Influence of Ground Motion Spectral Shape on Nonlinear Responses of a 3-Storey RC Frame

Article Preview

Abstract:

Selection and modification of recorded earthquake ground motions is one of the most important issues for reliable seismic performance evaluation of the structure. In order to investigate the influence of ground motion spectral shape on nonlinear seismic response and to find the implication for ground motion selection and modification, a 3-storey RC planar frame is taken as case study in this paper. 15 ground motion records are chosen from PEER Ground Motion Database and Wenchuan Great Earthquake as dynamic analysis inputs.
