- 2. Ground Motion Accelerogram: This basic instrument to record three components of ground shaking (up-down, N-S, E-W) during earthquakes is the strong-motion accelerograph which does not record continuously but is triggered into motion by the first waves of the earthquake to arrive. For engineering purposes, the time variation of ground acceleration 𝑢𝑔 𝑡 is the most useful way of defining the shaking of the ground during an earthquake. 𝑃𝑒𝑓𝑓 𝑡 = −𝑚 𝑢𝑔 𝑡 This is because
- 4. Ground motions recorded during several earthquakes: -highly regular -wide variety of amplitude, duration, frequency content and general appearance of different records can be clearly seen.
- 6. Elastic Response Spectra: If a record of ground acceleration 𝑢𝑔 𝑡 is known, then the deformation response of a linearly elastic SDOF system can be computed by the convolution integral (See Eq.(27)), and internal forces of interest to structural engineers such as bending moments, shears can be subsequently determined. Equation of motion: 𝑚 𝑢 + 𝑐 𝑢 + 𝑘 𝑢 = −𝑚 𝑢𝑔 𝑡 The equation can also be written in the form of 𝑢 + 2 𝜉 𝜔𝑛 𝑢 + 𝜔2 𝑛 𝑢 = −𝑢𝑔 𝑡 (29)
- 7. It turns out that, for a given ground acceleration 𝑢𝑔 𝑡 , the deformation response depends only on 𝜔𝑛 (or 𝑇𝑛) and 𝜉𝑛 of the SDOF system. D F W= 2𝜋 𝑇𝑛 k=mW^2
- 9. Response Spectrum: A plot of the peak value of a response quantity as a function of the natural vibration period 𝑇𝑛 of the system, or related parameter, is called the response spectrum for the quantity. The response spectrum provides a convenient mean to summarize the peak response of all possible linear SDOF systems to a particular component of ground motion. It also provides a practical approach to apply the knowledge of structural dynamics to the design of structures and development of lateral force requirements in building codes. Let 𝑢0 be the peak displacement of SDOF system, Once 𝑢0 is obtained from the deformation response spectrum, the corresponding peak internal forces 𝑓𝑠0 can be determined by:
- 10. 𝑓𝑠0 = 𝑘 𝑢0 or 𝑓𝑠0 = 𝑚 𝜔2 𝑛 𝑢0 = 𝑚 𝐴 (30) where 𝐴 = 𝜔2 𝑛 𝑢0 (31) Note that 𝑓𝑠0 is 𝑚 × 𝐴 not 𝑚 × 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑒𝑎𝑘 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑐𝑐𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 (𝑢𝑡)0 𝐴 is not real peak acceleration response but it has units of acceleration 𝐴 is called “Peak Pseudo-acceleration”
- 11. 𝑓𝑠0 can also be considered as an “equivalent static force” because if the force 𝑓𝑠0 is applied to the structure statically it will produce the equivalent amount of peak deformation response 𝑢0. Vbo
- 12. 𝑉𝑏0 = 𝑓𝑠0 = 𝑚 𝐴 Let 𝑉𝑏0 be the peak value of base shear (32) It can be written in the form 𝑉𝑏0 = 𝐴 𝑔 𝓌 (33) Where 𝓌 is the weight of the structure and 𝑔 is the gravitational acceleration. 𝐴/𝑔 may be interpreted as the base share coefficient or lateral force coefficient*. *It is used in the building codes to represent the coefficient by which the structural weight is multiplied to obtain the base shear.
- 14. The Pseudo velocity 𝒱 is related to the peak values of the strain energy, 𝐸𝑠0, stored in the system: 𝐸𝑠0 = 1 2 𝑘𝑢2 0 = 1 2 𝑘𝐷2 = 1 2 𝑚𝜔2 𝑛𝐷2 = 1 2 𝑚𝒱2 (34) The kinetic energy of the structural mass 𝑚 with velocity 𝒱.
