Underlying Soil

abstract Calculations for the dynamic response of multistory buildings to earthquake accelerations of bedrock should include the effects of the soil and the structural foundation. For this purpose a three-dimensional analytical model is developed, consisting of the following parts. The superstructure is modeled as a tier building (with rigid floor diaphragms, space frame members, bracing, and setbacks); the foundation is approximated by a rigid block in combination with piles (prismatic members with pinned ends), and the soil is idealized by a finite-element mesh (three-dimensional rectangular prisms) with special boundary conditions (viscous damping at lateral boundaries and a rigid boundary at bedrock). This analytical model is incorporated into a computer program, which performs response analyses for specified earthquakes. Sample problems are included to demonstrate the capabilities of both the analytical model and the computer program. The results show that the combination of a three-dimensional analytical model and the presence of underlying soil has important influences on the calculated responses of multistory buildings to earthquakes.

The Masses

This paper considers the use of a chain of springs and masses to reduce the transmission of shock and vibration through the system. The masses are equipped with internally rotating masses that absorb some of the axial vibration into internal kinetic energy of the masses. The internal masses have viscous damping, but no elastic or gravitational restraint. Previous research has shown that a single cart system attached to a vibrating structure can help mitigate shock through targeted energy transfer. This paper examines the potential for shock isolation provided by a chain of such systems. Through numerical simulations, tradeoffs are examined between displacement and transmitted force.
