轻型木结构在地震作用下的性能已有了一定的研究基础,但轻木混合结构的抗震性能研究尚未得到充分认识。本文重点介绍了首次进行的3层轻木-混凝土混合结构振动台试验,试验房屋下部一层为钢筋混凝土框架结构,上部二层为对称轻型木结构,模型平面尺寸为6.1m×3.7m。对5个上下抗侧刚度比不同的足尺模型,采用3种地震动沿房屋纵向激振,峰值加速度依次为0.1g~0.5g。每次激振后测定房屋自振频率及对应的阻尼,各层加速度和水平位移,木结构底部与混凝土结构顶部之间竖向相对位移以及螺栓锚固力等。试验结果表明:(1)轻木-混凝土混合结构具有良好的抗震性能;(2)上部木结构与底层混凝土结构间连接可靠;(3)5个模型的振动均以第1振型为主,但对于刚度比大的模型,下部混凝土结构的2阶振动较明显;(4)刚度比大的模型其地震反应小于刚度比小的模型。

Full-scale hybrid test for realistic verification of a seismic upgrading technique of RC frames by BRBs

Scientific research proposing any type of device/technique for seismic protection of buildings is generally based on numerical models that adopt simplifications to make possible extensive analyses. This means that important details of the inelastic response could be neglected. Following this consideration, regardless of the device/technique invented, before it could be put into practice, an experimental verification of the actual structural performance should be conducted by full-scale tests at building level. This issue is investigated in the paper considering seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures by buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) as technique to be validated, while hybrid test is selected as tool for experimental validation at building level. The analysed seismic upgrading technique consists in the insertion of BRBs into the RC frame. The upgrading intervention is designed by a method developed in previous studies. This technique responds to an important need of the society. Indeed, existing RC frames showed high vulnerability in occurrence of past earthquakes when they were not originally conceived to sustain horizontal forces. The hybrid test is selected among the available experimental techniques because it allows the experimentation on full-scale specimens with reasonable cost. In this study, a substructure hybrid test was conducted and the results are here presented to (a) evaluate the effectiveness of the design method of BRBs for seismic upgrading, (b) investigate the integration of BRBs in existing RC frame, and (c) show the potentiality of the substructure hybrid test for the experimental verification of innovative techniques for seismic protection of buildings.     

Tuned inerter dampers with linear hysteretic damping

This paper explores the influence of linear hysteretic damping on the performance of passive tuned-inerter devices. An inerter is a device that produces a force proportional to the relative acceleration across its two terminals; devices incorporating inerters have received widespread attention in the earthquake engineering community, because they offer the ability to improve the seismic response of structures. However, the majority of this research has assumed that the damping components within the tuned-inerter device exhibit viscous, rather than hysteretic, damping. This restriction imposes an essential question on how the hysteretic damping model will change the performance of the device compared with the viscous damping model. It is shown that the response of viscous and hysteretic inerter systems have significant differences in displacement amplitude due to the frequency dependency of the damping. Therefore, a new formulation for obtaining the optimum loss factor of the hysteretic damping in the inerter system is proposed. Next, the challenges associated with accurately predicting the time-response of a hysteretically damped system are discussed. A numerical time-integration method is extended to address these challenges, using a new formulation that has the benefit of being broadly applicable to multidegree-of-freedom hysteretic linear systems and nonstationary random signals. The results show that the earthquake responses from the hysteretic damping model can differ significantly from the ones obtained via the viscous model.     

Experimental verification of building control using active bracing system

The objective of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of some control algorithms which will be implemented through experimental verification of a seismic-excited full-scale building. A full-scale 3-storey steel building with active bracing control system was tested at a three-dimensional shaking table of NCREE, Taiwan. The active bracing control system was installed at the first floor. Three different control algorithms were used for the experimental verification: static-output-feedback LQR control, modal control with direct output feedback, and static-output-feedback with variable gain. It is concluded that within the maximum capacity of the actuator in the experiment all the three control algorithms performed well and almost 50 per cent of displacement as well as the acceleration of each floor response was reduced.

Energy dissipation behaviour of shear panels made of low yield steel

This paper presents the results of a pilot test conducted for evaluating the energy dissipation behaviour of shear panels made of low yield steel whose 0.2 per cent offset yield stress is 120 MPa. A total of six full-scale shear panels were tested with the loading condition, stiffener spacing, and magnitude of axial force as test variables. The shear panels tested yielded at a shear force that is approximately 1/3 of the yield shear force of equivalent shear panels made of common mild steel. Shear panels with proper stiffener arrangement exhibited stable hysteresis, thus ensuring large energy dissipation capacity. Sufficient strain hardening was observed in the shear panels tested, with their energy dissipation capacity about 1.5 times larger than that of an equivalent linear-elastic and perfect-plastic system. Plate buckling did not lead the shear panels to immediate degradation in their energy dissipation capacity. Post-buckling resistance was found to be a subject that requires further studies for quantifying the performance of shear panels made of low yield stress steel as hysteretic dampers.

Nonlinear response of single piles under lateral inertial and seismic loads

A macroscopic model that consists of distributed hysteretic springs and frequency dependent -pots is utilized to model the lateral soil reaction and a practical method based on one-dimensional finite element formulation is developed to compute the nonlinear response of single piles under dynamic lateral loads. The model is physically motivated, adequate for cohesive and cohesionless soils, and involves standard geotechnical parameters. Only two parameters have to be calibrated by fitting experimental data. Hysteretic and radiation damping are modeled realistically within the practical range of amplitudes and frequencies. The model is calibrated and validated against five well instrumented full-scale experiments and typical values for the range of the model-parameters are provided. Subsequently, the developed model is utilized to study the nonlinear seismic response of single piles. Finally, the developed method and the calibrated model are used to predict the inertial and seismic response of one of the piles used in the foundation of the Ohba bridge near Tokyo, Japan.
