A Comparison between Different Editions of API650 Seismic Provisions for Cylindrical Steel Storage Tanks Considering the Fragility Curves
Seismic safety of liquid storage tanks is of considerable importance due to its application in different industries. In Iran, most of these storage tanks are designed based on API650 code provisions. Despite designing tanks according to API standard, the lesson learned from previous earthquakes, shows different kind of damage occurring on them. This study is an investigation on evaluating diffe...
متن کاملA methodology for Determining the Seismic Vulnerability of Old Concrete Highway Bridges by Using Fragility Curves
Past earthquakes have demonstrated that old RC bridges may be seismically vulnerable. Bridge responses during the last decades illustrated the necessity of the seismic assessment of bridges especially those which were designed with old codes. In this research an existing concrete bridge representative of the most common bridges in the highway system in Iran are studied. Push over and nonlinear ...
متن کاملFragility Curves for Reinforced Concrete Frames with Lap-Spliced Columns
Placing column lap-splice in the locations of possible nonlinear deformation may adversely affect the structures response to strong ground motions. Localization of damage in splice zone may change the structural response and prevent the load redistribution and development of a uniform pattern of nonlinear excursions among the various members. Validated by existing laboratory experiments, this s...
متن کاملFRAGILITY CURVES FOR STRUCTURES EQUIPPED WITH OPTIMAL SATMDs
In this paper, a procedure has been presented to develop fragility curves of structures equipped with optimal variable damping or stiffness semi-active tuned mass dampers (SATMDs). To determine proper variable damping or stiffness of semi-active devices in each time step, instantaneous optimal control algorithm with clipped control concept has been used. Optimal SATMDs have been designed based ...
متن کاملFragility Curves Derivation for a Pile-Supported Wharf
This study aims to develop seismic fragility curves for a typical pile-supported wharf. Fragility curve is one of the popular tools in seismic performance evaluation of a structure. The software FLAC2D was used to simulate the seismic performance of the wharf structure. Using eight time history records, occurred in past, as seismic loading, incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) was applied for sei...
