Research on Seismic Response Estimation of Reinforced Concrete Pier under Pulse-Type Near-Fault Ground Motion

Article Preview

Abstract:

For estimating seismic response of pier-structure under near-fault ground motion, The typical pulse-type near-fault ground motion records were chosen to establish a record base, and three pier models with different natural period were established; The non-elastic response spectral displacement of ground motion was used to estimate the nonlinear response; The yield displacement of the nonlinear oscillator was defined based on the static pushover analysis result, and its influence on response estimation was studied. The study result is important for structural seismic response estimation by using the non-elastic response spectral displacement and the probability-based seismic performance evaluation.
