This paper investigates shaking table test (1g) and numerical simulation (fully coupled) of vertically propagating shear waves for saturated soft free field. A large-scale shaking table model test was performed to study seismic response characteristics of saturated soft soil free field. According to test results of seismic response features of free field system in saturated soft soil, the free field nonlinearity fully coupled numerical model of dynamical effective stress of saturated soft soil was established using OpenSEES, based on the u-p formulations of dynamic consolidation equation as well as effective stress solution method for saturated two-phase media. The numerical simulation of the free field seismic response of saturated soft soil under various test conditions was performed and the calculated results were compared with the shaking table test results. The results show the following. (1) With the increase of input ground motion intensity, the characteristic frequency of the saturated soft free ground decreases and the damping ratio increases gradually. (2) The saturated soft soil ground has short period filtering and long period amplification effect on the horizontal input seismic loads. The failure foundation takes on the isolation and shock absorption under strong ground motions. (3) The peak pore pressure ratio of the saturated soft soil ground is located in the shallow buried soil layer, and with the increase of the input ground motion intensity, the advantage of dynamic pore pressure ratio in this area is gradually weakened. (4) The numerical simulation results are consistent with the results of the shaking table test. This fully coupled effective stress numerical method can reasonably simulate the seismic response characteristics of free field in saturated soft soil, which lay the foundation for other more complex parameter extrapolation models of saturated soft soil sites. This research can provide the necessary technical experience for experimental study on non-free field.

Seismic Structure

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.

Shaking table tests and theoretical analysis were conducted to study of the seismic response of cable net facade. Firstly dynamic response of cable net façade under earthquake was investigated with shaking table test. Then a numerical simulation model of cable net façade was built for the dynamic analysis .And then with this model the seismic response was analyzed theoretically. The study indicates that: the seismic response of the cable net with glass panels and the cable net on most occasions are mainly decided by the symmetric modes, and the first vibration mode is dominant. The damping of cable net facade is mainly decided by glass panels.

Mid-story isolation structure is developing from base isolation structures. As a complex structural system, the work mechanism of base isolation structure is not entirely appropriate for mid-story isolation structure, and the prolonging of structural natural period may not be able to decrease the seismic response of substructure and superstructure simultaneously. In this paper, for a four-story steel frame model, whose prototype first natural period is about 1s without seismic isolation design, the seismic responses and isolation effectiveness of mid-story isolation system with lead rubber bearing are studied experimentally by changing the location of isolation layer. Respectively, the locations of isolation layer are set at bottom of the first story, top of the first story, top of the second story and top of the third story. The results show that mid-story isolation can reduce seismic response in general, and substructure acceleration may be amplified.

Based on the equivalent mass-spring model and considering the coupling effect between creep soil and prestressed anchors, the dynamic calculation model of prestressed anchors with frame structure is established. The soil mass is expressed in the form of concentrated mass. The action of the frame structure on the soil is treated as a parallel coupling of a linear spring and a linear damper, and the free section of the anchor is treated as a linear spring. Considering the creep characteristics, the soil is regarded as a Generalized Kelvin body and the anchoring section of the anchor is regarded as an equivalent spring body, which are coupled in parallel. Considering the effect of slope height, the dynamic calculation model is solved and the seismic response is analyzed. Finally, an engineering example is used to verify the calculation method in this paper, and the results are compared with the shaking table test and numerical simulation. It shows that the calculation model proposed in this paper is safe and reasonable for the seismic design and analysis of the slope supported by prestressed anchors with frame structure.
