Abstract

AbstractThe spatial and traveling wave effects on a structure with an energy dissipation system can be conveniently considered using the random vibration method. In this study, the pseudo‐excitation method is introduced to perform random spatial seismic response analysis of such a structure considering different damper arrangements. The analysis results show the effects of nonproportional damping characteristics due to these arrangements, and the nonproportional damping characteristic index can estimate the strength of these characteristics. Moreover, the virtual excitation method can be used to determine the weak parts of the structure. The effect of the traveling wave on the energy dissipation system and damping structure is relatively low. The response results of the structure in the case of multipoint consistent excitation obtained by the complex vibration decomposition reaction spectrum method are compared. The method accounts for the effects of nonproportional damping and vibration velocity. Accurate time history results can be obtained by complex vibration decomposition time history analysis.
