Theory: Background Testing infrastructure must enable:

1. Simulation of individual sub-structures2. Integration of equations of motion

Page 17: Hybrid Simulations: Theory and Applications in Earthquake

Seminar on Recent Advances & Directions in Earthquake Eng., Minho Univ., Portugal, Oct. 2012

Theory: Background

Advantages:1. Physical model resistance of sub-structures whose computer

models are not good enough.2. Model the inertia forces (and damping, and second-order

effects) in the computer.

Disadvantages:1. Substructures are connected and interact at their boundaries.2. Specimens have inertia and damping, too.

Theory: Background

Damping and inertia:1. Explicit consideration of physical dampers and physical masses, based on measured

velocities and accelerations.2. DOF condensation must be performed carefully.3. Coordinate transformations must be propagated to velocities and accelerations.

Second-order effects:Geometric stiffness may be assembled into the resistance:

Nature of the problem requires substructuring

Presence of experimental substructures requires the use of special integration methods

Presence of a transfer system introduces simulation errors

Rate dependent materials require real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS)

Making use of multiple labs extends the method to geographically distributed testing

No distinguishable pattern & generally no specific physical effects are anticipated

Random electrical noise in wires and electronic systems

Random rounding-off or truncation in the A/D conversion of electrical signals

Random noise in measured forces is problematic excites spurious response in higher modes

Theory: Real-time HS

Requirement for real time: Loading rate = computed velocity

Slow HS sufficient for most cases when rate effects are not important

Real-time HS essential for rate-dependent materials and devices, e.g.viscous dampers or triple friction pendulum isolators

RTHS classified into two groups:

RTHS conducted in a discrete actuator configuration

RTHS conducted in a shaking table configuration (Application II)

Application I: HS of Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs)

Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) are composite panels for energy efficientconstruction

Composed of an energy-efficient core placed in between facing materials

Their application in seismically hazardous regions is limited due tosomewhat unacceptable performance as demonstrated by cyclic testing

Limited number of tests with more realistic dynamic loading regimes

Hybrid simulation is ideal to test SIPs with a variety of structuralconfigurations and ground motion excitations

Application I: HS of Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs)

Concluding Remarks

HS provides the force-deformation envelope that can also be obtained from acyclic test. But it also provides response values, where the cyclic test wouldrequire complimentary analytical simulations for these values.

HS with harmonic ground motion provides a slightly more degraded post-yield response than the CUREE protocol due to the large number of cyclesdemanded by the harmonic ground motion.

Based on global and local displacements, near-fault pulse-type GM is morecritical & damaging for SIPs compared to long duration GM with many cycles.

Although the global and local responses of SIPs with and without analytical substructuring are not dramatically different, there is a need for analytical substructuring for a more realistic dynamic representation.

Application II: RTHS of Electrical Insulator Posts on a Smart Shaking Table

Motivation for Hybrid Simulation

Hybrid simulation: a cost effective and efficient alternative to theconventional shaking table testing of the disconnect switches

Requirement for real-time: Rate-dependency of some types of insulatorposts, e.g. polymer composite insulators, mandates use of RTHS

Requirement for a shaking table configuration: Distributed mass of insulatorposts prevents practical use of actuators at discrete locations along theheight & requires RTHS conducted on shaking table configurations.

A RTHS system is developed for testing insulator posts of highvoltage disconnect switches on a “smart” shaking table

Concluding Remarks

Good match of the results with a benchmark shaking table test is a strongverification of HS

Economically and time efficiently conducted 78 RTHS tests and resultsregarding the design of disconnect switches related to the selection of boththe insulators and support structures are a proof of the usefulness of HS
