Aims: The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the behavior of slit friction hybrid dampers (SFHD) on steel structures. Therefore, the behavior moment resisting steel frames of structures in original stats and structures equipped with hybrid damper with two different types of behavior was analyzed and evaluated. Background: The recent study evaluated the combined effect of shear-friction dampers and slit dampers with measurements of non-uniform strips in seismic protection for different levels of energy. The recent study was carried out a about hybrid dampers, consisting of friction and split dampers in response to small and large earthquakes. Previous results have shown the ability of inactive hybrid systems in improving the reaction of structures to traditional lateral-systems. Kim and Shin showed that structures consisted of hybrid dampers needed less repair cost and time. Methods: Pushover and time history were carried out on original structures and structures equipped with dampers, in 5 and 10 stories structures. Results: Analysis about the probability of collapse showed about 30% and 84%. Conclusion: According to the result, by adding the SFHD, increased stiffness by 17% in retrofitted structures such as drift and displacement of roof decreases by 27% and 20% in push over analysis, respectively. Also, displacement in time history analysis up to 55% reduces in average. Also, the results of the IDA show that adding the SFHD to structures significantly increases by 55% the spectral acceleration capacity in structures.

In recent studies, spectral matching is the most commonly proposed method for selecting earthquake records for time-history analysis of structures. However, until now, there have been no serious investigations of the effects of coordinate values on the scaling of ground motions. This paper investigated the influence of using arithmetic and logarithmic values of response spectra in spectral matching procedures (i.e., ASM and LSM methods) on the results of nonlinear structural time-history analysis. Steel moment resisting frame structures of the 3-, 9-, and 20-stories, which represent low-, medium-, and high-rise buildings, respectively, were used as examples. Structural benchmark responses were determined by calculating the arithmetic mean and median of peak interstory drift ratio (PIDR) demands based on the three record sets developed by the American SAC Steel Project. The three record sets represent seismic hazard levels with 50%, 10%, and 2% probabilities exceeded in 50 years, and their average acceleration spectra were also taken as the target spectrum. Moreover, another 40 record components for selection were scaled both by ASM and LSM methods. The seven components whose spectra were best compatible with the target spectra were selected for the structural time-history analysis. The scale factors obtained by the LSM method are nearly larger than that of the ASM method, and their ranking and selection of records are different. The estimation accuracies of structural mean (median) responses by both methods can be controlled within an engineering acceptable range (±20%), but the LSM method may cause larger structural responses than the ASM method. The LSM method has a better capacity for reducing the variability of structural responses than the ASM method, and this advantage is more significant for longer-period structures (e.g., 20-story structure) with more severe nonlinear responses.

This paper presents the simulation of the influence of viscoelastic fluid dampers, with nonlinear damping properties, on damping property of a ten stories building structure. The study was made using Finite Elements Method and ANSYS program, on a 3d F.E.M. model. In order to obtain the influence of different types of damping nonlinearities of the viscoelastic fluid dampers on the damping property of the entire structure, there were made different types of simulations using modal analysis and seismic time history analysis. The graphics obtained can be used for determining the nonlinear features of fluid dampers for achieving different degrees of seismic energy dissipation for the analyzed building.

ABSTRAKPenggunaan bresing tahan tekuk dapat menjadi solusi atas kebutuhan struktur tahan gempa di Indonesia. Disipasi energi pada elemen bresing tahan tekuk dilakukan melalui kinerja plastifikasi bagian inti bresing akibat beban tarik dan tekan. Penelitian ini berisi kajian kinerja dari bangunan rangka baja beraturan dengan bresing tahan tekuk (BRB) dengan variasi level ketinggian lantai yaitu 3 lantai, 8 lantai dan 15 lantai. Analisis struktur 3D dilakukan dengan dua prosedur analisis yaitu modal pushover dan nonlinear time history pada program ETABS. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pemilihan elemen BRB sangat mempengaruhi kinerja struktur, yang terlihat dari pola drift yang terjadi. Untuk struktur beraturan dengan berbagai ketinggian, tingkat kinerja struktur dengan BRB cukup baik, yaitu Immediate Occupancy (IO) akibat beban gempa rencana. Plastifikasi hanya terjadi pada BRB, dan kelelehan pada balok mulai terbentuk sampai mekanisme keruntuhan terjadi. Hasil modal pushover dengan nonlinear time history pada bangunan 15 lantai yang cukup mirip menunjukkan bahwa modal pushover dapat digunakan untuk memprediksi kinerja struktur BRB yang beraturan.Kata kunci: kinerja struktur, bresing tahan tekuk, immediate occupancy, modal pushover, nonlinear time history ABSTRACTBuckling restrained braces (BRB) can be an alternative solution for earthquake resistant steel structure in Indonesia. The energy dissipation for buckling restrained elements is conducted through yielding of the core due to tension or compression forces. This study presents an evaluation of the structural performance of steel structures with BRB varying in heights, 3-story, 8-story and 15-story. The 3D structural analysis was carried out with ETABS software using 2 methods, Modal Pushover and Nonlinear Time History. The results shows that the selection of BRB elements greatly affected the structural performance, showed by the drift pattern. For regular structures with variation in heights, structures with BRB behaved satisfactory under the design load with the performance level of Immediate Occupancy (IO). Yielding was limited to BRB members, and afterwards the yielding occurred on beams until collapse. The results of modal pushover and time history analysis for 15-story structure are similar, thus modal pushover can be used to predict the performance of regular structural system with BRB.Keywords: structural performance, buckling restrained brace, immediate occupancy, modal pushover analysis, nonlinear time history analysis

In this study, the seismic capacity of a hybrid damper, composed of a steel slit plate damper and two shape memory alloy bars, is investigated through fragility analysis and life-cycle cost evaluation of a steel frame retrofitted with the damper. The nonlinear time history analysis model frames show that the seismic responses of the frames equipped with hybrid damper are significantly lesser than the frames retrofitted with conventional slit dampers. The enhancement in the seismic performance of frames retrofitted with hybrid damper is because of extra stiffness, energy dissipation, and self-centering capability provided by the shape memory alloy bars. It is also observed that the life-cycle cost of the frames equipped with hybrid dampers is smallest compared with the life-cycle cost of the bare frames and the frames equipped with slit dampers, even though the initial cost is of the hybrid damper is higher than that of the conventional slit damper.
