Seismic demand on nonstructural components (NSCs) is highly dependent on the coupled behavior of a combined supporting structure-NSC system. Because of the inherent complexities of the problem, many of the affecting factors are inevitably neglected or simplified based on engineering judgments in current seismic design codes. However, a systematic analysis of the key affecting factors should establish reasonable seismic design provisions for NSCs. In this study, an idealized 2-DOF model simulating the coupled structure-NSC system was constructed to analyze the parameters that affect the response of NSCs comprehensively. The analyses were conducted to evaluate the effects of structure-NSC mass ratio, structure, and NSC nonlinearities on the peak component acceleration. Also, the appropriateness of component ductility factor (R_p) given by current codes was discussed based on the required ductility capacity of NSCs. It was observed that the responses of NSCs on the coupled system were significantly affected by the mass ratio, resulting in lower accelerations than the floor spectrum-based response, which neglected the interaction effects. Also, the component amplification factor (a_p) in current provisions tended to underestimate the dynamic amplification of NSCs with a mass ratio of less than 15%. The nonlinearity of NSCs decreased the component responses. In some cases, the code-specified R_p caused nonlinear deformation far beyond the ductility capacity of NSCs, and a practically unacceptable level of ductility was required for short-period NSCs to achieve the assigned amount of response reduction.

The latest earthquake's costly repairs and economic disruption were brought on by excessive residual drift. Self-centering systems are one of the most efficient ways in the current generation of seismic resistance system to get rid of and reduce residual drift. The mechanics and behavior of the self-centering system in response to seismic forces were impacted by a number of important factors. The amount of post-tensioning (PT) force, which is often employed for the standing posture after an earthquake, is the first important component. The energy dissipater element is another one that has a significant impact on how the self-centering system behaves. Using the damper as a replaceable and affordable tool and fuse in self-centering frames has been recommended to boost energy absorption and dampening of structural systems during earthquakes. In this research, the self-centering steel moment frame connections are equipped with cushion flexural dampers (CFDs) as an energy dissipator system to increase energy absorption, post-yielding stiffness, and ease replacement after an earthquake. Also, it has been carefully considered how to reduce permanent deformations in the self-centering steel moment frames exposed to seismic loads while maintaining adequate stiffness, strength, and ductility. After confirming the FE model's findings with an earlier experimental PT connection, the behavior of the self-centering connection using CFD has been surveyed in this study. The FE modeling takes into account strands preloading as well as geometric and material nonlinearities. In addition to contact and sliding phenomena, gap opening and closing actions are included in the models. According to the findings, self-centering moment-resisting frames (SF-MRF) combined with CFD enhance post-yielding stiffness and energy absorption with the least amount of permeant deformation in a certain CFD thickness. The obtained findings demonstrate that the effective energy dissipation ratio (β), is increased to 0.25% while also lowering the residual drift to less than 0.5%. Also, this enhancement in the self-centering connection with CFD's seismic performance was attained with a respectable moment capacity to beam plastic moment capacity ratio.

축력과 면내 및 면외의 두방향 휨모멘트를 받는 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 비선형 해석연구를 수행하였으며 , 해석결과를 분석하여 벽체의 강도산정법을 유도하였다. 비선형 해석연구를 위하여 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 재료 및 기하학적 비선형 해석을 수행할 수 있는 유한요소 해석방법을 개발하였다. 철근콘크리트의 재료모델로서 소성이론과 파괴모델의 통합모델을 사용하였다. 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 해석결과를 토대로 단면의 응력분포를 이상화하였으며, 이를 이용하여 새로운 강도산정법을 개발하였다. 이 방법에 따르면, 면외 휨모멘트에 의하여 단위길이의 벽체가 지지할 수 있는 축력이 결정되며, 이 허용 단위 축력에 따라서 총 축력과 면내 휨모멘트의 상호관계곡선이 결정된다. 면외 휨모멘트가 증가할수록 축력과 면내 휨모멘트의 상호관계곡선이 축소되며 이는 벽체 강도의 감소를 가리킨다. 이 새로운 방법을 , 휨변형후에도 단면이 평면으로 유지된다는 가정을 사용하는 기존의 강도산정법과 비교한다. 이 비교결과에 따르면 , 새로운 방법에 비하여 기존의 방법은 면외 휨모멘크가 작은 영역에서 벽체의 강도를 과소평가하며, 면외 휨모멘트가 큰 영역에서는 벽체의 강도를 과대평가한다.
