钢桁架(ST)约束混凝土组合柱抗震性能研究

目前,组合柱在建筑结构中进行了广泛应用和研究,研究表明:截面形式对组合柱的抗震性能有很大影响。首先,对钢桁架(ST)约束混凝土组合柱进行了试验研究。并在此基础上,利用有限元软件ABAQUS建立了数值分析模型;其次,基于数值分析模型,分析了组合柱中各部件的应力应变状态,分别考察了轴压比、缀板排列方式、体积配箍率、角钢肢宽与肢厚等因素对柱抗震性能的影响;最后,给出了组合柱在不同抗震等级下轴压比限值的建议值,可为后续组合柱的研究提供参考。研究表明:随着轴压比的增大,组合柱的延性变差,承载力先增大后减小;合理的缀板排列方式可有效抑制角钢的局部屈曲;随着体积配箍率的增大,组合柱的承载力有一定提升,延性提高较为显著;随着角钢肢宽和肢厚的增加,组合柱的承载力和延性均有显著提升。     

同级位移多次循环作用下型钢混凝土柱抗震性能试验研究

为研究远场长周期地震动作用下SRC柱的抗震性能,对5个不同含钢率和配箍率的SRC柱进行同级位移循环加载10次的拟静力试验,分析其抗震性能指标。结果表明:同级位移循环次数对SRC柱抗震性能的影响与循环位移幅值有关。位移角不大于1/50时,同级位移循环次数对SRC柱的裂缝发展、承载力退化和耗能能力的影响均很小;位移角1/40时,随着位移循环次数的增加,SRC柱的裂缝不断发展,角部混凝土逐渐掉落,承载力退化幅度开始加大,耗能能力逐渐增强,损伤程度增长较快;位移角1/33时,同级位移多次循环导致SRC柱的损伤急剧发展,承载力快速降低,耗能能力明显增强,破坏程度显著加重。提高含钢率和配箍率均可以改善SRC柱的抗震性能。

2010年1月11-24日,华北地区出现7次地磁低点位移异常。异常结束1天后研究区内发生2010年1月24日山西河津4.8级地震。采用实测低点时间减去理论低点时间的方法剔除低点时间经度效应,并以剔除经度效应后低点时间为0 h的等值线作为低点位移分界线,山西河津4.8级地震震中处于1月16日、17日、19日、22日地磁低点位移分界线上。低点位移异常日期间,华北地区存在显著的高梯度带,该文采用梯度值定量描述低点时间空间变化程度。在正常日期间,华北地区未出现梯度值大于1 h/（°）的区域,在异常日期间,出现梯度值大于1 h/（°）的区域,河津4.8级地震多位于高梯度区边缘。     

Damage sequence and safety margin assessment of expansion joints by shake table testing

The performance of nonstructural components has attracted attention, and previous large earthquakes have resulted in widespread damage to expansion joints. In contrast to the main structural components, for which ductility beyond the design tolerance is ensured, the safety margin of nonstructural components classified as the product of mechanical engineering, such as expansion joints, is uncertain. This paper investigates the damage sequence and safety margin of expansion joints through shake table testing. The expansion joints were installed to connect 2 rigid steel frames with short and long natural periods. Four commonly used types, high-performance and standard-performance floor and wall expansion joints, were tested. Seven damage patterns of the 4 expansion joints were observed, and most of the damage patterns were considered displacement dependent. The damage mechanisms and relative displacements at the moment of damage were identified by using strain gauges attached near collision and damage locations. The high-performance expansion joints showed only minor damage beyond the design motion range, whereas the standard-performance expansion joints exhibited minor damage below the design motion range and failure at the design motion range or slightly beyond. For each damage state, repair information was obtained through a questionnaire to an expansion joint manufacturer, and the sum of the initial cost and repair cost for high-performance and standard-performance expansion joints was compared. The results will be useful for the selection of expansion joints in the design process.     

2011年日本MW9.0地震震后形变机制与震源区总体构造特征

本文利用较为完备的球体位错理论,结合4.5年的震后位移数据,优化了2011年日本M_W9.0地震震源区岩石圈弹性层厚度与地幔黏滞性因子,更新了该强震断层余滑时空演化过程.首先,基于日本列岛215个均匀分布的GPS连续观测站震前2年与震后4.5年的观测数据,提取了2011年日本M_W9.0地震引起的震后位移时空变化;接着,依据断层余滑衰减相对较快的特点,利用黏弹性球体位错理论对震后3~4.5年的GPS观测数据进行反复拟合,确定2011年日本M_W9.0地震震源区地幔黏滞性系数和岩石圈弹性层厚度的最优解分别为6×10¹⁸ Pa·s和30 km;然后,从震后3年内GPS观测数据中剔除地幔黏滞性松弛效应,获取了断层余滑对应的震后位移场;最后,利用基于球体位错理论的反演算法,反演了2011年日本M_W9.0地震断层余滑的时空演化过程.结果表明,2011年日本M_W9.0地震引起的断层余滑在震后半年内变化显著,震后2年主震区域余滑基本停止,断层的两端存在一定的余滑效应,断层余滑的累计矩震级达到8.59;地震后4年,地幔黏滞性松弛效应对震后位移场的贡献在总体上超过断层余滑的贡献.     

STUDY ON DISPLACEMENT OF THE PEAKS OF THE HIMALAYA GENERATED BY THE 2015 NEPAL EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE

Based on the rupture models of the 2015 Nepal earthquake sequence and half space homogeneous elastic model, the displacement field near the epicenters is estimated. The horizontal components converge to the epicenters from north and south with maximum value of 871~962mm. The farther the epicenter distance is, the smaller of the horizontal displacement occurred. The displacement on the south side of the epicenters decreases more rapidly than that on the north side as the distance from the epicenter increased. Significant settlement occurred on the north side of the epicenters with maximum of 376~474mm, while large uplift occurred on the epicenters and its south side with maximum value of 626~677mm. Then, the displacement of the peaks of the Himalaya near the epicenters is estimated. The largest displacement occurred at the peak of Shishapangma with 393mm horizontal component and 36mm settlement. Mt. Everest, the world's highest peak, moves 36mm in nearly southward direction with 9mm settlement. The displacements of other peaks of the Himalaya are different with the epicentral distance and azimuth of the 2015 Nepal earthquake sequence.     

Improved evaluation of inelastic displacement demands for short‐period masonry structures

This work discusses the simplified estimation of earthquake‐induced nonlinear displacement demands as required by nonlinear static procedures, with particular attention on short‐period masonry structures. The study focuses on systems with fundamental periods between 0.1 and 0.5 s, for which inelastic amplification of the elastic displacement demand is more pronounced; hysteretic force‐displacement relationships characteristic of masonry structures are adopted, because these structures are more commonly found within the considered period range. Referring to the results of nonlinear dynamic analyses of single‐degree‐of‐freedom oscillators, some limitations of the Eurocode 8 and Italian Building Code formulations are first discussed, then an improved equation is calibrated that relates inelastic and elastic displacement demands. Numerical values of the equation parameters are obtained, considering the amount of hysteretic energy dissipation associated with various damage mechanisms observed in masonry structures. Safety factors are also calculated to determine several percentiles of the displacement demand. It is shown that the proposed equation can be extended to more dissipative systems. Finally, the same formulation is adapted to the estimation of seismic displacements when elastic analysis procedures are employed. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
