Damped free motion of rocking specimens in non-linear time history response analysis
In dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI), the structure such as a building, the sway
of the foundation and the rocking on ground, during an earthquake, are usually analyzed without
coupled system. In this paper, assuming a restoring force - displacement characteristics
for rocking, while the structure and the sway on the assumption are rigid body, non - linear time
history response analysis of rocking in the damped free motion of are carried out, with the
comparison of the experimental values
Predominant periods of multi-degree-of-freedomsystem analysis and dynamic soil-structure interaction for building structures
Coupled problems of the multi-degree-of-freedom-system (MDOF) or SoilStructure Interaction (SSI) are usually translated to a series of the single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) equations. In this paper, the predominant periods of MDOF analysis are analyzed without SDOF and the dynamic amplification factors for a sample data of a model building are shown. The analysis method is the assumption that, as well as SDOF analysis, the MDOF analysis is applied to the predominant periods by inelastic analysis. That can give the dynamic amplification factors of the MDOF. At the results, it is cleared that the predominant period of the MDOF is close to be the period by the eigenvalues and in the short period or in the high level modes, the dynamic amplification factors are high which should not be neglected. Moreover, soil-structure interaction with SDOF are also analyzed by elastic analysis for the model building. Some effects to the building structure model by the rocking on the ground are discussed in the sway-rocking models
