The multi-storey reinforced concrete frame structure whose frame has been added with a kind of unsymmetrical K-type friction energy dissipation brace is taken as an example in this article. The time history analysis of different angles of unsymmetrical K-type friction energy dissipation brace and symmetrical K-type friction energy dissipation brace under the rare earthquake has been done by using the finite element software SAP2000. The analysis and comparison on the seismic performance shows that symmetrical K-type friction energy dissipation brace under certain conditions. Plan layout could be more flexible by using the result obtained which could become a reference for design in days to come.

AbstractDynamic friction occurs not only between two contact objects sliding against each other, but also between two relative sliding surfaces several nanometres apart. Many emerging micro- and nano-mechanical systems that promise new applications in sensors or information technology may suffer or benefit from noncontact friction. Herein we demonstrate the distance-dependent friction energy dissipation between the tip and the heterogeneous polymers by the bimodal atomic force microscopy (AFM) method driving the second order flexural and the first order torsional vibration simultaneously. The pull-in problem caused by the attractive force is avoided, and the friction dissipation can be imaged near the surface. The friction dissipation coefficient concept is proposed and three different contact states are determined from phase and energy dissipation curves. Image contrast is enhanced in the intermediate setpoint region. The work offers an effective method for directly detecting the friction dissipation and high resolution images, which overcomes the disadvantages of existing methods such as contact mode AFM or other contact friction and wear measuring instruments.

The experimental work on two full-scale precast concrete beam-column corner joints with corbels was carried out and their seismic performance was examined. The first specimen was constructed without steel fiber, while second specimen was constructed by mixed up steel fiber with concrete and placed it at the corbels area. The specimen were tested under reversible lateral cyclic loading up to ±1.5% drift. The experimental results showed that for the first specimen, the cracks start to occur at +0.5% drifts with spalling of concrete and major cracks were observed at corbel while for the second specimen, the initial cracks were observed at +0.75% with no damage at corbel. In this study, it can be concluded that precast beam-column joint without steel fiber has better ductility and stiffness than precast beam-column joint with steel fiber. However, precast beam-column joint with steel fiber has better energy dissipation and fewer cracks at corbel as compared to precast beam-column joint without steel fiber.

<p>Suspended ceiling systems (SCSs) experienced severe damage during strong earthquakes that occurred in recent years. The capacity of the ceiling component is a crucial factor affecting the seismic performance of SCS. Therefore, a series of static tests on suspended ceiling components under monotonic and cyclic loadings were carried out to investigate the seismic performance of the ceiling components. The ceiling components include main tee splices, cross tee latches and peripheral attachments. All specimens were tested under axial loading. Additionally, the static tests of cross tee latches subjected to shear and bending loadings were performed due to their seismic vulnerability. The failure pattern, load-carrying ability, deformation capacity and energy dissipation of the ceiling components are presented in detail in this study.</p>

Precast Prestressed Concrete

Precast monolithic structures are increasingly applied in construction. Such a structure has a performance somewhere between that of a pure precast structure and that of a cast-in-place structure. A precast concrete frame structure is one of the most common prefabricated structural systems. The post-pouring joint is important for controlling the seismic performance of the entire precast monolithic frame structure. This paper investigated the joints of a precast prestressed concrete frame structure. A reversed cyclic loading test was carried out on two precast prestressed concrete beam–column joints that were fabricated with two different concrete strengths in the keyway area. This testing was also performed on a cast-in-place reinforced concrete joint for comparison. The phenomena such as joint crack development, yielding, and ultimate damage were observed, and the seismic performance of the proposed precast prestressed concrete joint was determined. The results showed that the precast prestressed concrete joint and the cast-in-place joint had a similar failure mode. The stiffness, bearing capacity, ductility, and energy dissipation were comparable. The hysteresis curves were full and showed that the joints had good energy dissipation. The presence of prestressing tendons limited the development of cracks in the precast beams. The concrete strength of the keyway area had little effect on the seismic performance of the precast prestressed concrete joints. The precast prestressed concrete joints had a seismic performance that was comparable to the equivalent monolithic system.

The majority of existing ancient timber structures have different degrees of damage. The looseness of mortise-tenon joints is a kind of typical damage type. In order to study the influence of looseness on the seismic performance of mortise-tenon joints, six through-tenon joints and six dovetail-tenon joints with scale 1:3.2 were fabricated according to the requirements of the engineering fabrication method of Chinese Qing Dynasty. Each type of joints consisted of one intact joint and five artificial loose joints, and the artificial defect was made to simulate looseness by cutting the tenon sectional dimension. Based on experiments of two types of joints under low-cyclic reversed loading, the seismic behaviors of joints such as failure modes, hysteretic loops and skeleton curves, strength and stiffness degradation, and energy dissipation capacity were studied. Moreover, the comparative analyses of seismic performance between two types of joints were carried out. The variation tendency of seismic behaviors of two types of joints has similarities, and there are some differences due to their different structural styles. The results indicate that squeeze deformation between tenon and mortise of two types of joints occurred. The shape of hysteretic loops of two types of joints is reverse-Z-shape, and the pinching effect of hysteretic loops becomes more obvious with the increase in looseness, among which of through-tenon joints is more obvious than that of dovetail-tenon joints. The carrying capacity, stiffness, and energy dissipation capacity of loose joints are significantly lower than that of the intact one, and the energy dissipation capacity of dovetail-tenon joints is better than that of through-tenon joints. The rotation angles of two types of joints can reach 0.12 rad, and the loose joints still have great deformation capacity.
