1 Introduction

Seismic isolation is a technology that decouples a buildingstructure from the damaging earthquake motion It is asimple structural design approach to mitigate or reducepotential earthquake damage In base-isolated structures theseismic protection is obtained by shifting the natural periodof the structure away from the range of the frequenciesfor which the maximum amplification effects of the groundmotion are expected thus the seismic input energy is signif-icantly reduced At the same time the reduction of the highdeformations attained at the base of the structure is possiblethanks to the energy dissipation caused by the damping andthe hysteretic properties of these devices further improvingthe reduction of responses of the structures [1] Since the1995 Hyogoken-nanbu earthquake the number of seismicisolated buildings has been increasing remarkably includingresidential buildings nuclear power plants office buildingshospitals and schools [2 3] Base isolation is also an attractive

retrofitting strategy to improve the seismic performance ofexisting bridges and monumental historic buildings [1 3 4]

It is believed that isolation technology is very effectivein improving the seismic performance of low- and medium-rise buildings but it is not envisaged for high-rise buildingsHowever a lot of base-isolated high-rise buildings have beenbuilt in recent decades Sendai MT building is an 18-storeyoffice building with a height of 849m in Sendai city whichwas the first base-isolated building with a height exceeding60m [5] Thousand Tower a 41-storey building with a heightof 135mwas constructed in 2002 [5] and another super high-rise building in Japan was built in 2006 with a height of1774m and height to width ratio of 57 which is the highestbase-isolated building in the world so far [6]

A substantial amount of work has been done on base-isolated high-rise buildings Since isolators are easily dam-aged by uplift when such high-rise buildings are subjectedto major earthquakes Roussis and Constantinou [7] pro-posed some new devices to avoid damage caused by uplift

of the isolators Hino et al [8] studied the limitation ofthe height to width ratio of the base-isolated buildings bythe Monte Carlo method Ariga et al [9] investigated theresonant behavior of base-isolated high-rise buildings underlong-period ground motions Takewaki [10] investigated therobustness of base-isolated high-rise buildings under code-specified ground motions and concluded that base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings have lower robustness than base-isolatedlow-rise buildings Takewaki and Fujita [11] studied theearthquake input energy to base-isolated high-rise build-ings by both time-domain and frequency-domain methodsYamamoto et al [12] studied the input energy and its rate to abase-isolated building during an earthquake in the frequencydomain Pourzeynali and Zarif [13] optimized the parametersof the base isolation system using genetic algorithms tosimultaneously minimize the displacement of the top storeyand that of the base isolation system Recently Islam et al[14 15] studied the nonlinear performances of base-isolatedmultistorey buildings in both time domain and frequencydomain

However in most of the above-mentioned research thestructure was simplified as a shear-type multi-degree of free-dom (MDOF) model (ie each storey of the superstructurewas simplified as one degree of freedom in the horizontaldirection and the vertical deformation of the columns wasneglected) Such modeling is not suitable when the height towidth ratio (defined by the ratio of the building height to thebuilding width) of the superstructure exceeds 4 as by thenthe flexural effect of the column cannot be neglected In thepresent work the superstructure of a base-isolated high-risebuilding is represented by a finite element (FE) model and ashear-typeMDOFmodel respectively to study the modelingeffect The stochastic response of this building is evaluatedby combining the pseudoexcitation method (PEM) and theequivalent linearization method (ELM) since this combinedapproach does not require a huge storage of data and vastcomputational effort [16]

The main objectives of this paper are (i) to evaluate thedynamic responses of base-isolated high-rise buildings underfully nonstationary earthquake excitations by combining thePEM and ELM and verify the accuracy of the results by theMonte Carlo method (ii) to investigate the influence of theflexure of the beams and extensibility of the columns on theresponses of such structures and (iii) to study the influenceof the higher modes of the superstructure on the responses ofbase-isolated high-rise buildings

21 Governing Equations of Motion for the Superstructure andBase Slab Considering a structure with 119873 DOFs the gov-erning equation ofmotion for the superstructure subjected tohorizontal seismic ground acceleration 119892 in the horizontal 119909

direction is [1]

M119904u119904 + C119904u119904 + K119904u119904 = minusM119904r119904 (119892 + 119887) (1)

where M119904 C119904 and K119904 are the 119873 times 119873 mass damping andstiffness matrices of the superstructure respectively u119904 u119904and u119904 are the acceleration velocity and displacement vectorof order 119873 relative to the base slab 119909119887 is the displacement ofthe base slab relative to the ground displacement 119906119892 and r119904 isthe 119873-dimensional influence coefficient vector

