energy demand of an earthquake. Majority of the previous studies have utilized existing real ground motion sets for energy-based seismic response evaluation. However, in regions where there is lack of real records from potential events with large magnitudes, simulated motions could be employed alternatively. One important task is to investigate the suitability of the simulated motions in energy-based response evaluation of structural systems. Since these records provide a controlled variability in seismic demand, it is significant to assess them in terms of energy responses. In this study, stochastic finite-fault methodology is used for simulation of a wide range of scenario events using regional input parameters for two different seismically active areas: Duzce and Erzincan (Turkey). Then, the energy-based response of simple structural systems, i.e. single-degree-of-freedom systems are assessed with time history analyses using the generated simulated ground motion sets for the selected case studies. The results are compared with the existing empirical relationships in between seismic demand and capacity responses (e.g.: input energy, damping energy, and hysteretic energy) developed based on real ground motion datasets. Our numerical results show that simulated records yield realistic results in terms of energy demand.

Seismic fragilities for non-ductile reinforced concrete frames - Role of aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties Çelik, Ozan Cem (2010-01-01) Seismic fragilities are essential to earthquake loss estimation and performance-based earthquake engineering in regions of high seismicity. Construction practices for frames in regions of moderate seismicity are quite different, and such frames have received less attention in the literature. Fragilities for performance levels identified in recent seismic regulations are developed herein for reinforced concrete frames designed for gravity load in low-seismic regions using probabilistic non-linear finite elem...
PREDICTION OF SEISMIC ENERGY-DISSIPATION IN SDOF SYSTEMS NURTUG, A; Sucuoğlu, Haluk (Wiley, 1995-09-01) A simple analytical procedure is developed for calculating the seismic energy dissipated by a linear SDOF system under an earthquake ground excitation. The ground excitation is specified by its pseudo-velocity spectra and effective duration whereas the SDOF system is defined by its natural period of vibration and viscous damping ratio. However, the derived relationship for the energy dissipation demand under an earthquake excitation is sensitive neither to the viscous damping ratio nor the ductility ratio w...
Comparison of loads in Turkish earthquake code with those computed statistically Firat, Fatih K.; Yücemen, Mehmet Semih (2015-05-01) In this study, earthquake loads are investigated statistically and compared with the nominal earthquake loads calculated according to the Turkish Earthquake Code, namely: "Specifications for Structures to be Built in Earthquake Areas". For this purpose, the "actual" mean load values estimated from statistical methods and the nominal load values computed according the Seismic Code are compared, with respect to some variations in the basic parameters, such as the importance factor, building height, site coeff...
PREDICTION OF SEISMIC ENERGY DISSIPATION IN SDOF SYSTEMS Nurtuğ, Alphan; Sucuoğlu, Haluk (1995-11-01) A simple analytical procedure is developed for calculating the seismic energy dissipated by a linear SDOF system under an earthquake ground excitation. The ground excitation is specified by its pseudo‐velocity spectra and effective duration whereas the SDOF system is defined by its natural period of vibration and viscous damping ratio. However, the derived relationship for the energy dissipation demand under an earthquake excitation is sensitive neither to the viscous damping ratio nor the ductility ratio w...
Prediction of input energy spectrum: attenuation models and velocity spectrum scaling Alici, F. S.; Sucuoğlu, Haluk (Wiley, 2016-10-25) Recent improvements in performance-based earthquake engineering require realistic description of seismic demands and accurate estimation of supplied capacities in terms of both forces and deformations. Energy based approaches have a significant advantage in performance assessment because excitation and response durations, accordingly energy absorption and dissipation characteristics, are directly considered whereas force and displacement-based procedures are based only on the maximum response parameters. En...
