Numerical Simulation on Aftershock Fragility of Low-Ductility RC Frames under Different Mainshock-Induced Damage Conditions
Buildings(2024)
摘要
Aftershocks typically occur multiple times following major earthquakes, potentially inflicting enhanced damage. It is crucial to quantify the impact of aftershocks on the seismic performance of low-ductility reinforced concrete (RC) frames with different mainshock-induced damage states. For this purpose, this study investigated the aftershock fragility of low-ductility RC frames with different damage states induced by mainshocks via the case study of a six-story RC frame without a seismic design. The models of the low-ductility RC frames with different damage states were established via OpenSees software 2.5.0. Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) was carried out to establish damage states induced by a mainshock. Then sixty-five real aftershocks were inputted to analyze the structures with different main-induced damage states. Aftershock fragility curves of low-ductility RC frame structures with different damage states were obtained. The results show that the exceedance probability of the low-ductility RC frame with mainshock-induced damage is higher than that of the intact low-ductility structure, corresponding to each limit state. The severity of the mainshock-induced damage directly amplifies the demand for a low-ductility RC frame in the subsequent aftershocks. As the mainshock-induced damage increases, the exceedance probability of the low-ductility RC frame undergoing more severe damage under aftershocks significantly increases.
