خلاصه مقاله:
Rocking Walls (RWs) are considered as fairly new controlling systems in Earthquake Engineering. These systems are used in new and retrofit construction with the aim of enhancingthe seismicperformance of buildings. Despite the significant studies reported on the efficiency of the RW systems in preventing the damage and controlling the deformation patterns through suppressing higher-mode vibrations in regular buildings, their noticeable advantages in irregular buildings have not been investigated sufficiently. This study intends to evaluate the seismic performanceof a vertically irregular multistory reinforced concrete(RC) moment resisting frame(MRF)building which is vulnerable to soft story mechanismand to retrofit it by using precast concrete RWs with post-tensioned tendons. To this end, the three-dimensional (3D) numericalmodel of the irregular multistory RC building has been developed using OpenSees software. Extensive pushover as well as nonlinear time history analyses have been carried out using ninestrong ground motions with different frequency content in order to investigate the effectiveness of such controlling systems in improving the seismic response of the benchmark building. The results and findings of this research are indicative of improved performance of the RW systems in controlling the seismic response and soft story mechanism of irregular RC-MRF buildings
