Pounding Response of Adjacent Buildings Subjected to Spatial Earthquake Ground Excitations
Pounding damage is a serious seismic hazard in highly populated areas during major earthquakes. This paper evaluates the effect of earthquake ground motion spatial variations on pounding responses of adjacent structures. Adjacent structures are modeled as two single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) oscillators with multiple supports. Pounding effects are simulated by spring-dashpot pounding elements. Linear elastic and nonlinear inelastic responses are considered in the analysis. Spatial ground motion input is stochastically simulated. The simulated spatial ground motion time histories are compatible with Newmark and Hall design spectrum individually and with an empirical coherency function between each other. The Newmark method with constant acceleration assumption is employed in step-by-step integration to calculate structural response. Numerical results are presented and discussed in terms of various structural and ground motion parameters.
