地震响应的影响。首先,建立铅芯橡胶支座基础隔震结构的非线性运动方程;然后,以人工合成脉冲型地震动作为输入,运用MATLAB进行编程并求解结构在脉冲型地震动作用下的地震响应;最后,分别研究速度脉冲周期、支座屈服力、屈服后与屈服前的刚度比对隔震支座最大位移和上部结构层间位移的影响。研究结果表明,脉冲周期对结构地震响应影响很大,在进行隔震设计时应使结构自振周期远离脉冲周期;支座刚度比对结构地震响应影响较大,在进行支座选型时应重点关注;支座屈服力对支座位移的影响显著,屈服力越大,支座位移越小。     

LRB隔震储罐地震反应的双向耦合效应

建立了双向地震作用下LRB基础隔震储罐地震反应的数值模型,对单向和双向地震作用下隔震储罐的地震反应和隔震支座的力学性能进行了对比研究。提出了衡量双向耦合效应影响的评价指标,分析了不同类型场地上隔震储罐地震反应的双向耦合效应影响规律。研究表明,双向耦合效应使支座滞回曲线变得不规则,呈现出粘滞特性。双向耦合效应不会引起隔震储罐基底剪力、弯矩、晃动波高的明显增大,但忽视双向耦合效应会严重低估支座位移,尤其是在II类和IV类场地上更为明显。因此在LRB隔震储罐双向地震反应分析时,不能简单选取两个单向地震作用下响应的组合值作为地震响应值,必须考虑双向耦合效应的影响。     

隔震与非隔震支座对混凝土箱梁桥地震易损性的影响

为评估隔震和非隔震支座对桥梁地震易损性的影响,以一座3跨连续混凝土箱梁桥为分析对象,首先建立采用铅芯橡胶隔震支座与非隔震型盆式橡胶支座下桥梁的数值模型,求得不同程度地震作用下墩顶与支座的最大位移响应;再定义转角延性比损伤指标,结合支座剪应变,分析桥墩和支座的地震易损性情况;最后通过宽界限法建立全桥地震易损性曲线。研究结果表明,支座是较容易发生损坏的构件,而桥梁系统比桥墩或支座更易发生破坏,同时铅芯橡胶支座的破坏概率明显低于非隔震型盆式支座,可见采用隔震支座能有效减小桥墩墩顶在地震作用下的最大位移,此时桥墩地震易损性优于采用非隔震支座的情况。

隔震结构在远震场地减震效果良好，但是近断层地震动的明显的长周期速度和位移脉冲运动可能对隔震建筑等长周期结构的抗震性能和设计带来不利影响，需要深入探讨。本文首先讨论近断层地震动的长周期脉冲运动特征，然后以台湾集集地震8条典型近震记录和其它4条常用近震记录以及4条远震记录作为地震动输入，对两幢安装铅芯橡胶隔震支座的钢筋混凝土框架隔震结构进行非线性地震反应时程分析，通过比较探讨了算例计算结果，定量说明隔震结构的近震脉冲效应显著，是隔震设计不容忽视的问题。

Mechanical behavior of lead rubber bearings under and after nonproportional plane loading

Lead rubber bearings, which have been extensively applied in many seismic isolation designs for buildings, infrastructures, and facilities worldwide, were tested under unilateral reversal loading as well as nonproportional plane loading including circular, figure-eight, and square orbits in this study. The test results indicate that unlike the unilateral hysteretic behavior, the bilateral one of lead rubber bearings is too complicated to be characterized adequately by a simplified bilinear hysteretic model. It is mainly attributed to the bilateral coupling effect, which can be clearly observed from the abnormal deformation of the mesh pattern drawn on the rubber cover during the tests. In addition, after being subjected to nonproportional plane loading, the tested bearings reveal visible permanent twisting deformation. The profiles of the cut bearings present the fracture of the inside lead plugs. Even so, the further unilateral reversal loading test results prove that the fracture might not affect the whole hysteretic behavior and mechanical properties very much. The applicability, robustness, and generalization of adopting three previously developed analytical models for describing the coupled bilateral hysteretic behavior of lead rubber bearings are further demonstrated by comparing their predictions with the nonproportional plane loading test results. Although the coefficients are identified from unilateral reversal loading tests, the three analytical models can still have an acceptable prediction capability.     

