In this paper, an analytical method of the beam with springs and dampers fixed at the ends was proposed based on equivalent single degree of freedom (SDOF) system and secondary Lagrange’s dynamic equations, in order to develop a new effective method to enhance the aseismic capability of underground structures. The dynamic response of elastically supported and damply supported beams subjected to both seismic loading and static axial loading was analyzed by the proposed analytical procedure. The theoretical results were validated by the numerical simulation. In order to further investigate the effects of springs and dampers fixed at the ends of the columns in nonlinear response situation, the 3D nonlinear seismic responses of the Dakai metro station structure with and without the isolators were analyzed by ABAQUS respectively. It is demonstrated that: (1) the proposed analytical procedure can predict the dynamic response of beams with elastic and damper supports subjected to both seismic loading and axial loading. (2) Setting isolators at the supports of the column could enhance the aseismic capability of the structure effectively. (3) The axial static loading induced by the gravity of the soil and structure provide the constraint on the column, and therefore could not be neglected in the structural dynamic analysis.

En este artículo se describe una metodología basada en el método de estimación puntual de Rosenblueth para el análisis del empuje activo desarrollado en un muro de retención con relleno cohesivo-friccionante bajo condiciones de carga sísmica. El principio básico de esta metodología es usar dos estimaciones puntales, i.e., la desviación estándar y el valor medio, para examinar una variable en el análisis de seguridad. Es posible mostrar que aumentando el valor del coeficiente de aceleración sísmica horizontal, el factor de seguridad por volteo decrece y la probabilidad de falla aumenta, especialmente para coeficientes mayores que 0.2. Por otro lado, es observado que el valor medio del factor de seguridad crece cuando aumenta el coeficiente de aceleración sísmica vertical, sin embargo la probabilidad de falla se mantiene prácticamente igual para el valor del factor de seguridad considerado como crítico (1.15).

As for thin walled cylindrical liquid storage tanks in nuclear power plants, the current elastic design guideline against seismic loading might result in too conservative component design as compared with elasto-plastic design in general industries. Therefore, it is thought possible to make the design guideline more reasonable by taking dynamic response reduction into account. In this series of study, experiments using scaled models were carried out, and seismic behavior of thin walled cylindrical liquid storage tanks was simulated to investigate energy absorption capacity and seismic resistance of those tanks. In this 3rd report of series of studies, seismic behavior of tanks was simulated to estimate a dynamic response reduction factor. This factor is based on the energy absorption capacity of structures. Through experiments and numerical study, a response reduction factor to design thin walled cylindrical liquid storage tanks has been proposed.
