Abstract:
A practical implementation of generalized multimodal pushover analysis is presented in this study, where the number of pushovers is reduced significantly in view of the number of modes contributing to seismic response. It has been demonstrated in two case studies that the reduced procedure for generalized push-over analysis is equally successful in estimating the maximum member deformations and forces under a ground excitation with reference to nonlinear response history analysis. It is further shown that the results obtained by using the mean spectrum of a set of ground motions are almost identical to the mean of the results obtained from separate generalized pushover analyses. These results are also very close to the mean results of the nonlinear response history analyses, hence motivating the implementation of generalized pushover analysis with design spectrum.

Abstract:
The role of higher-“mode” pushover analyses in seismic analysis of buildings is examined in this paper. It is demonstrated that the higher-“mode” pushover curves reveal plastic hinge mechanisms that are not detected by the first-“mode” or other FEMA-356 force distributions, but these purely local mechanisms are not likely to develop during realistic ground motions in an otherwise regular building without a soft and/or weak story. Furthermore, the conditions necessary for “reversal” of a higher-“mode” pushover curve are examined. It is shown that “reversal” in a higher-“mode” pushover curve occurs after formation of a mechanism if the resultant force above the bottom of the mechanism is in the direction that moves the roof in a direction opposite to that prior to formation of the mechanism. Such “reversal” can occur only in higher-“mode” pushover analyses but not in the pushover analyses for the first-“mode” or other FEMA-356 force distributions. However, the “reversal” in higher-“mode” pushover curves was found to be very rare in several recent investigations that examined behavior of many moment-resisting frame buildings. Included are guidelines for implementing the Modal Pushover Analysis for buildings that display “reversal” in a higher-“mode” pushover curve.

Abstract:
The paper deals with a multi-mode pushover procedure that considers higher mode effects, frequency content of response spectra as well as nonlinear interaction between modes. Pushover analyses are conducted with story-specific generalized force vectors. Each force vector is calculated through modal analysis and builds up the instantaneous distribution of forces acting on the structure when the interstory drift at each story attains its maximum value during the seismic motion. In order to improve the computational cost effectiveness, both mode truncation and limitation in the number of generalized pushovers are used by checking, however, the accuracy in the evaluation of the interstory drifts at all levels. The target interstory drift is calculated through three different modal combination procedures.

Abstract:
Existing reinforced concrete frame buildings designed for vertical load only could suffer severe damage during earthquakes. In recent years, many research activities have been paid to develop reliable and practical analysis procedure to identify the safety level of existing structures. The research discussed in this paper deals with proposal of an efficient incremental procedure to estimate seismic capacity of irregular structures performing few pushover analysis (one for every relevant modal shape) and applying a series of Modal Pushover Analysis (MPA). This approach, similar to the Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA), replaces the Nonlinear Response History Analyses (NL_RHA) by simple pushover analyses. In this work, this idea, named IMPA (Incremental Modal Pushover Analysis), is proposed for a 3D complex building and this application is described and discussed.

Abstract:
Relative displacement is a parameter that has a very high correlation with damage. The objective of this article is to develop an analysis procedure founded on the displacement-based seismic design methodology. Generalized interstory drift spectrum is applied as an essential tool in this new method called drift pushover analysis. In order to evaluate the behavior of structures, three demand parameters—lateral displacement, story shear, and plastic hinge rotation—are computed with conventional pushover analysis (CPA), modal pushover analysis (MPA), and drift pushover analysis (DPA), and are compared with those of the nonlinear time history analysis (NTA). It is observed that the new method, DPA, predicts the peak response measures more precisely and with less effort than the other nonlinear pushover procedures investigated in this study.

