Flexibility of superstructures and supports in the seismic analysis of simple bridges

This paper addresses the elastic dynamic response of simply supported bridges to ground motion in their transverse direction. The interaction between superstructure and support flexibilities is studied in a systematic manner for symmetric spans. The bridges are modelled as beams with uniformly distributed mass and elasticity, simply supported at the ends by elastic springs. It is shown that a dimensionless stiffness index, which reflects the relative stiffness of the superstructure compared to the stiffness of the substructure, completely defines the dynamic mode shapes of the model. Useful closed‐form expressions, based on approximate shape functions, are derived for the dynamic parameters of the first mode, and their accuracy is assessed. The effect of the stiffness index on these dynamic parameters is investigated. Numerical case studies are presented to illustrate the use of proposed equations in the seismic analysis of bridges.

Base isolation for near‐fault motions

Three analytical studies of base‐isolated structures are carried out. First, six pairs of near‐fault motions oriented in directions parallel and normal to the fault were considered, and the average of the response spectra of these earthquake records was obtained. This study shows that in addition to pulse‐type displacements, these motions contain significant energy at high frequencies and that the real and pseudo‐velocity spectra are quite different. The second analysis modelled the response of a model of an isolated structure with a flexible superstructure to study the effect of isolation damping on the performance of different isolation systems under near‐fault motion. The results show that there exists a value of isolation system damping for which the superstructure acceleration for a given structural system attains a minimum value under near‐fault motion. Therefore, although increasing the bearing damping beyond a certain value may decrease the bearing displacement, it may transmit higher accelerations into the superstructure. Finally, the behaviour of four isolation systems subjected to the normal component of each of the near‐fault motions were studied, showing that EDF type isolation systems may be the optimum choice for the design of isolated structures in near‐fault locations.

Seismic behavior of variable frequency pendulum isolator

Earthquake performance of a flexible one-story building isolated with a variable frequency pendulum isolator （VFPI） under near-fault and far-field ground motions is investigated. The frictional forces mobilized at the interface of the VFPI are assumed to be velocity dependent. The interaction between frictional forces of the VFPI in two horizontal directions is duly considered and coupled differential equations of motion of the isolated system in the incremental form are solved iteratively. The response of the system with bi-directional interaction is compared with those without interaction. In addition, the effects of velocity dependence on the response of the isolated system are also investigated. Moreover, a parametric study is carried out to critically examine the influence of important parameters on bi-directional interaction effects of the frictional forces of the VFPI. These parameters are： the superstructure time period, frequency variation factor （FVF） and friction coefficient of the VFPI. From the above investigations, it is observed that the dependence of the friction coefficient on relative velocity of the system does not have a noticeable effect on the peak response of the system isolated with VFPI, and that the bi-directional interaction of frictional forces of the VFPI is important and if neglected, isolator displacements will be underestimated and the superstructure acceleration and base shear will be overestimated.     

Parametric analysis of eccentric structure–soil interaction system based on branch mode decoupling method

In order to carry out parametric analysis of eccentric structure–soil interaction system, an analytical model based on branch mode decoupling method is presented in this paper. The solution of system equations is implemented in the frequency domain by assuming that the superstructure maintains classic normal modes. The transfer functions of translational and torsional response are derived later. The influence of eccentricity ratio, torsional to translational frequency ratio, height-to-base ratio and foundation flexibility on the curve and peak value of transfer functions and torsionally coupled degree are analyzed and discussed systematically. Results of analysis indicate that the flexibility of foundation soil can weaken the torsional response of superstructure substantially, and the natural frequencies of interaction system reduce as the flexibility of foundation soil increase. The influence of eccentricity ratio on the peak values of transfer functions varies with the torsional to translational frequency ratio, which can be summarized as the decrease of translational component and the increase of torsional component. The translational displacement of SSI system is larger than that of fixed-base condition, while the deformation amplitude is notably reduced. The torsional response decreases as well. As the height-to-base ratio increase, the varying tendency of response is further enhanced. The torsionally coupled degree of eccentric structure is remarkably affected by the torsional to translational frequency ratio, which is significantly reduced under soft soil condition.

Active control of irregular buildings considering soil–structure interaction effects

This paper analyzes the soil–structure interaction (SSI) effect on vibration control effectiveness of active tendon systems for an irregular building, modeled as a torsionally coupled (TC) structure, subjected to base excitations such as those induced by earthquakes. An H_∞ direct output feedback control algorithm through minimizing the entropy, a performance index measuring the trade-off between H_∞ optimality and H₂ optimality, is implemented to reduce the seismic responses of TC structures. The control forces are calculated directly from the multiplication of the output measurements by a pre-calculated frequency-independent and time-invariant feedback gain matrix, which is obtained based on a fixed-base model. Numerical simulation results show that the required numbers of sensors, controllers and their installation locations depend highly on the degree of floor eccentricity. For a large two-way eccentric building, a one-way active tendon system placed in one of two frames farthest away from the center of resistance (C.R.) can reduce both translational and torsional responses. The SSI effect is governed by the slenderness ratio of superstructure and by the stiffness ratio of soil to superstructure. When the SSI effect is significant, the proposed control system can still reduce the structural responses, however, with less effectiveness than that of the assumed fixed-base model. Therefore, the TC and SSI effects should be considered in the design of active control devices, especially for high-rise buildings located on soft site.     

Out-of-plane (SH) soil-structure interaction: a shear wall with rigid and flexible ring foundation

Soil-structure interaction (SSI) of a building and shear wall above a foundation in an elastic half-space has long been an important research subject for earthquake engineers and strong-motion seismologists. Numerous papers have been published since the early 1970s; however, very few of these papers have analytic closed-form solutions available. The soil-structure interaction problem is one of the most classic problems connecting the two disciplines of earthquake engineering and civil engineering. The interaction effect represents the mechanism of energy transfer and dissipation among the elements of the dynamic system, namely the soil subgrade, foundation, and superstructure. This interaction effect is important across many structure, foundation, and subgrade types but is most pronounced when a rigid superstructure is founded on a relatively soft lower foundation and subgrade. This effect may only be ignored when the subgrade is much harder than a flexible superstructure: for instance a flexible moment frame superstructure founded on a thin compacted soil layer on top of very stiff bedrock below. This paper will study the interaction effect of the subgrade and the superstructure. The analytical solution of the interaction of a shear wall, flexible-rigid foundation, and an elastic half-space is derived for incident SH waves with various angles of incidence. It found that the flexible ring (soft layer) cannot be used as an isolation mechanism to decouple a superstructure from its substructure resting on a shaking half-space.

Piles-induced filtering effect on the Foundation Input Motion

The inertial interaction analysis of a structure founded on piles is conventionally performed by imposing that the Foundation Input Motion is merely that of the free field, thus neglecting the kinematic interaction between piles and soil generated by the passage of seismic waves. This would lead to unnecessary overconservatism in the design, as there is evidence that the free-field motion may be thoroughly filtered out by piles (generally reduced), especially in the case of soft soils, where piles are recurrently required to carry out the total load transmitted by the superstructure and/or to reduce foundation settlements. Results provided from analytical and numerical tools elucidate the crucial aspects controlling the mechanism of filtering effect. Reduced design spectra are also suggested to account for the beneficial effect coming from the piles when the inertial interaction analysis of the superstructure is being performed.
