This paper presents the nonlinear dynamic simulation analysis of a shaking table test specimen, which was a twelve- story reinforced concrete frame and tested under base excitations representing four earthquake records of increasing intensity. Owing to the length constraint of the paper, three cases are used for the simulation. The numerical simulation of the test model is conducted utilizing the finite element analysis procedure CANNY, and the analysis results include the natural frequency, response history of the frame and the damage evolution. It is concluded from comparisons between experimental results and the numerical simulation ones that the latter matches well with the former, therefore the validity of the analytical method and model for simulation of RC frame shaking table test is proved.

Shaking table test on soil-structure interaction system in harder site condition is presented briefly in this paper. Three-dimensional finite element analysis on shaking table test is carried out using ANSYS program. The surface-to-surface contact element is taken into consideration for the nonlinearity of the state of the interface of the soil-pile and an equivalent linear model is used for soil behavior. By comparing the results of the finite element analysis with the data from shaking table tests, the computational model is validated. Based on the calculation results, the paper gives the seismic responses under the consideration of soil-structure interaction in harder site condition, including acceleration response, contact analysis on soil pile interface and so on.

Pillar electrical equipment is an important part of substations. The application of composite materials in pillar equipment can facilitate the improvement of the seismic performance of electrical equipment. In this paper, the test of elastic modulus and bending rigidity was conducted for individual composite elements in insulators and arresters, and the calculation formula for bending rigidity at the composite flange cementing connections was put forward. The numerical simulation model for the earthquake simulation shaking table test of ±1,100 kV composite pillar insulators was established, in which the bending rigidity value for the flange cementing part was obtained by the test or calculation formula. The numerical simulation results were compared with the earthquake simulation shaking table test results, the dynamic characteristics and seismic response of the model were compared, respectively, the validity of the proposed calculation formula for flange bending rigidity of composite cementing parts was verified, and a convenient and effective means was provided for calculating the seismic performance of composite electrical equipment.

This study is aim to evaluate the seismic response of the motor control center cabinet in a nuclear power plant using shaking table test and 3D finite element analysis method. Three typical types of motor control center cabinet were used in this study and frequency curves and spectral response acceleration were used as the indices of the dynamic response. The results indicated that the resonance frequency for X and Y direction is about 12 Hz and 15 Hz, respectively, which is verified by the numerical results. The frequencies curves and spectral response acceleration generated by numerical and experimental method were similar and well fitting. Although the numerical method obtained the conservative results, the model accurately represents the dynamic characteristics of the actual motor control center cabinet for seismic verification.
