Abstract
Prestressed prefabricated frames have been one of the research hotspots of seismic structures because of their excellent self-centering ability. Prestressed prefabricated Frame with Martensitic SMA Buckling-Restrained Rods (PF-MBRR) and Prestressed prefabricated Frame with Steel Buckling-Restrained Rods (PF-SBRR) had been designed in this paper. The nonlinear dynamic time-history analysis of the two frames were carried out by Opensees software. The results showed that the inter-story drift ratio and residual inter-story drift ratio of PF-MBRR were smaller than those of PF-SBRR under Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE) intensity, indicating that the Martensitic SMA Buckling-Restrained Rod (MBRR) was more advantageous in controlling the seismic response of the frame under rare earthquake. The design method considered the role of MBRR core strengthening stage in PF-MBRR, which made the post-yield stiffness of PF-MBRR was 3.4 times higher than that of PF-SBRR. MBRR had better energy dissipation effect per unit volume compared with SBRR, and MBRR could be made shorter to improve material utilization efficiency.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to encourage and enhance the role of mechanics and other disciplines as they relate to earthquake engineering by providing opportunities for the publication of the work of applied mathematicians, engineers and other applied scientists involved in solving problems closely related to the field of earthquake engineering and geotechnical earthquake engineering.
Emphasis is placed on new concepts and techniques, but case histories will also be published if they enhance the presentation and understanding of new technical concepts.
