在地面水平振动作用下储液罐的辐射阻尼

本文研究储液罐在地面水平振动时的辐射阻尼。为了与现行规范相适应,提出了两个质点的数学模型。上部结构的梁式基本周期按项忠权提出的公式计算,并由此导出了储液罐的结构刚度系数。文中所考虑的地基阻抗系数按Veletsos的动力方法计算,是激振频率的函数。数值计算表明:考虑土与结构相互作用影响后储液罐与液体耦联振动的阻尼比由2％增加到3.08％—28.42％,软弱地基上的辐射阻尼远大于结构阻尼。     

地下储液罐抗爆炸地冲击作用的流固耦合有限元分析

储液罐的抗震性能虽然得到了较为深入的研究,但对其抗爆炸产生的地冲击作用的研究还十分罕见。本文通过建立流固耦合的数值分析模型,研究爆炸地冲击作用下地下立式储液罐的动力特性,包括储液晃动波高、罐壁的应力和应变、底板的提离和浮放储液罐的“象足”变形产生原因及破坏机理等。研究结果表明,储液罐在爆炸地冲击荷载和地震荷载作用下的动力响应有明显区别,地震荷载作用下的储液罐抗震验算方法不适用于爆炸地冲击荷载。     

考虑液-固耦合的大型超高压换流变压器地震响应研究

针对大型超高压换流变压器的地震响应问题,以一超高压±800kV换流变压器为研究对象,考虑其本体中油与箱壁的相互作用建立三维有限元分析模型,采用LS-DYNA分析换流变压器的自振特性、地震作用下的动力响应规律以及换流变压器的薄弱部位。研究结果显示,对于大型超高压换流变压器,本体中油与箱壁的相互作用对结构动力响应有一定的放大作用,进行自振特性和地震响应分析时应考虑;套管体系的薄弱部位为套管的底部和中间部位,在这两个位置拉应力和压应力最大值交替出现;换流变套管体系在地震作用下的位移较大,套管顶部的导线应设置足够大的伸缩距离。     

钢筋混凝土矩形贮液结构的液-固耦合动力分析

由于液体的影响,贮液结构在地震作用下的动力响应与一般结构不同.本文采用通用有限元软件ADINA,考虑混凝土材料中钢筋的作用,探讨贮存液体表面重力波、壁板刚度、结构尺寸对系统液固耦合动力响应的影响,以及单向、双向和三向地震耦联作用下的液固耦合动力响应.结果为钢筋混凝土矩形贮液结构的液固耦舍研究提供了理论依据.     

大型储液罐摩擦摆基底隔震控制分析

针对弹性钢制圆柱储液罐,基于Haroun-Housner模型,将连续流体质量等效为3种集中质量,分别为:对流质量、脉冲质量和刚性质量,与这些集中质量连接的相应刚度取值依赖于储罐壁和流体质量.在水平地震激励下,在储罐底部加摩擦单摆支座,给出了简化的液体 - 储罐-隔震支座的力学分析模型,建立了摩擦摆支座基底隔震体系的振动控制方程,并利用Newmark逐步积分法对控制方程进行了数值求解,研究了摩擦摆支座基底隔震的储液罐地震反应,验证了FPB隔震的有效性.     

内罐影响下LNG储罐外罐地震响应分析

为了考虑内罐在不同方向地震动时对LNG(液化天然气)储罐外罐的影响,对有内罐和无内罐情况下LNG储罐外罐进行了地震响应分析。结果表明:有内罐时地震响应比无内罐时小,内罐的存在对LNG储罐抗震有好的影响;竖向地震波对结构振动的影响不能忽视。     

Seismic response analysis of adjacent liquid‐storage tanks

A refined substructure technique in the frequency domain is developed, which permits consideration of the interaction effects among adjacent containers through the supporting deformable soil medium. The tank‐liquid systems are represented by means of mechanical models, whereas discrete springs and dashpots stand for the soil beneath the foundations. The proposed model is employed to assess the responses of adjacent circular, cylindrical tanks for harmonic and seismic excitations over wide range of tank proportions and soil conditions. The influence of the number, spatial arrangement of the containers and their distance on the overall system's behavior is addressed. The results indicate that the cross‐interaction effects can substantially alter the impulsive components of response of each individual element in a tank farm. The degree of this impact is primarily controlled by the tank proportions and the proximity of the predominant natural frequencies of the shell‐liquid‐soil systems and the input seismic motion. The group effects should be not a priori disregarded, unless the tanks are founded on shallow soil deposit overlying very stiff material or bedrock. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Seismic assessment of unanchored steel storage tanks by endurance time method

Liquid storage tanks are essential structures that are often located in residential and industrial areas; thus an assessment of their seismic performance is an important engineering issue. In this paper, the seismic response of unanchored steel liquid storage tanks is investigated using the endurance time (ET) dynamic analysis procedure and compared to responses obtained for anchored tanks under actual ground motions and intensifying ET records. In most cases, the results from ground motions are properly obtained with negligible differences using ET records. It is observed that uplifting of the tank base, which is closely related to the tank aspect ratio, has the greatest significance in the responses of the tank and can be predicted with reasonable accuracy by using currently available ET records.     

