Response Displacement Method for Seismic Calculation of Subway Station Complex Structure of TOD Mode

The TOD mode with rail transit stations as the center has become an important direction of future central city construction. However, at present, there is still a lack of simplified calculation methods for the seismic design of a subway station complex structure of TOD mode. Based on the load-structure model of the classic response displacement method and the seismic deformation characteristics of the underground complex structure, an improved response displacement method for seismic calculation of the subway station complex structure considering the influence of the upper frame structure was proposed in this paper. Then, based on the actual engineering case, the applicability of the improved reaction displacement method was verified through investigating the influencing factors such as seismic wave type, ground motion intensity, building position, structure form, structure stiffness, and stratum stiffness. Furthermore, a series of numerical simulation experiments were conducted to verify the simplified method and further evaluate its computational accuracy. The result shows that the error in calculating the internal force and deformation response of a station complex structure by using the improved reaction displacement method can be controlled at about 10%. The improved response deformation method is proved to be a highly practical pseudo-static method.
