Aiming at the problem of dynamic analysis of SSI system, the dynamic influence of different parts of foundation soil is studied on the linear elastic assumption according to the actual mechanism of Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI); in addition, a simplified model on the condition of the lumped mass method is put forward and the corresponding motion equations of SSI system are built, which can be a reference for the structural seismic design method considering SSI effect.

Inclusion of ground motion–induced uncertainty in structural response evaluation is an essential component for performance-based earthquake engineering. In current practice, ground motion uncertainty is often represented in performance-based earthquake engineering analysis empirically through the use of one or more ground motion suites. How to quantitatively characterize ground motion–induced structural response uncertainty propagation at different seismic hazard levels has not been thoroughly studied to date. In this study, a procedure to quantify the influence of ground motion uncertainty on elastoplastic single-degree-of-freedom acceleration responses in an incremental dynamic analysis is proposed. By modeling the shape of the incremental dynamic analysis curves, the formula to calculate uncertainty in maximum acceleration responses of linear systems and elastoplastic single-degree-of-freedom systems is constructed. This closed-form calculation provided a quantitative way to establish statistical equivalency for different ground motion suites with regard to acceleration response in these simple systems. This equivalence was validated through a numerical experiment, in which an equivalent ground motion suite for an existing ground motion suite was constructed and shown to yield statistically similar acceleration responses to that of the existing ground motion suite at all intensity levels.

This study serves to estimate the seismic capacity of the reinforced concrete containment building considering its bidirectional cyclic effect and variations of energy. The implementation of the capacity estimation has been performed by extending two well-known methods: nonlinear static pushover and incremental dynamic analysis. The displacement and dissipated energy demands are obtained from the static pushover analysis considering bidirectional cyclic effect. In total, 18 bidirectional earthquake intensity parameters are developed to perform the incremental dynamic analysis for the reinforced concrete containment building. Results show that the bidirectional static pushover analysis tends to decrease the capacity of the reinforced concrete containment building in comparison with unidirectional static pushover analysis. The 5% damped first-mode geometric mean spectral acceleration strongly correlates with the maximum top displacement of the containment building. The comparison of the incremental dynamic analysis and static pushover curves is employed to determine the seismic capacity of the reinforced concrete containment building. It is concluded that bidirectional static pushover and incremental dynamic analysis studies can be used in performance evaluation and capacity estimation of reinforced concrete containment buildings under bidirectional earthquake excitations.

This paper deals with static and dynamic analysis of asymmetric high-rise building. Two alternatives have been analysed – without dilatation and with dilatation. Then, the influence of the dilatation was discussed. The building was located in 4th seismic area in Slovakia (Bratislava). The description of the building, applied load, considered soil-structure interaction, created calculating models, used analysis and obtained results are mentioned here. The conclusions and the photos of defective repairs of real structures are depicted at the end of the paper.

Zusammenfassung In diesem Beitrag wird eine einfache Modellierungsstrategie zur schnellen und effizienten Berechnung der dynamischen Antwort von Brücken zufolge der Überfahrt mit Hochgeschwindigkeitszügen vorgestellt. Dabei wird sowohl die Boden-Bauwerk-Interaktion als auch die Wirkung des Zuges während der Zufahrphase auf das Tragwerk beziehungsweise nach dem Abfahren berücksichtigt. Im mechanischen Modell wird die Brücke als Bernoulli-Euler -Balken, welcher von den statischen Achslasten des Hochgeschwindigkeitszugs überfahren wird, beschrieben. Feder und Dämpfer an den Rändern des Balkens bilden das Verhalten des Untergrunds ab. Die Ergebnisse eines Anwendungsbeispiels zeigen, dass die Boden-Bauwerk-Interaktion die berechnete dynamische Antwort wesentlich beeinflusst.
