In order to study the parameters influence on seismic behavior of concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) frame with bucking-restrained brace (BRB), the finite element analysis for CFST frame with BRB is studied in this paper, which is performed under low cyclic loading using the software of ABAQUS. Failure model and skeleton curve are comparative analyzed with the related experiment components, verifying that the finite element simulation of the CFST frame with BRB is effective. By changing the axial compression ratio of the column(n) and the steel ratio(α) of the column section respectively, the effect of the structural parameters on the seismic behavior of the CFST frames with BRB had been studied. The results shows that: with the increase of steel ratio of the column section, the lateral ultimate strength and the initial stiffness of the frame get higher, the lateral load(P) versus lateral displacement (Δ) hysteresis curves of the frame get plumper, and the energy dissipation of BRB remain basically unchanged; With the increase of axial compression ratio of the column, the lateral ultimate strength and the hysteretic behavior of the frame become low, whilst the energy dissipated by the BRB get higher.

In this paper, research on I-shaped short pier shear wall model which is the relatively weak seismic system components is presented. According to the results of Finite element software ABAQUS simulation, the influence of the bearing capacity, ductility and skeleton curve behavior on the I-shaped short pier shear wall with concealed bracings is mainly studied under different axial compression ratio and different reinforcement proportion of the concealed bracings. The results indicate that the I-shaped short pier shear wall with concealed bracings has a higher carrying capacity, and the ductility has also been enhanced. And the factor that axial compression ratio, reinforcement proportion of the concealed bracings significantly affect the seismic behavior of the I-shaped short pier shear wall with concealed bracings

In order to learn seismic behavior of partially encased concrete composite columns, experimental study on five H steel partially encased concrete composite columns was carried out under low cyclic loading. The main parameters were the axial compression ratio, steel ratio, shear span ratio. The test results show that deformation ability decreases as axial compression ratio increases; and as steel ratio increases, horizontal bearing capacity and deformation ability increases.

SRC-RC transfer columns are commonly designed as a transition floor for high-rising buildings to transfer from lower SRC columns to upper RC columns. The mechanical performances are studied in the paper using the finite element software of ABAQUS. Nonlinear numerical analyses are made for SRC-RC transfer columns firstly to obtain the relationship between force and displacement at top of the columns. By comparing the analytical results with experimental ones, it is found that the results from finite element analysis coincide well with experimental ones. So ABAQUS software could be used as a supplementary means to simulate SRC-RC transfer columns mechanical behavior. Then the factors such as steel ratio and axial compression ratio are contrastively analyzed. The results show that axial compression ratio has a greater influence on the bearing capacity and hysteretic performance of the structure, but the steel ratio has less influence. Finally, comparisons between SRC-RC and RC columns are also made to demonstrate the mechanical performance of SRC-RC columns further. Conclusions drawn in the study might be useful in practical engineering design.

The influence on columns behaviors of slenderness ratio are analyzed, and the influence on columns’ anti-seismic behavior of axial compression ratio, stirrup ratio and steel form are analyzed through the test on bearing capacity and level load of low cycle reverse of steel reinforced high-strength concrete columns. The bearing capacity of the long columns reduces along with the slenderness ratio increasing and augments along with concrete strength increasing. Probability of suddenly destruct increases along with the column slenderness ratio augmenting through the test. In addition, anti-seismic behavior of columns are effected not only axial compression ratio, but also steel form. Axial compression coefficien of the steel reinforced high-strength concrete columns with different steel form may be adjusted, however, the influence of stirrup ratio is very little on anti-seismic behavior of columns.

In traditional building construction, the structural columns restrict the design of the buildings and the layout of furniture, so the use of specially shaped columns came into being. The finite element model of a reinforced concrete framework using specially shaped columns was established by using the ABAQUS software. The effects of concrete strength, reinforcement ratio, and axial compression ratio on the seismic performance of the building incorporating such columns were studied. The numerical analysis was performed for a ten-frame structure with specially shaped columns under low reversed cyclic loading. The load-displacement curve, peak load, ductility coefficient, energy dissipation capacity, and stiffness degradation curve of the specially shaped column frame were obtained using the ABAQUS finite element software. The following three results were obtained from the investigation: First, when the strength of concrete in the specially shaped column frame structure was increased, the peak load increased, while the ductility and energy dissipation capacity weakened, which accelerated the stiffness degradation of the structure. Second, when the reinforcement ratio was increased in the specially shaped column frame structure, the peak load increased and the ductility and energy dissipation capacity also increased, which increased the stiffness of the structure. Third, when the axial compression ratio was increased in the structure, the peak load increased, while ductility and energy dissipation capacity reduced, which accelerated the degradation of structural stiffness.

In order to study the seismic performance of precast short-leg shear wall connected by grouting sleeves (PSSW), the three-dimensional numerical model was established by using the experiment of PSSW subjected to low cyclic loading. Based on good agreement between numerical results and experimental results, the numerical analysis models with different structural parameters of axial compression ratio and splicing position were designed in detail, and the effects of various parameters on the seismic performance of PSSW were analyzed. The results show that the PSSW exhibits wide and stable hysteresis loops, indicating a satisfactory hysteretic performance and an excellent energy consumption capacity. With the increase of the axial compression ratio, the shear capacity of horizontal splice seam is improved, but the ductility coefficient and total energy consumption decrease obviously. The most disadvantageous position of PSSW can be effectively avoided by changing the position of the post pouring seam. The bearing capacity of the specimens is basically stable, and the energy consumption increases significantly, so the post pouring seam of precast wall is recommended to be far away from the bottom section of the wall. In addition, the failure mechanism of different splicing positions was analyzed in detail.

In this paper, in order to understand fully the development of failure mechanism, bearing capacity and seismic performance of the steel H-beams and composite concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) column joints strengthened by outside strengthening ring, in the space zone the effects of changing the axial compression ratio is investigated. A 3D joint finite element model is built up by finite element software ABAQUS, the elastic-plastic finite element analysis is carried through numerical modeling process. The analysis results showed that low axial compression ratio has a little influence on the bearing capacity; with the increase of axial pressure the bearing capacity will decrease in a high axial compression ratio, moreover the failure pattern of joint changes from beam end to column end. The ductility of the specimens is decreased by raising axial compression ratio.

This paper studied the shear behavior of the connections with external stiffening rings between square steel tubular columns and steel beams by experimental, numerical and analytical methods. Two connections with external stiffening rings were tested under low cyclic loading to investigate the effect of axial compression ratio on the shear behavior and capacity of the connection. The test result showed that the change of the axial compression ratio had little effect on the shear capacity of the connection while the ductility of the connection was decreasing with the increase of the axial compression ratio. Seven nonlinear finite element models were designed to investigate the seismic behavior of the connection under cyclic test. Parametric studies are carried out to study the influence of the following parameters on the shearing capacity and deformation in panel zone: the width and the height of the steel tube in panel zone and the thickness of the external stiffening rings. Finally, based on the model considering the post-buckling strength of the web of the steel tube in panel zone, a calculation formula was fitted by the results of the finite element simulation.
