Estimation of Displacement Modification Factor for Soil Structure Systems with Embedded Foundation Structures and Stiffness Degradation Hysteresis Models, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ghannad, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
The effect of soil structure interaction, on displacement modification factor in constant reduction factors (CR) is evaluated, studied for SDOF structures placed on flexible base modeled by 3DOF system as the base foundation (a sway, a rocking and an internal degree of freedom to see the frequency dependency of dynamic stiffness of soil). 60 records of FEMA-440 for 3 types of soils (B, C and D) are analyzed for 28 different soil-structure conditions, 6 different level of reduction factors, and varied secondary hardening for 2 different hysteresis behavior to see the effect of stiffness hardening. Results are plotted in spectrums to see the role of Tn.
Final results show that effect of... Cataloging briefEstimation of Displacement Modification Factor for Soil Structure Systems with Embedded Foundation Structures and Stiffness Degradation Hysteresis Models, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ghannad, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor)
