Telah diterbitkan peraturan gempa yang terbaru, yaitu tata cara perencanaan ketahanan gempa untuk struktur gedung dan non gedung SNI 1726:2019 menggantikan peraturan gempa sebelumnya, SNI 1726:2012. Dalam penelitian ini spektra desain yang ada dalam SNI 1726:2019 dibandingkan dengan spektra desain dalam SNI 1726:2012 dengan mengambil sampling 21 kota besar yang dianggap mewakili seluruh wilayah Indonesia. Dari hasil perbandingan tampak sebagian besar mengalami kenaikan walaupun tidak sedikit yang mengalami penurunan dan ada pula yang tetap. Penerapan faktor amplifikasi Fa menurut SNI 1726:2019 menyebabkan adanya fenomena anomali di daerah-daerah rawan gempa, dimana nilai spektra desain untuk perioda pendek di situs Tanah Lunak (SE) dapat lebih rendah daripada nilai untuk Tanah Sedang (SD) dan Tanah Keras (SC). Fenomena anomali tersebut terjadi di kota-kota dengan SS di atas 0,75 g. Penelitian dilanjutkan dengan melakukan studi komparasi dengan membandingkan besaran gaya gempa yang dihitung menggunakan SNI 1726:2012 dan SNI 1726:2019 terhadap suatu sampel model struktur gedung yang diasumsikan terletak di Jakarta pada kondisi tanah lunak (SE). Terjadi kenaikan base shear desain pada gedung yang dihitung menggunakan SNI 1726:2019 dibandingkan gedung yang dihitung menggunakan SNI 1726:2012 sebesar 128,93% untuk arah x dan 131,23% untuk arah y. Sampel model struktur gedung memiliki level kinerja life safety jika dievaluasi terhadap peraturan gempa SNI 1726:2012 dan mengalami penurunan kinerja dari level life safety ke collapse prevention jika dievaluasi terhadap gempa peraturan baru, SNI 1726:2019.

The infrastructure, existing in Sudan, is mostly not structured or designed to resist seismic forces accordingly. The study investigated the seismic damage of a 5 storey existing reinforced concrete building in Khartoum, Sudan. Three performance levels were considered in the study, which included immediate occupancy, life safety, and collapse prevention. The gravity push was carried out using force control method and lateral push with displacement control, using SAP2000. Pushover analysis produces push curve, consisting of capacity spectrum, demand spectrum, and performance point. It showed the performance level of building components along with maximum base shear carrying capacity. It has been observed that demand curve intersected the capacity curve between the points B and C at the X direction that is life safety level; and between the points B and C at the Y direction that is life safety and collapse prevention level. Therefore, some building elements are needed to be strengthened.

Abstract Aluminum 7xxx series alloys contain zinc as the main alloying element, usually in combination with magnesium and copper. High-strength 7020 alloy is widely used in aerospace structures and is approved by the world’s leading airframe builders. For engineering applications this alloy is generally used in the T651 temper in order to provide maximum strength. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: AL-400. Producer or source: Alcoa Mill Products Inc.

Testing of 25 cosmonauts showed that the amount of resistance training weight loading in long-term space mission influences dynamics of the leg-muscle strength and velocity recovery. On Earth, the loads equal from 70 to 130 % of the body mass is sufficient for keeping up endurance and maximum strength moments of shin and thigh muscles. In the group of cosmonauts who had not used the strength training device or chosen loads less than 30 % of the body mass the leg-muscle maximum strength and thigh endurance were decreased substantially on day 4 of return and all the more by day 15 back on Earth.

This study addresses an alternative use of viscous dampers (VDs) associated with buckling restrained braces (BRBs) as innovative seismic protection devices. For this purpose, 4-, 8- and 12-story steel bare frames were designed with 6.5 m equal span length and 4 m story height. Thereafter, they were seismically improved by mounting the VDs and BRBs in three patterns, namely outer bays, inner bays, and all bays over the frame heights. The structures were modeled using SAP 2000 software and evaluated by the nonlinear time history analyses subjected to the six natural ground motions. The seismic responses of the structures were investigated for the lateral displacement, interstory drift, absolute acceleration, maximum base shear, and time history of roof displacement. The results clearly indicated that the VDs and BRBs reduced seismic demands significantly compared to the bare frame. Moreover, the all-bay pattern performed better than the others.

The present work aims at understanding and modelling some key aspects of the sloshing phenomenon, related to the motion of water inside a container and its effects on the substructure. In particular, the attention is focused on the effects of bottom shapes (flat, sloped and circular) and water depth ratio on the natural sloshing frequencies and damping properties of the inner fluid. To this aim, a series of experimental tests has been carried out on tanks characterised by different bottom shapes installed over a sliding table equipped with a shear load cell for the measurement of the dynamic base shear force. The results are useful for optimising the geometric characteristics of the tank and the fluid mass in order to obtain enhanced energy dissipation performances by exploiting fluid–structure interaction effects.