The governing equation of motion of the base slab withrotation and vertical deflection neglected can be expressed as[1]

119898119887 (119887 + 119892) + 119888119887119887 + 1205720119896119906119909119887 + (1 minus 1205720) 119896119906119911

is a hysteretic component which is a function of the timehistory of 119909119887 and 119887 and 119898119887 119888119887 and 119896119906 are the masssupplemental damping and preyielding stiffness of the baseslab respectively One has

where 120589119887 is the supplemental damping ratio of the base slab119896119889 is the postyielding stiffness of the base slab and 119898119905 is thetotal mass of the superstructure and base slab

In (2) 119911 is related to 119909119887 and 119887 through the followingnonlinear differential equation [17]

where 119863119910 is the yield displacement of the isolators

22 Static Correction Procedure In properly designed base-isolated systems the superstructure remains elastic evenwhen subjected to a major earthquake ground motionTherefore the modal superposition method is used to reducethe number of degrees of freedom of the system with the first119899 (119899 ≪ 119873) modes participating in the dynamic computationThis improves the computational efficiency but introducestruncation errors because of neglecting the influence of thehigher modesThe static correction procedure is employed totake into consideration the contribution of the higher modesThe displacement of the superstructure corresponding to thehigher modes is obtained based on the fact that the highfrequency modes react essentially in a static manner whenexcited by low frequencies [18] Assume that the displacementof the superstructure u119904 consists of two parts that is thedynamic part u119889

4 Numerical Study

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

A versatile fully nonstationary earthquake ground-mo-tion model proposed by Conte and Peng [23] is employedhere and this stochastic earthquake model is applied toan actual earthquake N00W (N-S) component of the SanFernando earthquake of February 9 1971 recorded at theOrion Boulevard site The corresponding parameters of thesigma-oscillatory process estimated are given in Table 2 [23]The model parameters are determined by adaptively least-squares fitting the analytical time varying (or evolutionary)

Figure 7 Comparison of the (a) peak RMS storey drifts and (b) absolute storey accelerations of the superstructure given by FE analysis withthose given by the shear-type MDOF model

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

model are each applied to the superstructure with the first 20modes participating in the dynamic computation It showsthat storey drifts and absolute accelerations increase whenextensions of the columns and flexure of the beams aresuitably taken into account in the FE model

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

the first few modes are included in the dynamic computationfrom Figure 8(a) while Figure 8(b) demonstrates that theabsolute accelerations vary significantly with the numberof modes participating in the dynamic computation Sothe influence of the higher modes on the responses of thesuperstructures should not be neglected for the base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings

participating in the dynamic computation is found to have asmall influence on the drift of the base slab but a remarkableinfluence on the absolute acceleration of the base slab

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

of the isolators Hino et al [8] studied the limitation ofthe height to width ratio of the base-isolated buildings bythe Monte Carlo method Ariga et al [9] investigated theresonant behavior of base-isolated high-rise buildings underlong-period ground motions Takewaki [10] investigated therobustness of base-isolated high-rise buildings under code-specified ground motions and concluded that base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings have lower robustness than base-isolatedlow-rise buildings Takewaki and Fujita [11] studied theearthquake input energy to base-isolated high-rise build-ings by both time-domain and frequency-domain methodsYamamoto et al [12] studied the input energy and its rate to abase-isolated building during an earthquake in the frequencydomain Pourzeynali and Zarif [13] optimized the parametersof the base isolation system using genetic algorithms tosimultaneously minimize the displacement of the top storeyand that of the base isolation system Recently Islam et al[14 15] studied the nonlinear performances of base-isolatedmultistorey buildings in both time domain and frequencydomain

However in most of the above-mentioned research thestructure was simplified as a shear-type multi-degree of free-dom (MDOF) model (ie each storey of the superstructurewas simplified as one degree of freedom in the horizontaldirection and the vertical deformation of the columns wasneglected) Such modeling is not suitable when the height towidth ratio (defined by the ratio of the building height to thebuilding width) of the superstructure exceeds 4 as by thenthe flexural effect of the column cannot be neglected In thepresent work the superstructure of a base-isolated high-risebuilding is represented by a finite element (FE) model and ashear-typeMDOFmodel respectively to study the modelingeffect The stochastic response of this building is evaluatedby combining the pseudoexcitation method (PEM) and theequivalent linearization method (ELM) since this combinedapproach does not require a huge storage of data and vastcomputational effort [16]

