Abstract

A novel, practical, and computationally efficient probabilistic methodology for the stochastic generation of suites of fully non-stationary artificial accelerograms is presented. The proposed methodology ensures that the produced ground motion suites match a given target spectral mean and target variability for the whole period range of interest. This is achieved by first producing an ensemble of random target spectra with the given mean and variability and then using them to generate artificial, target spectrum-compatible, acceleration time-histories with spectral representation techniques. Spectral correlation can also be assumed for the generated ground motion spectra. Based on the same backbone, two different formulations are proposed for generating spectrum-compatible acceleration time-histories of the non-stationary kind. The distinction between these two variants lies in the techniques employed for modeling the temporal and spectral modulation, focusing on the site-compatibility of the produced records. The first approach uses past-recorded seismic accelerograms as seed records, and the second proposes and uses a new, probabilistic time-frequency modulating function. The outcome of the proposed methodology is suites containing site-compatible ground motion time-histories whose spectral mean and variability match those obtained from any of the usually employed target spectra used in the earthquake engineering practice. An online tool implementing the proposed methodology is also freely provided.

从概率角度生成与灾害相符的完全非稳态地震记录套件
本文提出了一种新颖、实用且计算效率高的概率方法,用于随机生成完全非稳态的人工加速度图组。所提出的方法可确保生成的地面运动套件符合给定的目标频谱平均值和整个相关周期范围内的目标变异性。具体方法是:首先生成具有给定平均值和变异性的随机目标频谱集合,然后利用频谱表示技术生成与目标频谱相匹配的人工加速度时间历史。生成的地面运动频谱也可以假定具有频谱相关性。在同一基础上,提出了两种不同的方法来生成频谱兼容的非稳态加速度时间历史。这两种变体的区别在于所采用的时间和频谱调制建模技术,重点是所生成记录的场地兼容性。第一种方法使用过去记录的地震加速度图作为种子记录,第二种方法则提出并使用一种新的概率时频调制函数。建议方法的结果是包含场地兼容地动时史的套件,其频谱平均值和变异性与地震工程实践中通常使用的目标频谱相匹配。此外,还免费提供了一个实施所提方法的在线工具。

期刊介绍: Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics provides a forum for the publication of papers on several aspects of engineering related to earthquakes. The problems in this field, and their solutions, are international in character and require knowledge of several traditional disciplines; the Journal will reflect this. Papers that may be relevant but do not emphasize earthquake engineering and related structural dynamics are not suitable for the Journal. Relevant topics include the following: ground motions for analysis and design geotechnical earthquake engineering probabilistic and deterministic methods of dynamic analysis experimental behaviour of structures seismic protective systems system identification risk assessment seismic code requirements methods for earthquake-resistant design and retrofit of structures.
