Introduction In recent decades, the self-centering (SC) structures have attracted a lot of attention from the earthquake engineering community. After strong ground shaking, they undergo almost no residual deformation and can resume normal service with little or no rehabilitation. Several types of SC structural systems have been proposed, such as SC wall structures, SC frame structures, and SC braced frame struc- tures. As a typical SC structure, the SC wall is mainly com- posed of three parts: wall, posttensioned (PT) tendons, and dampers. It gains the self-centering ability usually by making use of the gap-opening behavior of the horizontal connections at the base or along the height of the wall [1]. Extensive studies have been conducted on the dynamic behavior or seismic performance of the SC wall by theo- retical, numerical, and experimental methodologies. Two types of analysis models, i.e., the rigid body model and finite element (FE) model, have been proposed in the theoretical or numerical investigations. For the former one, the SC wall is treated as a rigid body, the PT tendon is represented by an elastic spring, and the dampers are simulated by elastoplastic springs [2]. Using this model as well as referring to the work concerning rocking response analysis of the rigid block under ground motions [3–7], Hu et al. [8] investigated rocking responses of the SC wall under seismic excitations. Differently, for the FE model, the wall is simulated by fiber beam-column elements [9, 10] or diagonal struts [11, 12], while the rocking behavior at the base is simulated by a group of contact springs. In addition to the above studies, some scholars investigated experimentally or numerically the seismic performance of the SC precast concrete walls [13–22] and SC confined masonry walls [11, 12]. e re- search outcomes generally demonstrate that the SC wall exhibits minor damage with little or no residual displace- ments under cyclic loading or seismic excitations. Moreover, the addition of dampers can substantially enhance the en- ergy dissipation capacity of the SC wall. Recently, the framed self-centering wall (FSCW) struc- ture has emerged by combining the SC wall with the frame.

1 Introduction

In recent decades the self-centering (SC) structures haveattracted a lot of attention from the earthquake engineeringcommunity After strong ground shaking they undergoalmost no residual deformation and can resume normalservice with little or no rehabilitation Several types of SCstructural systems have been proposed such as SC wallstructures SC frame structures and SC braced frame struc-tures As a typical SC structure the SC wall is mainly com-posed of three parts wall posttensioned (PT) tendons anddampers It gains the self-centering ability usually by makinguse of the gap-opening behavior of the horizontal connectionsat the base or along the height of the wall [1]

Extensive studies have been conducted on the dynamicbehavior or seismic performance of the SC wall by theo-retical numerical and experimental methodologies Twotypes of analysis models ie the rigid body model and finiteelement (FE) model have been proposed in the theoreticalor numerical investigations For the former one the SC wallis treated as a rigid body the PT tendon is represented by anelastic spring and the dampers are simulated by elastoplastic

springs [2] Using this model as well as referring to the workconcerning rocking response analysis of the rigid blockunder ground motions [3ndash7] Hu et al [8] investigatedrocking responses of the SC wall under seismic excitationsDifferently for the FE model the wall is simulated by fiberbeam-column elements [9 10] or diagonal struts [11 12]while the rocking behavior at the base is simulated by agroup of contact springs In addition to the above studiessome scholars investigated experimentally or numericallythe seismic performance of the SC precast concrete walls[13ndash22] and SC confined masonry walls [11 12] -e re-search outcomes generally demonstrate that the SC wallexhibits minor damage with little or no residual displace-ments under cyclic loading or seismic excitations Moreoverthe addition of dampers can substantially enhance the en-ergy dissipation capacity of the SC wall

Recently the framed self-centering wall (FSCW) struc-ture has emerged by combining the SC wall with the frameTwo types of FSCW structures are mainly concernedie one adopting the rocking wall [23ndash26] and the otherone adopting the stepping wall [27ndash29] as shown in Figure 1For the latter one only a few studies have been carried out on

its seismic performance mainly through the numericalanalysis method For example Ajrab et al [27] performednonlinear time-history analyses of the FSCW structureequipped with additional PT tendons and dampers -e re-sults show that the interstory drifts of the FSCW structure aremore uniform than those of the framed fixed-based wallstructure In addition Zibaei and Mokari [28] conducted acomparative study on seismic performance of RC frames RCframes with shear wall and RC frames with controlledrocking wall by means of pushover analysis -e results showthat for the RC frames with rocking wall system not onlyplastic hinge formation and interstory drifts are well dis-tributed but also energy dissipation and displacement duc-tility are increased Besides Hu et al [29] compared seismicresponses of the RC frame before and after retrofitted by SCwalls through nonlinear time-history analysis It shows thatthe SC wall can effectively reduce seismic responses of theoriginal RC frame structure while incurring little or no re-sidual deformation More recently Grigorian et al [30]proposed a methodology for developing earthquake-resilientstructures by introducing a rocking core-moment frame asthe lateral resisting component of a gravity-resisting structurethat is detailed to recenter while sustaining large lateraldeformations

From the above literature review it can be seen that thelimited studies regarding the FSCW structure usually in-volve nonlinear FE analysis It may be time-consumingespecially in case of analyzing the complex structure Fur-thermore there are still uncertainties in establishing the FEmodel for example how to determine the contact param-eters to realistically replicate the gap-opening behavior of theconnections In view of these issues this paper is mainlyaimed to develop a simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure under lateral loading After validated by the FEanalysis method this model is further employed to establishmotion equations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations By means of numerical simulation seismic re-sponses of the FSCW structure are obtained Finally acomprehensive parametric study is carried out to investigatethe influences of a variety of design parameters whichmainly include those concerning the PT tendon thedampers and the frame on seismic responses of the FSCWstructure

2 Simplified Analysis Model ofFSCW Structures

21GeneralAnalysisModel As illustrated in Figure 2(a) theFSCW structure mainly comprises three parts the SC wallthe frame and the linking beam In this study only themoment frame is considered It is assumed that these threecomponents are lumped in the plane along the loadingdirection as shown in Figure 2(b) Furthermore the PTtendon is supposed to be installed vertically along the centerline of the SC wall and the dampers are placed at two ends ofthe bottom of the wall

