  • 비탄성 지진해석은 구조물-지반 체계의 비선형 거동 때문에 내진설계를 위해 필요하고, 합리적인 내진설계를 위해서 지반-구조물 상호작용을 고려한 성능에 기준한 설계의 중요성도 인식되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 11개 중약진과 5개 강진 기록을 최대 가속도 0.075g, 0.15g, 0.2g와 0.3g로 조정하여 연약지반에 세워진 단자유도계에 대한 탄성과 비탄성 지진응답해석을 지반의 비선형성을 고려하여 수행하였다. 의사3차원 동적해석 프로그램을 사용하여 주파수 영역에서 지진하중을 암반에 작용시켜 구조물-지반 체계에 대한 지진응답해석을 한번에 수행하였다. 연구결과에 의하면 비선형 지반-구조물 상호작용 영향을 고려하는 것과 설계기준에 따라 내진설계를 하는 것보다는 여러 가지 지반조건을 고려하여 성능에 기준한 내진설계를 수행하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 약진에 의한 연약지반의 비선형성이 비선형 지반에 의한 지진파의 증폭 때문에 탄성과 비탄성 지진응답에 심하게 영향을 미쳤는데 특히 탄성지진응답에서 두드러졌다.

  • 본 연구에서는 부분강절 뼈대구조물의 비탄성 좌굴해석기법을 제시하기 위하여, 이전의 연구[16]에서 제시되었던 부분강절 뼈대구조의 엄밀한 강도행렬과 선형해석을 위한 탄성 및 기하학적 강도행렬을 도입하고 비탄성 좌굴해석을 위해 도로교시방서의 극한내하력 기준과 EF법을 이용하여 부분강절 뼈대구조의 비탄성 좌굴해석 프로그램을 새롭게 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 부분강절 뼈대구조의 접선강도행렬은 안정함수를 사용함에 따라 부재 당 하나의 요소만으로 정확한 비탄성 좌굴해석 결과를 얻을 수 있으며 고유벡터를 이용하여 비탄성 좌굴형상을 얻을 수 있는 장점을 갖는다. 또한, 엄밀한 접선강도행렬에 대해 Taylor 전개를 수행하여 4차항까지 고려함으로서 탄성 강도행렬과 기하학적 강도행렬을 유도하고 선형화된 좌굴해석기법을 제시하였다. 결국, 접선강도행렬을 이용한 비선형 해석프로그램(M1)과 탄성 및 기하학적 강도행렬을 이용한 선형 해석프로그램(M2)이 개발되었으며 이를 이용하여 부분강절로 연결된 뼈대구조물의 비탄성좌굴에 대한 시스템 좌굴하중과 개별부재의 유효좌굴계수를 제시함에 따라 부분강절이 전체 구조계의 좌굴과 개별부재의 유효좌굴길이에 미치는 영향을 다양한 해석예제를 통해 조사하였다.

  • This study explores the inelastic behavior of systems with flexible base. The use of a single degree of freedom system (ESDOF) with equivalent ductility to represent the response of flexible base systems is discussed. Two different equations to compute equivalent ductility are proposed, one which includes the contribution of rigid body components, and other based on the overstrength of the structure. In order to asses the accuracy of ESDOF approach with the proposed equations, the behavior of a 10-story regular building with reinforced concrete (RC) moment resisting frames is studied. Local and global ductility capacity and demands are used to study the modifications introduced by base flexibility. Three soil types are considered with shear wave velocities of 70, 100 and 250 m/s. Soil-foundation stiffness is included with a set of springs on the base (impedance functions). Capacity curves of the building are computed with pushover analysis. In addition, non linear time history analysis are used to asses the ductility demands. Results show that ductility capacity of the soil-structure system including rigid body components is reduced. Base flexibility does not modify neither yield and maximum base shear. Equivalent ductility estimated with the proposed equations is fits better the results of the numerical model than the one considering elastoplastic behavior. Modification of beams ductility demand due to base flexibility are not constant within the structure. Some elements experience reduced ductility demands while other elements experience increments when flexible base is considered. Soil structure interaction produces changes in the relation between yield strength reduction factor and structure ductility demand. These changes are dependent on the spectral shape and the period of the system with fixed and flexible base.

