چکیده

Dynamic three-point bend tests are performed on small beams specimen made of a quasi-brittle material. The most classical hypotheses needed to analyse the tests with SHPB, which are based on a state of quasi-static balance of the body, cannot be used. In order to get the behaviour it is necessary to perform a transient analysis of the specimen response. In most cases, the useful duration of the test the elapsed time between the beginning of the load and the total failure is lower than the time needed by the waves to reach the supports. The test is thus called a “one point bending test". In the case of bending failure, an analysis of the tests is possible by using only the measures given by the input bar. The technique is based on the knowledge of the analytical solution of the transient elastic response of the specimen. The failure mechanisms involved are specific features of the dynamic response. Different failure modes can be observed according to the loading rate: bending or shear fracture, single or multiple fractures. The determination of the bending moments and the rotations of the beam section, where the failure occurs, lead to an estimation of the strength and the failure energy.

Seismic Response of Building Structures with Sliding Non-structural Elements

Interaction between a structure under base excitation and heavy non-structural elements that it supports is significant in the seismic analysis and design of the structure. Heavy non-structural elements may slide/rock under base excitation, and this dynamic action affects the seismic behavior of the supporting structure. Hence, in this study, a numerical model was presented to describe the seis...

Parametric Study of Qutrigger Braced and Belt System in Tall Building Structures

Current innovative lateral load carrying systems for tall buildings are those in which the lateral drift is limited to an allowable value without considerable influence on economy. This aim is achieved by using special systems capable of using maximum stiffness and strength capacity of individual structural elements. An effective structural solution in this respect is the use of outrigger brace...

Study and Comparison of Seismic Behaviour of Isolator-Damper Hybrid Control System with Conventional Structural Systems

In this paper, in addition to introduce a hybrid structural system contained local isolators and dampers, its behavior and functional capabilities were studied on a conventional structure. For this purpose, an RC frame building with six-story was designed based on valid codes and then, in four cases based on the number of spans, it was split into two separate adjacent frames. Base isolation was...