The main objectives of this paper are (i) to evaluate thedynamic responses of base-isolated high-rise buildings underfully nonstationary earthquake excitations by combining thePEM and ELM and verify the accuracy of the results by theMonte Carlo method (ii) to investigate the influence of theflexure of the beams and extensibility of the columns on theresponses of such structures and (iii) to study the influenceof the higher modes of the superstructure on the responses ofbase-isolated high-rise buildings

21 Governing Equations of Motion for the Superstructure andBase Slab Considering a structure with 119873 DOFs the gov-erning equation ofmotion for the superstructure subjected tohorizontal seismic ground acceleration 119892 in the horizontal 119909

direction is [1]

where M119904 C119904 and K119904 are the 119873 times 119873 mass damping andstiffness matrices of the superstructure respectively u119904 u119904and u119904 are the acceleration velocity and displacement vectorof order 119873 relative to the base slab 119909119887 is the displacement ofthe base slab relative to the ground displacement 119906119892 and r119904 isthe 119873-dimensional influence coefficient vector

The governing equation of motion of the base slab withrotation and vertical deflection neglected can be expressed as[1]

119898119887 (119887 + 119892) + 119888119887119887 + 1205720119896119906119909119887 + (1 minus 1205720) 119896119906119911

where 120589119887 is the supplemental damping ratio of the base slab119896119889 is the postyielding stiffness of the base slab and 119898119905 is thetotal mass of the superstructure and base slab

In (2) 119911 is related to 119909119887 and 119887 through the followingnonlinear differential equation [17]

where 119863119910 is the yield displacement of the isolators

22 Static Correction Procedure In properly designed base-isolated systems the superstructure remains elastic evenwhen subjected to a major earthquake ground motionTherefore the modal superposition method is used to reducethe number of degrees of freedom of the system with the first119899 (119899 ≪ 119873) modes participating in the dynamic computationThis improves the computational efficiency but introducestruncation errors because of neglecting the influence of thehigher modesThe static correction procedure is employed totake into consideration the contribution of the higher modesThe displacement of the superstructure corresponding to thehigher modes is obtained based on the fact that the highfrequency modes react essentially in a static manner whenexcited by low frequencies [18] Assume that the displacementof the superstructure u119904 consists of two parts that is thedynamic part u119889

119904and the static part u119904

3 Nonstationary Stochastic Analysis by PEM

Because of the uncertainty of earthquakes stochastic seismicanalysis is a powerful tool in earthquake engineering and hasexperienced extensive development in recent decades Jangid[21] studied the performance of the isolated buildings andbridges and the stochastic responses of the isolated structuressubjected to uniformly modulated nonstationary earthquakeexcitations were obtained by solving Lyapunov equation Asthe stochastic response of a nonlinear system is stronglyaffected by the nonstationary behaviour of an earthquake[22] the fully nonstationary earthquake model proposed byConte and Peng [23] is adopted in this paper

4 Numerical Study

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

A versatile fully nonstationary earthquake ground-mo-tion model proposed by Conte and Peng [23] is employedhere and this stochastic earthquake model is applied toan actual earthquake N00W (N-S) component of the SanFernando earthquake of February 9 1971 recorded at theOrion Boulevard site The corresponding parameters of thesigma-oscillatory process estimated are given in Table 2 [23]The model parameters are determined by adaptively least-squares fitting the analytical time varying (or evolutionary)

Figure 7 Comparison of the (a) peak RMS storey drifts and (b) absolute storey accelerations of the superstructure given by FE analysis withthose given by the shear-type MDOF model

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

the first few modes are included in the dynamic computationfrom Figure 8(a) while Figure 8(b) demonstrates that theabsolute accelerations vary significantly with the numberof modes participating in the dynamic computation Sothe influence of the higher modes on the responses of thesuperstructures should not be neglected for the base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings

participating in the dynamic computation is found to have asmall influence on the drift of the base slab but a remarkableinfluence on the absolute acceleration of the base slab