Abstract:
The evaluation of the maximum and cumulative response is an important issue for the seismic design of new base-isolated buildings. This study predicts the maximum and cumulative response of a 14-story reinforced concrete base-isolated building using a set of pushover analyses. In the proposed pushover analysis method, the maximum and cumulative responses of the first and higher modes are evaluated from the nonlinear analysis of equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) models. Then, the maximum local responses are predicted by enveloping the two pushover analysis results by referring to the contribution of the first and higher modal responses, while the cumulative strain energies of the lead-rubber bearings and steel dampers are predicted from the cumulative response of the first mode. The results reveal that the responses predicted by the proposed set of pushover analyses have satisfactory accuracy.

Abstract:
Nonlinear response history analysis is considered as the most accurate analytical tool for estimating seismic response. However, there are several shortcomings in the application of nonlinear response history analysis, resulting from its complexity. Accordingly, simpler approximate nonlinear analysis procedures are preferred in practice. These procedures are called nonlinear static analysis or pushover analysis in general. The recently developed Generalized Pushover Analysis (GPA) is one of them. In this thesis study, GPA is presented and evaluated comparatively with the nonlinear time history analysis and modal pushover analysis. A generalized pushover analysis procedure was developed for estimating the inelastic seismic response of structures under earthquake ground excitations (Sucuoglu and Gü
nay, 2011). In this procedure, different load vectors are applied separately to the structure in the incremental form until the predefined seismic demand is obtained for each force vector. These force vectors are named as generalized force vectors. A generalized force vector is a combination of modal forces, and simulates the instantaneous force distribution on the system when a given response parameter reaches its maximum value during the dynamic response. In this method, the maximum interstory drift parameters are selected as target demand parameters and used for the derivation of generalized force vectors. The maximum value of any other response parameter is then obtained from the analysis results of each generalized force vector. In this way, this procedure does do not suffer from the statistical combination of inelastic modal responses. It is further shown in this study that the results obtained by using the mean spectrum of a set of ground motions are almost identical to the mean of the results obtained from separate generalized pushover analyses under each ground motion in the set. These results are also very close to the mean results of nonlinear response history analyses. A practical implementation of the proposed generalized pushover analysis is also developed in this thesis study where the number of pushovers is reduced in view of the number of significant modes contributing to seismic response. It has been demonstrated that the reduced generalized pushover analysis is equally successful in estimating maximum member deformations and member forces as the full GPA under a ground excitation, and sufficiently accurate with reference to nonlinear response history analysis.

Abstract:
Nonlinear response history analysis is regarded as the most accurate analysis procedure for estimating seismic response. Approximate analysis procedures are also available for the determination of seismic response and they are preferred over nonlinear response history analysis since much less computational effort is required and good response prediction is achieved by employing rather simple concepts. A generalized pushover analysis procedure is developed in this thesis study as an approximate analysis tool for estimating the inelastic seismic response of structures under earthquake ground excitations. The procedure consists of applying generalized force vectors to the structure in an incremental form until a prescribed target interstory drift demand is achieved. Corresponding generalized force vectors are derived according to this target drift parameter and include the contribution of all modes. Unlike many approximate analysis procedures, response of the structure is directly obtained from generalized pushover analysis results without employing a modal combination rule, eliminating the errors cultivating from these methods. Compared to nonlinear response history analysis, generalized pushover analysis is less demanding in computational effort and its implementation is simpler relative to other approximate analysis procedures. It is observed that the proposed analysis procedure yields results accurately in comparison to the other nonlinear pushover analysis methods. Accordingly it can be suggested as a convenient and sound analysis tool.

Pushover analysis is a nonlinear static analysis tool widely used in practice to predict and evaluate seismic performance of structures. Since only the fundamental mode is considered and the inelastic theorem is imperfect for the conventional pushover analysis, a modified Modal Pushover Analysis (MPA) is proposed by researchers. In this thesis, the theories of dynamics for single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) are introduced, including elastic analysis and inelastic analysis. The procedures and equations for time history analysis, modal analysis, pushover analysis and modal pushover analysis are discussed in detail. Then an 8-story height model and a 16-story height model are established for analysis. The pushover analysis is conducted for each equivalent SDOF system, and by combination of the distribution of 1 mode, 2 modes and 3 modes, the responses of modal pushover analysis are obtained. The results of pushover analysis and modal pushover analysis are compared with those of time history analysis. The results of the analysis show that the conventional pushover analysis is mostly limited to low- and medium-rise structures in which only the first mode is considered and where the mode shape is constant. The modal pushover analysis is shown to have a superior accuracy in evaluation of seismic demands for higher buildings, especially for story drift ratios and column shears. With this in mind, some design recommendations and areas of future work are proposed in the conclusion.

