Dynamic Nonlinear Analysis

The randomness and uncertainty of seismic demand and structural capacity are considered in demand-capacity factor method (DCFM) which could give confidence level of different performance objectives. Evaluation steps of investigating seismic performance of steel reinforced concrete structures with DCFM are put forward, and factors in calculation formula are modified based on stress characteristics of SRC structures. A regular steel reinforced concrete frame structure is analyzed and the reliability level satisfying four seismic fortification targets are calculated. The evaluation results of static and dynamic nonlinear analysis are compared which indicates that the SRC frame has better seismic performance and incremental dynamic analysis could reflect more dynamic characteristics of structures than pushover method.

Story Drift

A new model that can simulate the behavior of construction joint subjected to seismic forces was proposed. Nonlinear time-history analysis was carried out for reinforced concrete regular frame structures designed in different seismic intensity regions as well as with different height-to-width ratios. Two kinds of numerical models are adopted to simulate the seismic behavior of each frame, one with construction joint using the new proposed model and the other without construction joint using the conventional model. Results show that the influence of construction joint on the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete frame is strongly related to structural nonlinearity. It may increase the top displacement and the inter-story drift, change the inter-story drift distributions, and exacerbated the local reaction of key members. The influence of construction joint cannot be ignored for structures with low emergency capacity against major earthquake. Seismic design suggestions are proposed from the aspect of calculation analysis method.

A steel reinforced concrete frame-concrete core wall structure is taken as the research object in this paper. The whole space finite element models are established by software ETABS, modal analysis, response spectrum method and elastic time-history analysis are conducted. And static elastio-plastic time history analysis of the high-rise structure is conducted by software MIDAS/GEN. Seismic response of the high-rise structure is analyzed under medium earthquake and rare earthquake , elastic deformation is calculated under conventional earthquake and elastic-plastic deformation is calculated under rare earthquake. The results show that the structure can meet the requirements of no-damage under light earthquake, repairable under medium earthquake and no-collapse under strong earthquake.