AN ANALYTICAL HYSTERESIS MODEL FOR ELASTOMERIC SEISMIC ISOLATION BEARINGS

For the purpose of accurately predicting the seismic response of base-isolated structures, an analytical hysteresis model for elastomeric seismic isolation bearings is proposed. An extensive series of experimental tests of four types of seismic isolation bearings—two types of high-damping rubber bearings, one type of lead-rubber bearing and one type of silicon rubber bearing—was carried out with the objective of fully identifying their mechanical characteristics. The proposed model is capable of well-predicting the mechanical properties of each type of elastomeric bearing into the large strain range. Earthquake simulator tests were also conducted after the loading tests of the individual bearings. In order to show the validity of the proposed model, non-linear dynamic analyses were conducted to simulate the earthquake simulator test results. Good agreement between the experimental and analytical results shows that the model can be an effective numerical tool to predict not only the peak response value but also the force–displacement relationship of the isolators and floor response spectra for isolated structures. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Seismic response of base-isolated structures with vertical-rocking coupling

A base-isolated building is liable to have a small horizontal eccentricity between the centre of mass of the superstructure and the centre of rigidity of the supporting bearings. In seismic analysis, the structure is modelled as a rigid block with tributary masses supported on massless elastomeric rubber bearings placed at a constant elevation below the centre of mass. This simplified system has three degrees of freedom: two translations and one rotation in the vertical plane. The investigation of the dynamic behaviour of a base-isolated building is carried out for both the detuned and the perfectly tuned cases. In the detuned case, the natural frequencies of the system are assumed to be well separated. In the perfectly tuned case, the uncoupled rocking frequency is assumed to be identical to the vertical translational frequency, which may result from an unusual mass distribution and/or an extreme aspect ratio of the superstructure. Perturbation methods are implemented in finding the dynamic characteristics for both cases. However, the dynamic response of the perfectly tuned case is the major concern in this investigation. The Green's functions for the displacement response of the three-degree-of-freedom system are derived for both the undamped and damped conditions. The response spectrum modal superposition method is used in estimating the maximum acceleration response. A simple method, accounting for the effect of closely spaced modes, is proposed for combining modal maxima and results in an approximate solution corresponding to a single-degree-of-freedom system. This approximate solution may be used for the preliminary design of a base-isolated structure. Numerical results for a base-isolated building subjected to the vertical component of the El Centro earthquake of 1940 were carried out for comparison with these analytical results. The proposed modal combination method showed superiority over the conventional Square Root of the Sum of the Squares method in estimating maximum responses. The results also indicated that the approximate single-degree-of-freedom system yields accurate estimations. It is shown that the effect of rocking coupling on the vertical response of base-isolated structures subjected to transient loadings, such as earthquake motions, can generally be neglected as a result of the combined effects of the time lag between the maximum translational and rotational responses and the influence of damping in the isolation system, which for elastomeric bearings can be as high as 8 to 10 per cent of critical.     

考虑温度影响的LRB隔震建筑地震响应分析

为研究温度对铅芯橡胶支座(LRB)性能的影响,进行支座拟静力试验。试验表明,在不同温度环境中试件的滞回曲线明显不同,支座的刚度和屈服剪力均随温度的升高而降低;低温时,支座的力学特性变化较大,而当温度大于20℃时,支座的力学特性趋于稳定。以某五层基础隔震建筑为例,编写基础隔震结构非线性时程分析程序NBIS,计算该隔震建筑在考虑温度影响后的地震响应。结果表明,在多遇地震作用下支座恢复力随温度的升高而降低,与罕遇地震下的变化趋势相反;考虑LRB温度影响后,该基础隔震结构的减震系数随环境温度的降低而增大,支座的最大位移随温度升高而增大。
