Large databases of cyclic tests on flexure- or shear-critical concrete members and shear-critical connections of columns to beams or slabs are used to estimate the uncertainty inherent in experimental data in literature—as read by users. To this end, the predictions of two different, presumably independent, design-oriented models for the properties of interest are used to establish the “central tendency” of data, against which individual tests or small groups thereof are assessed. Properties considered are: (a) the cyclic ultimate chord-rotation of flexure-controlled members with continuous or lap-spliced deformed bars, (b) the cyclic shear strength of shear-critical members, (c) the chord-rotation at yielding of rectangular columns with plain bars, and (d) the cyclic shear strength of shear-controlled beam-column and slab-column joints. Results suggest that the data from each test campaign have a certain degree of bias, specific to it. Test campaigns with ratio of estimated average deviation from the “central tendency” to the standard deviation of campaign deviations (called “data uncertainty”) which is far into the tail of the Normal distribution may be excluded as questionable. This systematic bias, along with other types of “data uncertainty” addressed in this work, seem to contribute to the apparent scatter of model predictions with respect to cyclic test results the equivalent of a coefficient of variation of model-to-test-ratio of at least 10% and possibly as high as 25%–30%. Model uncertainty seems to contribute to this scatter the equivalent of a coefficient of variation of at least 15% in shear-controlled connections, or as much as 25% in the case of flexural deformation capacity of members with deformed bars; the cyclic shear resistance of members and—with the reservation of the small number of tests—the chord-rotation at yielding of members with plain bars, are in-between.

对抗弯或抗剪关键混凝土构件以及柱与梁或板的抗剪关键连接进行循环测试的大型数据库,用于估算用户阅读的文献中实验数据的内在不确定性。为此,使用两个不同的、假定独立的、以设计为导向的模型对相关特性进行预测,以确定数据的 "中心倾向",并据此对单个试验或其中的小组进行评估。考虑的特性包括(a) 带有连续或搭接变形钢筋的受弯构件的周期极限弦转,(b) 受剪构件的周期剪切强度,(c) 带有普通钢筋的矩形柱屈服时的弦转,以及 (d) 受剪梁-柱和板-柱连接的周期剪切强度。结果表明,每个试验项目的数据都有一定程度的偏差。如果估计的 "中心倾向 "平均偏差与试验偏差标准偏差的比率(称为 "数据不确定性")远高于正态分布的尾部,则可以排除这些试验活动。这种系统性偏差,加上本研究中涉及的其他类型的 "数据不确定性",似乎造成了模型预测与循环测试结果之间的明显差异,相当于模型与测试比率的变异系数至少为 10%,可能高达 25%-30%。在剪力控制连接中,模型的不确定性似乎造成了这种差异,其变异系数至少为 15%,而在带有变形杆件的构件的弯曲变形能力方面,其变异系数则高达 25%;构件的循环抗剪能力以及带有普通杆件的构件在屈服时的弦旋转能力--由于测试数量较少,其变异系数介于两者之间。

In Japan, spherical sliding bearings with low friction coefficients are gaining popularity for base-isolating low-rise frames that are relatively lightweight. However, the complete dataset of isolators and a base-isolated frame for evaluating the model sensitivity and response uncertainty are limited. This study first presents the design process, isolation unit- and frame-level testing, and a blind prediction contest conducted on the occasion of full-scale shaking table testing of a three-story base-isolated hospital specimen. The design process utilizes a numerical model that accounts for the velocity and contact pressure dependencies and requires soft- and hard-case simulations with nominal friction coefficients plus and minus standard deviation to consider the uncertainties associated with the bearing behavior. The pre-shipment isolation unit and frame shake table testing yielded an invaluable dataset for bearings under normal and low contact pressures, low and high velocities, and constant and varying axial loads. The accompanying blind prediction contest provided a valuable dataset for rethinking the impact of modeling uncertainty. In-depth data analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted. The sliding coefficient increased under low-contact pressure and low-velocity conditions. The static friction coefficient was 1.9 to 4.5 times higher than the dynamic coefficient, but this had little impact on the residual displacement, cumulative travel, and maximum story shear force. The axial force fluctuation, vertical motion, and two-directional input did not significantly affect the bearing behavior in the test. The test and the following simulations confirmed that the low friction coefficient helped the building contents, that is, medical equipment in this study, remain in order under near-fault and long-period ground motions.

