Abstract In today’s construction, the traditional slab is mostly supported by a beam, with a small slab thickness and a large beam depth, and the weight is carried from beam to column. The flat slab allows architects to place partition walls wherever they are needed. It is widely used because it reduces weight, speeds up building, and is cost effective. Similarly, since its inception, the conventional slab has provided benefits such as increased stiffness, increased weight carrying ability, as well as being safe and cost effective. Grid slabs are necessary where the span is greater, and grid beams are provided to lessen the spanning. Grid slabs reduce dead load due to voids and are appropriate for longer spans with heavy loads. The Grid slab is less expensive and provides superior vibration resistance. The project’s goal is to find the most cost-effective slab among standard slab, flat slab with drop, and grid slab. A G+5 Commercial multi-story structure with flat slab, conventional slab, and gird slab was investigated for characteristics such as storey displacement, shear force, bending moment, and storey drift in this study. There are a total of 18 structures examined. The performance and behaviour of all structures in India’s seismic zone III have been investigated with the application of dead load, live load and seismic load. The results of shear force, Bending Moment, story shear, story displacement, story drift and quantity of concrete and steel shows that the overall result values makes flat slab a suitable structure as compared to the conventional and grid slab.

The construction of a 5-stored parking building is planned to use a flat slab (with drop panels). Flat slab (with drop panel) is a type of two-way plate without beams that directly rests on the column. the flat slab can reduce the height of the structure and construction time. However, flat slabs require plates that are thicker than usual to overcome deflection and punching shears. In this final project, a 5-story reinforced concrete structure will be reviewed with a span of 8 x 8.3 m. Analysis and design was carried out with the help of the 2016 ETABS program to find the value of intersection between floors, shear moments and forces taking into account the consequences of dead load, super dead load, life, and earthquake (dynamic)

The Desai thin-layer interface element is widely utilized in the simulation of interaction between piles and soil under seismic load. Conventional seismic analysis using the interface element cannot simulate the process of energy dissipation because tangential damping is disregarded. In this study, Rayleigh damping is added to the interface element to simulate energy dissipation in a strong nonlinear contact behavior. A user-defined element program based on a modified Desai interface element is developed. A hyperbolic model is adopted to simulate normal and tangential interaction behaviors. Certain behavior pattern rules of the modified Desai element, such as bonding, slipping, gapping, and reclosing, are defined. A three-dimensional pile–soil–structure model with a modified Desai interface element is established to investigate the effect of contact patterns on the inner force responses of a superstructure and pile foundation to an earthquake. Numerical results show that the contact patterns significantly influence the shear force, bending moment, and torque of the superstructure, while axial force is unaffected. With regard to the pile foundation, shear force and bending moment are also significantly influenced.

Reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures with open first stories and masonry infill walls at the upper stories are very common in seismic areas. Under strong earthquakes, most of the energy dissipation demand imposed by the earthquake concentrates in the first story, and this eventually leads the building to collapse. A very efficient and cost-effective solution for the seismic upgrading of this type of structure consists of installing hysteretic dampers in the first story. This paper investigates the response of RC soft-story frames retrofitted with hysteretic dampers subjected to near-fault ground motions in terms of maximum displacements and lateral seismic forces and compares them with those obtained by far-field earthquakes. It is found that for similar levels of total seismic input energy, the maximum displacements in the first story caused by near-fault earthquakes are about 1.3 times larger than those under far-field earthquakes, while the maximum inter-story drift in the upper stories and the distribution and values of the lateral forces are scarcely affected. It is concluded that the maximum displacements can be easily predicted from the energy balance of the structure by using appropriate values for the parameter that reflects the influence of the impulsivity of the ground motion: the so-called equivalent number of cycles.

Based on ABAQUS finite element analysis software simulation, the finite element model for dynamic analysis of rigid pile composite foundation and superstructure interaction system is established, which selects the two kinds of models, by simulating the soil dynamic constitutive model, selecting appropriate artificial boundary.The influence of rigid pile composite foundation on balance and imbalance of varying rigidity is analyzed under seismic loads. The result shows that the maximum bending moment and the horizontal displacement of the long pile is much greater than that of the short pile under seismic loads, the long pile of bending moment is larger in the position of stiffness change. By constrast, under the same economic condition, the aseismic performance of of rigid pile composite foundation on balance of varying rigidity is better than that of rigid pile composite foundation on imbalance of varying rigidity.

This work devoted to an ellipsoidal head of pressure vessel under internal pressure load. The analysis is aimed at finding an optimum weight of ellipsoidal head of pressure vessel due to maximum working pressure that ensures its full charge with stresses by using imperialist competitive algorithm and genetic algorithm. In head of pressure vessel the region of its joint with the cylindrical shell is loaded with shear force and bending moments. The load causes high bending stresses in the region of the joint. Therefore, imperialist competitive algorithm was used here to find the optimum shape of a head with minimum weight and maximum working pressure which the shear force and the bending moment moved toward zero. Two different size ellipsoidal head examples are selected and studied. The imperialist competitive algorithm results are compared with the genetic algorithm results.

Abstract The problem of calculating the dynamic response of a one-dimensional distributed parameter system excited by an oscillator traversing the system with an arbitrarily varying speed is investigated. An improved series representation for the solution is derived that takes into account the jump in the shear force at the point of the attachment of the oscillator, which makes it possible to efficiently calculate the distributed shear force and, where applicable, bending moment. The improvement is achieved through the introduction of the “quasi-static” solution, an approximation to the desired one, which makes it possible to apply to the moving oscillator problem the “mode-acceleration” technique conventionally used for acceleration of series in problems related to the steady-state vibration of distributed systems. Numerical results illustrating the efficiency of the method are presented.

The theoretical procedure presented herein examines the influence of retaining the transverse shear force in the yield criterion and rotatory inertia on the dynamic plastic response of beams. Exact theoretical rigid perfectly plastic solutions are presented for a long beam impacted by a mass and a simply supported beam loaded impulsively. It transpires that rotatory inertia might play a small, but not negligible, role on the response of these beams. The results in the various figures indicate that the greatest departure from an analysis which neglects rotatory inertia but retains the influence of the bending moment and transverse shear force in the yield condition is approximately 11 percent for the particular range of parameters considered.