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

3 Nonstationary Stochastic Analysis by PEM

Because of the uncertainty of earthquakes stochastic seismicanalysis is a powerful tool in earthquake engineering and hasexperienced extensive development in recent decades Jangid[21] studied the performance of the isolated buildings andbridges and the stochastic responses of the isolated structuressubjected to uniformly modulated nonstationary earthquakeexcitations were obtained by solving Lyapunov equation Asthe stochastic response of a nonlinear system is stronglyaffected by the nonstationary behaviour of an earthquake[22] the fully nonstationary earthquake model proposed byConte and Peng [23] is adopted in this paper

31 Fully Nonstationary Earthquake Excitation Model Theearthquake excitation model is considered a sigma-oscillato-ry process [23] which is a sum of 119901 zero-mean independentuniformly modulated Gaussian processes Each uniformlymodulated process consists of the product of a deterministictime modulating function 119860119896(119905) and a stationary Gaussianprocess 119884119896(119905) Thus the earthquake ground motion 119892(119905) isdefined as [23]

in (13) and (19) given an initial value at 119905 = 0

Step 2 Compute the pseudoresponse v(120596119895 119905119896) by Runge-Kutta method

4 Numerical Study

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

A versatile fully nonstationary earthquake ground-mo-tion model proposed by Conte and Peng [23] is employedhere and this stochastic earthquake model is applied toan actual earthquake N00W (N-S) component of the SanFernando earthquake of February 9 1971 recorded at theOrion Boulevard site The corresponding parameters of thesigma-oscillatory process estimated are given in Table 2 [23]The model parameters are determined by adaptively least-squares fitting the analytical time varying (or evolutionary)

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

the first few modes are included in the dynamic computationfrom Figure 8(a) while Figure 8(b) demonstrates that theabsolute accelerations vary significantly with the numberof modes participating in the dynamic computation Sothe influence of the higher modes on the responses of thesuperstructures should not be neglected for the base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

Figure 7 Comparison of the (a) peak RMS storey drifts and (b) absolute storey accelerations of the superstructure given by FE analysis withthose given by the shear-type MDOF model

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

Figure 7 illustrates the influence of flexure of the super-structure on the peak RMS storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the storeys The FE model and shear-type MDOF

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

the first few modes are included in the dynamic computationfrom Figure 8(a) while Figure 8(b) demonstrates that theabsolute accelerations vary significantly with the numberof modes participating in the dynamic computation Sothe influence of the higher modes on the responses of thesuperstructures should not be neglected for the base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings

participating in the dynamic computation is found to have asmall influence on the drift of the base slab but a remarkableinfluence on the absolute acceleration of the base slab

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

Step 2 Compute the pseudoresponse v(120596119895 119905119896) by Runge-Kutta method

The corresponding nonstationary random vibrationresponse analysis is transformed into an ordinary directdynamic analysisThus k(120596119895 119905119896) can be evaluated at a series ofequally spaced frequency points 120596119895 = 119895Δ120596 (119895 = 1 2 119873120596)at 119905119896 by Runge-Kutta method where Δ120596 is the frequency stepand 119873120596 is the total number of frequency steps

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

A versatile fully nonstationary earthquake ground-mo-tion model proposed by Conte and Peng [23] is employedhere and this stochastic earthquake model is applied toan actual earthquake N00W (N-S) component of the SanFernando earthquake of February 9 1971 recorded at theOrion Boulevard site The corresponding parameters of thesigma-oscillatory process estimated are given in Table 2 [23]The model parameters are determined by adaptively least-squares fitting the analytical time varying (or evolutionary)

Figure 7 Comparison of the (a) peak RMS storey drifts and (b) absolute storey accelerations of the superstructure given by FE analysis withthose given by the shear-type MDOF model

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

Figure 7 illustrates the influence of flexure of the super-structure on the peak RMS storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the storeys The FE model and shear-type MDOF

model are each applied to the superstructure with the first 20modes participating in the dynamic computation It showsthat storey drifts and absolute accelerations increase whenextensions of the columns and flexure of the beams aresuitably taken into account in the FE model

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

the first few modes are included in the dynamic computationfrom Figure 8(a) while Figure 8(b) demonstrates that theabsolute accelerations vary significantly with the numberof modes participating in the dynamic computation Sothe influence of the higher modes on the responses of thesuperstructures should not be neglected for the base-isolatedhigh-rise buildings

participating in the dynamic computation is found to have asmall influence on the drift of the base slab but a remarkableinfluence on the absolute acceleration of the base slab