在日本,具有低摩擦系数的球面滑动轴承越来越多地用于重量相对较轻的低层框架的底座隔离。然而,用于评估模型灵敏度和响应不确定性的隔离装置和底座隔离框架的完整数据集非常有限。本研究首先介绍了设计过程、隔离单元和框架级测试,以及在对三层楼基座隔离医院试样进行全尺寸振动台测试时进行的盲预测竞赛。设计过程采用了一个数值模型,该模型考虑了速度和接触压力的相关性,并要求使用名义摩擦系数加减标准偏差进行软、硬情况模拟,以考虑与支座行为相关的不确定性。装运前隔离装置和框架振动台测试为轴承在正常和低接触压力、低速和高速、恒定和变化轴向载荷下的运行提供了宝贵的数据集。同时进行的盲预测竞赛为重新思考建模不确定性的影响提供了宝贵的数据集。我们进行了深入的数据分析和敏感性分析。在低接触压力和低速度条件下,滑动系数增大。静摩擦系数是动摩擦系数的 1.9 至 4.5 倍,但这对残余位移、累计行程和最大楼层剪力影响不大。轴向力波动、垂直运动和双向输入对试验中的支座行为没有明显影响。试验和随后的模拟证实,低摩擦系数有助于建筑物内容物(即本研究中的医疗设备)在近断层和长周期地面运动下保持正常。

Integral abutment bridges (IABs) generate strong soil–structure interaction (SSI) effects due to their high structural stiffness and transmission of inertial and thermal loads generated at the deck directly to the abutments. Despite an increasing number of experimental and numerical studies available in the literature, there is a lack of consolidated methodologies to model dynamic SSI phenomena for IABs, particularly in seismic regions where uncertainties associated with the induced ground motions render the problem harder to tackle. This study proposes an advanced strategy to model the seismic response of IABs, accounting for dynamic interaction between the structure, the abutment and the foundation, including piles and earth retaining walls. To this end, detailed finite-element studies were carried out employing OpenSees to simulate a recent experimental campaign on a scaled IAB model in a soil container (SERENA) carried out at EQUALS Lab, University of Bristol, in the framework of SERA/H2020 project. An extensive dataset in terms of recorded accelerations, displacements, strains and settlements are available from these tests, including earth pressures which are back-calculated from bending strain measurements. The objectives of this paper are threefold: firstly, the model parameters are explored and assessed critically by comparing the results from the numerical simulations against the experimental data; secondly, once the model is deemed sufficiently representative of the experiments, earth pressures are obtained numerically, as these are not directly measured in the tests; thirdly, the estimated static and dynamic earth pressures on the abutment wall are compared with the predictions of two simplified analytical procedures currently under consideration for inclusion in the new Eurocode 8. The results indicate that records and predictions match well for frequencies of up to 40 Hz at model scale (about 8 Hz in prototype scale) and confirm that the proposed modelling strategy can be used in practical applications. The quasi-elastic model proposed in this study is shown to provide dependable predictions for cases involving moderate strains in real-life applications.

整体式桥墩(IAB)由于结构刚度高,桥面产生的惯性荷载和热荷载直接传递到桥墩,因此会产生强烈的土-结构相互作用(SSI)效应。尽管文献中的实验和数值研究越来越多,但仍缺乏综合的方法来模拟 IAB 的动态 SSI 现象,尤其是在地震地区,与诱导地面运动相关的不确定性使问题更加难以解决。本研究提出了一种先进的工字钢建筑地震响应建模策略,考虑了结构、基台和地基(包括桩基和挡土墙)之间的动态相互作用。为此,在 SERA/H2020 项目框架内,布里斯托尔大学 EQUALS 实验室采用 OpenSees 对土壤容器(SERENA)中的按比例工字钢模型进行了详细的有限元研究。从这些试验中可获得大量数据集,包括记录的加速度、位移、应变和沉降,以及根据弯曲应力测量反向计算的土压力。本文的目的有三:首先,通过将数值模拟结果与试验数据进行比较,对模型参数进行探讨和严格评估;其次,一旦认为模型足以代表试验结果,则通过数值方法获得土压力,因为试验中无法直接测量土压力;第三,将估算的基台上静态和动态土压力与目前正在考虑纳入新版欧洲规范 8 的两种简化分析程序的预测结果进行比较。结果表明,在模型规模下,记录和预测的频率最高可达 40 Hz(原型规模下约为 8 Hz),两者吻合度很高,证实了所提出的建模策略可用于实际应用中。本研究提出的准弹性模型可为实际应用中涉及中等应变的情况提供可靠的预测。

