Abstract
The goal of this paper is to inspect the influence of non-linear inertia on dynamic response of multi-story asymmetric buildings. In this study unlike conventional linear approach, the non-linear inertial terms are considered in the equations of motion. For considering non-linear inertia, the motion equations are derived in local rotary coordinates system. Also, the stiffness and damping parameters are defined in the rotary coordinates system. In the novel approach which is proposed in this paper, the motion equations are different with conventional linear approach. Numerical examples are presented to compare the response of the proposed model and conventional linear model. The modeled building response is derived under harmonic excitation. The results show that if non-linear inertia is considered, the dynamic response of asymmetric multi-story buildings may become different with conventional linear approach.
