Optimal placement of post-tensioned self-centering yielding braced systems for braced frame structures
The experience of past prominent earthquakes establishes the fact that the structure’s catastrophes and casualties can be dramatically decreased through the use of self-centering systems. A promising post-tensioned self-centering yielding braced system (PT-SCYBS) has been developed, comprising of two main components, including the post-tensioned wires, exhibiting the desirable self-centering pr...
متن کاملSeismic Response of Steel Framed Hospital Buildings with Self-Centering Systems (2004-2005)
This paper introduces the concepts of Elasto-Plastic Systems (EPS) and Self-Centering Systems (SCS) for the seismic design of steel-framed hospital buildings. Redesign of the MCEER West Coast Demonstration Hospital with SCS is conducted using this approach. An ensemble of 25 simulated MCEER Ground Motions having a probability of exceedence of 5% in 50 years in Northridge, California is used as ...
متن کاملRe-centering variable friction device for seismic control of structures
This paper investigates the seismic response control of a nonlinear benchmark building with a new re-centering variable friction device (RVFD). The RVFD consists of three parts: (i) a friction generation unit, (ii) a piezoelectric actuator, and (iii) shape memory alloy wires. The friction unit and piezoelectric actuator compose the first subcomponent of the hybrid device that is a variable fric...
متن کاملEffect of Fling-Step on Seismic Response of Steel Eccentrically Braced Frame Structures
Fling-step and forward directivity are two important characteristics of near-field earthquakes. Forward directivity occurs when the rupture propagates toward the site and arises in fault‐normal direction for strike‐slip faults. Fling-step is the consequence of permanent ground displacement imposed by near-field earthquakes and arises in strike-slip faults in the strike parallel direction. Fling...
متن کاملThe Effect of Frame Geometry on the Seismic Response of Self-Centering Concentrically- Braced Frames
Conventional concentrically-braced frame (CBF) systems have limited drift capacity before brace buckling and related damage leads to deterioration in strength and stiffness. Self-centering concentrically-braced frame (SC-CBF) systems have been developed to increase drift capacity prior to initiation of damage and minimize residual drift. SC-CBFs differ from conventional CBFs in that the SC-CBF ...