Experimentally-based in-plane drift limits for the upper threshold of masonry light damage 基于实验的砌体光损伤上阈值面内漂移限值

Drift limits are useful thresholds; during design or retrofitting analyses, engineers can compare the expected behaviour of a structure to drift limits that predict when the structure will reach a certain condition. This helps ensure that structures satisfy specified performance goals when exposed to certain hazards. Masonry walls are susceptible to damage from lateral in-plane actions such as wind or earthquake loading; ensuring that in-plane drift remains sufficiently small will help limit this damage. Drift limits based on crack-based damage are scarce, however, with DS1 limits being extrapolated from higher damage grades based on structural strength capacity or ductility. In this work, crack-based damage is evaluated on a multitude of full-scale experimental walls surveyed with digital image correlation. This method observes the initiation and propagation of cracking. Cyclically incremental in-plane tests provide a range of drift-damage relationships. These are explored with machine learning to determine influential predictors and ultimately establish drift limits for light damage. Two types of brick masonry are explored: fired-clay and calcium-silicate. For the latter, light damage begins at an in-plane drift of 0.5 mm/m and can extend to 4.8 mm/m (or 0.48%) for the former before the masonry surpasses light damage and reaches structural damage grades. In comparison to drift limits set by other authors and (international) guidelines to characterise light damage, significant damage, or the ultimate capacity of masonry walls, the resulting drift limits for light damage from this work are set directly on the basis of experiments and are in good agreement with other authors. Most importantly, all the consulted values for ultimate capacity are much larger than the upper threshold for light damage determined herein, with limits for significant damage in the same order of magnitude. This result verifies the accuracy of the experimental crack-based characterisation used to establish the drift thresholds.

漂移限值是有用的阈值;在设计或改造分析过程中,工程师可以将结构的预期行为与漂移限值进行比较,从而预测结构何时会达到某种状态。这有助于确保结构在暴露于特定危险时满足指定的性能目标。砌体墙容易受到横向平面作用(如风荷载或地震荷载)的破坏;确保平面内漂移足够小将有助于限制这种破坏。然而,基于裂缝破坏的漂移限值并不多见,DS1 限值是根据结构强度能力或延展性从更高的破坏等级中推断出来的。在这项工作中,利用数字图像相关技术对大量全尺寸实验墙进行了基于裂缝的损伤评估。这种方法可以观察到裂缝的产生和扩展。循环增量面内测试提供了一系列漂移-损坏关系。通过机器学习对这些关系进行探索,以确定有影响力的预测因素,并最终确定轻度损坏的漂移限制。研究了两种砖砌体:烧结粘土砖和硅酸钙砖。对于后者,轻度破坏始于 0.5 mm/m 的平面内漂移,而对于前者,在砌体超过轻度破坏并达到结构破坏等级之前,轻度破坏可扩展至 4.8 mm/m(或 0.48%)。与其他作者和(国际)指南为描述砌体墙体的轻度破坏、严重破坏或极限承载力而设定的漂移限值相比,本研究得出的轻度破坏漂移限值是直接根据实验设定的,与其他作者的结果非常一致。最重要的是,所有参考的极限承载力值都远大于本文确定的轻度破坏上限值,重度破坏的限值也在同一数量级。这一结果验证了用于确定漂移阈值的基于裂纹的实验表征的准确性。

