Seismic Fragility Assessment of SMRFs Equipped with TMD Considering Cyclic Deterioration of Members and Nonlinear Geometry

This paper presents seismic fragility curves to assess the effect of far-field ground motions on the behavior of high-rise steel moment resisting frame (SMRF) structures equipped with Tuned Mass Damper, considering the cyclic deterioration of members and P-Delta effect in the nonlinear region. For this purpose, three 8-, 20-, and 30-story SMRF structures are selected, 44 earthquake record sets are extracted from the FEMA P-695, Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) is operated, and four structural damage states are considered through the framework of HAZUS, including slight, moderate, extensive, and complete. Maximum structural inter-story drift and floor acceleration are employed to quantify the damage states, and spectral acceleration is used as the intensity measure. Results show that the Tuned Mass Damper can reduce the probability of damage under earthquake excitation in all damage states for both structural and non-structural elements. The decline varies from 4.0% to 20.0%, depending on the ground motion intensity level, based on engineering demand parameters. Moreover, it is clear that nonlinear properties and component deterioration under cyclic excitation can affect structural response in all damage states, which concerns the obtained curves.