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40

4 Numerical Study

In the base-isolated frame structure shown in Figure 2 eachof the 20 storeys is 36m in height so the total height ofthe frame structure is 72m with 18m in width and 15min depth in the 119909 and 119911 directions respectively Thus itsheight to width ratios are 4 and 48 in the 119909 and 119911 directionsrespectively The reinforced concrete beams are all identicalwith width of 06m and depth of 08m The reinforcedconcrete columns are all of square cross-sections with sidelength 119889 The column properties that is their side length 119889extensional rigidities 119864119860 and flexural rigidities 119864119868 for thein-plane behavior are in three different values dependingupon the storey number as shown in Table 1 The total massof each storey is distributed uniformly as a lumped mass ateach of its nodes as also shown in Table 1 The dampingratios of the superstructure and isolation slab are 003 and010 respectively the fundamental period of the base-fixedsuperstructure is 119879119904 = 166 s and the fundamental period ofthe base-isolated system is 119879119889 = 350 s Other values usedare the post- to preyielding stiffness ratio 1205720 = 01 and theyielding displacement 119863119910 = 001m

A versatile fully nonstationary earthquake ground-mo-tion model proposed by Conte and Peng [23] is employedhere and this stochastic earthquake model is applied toan actual earthquake N00W (N-S) component of the SanFernando earthquake of February 9 1971 recorded at theOrion Boulevard site The corresponding parameters of thesigma-oscillatory process estimated are given in Table 2 [23]The model parameters are determined by adaptively least-squares fitting the analytical time varying (or evolutionary)

Figure 7 Comparison of the (a) peak RMS storey drifts and (b) absolute storey accelerations of the superstructure given by FE analysis withthose given by the shear-type MDOF model

The PSD function of the earthquake excitation is shown inFigure 3 Obviously this earthquake model can capture thetime variation of both the intensity and the frequency contentof the earthquake record at the target

Figure 4 compares the root mean square (RMS) storeydrifts of the isolated structure evaluated by PEM with thosegiven byMonte Carlo simulation (500 samples are used)Therelationship between the restoring force and the drift of theisolators is described by the Bouc-Wenmodel so each sampleofMonteCarlo simulation is a nonlinear time history analysisof the isolated system Clearly both the drift of the base slaband the storey drifts of the superstructure agree well with thetwo sets of results so that the accuracy of the results by thePEM is demonstrated

The peak RMS of the storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the base-fixed structure and those of the base-isolated one are shown in Figure 5 It demonstrates that theresponses decrease significantly after isolation so they revealthat the isolation technology can still protect the structuresfromdamage during earthquakes even for high-rise buildingswith a proper design of the isolators employed

The improvement of accuracy of the storey drifts by thestatic correction procedure is given by Figure 6 It shows thatthe accuracy of the response is improved with employment ofthis method

Figure 7 illustrates the influence of flexure of the super-structure on the peak RMS storey drifts and absolute accel-erations of the storeys The FE model and shear-type MDOF

Figure 8 shows the influence of the number of the modesparticipating in the computation of the response of thesuperstructureThe results are obtainedwith 119899 = 3 10 and 40modes respectively They reveal that the storey drifts of thesuperstructure will be substantially underestimated if only

5 Conclusions

The stochastic responses of a base-isolated high-rise buildingsubjected to fully nonstationary ground excitations are ana-lyzed by combining the PEM and the ELM The conclusionscan be drawn as follows

(1) The results obtained by the PEM agree well withthose obtained by the Monte Carlo method and theaccuracy of the results of such hysteretic systemsevaluated by the PEM is verified

(2) The static correction procedure is employed for con-sidering the contributions of the higher modes ofthe structure which causes almost no increase of thecomputational effort

(3) An FE model and a shear-type MDOF model areimplemented for the superstructure of such high-rise buildings It is found that the storey drifts andabsolute accelerations are underestimated if the flex-ural deformation of the beam components and theaxial deformations of the column components areneglected in the shear-type MDOF model used Thepeak RMS storey drifts of the superstructure couldbe underestimated by about 60 and the peak RMSabsolute accelerations of the superstructure could beunderestimated by about 7

(4) The storey drifts and the absolute accelerations couldbe underestimated if the higher modes of the super-structure are neglected in the FE model used and thenumber of the modes participating in the dynamiccomputation has a small influence on the responseof the base slab but a remarkable influence on itsabsolute acceleration and sometimes the absoluteacceleration of base slab could be overestimated byabout 40
