Seismic Response of Container Crane under Near-Field and Far-Field Ground Motions

In this study, the seismic response of a container crane under near-field and far-field ground motions was investigated using shaking table test on 1/20 scale crane. The designed fabricated based similitude laws, in which three independent quantities: geometric length, acceleration, elastic modulus, were used to design A series tests conducted at Seismic Research Test Center, Pusan National University, Yangsan Campus evaluate motions. results show that can cause larger internal forces (that is, axial force two bending moments) landside seaside legs portal drift than subjected 43% higher Furthermore, when motion, moment crane’s leg 37%