  • During an earthquake, soils filter and send out the shaking to the building and simultaneously it has the role of bearing the building vibrations and transmitting them back to the ground. In other words, the ground and the building interact with each other. Hence, soil-structure interaction (SSI) is a key parameter that affects the performance of buildings during the earthquakes and is worth to be taken into consideration. Columns are one of the most crucial elements in RC buildings that play an important role in stability of the building and must be able to dissipate energy under seismic loads. Recent earthquakes showed that formation of plastic hinges in columns is still possible as a result of strong ground motion, despite the application of strong column-weak beam concept, as recommended by various design codes. Energy is dissipated through the plastic deformation of specific zones at the end of a member without affecting the rest of the structure. The formation of a plastic hinge in an RC column in regions that experience inelastic actions depends on the column details as well as soil-structure interaction (SSI). In this paper, 854 different scenarios have been analyzed by inelastic time-history analyses to predict the nonlinear behavior of RC columns considering soil-structure interaction (SSI). The effects of axial load, height over depth ratio, main period of soil and structure as well as different characteristics of earthquakes, are evaluated analytically by finite element methods and the results are compared with corresponding experimental data. Findings from this study provide a simple expression to estimate plastic hinge length of RC columns including soil-structure interaction.

  • This paper aims to develop response modification factors for stiffness degrading structures by incorporating soil-structure interaction effects. A comprehensive parametric study is conducted to investigate the effects of key SSI parameters, natural period of vibration, ductility demand and hysteretic behavior on the response modification factor of soil-structure systems. The nonlinear dynamic response of 6300 soil-structure systems are studied under two ensembles of accelograms including 20 recorded and 7 synthetic ground motions. It is concluded that neglecting the stiffness degradation of structures can results in up to 22% underestimation of inelastic strength demands in soil-structure systems, leading to an unexpected high level of ductility demand in the structures located on soft soil. Nonlinear regression analyses are then performed to derive a simplified expression for estimating ductility-dependent response modification factors for stiffness degrading soil-structure systems. The adequacy of the proposed expression is investigated through sensitivity analyses on nonlinear soil-structure systems under seven synthetic spectrum compatible earthquake ground motions. A good agreement is observed between the results of the predicted and the target ductility demands, demonstrating the adequacy of the expression proposed in this study to estimate the inelastic demands of SSI systems with stiffness degrading structures. It is observed that the maximum differences between the target and average target ductility demands was 15%, which is considered acceptable for practical design purposes.

  • It is important to evaluate energy absorption capacity of frames required during a design earthquake. An inelastic computer analysis based on mathematical modelling of energy absorbing frames and elements makes it possible to evaluate required energy absorption capacity. But such an analysis sometimes consumes much computation time particularly in case of complicated structural system. This paper presents a proposal to predict energy absorption of multi-bent steel frames by simple equivalent linear method.

  • Reinforced concrete structural walls are widely known to provide an efficient lateral load resistance and drift control. However, many reported researches on them are mostly limited to the RC structural walls reinforced according to seismic details. When the pushover analysis technique is used for the prediction of inelastic behavior of frame-wall structures for the seismic evaluation of existing buildings having non-seismic details, the reliability of this analysis method should be checked by the test results. The objective of this study is to verify the correlation between the experimental and analytical responses of a high-rise reinforced concrete frame-wall structure having non-seismic details by using DRAIN-2DX program[11] and the test results performed previously[1]. It is concluded that the behavior of the frame-wall model is mainly affected by the fixed-end rotation(uplift at base) and bending deformation of the wall and that the analysis with the LINKS model[10] in DRAIN-2DX describes them with good reliability.

  • In this study, it is demonstrated that how the effect of the Near Fault Ground Motion affects the response of the structure. Considering the general characteristic of Near Fault Ground Motion the characteristics of Near Fault Ground Motions is analysed by elastic response spectrums, and the inelastic response spectrum is evaluated with the ductility and the yield strength to consider the inelastic behavior which couldn't be simulated through the elastic response spectrum. The result of this study shows that the effect of Near Fault Ground Motion should be considered in the long period range of long span structures but the domestic seismic design code was developed based on Far Fault Ground Motions, so the effects of Near Fault Ground Motions, which is very serious especially in large structures with a long period, are not considered. Therefore, the effect of the Near Fault Ground Motion has to be examined especially in the seismic performance evaluation of long period structure.

  • An evaluation is presented of the response of a 3-storey R/C structure during the destructive Lefkada earthquake of 14/08/2003. Key aspects of the event include: (1) the unusually strong levels of ground motion (PGA = 0.48 g, $SA_{max}$ = 2.2 g) recorded approximately 10 km from fault, in downtown Lefkada; (2) the surprisingly low structural damage in the area; (3) the very soft soil conditions ($V_{s,max}$ = 150 m/s). Structural, geotechnical and seismological aspects of the earthquake are discussed. The study focuses on a 3-storey building, an elongated structure of rectangular plan supported on strip footings, that suffered severe column damage in the longitudinal direction, yet minor damage in the transverse one. Detailed spectral and time-history analyses highlight the interplay of soil, foundation and superstructure in modifying seismic demand in the two orthogonal directions of the building. It is shown that soil-structure interaction may affect inelastic seismic response and alter the dynamic behavior even for relatively flexible systems such as the structure at hand.