Since the frame can be represented as a multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) system a general analysis model of theFSCW structure can thus be formed as seen inFigures 2(c)ndash2(d) Depending on whether the constraintsbetween the linking beam and the SC wall are considered ornot the analysis model can be categorized into two typesie the pin-jointed system (Figure 2(c)) and the rigid-jointedsystem (Figure 2(d)) In the figures h b and l represent theheight the width and the diagonal length of the SC wallrespectively with α being the angle between the wall diagonaland height In addition kj and hj are the stiffness and theheight relative to the ground of the jth (j 1 n) storey ofthe frame respectively where n is the number of storeys

22 Simplified Analysis Model

221 Formulation of the Simplified Model According to thedisplacement-based seismic design philosophy [31 32] theMDOF system can be equivalent as a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system as shown in Figure 3 where mjFj and δj denote the mass horizontal force and lateraldisplacement of the jth storey of the MDOF system -eparameters concerning the equivalent SDOF system aredetermined as follows

(1c)

where heq meq and δeq represent the equivalent heightequivalent mass and equivalent displacement of the SDOFsystem respectively

By converting the MDOF system into a SDOF system(Figure 3) the general analysis model of the FSCW structure(Figures 2(c) and 2(d)) can be further simplified as shown inFigure 4 Furthermore considering that the lateral dis-placement curve of the frame is approximately linear alongthe height [27ndash29] we can have

δj θhj j 1 2 n (2)

where θ represents the storey drift which is constant alongthe height of the frame -ereby for the nth storey it has

δn θhn (3)

Substituting equations (2) and (3) in equations (1a)ndash(1c)can yield

222 Nonlinear Analysis Parameters of the Frame Toconduct nonlinear analysis of the FSCW structure underlateral loading the nonlinear behavior of the frame needs tobe explicitly taken into account For simplification purposethe hysteresis model of the frame is assumed to be bilinear asshown in Figure 5 where kf fyf and η represents the elasticstiffness the yield force and the postyield stiffness coefficientof the frame Actually the bilinear hysteresis is usuallyadopted to represent the general structural behavior espe-cially for the SDOF system irrespective of the materialsinvolved

In order to obtain nonlinear parameters of the frame thefollowing procedures can be implemented (1) Conductpushover analysis of the frame and obtain the capacity curveie the base shear vs top displacement curve as shown inFigure 6(a) Although various lateral load patterns such as theinverted triangular load uniform load or concentrated loadcan be considered in pushover analysis the one that makesthe lateral displacement approximately linear along the heightis recommended here (2) Convert the capacity curve into theforce vs displacement curve corresponding to the equivalentSDOF system as shown in Figure 6(b) by utilizing equation(4c) as well as the assumption that the frame and theequivalent system have the same base shear (3) Extract thevalues of kf fyf and η directly from the curve approximately bythe plotting method as seen in Figure 6(b)

3 Verification of the Proposed Analysis Model

31Details of theAnalyzedFSCWStructure A representativesix-storey concrete FSCW structure is analyzed in thissection Figure 7 gives the geometry dimensions and re-inforcement details of the FSCW structure In addition thethickness of the SC wall is 240mm -e compressivestrength and elastic modulus of the concrete are 30MPa and30times104MPa respectively -e yield strength and elasticmodulus of the longitudinal rebars in the frame and thelinking beams are 400MPa and 2times105MPa respectively-e PT tendon with an effective radius of 108mm isarranged along the center line of the wall -e elasticmodulus of the tendon and its initial stress are 2times105MPaand 1395MPa respectively For the dampers the yield forceand elastic stiffness are set to be 100 kN and 45 kNmmrespectively

32 FEModeling of the FSCW Structure In this section twodifferent FE models of the FSCW structure are established inthe software ABAQUS [33] one involves the original FSCWstructure and another one uses the proposed simplifiedanalysis model

321 General FE Model Figure 8(a) shows the overall FEmodel of the original FSCW structure -e SC wall ismodeled by the shell element S4R and its material is set to be

elastic since the wall usually exhibits minor or no damageduring lateral loading -e foundation is simulated by thesolid element C3D8R and its material is also set to be elasticNote that the uplift of the foundation may occur due to thecompliance effects of the underlying material and have agreat impact on the rocking behavior of the SC wallhowever it is beyond the scope of this study and thusneglected here -e interaction between the SC wall and thefoundation is considered by defining the surface-to-surfacecontact as shown in Figure 8(b) -e dampers are simulatedby axial connectors and the elastic-perfectly plastic con-stitutive relation is adopted Besides the PT tendon issimulated by the beam element B31 with one end tied to thetop of the wall and another one anchored directly to thefoundation and its material is also set to be elastic

-e frame and the linking beams are modeled using thebeam element B31 -e concrete constitutive relation shownin Figure 8(c) which ignores its tensile strength [34] is usedhere By way of the user material subroutine [33] the aboveconcrete constitutive relation is programmed into ABAQUS-e longitudinal rebars are simulated by adding the keywordlowastrebar in the input file and the elastic-perfectly plasticconstitutive relation is adopted

It is worth noting that the connection between the SCwall and the linking beam needs to be modeled properlyaccording to the type of the FSCW structure For the rigid-jointed system the SC wall and the linking beams are di-rectly merged where they intersect for the pin-jointedsystem the above merging operation is first conductedand then the keyword lowastrelease is used to release the con-straints between the SC wall and the linking beams

322 Simplified FE Model Figure 9 gives the simplified FEmodel of the FSCW structure where the frame is repre-sented by an equivalent SDOF system and simulated by atranslator connector To obtain nonlinear analysis param-eters of the frame pushover analysis of the frame is firstcarried out and the resulted capacity curve is shown inFigure 10 Following the procedure stated in Section 222the parameters of the SDOF system can be obtained asfollows meq 473times104 kg heq 128m kf 4375 kNmfyf 400 kN and η 01

33 Comparison between the Analysis Results Utilizing theabove two FE models pushover analyses of the FSCWstructure are conducted respectively To save space onlypin-jointed connection between the linking beam and the SC

wall is considered here In addition it is supposed that theconcentrated force is applied laterally on the top of the SCwall

