In this paper, analytical models for reinforced concrete shear wall systems designed based on Korean Building Code (KBC2009) are proposed, which have special and semi-special seismic details and are compared with experimental results for a verification of analytical models. In addition, semi-special seismic details aimed to improve constructability and enhance economic efficiency were proposed and evaluated. The analytical models were performed based on nonlinear static and dynamic analysis. Through the nonlinear analyses, two seismic details showed the similar seismic behavior from the cyclic test and the analytical models for the two different seismic details represented the behavior in terms of the initial stiffness, maximum strength and strength degradation. And newly proposed seismic details(semi-special) provided with similar hysterestic behavior as well as the maximum drift.

Lateral pressure plays a significant role in the stress-strain relationship of compressed concrete. Concrete's internal cracking resistance, ultimate strain, and axial strength are improved by confinement. This phenomenon influences the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete columns. Utilizing behavior factors to predict the nonlinear seismic responses of structures is prevalent in seismic codes, and this factor plays a vital role in the seismic responses of structures. This study aims to evaluate the confining action on the behavior factor of reinforced concrete moment resisting frames (RCMRFs) with shear walls (SWRCMRFs). To this end, a diverse range of mid-rise SW-RCMRFs was initially designed based on the Iranian national building code criteria. Second, the stress-strain curve of each element was modeled twice, both with and without the confinement phenomenon. Each frame was then subjected to pushover analysis. Finally, the analytical behavior factors of these frames were computed and compared to the Iranian seismic code behavior factor. The results demonstrate that confining action increased the behavior factors of SW-RCMRFs by 7-12%.

The seismic behavior of a framed structure with chevron-type buckling restrained braces was investigated and their behavior factors, such as overstrength, ductility, and response modification factors, were evaluated. Two types of structures, building frame systems and dual systems, with 4, 8, 12, and 16 stories were designed per the IBC 2003, the AISC LRFD and the AISC Seismic Provisions. Nonlinear static pushover analyses using two different loading patterns and incremental dynamic analysis using 20 earthquake records were carried out to compute behavior factors. Time history analyses were also conducted with another 20 earthquakes to obtain dynamic responses. According to the analysis results, the response modification factors turned out to be larger than what is proposed in the provision in low-rise structures, and a little smaller than the code-values in the medium-rise structures. The dual systems, even though designed with smaller seismic load, showed superior static and dynamic performances.

This paper presents an investigation on seismic behavior of out-of-code Q690 circular high-strength concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular (HCFTST) columns made up of high-strength (HS) steel tubes (yield strength $f_y{\geq}690MPa$). Eight Q690 circular HCFTST columns with various diameter-to-thickness (D/t) ratios, concrete cylinder compressive strengths ($f_c$) and axial compression ratios (n) were tested under the constant axial loading and reversed cyclic lateral loading. The obtained lateral load-displacement hysteretic curves, energy dissipation, skeleton curves and ductility, and stiffness degradation were analyzed in detail to reflect the influences of tested parameters. Subsequently, a simplified shear strength model was derived and validated by the test results. Finally, a finite element analysis (FEA) model incorporating a stress triaxiality dependent fracture criterion was established to simulate the seismic behavior. The systematic investigation indicates the following: compared to the D/t ratio and axial compression ratio, improving the concrete compressive strength (e.g., the HS thin-walled steel tube filled with HS concrete) had a slight influence on the ductility but an obvious enhancement of energy dissipation and peak load; the simplified shear strength model based on truss mechanism accurately predicted the shear-resisting capacity; and the established FEA model incorporating steel fracture criterion simulated well the seismic behavior (e.g., hysteretic curve, local buckling and fracture), which can be applied to the seismic analysis and design of Q690 circular HCFTST columns.

