| Abstract |
The pounding of structures during strong earthquakes is considered
with nonlinear deformation, damage of bearing members, and large
relative displacements being taken into account. The consideration
is based on the rigid-collapsing model in which all effects of damage,
fracture, and local loss of stability are concentrated in most
stressed zones (for example, lower storey in multistorey buildings),
while the other parts of the structure are treated as rigid bodies.
To study ambivalent character of the pounding, the behavior of two
adjacent multistorey buildings is compared with the behavior of
an isolated building. Mutual pounding of adjacent buildings with
different number of storey is considered. In particular, the process
of collapse of a multistorey building resulting from the impact
interaction of this building with an adjacent building with a reduced
number of storey is modeled. |
