摘要
A strong earthquake commonly triggers the occurrence of multiple aftershocks. Since the time interval between mainshock and aftershock is very short, the mainshock-damaged structure cannot be repaired in time and could suffer further damage during aftershocks. A five-story RC frame structure was designed according to the current codes is used as a case study. The cumulative damages of structures subjected to earthquake sequences and the aftershock-induced incremental damages were investigated. A suite of 75 actual mainshock-aftershock sequences was formulated as earthquake inputs. Concurrently, the actual mainshock records were used as seeds to generate two sets of artificial mainshock-aftershock sequences using repeated method and randomized method. The modified Park-Ang damage index was used as the measures of structural damages caused by the actual and artificial mainshock-aftershock sequences. The aftershock-induced incremental damage in terms of the modified Park-Ang damage index was also assessed. The intensity measures of peak ground acceleration, spectral acceleration and Arias intensity, were further used as the indicators of mainshock and aftershock intensities. Then the correlation between the aftershock-to-mainshock intensity ratio and the aftershock-induced incremental damages was investigated. The results show that the artificial mainshock-aftershock sequences using the randomized method can cause the most significant incremental damages in comparison with the actual ones and those generated by the repeated method. The aftershock-to-mainshock intensity ratio can predict the significance of the aftershock-induced incremental damage with considerable confidence. © 2019, Editorial Office of Journal of Building Structures.
