Seismic Damage Assessment

Abstract The seismic damage state of building structure can be evaluated by observing the fundamental period change of structure. Firstly, the fundamental period calculation formula that adapts to the deformation pattern and distribution mode of horizontal seismic action for reinforced concrete frame structure is derived. Secondly, the seismic damage assessment standard of building structure considering period variation is established. Then, the seismic damage assessment method of building structure is constructed. Finally, the seismic damage example is used to verify the established evaluation method. The results show that the established research method has high accuracy and good engineering practicability.

Abstract This paper presents the result of using an experimental spatial matrix identification method to predict the dynamics of a frame structure under a different boundary condition. The single-input-multiple-output frequency response functions of the test structure under the free-free boundary condition are measured by hammer testing. Using the FRFs, a set of spatial matrices is determined to represent its structural dynamic characteristics by the method. Then, using the identified spatial matrices, the dynamic characteristics of the test structure under the boundary condition of clamping 4 points is predicted. The prediction is practically accurate. The result of the prediction demonstrates that the spatial matrices identified by the method can be used for structural modification and substructure synthesis in the field of computer aided mechanical engineering.

Wave Response

Since Japan is limited in area, the effective ocean space development is very important and urgent subject. Concerning a research and development of effective ocean space utilization, the MEGA-FLOAT was one of the most famous projects in Japan that had the purpose of a floating airport construction, and the numerous R & D were conducted aiming at actual construction and those results were reported in respect of conceptual design, construction method, fluid analysis, structural dynamic analysis, environment issue etc. However, the end was faced without achieving it, it can be said that the effect is large. After the end of that project, the realistic, small or medium size structure began to be paid to attention. As the good example of such a kind floating structure, floating pier and disaster prevention base having an advantage against an earthquake, floating restaurant etc. were constructed shown in Figure 1. In this paper, assuming the small size floating restaurant, the wave response analysis was studied, and the habitability of that structure was evaluated from the response calculation results. Concretely, the floating base part; barge type of the restaurant building was designed by the Class NK (Rules and Guidance for the survey and construction of steel ships, Part Q Steel barges). The calculation model consists of a three-story building and the base, that floating artificial base supporting the building was assumed by the elastic plate structural system, and also that building was of the frame structure system. In order to structural analysis, the restaurant model of two different structural systems was united into one body system. In this paper, it is called the hybrid structural system. Fluid effect was analyzed as the fluid-structural interaction problem. Concretely, the Boundary Integral Equation Method (BIEM) was used here, and the wave response calculation was demonstrated by that forces. The evaluation of habitability of the restaurant in vertical and horizontal motion was examined by the diagram proposed from our research results.

Stiffness And Damping

For an assembled structure with many bolted joints, predicting its dynamic response with high fidelity is always a difficult problem, because of the nonlinearity introduced by friction contact between jointed interfaces. The friction contact results in nonlinear stiffness and damping to a structure. To realize predictive simulation in structural dynamic design, these nonlinear behaviors must be carefully considered. In this paper, the dynamics of a multi-bolt jointed beam is calculated. A modified IWAN constitutive model, which can consider both tangential micro/macro slip and nonzero residual stiffness at macroslip phase, is developed to model nonlinear contact behaviors due to joint interfaces. A whole interface element integrating the proposed constitutive model is developed. The element is used to model the nonlinear stiffness and damping caused by bolted joints. The interface element is placed between the two contact interfaces. The other part of the beam is modeled by linear beam elements. A Matlab code is developed to realize the proposed nonlinear finite element dynamic analysis method. A hammer impact experiment for the bolt-jointed beam is conducted under different excitation force levels. The calculated nonlinear numerical results are compared with experimental results. It is shown that the effect of joint nonlinearity on structural dynamics can be observed from the response predicted by the proposed method. The numerical results agree well with the experimental results. This work validates the necessary of using nonlinear joint model for dynamic simulation of jointed structures.

This paper presents the results of using an experimental spatial matrix identification method to predict the dynamics of a frame structure under various boundary conditions. The single-input-multiple-output frequency response functions (FRFs) of the test structure under the free-free boundary condition are measured by hammer testing. Using the FRFs, a set of spatial matrices is constructed in order to represent the structural dynamic characteristics of the system by the new method. Using the spatial matrices, the dynamic characteristics of the test structure under the boundary condition of clamping 4 points is predicted. The prediction is adequately accurate for practical application. The results of the prediction demonstrate that the spatial matrices identified by this method can be used for structural modification and substructure synthesis in the field of computer-aided mechanical engineering.

A new method is proposed to identify multi-axial seismic loadings from structural dynamic responses on limited degrees of freedom. The seismic loadings acting on structures are modeled by Hartley series approximation, and the sensitivities of structural dynamic response with respect to the unknown approximation coefficients are derived. The identification equation is set up based on best fitting structural measured and calculated responses, and is solved with the damped least-squares method. A five-story three-dimensional steel frame structure excited by El-Centro seismic accelerations is studied for validating the proposed method. Numerical simulations with measurement noise and model errors show that the proposed method can accurately identify all seismic loadings from only several responses of the structure.

Pinching Effect

Infilled wall is usually used to separate the housing space and it has greatly affected the structural dynamic characteristics. Considering the infilled wall and the frame structure working together, the structure's response under the earthquake is simulated. In this paper, taking the stiffness, strength degradation and pinching effect of structural elements together into account, the authors adopt Reinhorn-Valle damage model to conduct earthquake damage analysis. The result shows that the infilled wall can mitigate earthquake’s damage of main structural component effectively.
