In the past decades, effect of near field earthquake on the historical monuments has attracted the attention of researchers. So, many analyses in this regard have been presented. Tunnels as vital arteries play an important role in management after the earthquake crisis. However, digging tunnels and seismic effects of earthquake on the historical monuments have always been a challenge between engineers and historical supporters. So, in a case study, effect of near field earthquake on the historical monument was investigated. For this research, Finite Element Analysis (FEM) in soil environment and soil-structure interaction was used. In Plaxis 2D software, different accelerograms of near field earthquake were applied to the geometric definition. Analysis validations were performed based on the previous numerical studies. Creating a nonlinear relationship with space parameter, time, angular and numerical model outputs was of practical and critical importance. Hence, artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used and two linear layers and Tansig function were considered. Accuracy of the results was approved by the appropriate statistical test. Results of the study showed that buildings near and far from the tunnel had a special seismic behavior. Scattering of seismic waves on the underground tunnels on the adjacent buildings was influenced by their distance from the tunnel. Finally, a static test expressed optimal convergence of neural network and Plaxis.

This paper presents results of nonlinear analyses for underground structures including both the soil-structure interaction and nonlinear behavior of concrete material. For this purpose, a hybrid method is employed, in which a dynamic analysis technique for a linear soil-structure interaction system and a general purpose FE program are combined in hybrid and practical manners. A couple of nonlinear analyses are carried out for framed structures in multi-layered half space soil medium. The yielding of concrete structure is considered by a multi-linear stress- strain relationship. The numerical results suggest that ductile design fur the intermediate columns in the underground framed structure is substantially important in aseismic design.

The performance of steel MRF with rigid connections, proportioned by adopting different capacity design criteria, is evaluated in order to highlight the effectiveness of static non-linear procedure in predicting the structural seismic behavior. In the framework of the performance-based design, some considerations are made on the basis of the results obtained by both dynamic time histories and push-over analyses, particularly with reference to the damage level and the structure ability to withstand a strong earthquake.

The effects of the vertical component of a ground motion on the earthquake performances of semi-ductile high-rise R/C structures were investigated in the present study. Linear and non-linear time-history analyses were conducted on an existing in-service R/C building for the loading scenarios including and excluding the vertical component of the ground motion. The ratio of the vertical peak acceleration to the horizontal peak acceleration (V/H) of the ground motion was adopted as the main parameter of the study. Three different near-source earthquake records with varying V/H ratio were used in the analyses. The linear time-history analyses indicated that the incorporation of the vertical component of a ground motion into analyses greatly influences the vertical deflections of a structure and the overturning moments at its base. The lateral deflections, the angles of rotation and the base shear forces were influenced to a lesser extent. Considering the key indicators of vertical deflection and overturning moments determined from the linear time-history analysis, the non-linear analyses revealed that the changes in the forces and deformations of the structure with the inclusion of the vertical ground motion are resisted by the shear-walls. The performances and damage states of the beams were not affected by the vertical ground motion. The vertical ground motion component of earthquakes is markedly concluded to be considered for design and damage estimation of the vertical load-bearing elements of the shear-walls and columns.

The major purpose of this study is to determine the dynamic behavior of soil-pile-structure interaction system considering the underground cavity. For the analysis, a numerical method fur ground response analysis using FE-BE coupling method is developed. The total system is divided into two parts so called far field and near field. The far field is modeled by boundary element formulation using the multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution that satisfied radiational condition of wave. And this is coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. For the verification of dynamic analysis in the frequency domain, both forced vibration analysis and free-field response analysis are performed. The behavior of soil non-linearity is considered using the equivalent linear approximation method. As a result, it is shown that the developed method can be an efficient numerical method to solve the seismic response analysis considering the underground cavity in 2D problem.

This paper presents the studies of the characteristics of dynamic behavior of single layer latticed domes with laminated rubber bearing and establishes the effectiveness of the system. The base isolation system installed between base and structures reduces the responses due to earthquake motions and increases the natural period of structures. Numerical analysis is carried out using modal superposition method and Newmark-βmethod which is linear acceleration method with (equation omitted) : 1/2 and β : 1/6. The time interval Δt for response calculation is 0.001 sec. Damping ratio is 2 % as Rayleigh damping and El Centro NS(1940) as earthquake motion is the input excitation data. The acceleration response of dome with base isolation is reduced to 30 % of the response of non-isolation system. From the results of the numerical studies on the models, it is confirmed that base isolation system effectively suppresses the responses of the domes subjected to horizontal earthquakes.

In this study, the seismic performance of a residential building which was damaged in the 1992 Erzincan (Turkey) Earthquake (Ms = 6.8) is performed. Damages on columns due to short columns are estimated analytically implementing the shear hinges and results are compared with the observed damages on the building after the earthquake. In seismic performance evaluation, a deformation based approach is adopted, whereby the structural behavior under external and seismic loads is evaluated. Furthermore, the effects of short columns formed by band windows in basement floors are investigated analytically. The sizes of band windows are parametrically changed in order to understand the effects of short columns on overall building behavior.

In this paper,soil-structure interaction effects on the seismic response of multistory frame structure on raft foundation are numerically analyzed. The foundation soil profile is assumed to consists of a clay layer of variable thicknessresting on bedrock. Amodified plane-strain numerical model isformed in the software Plaxis, and both free vibration analysis, and earthquake analysis for a selected ground motion accelerogram are performed. The behavior of the structure is assumed to be linear elastic with Rayleigh viscous damping included. The behavior of the clay layer is modeled with a Hardening soil model with small strain stiffness. The computed results in terms of fundamental period and structural horizontal displacementsfor the case of fixed base and for different thicknesses of clay layer are presented, compared, and discussed.

본 연구는 내진설계 되지 않은 학교시설물 중 다수를 차지하는 1980년도 표준설계 도면(건설부 공고 제130호, 1980년 10월 28일)에 의하여 건설된 국내에 현존하는 4층 모멘트 연성골조의 학교건물을 대상으로 이력모델의 특성과 지진파의 특성에 따라 표준학교건물의 비탄성지진거동을 분석하고자 한다. El-centro지진은 주파수 성분과 강진지속시간의 특성에 의하여 표준학교건물의 단변방향 층전단력, 층간변위비, 층변위 응답에 매우 큰 영향을 미치며 특히 수정다케다모델 선택시 응답의 차이가 매우 크게 나타남을 알 수 있다. 층전단력의 경우 최대 46%, 층간변위비의 경우 최대 70%, 층변위의 경우 최대 59%의 편차를 보인다. Santa Monica지진은 장변방향의 응답에서 이력모델별 편차가 더 크게 나타났으며, 층전단력은 최대 59%, 층간변위비는 최대 65%, 층변위는 최대 50%의 편차를 보였다. 이는 장변방향의 고유주기가 단변방향에 비하여 크기 때문에 1초이상의 주기성분이 많은 Santa Monica지진의 특성에 의한 것으로 판단된다. Taft지진은 이력모델에 따른 층간변위비와 층변위 응답의 편차가 가장 적은 것으로 나타났으며, 층간변위비는 최대 15%, 층변위는 최대 5%의 편차를 보여 변위응답에 있어서 이력모델에 가장 의존도가 적은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단 된다.
