It is necessary to study tunnel dynamic response under action of normal fault slip and earthquake. In this paper, a three-dimensional normal fault sliding device was designed, and a shaking table test was carried out to study tunnel seismic performance under normal fault slip. The results show that peak acceleration of lining is dominated by an existence of fault and direction of seismic excitation, not normal fault slip. And the incremental strains of lining in critical zone with 1.7 times fault thickness and centered in faults induced by normal fault slip and seismic excitation are larger than ones only by seismic excitation. And the incremental strains in critical zone increase with the increase of normal fault slip magnitude ranging from 0 to 2 mm. And normal fault slip results in a significant reduction of overall tunnel stiffness subjected to an earthquake. These experimental results provide a scientific reference for prevention and control measurement of tunnel damage under earthquake and normal fault slip.展开更多

On the basis of numerous studies, shaking table tests with four different typical boundaries are performed in this study. The tests consider the seismic intensity and seismic wave types. Then, the simulation effects of the four boundary conditions are evaluated from four aspects as follows: the differential rate of peak acceleration, acceleration curve, similarity of Fourier frequency spectra, and uneven soil settlement in rigid containers. Results show that the simulation effects of the boundary conditions are not only affected by the nature of the boundary material but also related to the seismic intensity, types of seismic waves, and filter characteristic of the filling medium in containers. In comparison with the other three types of boundary condition, foamed polyethylene shows the best simulation effect and its effect decreases gradually with the increase in earthquake intensity. Finally, on the basis of existing studies, the evaluation criteria of boundary effect, the principle for the selection of boundary material type and the thickness of boundary material are discussed and summarized, and the corresponding design methods and suggestions are then provided.展开更多

文摘为提高建筑结构的抗震性能,解决传统被动式调谐质量阻尼器(tuned mass damper,TMD)减振频带窄且自身频率难以调节的缺点,基于由形状记忆合金(shape memory alloy,SMA)材料制成的SMA弹簧,提出了一种具有调频能力的新型TMD(shape memory alloy tuned mass damper,SMA-TMD)。通过频率测试试验发现,SMA-TMD的频率会随着通入SMA弹簧电流的增大而升高。通过设计并开展振动台试验,验证SMA-TMD在调频与减振性能方面的可行性与有效性。试验结果表明,与失谐的传统TMD相比,通过调节输入电流而与主体结构再次调谐的SMA-TMD,在控制结构顶层峰值加速度响应方面,能够展现出更高的减振率,减振性能至少可提升21.5%。此外,SMA-TMD的工作行程相比于传统TMD也有显著改善,前后2组试验工况下的最大工作行程分别至少能够降低46.9%、39.2%。这不仅能够节省装置的安装空间,预留更多的建筑面积,还可拓宽装置的应用场景,使其能够布置在一些具有空间局限性的结构中。