Figure 11 shows the capacity curves obtained using thetwo models It can be seen that on the whole the two curvesare close especially during the elastic stage Beyond theelastic stage although obvious difference can be observedthe maximum errors between the base shears obtained fromthe two models are less than 11 -e errors may mainlyoriginate from the inaccuracy of the parameters related tothe equivalent SDOF system By adjusting these parametersbetter matches between the results obtained from the twomodels can be available -erefore it can be concluded tosome extent that the proposed simplified analysis model ofthe FSCW structure is capable of approximately capturingthe nonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the appealing advantage of simplicity

4 Dynamic Response Analysis of theFSCW Structure

In this section the above simplified analysis model is furtherutilized to establish motion equations of the FSCW structure

under seismic excitations Without loss of generality onlythe pin-jointed system shown in Figure 4(a) is taken intoaccount Based on the motion equations the numericalsimulation model is constructed using the MATLABSimulink software and the dynamic responses are obtained

41 Motion Equations of the FSCWStructure -e SC wall ofthe FSCW structure is treated as a rigid body which is widelyused in the previous relevant studies and has been verified bysome experiments (eg among others [21 22]) In additionit is supposed that the SC wall only rotates about points O orOprime without sliding under seismic excitations as shown inFigures 12(a) and 13(a) In the two figures θ is the rotationangle of the SC wall which is assumed to be positive for thewall rotating about point O and negative in case of rotatingabout Oprime Besides the damping associated with the system isneglected for simplification

411 Rotating about Oprime When the SC wall rotates aboutpoint Oprime as shown in Figure 12(a) the following momentequilibrium equation can be established according to theDrsquoAlembert principle

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

its seismic performance mainly through the numericalanalysis method For example Ajrab et al [27] performednonlinear time-history analyses of the FSCW structureequipped with additional PT tendons and dampers -e re-sults show that the interstory drifts of the FSCW structure aremore uniform than those of the framed fixed-based wallstructure In addition Zibaei and Mokari [28] conducted acomparative study on seismic performance of RC frames RCframes with shear wall and RC frames with controlledrocking wall by means of pushover analysis -e results showthat for the RC frames with rocking wall system not onlyplastic hinge formation and interstory drifts are well dis-tributed but also energy dissipation and displacement duc-tility are increased Besides Hu et al [29] compared seismicresponses of the RC frame before and after retrofitted by SCwalls through nonlinear time-history analysis It shows thatthe SC wall can effectively reduce seismic responses of theoriginal RC frame structure while incurring little or no re-sidual deformation More recently Grigorian et al [30]proposed a methodology for developing earthquake-resilientstructures by introducing a rocking core-moment frame asthe lateral resisting component of a gravity-resisting structurethat is detailed to recenter while sustaining large lateraldeformations

From the above literature review it can be seen that thelimited studies regarding the FSCW structure usually in-volve nonlinear FE analysis It may be time-consumingespecially in case of analyzing the complex structure Fur-thermore there are still uncertainties in establishing the FEmodel for example how to determine the contact param-eters to realistically replicate the gap-opening behavior of theconnections In view of these issues this paper is mainlyaimed to develop a simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure under lateral loading After validated by the FEanalysis method this model is further employed to establishmotion equations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations By means of numerical simulation seismic re-sponses of the FSCW structure are obtained Finally acomprehensive parametric study is carried out to investigatethe influences of a variety of design parameters whichmainly include those concerning the PT tendon thedampers and the frame on seismic responses of the FSCWstructure

2 Simplified Analysis Model ofFSCW Structures

21GeneralAnalysisModel As illustrated in Figure 2(a) theFSCW structure mainly comprises three parts the SC wallthe frame and the linking beam In this study only themoment frame is considered It is assumed that these threecomponents are lumped in the plane along the loadingdirection as shown in Figure 2(b) Furthermore the PTtendon is supposed to be installed vertically along the centerline of the SC wall and the dampers are placed at two ends ofthe bottom of the wall

Since the frame can be represented as a multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) system a general analysis model of theFSCW structure can thus be formed as seen inFigures 2(c)ndash2(d) Depending on whether the constraintsbetween the linking beam and the SC wall are considered ornot the analysis model can be categorized into two typesie the pin-jointed system (Figure 2(c)) and the rigid-jointedsystem (Figure 2(d)) In the figures h b and l represent theheight the width and the diagonal length of the SC wallrespectively with α being the angle between the wall diagonaland height In addition kj and hj are the stiffness and theheight relative to the ground of the jth (j 1 n) storey ofthe frame respectively where n is the number of storeys

22 Simplified Analysis Model

221 Formulation of the Simplified Model According to thedisplacement-based seismic design philosophy [31 32] theMDOF system can be equivalent as a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system as shown in Figure 3 where mjFj and δj denote the mass horizontal force and lateraldisplacement of the jth storey of the MDOF system -eparameters concerning the equivalent SDOF system aredetermined as follows

where heq meq and δeq represent the equivalent heightequivalent mass and equivalent displacement of the SDOFsystem respectively

By converting the MDOF system into a SDOF system(Figure 3) the general analysis model of the FSCW structure(Figures 2(c) and 2(d)) can be further simplified as shown inFigure 4 Furthermore considering that the lateral dis-placement curve of the frame is approximately linear alongthe height [27ndash29] we can have

where θ represents the storey drift which is constant alongthe height of the frame -ereby for the nth storey it has

222 Nonlinear Analysis Parameters of the Frame Toconduct nonlinear analysis of the FSCW structure underlateral loading the nonlinear behavior of the frame needs tobe explicitly taken into account For simplification purposethe hysteresis model of the frame is assumed to be bilinear asshown in Figure 5 where kf fyf and η represents the elasticstiffness the yield force and the postyield stiffness coefficientof the frame Actually the bilinear hysteresis is usuallyadopted to represent the general structural behavior espe-cially for the SDOF system irrespective of the materialsinvolved

