以有限元分析理论为基础,结合某大跨度斜拉桥工程实例,利用ANSYS软件建立有限元模型,通过修正后的El Centro波分别考虑横向、竖向及纵向输入,采用时程分析方法对其进行地震反应分析.计算分析表明:考虑几何非线性后,结构的内力和位移响应明显增大,且对主梁和索塔内力与位移的影响程度及规律也不尽相同,须区别对待分析.同时表明该桥抗震性能良好,地震荷载不控制设计.由此得出结论,对于斜拉桥这类柔性体系, 不可忽视结构几何非线性的影响.     

Experimental and theoretical simulations of seismic poundings between two adjacent structures

Shaking table tests have been carried out to investigate the pounding phenomenon between two steel towers of different natural frequencies and damping ratios, subject to different combinations of stand‐off distance and seismic excitations. Both harmonic waves and ground motions of the 1940 El Centro earthquake are used as input. Subjected to sinusoidal excitations, poundings between the two towers could appear as either periodic or chaotic. For periodic poundings, impact normally occurs once within each excitation cycle or within every other excitation cycle. A type of periodic group poundings was also observed for the first time (i.e. a group of non‐periodic poundings repeating themselves periodically). Chaotic motions develop when the difference of the natural frequency of the two towers become larger. Under sinusoidal excitations, the maximum relative impact velocity always develops at an excitation frequency between the natural frequencies of the two towers. Both analytical and numerical predictions of the relative impact velocity, the maximum stand‐off distance, and the excitation frequency range for pounding occurrences were made and found to be comparable with the experimental observations in most of the cases. The stand‐off distance attains a maximum when the excitation frequency is close to that of the more flexible tower. Pounding appears to amplify the response of the stiffer structure but suppress that of the more flexible structure; and this agrees qualitatively with previous shaking table tests and theoretical studies.

Dynamic response of multistoreyed brick buildings

The paper presents the seismic response analysis of a typical multistoreyed brick building. A number of variables representing the physical properties of the structural system, namely, number of storeys from one to four, wall thickness in various storeys from one to one and a half brick thick and damping from 5 per cent to 15 per cent of critical value are considered. A shear beam type multi-degree-of-freedom oscillator is taken to represent these buildings mathematically in which the masses of the floors and walls are assumed as lumped at the floor levels and the floors are assumed as rigid diaphragms. Koyna and El Centro earthquake accelerograms, representing two seismicity levels, are used for computing dynamic response of the buildings. Overturning and torsional effects have been included in the determination of timewise net stresses in the building elements and their seismic capabilities have been examined. From this study the critical sections for providing reinforcing have been identified and the minimum amount of necessary steel has been estimated.     

Overturning effects in stiffened building frames

In this paper seismically induced overturning effects in stiffened building frames are studied by examining the response of two structures: a 20-storey ‘core wall’ reinforced concrete frame and a 10-storey steel braced frame. The excitations utilized in the study are the 1971 Pacoima Dam S16E Record and the 1940 El Centro N-S Record magnified by a factor of two. Non-linear effects of the following types are considered: plastic hinging of beams and columns, yielding and/or buckling of bracing members and transient uplift of portions of the structures from the foundation. In particular, comparisions are made between response with unlimited base overturning capacity assumed and response with dead-weight overturning resistance only. Providing dead-weight overturning resistance only is shown to significantly reduce seismic load levels, with relatively little or no loss in drift control. Ductility demand in these stiffened frames is shown to be limited, when transient uplift is allowed, to the link beams connecting stiffened and unstiffened portions of the structures.

Dynamic soil–structure interaction effects on the seismic response of asymmetric buildings

An approach is formulated for the linear analysis of three-dimensional dynamic soil–structure interaction of asymmetric buildings in the time domain, in order to evaluate the seismic response behaviour of torsionally coupled buildings. The asymmetric building is idealized as a single-storey three-dimensional system resting on different soil conditions. The soil beneath the superstructure is modeled as linear elastic solid elements. The contact surface between foundation mat and solid elements of soil is discretised by linear plane interface elements with zero thickness. An interface element is further developed to function between the rigid foundation and soil. As an example, the response of soil–structure interaction of torsionally coupled system under two simultaneous lateral components of El Centro 1940 earthquake records has been evaluated and the effects of base flexibility on the response behaviour of the system are verified.     

Estimation of base motion in instrumented steel buildings using output‐only system identification

A procedure to estimate the seismic motion at the base of a building from measured acceleration response at two or more floors is presented. The proposed method is comprised of two steps. In the first step, the dynamic characteristics of the building are inferred by using an output‐only system identification procedure. In the second step, the motion of the base of the building is estimated by using the transfer function of a simplified building model consisting of a shear and flexural continuous beam together with dynamic properties obtained in the first step. The proposed method is validated first with an analytical model subjected to the 1940 El Centro ground motion and then with an instrumented building in California that experienced the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and the ground motions at the base of the building are available. It is shown that the proposed method is capable of providing very good estimates of the motion at the base. The use of the proposed method is finally illustrated on an instrumented building, where the sensor at the base of the building did not function during the 1994 Northridge earthquake.

