چکیده

روش زمان دوام یک روش دینامیکی فزاینده است که از یک تابع فزاینده شتاب جهت تحلیل سازه استفاده می ­نماید. این روش با توجه به ماهیت دینامیکی آن می­تواند در طیف وسیعی از سازه­ ها، با هر نوع پلان و ارتفاع و هر تعداد درجه آزادی به ­کار رود. در این مطالعه روش زمان دوام جهت ارزیابی رفتار لرزه­ای پل جداسازی­ شده مجهز به انواع مختلف سیستم­ های کنترلی فعال و نیمه­ فعال، به­ کار گرفته شده است. برای بررسی توانمندی این روش در پیش­ بینی پاسخ­ های مدل مورد بررسی، نتایج آن با نتایج حاصل از تحلیل تاریخچه زمانی غیر خطی مجموعه­ ای از شتاب­ نگاشت­ های واقعی که طیف شتاب‌نگاشت‌های انتخاب ‌شده با استفاده از آنالیز موجک در حوزه زمان- فرکانس اصلاح و منطبق بر طیف پاسخ هدف می ­شود، مقایسه گردیده است. نتایج حاصل بیانگر آن است که روش زمان دوام پیش­ بینی مناسبی از رفتار سازه تحت سیستم ­های کنترلی مختلف، در اثر زلزله ­های واقعی ارائه می­ کند.

چکیده [English]

The present study has been performed aiming to appraise the efficiency of endurance time method for evaluation of some vibration control methods in comparison with traditional time history dynamic analysis. Endurance Time method is a dynamic structural analysis that evaluates structural responses under different intensities. In this method structure is subjected to an intensifying predefined acceleration function and different damage indices of structure are evaluated through analysis time. The Endurance Time acceleration function have been generated for different spectra, such as ASCE07 design spectrum, in previous researches of ET group. Due to its inherent dynamic nature, there is no restriction on its application and it can be applied to any structure with any plan or height or any degree of freedoms. Furthermore, it can be used in linear or nonlinear analysis also it can significantly reduce computational demand compared to time history analysis. In this research the Endurance Time method has been applied to an isolated bridge with different control systems such as Active, Semi Active and Passive by using classical linear quadratic regulation (LQR) algorithm and Sliding Mode control (SMC). Two approaches including LQR and pole assignment method have been used for determination of sliding surface as an important parameter in SMC algorithm. The effectiveness and robustness of SMC and conventional LQR control to reduction in displacement response of the structure have been verified by different researchers. Viscous dampers with two different dissipation rate of  and have been considered as two passive control mechanisms. When these bridges are subjected to ground motion with large intensity, the deck displacement becomes excessively large so in this study, different control strategies are used to mitigate this phenomenon. Sliding Mode control with LQR approach has provided the best efficiency in dynamic response mitigation. Herein, the column-isolator-deck system has been idealized as two-degree-of-freedom lumped mass system. To evaluate its seismic behavior, a set of seven suitable records is selected and a wavelet-based procedure has been used to match their spectra with a target spectrum. These records are used for the comparison of the results of Endurance Time analysis with nonlinear time history analysis as a verified method. Results indicate that the Endurance Time method is capable of predicting the seismic behavior of isolated bridge with different control systems within acceptable accuracy. Considerable variance in the analyses result under ground motion records necessitates to apply numerous records to get reliable results while it is possible to attain close estimates using endurance time method. Although ground motion records and endurance time method both have resulted in similar trends for structural displacement response with different control approaches, results are more dispersed for different earthquake records with standard deviation of 1.2 up to 3.36 but this parameter decreases using endurance time method to 0.35 up to 1.58 and this method provides an accurate and time saver tool to evaluate the performance of structural vibration control methods under seismic excitations.
