| Abstract |
A simplified approach is suggested to predict the response of structures to
nonstationary dynamic excitations. In this approach, a structure is
represented as a combination of collapsing elements and absolutely rigid
blocks. The plastic deformation, accumulation of diffused damage, and
degradation of the stiffness of elements and units in a dynamic process are
taken into account by prescribing the diagrams of cyclic deformation.
Finite displacements of rigid blocks are also taken into account. The
choice of the computational schemes and influence of this choice on the
final results are discussed. The results are used for the
analysis of multistorey buildings subjected to intensive seismic excitations
in the deterministic and probabilistic formulations. |
