Research on Prediction Method of Steel Frame-Reinforced Concrete Shear Wall Hybrid Structure Earthquake Response Based on Energy Concept
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.
