Abstrakt:

Intake towers, essential for hydraulic hub projects, are integral to maintaining safety and efficiency, especially under seismic conditions that are prevalent near fault zones. These structures are vital for the integrity of hydraulic hubs, effective hydropower generation, and downstream safety. The duration of seismic events notably influences the towers’ structural response. In light of China’s initiative to build numerous high dams and large reservoirs, understanding the interplay between seismic duration and the intake tower response is crucial. This study, utilizing a duration-dependent composite parameter method based on seismic intensity, investigates the impact of near-fault ground motion duration effects on the response characteristics of intake towers. It analyzes the correlation between three types of six duration parameters and six duration-related composite parameters with the nonlinear seismic response of the physical model of the intake tower structure, as well as the rapid seismic response of the simplified model. This study investigates the impact of near-fault ground motion duration on intake towers, which is crucial for hydraulic hub projects, particularly in seismic-prone areas like those targeted by China’s dam construction initiative. Utilizing a duration-dependent composite parameter method, the study establishes a strong correlation between seismic duration parameters and the nonlinear response of intake towers, emphasizing the significance of uniform duration-related composite intensity parameters for characterizing near-fault seismic motion features. The findings reveal a pronounced correlation between the elasto-plastic response of intake towers and consistent duration-related composite strength parameters, offering crucial insights for optimizing structural design and enhancing seismic response assessment, particularly in the realm of large-scale dam projects.