In order to obtain nonlinear parameters of the frame thefollowing procedures can be implemented (1) Conductpushover analysis of the frame and obtain the capacity curveie the base shear vs top displacement curve as shown inFigure 6(a) Although various lateral load patterns such as theinverted triangular load uniform load or concentrated loadcan be considered in pushover analysis the one that makesthe lateral displacement approximately linear along the heightis recommended here (2) Convert the capacity curve into theforce vs displacement curve corresponding to the equivalentSDOF system as shown in Figure 6(b) by utilizing equation(4c) as well as the assumption that the frame and theequivalent system have the same base shear (3) Extract thevalues of kf fyf and η directly from the curve approximately bythe plotting method as seen in Figure 6(b)

3 Verification of the Proposed Analysis Model

31Details of theAnalyzedFSCWStructure A representativesix-storey concrete FSCW structure is analyzed in thissection Figure 7 gives the geometry dimensions and re-inforcement details of the FSCW structure In addition thethickness of the SC wall is 240mm -e compressivestrength and elastic modulus of the concrete are 30MPa and30times104MPa respectively -e yield strength and elasticmodulus of the longitudinal rebars in the frame and thelinking beams are 400MPa and 2times105MPa respectively-e PT tendon with an effective radius of 108mm isarranged along the center line of the wall -e elasticmodulus of the tendon and its initial stress are 2times105MPaand 1395MPa respectively For the dampers the yield forceand elastic stiffness are set to be 100 kN and 45 kNmmrespectively

32 FEModeling of the FSCW Structure In this section twodifferent FE models of the FSCW structure are established inthe software ABAQUS [33] one involves the original FSCWstructure and another one uses the proposed simplifiedanalysis model

321 General FE Model Figure 8(a) shows the overall FEmodel of the original FSCW structure -e SC wall ismodeled by the shell element S4R and its material is set to be

elastic since the wall usually exhibits minor or no damageduring lateral loading -e foundation is simulated by thesolid element C3D8R and its material is also set to be elasticNote that the uplift of the foundation may occur due to thecompliance effects of the underlying material and have agreat impact on the rocking behavior of the SC wallhowever it is beyond the scope of this study and thusneglected here -e interaction between the SC wall and thefoundation is considered by defining the surface-to-surfacecontact as shown in Figure 8(b) -e dampers are simulatedby axial connectors and the elastic-perfectly plastic con-stitutive relation is adopted Besides the PT tendon issimulated by the beam element B31 with one end tied to thetop of the wall and another one anchored directly to thefoundation and its material is also set to be elastic

-e frame and the linking beams are modeled using thebeam element B31 -e concrete constitutive relation shownin Figure 8(c) which ignores its tensile strength [34] is usedhere By way of the user material subroutine [33] the aboveconcrete constitutive relation is programmed into ABAQUS-e longitudinal rebars are simulated by adding the keywordlowastrebar in the input file and the elastic-perfectly plasticconstitutive relation is adopted

It is worth noting that the connection between the SCwall and the linking beam needs to be modeled properlyaccording to the type of the FSCW structure For the rigid-jointed system the SC wall and the linking beams are di-rectly merged where they intersect for the pin-jointedsystem the above merging operation is first conductedand then the keyword lowastrelease is used to release the con-straints between the SC wall and the linking beams

322 Simplified FE Model Figure 9 gives the simplified FEmodel of the FSCW structure where the frame is repre-sented by an equivalent SDOF system and simulated by atranslator connector To obtain nonlinear analysis param-eters of the frame pushover analysis of the frame is firstcarried out and the resulted capacity curve is shown inFigure 10 Following the procedure stated in Section 222the parameters of the SDOF system can be obtained asfollows meq 473times104 kg heq 128m kf 4375 kNmfyf 400 kN and η 01

33 Comparison between the Analysis Results Utilizing theabove two FE models pushover analyses of the FSCWstructure are conducted respectively To save space onlypin-jointed connection between the linking beam and the SC

wall is considered here In addition it is supposed that theconcentrated force is applied laterally on the top of the SCwall

Figure 11 shows the capacity curves obtained using thetwo models It can be seen that on the whole the two curvesare close especially during the elastic stage Beyond theelastic stage although obvious difference can be observedthe maximum errors between the base shears obtained fromthe two models are less than 11 -e errors may mainlyoriginate from the inaccuracy of the parameters related tothe equivalent SDOF system By adjusting these parametersbetter matches between the results obtained from the twomodels can be available -erefore it can be concluded tosome extent that the proposed simplified analysis model ofthe FSCW structure is capable of approximately capturingthe nonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the appealing advantage of simplicity

4 Dynamic Response Analysis of theFSCW Structure

In this section the above simplified analysis model is furtherutilized to establish motion equations of the FSCW structure

under seismic excitations Without loss of generality onlythe pin-jointed system shown in Figure 4(a) is taken intoaccount Based on the motion equations the numericalsimulation model is constructed using the MATLABSimulink software and the dynamic responses are obtained

41 Motion Equations of the FSCWStructure -e SC wall ofthe FSCW structure is treated as a rigid body which is widelyused in the previous relevant studies and has been verified bysome experiments (eg among others [21 22]) In additionit is supposed that the SC wall only rotates about points O orOprime without sliding under seismic excitations as shown inFigures 12(a) and 13(a) In the two figures θ is the rotationangle of the SC wall which is assumed to be positive for thewall rotating about point O and negative in case of rotatingabout Oprime Besides the damping associated with the system isneglected for simplification

411 Rotating about Oprime When the SC wall rotates aboutpoint Oprime as shown in Figure 12(a) the following momentequilibrium equation can be established according to theDrsquoAlembert principle

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

where heq meq and δeq represent the equivalent heightequivalent mass and equivalent displacement of the SDOFsystem respectively

By converting the MDOF system into a SDOF system(Figure 3) the general analysis model of the FSCW structure(Figures 2(c) and 2(d)) can be further simplified as shown inFigure 4 Furthermore considering that the lateral dis-placement curve of the frame is approximately linear alongthe height [27ndash29] we can have

222 Nonlinear Analysis Parameters of the Frame Toconduct nonlinear analysis of the FSCW structure underlateral loading the nonlinear behavior of the frame needs tobe explicitly taken into account For simplification purposethe hysteresis model of the frame is assumed to be bilinear asshown in Figure 5 where kf fyf and η represents the elasticstiffness the yield force and the postyield stiffness coefficientof the frame Actually the bilinear hysteresis is usuallyadopted to represent the general structural behavior espe-cially for the SDOF system irrespective of the materialsinvolved

