Download or read book Seismic Structural Health Monitoring written by Maria Pina Limongelli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-24 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes a collection of state-of-the-art contributions addressing both theoretical developments in, and successful applications of, seismic structural health monitoring (S2HM). Over the past few decades, Seismic SHM has expanded considerably, due to the growing demand among various stakeholders (owners, managers and engineering professionals) and researchers. The discipline has matured in the process, as can be seen by the number of S2HM systems currently installed worldwide. Furthermore, the responses recorded by S2HM systems hold great potential, both with regard to the management of emergency situations and to ordinary maintenance needs. The book’s 17 chapters, prepared by leading international experts, are divided into four major sections. The first comprises six chapters describing the specific requirements of S2HM systems for different types of civil structures and infrastructures (buildings, bridges, cultural heritage, dams, structures with base isolation devices) and for monitoring different phenomena (e.g. soil-structure interaction and excessive drift). The second section describes available methods and computational tools for data processing, while the third is dedicated to hardware and software tools for S2HM. In the book’s closing section, five chapters report on state-of-the-art applications of S2HM around the world.

Abstract: The dynamic interaction between the soil and the structure resting on it during earthquakes can alter the response characteristics both of the structure and the soil. Despite significant efforts over the past decades, the interaction effect is not yet fully understood and is sometimes misunderstood. In the context of performance based design, there remain a number of uncertainties to be addressed seriously. Current practice of seismic soil-structure response analysis has tended to focus on the effect of horizontal motion although actual ground motions are comprised of both horizontal and vertical components. In several recent earthquakes, very strong vertical ground motions have been recorded, raising great concern over the potential effect of vertical motion on engineering structures. To address this emerging problem, seismic response considering the soil-structure interaction effect to both vertical and horizontal earthquake motions needs to be investigated. This thesis presents a simple and practical framework for the analysis of site response and soil-structure interaction to both horizontal and vertical earthquake motions, which can take into account the soil nonlinearity and material damping effect. The analysis procedure involves the use of the dynamic stiffness matrix method and equivalent-linear approach and is built in the modern MATLAB environment to take the full advantages of the matrix operations in MATLAB. The input motions can be specified at the soil-bedrock interface or a rock outcropping. A detailed assessment of the procedure is provided to illustrate that the procedure is able to produce acceptable predictions of both vertical and horizontal response of soil-structure systems. It is shown that soil nonlinearity plays an important role in altering the response of the structure and soil, and the methods of analysis for soil-structure interaction adopted in current engineering practice may not be able to adequately account for soil nonlinearity. Furthermore, effects of a number of influencing factors, such as material damping ratio, Poisson's ratio of soil, intensity and location of input motion and the embedment ratio of the foundation are examined, leading to several useful implications for seismic engineering practice.

Book Synopsis Developments in Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction by : Polat Gülkan

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last couple of decades it has been recognized that the foundation material on which a structure is constructed may interact dynamically with the structure during its response to dynamic excitation to the extent that the stresses and deflections in the system are modified from the values that would have been developed if it had been on a rigid foundation. This phenomenon is examined in detail in the book. The basic solutions are examined in time and frequency domains and finite element and boundary element solutions compared. Experimental investigations aimed at correlation and verification with theory are described in detail. A wide variety of SSI problems may be formulated and solved approximately using simplified models in lieu of rigorous procedures; the book gives a good overview of these methods. A feature which often lacks in other texts on the subject is the way in which dynamic behavior of soil can be modeled. Two contributors have addressed this problem from the computational and physical characterization viewpoints. The book illustrates practical areas with the analysis of tunnel linings and stiffness and damping of pile groups. Finally, design code provisions and derivation of design input motions complete this thorough overview of SSI in conventional engineering practice. Taken in its entirety the book, authored by fifteen well known experts, gives an in-depth review of soil-structure interaction across a broad spectrum of aspects usually not covered in a single volume. It should be a readily useable reference for the research worker as well as the advance level practitioner. (abstract) This book treats the dynamic soil-structure interaction phenomenon across a broad spectrum of aspects ranging from basic theory, simplified and rigorous solution techniques and their comparisons as well as successes in predicting experimentally recorded measurements. Dynamic soil behavior and practical problems are given thorough coverage. It is intended to serve both as a readily understandable reference work for the researcher and the advanced-level practitioner.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During an earthquake, the flexibility of the near-surface soil affects the dynamic response of the supported structure. This dynamic interaction is termed soil-structure interaction (SSI). Soil-structure interaction is important for performance-based design, which has seen increasing use in earthquake engineering in the United States in the last decade. Soil-structure interaction analysis is preceded by site-response analysis, which is the process of calculating the response of a soil profile to rock motion at depth. Soil flexibility also results in the interaction of adjacent structures through intermediate soil. This interaction is termed structure-soil-structure interaction (SSSI), which can be important for the performance assessment of buildings, especially those constructed in dense, urban areas. The studies presented in this dissertation share the common goal of a better understanding of the phenomena of site response, SSI and SSSI, and advancing the numerical tools that simulate these phenomena. The state-of-the-art in site-response and SSI analysis of buildings and nuclear structures involves the use of linear or equivalent-linear numerical methods that function in the frequency domain. However, nonlinear time-domain methods may be more appropriate for cases involving intense earthquakes that result in highly nonlinear soil and foundation response. Such nonlinear methods are available but rarely used due to the higher computational requirements and lack of experience with analysts and regulators. This dissertation assesses industry-standard equivalent linear and nonlinear site-response and SSI analysis programs, and provides practical guidelines on their usage. The assessment includes benchmarking the time-domain programs against frequency-domain programs for analyses involving almost linear soil response, and a comparison of the predictions of these programs for analyses involving highly nonlinear soil and foundation response. The assessment also identifies the various pitfalls that can be expected when using these programs and suggests workarounds. Structure-soil-structure interaction has been rarely studied, mainly due to the lack of experimental or field-based case-studies that demonstrate its effects on structural response. The US National Science Foundation funded a research project titled `Seismic Performance Assessment of Buildings in Dense Urban Environments' to understand the significance of SSSI in buildings through a series of centrifuge experiments and numerical simulations. The experiments involve small-scale building models with commonly-found superstructure and foundation configurations. This dissertation describes some of these centrifuge experiments, and their numerical simulations, which are comprehensive and performed using both equivalent-linear and nonlinear SSI analysis programs. The numerical and experimental results show that wave-based SSSI does not significantly affect the global response of the buildings considered in this study.