Two large-scale, single-storey, single-bay reinforced concrete (RC) moment frames, designed as per an outdated seismic code to represent a typical framing detail of a four-storey building, have been tested under displacement-controlled quasi-static loading protocol as per ACI 374.1-05. The RC frames include a plinth beam with brick infill underneath, a slab monolithically cast with the top beam and provision for applying axial load to the column to simulate real construction scenario. One of the frames has been tested as a bare frame, and the second one has been retrofitted with conventional steel braces designed to undergo in-plane buckling. The size of the brace has been selected based on the result of a nonlinear time history analysis of representative low- to mid-rise open-ground storey RC buildings. Post-installed chemical anchors have been utilized to connect the steel braces to the narrow RC frame members following the outcomes of an experimental investigation by the same authors. Local-level retrofitting by steel jacketing using adhesives has been designed and utilized on columns and beams to achieve the desired seismic response. The seismic performance of the retrofitted frame has been compared with the bare frame in terms of strength, stiffness, ductility, energy dissipation and hysteretic damping. The tests provide insight into the role of the plinth beam, effect of RC slab on the strong-column weak-beam aspect and the achievement of the desirable hinge mechanism through a precise design and detailing of global and local level retrofitting technique.

Random-positioned-sampling effect on probabilistic seismic demand modeling of modularized suspended buildings with free-standing objects and architectural function regioning 随机定位抽样对独立构件模块化悬架建筑概率地震需求建模及建筑功能区划的影响

The definition of the targeted engineering demand parameters (EDPs) is important to probabilistic seismic demand modeling (PSDM), which produces probability density functions of EDPs conditioned on seismic intensity measure (IM). The targeted EDPs are usually defined at the group level to account for multiple components/units. Thus, they are affected by the considered range of units, i.e., the sample positions. For instance, the maximum peak floor acceleration (PFA) within the whole building differs from the maximum among only the important positions related to seismic loss. Additional uncertainties are induced in the PSDM of PFA if the sample positions vary when architectural function and non-structural elements change. In this study, the aforementioned influence is termed random-positioned-sampling (RPS) effect, and it is investigated by targeting a modularized suspended building, which features the tuning mechanism, multiple major modes, uneven response envelopes, and notable non-structural-object-structure interactions (NSOSI). Results show that the RPS effect lowers the maximum-based group-level EDP and increases the dispersion within the EDP sample sets, indicating that conventional PSDMs without considering the RPS effect are biased. The significance of the influence is positively correlated to the position-wise coefficient of variation of EDP but negatively correlated to the density of sample positions. The combined influence of the NSOSI and the RPS effect is two-sided for PSDM.

目标工程需求参数的定义对概率地震需求建模(PSDM)具有重要意义,该模型以地震烈度测度(IM)为条件,生成目标工程需求参数的概率密度函数。目标edp通常在组级定义,以考虑多个组件/单元。因此,它们受到所考虑的单位范围,即样本位置的影响。例如,整个建筑物内的最大峰值楼层加速度(PFA)仅在与地震损失有关的重要位置上与最大值不同。当建筑功能和非结构元素发生变化时,样品位置的变化会导致PFA的PSDM产生额外的不确定性。在本研究中,上述影响被称为随机定位抽样(RPS)效应,并以具有调谐机制、多主模态、不均匀响应包络和显著的非结构-物体-结构相互作用(NSOSI)的模块化悬架建筑为研究对象。结果表明,RPS效应降低了基于最大群体水平的EDP,增加了EDP样本集内的离散度,表明不考虑RPS效应的传统psdm是有偏差的。影响的显著性与EDP的位置变异系数正相关,而与样本位置密度负相关。NSOSI和RPS效应对PSDM的综合影响是双向的。NSOSI通过扩大EDP的位置分散而放大了RPS效应,而RPS效应则放弃了NSOSI的部分有害分散贡献。总的来说,即使对IM进行了优化,IM的性能也会受到限制。但是,由于样本位置的限制,如果事先获得了结构功能区域信息,则可以对其进行补偿。