In order to obtain nonlinear parameters of the frame thefollowing procedures can be implemented (1) Conductpushover analysis of the frame and obtain the capacity curveie the base shear vs top displacement curve as shown inFigure 6(a) Although various lateral load patterns such as theinverted triangular load uniform load or concentrated loadcan be considered in pushover analysis the one that makesthe lateral displacement approximately linear along the heightis recommended here (2) Convert the capacity curve into theforce vs displacement curve corresponding to the equivalentSDOF system as shown in Figure 6(b) by utilizing equation(4c) as well as the assumption that the frame and theequivalent system have the same base shear (3) Extract thevalues of kf fyf and η directly from the curve approximately bythe plotting method as seen in Figure 6(b)

3 Verification of the Proposed Analysis Model

31Details of theAnalyzedFSCWStructure A representativesix-storey concrete FSCW structure is analyzed in thissection Figure 7 gives the geometry dimensions and re-inforcement details of the FSCW structure In addition thethickness of the SC wall is 240mm -e compressivestrength and elastic modulus of the concrete are 30MPa and30times104MPa respectively -e yield strength and elasticmodulus of the longitudinal rebars in the frame and thelinking beams are 400MPa and 2times105MPa respectively-e PT tendon with an effective radius of 108mm isarranged along the center line of the wall -e elasticmodulus of the tendon and its initial stress are 2times105MPaand 1395MPa respectively For the dampers the yield forceand elastic stiffness are set to be 100 kN and 45 kNmmrespectively

32 FEModeling of the FSCW Structure In this section twodifferent FE models of the FSCW structure are established inthe software ABAQUS [33] one involves the original FSCWstructure and another one uses the proposed simplifiedanalysis model

321 General FE Model Figure 8(a) shows the overall FEmodel of the original FSCW structure -e SC wall ismodeled by the shell element S4R and its material is set to be

elastic since the wall usually exhibits minor or no damageduring lateral loading -e foundation is simulated by thesolid element C3D8R and its material is also set to be elasticNote that the uplift of the foundation may occur due to thecompliance effects of the underlying material and have agreat impact on the rocking behavior of the SC wallhowever it is beyond the scope of this study and thusneglected here -e interaction between the SC wall and thefoundation is considered by defining the surface-to-surfacecontact as shown in Figure 8(b) -e dampers are simulatedby axial connectors and the elastic-perfectly plastic con-stitutive relation is adopted Besides the PT tendon issimulated by the beam element B31 with one end tied to thetop of the wall and another one anchored directly to thefoundation and its material is also set to be elastic

-e frame and the linking beams are modeled using thebeam element B31 -e concrete constitutive relation shownin Figure 8(c) which ignores its tensile strength [34] is usedhere By way of the user material subroutine [33] the aboveconcrete constitutive relation is programmed into ABAQUS-e longitudinal rebars are simulated by adding the keywordlowastrebar in the input file and the elastic-perfectly plasticconstitutive relation is adopted

It is worth noting that the connection between the SCwall and the linking beam needs to be modeled properlyaccording to the type of the FSCW structure For the rigid-jointed system the SC wall and the linking beams are di-rectly merged where they intersect for the pin-jointedsystem the above merging operation is first conductedand then the keyword lowastrelease is used to release the con-straints between the SC wall and the linking beams

322 Simplified FE Model Figure 9 gives the simplified FEmodel of the FSCW structure where the frame is repre-sented by an equivalent SDOF system and simulated by atranslator connector To obtain nonlinear analysis param-eters of the frame pushover analysis of the frame is firstcarried out and the resulted capacity curve is shown inFigure 10 Following the procedure stated in Section 222the parameters of the SDOF system can be obtained asfollows meq 473times104 kg heq 128m kf 4375 kNmfyf 400 kN and η 01

33 Comparison between the Analysis Results Utilizing theabove two FE models pushover analyses of the FSCWstructure are conducted respectively To save space onlypin-jointed connection between the linking beam and the SC

wall is considered here In addition it is supposed that theconcentrated force is applied laterally on the top of the SCwall

Figure 11 shows the capacity curves obtained using thetwo models It can be seen that on the whole the two curvesare close especially during the elastic stage Beyond theelastic stage although obvious difference can be observedthe maximum errors between the base shears obtained fromthe two models are less than 11 -e errors may mainlyoriginate from the inaccuracy of the parameters related tothe equivalent SDOF system By adjusting these parametersbetter matches between the results obtained from the twomodels can be available -erefore it can be concluded tosome extent that the proposed simplified analysis model ofthe FSCW structure is capable of approximately capturingthe nonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the appealing advantage of simplicity

4 Dynamic Response Analysis of theFSCW Structure

In this section the above simplified analysis model is furtherutilized to establish motion equations of the FSCW structure

under seismic excitations Without loss of generality onlythe pin-jointed system shown in Figure 4(a) is taken intoaccount Based on the motion equations the numericalsimulation model is constructed using the MATLABSimulink software and the dynamic responses are obtained

41 Motion Equations of the FSCWStructure -e SC wall ofthe FSCW structure is treated as a rigid body which is widelyused in the previous relevant studies and has been verified bysome experiments (eg among others [21 22]) In additionit is supposed that the SC wall only rotates about points O orOprime without sliding under seismic excitations as shown inFigures 12(a) and 13(a) In the two figures θ is the rotationangle of the SC wall which is assumed to be positive for thewall rotating about point O and negative in case of rotatingabout Oprime Besides the damping associated with the system isneglected for simplification

411 Rotating about Oprime When the SC wall rotates aboutpoint Oprime as shown in Figure 12(a) the following momentequilibrium equation can be established according to theDrsquoAlembert principle

the lateral displacement of the frame and _d is the cor-responding velocity

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

47 kNmm

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

222 Nonlinear Analysis Parameters of the Frame Toconduct nonlinear analysis of the FSCW structure underlateral loading the nonlinear behavior of the frame needs tobe explicitly taken into account For simplification purposethe hysteresis model of the frame is assumed to be bilinear asshown in Figure 5 where kf fyf and η represents the elasticstiffness the yield force and the postyield stiffness coefficientof the frame Actually the bilinear hysteresis is usuallyadopted to represent the general structural behavior espe-cially for the SDOF system irrespective of the materialsinvolved

