Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of earthquake engineering, and particularly relates to a wideband ground motion artificial synthesis method for cross-fault linear engineering, which is suitable for the seismic design and performance evaluation of cross-fault linear engineering such as bridges, tunnels, highways and railways. BACKGROUND

[0002] Ground motion input is a core link in seismic analysis and earthquake disaster simulation, and directly affects the accuracy of structural response and the reliability of seismic performance evaluation. In recent years, with the rapid advancement of China's economic construction, especially the construction of a large number of transportation infrastructure in the southwest high-intensity and high-altitude areas, bridges, tunnels, highways and railways and other linear engineering inevitably cross active fault zones. In the process of seismic rupture propagation, influenced by the complex rupture mechanism of the seismic source, the ground motion on both sides of the fault usually shows significant differences in amplitude, frequency component and energy distribution, which is called non-uniform input of ground motion. The main sources include three aspects: first, the surface permanent displacement caused by the slippage effect, which shows that there is a non-zero residual displacement in the displacement record; second, the velocity pulse caused by the directionality of the source rupture propagation, which often appears in the velocity record in the normal direction of the fault, and has the characteristics of suddenness, long period and large amplitude; third, the spatially coherent high-frequency vibration caused by the complexity of the source and the difference in the propagation path. The above factors together exacerbate the stress complexity and response uncertainty of cross-fault linear engineering in earthquakes.

[0003] However, the current traditional ground motion synthesis and input methods, such as spectral superposition method, random vibration method, single-point input and uniform input, do not fully consider the permanent displacement and velocity pulse characteristics in the near-fault region, and have limitations in expressing the difference and coherence of the input ground motion on both sides of the fault, which is difficult to meet the refined seismic analysis needs of cross-fault linear engineering. Although some countries and regions have proposed principles and recommendations for considering fault deformation or displacement in seismic design codes, such as the ASCE 7-22 standard in the United States, which recommends considering the allowable displacement evaluation of permanent ground deformation, and the Highway Bridge Seismic Design Specification (JTG / T 2231-01-2020) in China, which proposes fault avoidance and limiting measures, but there is still no complete ground motion input modeling technology and standard system for cross-fault linear engineering, especially in the aspect of directional velocity pulse and permanent displacement effect superposition modeling. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a wideband ground motion artificial synthesis method for cross-fault linear engineering. SUMMARY

[0227]

[0228] In the formula:

[0229] FAS syn : Fourier amplitude spectrum of the FP or FN component wideband ground motion;

[0235] S504: Inverse Fourier transform;

[0236] The ground motion acceleration time history in the time domain is obtained by inverse Fourier transform, and then the velocity and displacement time histories are obtained by first integration and twice integration, respectively. Finally, the complete FN and FP component cross-fault wideband ground motion is obtained, which meets the requirements of multi-point input of structural model and has time-frequency consistency and spatial difference.

[0237] For the set strike-slip fault earthquake, the synthesized ground motion time histories on both sides of the fault are as shown in FIG. 2, and the Fourier amplitude spectrum and phase spectrum of the synthesized ground motion time histories are as shown in FIG. 3. Figures 2 to 5The acceleration time histories show good symmetry and coherence on both sides of the main vibration segment with similar amplitude and spectral distribution. The velocity time histories clearly show the directional velocity pulse characteristics, and the FN component shows consistent jump responses on both sides with almost the same pulse amplitude and duration, reflecting that the velocity pulse is mainly controlled by the modulation effect of the rupture propagation direction on the fault normal. The FP component does not contain obvious pulses in the velocity response, but shows symmetric step characteristics in the displacement time history, representing the thrust effect of strike-slip rupture. The displacement time history shows that the permanent displacement of the FP component is equal and opposite on both sides of the fault, indicating that there is obvious reverse dislocation behavior on both sides of the fault, which is consistent with the symmetry characteristics of the surface dislocation of strike-slip fault. Overall, it presents the typical dynamic-static coupling mode of "FN in phase, FP anti-symmetric", which is highly consistent with the actual near-fault strike-slip earthquake record. In addition, the high-frequency part of the synthetic ground motion is generated by the WPT-SRM method, which exhibits non-stationary evolution characteristics and strong spatial coherence, thereby maintaining the consistency and physical authenticity of high-frequency response in the wideband input. The final acceleration, velocity and displacement responses all show good spectral continuity and physical rationality, which are suitable for the input requirements of cross-fault linear engineering under the condition of strike-slip fault rupture.

[0238] Example 2, see attached Figure 1 and attached Figures 6 to 9 For a set of dip-slip fault type earthquake scenarios, the wideband ground motion records on both sides of the fault are synthesized, and the main difference from Example 1 is the set of earthquake scenarios and station parameters, and the rest of the process is consistent with Example 1. In this embodiment 2, the source, station and engineering site parameters of the set earthquake scenario are shown in Table 2.

[0240]

[0241]

[0242] For the set of dip-slip fault earthquakes, the synthesized fault two-side ground motion time histories are shown in the attached Figures 6 to 9The acceleration time histories show similar amplitudes and consistent duration and frequency structure in the main vibration segments of the upper and lower plates, which reflects the basic consistent input characteristics driven by the co-source rupture process. In the velocity time histories, the FN component shows a sudden directional velocity pulse response in both the upper and lower plates, with similar pulse amplitudes and durations, indicating that the velocity pulse is still mainly controlled by the fault normal rupture propagation mechanism. However, the FP component does not show a significant velocity pulse, but it does show a permanent displacement in the displacement response that is significantly different in amplitude between the upper and lower plates. Specifically, the FP direction displacement is close to 100 cm in the upper plate, while it is only about 50 cm in the lower plate, showing a significant asymmetric feature between the upper and lower plates. This trend is consistent with the surface observations of thrust faults: since the upper plate is closer to the rupture surface, it bears the superposition of fault uplift and horizontal propulsion, resulting in a larger residual displacement amplitude; while the lower plate is relatively far from the rupture surface, the displacement is offset in the opposite direction and the amplitude is relatively small. Overall, the dynamic-static coupling effect is "FN in phase and FP amplitude asymmetric", which is highly consistent with the observations of near-fault dip-slip earthquakes. Similarly, the high-frequency part of the synthetic ground motion is generated by the WPT-SRM method, which maintains the spatial variability and non-stationary characteristics of the frequency distribution, further enhancing the expressiveness and physical consistency in the high-frequency band. The final wideband ground motion shows good spectral continuity and mechanical reasonableness in the acceleration, velocity, and displacement response indicators, verifying the adaptability and engineering applicability of the proposed method under the condition of dip-slip faults.