Abstract:
Pushover analysis involves certain approximations and simplifications that some amount of variation is always expected to exist in seismic demand prediction of pushover analysis. In literature, some improved pushover procedures have been proposed to overcome the certain limitations of traditional pushover procedures. The effects and the accuracy of invariant lateral load patterns utilised in pushover analysis to predict the behavior imposed on the structure due to randomly selected individual ground motions causing elastic and various levels of nonlinear response were evaluated in this study. For this purpose, pushover analyses using various invariant lateral load patterns and Modal Pushover Analysis were performed on reinforced concrete and steel moment resisting frames covering a broad range of fundamental periods. Certain response parameters predicted by each pushover procedure were compared with the '
exact'
results obtained from nonlinear dynamic analysis. The primary observations from the study showed that the accuracy of the pushover results depends strongly on the load path, properties of the structure and the characteristics of the ground motion. Pushover analyses were performed by both DRAIN-2DX and SAP2000. Similar pushover results were obtained from the two different softwares employed in the study provided that similar approach is used in modeling the nonlinear properties of members as well as their structural features. The accuracy of approximate procedures utilised to estimate target displacement was also studied on frame structures. The accuracy of the predictions was observed to depend on the approximations involved in the theory of the procedures, structural properties and ground motion characteristics.

Abstract:
The earthquake resistant design of structures requires that structures should sustain, safely, any ground motions of an intensity that might occur during their construction or in their normal use. However ground motions are unique in the effects they have on structural responses. The most accurate analysis procedure for structures subjected to strong ground motions is the time-history analysis. This analysis involves the integration of the equations of motion of a multi-degree-of-freedom system, MDOF, in the time domain using a stepwise solution in order to represent the actual response of a structure. This method is time-consuming though for application in all practical purposes. The necessity for faster methods that would ensure a reliable structural assessment or design of structures subjected to seismic loading led to the pushover analysis. Pushover analysis is based on the assumption that structures oscillate predominantly in the first mode or in the lower modes of vibration during a seismic event. This leads to a reduction of the multi-degree-of-freedom, MDOF system, to an equivalent single-degreeof- freedom, ESDOF system, with properties predicted by a nonlinear static analysis of the MDOF system. The ESDOF system is then subsequently subjected to a nonlinear timehistory analysis or to a response spectrum analysis with constant-ductility spectra, or damped spectra. The seismic demands calculated for the ESDOF system are transformed through modal relationships to the seismic demands of the MDOF system. In this study the applicability of the pushover method as an alternative mean to general design and assessment is examined. Initially a series of SDOF systems is subjected to two different pushover methods and to nonlinear-time-history analyses. The results from this study show that pushover analysis is not able to capture the seismic demands imposed by far-field or near-fault ground motions, especially for short-period systems for which it can lead to significant errors in the estimation of the seismic demands. In the case of near-fault ground motions the results suggest that pushover analysis may underestimate the displacement demands for systems with periods lower than half the dominant pulse period of the ground motion and overestimate them for systems with periods equal or higher than half the dominant pulse period of the ground motion. Subsequently a two-degree-offreedom, 2-DOF, is studied in the same manner with specific intention to assess the accuracy of the different load patterns proposed in the literature. For this system pushover analysis performed similarly as in the SDOF study. Finally the method is applied on a four-storey reinforced concrete frame structure. For this study pushover analysis was not effective in capturing the seismic demands imposed by both a far-field and a near-fault ground motion. Overall pushover analysis can be unconservative in estimating seismic demands of structures and it may lead to unsafe design.