基于土弹簧的桩-土-输电塔抗震性能研究

在传统输电塔抗震分析中,通常假设输电塔固定在地面上,而不考虑土G结构相互作用(SoilG Structure Interaction,SSI)对结构的影响,从而可能导致输电塔抗震性能评估不准确.依托某 1000kV输电铁塔实际工程,对地震动激励下考虑SSI的输电塔进行综合的地震响应、倒塌破坏和倒塌易损性分析.在 ABAQUS中,通过沿桩体设置依据 API规范确定的零长度弹簧模拟土体与桩体间的相互作用,建立考虑SSI的输电塔有限元模型.基于数值模型,开展输电塔动力特性和结构动力响应分析.采用增量动力分析(Incremental Dynamic Analysis,IDA)方法,研究SSI对输电塔倒塌机理和易损性的影响.结果表明:考虑和未考虑SSI的输电塔振型相似,但自振频率相差较大;忽略SSI会低估输电塔的地震响应,同时高估输电塔的抗倒塌能力.因此考虑SSI可以提高输电塔抗震能力,进而确保输电线路的安全性.     

Assessment of seismic design response factors of air traffic control towers

Air Traffic Control (ATC) towers are among the most vital structures in each airport. Due to inadequate information regarding the seismic design and assessment of these types of structures, practicing engineers may refer to building codes. However, taking into account the special dynamic behavior of ATC towers, instructions and recommendations provided in building codes often do not comply with the required seismic performance levels of ATC towers. In this study, seismic behaviors of three in-service ATC towers with a dual concrete core lateral load resisting system were studied through pushover and incremental dynamic collapse analysis. Seismic design response factors of the reference towers were calculated. It was found that seismic design response factors adopted by the design code did not provide a uniform safety margin for all reference ATC towers. It was also observed that shorter towers have significantly higher response modification factors compared to taller towers. For the studied towers, a structural over-strength factor of 2.4 and a displacement amplification factor of 4 were obtained.     

Seismic response of segmental buildings

This paper proposes an aseismic design concept in which the superstructure of a base-isolated building is divided into several segments. Each segment may comprise a few storeys and is interconnected by additional vibrational isolation systems. The dynamic characteristics of the segmental buildings are investigated. The optimum parameters of the vibration isolation systems are determined by minimizing the mean square acceleration response. The seismic response of a typical segmental building subjected to the N—S component of the 1940 El Centro earthquake input is evaluated and compared with the responses of the corresponding fixed-base and conventional base-isolated buildings. The comparisons show that, when the superstructure is segmented, while the acceleration response in the superstructure remains as small as that in the conventional base-isolated building, the displacement across the base isolation system at foundation level is substantially reduced.

Dynamics of submerged intake towers including interaction with dam and foundation

The dynamics of a coupled concrete gravity dam-intake tower–reservoir water–foundation rock system is numerically studied considering two hollow slender towers submerged in reservoir of gravity dam. The system is investigated in the frequency-domain using frequency response functions of the dam and the towers, and in the time-domain using time-history seismic analysis under a real earthquake ground motion. The analyzes are separately conducted under horizontal and vertical ground motions. The coupled system is three-dimensionally modeled using finite elements by Eulerian–Lagrangian approach. It is shown that presence of the dam significantly influences the dynamic response of the towers under both horizontal and vertical excitations; however the dam is not affected by the towers. When the dam is present in the model, the water contained inside the towers has different effects if the foundation is rigid, but it alleviates the towers motion if the foundation is flexible. It is concluded that the effects of foundation interaction are of much importance in the response of tall slender towers when they are located near concrete gravity dams.     

Torsional spectrum for earthquake motions

A computational scheme is presented to construct torsional spectra due to the rotational component of seismic ground motions. The rotational component of ground motion is estimated from the measured earthquake acceleration records. In contrast to previous studies, no differentiation of acceleration records is involved in the present scheme. The torsional spectrum of the 1940 El Centro earthquake is computed and compared with previous results. An average and a mean plus one standard deviation torsional spectrum is presented for design purposes. These spectra are results based on four historical records (1934 El Centre, 1940 El Centro, 1949 Olympia and 1952 Taft) normalized to the 1940 El Centro intensity.     

Shake table experimental study of cable-stayed bridges with two different design strategies of H-shaped towers

As one of the main load-carrying components of cable-stayed bridges,bridge towers are typically required to remain elastic even when subjected to severe ground motions with a 2%-3%probability of exceedance in 50 years.To fulfill this special requirement imposed by current seismic design codes,reinforcement ratios in the bridge towers have to be kept significantly higher than if limited ductility behavior of the tower is allowed.In addition,since the foundation capacity is closely related to the moment and shear capacities of the bridge tower,a large increase in bridge construction cost for elastically designed cable-stayed bridge is inevitable.To further investigate the possibility of limited ductility bridge tower design strategies,a new 1/20-scale cable-stayed bridge model with H-shaped bridge towers designed according to strong strut-weak tower column design was tested.The shake table experimental results are compared with a previous strong tower column-weak strut designed full bridge model.A comparison of the results show that ductility design with plastic hinges located on tower columns,i.e.,strong strut-weak tower column design,is another effective seismic design strategy that results in only small residual displacement at the top of the tower column,even under very severe earthquake excitations.
