1 DAMPING AND ENERGY DISSIPATION Liear Viscous Dampig Is A Propery Of The Compuer Model Ad Is No A Propery Of A Real Srucure INTRODUCTION I srucural egieerig, viscous, velociy-depede dampig is very difficul o visualize for mos real srucural sysems. Oly a small umber of srucures have a fiie umber of dampig elemes where real viscous dyamic properies ca be measured. I mos cases modal dampig raios are used i he compuer model o approximae ukow oliear eergy dissipaio wihi he srucure. Aoher form of dampig, ha is ofe used i he mahemaical model for he simulaio of he dyamic respose of a srucure, is proporioal o he siffess ad mass of he srucure. This is referred o as Rayleigh dampig. Boh modal ad Rayleigh dampig are used i order o avoid he eed o form a dampig marix based o he physical properies of he real srucure. I rece years, he addiio of eergy dissipaio devices o he srucure has forced he srucural egieer o rea he eergy dissipaio i a more exac maer. I his chaper, he limiaios of modal ad Rayleigh dampig will be discussed. I addiio, deailed algorihms will be preseed for umerical soluio, by ieraio, for several differe ypes of oliear eergy dissipaio devices.

2 2 DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES DAMPING IN REAL STRUCTURES I is possible o esimae a effecive viscous dampig raio direcly from laboraory or field ess of srucures. Oe mehod is o apply a saic displaceme by aachig a cable o he srucure ad he suddely removig he load by cuig he cable. If he srucure ca be approximaed by a sigle degree of freedom, he displaceme respose will be of he form show i Figure For muli-degreeof-freedom srucural sysems, he respose will ivolve he respose of more modes ad he es ad he aalysis mehod required o predic he dampig raios will be more complex. I should be poied ou ha he decay of he ypical displaceme respose oly idicaes ha eergy dissipaio is akig place. The cause of he eergy dissipaio may be due o may differe effecs such as maerial dampig, joi fricio ad radiaio dampig a he suppors. However, if i is assumed ha all eergy dissipaio is due o liear viscous dampig, he free vibraio respose is give by he followig equaio: ξω u () = u() 0 e cos( ω ) D (19.1) 2 where ω D = ω 1 ξ Figure Free Vibraio Tes of Real Srucures, Respose vs. Time

3 DAMPING AND ENERGY DISSIPATION 3 Equaio (19.1) ca be evaluaed a ay wo maximum pois m cycles apar ad he followig wo equaios are produced: u( 2π) = u = u( 0) e ξω 2π/ ω D u( 2π( + m)) = u = u( 0) e + 1 ξω2π ( + m)/ ω D (19.2) (19.3) The raio of hese wo equaios is u u + 1 = e 2π mξ 2 1 ξ (19.4) Takig he aural logarihm of his raio ad rewriig produces he followig equaio: ξ l( u / u+ m ) ξ or, ξ = ξ 0 1 ξ ( 2π m = i 1) (19.5) This equaio ca easily be solved for he dampig raio ξ by ieraio. For example, if he decay raio u + m is equal o 1.25 bewee wo adjace maximums, hree ieraios yield ξ = Field esig of real srucures, subjeced o small displacemes, idicaes ypical dampig raios are less ha wo perce. Also, for mos srucures, he dampig is o liear ad is o proporioal o he velociy USE OF VISCOUS DAMPING IN ANALYSIS I he elasic dyamic aalysis of mos srucures subjeced o earhquake moios i is very commo o use five perce dampig for all modes. However, his value, i mos cases, has very lile experimeal or heoreical jusificaio. Also, for muli degree-of-freedom sysems, he use of modal dampig violaes dyamic equilibrium ad he fudameal laws of physics. For example, i is possible o calculae he