Abstract:
Contemporary approach performance based engineering generally relies on the approximate procedures that are based on the use of capacity curve derived from pushover analysis. The most important parameter in the displacement-based approach is the inelastic displacement demand computed under a given seismic effect and the most common procedures employed for this estimation
the Capacity Spectrum Method and the Displacement Coefficient Method are based on bi-linearization of the capacity curve. Although there are some recommendations for this approximation, there is a vital need for rational guidelines towards the selection of the most appropriate method among several alternatives. A comprehensive research has been undertaken to evaluate the influence of several existing alternatives used for approximating the capacity curve on seismic demands. A number of frames were analyzed under a set of 100 ground motions employing OpenSees. In addition, the pushover curves obtained from nonlinear static analyses were approximated using several alternatives and the resulting curves were assigned as the force-deformation relationships of corresponding equivalent single-degree-of-freedom systems. These simplified systems were later analyzed to compute the approximate seismic response parameters. Using the results of the complex and simplified analyses, the performance of each approximation method was evaluated in estimating the &

Abstract:
It has been observed in major recent earthquakes that older reinforced concrete buildings experienced more serious damage than newer buildings. This is because they often present many structural deficiencies. To prevent further losses in future earthquakes, the seismic capacity of these older buildings needs to be assessed so that appropriate measures can be implemented to mitigate their vulnerability. In this research an adaptive pushover analysis is proposed as an analytical tool to carry out the seismic assessment of these older reinforced concrete buildings, where the following new methods and procedures are proposed. 1) A compound-spring member is used to model the critical regions in the members. This model accounts for possible failure in flexure, shear, or combined shear-flexure and makes the member's stiffness strength dependent. 2) The modified Rayleigh method is used to determine the lateral forces distribution and increment. 3) An automatic calculation of the structure's ductility is used for the seismic assessment using a force-based method. 4) Automatic calculations of the structure's lateral displacement capacity and effective period are used for the seismic assessment using a displacement based-method. 5) An automatic determination of the structural critical condition. 6) Step-by-step procedure to carry out a seismic assessment using the proposed adaptive pushover analysis. 7) The development of a pre-processor program to overcome difficulties in preparing the input data to carry out the analyses. The term adaptive is used because in each step of the analysis the following parameters are updated and evaluated as the lateral displacement is increased: 2000 11 1) flexural strength in the flexural spring, 2) shear strength in the shear spring, 3) lateral forces distribution and increment, 4) structural lateral strength, 5) structural period, 6) structural lateral displacement, 7) structural ductility. Using the proposed methods and the pre-processor program, the adaptive pushover analysis can directly give the following seismic capacity parameters using data obtained from the site or structural drawings. 1) Fundamental period, T₁ 2) Base shear capacity, Vbase 3) Effective period, Teff 4) Structure's ductility capacity, μ 5) Structure's lateral displacement capacity, δu Based on these parameters, the seismic assessment can then be carried out using either a forcebased method or a displacement-based method as suggested by NZNSEE (1996), where the seismic demand is determined from response spectra. In the force-based method the building is expected to perform satisfactorily during the seismic event corresponding to the given response spectra if the ductility capacity is greater than the ductility demand. In the displacement-based method the building is expected to perform satisfactorily during the seismic event corresponding to the given response spectra if the lateral displacement capacity is greater than the lateral displacement demand. If the seismic capacity is less than the seismic demand, a further step is then carried out to estimate the reliable earthquake return period in which the structure will perform satisfactorily so that decision on appropriate action can be made.

