Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF) is one of several types of braces that can be used in steel building. EBF has a good stiffness and ductility to withstand earthquake load. In EBF itself there are 3 types of links, namely: Long Link, Intermediate Link, and Short Link. Meanwhile, MRF of Moment resisting Frame is a structural system where the beams and columns are connected rigidly. MRF has a good ductility in accepting load even it has no lateral braces installed. In this research the Dafam Lotus Jember hotel consisting of 10 floors with total height of 33,6 m is modeled as a MRF system structure and steel structure equipped with EBF short link. The objective of this research is to compare the effectiveness of EBF and MRF in terms of displacement, axial force, shear force, and moment occurring in buildings. The modeling results show that EBF with short link has smaller displacement value compared to MRF. The difference between the two is 86,99%. In terms of axial force, shear force, and moment, EBF has smaller values than MRF. The differences are 79,76%, 53,91%, and 10,48% respectively. These results indicate that EBF has better capacity compared to MRF. Indonesia merupakan negara yang memiliki tingkat intensitas kegempaan yang tinggi. Ini menjadikan Indonesia tidak terhindarkan dari dampak negatif yang akan ditimbulkan oleh gempa bumi, yaitu menyebabkan kerusakan insfrastruktur fisik. Peraturan gempa SNI 03-1726-2012 membahas mengenai bresing sebagai salah satu alternatif yang dapat digunakan untuk menangani masalah gempa. Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF) adalah salah satu jenis bresing yang memiliki kekakuan dan daktilitas yang baik jika dibandingkan dengan Concentrically Braced Frame (CBF) yang hanya memiliki kekakuan yang baik. Selain itu terdapat pula Moment Resisting Frame (MRF) yaitu salah satu sistem struktur yang memiliki sifat daktail. Melihat permasalahan yang ada, maka pembahasan ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan efektivitas dari EBF menggunakan short link dengan MRF apabila diaplikasikan pada bangunan Hotel Dafam Lotus Jember 10 lantai yang memiliki tinggi 33,6 m. Adapun efektivitas yang dibadingkan disini adalah nilai story displacement dan gaya dalam (momen, gaya geser, dan gaya aksial) yang terjadi. Hasil analisa dengan bantuan program analisa struktur menunjukkan bahwa EBF menggunakan short link memiliki nilai yang lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan MRF dalam menerima beban yang bekerja. Dari segi story displacement, selisih prosentasenya adalah 86,99% sedangkan untuk gaya dalam yang meliputi momen, gaya geser, dan gaya aksial, selisihnya secara berturut-urut adalah 79,76%, 53,91% dan 10,48%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa EBF menggunakan short link lebih efektif jika dibandingkan dengan MRF.

The fiber beam-column post-buckling element has been formulated and implemented in the non-linear program DRAIN-3DX to predict Buckling, Post-buckling and hysteresis behaviour of tubular Struts and Portals. In this element both material and geometric non-linearities are considered. The element is applied to simulate post buckling and hysteric response of tubular members subjected to cyclic loading. Also Psuedo-Static analysis of X-braced frame subjected to cyclic load has been perfomed. The predicted overall response matched well with the available experimental and other analytical results.

In the current design of steel eccentrically braced frames (EBFs), the yielding link is coupled with the floor beam. This causes the design of cross-sectional dimensions of links to be enlarged, resulting in over-designed structures and foundations, and increasing the cost of the overall structure. In addition, the beams are forecast to sustain severe damage through repeated inelastic deformations under design-level earthquakes, and thus the structure may require extensive repair or need to be replaced. To improve upon these drawbacks, a shear device with replaceable links based on EBFs was designed. The hysteresis curve, the stress distribution, and the deformation of the specimen were obtained by cyclic loading tests of the eight replaceable links. The energy dissipation behavior, the bearing capacity, the failure modes, and the plastic rotation angle of those specimens were analyzed. The results indicated clearly that the links in this shear device had inelastic deformation concentrated in the link showing very stable hysteresis behavior, and damaged links were replaced easily as end-plate connections were adopted. The energy dissipation capacity and the plastic rotation angle of the specimens were mainly dependent on the arrangement of stiffener, length ratio, and welding access holes. Experimental studies performed in this research and the related damage analyses reveal that cracks are the major causes of damage to the EBF and there is a lack of research on real-time monitoring of the onset and development of these cracks in EBF structures. As a future work, this paper proposes a piezoceramic patch transducer-based active sensing approach to monitor the crack onset and development of the EBF when subjected to dynamic loadings.

