Shaking table test and numerical simulation on a vertical hybrid structure under seismic excitation

Based on the design of the large-scale shaking table test of an underground pipeline under three dimension seismic excitation, the dynamic response of the soil-structure is analyzed by using ANSYS. In the numerical simulation, Drucker-Prager constitutive model is adopted to simulate the soil, the interface between soil and pipeline are simulated with zero thickness contact elements, size effects of test box are diminished by defining viscoelastic boundary around soil, the acceleration time history curve of the original earthquake wave is compressed and processed according to using the model scale similarity and energy duration which is presented by Trifunac-Brady [1] , and then the characteristic of seismic response of the pipeline can be found. The results show that the top of pipeline is the seismic response intense regional, deformation displacements of the central areas at the bottom and top of pipeline are always larger than others, the entrance and exit are the weak positions of anti-seismic structure; moreover, the dynamic response and interactions of soil-pipeline in the model experiment can be more accurately simulated by the methods presented in the paper. Thus, it can be served as reference for the design and construction of subsurface structures.

Pillar electrical equipment is an important part of substations. The application of composite materials in pillar equipment can facilitate the improvement of the seismic performance of electrical equipment. In this paper, the test of elastic modulus and bending rigidity was conducted for individual composite elements in insulators and arresters, and the calculation formula for bending rigidity at the composite flange cementing connections was put forward. The numerical simulation model for the earthquake simulation shaking table test of ±1,100 kV composite pillar insulators was established, in which the bending rigidity value for the flange cementing part was obtained by the test or calculation formula. The numerical simulation results were compared with the earthquake simulation shaking table test results, the dynamic characteristics and seismic response of the model were compared, respectively, the validity of the proposed calculation formula for flange bending rigidity of composite cementing parts was verified, and a convenient and effective means was provided for calculating the seismic performance of composite electrical equipment.

In order to establish the systematic design method of performance-based earthquake engineering for steel-concrete hybrid structure tall buildings, a 1/15 scale model shaking table test is conducted in State Key Laboratory for Disaster Reduction in Civil Engineering of Tongji University. The dynamic property, acceleration and displacement response of the model structure under different earthquake levels are investigated from the test. The failure mode of structure is analyzed and the seismic response of the prototype structure is interpreted according to the similitude relation. The conclusions drawn from this investigation show that the prototype structure can basically satisfy the requirements of no damage under frequent earthquakes and no collapse under rare earthquakes; steel frame- concrete core structural system has good seismic performance under rare earthquake; and the damage of the connection between the steel frame beam and the core wall is the main failure pattern of the structure.

History Of

This paper presents the nonlinear dynamic simulation analysis of a shaking table test specimen, which was a twelve- story reinforced concrete frame and tested under base excitations representing four earthquake records of increasing intensity. Owing to the length constraint of the paper, three cases are used for the simulation. The numerical simulation of the test model is conducted utilizing the finite element analysis procedure CANNY, and the analysis results include the natural frequency, response history of the frame and the damage evolution. It is concluded from comparisons between experimental results and the numerical simulation ones that the latter matches well with the former, therefore the validity of the analytical method and model for simulation of RC frame shaking table test is proved.
