Self-tuning fuzzy logic control of a non-linear structural system with ATMD against earthquake

Self-tuning fuzzy logic controllers (STFLC) for the active control of Marmara Kocaeli earthquake excited building structures are studied in this paper. Vibration control using intelligent controllers, such as fuzzy logic has attracted the attention of structural control engineers during the last few years, because fuzzy logic can handle nonlinearities, uncertainties, and heuristic knowledge effectively and easily. The improved seismic control performance can be achieved by converting a simply designed static gain into a real time variable dynamic gain through a self-tuning mechanism. Self-tuning fuzzy logic controller is designed to reduce the story-drift of each floor. The simulated system has a nine-degree-of-freedom, which is modeled using nonlinear behavior of the base-structure interaction. Modeled system was simulated against the ground motion of the Marmara Kocaeli earthquake (M _w=7.4) in Turkey on 17 August, 1999. At the end of the study, the time history of the story displacements, accelerations, ATMD displacements, control voltage, and frequency responses of the both uncontrolled and controlled cases are presented. The robustness of the controller has been checked through the uncertainty in stiffness of the structure. Performance of the designed STFLC has been demonstrated for the different disturbance using ground motion of the Kobe earthquake. Simulations of an earthquake excited nine story structure are performed to prove the validity of proposed control strategy.     

汶川震区北川9.24暴雨泥石流特征研究

2008年9月24日汶川震区的北川县暴雨导致区域性泥石流发生,这次9.24暴雨泥石流灾害导致了42人死亡,对公路和其他基础设施造成严重损毁。本研究采用地面调查和遥感解译方法分析地震与暴雨共同作用下的泥石流特征,获取的气象数据用于分析泥石流起动的临界雨量条件。本文探讨了研究区泥石流起动和输移过程,并根据野外调查,分析了泥石流形成的降雨、岩石和断层作用,特别是强降雨过程与物源区对泥石流发生的作用。根据应急调查发现北川县境内暴雨诱发的泥石流72处,其分布受岩石类型、发震断层和河流等因素控制。根据对研究区震前和震后泥石流发生的临界雨量和雨强的初步分析,汶川地震后,该区域泥石流起动的前期累积雨量降低了14.8%～22.1%,小时雨强降低25.4 %～31.6%。震区泥石流起动方式主要有二种,一是由于暴雨过程形成的斜坡表层径流导致悬挂于斜坡上的滑坡体表面和前缘松散物质向下输移,进入沟道后转为泥石流过程;二是"消防水管效应"使沟道水流快速集中,并强烈冲刷沟床中松散固体物质,导致沟床物质起动并形成泥石流过程。调查和分析发现沟内堆积的滑坡坝对泥石流的阻塞明显,溃决后可导致瞬时洪峰流量特别大。研究结果表明了汶川震区已进入一个新的活跃期。因此,应该开展对汶川地震区的泥石流风险评估和监测、早期预警,采取有效的工程措施控制泥石流的发生和危害。     

液化地基中桩的破坏机理研究进展

地震诱发的地基液化对桩基础的破坏极大,液化地基中桩的破坏机理是岩土地震工程中的一个重要研究课题。目前地基液化时桩—土—结构系统的地震性态尚没有认识充分,已有的研究内容较多局限于桩身材料的强度破坏方面,难以考虑液化土体侧向流动、基桩屈曲失稳、以及土与结构动力相互作用等复杂因素的影响。本文重点加强以下3个方面的深入探讨和研究:(1)液化地基中桩的屈曲失稳;(2)液化地基中桩基破坏的数值模拟新方法;(3)液化地基中桩-土-结构的动力相互作用分析。

Evaluation of earthquake-induced structural damages by wavelet transform

The dynamic behavior of inelastic structures during an earthquake is a complicated non-stationary process that is affected by the random characteristics of seismic ground motions. The conventional Fourier analysis describes the feature of a dynamic process by decomposing the signal into infinitely long sine and cosine series, which loses all time-located information. However, both time and frequency localizations are necessary for the analysis of an evolutionary spectrum of non-stationary processes. In this paper, an analytical approach for seismic ground motions is developed by applying the wavelet transform, which focuses on the energy input to the structure. The procedure of identification of the instantaneous modal parameters based on the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is given in detail. And then, a novel method using the auto-regressive moving average (ARMA), called "prediction extension”, is presented to remedy the edge effect during the numerical computation of the CWT. The effectiveness of the method is verified by the use of the benchmark model developed by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). Finally, a scale model with three-storey reinforced concrete frame-share wall structure is made and tested on a shaking table to investigate the relation between the dynamic properties of structures and energy accumulation and its change rates during the earthquake. The results have shown that the wavelet transform is able to provide a deep insight into the identity of transient signals through time-frequency maps of the time variant spectral decomposition.     

微震振源激振模型及振动周期与震级的关系

为了研究矿山微震的振动周期和振动周期与震级的关系,通过微震激振模型的建立,推导出顶板离层微震发生的振动周期与断裂尺度的关系,振动周期与岩体的物理密度和弹性模量有关,同时决定于裂纹的尺度和约束条件.根据矿山微震不同于地震的特点,通过现场测试数据建立了振幅计算近震震级ML、持续时间计算震级Md,特别是通过微震振源激振模型推导出了周期计算震级MT的公式,这三种方法都是测定微震震级大小的标度,由于周期计算的震级不受距离衰减、吸收衰减及微震波辐射方向性的影响,对记录限幅的情况颇为有效,所以在微震震级测定上有很大的应用价值.

青海玉树Ms7.1级地震地质灾害主要特征

2010年4月14日7时49分,青海省玉树县发生Ms7.1级地震。玉树地震产生较连续的地表破裂和大量房屋破坏,并诱发了滑坡、崩塌和震裂山体。此外,地震诱发的砂土液化、水渠溃决等加剧了局部山体地质灾害。通过现场调查和地震前后玉树县地质灾害发育状况,简要阐述了地震地质灾害的主要发育特征,包括震后地质灾害数量明显增加、地震地质灾害分布受活动断裂控制、低位滑坡为主、地质灾害链生效应显著等,并对灾后重建过程中的地质灾害防治提出了建议。     

汶川地震地表破裂影响带调查与建筑场地避让宽度探讨

5.12汶川Ms8.0级地震沿龙门山中央断裂带形成长度约270km的地表破裂带,破裂带垂直和水平位移一般为1.0～5.0m,最大可达9.8m。在地表破裂带附近,建筑物破坏严重。笔者系统调查了龙门山中央断裂带地表破裂的垂直和水平位移以及地震地表破裂影响带宽度,并采用物探测试方法对部分影响带宽度进行了验证。统计结果表明,汶川地震地表破裂影响带宽度主要集中在16～60m,影响带宽度（D）与垂直位移（H）具有较好的线性关系,即D=10.11H+16.0。对于逆冲性质为主的地震地表破裂而言,上盘影响带宽度与下盘的比值一般为3：1～2：1,据此可确定地表破裂带上、下盘的避让带宽度。笔者根据现场调查并借鉴国外经验提出,上盘避让宽度下限一般不应低于15m,下盘避让宽度下限不应低于10m。本项研究对于汶川地震灾后重建场地选址具有重要的实际意义。