In order to obtain nonlinear parameters of the frame thefollowing procedures can be implemented (1) Conductpushover analysis of the frame and obtain the capacity curveie the base shear vs top displacement curve as shown inFigure 6(a) Although various lateral load patterns such as theinverted triangular load uniform load or concentrated loadcan be considered in pushover analysis the one that makesthe lateral displacement approximately linear along the heightis recommended here (2) Convert the capacity curve into theforce vs displacement curve corresponding to the equivalentSDOF system as shown in Figure 6(b) by utilizing equation(4c) as well as the assumption that the frame and theequivalent system have the same base shear (3) Extract thevalues of kf fyf and η directly from the curve approximately bythe plotting method as seen in Figure 6(b)

3 Verification of the Proposed Analysis Model

31Details of theAnalyzedFSCWStructure A representativesix-storey concrete FSCW structure is analyzed in thissection Figure 7 gives the geometry dimensions and re-inforcement details of the FSCW structure In addition thethickness of the SC wall is 240mm -e compressivestrength and elastic modulus of the concrete are 30MPa and30times104MPa respectively -e yield strength and elasticmodulus of the longitudinal rebars in the frame and thelinking beams are 400MPa and 2times105MPa respectively-e PT tendon with an effective radius of 108mm isarranged along the center line of the wall -e elasticmodulus of the tendon and its initial stress are 2times105MPaand 1395MPa respectively For the dampers the yield forceand elastic stiffness are set to be 100 kN and 45 kNmmrespectively

32 FEModeling of the FSCW Structure In this section twodifferent FE models of the FSCW structure are established inthe software ABAQUS [33] one involves the original FSCWstructure and another one uses the proposed simplifiedanalysis model

321 General FE Model Figure 8(a) shows the overall FEmodel of the original FSCW structure -e SC wall ismodeled by the shell element S4R and its material is set to be

elastic since the wall usually exhibits minor or no damageduring lateral loading -e foundation is simulated by thesolid element C3D8R and its material is also set to be elasticNote that the uplift of the foundation may occur due to thecompliance effects of the underlying material and have agreat impact on the rocking behavior of the SC wallhowever it is beyond the scope of this study and thusneglected here -e interaction between the SC wall and thefoundation is considered by defining the surface-to-surfacecontact as shown in Figure 8(b) -e dampers are simulatedby axial connectors and the elastic-perfectly plastic con-stitutive relation is adopted Besides the PT tendon issimulated by the beam element B31 with one end tied to thetop of the wall and another one anchored directly to thefoundation and its material is also set to be elastic

-e frame and the linking beams are modeled using thebeam element B31 -e concrete constitutive relation shownin Figure 8(c) which ignores its tensile strength [34] is usedhere By way of the user material subroutine [33] the aboveconcrete constitutive relation is programmed into ABAQUS-e longitudinal rebars are simulated by adding the keywordlowastrebar in the input file and the elastic-perfectly plasticconstitutive relation is adopted

It is worth noting that the connection between the SCwall and the linking beam needs to be modeled properlyaccording to the type of the FSCW structure For the rigid-jointed system the SC wall and the linking beams are di-rectly merged where they intersect for the pin-jointedsystem the above merging operation is first conductedand then the keyword lowastrelease is used to release the con-straints between the SC wall and the linking beams

322 Simplified FE Model Figure 9 gives the simplified FEmodel of the FSCW structure where the frame is repre-sented by an equivalent SDOF system and simulated by atranslator connector To obtain nonlinear analysis param-eters of the frame pushover analysis of the frame is firstcarried out and the resulted capacity curve is shown inFigure 10 Following the procedure stated in Section 222the parameters of the SDOF system can be obtained asfollows meq 473times104 kg heq 128m kf 4375 kNmfyf 400 kN and η 01

33 Comparison between the Analysis Results Utilizing theabove two FE models pushover analyses of the FSCWstructure are conducted respectively To save space onlypin-jointed connection between the linking beam and the SC

wall is considered here In addition it is supposed that theconcentrated force is applied laterally on the top of the SCwall

Figure 11 shows the capacity curves obtained using thetwo models It can be seen that on the whole the two curvesare close especially during the elastic stage Beyond theelastic stage although obvious difference can be observedthe maximum errors between the base shears obtained fromthe two models are less than 11 -e errors may mainlyoriginate from the inaccuracy of the parameters related tothe equivalent SDOF system By adjusting these parametersbetter matches between the results obtained from the twomodels can be available -erefore it can be concluded tosome extent that the proposed simplified analysis model ofthe FSCW structure is capable of approximately capturingthe nonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the appealing advantage of simplicity

4 Dynamic Response Analysis of theFSCW Structure

In this section the above simplified analysis model is furtherutilized to establish motion equations of the FSCW structure

under seismic excitations Without loss of generality onlythe pin-jointed system shown in Figure 4(a) is taken intoaccount Based on the motion equations the numericalsimulation model is constructed using the MATLABSimulink software and the dynamic responses are obtained

41 Motion Equations of the FSCWStructure -e SC wall ofthe FSCW structure is treated as a rigid body which is widelyused in the previous relevant studies and has been verified bysome experiments (eg among others [21 22]) In additionit is supposed that the SC wall only rotates about points O orOprime without sliding under seismic excitations as shown inFigures 12(a) and 13(a) In the two figures θ is the rotationangle of the SC wall which is assumed to be positive for thewall rotating about point O and negative in case of rotatingabout Oprime Besides the damping associated with the system isneglected for simplification

411 Rotating about Oprime When the SC wall rotates aboutpoint Oprime as shown in Figure 12(a) the following momentequilibrium equation can be established according to theDrsquoAlembert principle

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

(1) -e proposed simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure can be approximately used to capture thenonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the great advantage of highcomputational efficiency Based on the simplifiedanalysis model seismic responses of the FSCW struc-ture can be obtained by solving numerically themotionequations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations

