Elastic-Plastic Seismic Response Analysis on the Special-Shaped Chimney

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on one 240-meter-high special-shaped RC chimney, the structure’s dynamic performance and elastic-plastic seismic response analysis has been studied in detail. From the analysis, it demonstrates the weak areas in the chimney. The interlayer displacement angle about corresponding performance points under four kinds of loading mode were also acuired, and the response of four loading patterns were analyzed.
