Inner Mongolia is a high‐frequency thunderstorm region in China, and the downburst caused by the thunderstorm weather is a severe threat to buildings. In order to study the influence of downburst on the wind pressure characteristics of the yurt building, the wind field model of the yurt building under downburst is established based on the computational fluid dynamics method, and the effect of the wall treatment method and turbulence model on the numerical simulation of wind pressure of the yurt building under downburst is analyzed. The results demonstrate that the maximum positive pressure at the windward side of the yurt building occurs at 3/4 of the yurt building height under downburst, and the maximum negative pressure at the roof of the yurt building appears at the center of the roof. Compared with the experimental results, the Shear Stress Transport (SST) k‐ω model is suitable for simulating both sides of the yurt building, while the Reynolds Stress equation Model (RSM) is suitable for simulating the windward side, roof, and leeward of the yurt building. The enhanced wall treatment is appropriate for simulating the remaining sides of the yurt building while the standard wall function is appropriate for simulating both sides of the building.

In this paper, we studied the responses of high‐rise structures under the multiple‐component ground motions, such as horizontal; coupled horizontal and rocking; and coupled horizontal, vertical, and rocking ground motion. First, the principle and process of obtaining the rotation component by using wavelet analysis are explained, and the rocking ground motion was obtained by wavelet analysis from translational ground motions. The correctness of this method was verified by shaking table tests. Next, the shaking table tests were performed on the scale model of a high‐rise TV tower under the horizontal, multiple ground motions. Under multiple ground motions, the amplitudes of the displacement and the acceleration increased to a certain extent, and the increased range of the acceleration was relatively larger. In addition, the displacement time‐history curve with the rocking ground motion showed an asymmetric offset. Subsequently, the dynamic equation of a high‐rise structure under the multiple ground motions was established, and the additional second‐order effect of the rocking ground motion was also considered. The results of the dynamic equation were well consistent with the shaking table test results, which verified the rationality and the accuracy of the dynamic equation. Besides, the result from the theoretical calculation and test indicated that the additional second‐order effect with the rocking ground motion that led to the ground tilting should not be ignored. In the last part, the elastic–plastic properties of the structure under the horizontal and rocking ground motion in the rare earthquake were analyzed. The displacement of the structure with the rocking ground motion increased significantly at the elastic–plastic stage, and the asymmetry deviation degree of the displacement and restoring force–displacement trend of the structure were more significant, which would impact the dynamic stability of the structure and even increase the possibility of structural collapse.

Due to the real‐time loading property and the limitation of available loading facilities, both of the refined numerical substructure simulations and multiple experimental substructure tests are impossible for traditional real‐time hybrid simulation method (RHSM). For improving the experimental accuracy under limited loading facilities, a RHSM based on multitasking loading (RHSM‐ML) is proposed in this paper. In the proposed method, an inner‐loop multitasking loading strategy is adopted for accurately reproducing the performance of multiple experimental substructures with limited available loading facilities, and an outer‐loop force correction‐based iteration strategy is adopted for further improving the experimental accuracy by allowing refined simulation of the numerical substructures while remaining real‐time loading on the experimental substructures. Firstly, the methodology of the proposed RHSM‐ML is presented. Furthermore, the numerical simulations were conducted for validating the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method. Finally, the influence of the structural model on the iterative convergence is analyzed. It is shown that the multitasking loading and the force correction‐based iteration strategy are feasible for RHSM. It is shown from numerical simulations that with the contribution of the multitasking loading strategy, the correlation coefficients under different simulation conditions can up to 0.9999 within five round iterations by the RHSM‐ML and the force correction‐based iteration strategy of the RHSM‐ML can significantly improve the iterative convergence accuracy. It is shown from iterative convergence analysis that under different structural models, the convergence of the RHSM‐ML can be achieved within five round iterations.

In this paper, a decentralized control algorithm is proposed for actively controlling the response of the flexible tall building structures under earthquake excitations. In the proposed approach, tall building structure was divided into some substructures in the form of state equation. The interaction of the subsystems and external excitations is conducted as bounded generalized force acting on the subsystems. A decentralized control algorithm of tall building structures is established based on the sliding model control theory. The control structure is described based on unit vector control. The control law consists of two parts: a linear control law uL and a nonlinear law uN. The linear control is merely a linear state feedback controller, whereas the nonlinear feedback controller incorporates the discontinuous or continuous nonlinear elements of the control law. Using the advantage of match conditions of sliding mode theory and the bounded feature of generalized force, the overall stability of decentralized control is also investigated. The actuator arrangement and matching conditions are discussed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the numerical simulation of the decentralized control of a 20‐story benchmark structure under seismic excitations.

Staged‐construction analysis (SCA) has recently become a noticeable trend for estimating the design forces and deformations for high‐rise buildings (HRBs). SCA is a nonlinear step‐by‐step analysis that simulates the construction activities and conditions. It is a numerical simulation that considers loading history during construction, time‐dependent material behavior, environmental conditions, and any special measures taken by contractors to limit differential axial shortening during the construction process. However, building codes and guidelines do not provide adequate provisions that clearly identify how to approach this type of analysis. This paper presents a comprehensive state‐of‐the‐art review on how SCA was previously adopted in theoretical research and how it was applied in real buildings. It begins by critically reviewing different research work on SCA. Afterward, the paper puts forward the recent fundamentals of conducting SCA. Then, a series of studies about verifying SCA as practical analysis procedure using field measurements are then presented. In addition, the current paper reviews how SCA can specifically affect post‐tension slabs. Based on this review, several recommendations are provided to help in shaping the future code provisions, add to the development of recent practices, and inspire future research. The conducted review concludes that more investigations should be performed to better understand the effect of considering SCA on the deformations and design forces during HRB analysis.