(2) Within the parameter values considered in thisstudy improving the yield force or elastic stiffness ofthe frame can remarkably mitigate seismic responsesof the FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angleof the SC wall In addition increasing the initial forceof the PT tendon as well as the yield force or elasticstiffness of the damper has also a beneficial effect

wall is considered here In addition it is supposed that theconcentrated force is applied laterally on the top of the SCwall

Figure 11 shows the capacity curves obtained using thetwo models It can be seen that on the whole the two curvesare close especially during the elastic stage Beyond theelastic stage although obvious difference can be observedthe maximum errors between the base shears obtained fromthe two models are less than 11 -e errors may mainlyoriginate from the inaccuracy of the parameters related tothe equivalent SDOF system By adjusting these parametersbetter matches between the results obtained from the twomodels can be available -erefore it can be concluded tosome extent that the proposed simplified analysis model ofthe FSCW structure is capable of approximately capturingthe nonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the appealing advantage of simplicity

4 Dynamic Response Analysis of theFSCW Structure

In this section the above simplified analysis model is furtherutilized to establish motion equations of the FSCW structure

under seismic excitations Without loss of generality onlythe pin-jointed system shown in Figure 4(a) is taken intoaccount Based on the motion equations the numericalsimulation model is constructed using the MATLABSimulink software and the dynamic responses are obtained

41 Motion Equations of the FSCWStructure -e SC wall ofthe FSCW structure is treated as a rigid body which is widelyused in the previous relevant studies and has been verified bysome experiments (eg among others [21 22]) In additionit is supposed that the SC wall only rotates about points O orOprime without sliding under seismic excitations as shown inFigures 12(a) and 13(a) In the two figures θ is the rotationangle of the SC wall which is assumed to be positive for thewall rotating about point O and negative in case of rotatingabout Oprime Besides the damping associated with the system isneglected for simplification

411 Rotating about Oprime When the SC wall rotates aboutpoint Oprime as shown in Figure 12(a) the following momentequilibrium equation can be established according to theDrsquoAlembert principle

the lateral displacement of the frame and _d is the cor-responding velocity

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

It is worth noting that only the lateral displacement ofthe linking beam end connected to the SC wall is con-sidered to facilitate the above formulation It is approxi-mately valid in case of small rotation of the SC wall as wellas considering that the width of the wall is usually smallerthan its height Under this circumstance the linking beamprimarily plays a role of delivering the lateral force betweenthe SC wall and the frame In addition the hypothesis thatthe SC wall rocks about its tips which arises from theaforementioned rigid body assumption may seem to beunrealistic as reported in some references (see among

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

where _θ1 and _θ2 are the angular velocity of the wall beforeand after the impact respectively From the above equationit can be derived that

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

(1) -e proposed simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure can be approximately used to capture thenonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the great advantage of highcomputational efficiency Based on the simplifiedanalysis model seismic responses of the FSCW struc-ture can be obtained by solving numerically themotionequations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations

(2) Within the parameter values considered in thisstudy improving the yield force or elastic stiffness ofthe frame can remarkably mitigate seismic responsesof the FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angleof the SC wall In addition increasing the initial forceof the PT tendon as well as the yield force or elasticstiffness of the damper has also a beneficial effect

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

I0_θ1 minusm _θ1b

where _θ1 and _θ2 are the angular velocity of the wall beforeand after the impact respectively From the above equationit can be derived that

k _θ2_θ1

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

47 kNmm

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

42 Mathematical Description of the Hysteresis Fromequation (17) it can be seen that the restoring forces of thedampers and frame ie f1(x1 _x1) f2(x2 _x2) and F(d _d)need to be expressed explicitly so as to obtain the solutionAgain a bilinear hysteresis shown in Figure 5 is adopted forthe frame and the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis is usedfor the damper

Note that the elastic-perfectly plastic hysteresis can beseen as a special bilinear hysteresis provided that thepostyield stiffness is set to zero For the bilinear hysteresisillustrated in Figure 14 where fy xy ks and η represent theyield force the yield displacement the elastic stiffness andthe postyield stiffness coefficient respectively the restoringforce can be written mathematically as follows [36]

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

I0_θ1 minusm _θ1b

where _θ1 and _θ2 are the angular velocity of the wall beforeand after the impact respectively From the above equationit can be derived that

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

6 Results and Discussions

61 Effect of Parameters concerning the PT Tendon To in-vestigate the effect of the parameters regarding the PTtendon on seismic responses of the FSCW structure theparametric analyses are conducted with the values of Fp0 andkp altered according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are set as follows Fy 1879 kN kd

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

47 kNmm

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

7 Conclusions

For the frame the following expression is approximatelyvalid

d heqθ(t) (22)

43 Consideration of the Impact When the SC wall returnsto the original position ie θ 0 an impact between the walland the ground occurs It is assumed that the rotation of thewall changes continuously during the impact According tothe principle of conservation of moment of momentum therelationship between the angular velocity of the SC wallbefore and after impact can be determined approximately asfollows [5]

I0_θ1 minusm _θ1b

l

2sin α I0

_θ2 (23)

where _θ1 and _θ2 are the angular velocity of the wall beforeand after the impact respectively From the above equationit can be derived that

k _θ2_θ1

1minus32sin2 α (24)

where k is the ratio between the angular velocity of the SCwall after and before the impact Note that k is generallysmaller than 10 since energy is always dissipated during theimpact

44 Numerical Simulation -e above sections present thecomplete description of dynamic behavior of the FSCWstructure under seismic excitations Due to its highlynonlinear nature the MATLABSimulink software isemployed here to obtain the numerical solutions [37] -eSimulink model is built as shown schematically in Figure 15A total of eight subsystems or modules ie the groundexcitation module the SC wall subsystem the PT tendonsubsystem the frame subsystem the damper subsystem twointegrator modules and the output module are involved inthemodel-e ground excitationmodule is used to input theseismic excitations -e main parameters related to thesubsystems include (i) b h and m (the SC wall subsystem)(ii) Fp0 and kp (the PT tendon subsystem) (iii) fyf kf and η(the frame subsystem) and (iv) fy and kd (the dampersubsystem) -e Integration 1 module is responsible tosimulate the impact between the SC wall and the ground by

modifying the angular velocity after the impact through theGain module For the integration modules the solver type ischosen to be ode23tb (stiffTR-BDF2) [37] the time intervalis set to be variable and the relative tolerance is set to be0001

