Book Description
Tools to Safeguard New Buildings and Assess Existing OnesNonlinear analysis methods such as static pushover are globally considered a reliable tool for seismic and structural assessment. But the accuracy of seismic capacity estimates-which can prevent catastrophic loss of life and astronomical damage repair costs-depends on the use of the correct b
Modelling and Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures for Dynamic Loading
Author: Christian MeyerPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3709125243
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
A comprehensive review of the material behavior of concrete under dynamic loads, especially impact and impuls, opens the volume. It is followed by a summary of the various analytical tools available to engineers interested in analyzing the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete members for dynamic load. These range from relatively simple and practice-oriented push-over analysis to sophisticated layered finite element models. Important design-related topics are discussed, with special emphasis on performance of concrete frames subjected to seismic loads. The significance of modern software systems is recognized by including extensive examples. For readers not current in dynamic analysis methods, an appendix contains a review of the mathematical methods most commonly used for such analysis.

Book Description
This thesis aims to identify the optimal combination of hysteresis-modeling and damping parameters implemented in nonlinear dynamic analysis to obtain satisfactory correlation between calculated and measured seismic response of reinforced concrete frames. A total of five parameters are included in this investigation: initial stiffness, bond-slip rotations, post-yield stiffness, unloading stiffness, and viscous damping. These parameters directly influence the seismic response of individual frame members. In this study, frame elements are modeled using lumped plasticity by means of an elastic middle portion bounded by nonlinear springs that connect each end of the member to a rigid segment representing the beam-column joints. Three small-scale shake-table multistory test structures and two orthogonal structural systems from an existing seven-story building with recorded seismic responses are used in this study. Each test structure was analyzed using three computer programs for two separate base accelerations and the analytical responses were compared to the measured responses using the Frequency Domain Error (FDE) index. The existing building was analyzed for a single recorded seismic event. After analyzing each structure with all possible combinations of modeling parameters, the optimal combinations of parameters leading to the best correlations between the calculated and measured response were identified. Simplified rules are given to derive the modeling parameters that give consistent low values of FDE for the various structures and structural analysis programs considered.

Book Description
Proceedings of the U.S.?Japan Seminar on Post-Peak Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Seismic Loads: Recent Advances and Challenges on Analysis and Design, held in Tokyo and Lake Yamanaka, Japan, October 25-29, 1999. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation, U.S.A.; Japan Society for the Promotion of Science; Japan Concrete Institute. This collection presents the latest ideas and findings on the inelastic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures from the analysis and design standpoints. These papers discuss state-of-the-art concrete material models and analysis methods that can be used to simulate and understand the inelastic behavior of RC structures, as well as design issues that can improve the seismic performance of these structures. Topics include modeling of concrete behavior; modeling of RC structures (finite element approach and macro-element approach); and experimental studies, analysis, and design issues.