본 연구에서는 대공간구조물의 기본적인 동적특성을 가지고 있으며 동시에 가장 간단한 구조이기도 한 아치에 납-고무면진 장치를 적용하여 지진거동을 분석하였다. 대공간구조물의 지진거동은 일반적인 골조구조물의 지진거동과 달리 수평지진에 의하여 수직방향으로 큰 지진응답이 나타나고 있다. 면진장치를 대공간 구조물에 적용할 경우에 수평지진하중에 의하여 수평방향 지진응답이 저감되는 것은 물론 면진장치의 수직강성으로 인하여 수직응답도 현저하게 저감되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to investigate the seismic behavior assessment of circlular-tied bridge piers, particularly with regard to assessing the displacement ductility. The experimental variables of bridge piers test consisted of transverse steel details, amount and spacing different axial load levels etc. The test results indicated that reinforcement concrete bridge piers with confinement steel by the code specification exhibited sufficient ductile behavior and seismic performance. Aldo, it is found that current seismic design code specification of confinement steel requirements may be revised.

Various types of dampers are widely adopted to reduce the seismic damages in bridges. However, dampers may be the improper solution especially in moderate seismic regions because dampers are costly for installation and require constant maintenance during life cycle. In this study, energy-dissipating sacrificial device is proposed, which sacrifices easily substitutable bridge members and dissipates the excessive energy during seismic excitations. In turns, the inelastic behavior of sacrificial members reduces the input energy of the major members, such as piers in bridges, and may prevent the major members from serious malfunction. A simplified mechanical model is developed to represent the behavior of sacrificial devices installed in a bridge. The hysteresis energy of piers is analyzed to certify performance of device under seismic loads applied to this mechanical model. The results from this study show that the proposed sacrificial energy-dissipating device can decrease excessive hysteresis energy and reduce the damage of piers under seismic excitation. Therefore, economical enhancement of the seismic performance of bridges may be possible by employing the proposed sacrificial energy-dissipating devices.

지진에 의한 구조물의 응답을 저감시키기 위하여 내진, 면진, 제진 등 다양한 장치가 사용되고 있으며 그 중에서 면진장치는 구조물로 전달되는 지진에너지를 최소화하기 위한 시스템으로 그 주된 목적은 구조물의 주기를 길게 만들어 지진파의 탁월주기를 벗어나게 하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 대공간구조물의 기본적인 동적특성을 가지고 있으며 동시에 가장 간단한 구조이기도 한 아치에 납-고무면진장치와 마찰진자면진장치를 적용하여 지진거동을 분석하였다. 대공간구조물의 지진거동은 일반적인 골조구조물의 지진거동과 달리 수평지진에 의하여 수직방향으로 큰 지진응답이 나타나고 있다. 면진장치를 대공간 구조물에 적용할 경우에 수평지진하중에 의하여 수평방향 지진응답이 저감되는 것은 물론 면진장치의 수직강성으로 인하여 수직응답도 현저하게 저감되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The behavior of moment resistant steel structures depends on both the beam-column connections and columns foundations connections. Obviously, if the connections can meet the adequate ductility and resistance against lateral loads, the seismic capacity of these structures will be linked practically to the performance of these connections. The shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been most recently used as a means of energy dissipation in buildings. The main approach adopted by researchers in the use of such alloys is firstly bracing, and secondly connecting the beams to columns. Additionally, the behavior of these alloys is modeled in software applications rarely involving equivalent torsional springs and column-foundation connections. This paper attempts to introduce the shape memory alloys and their applications in steel structural connections, proposing a new steel column-foundation connection, not merely a theoretical model but practically a realistic and applicable model in structures. Moreover, it entails the same functionality as macro modeling software based on real behavior, which can use different materials to establish a connection between the columns and foundations. In this paper, the suggested steel column-foundation connection was introduced. Moreover, exploring the seismic dynamic behavior under cyclic loading protocols and the famous earthquake records with different materials such as steel and interconnection equipment by superelastic shape memory alloys have been investigated. Then, the results were compared to demonstrate that such connections are ideal against the seismic behavior and energy dissipation.