-e established Simulink model is further applied toanalyze seismic responses of the FSCW structure with thesame parameters as given in Section 322 -e EL Centrorecord shown in Figure 16 is selected as the ground exci-tation and its peak value is adjusted to 510 cms2 [38] -edynamic responses of the FSCW structure including thetime-history curve of the rotation angle of the wall andhysteresis curves of the dampers and the frame are obtainedand plotted in Figures 17(a)ndash17(d) respectively It can beseen that the hysteresis of the dampers is elastic-perfectlyplastic and one of the frames is bilinear showing that theresults can properly replicate the hysteresis characteristics ofthe FSCW structure -erefore the Simulink model can beused approximately to predict dynamic responses of theFSCW structure under seismic excitations

5 Parametric Study

In this section a comprehensive parametric study is con-ducted using the above Simulink model to investigate theinfluence of a variety of design parameters on dynamicresponses of the FSCW structure under seismic excitations-e rotation angle of the SC wall is selected to representdynamic responses of the FSCW structure since it canapproximately give some other responses such as the lateraldisplacement of the frame (equation (22))

51 Ground Motion Records A total of seven earthquakerecords which include six real earthquake records and anartificial one designated as EQ01-EQ07 respectively areemployed here to conduct the time-history analysis -eproperties related to the selected earthquake records aresummarized and listed in Table 1 Again all the records arescaled to have a peak value of 510 cms2 [38]

52 Parameter Values Involved in ltis Study Six in-dependent design parameters are taken into account whichinclude the initial force and elastic stiffness of the PT tendonthe yield force and elastic stiffness of the damper and theyield force and elastic stiffness of the frame -e parametervalues involved in this study are listed in Table 2 while theother parameters have the same values as in Section 322

6 Results and Discussions

61 Effect of Parameters concerning the PT Tendon To in-vestigate the effect of the parameters regarding the PTtendon on seismic responses of the FSCW structure theparametric analyses are conducted with the values of Fp0 andkp altered according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are set as follows Fy 1879 kN kd

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

47 kNmm

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

7 Conclusions

In this paper a simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure is first proposed After validated by the FE analysismethod the model is further utilized to establish motionequations of the FSCW structure under seismic excitationsBy way of numerical simulation seismic responses of theFSCW structure are obtained Finally a comprehensiveparametric study is conducted to study the influence of avariety of design parameters on seismic responses of theFSCW structure Based on the findings of this study thefollowing conclusions can be drawn

(1) -e proposed simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure can be approximately used to capture thenonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the great advantage of highcomputational efficiency Based on the simplifiedanalysis model seismic responses of the FSCW struc-ture can be obtained by solving numerically themotionequations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations

(2) Within the parameter values considered in thisstudy improving the yield force or elastic stiffness ofthe frame can remarkably mitigate seismic responsesof the FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angleof the SC wall In addition increasing the initial forceof the PT tendon as well as the yield force or elasticstiffness of the damper has also a beneficial effect

Figures 18(a) and 18(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fp0 and kp respectively In the two cases kpand Fp0 are set as 3932 kNmm and 50808 kN respectivelyIt can be seen that the maximum rotation angle of the SCwall decreases obviously with the increase of Fp0 whilechanging little with the increase of kp -erefore improvingthe initial force of the PT tendon has a beneficial effect onrestraining seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall while the elasticstiffness of the PT tendon has little effect

62 Effect of Parameters concerning the Dampers In theparametric analyses regarding the dampers the valuesof Fy and kd are changed according to Table 2 respec-tively -e other parameter values are taken as followsFp0 50808 kN kp 3932 kNmm fyf 500 kN and kf

47 kNmm

Figures 19(a) and 19(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of Fy and kd respectively For the two casesthe values of kd and Fy are set as 19504 kNmm and1879 kN respectively It can be seen that on the whole themaximum rotation angle of the SC wall decreases as Fy or kdincreases -erefore increasing the yield force or the elasticstiffness of the damper can help lower seismic responses ofthe FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angle of the SCwall

63 Effect of Parameters concerning the Frame In theparametric analyses regarding the frame the values of fyf andkf are varied according to Table 2 respectively -e otherparameter values are taken as follows Fp0 50808 kNkp 3932 kNmm Fy 1879 kN and kd 19504 kNmm

Figures 20(a) and 20(b) show the maximum rotationangle of the SC wall averaging over the selected records forvarious values of fyf and kf respectively For the two casesthe values of kf and fyf are set as 47 kNmm and 500 kNrespectively It can be seen that the maximum rotation angleof the SC wall falls abruptly as fyf or kf increases For ex-ample as fyf changes from 300 kN to 700 kN the maximumrotation angle drops by about 4080 -erefore increasingthe yield force or the elastic stiffness of the frame can re-markably reduce seismic responses of the FSCW structure interms of the rotation angle of the SC wall

7 Conclusions

In this paper a simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure is first proposed After validated by the FE analysismethod the model is further utilized to establish motionequations of the FSCW structure under seismic excitationsBy way of numerical simulation seismic responses of theFSCW structure are obtained Finally a comprehensiveparametric study is conducted to study the influence of avariety of design parameters on seismic responses of theFSCW structure Based on the findings of this study thefollowing conclusions can be drawn

(1) -e proposed simplified analysis model of the FSCWstructure can be approximately used to capture thenonlinear behavior of the FSCW structure under lateralloading while having the great advantage of highcomputational efficiency Based on the simplifiedanalysis model seismic responses of the FSCW struc-ture can be obtained by solving numerically themotionequations of the FSCW structure under seismicexcitations

(2) Within the parameter values considered in thisstudy improving the yield force or elastic stiffness ofthe frame can remarkably mitigate seismic responsesof the FSCW structure in terms of the rotation angleof the SC wall In addition increasing the initial forceof the PT tendon as well as the yield force or elasticstiffness of the damper has also a beneficial effect
