The basal theory of energy method is introduced, which makes use of the idea of energy balance to study the earthquake response of structures. Because of the high stiffness and low-cost of the steel frame-reinforced concrete shear wall hybrid structure, it is being widely used. But the study of the earthquake response prediction method of the structure has not been done yet. In this paper, energy method is used to study the earthquake response of the steel frame-reinforced concrete shear wall hybrid structure. A steel frame structure and a steel frame-reinforced concrete shear wall hybrid structure have been designed. The shear wall in steel frame-reinforced concrete shear wall hybrid structure is simplified as a column for easier study. In order to evaluate the results of the energy method, the time history analysis method is also used to study the earthquake response of the two structures. The shear coefficient, maximal interlaminar displacement and damage ratio of the two structures are studied. After comparison, it is found that the results of energy method and the time history analysis method are almost the same. The energy method can be easily used to study the earthquake response of the steel frame-reinforced concrete shear wall hybrid structure.

The design process of the 100 m high reinforced concrete masonry building in China was firstly presented, deformation check calculation under earthquake action by mode-superposition response spectrum method and time-history analysis method were detailed and deformation under wind load was also checked. Then elastic-plastic deformation under earthquake action was checked by time-history analysis method and pushover analysis method with both under uniform load and reverse triangle load. The conclusion is construct 100 m high office building built in Fortification intensity 6 by reinforced concrete masonry is feasible. Then the building was redesigned as built in fortification 7, the same check was performed as that have been done in fortification 6, it is feasible too.

With the hybrid structure including outer steel grids and inner reinforced concrete core tubes (RCCT) as the background, the key problems involved in the performance-based structural design are analyzed and the table test is conducted. Anti-seismic and stability indicators are defined based on the structural characteristics; The research on seismic response is made through elastic-plastic time-history analysis and verified through the table test; The overall stability of the outer steel grids and the anti-collapse capability following the ineffectiveness of some key components are analyzed. Results show that the structure in which the outer steel grids are connected with internal steel frame and RCCT is practicable, and the said three systems can work together effectively; The time-history analysis shows that the structure is weak at the elevation of 5-15m but can still meet the expected anti-seismic target under rare earthquakes. The space steel structure features sound stability and high redundancy, which ensures the structure will not collapse even if several key components are damaged.

The analysis on earthquake response of one multi-tower isolation structure with an enlarged base in rare earthquake and aftershocks was carried out using elastic time history analysis method. It includes the damping effect of structure, plastic deformation of members and plastic hinges distribution in structure. The results show that isolation structure comes to plastic state under rare earthquake lighter, vertical elements remain flexible under earthquake aftershocks, the plastic hinges on horizontal members are deepen, but the structure can meet the requirement while it is renovated. Plastic hinges first appear in the bottom of structure, then they gradually develop upwards, Plastic hinges are generated at the ends of beams, but not occur in columns and walls. The displacement of structure under rare earthquake is mainly concentrated on isolation layer and it can take energy consumption by large displacement.

Abstract The composite wall with encased steel braces (ESB wall) is a novel type of steel–concrete composite wall that consists of a steel braced frame embedded in reinforced concrete. This arrangement is supposed to enhance the seismic performance of the wall, as the steel columns encased in the boundary elements can increase the flexural strength of the wall and the steel braces encased in the web can increase the shear strength. ESB walls have seen use in super tall building structures constructed in regions of high seismicity. The ESB walls are commonly used on stories where the shear force demand is very high. Currently, no design guidelines exist for the design of ESB Walls in the Eurocode. More research is required before a distinct set of guidelines can be prescribed for the design of ESB Walls. The present research will investigate behavior of composite walls with encased steel braces (ESB walls). Time history analysis will be performed to examine the shear strength and stiffness of the ESB walls. In this study, two frames with three floors and five floors will be modeled in ABAQUS software. Then the X- shaped braces and inverted V brace is added to frames. Later, reinforced concrete shear wall will be added to braced frames, so the steel braces encased in the reinforced concrete shear wall. Time history analysis, on the braced frames will be done Compare and note with each other. The results of the study are in good agreement with those of previous studies. However, none of these studies examined the effect of using V- and X-shaped struts and shear walls simultaneously, nor did they examine which struts reinforce the structures more strongly against earthquake vibrations. This has led the study to examine the effect of these reinforcements under various earthquakes. In future studies, reinforced concrete structures can also be used in addition to steel structures, and the results can be compared. In addition, these braces can also be used in other parts of the building. To meet this objective, one can use the very important data provided in this thesis, and ultimately better and more accurate results can be extracted using this approach. The main aim of this thesis is to study the effect of increasing the number of floors on how to extend the stress on the building structure. To this end, the number of floors increased from three to five. Therefore, it can be concluded that an increase in the number of floors also more than 5 storey causes stress values, but these modes are quite consistent with the three- and five-storey buildings.

In developing countries, the need for shelter, working area, shopping and entertainment centers is increasing due to the increasing population effect. In order to meet this need, it is necessary to turn to high-rise buildings. Significant damages have been observed as a result of insufficient horizontal displacement stiffness of high-rise buildings in major earthquakes in previous years. It is known that as the height of the structure increases, the displacement demand of the structure also increases. Since it is accepted that the structure will make inelastic deformation in the design of the structure, these displacements increase to very high levels as the number of stories increases. For this reason, damages can be much higher than expected. In order to limit the level of damage that may occur in high-rise buildings, the horizontal displacement of buildings is limited in many regulations in our age. This limitation is possible by increasing the rigidity of the structures against horizontal displacement. In recent years, the use of shear wall has increased due to the horizontal displacement limitation in the regulations. The use of shear walls in buildings limits the horizontal displacement. However, the choice of where the shear walls will be placed on the plan is very important. Failure to place the shear walls correctly may result in additional loads in the structure. It can also lead to torsional irregularity. In this study, a 10-storey reinforced concrete building model was created. Shear wall at the rate of 1% of the plan area of the building was used in the building. The shear walls are arranged in different geometric shapes and different layouts. The earthquake analysis of 5 different models were performed. Equivalent Earthquake Load, Mode Superposition and Time History Analysis methods were used for earthquake analysis. The results were compared and a proposal was made for the geometry and configuration of the shear wall.

The Newmark seismic time-history analysis method can take into account the effects of natural seismic peak ground acceleration (PGA), duration, and seismic frequency; seismic wave can be input into the method for simulation. This study calculates the dynamic response of the typical seabed slope of Caofeidian in the event of a similar Tangshan earthquake, and the displacement value can be used to quantitatively reflect the influence of the earthquake on the slope of the site. The allowable displacement value of the top of buildings or submarine slope can be used as a marker of security and stability analysis, which can further provide important reference for similar slope stability evaluation and offshore engineering construction.
