TY - JOUR TI - Performance comparisons of triple friction pendulum bearings with different sliding surface properties AB - In this study the time history analyses are carried out three dimensionally for a simple five-story concrete structure seismically isolated incorporating triple friction pendulum bearings with different sliding surface properties with the help of the ABAQUS finite element program. The altering friction surface properties are friction coefficient and radius of curvature. The performances of the various isolators are compared with each other as well as with those of a fixed based structure. For this purpose, maximum relative story displacements, story accelerations and column base shear forces are investigated as seismic reactions. According to the analysis results it can be stated that the seismic reactions of isolated structures are significantly reduced when compared to those of the fixed supported structure. Additionally, when triple friction pendulum bearing isolators with different friction coefficients and friction surface radii are compared, it can be observed that increasing the friction coefficient increases the reactions of the structure while increasing the friction surface radii decreases the reactions AU - Zulfakar, Muhamad AU - Karakaş, Ali DO - 10.31462/jseam.2021.03151162 PY - 2021 JO - Journal of Structural Engineering & Applied Mechanics (Online) VL - 4 IS - 3 SN - 2630-5763 SP - 151 EP - 162 DB - TRDizin UR - http://search/yayin/detay/506358 ER -