Mitigating fracture in welded column splices is an important challenge for the safety of existing steel moment-resisting frames. While models to predict splice fracture have recently been developed, suitable approaches are not available to simulate the response of frames after splice fracture. Motivated by this, a two-dimensional displacement-based fiber element construct, termed the Splice Fracture Element (SFE), is presented. The SFE includes numerous features: (1) representation of the loss of strength in any fiber at a critical stress determined from fracture mechanics, (2) the ability to simulate the loss of shear strength of the cross-section when the entire section is severed – a phenomenon not readily simulated in conventional fiber elements, and (3) the ability to track the kinematics of the severed parts of the column to represent transfer of compressive stresses on contact. This formulation is implemented into an open-source software (OpenSees) and applied to conduct Nonlinear Response History Analysis (NLRHA) of two demonstration problems, including a 1-story frame and a 20-story frame. Benchmark simulations that do not simulate splice fracture or represent it without the loss of shear strength are also conducted. The results indicate that the SFE element can successfully simulate the key phenomena associated with splice fracture and post-fracture response.

减轻焊接柱接头的断裂是现有钢结构抗弯矩框架安全性面临的重要挑战。虽然最近已经建立了预测拼接断裂的模型,但目前还没有合适的方法来模拟拼接断裂后框架的响应。基于此,提出了一种基于位移的二维纤维单元结构,称为拼接断裂单元(SFE)。SFE包括许多特征:(1)表示任何纤维在断裂力学确定的临界应力下的强度损失,(2)模拟整个截面被切断时横截面抗剪强度损失的能力——这是传统纤维元件难以模拟的现象,以及(3)跟踪柱被切断部分的运动学以表示接触时压应力传递的能力。该公式被实现到一个开源软件(OpenSees)中,并应用于两个演示问题的非线性响应历史分析(NLRHA),包括一个1层框架和一个20层框架。还进行了不模拟剪接断裂或不损失剪切强度的剪接断裂的基准模拟。结果表明,该有限元单元能够较好地模拟与剪接断裂和断裂后响应相关的关键现象。

<p>In the present seismic design philosophy, the structures are designed to remain within the specified displacement limits for multiple earthquake hazard levels expected during their design life. Accordingly, the estimation of maximum inelastic displacement demand in a structure consistent with a given hazard level is of primary importance.

在目前的抗震设计理念中,结构设计的目的是在其设计寿命期间,在预计的多种地震灾害等级下,保持在规定的位移限制范围内。因此,估算结构在特定危险等级下的最大非弹性位移需求至关重要。考虑到针对一系列与灾害等级一致的地面运动进行非线性响应历史分析的复杂性和不便性,我们倾向于使用单自由度(SDOF)结构中的非弹性位移比 C $C$ 的缩放模型来估算最大非弹性位移需求。在本研究中,针对初始阻尼为 5%、具有刚度和强度衰减及捏合的布克-温-巴伯-诺里(BWBN)振荡器,为给定响应降低系数 R 的非弹性位移比 C R ( T ) ${C}_R(T)$ 谱建立了一个新的缩放模型。该模型基于在大多数情况下观察到的 C R ( T ) ${C}_R(T)$ 谱与给定位移响应 SD( T $T$ ) 谱的倒数之间的相似性,因此间接考虑了地震学和场地参数的影响。此外,还提出了一个新的强震持续时间定义,以确定具有可比相关性的较短强震段,使用该定义表明,平均 C R ( T ) ${C}_R(T)$ 谱对强震持续时间的依赖可以忽略不计。因此,所提出的 C R ( T ) ${C}_R(T)$ 谱比例模型的回归参数,只估算为五个支配 BWBN 参数的指数函数。此外,还建立了残余误差谱模型,以估计给定置信度下的 C R ( T ) ${C}_R(T)$ 谱。通过输入设计位移谱和 BWBN 参数,所提出的缩放模型可广泛应用于初始阻尼为 5% 的现有钢筋混凝土 (RC) 结构。