There are many strengthening methods made with steel cross members for strengthening the structures with inadequate earthquake behavior. This type of strengthening methods is also effective in buckling of the cross members in the behavior of the structural frames. This buckling may cause partial or complete collapse of the structure. Thus, it is quite important to prevent and limit the formation of buckling in steel crosses. At the TEC 2018, the insulation unit is defined as the elements that can exhibit flexible behavior on the horizontal direction and rigid behavior on the vertical direction under the effect of earthquake loads. The basic principle of using insulation units is that these members can dissipate energy in the carrier system. The originality of this study is to experimentally investigate the damper behavior created by using cylindrical rubber wedges, which can be easily found in the automotive industry, in combination with steel plates and bolts. In this experimental study, the contribution of seismic insulators to the structural element to be strengthened was investigated. The insulators used in this study are considered by analogy with lead‐core rubber insulators. As such seismic lead‐core rubber insulators move under the influence of lateral loads, the lead core inside makes plastic deformation, thus increasing the damping rate. In this insulator study, it is aimed to use U plates or bolts instead of lead core. While vertical loads are covered by rubber support, horizontal loads will be damped due to plastic deformation of U plates or bolts. The five types of seismic dampers were used as 10 B‐type rubber wedge mounted damper (SR), 2 U‐type steel plates damper (SP), 10 M6 steel bolted damper (SB), 2 U‐type steel plates and 10 B‐type rubber wedge mounted damper (SPR), 10 M6 steel bolted, and 10 C‐type rubber wedge mounted damper (SBR). These specimens were tested under lateral loading and constant vertical loading. The results obtained at the end of the tests shall be compared considering the strength, stiffness, and dissipated energy capacities of the specimens.

The increasing expectation of structures capable of fulfilling the requirements of minimizing post‐earthquake repair or re‐occupancy has led to the emergence of damage‐control technologies. In recent years, self‐centering precast concrete wall systems that are characterized by low damage as well as full prefabrication have become a popular topic. Previous research has shown that the system is not only capable to reduce the construction time but also has the characteristics of small residual displacement and quick restoration of normal service function after a major earthquake event. Nevertheless, there is still much to be studied for high‐rise buildings and practical engineering applications. This paper introduces the process of self‐centering precast concrete wall systems from conceptual design to detailing and construction aspects of a 10‐story case study building. Specifically, the hybrid type of unbonded post‐tensioned wall is adopted with mild steel functioning as the energy‐dissipating component. The design and construction of mild steel take into account the requirements of both building function and replaceability. In addition, the lateral resisting system is decoupled from the gravity system using isolated joints for wall‐to‐floor connection. Various factors such as higher mode effects, torsional effects, and wind loads are considered in the design process in order to achieve the overall high performance of the structure. Finally, the numerical model of the designed structure is established and analyzed under both static and dynamic loading. Results show that the self‐centering wall structure studied in this paper has satisfactory seismic performance, i.e., each component and joint can work to achieve the function as expected, and has broad engineering application prospects in the future.

Grille‐type steel plate composite (GSPC) shear wall is an innovative wall system consisting of concrete cores, steel faceplates, steel tie plates, and steel channels with more advantages than conventional reinforced concrete (RC) walls, including better ductility, higher bearing capacity, and easy‐modular characteristics. This paper mainly discusses the seismic performance and damage resistance of GSPC walls to the entire structure from the aspect of the structural level. Three nonlinear numerical models of high‐rise structures with different structural heights and types were established by PERFORM‐3D software to study the influence of GSPC walls on the change in structural internal forces and deformations compared with RC walls. One of these structures was selected to conduct the seismic fragility analysis based on the incremental dynamic analysis and to assess the structure's seismic performance with GSPC walls. Finally, the seismic damage prediction method was used to evaluate the damage levels of the GSPC wall structure. Results indicate that the structures with GSPC walls suffer more significant seismic forces than those with RC walls, although they experience lesser structural deformations. Moreover, GSPC walls can effectively improve the structure's collapse and seismic damage resistance.

To investigate the effect of soil‐structure interaction (SSI) on the seismic response of frame buildings on collapsible loess, the secondary development of Abaqus was used to realize the embedding of the unified strength theory constitutive model. Meanwhile, a new nonlinear elastic model generated by the unified strength theory (b, the failure criterion parameter in the unified strength theory, equals 0.5) was developed. Seven‐ and nine‐story frame buildings were selected as engineering examples in this study. The outcomes indicate that the nonlinear behavior of the loess–pile has a significant effect on the dynamic interaction of both group pile foundations and the superstructure under strong earthquakes. This results in an amplification of the displacement response and a reduction in inter‐story shear force. As the foundation soil becomes softer, the K‐type distribution of both peak accelerations and inter‐story displacements along height becomes more obvious in general.
