Abstract:

The difference of orbit characteristics of bi-directional input waves affecting the elast-plastic response of structural model is investigated.The proposed method extends conventional 1D spectrum-compatible method to 2D, and shows how to match the random trajectory time histories, which is orthogonal in the horizontal plane, with the target bi-axial response spectrum. By extenting the energy spectrum which represents the energy of input seismic motion, the concept of bi-axial energy spectrum is proposed. Using this spectrum, differences in input seismic energy is shown when accelerogram trajectories of the waves vary. In addition, incremental dynamic analysis was carried out for elasto-plastic structural model, subjected to bi-axial response spectrum-compatible waves with different accelerogram trajectories. As a result, there is tendency for using circular trajectory as bi-directional input to show conservative results.