Motion amplification devices utilized to amplify the motion of dampers can effectively improve the energy dissipation performance of dampers to reduce seismic responses of engineering structures. This study systematically develops a linear equivalence theory for motion amplification devices based on the proposed equivalent Maxwell model. This equivalent model accurately predicts the supplemental damping effect provided by motion amplification devices without approximation. Also, the equivalent model is capable of quantifying the amplification effect of motion amplification devices by means of deriving the analytical expressions of the equivalent damping and stiffness coefficients, which reveal that motion amplification devices simultaneously enhance the original damping and stiffness coefficients by α¯2${{bar{alpha }}^2}$, where α¯$bar{alpha }$ is the proposed rigidity motion amplification factor. The representative value of member stiffness kp${{k}_{mathrm{p}}}$ is developed to comprehensively evaluate the supporting stiffness of motion amplification devices. All the achieved results strongly support that the proposed linear equivalence theory provides a generic paradigm to explain, measure and compare different types of motion amplification devices in terms of their supplemental damping effects, and hence helps researchers and engineers gain valuable insight into the dynamic properties of motion amplification devices.

利用运动放大装置放大阻尼器的运动可有效提高阻尼器的消能性能,从而降低工程结构的地震响应。本研究以提出的等效麦克斯韦模型为基础,系统地发展了运动放大装置的线性等效理论。该等效模型无需近似值即可准确预测运动放大装置提供的补充阻尼效应。同时,该等效模型还能通过推导等效阻尼系数和刚度系数的解析表达式来量化运动放大装置的放大效应,从而揭示出运动放大装置可同时通过 α ¯ 2 ${{bar{alpha }}^2}$ 增强原始阻尼系数和刚度系数,其中 α ¯ $bar{alpha }$ 是所提出的刚度运动放大系数。为全面评估运动放大装置的支撑刚度,我们提出了构件刚度的代表值 k p ${{k}_{mathrm{p}}}$ 。所有结果都有力地证明了所提出的线性等效理论为解释、测量和比较不同类型运动放大装置的补充阻尼效应提供了通用范例,从而帮助研究人员和工程师深入了解运动放大装置的动态特性。

The growing concern over environmental impact and the significant improvement in the quality of engineered wood products have led to the rapid growth of the timber building industry in the last decades. Although traditional, yet recent, mass timber structural systems, such as cross-laminated timber walls, can provide satisfactory seismic performance during earthquakes in terms of life-safety, the crucial need for more resilient timber buildings has prompted the development of low-damage high-performance self-centring and dissipative solutions based on unbonded post-tensioned hybrid connections, referred to as Pres-Lam technology. The flexibility of design and construction speed, combined with the enhanced seismic performance, create a unique potential towards an earthquake-proof sustainable building system. Despite the growing popularity of the technology, a comprehensive framework for the fragility analysis, to be used in risk and loss modelling applications, has not yet been developed for both component and building levels.

This article aims to develop a framework for assessing the fragility curves of moment-resisting Pres-Lam frame systems, at both structural system and connection levels, by using and comparing different approaches that involve nonlinear static (pushover) and time history dynamic analyses. A Python-based parametric workflow was developed to evaluate fragility curves for a wide range of case-study buildings. Particularly, three distinct structures were selected, and their fragility curves were evaluated utilizing alternative methodologies at a building structural-system level. Finally, fragility models were fitted for individual structural connections using the results of time-history analyses. These models are intended for use in a component-based loss assessment.

随着人们对环境影响的日益关注以及工程木制品质量的显著提高,木材建筑行业在过去几十年中得到了快速发展。尽管传统但最新的大规模木结构系统(如交叉层压木墙)在地震中可以提供令人满意的抗震性能,以确保生命安全,但对更具弹性的木结构建筑的迫切需求促使人们开发了基于无粘结后张法混合连接(即 Pres-Lam 技术)的低破坏高性能自聚和耗散解决方案。该技术设计灵活,施工速度快,抗震性能更强,为实现抗震可持续建筑系统创造了独特的潜力。本文旨在开发一个框架,通过使用和比较涉及非线性静力(推移)和时间历程动态分析的不同方法,在结构系统和连接层面评估矩抵抗 Pres-Lam 框架系统的脆性曲线。我们开发了一个基于 Python 的参数化工作流程,用于评估各种案例研究建筑的脆性曲线。特别是,我们选择了三种不同的结构,并利用建筑结构系统层面的替代方法对其脆性曲线进行了评估。最后,利用时间历程分析的结果为单个结构连接拟合了脆性模型。这些模型将用于以构件为基础的损失评估。