Abstract:
The work for the present thesis started in California, during my semester as an exchange student overseas. California is known worldwide for its seismicity and its effort in the earthquake engineering research field. For this reason, I immediately found interesting the Structural Dynamics Professor, Maria Q. Feng's proposal, to work on a pushover analysis of the existing Jamboree Road Overcrossing bridge. Concrete is a popular building material in California, and for the most part, it serves its functions well. However, concrete is inherently brittle and performs poorly during earthquakes if not reinforced properly. The San Fernando Earthquake of 1971 dramatically demonstrated this characteristic. Shortly thereafter, code writers revised the design provisions for new concrete buildings so to provide adequate ductility to resist strong ground shaking. There remain, nonetheless, millions of square feet of non-ductile concrete buildings in California. The purpose of this work is to perform a Pushover Analysis and compare the results with those of a Nonlinear Time-History Analysis of an existing bridge, located in Southern California. The analyses have been executed through the software OpenSees, the Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation. The bridge Jamboree Road Overcrossing is classified as a Standard Ordinary Bridge. In fact, the JRO is a typical three-span continuous cast-in-place prestressed post-tension box-girder. The total length of the bridge is 366 ft., and the height of the two bents are respectively 26,41 ft. and 28,41 ft.. Both the Pushover Analysis and the Nonlinear Time-History Analysis require the use of a model that takes into account for the nonlinearities of the system. In fact, in order to execute nonlinear analyses of highway bridges it is essential to incorporate an accurate model of the material behavior. It has been observed that, after the occurrence of destructive earthquakes, one of the most damaged elements on highway bridges is a column. To evaluate the performance of bridge columns during seismic events an adequate model of the column must be incorporated. Part of the work of the present thesis is, in fact, dedicated to the modeling of bents. Different types of nonlinear element have been studied and modeled, with emphasis on the plasticity zone length determination and location. Furthermore, different models for concrete and steel materials have been considered, and the selection of the parameters that define the constitutive laws of the different materials have been accurate. The work is structured into four chapters, to follow a brief overview of the content. The first chapter introduces the concepts related to capacity design, as the actual philosophy of seismic design. Furthermore, nonlinear analyses both static, pushover, and dynamic, time-history, are presented. The final paragraph concludes with a short description on how to determine the seismic demand at a specific site, according to the latest design criteria in California. The second chapter deals with the formulation of force-based finite elements and the issues regarding the objectivity of the response in nonlinear field. Both concentrated and distributed plasticity elements are discussed into detail. The third chapter presents the existing structure, the software used OpenSees, and the modeling assumptions and issues. The creation of the nonlinear model represents a central part in this work. Nonlinear material constitutive laws, for concrete and reinforcing steel, are discussed into detail; as well as the different scenarios employed in the columns modeling. Finally, the results of the pushover analysis are presented in chapter four. Capacity curves are examined for the different model scenarios used, and failure modes of concrete and steel are discussed. Capacity curve is converted into capacity spectrum and intersected with the design spectrum. In the last paragraph, the results of nonlinear time-history analyses are compared to those of pushover analysis.

Abstract:
The analysis procedures employed in earthquake engineering can be classified as linear static, linear dynamic, nonlinear static and nonlinear dynamic. Linear procedures are usually referred to as force controlled and require less analysis time and less computational effort. On the other hand, nonlinear procedures are referred to as deformation controlled and they are more reliable in characterizing the seismic performance of buildings. However, there is still a great deal of unknowns for nonlinear procedures, especially in modelling the reinforced concrete structures. Turkey ranks high among all countries that have suffered losses of life and property due to earthquakes over many centuries. These casualties indicate that, most regions of the country are under seismic risk of strong ground motion. In addition to this phenomenon, recent studies have demonstrated that near fault ground motions are more destructive than far-fault ones on structures and these effects can not be captured effectively by recent nonlinear static procedures. The main objective of this study is developing a simple nonlinear dynamic analysis procedure which is named as &ldquo
Dynamic Pull Analysis&rdquo
for estimating the seismic response of multi degree of freedom (MDOF) systems. The method is tested on a six-story reinforced concrete frame and a twelve-story reinforced concrete frame that are designed according to the regulations of TS-500 (2000) and TEC (1997).

