Ozturk, Kasif Furkan; Cakir, Tufan; Araz, Onur
The present study deals with evaluation of the effects of different ground motions, backfill-structure interaction (BSI) and soil-structure interaction (SSI) on dynamic response of a box culvert wing wall. In obtaining numerical results, five different earthquake records with different frequency contents, five different backfill types and four different subsoil types are taken into account. Firstly, a finite element model (FEM) and three analytical models are proposed for analysis of the wing wall-backfill system under fixed-base case, and these fixed-base models are compared with each other through both modal analysis and displacement time-history analysis under the assumption of linear-elasticity. After validating the ability of the FEM approach, by extending the fixed-base FEM to take account of elastoplastic behavior of soil and SSI, a three dimensional (3-D) model has been described, and 3-D nonlinear analyses have been carried out in time domain. The numerical results show that the seismic response of the wing walls are affected remarkably by the SSI, BSI and frequency content of the earthquake.

This paper deals with the optimization of the tuned mass damper (TMD) with different objective functions for high-rise building under earthquake motions considering soil–structure interaction (SSI). A study is conducted to search for the TMD that outperforms five objective functions (i.e., OF-1–OF-5) containing combinations of the structural responses and foundation responses. The main goal of the present study is to evaluate and compare the control performance of these five objective functions. The optimum parameters of TMD are obtained by particle swarm algorithm (PSA) to minimize the acceleration transfer function. To determine the dynamic response of a 40-story building under the influence of SSI, six different foundation soil conditions and eight different earthquake records are considered. The results show that the SSI effects on the dynamic response of the high-rise building resting on relatively soft soil types such as SD and SE are of critical importance. It is shown that the effectiveness of the optimum TMD designed by OF-1 is better than the others in suppressing the peak response values for all soil types. After OF-1, the best performances are obtained for OF-3 and OF-5 which yield approximately the same effectiveness. It is also found that different earthquake records, soil types and objective functions are very effective on the effectiveness of TMD.

Araz, Onur; Kahya, Volkan
The effectiveness of the series tuned mass dampers (STMDs) in reducing the dynamic vibrations of the structures under the ground motion is investigated, and their optimum parameters are obtained based on the simulated annealing (SA) optimization. The STMD is one of the most well-known passive control devices which consists of two TMD units arranged in series. However, only a few studies are available on the control performance and optimum parameters of the STMDs for structural systems subjected to ground motion. Thus, the goal of this study is to carry out a thorough optimization analysis based on the SA algorithm for the structures equipped with an STMD under the effect of ground motion. The objective function is selected as the reduction of the displacement response of the structure. It is proved that the optimum STMD has better effectiveness than the optimum TMD in suppressing the maximum story displacement of the structure. Further, the effect of the frequency shift on the effectiveness of the optimally designed STMD is investigated.