Effectiveness of steel bracing system installed with fully mechanical interfaces is experimentally demonstrated through a series of monotonic and cyclic loading tests. Also, substructuring pseudo-dynamic earthquake response tests are performed on a possible situation of a two-story braced frame upgraded by the proposed bracing system. An earthquake record and theoretical impulses are adopted as input excitations. The results show that an impulsive excitation acts more stringently on the occurrence of brace breaking.

Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF) is a better option for the earthquake-prone country due to it having a better strength, stiffness, energy dissipation and ductility than Moment Resisting Frame (MRF) structure and more so than structures made of concrete. The structure’s ductility was influenced by the cross-sectional dimension and link element of the frame. This study aims to determine the relation behavior of EBF with the varied link element and cross-sectional of bracing with the ultimate load and ductility of the structure. The analysis was done using MSC. PATRAN/NASTRAN student edition software. A total of three-link model variations, each one represents the three-link variations of EBF; short link, intermediate link, and long link. As for the cross-sectional, variation was made on the flange and web thickness of the IWF profile and web thickness of the HSS profile. The most optimum performance of the structure was determined by displacement control and static monotonic loading. The result indicates that variations in the crosssectional of bracing effects the short link EBF the most, while the intermediate and long link EBF doesn’t show a significant change in terms of ultimate load. Meanwhile, ductility is not bound by the increase of bracing thickness.

The prediction of residual stress relaxation is essential to assess the safety of welded components. This paper aims to study the influence of various effective parameters on residual stress relaxation under cyclic loading. In this regard, a 3D finite element modeling is performed to determine the residual stress in welded aluminum plates. The accuracy of this analysis is verified through experiment. To study the plasticity effect on stress relaxation, two plasticity models are implemented: perfect plasticity and combined isotropic-kinematic hardening. Hence, cyclic plasticity characterization of the material is specified by low cycle fatigue tests. It is found that the perfect plasticity leads to greater stress relaxation. In order to propose an accurate model to compute the residual stress relaxation, the Taguchi L18 array with four 3-level factors and one 6-level is employed. Using statistical analysis, the order of factors based on their effect on stress relaxation is determined as mean stress, stress amplitude, initial residual stress, and number of cycles. In addition, the stress relaxation increases with an increase in mean stress and stress amplitude.

The paper gives the analysis of the problem of the primary current frequency regulation in the power system, as well as the basic requirements for NPP power units under the conditions of involvement in the primary regulation. According to these requirements, the operation of NPPs is associated with unloading and a corresponding decrease in efficiency. In this regard, the combination of nuclear power plants with a hydrogen complex is shown to eliminate the inefficient discharge mode which allows the steam turbine equipment and equipment of the reactor facility to operate in the basic mode at the nominal power level. In addition, conditions are created for the generation and accumulation of hydrogen and oxygen during the day, as well as additionally during the nighttime failure of the electrical load which allows them to be used to generate peak power.  The purpose of the article is to assess the systemic economic effect as a result of the participation of nuclear power plants in combination with the hydrogen complex in the primary control of the current frequency in the power sys-tem, taking into account the resource costs of the main equipment. In this regard, the paper gives the justification of cyclic loading of the main equipment of the hydrogen complex: metal storage tanks of hydrogen and oxygen, compressor units, hydrogen-oxygen combustion chamber of vapor-hydrogen overheating of the working fluid in the steam turbine cycle of a nuclear power plant. The methodological foundations for evaluating the working life of equipment under cyclic loading with the participation in the primary frequency control by the criterion of the growth rate of a fatigue crack are described. For the equipment of the hydrogen complex, the highest intensity of loading is shown to occur in the hydrogen-oxygen combustion chamber due to high thermal stresses.  The system economic effect is estimated and the effect of wear of the main equipment under cyclic loading is shown. Under the conditions of combining NPP power units with a hydrogen complex, the efficiency of primary reg-ulation is shown to depend significantly on: the cost of equipment subjected to cyclic loading; frequency and intensity of cyclic loading; the ratio of the tariff for peak electricity, and the cost of electricity of nuclear power plants.  Based on the developed methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the participation of nuclear power plants with a hydrogen complex in the primary frequency control, taking into account the damage to the equipment, the use of the hydrogen complex is shown to provide a tangible economic effect compared with the option of unloading nuclear power plants with direct participation in frequency control.