浮放储罐三维地震反应有限元分析

针对立式储罐,考虑液固耦合效应、地基与储罐结构的相互作用,采用有限元分析方法,对储罐在三维地震荷载作用下动反应进行了数值分析。分析结果表明：储罐三维地震加速度反应较一维地震加速度反应增加、提离高度明显放大、储罐轴向应力增加、基底剪力与弯矩增大。     

基于流固耦合动力模型的饱和土体-隧道体系地震反应研究

基于ABAQUS软件平台,应用自行开发的流固耦合动力模型孔压单元模拟场地土体,并通过黏弹性人工边界方法实现地震动的输入,对饱和土体场地中的双孔隧道结构在地震荷载作用下的动力反应进行研究。计算结果表明:在地震反应结束时刻,场地土体位移幅值在两隧道之间以及两隧道的附近区域较大,而远离隧道的区域则较小;场地底部区域土体的孔压幅值较大,而场地顶部区域土体则较小;隧道左右两侧拱腰部位的衬砌的应力较大,而拱顶部位则较小。计算结果同时表明了流固耦合动力模型孔压单元在饱和土体-隧道体系地震反应研究中的适用性。     

考虑玻璃结构的上海中心大厦幕墙大震弹塑性分析

常规的幕墙抗震设计,往往只考虑玻璃质量对幕墙整体的影响而忽略玻璃刚度,将玻璃结构转化为等效质量施加于幕墙支撑结构进行抗震分析。然而,当幕墙结构承受大震作用时,幕墙支撑结构已进入塑性状态,将产生较大变形,此时玻璃刚度将在一定程度上影响幕墙整体刚度。尤其是对于复杂的超高层幕墙结构,玻璃刚度对幕墙整体刚度的影响具有一定的未知性,需要深入研究。针对这一问题,本文依托上海中心大厦幕墙结构,研究了考虑玻璃结构的幕墙大震下的弹塑性响应,并将其与未考虑玻璃结构的响应进行对比分析。结果表明,玻璃结构对建筑主体结构影响较少,对幕墙结构层间位移角抑制明显,从而减少了支撑结构内力;对高楼层,加速度放大系数有一定抑制作用,但对低楼层,加速度放大系数抑制作用有限。     

Seismic performance assessment of a hybrid coupled wall system with replaceable steel coupling beams versus traditional RC coupling beams

This study assesses the seismic performance of a hybrid coupled wall (HCW) system with replaceable steel coupling beams (RSCBs) at four intensities of ground motion shaking. The performance of the HCW system is benchmarked against the traditional reinforced concrete coupled wall (RCW). Nonlinear numerical models are developed in OpenSees for a representative wall elevation in a prototype 11‐story building designed per modern Chinese codes. Performance is assessed via nonlinear dynamic analysis. The results indicate that both systems can adequately meet code defined objectives in terms of global and component behavior. Behavior of the two systems is consistent under service level earthquakes, whereas under more extreme events, the HCW system illustrates enhanced performance over the RCW system resulting in peak interstory drifts up to 31% lower in the HCW than the RCW. Larger drifts in the RCW are because of reduced coupling action induced by stiffness degradation of RC coupling beams, whereas the stable hysteretic responses and overstrength of RSCBs benefit post‐yield behavior of the HCW. Under extreme events, the maximum beam rotations of the RSCBs are up to 42% smaller than those of the RC coupling beams. Moderate to severe damage is expected in the RC coupling beams, whereas the RSCBs sustain damage to the slab above the beam and possible web buckling of shear links. The assessment illustrates the benefits of the HCW with RSCBs over the RCW system, because of easy replacement of the shear links as opposed to costly and time‐consuming repairs of RC coupling beams.

Seismic risk assessment of liquid storage tanks via a nonlinear surrogate model

A performance‐based earthquake engineering approach is developed for the seismic risk assessment of fixed‐roof atmospheric steel liquid storage tanks. The proposed method is based on a surrogate single‐mass model that consists of elastic beam‐column elements and nonlinear springs. Appropriate component and system‐level damage states are defined, following the identification of commonly observed modes of failure that may occur during an earthquake. Incremental dynamic analysis and simplified cloud are offered as potential approaches to derive the distribution of response parameters given the seismic intensity. A parametric investigation that engages the aforementioned analysis methods is conducted on 3 tanks of varying geometry, considering both anchored and unanchored support conditions. Special attention is paid to the elephant's foot buckling formation, by offering extensive information on its capacity and demand representation within the seismic risk assessment process. Seismic fragility curves are initially extracted for the component‐level damage states, to compare the effect of each analysis approach on the estimated performance. The subsequent generation of system‐level fragility curves reveals the issue of nonsequential damage states, whereby significant damage may abruptly appear without precursory lighter damage states.
