Abstract
Numerical simulations and physical experiments stand out as the two most effective approaches for scrutinizing the seismic performance of single-layer cylindrical shell structures in large-span spaces. Given the substantial demands on labor and material resources entailed by experiments, numerical simulation has progressively emerged as the predominant method for probing the robust seismic response behavior of structures. In this study, ABAQUS was employed to construct finite element models for both the shaking table tests of shells, one without an infill wall and the other with an infill wall. The analysis encompassed self-oscillation characteristics and dynamic time courses. The findings indicated a commendable alignment between the numerical simulation results and the experimental outcomes. Furthermore, a judicious equivalent modeling method for the infill wall was introduced. The dynamic response analysis revealed that the seismic-induced damage to the infill wall significantly impacts the dynamic characteristics of the single-layer cylindrical shell, resulting in diminished structural ductility and ultimate bearing capacity.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering presents original, peer-reviewed papers on research related to the broad spectrum of earthquake engineering. The journal offers a forum for presentation and discussion of such matters as European damaging earthquakes, new developments in earthquake regulations, and national policies applied after major seismic events, including strengthening of existing buildings.
Coverage includes seismic hazard studies and methods for mitigation of risk; earthquake source mechanism and strong motion characterization and their use for engineering applications; geological and geotechnical site conditions under earthquake excitations; cyclic behavior of soils; analysis and design of earth structures and foundations under seismic conditions; zonation and microzonation methodologies; earthquake scenarios and vulnerability assessments; earthquake codes and improvements, and much more.
This is the Official Publication of the European Association for Earthquake Engineering.