4 4 DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES reacios, as a fucio of ime, a he base of a srucure by he followig wo mehods: Firs, he ieria forces, a each mass poi, ca be calculaed i a specific direcio by he muliplicaio of he absolue acceleraio i ha direcio imes he mass a he poi. I he case of earhquake loadig, he sum of all hese forces mus be equal o he sum of he base reacio forces i ha direcio sice o oher forces ac o he srucure. Secod, he member forces, a he eds of all members aached o reacio pois, ca be calculaed as a fucio of ime. The sum of he compoes of he member forces i he direcio of he load is he base reacio force experieced by he srucure. I he case of zero modal dampig hese reacio forces, as a fucio of ime, are ideical. However, for ozero modal dampig, hese reacio forces are sigificaly differe. These differeces idicae ha liear modal dampig iroduces exeral loads, acig o he srucure above he base, which are physically impossible. This is clearly a area where he sadard sae of he ar assumpio of modal dampig eeds o be re-examied ad a aleraive approach mus be developed. Eergy dissipaio exiss i real srucures. However, i mus be i he form of equal ad opposie forces bewee pois wihi he srucure. Therefore, a viscous damper, or ay oher ype of eergy dissipaig device, coeced bewee wo pois wihi he srucure is physically possible ad will o cause a error i he reacio forces. There mus be zero base shear for all ieral eergy dissipaio forces. Aoher ype of eergy dissipaio ha exiss i real srucures is radiaio dampig a he suppors of he srucure. The vibraio of he srucure srais he foudaio maerial ear he suppors ad causes sress waves o radiae io he ifiie foudaio. This ca be sigifica if he foudaio maerial is sof relaive o he siffess of he srucure. A sprig, damper ad mass a each suppor ofe approximae his ype of dampig.

5 DAMPING AND ENERGY DISSIPATION NUMERICAL EXAMPLE I order o illusrae he errors ivolved i he use of modal dampig a simple sevesory buildig was subjeced o a ypical earhquake moio. Table 19.1 idicaes he values of base shear calculaed from he exeral ieria forces, which saisfy dyamic equilibrium, ad he base shear calculaed from he exac summaio of he shears a he base of he hree colums a each ime icreme. I is of ieres o oe ha he maximum values of base shear, calculaed from wo differe mehods, are sigificaly differe for he same compuer ru. The oly logical explaaio is he exisece of exeral dampig forces ha exis oly i he mahemaical model of he srucure. Sice his is physically impossible, he use of sadard modal dampig ca produce a small error i he aalysis. TABLE Compariso of Base Shear for Seve Sory Buildig Dampig Perce Dyamic Equilibrium BASE SHEAR (kips) Sum of Colum SHEARS (kips) ERROR Perce Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec Sec I is of ieres o oe ha he use of oly five perce dampig reduces he base shear from 371 kips o 254 kips for his example. Sice he measureme of dampig i mos real srucures has bee foud o be less ha wo perce he selecio of five perce reduces he resuls sigificaly STRUCTURES WITH LINEAR VISCOUS DAMPERS I is possible o model srucural sysems wih liear viscous dampers a arbirary locaios wihi a srucural sysem. The exac soluio ivolves he calculaio of complex eigevalues ad eigevecors ad a large amou of compuaioal effor. Sice he basic aure of eergy dissipaio is o clearly defied i real srucures ad viscous dampig is ofe used o approximae oliear behavior, his icrease

6 6 DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES i compuaioal effor is o jusified sice we are o solvig he real problem. A more efficie mehod o solve his problem is o move he dampig force o he righ had side of he dyamic equilibrium equaio ad solve he problem as a oliear problem usig he FNA mehod STIFFNESS AND MASS PROPORTIONAL DAMPING A very commo ype of dampig used i he oliear icremeal aalysis of srucures is o assume ha he dampig marix is proporioal o he mass ad siffess marices. Or, C= η M+ δ K (19.6) This ype of dampig is ormally referred o as Rayleigh dampig. I mode superposiio aalysis he dampig marix mus have he followig properies i order for he modal equaios o be ucoupled: T 2ω ζ = φ C φ (19.7) Due o he orhogoaliy properies of he mass ad siffess marices, his equaio ca be rewrie as 2 2ωζ = η+ δω or, ζ 1 ω η ω = + δ 2 2 (19.8) I is appare ha modal dampig ca be specified exacly a oly wo frequecies i order o solve for η ad δ i he above equaio. I addiio, he assumpio of mass proporioal dampig implies he exisece of exeral suppored dampers ha are physically impossible for a base suppored srucure. The use of siffess proporioal dampig has he effec of icreasig he dampig i he higher modes of he srucure for which here is o physical jusificaio ad ca resul i sigifica errors for impac ype of problems. Therefore, he use of Rayleigh ype of dampig is difficul o jusify for mos srucures. However, i coiues o be used by may compuer programs i order o obai resuls for umerically sesiive srucural sysems.

Neverheless, i is commo pracice o approximae he oliear behavior wih a equivale liear dampig ad o coduc a oliear aalysis. The major reaso for his approximaio is ha all liear programs for mode superposiio or respose specrum aalysis ca cosider liear viscous dampig i a exac maer. This approximaio is o loger ecessary if he srucural egieer ca ideify where ad how he eergy is dissipaed wihi he srucural sysem.