Abstract:
Pushover analysis is performed to determine the capacity of jacket type offshore structures subjected to lateral loads. Overall behavior of the platform in the nonlinear range of deformation can be observed from pushover analysis results. This analysis can be used for the platform capacity assessment. For performing pushover analysis, nonlinear behavior of structural elements and lateral load pattern should be obtained. Both displacement and load control type of the analysis can be performed. One of the important aspects of pushover analysis is the non-linear behavior of the underlying soil and its interaction with the pile. In this paper pushover analysis of sample jacket type offshore platforms considering pile soil interaction (PSI) is performed. In the pushover analysis performed, fiber elements are used for the modeling of the member and soil nonlinearities. Actual soil layer properties, which have been derived from geotechnical reports, are incorporated in the model using fiber elements of “DRAIN-3DX” software. Each soil layer is presented by an equivalent fiber element, having the same characteristics of the relevant soil. The pile structure from top elevation until its tip together with other jacket components including the legs and braces are also introduced by fiber elements. Push over analysis is performed for the platforms subjected to wave load pattern. In order to compare the Pile-Soil Interaction (PSI) effects, all of the analyses are also performed using fixed and pinned pile ends at mud line elevation and pile stubs. The significance of the Pile-Soil Interaction and soil non-linear behavior is pointed out from this comparison and analysis results.

Abstract:
Near-fault earthquakes can have major effects on transportation systems due to the structural damage they impose on bridges. Therefore, it is imperative to assess the seismic damage of bridges appropriately, and this research focuses on reinforced concrete (RC) bridges. This research advances the seismic performance assessment of RC single-column pier-supported bridges with flexural failure under near-fault ground motion by use of ductility coefficients and damage indices. The methodology included modeling fiber-based nonlinear beam-column elements to simulate the damage development process of RC bridge piers under earthquake loadings, considering the global buckling of longitudinal steel bars, examining the cracking and spalling of cover concrete, and analyzing the effects of bond-slip. The tensile strain represented the damage of the longitudinal bars while the compression strain represented the cover concrete damage. Two innovative nonlinear fiber-based finite element models (FEMs) were developed: Model 1 (bond-slip excluded) and Model 2 (bond-slip included). Nonlinear static cyclic pushover analyses and nonlinear response history analyses were conducted. The simulation results were compared with available pseudo-dynamic test results. Model 1 provided a more ideal prognosis on the seismic performance of RC single-column pier-supported bridges under near-fault ground motion. The proposed damage indices can indicate the damage state at any stage and the gradual accumulation of damage in RC bridge piers, which are more convincing than most other indices in the literature. The proposed fiber-based nonlinear FEMs, together with the use of ductility coefficients and proposed damage indices, can also assist engineers and researchers in simulating the seismic behavior and assessing the damage state of RC bridge columns in a computationally effective manner which can empower engineers to identify and prioritize RC bridges for seismic retrofit and maintenance.

STUDY ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SIMPLIFIED STEEL FRAME MODEL WITH EXTERNAL WALL PANELS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/icass2020.p.334.

Full text
Abstract:
A simplified analysis model of the overall steel frame with external wall panels is established by finite element numerical method, and the influence of external wall panels on the internal force and seismic performance of the steel frame is studied. Pushover analysis and cyclic loading analysis are carried out on the simplified model. The results show that the external wall panel can improve the initial stiffness and ultimate bearing capacity of the steel frame, and after considering the external wall panel, the shear demand of the column increases accordingly. Moreover, compared with the pure steel frame, the ability of the steel frame structure with the external wall panel to maintain the strength and rigidity and the energy consumption capacity are significantly improved, and the cumulative energy consumption can increase by about 16.6%. The contribution of the external wall panels to the horizontal force of the steel frame structure can reach up to about 22% when the node sliding reaches the limit, and then gradually decreases to 3.5-5.4% with the increase of the loading displacement, which still has a non-negligible impact on improving the lateral resistance of the structure.
