22 IMPORTANCE OF HIGH-PASS FILTER CORNER ON LONG-PERIOD STRUCTURAL RESPONSE (From: Becky, R., K. Buyco, and T. Heaton (2017). Filtered data is less likely to introduce collapse in tall buildings than raw records, SSA Annual Meeting in Denver, CO, April 2017) Ground Displacement Displacement response spectra Inter-story drifts in a 20-story building The data processing method used in NGA database (i.e., 10 sec. non-causal, zero-phase Butterworth filter) removes the tilt effects from the record and may cause under-estimation of P-Δ effects and collapse probability in long-period structures.

40 SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR NEW APPROACHES: Ø Utilize data from dense urban networks to supplement GMPEs Ø Use a probabilistic approach to calculate response spectra Ø Use energy and energy flux for ground motion description and structural response

41 CAN WE UTILIZE DATA FROM DENSE URBAN NETWORKS TO LOCALIZE GMPEs? Example: Istanbul Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø real-time strong-motion stations (700 more are currently being installed) Over 7,000 records from M>3.00 earthquakes Well known fault path Topography seems to be important in shaking distribution Can a calibrated 3D seismic model be an alternative to GMPEs? 41

43 Standard Response Spectra The rate of decay of amplitudes with increasing peak number gives a measure of duration.

Energy response spectrum is the plot of (E I ) max against T 0 = 2π /ω 0 for given a(t) and ξ 0.

47 ENERGY FLUX Amount of energy transmitted through a cross section per unit time. A=1 v(t) V, ρ E(t) Energy Flux = 1 2 (mass density) (ground velocity)2 (wave propagation velocity) E(t) = 1 2 ρ [v(t)]2 V

48 PROPAGATION OF ENERGY FLUX IN A MULTI-STORY BUILDING Layer j+1 D j+1 U j (t) = A j 2( f ) [α j 1 ( f ) D j (t τ j ) + β j 1 ( f ) U j 1 (t τ j )] U j+1 Interface j D j (t) = A j 2( f ) [α j ( f ) U j (t τ j ) + β j ( f ) D j+1 (t τ j )] Layer j Interface j-1 Layer j-1 U j U j- 1 D j D j- 1 α, β = Energy reflection and transmission coefficients τ = Wave travel time in the layer A( f ) = exp πτ f Q - Energy loss due to damping

52 SOME CONCLUSIONS: Performance- based design requires the control of inelas/c deforma/ons, which are very sensi/ve to the ini/al build- up of ground accelera/ons and the yield point of the structure. Surface waves from distant large earthquakes can be cri/cal for long- period structures because of rota/onal excita/ons and P- Δ effects. Dura/on of vibra/on of a structure is related to its natural frequency and damping, and does not always correlate with the dura/on of earthquake. Collapse of son- first- story structures is also controlled by P- Δ effects and ver/cal ground accelera/ons. - Damping in tall buildings decrease with increasing height, and can be as low as 1%. - - Probabilis/c response spectra provide much more informa/on than standard response spectra. Energy- based representa/on of ground shaking and structural response can be a powerful alterna/ve to current seismic design methods.
