In this study, effect of analysis variables on structural integrity of nuclear piping under beyond design basis earthquake was investigated via performing dynamic time history seismic analysis. A finite element model of the piping system such as shut-down cooling line was developed combining solid and beam elements. Dynamic time history analysis was performed via finite element elastic plastic stress analysis. Validity of the dynamic time history analysis procedure was verified via comparing with the previous study results. Finally, the effect of analysis variables such as finite element characteristics, transition length between elbow and straight line, fluid effect, etc. was investigated via performing parametric dynamic time history seismic analysis. As a result, it was found that use of the 1st incompatible element is recommended, the transition length is the same as curvature of the elbow, and fluid has to be considered.

The finite element software ABAQUS is used to establish the seismic time-history analysis model of the utility tunnel joints. The viscoelastic boundary is employed to input the seismic wave through the equivalent nodal force. Considering the nonlinearity of the soil and concrete materials, the internal force of the cross-shaped utility tunnel is calculated, and the influence effect and influence range of the cross joints of the utility tunnel are also studied. Studies have shown that the internal forces near the cross joints increase significantly. The research has certain reference value for the seismic design of the cross joints in utility tunnel.

The current performance-based seismic assessment procedure can be computationally intensive as it requires many time history analyses (THA) each requiring time intensive post-processing of results. Time history analysis is a part of structural analysis and is the calculation of the response of a structure to any earthquake. It is one of the main processes of structural design in regions where earthquakes are prevalent. The objective of this study is to evaluate the seismic performance of embankment dam located on the Oued RHISS in the Province of AL HOCEIMA using the THA method. To monitor structural behavior, the seismic vulnerability of structure is evaluated under real earthquake records with considering the soil-structure-fluide interaction. In this study, a simple assistant program is developed for implementing earthquake analyses of structure with ANSYS, ground acceleration–time history data are used for seismic analysis and dynamic numerical simulations were conducted to study and identify the total response of the soil-structure system.

Abstract The independent support motion response spectrum method (ISM) is currently used for seismic analysis to calculate the response of multiply supported piping with independent inputs of support excitations. This approach may derive considerable overestimation in the combination of group responses under the absolute sum rule of NUREG-1061 [1]. Then authors have developed an advanced method of the ISM approach named SATH (Spectrum Method Assisted by Time History Analysis). In the SATH method, both of floor response spectra and time histories of floor acceleration are used as independent inputs of support excitations. The group responses are summed with correlation coefficients which are calculated by considering each time history of modal response by independent inputs of support excitations. In this paper, the necessity of taking the effects of correlation coefficients for the group responses into account in the ISM approach is examined. The SATH method has advantage to derive a more realistic sum rule of the group responses and applicability for the actual design.

Story Building

Due to the urbanization multi-story building with underground story for parking space and storage are very common in practice. Now a day, seismic energy dissipating devices are being used for various types of structures and located in basements which are difficult to maintain.  The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of horizontal dampers in the ground floor level of the multi-story building above basement. Among different types of dampers, visco-elastic [VE] dampers are used for this numerical study. Comparing with other types of passive energy dissipating devices, visco-elastic [VE] dampers are considered most suitable. For the better understanding of the effectiveness of horizontal dampers, stiff foundation system is considered thus soil-structure interaction is omitted. In this numerical study, seismic response of different hypothetical structures analyzed having different underground stories and horizontal dampers only in the ground level. Modeling and analysis of the structures and installation of the dampers are done by using finite element modeling software [ETABS]. Time history analysis was used to simulate the response of the structures. Sabah earthquake [05/June/2015] with the PGA of 0.126g was used for the time history analysis. Different dynamics parameters such as natural time period, displacement, base shear and inter-story drift were evaluated. Changes in the results among the structures demonstrated the efficiency of horizontal dampers. Optimum locations of the horizontal dampers were also revealed in this study in the basis of the analysis results.

Currently, it is considered that seismic actions act independently in two or three main directions orthogonal to each other, applying them to the building, without this necessarily being valid. It is for such, that seismic analysis of buildings should consider the bidirectional effects that seismic actions have, being possible if an angle of real incidence of each seismic action was considered, to estimate the maximum effects of the structural elements. These effects will be analyzed by using the linear time-history analysis of 11 structures with different rigidities and eccentricities in both directions, using angles of incidence every 10° and 20 Peruvian seismic records between very rigid, intermediate and soft soils obtained from data base of CISMID and IGP. Afterwards, a non-linear time-history analysis will be carried out, which will be applied to one of the 11 structures and use angles of incidence every 10° and a seismic record. Likewise, 2 models will be made to scale so that they are tested on a platform of six degrees of freedom, entering the records of the accelerations in their three directions. The maximum responses of all the verifications will be compared with the maximum response of the spectral modal analysis obtaining linear rules for amplification factors. Finally, it will be obtained a relation between the spectral modal analysis and the time-history analysis that consider the effects of the bidirectionality and the angle of incidence in reinforced concrete structures.

The purpose of this paper is to justify that it is necessary to take into account physical and mechanical properties of soil and different materials of erected structures for damping vibrations in dynamic loads, and to suggest tools for modelling the damping effect (natural or engineering induced) between foundation and soil. A technique is suggested for modelling the behavior of structure in time history analysis taking into account material damping. When solving this problem, the following results were obtained: the physical meaning of material damping was described; Rayleigh damping coefficients were computed through modal damping coefficients. Numerical analysis was carried out for the structure together with soil in earthquake load. Time history analysis was carried out for the problem. Peak values of displacement, speed and acceleration at the roof levels were compared. Analysis results were compared (with and without taking into account material damping). Significant influence of damping on the stress-strain state of the structure has been confirmed.

This paper investigates effects of the seismic load to a structure. The article describes main methods of the definition and practical application of the seismic load based on the Standard Eurocode 8. There was made a comparison of all methods using the same structure. A simple two-storeyed concrete 2D-frame with fixed joints was chosen. A one another model with rigid beams for some calculations was defined. The second model can be used for hand-calculations as a cantilever with two masses. The paper describes main dynamic properties of the chosen structure. Seismic load was defined by lateral force method, modal response spectrum, non-linear time-history analysis and pushover analysis. The time-history analysis is represented by accelerograms. There were made linear and non-linear calculations.
