"A comprehensive book focusing on the Force Analogy Method, a novel method for nonlinear dynamic analysis and simulationThis book focusses on the Force Analogy Method, a novel method for nonlinear dynamic analysis and simulation. A review of the current nonlinear analysis method for earthquake engineering will be summarized and explained. Additionally, how the force analogy method can be used in nonlinear static analysis will be discussed through several nonlinear static examples. The emphasis of this book is to extend and develop the force analogy method to performing dynamic analysis on structures under earthquake excitations, where the force analogy method is incorporated in the flexural element, axial element, shearing element and so on will be exhibited. Moreover, the geometric nonlinearity into nonlinear dynamic analysis algorithm based on the force analogy method is included. The application of the force analogy method in seismic design for buildings and structural control area is discussed and combined with practical engineering"-- Title page; Copyright page; Preface; About the Authors; 1 Introduction; 1.1 History of the Force Analogy Method; 1.2 Applications of the Force Analogy Method; 1.3 Background of the Force Analogy Method; References; 2 Nonlinear Static Analysis; 2.1 Plastic Rotation; 2.2 Force Analogy Method for Static Single-Degree-of-Freedom Systems; 2.3 Nonlinear Structural Analysis of Moment-Resisting Frames; 2.4 Force Analogy Method for Static Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Systems; 2.5 Nonlinear Static Examples; 2.6 Static Condensation; References; 3 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis 3.1 State Space Method for Linear Dynamic Analysis3.2 Dynamic Analysis with Material Nonlinearity; 3.3 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis with Static Condensation; 3.4 Nonlinear Dynamic Examples; References; 4 Flexural Member; 4.1 Bending and Shear Behaviors; 4.2 Inelastic Mechanisms of Flexural Members; 4.3 Nonlinear Static Analysis of Structures with Flexural Members; 4.4 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Structures with Flexural Members; References; 5 Axial Deformation Member; 5.1 Physical Theory Models for Axial Members; 5.2 Sliding Hinge Mechanisms; 5.3 Force Analogy Method for Static Axial Members 5.4 Force Analogy Method for Cycling Response Analysis of Axial Members5.5 Application of the Force Analogy Method in Concentrically Braced Frames; References; 6 Shear Member; 6.1 Physical Theory Models of Shear Members; 6.2 Local Plastic Mechanisms in the FAM; 6.3 Nonlinear Static Analysis of the Shear Wall Structures; 6.4 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of RC Frame-Shear Wall Structures; References; 7 Geometric Nonlinearity; 7.1 Classical Stiffness Matrices with Geometric Nonlinearity; 7.2 Stability Functions; 7.3 Force Analogy Method with Stability Functions 7.4 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis Using Stability Functions7.5 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis with Static Condensation Using Stability Functions; 7.6 Nonlinear Dynamic Examples; References; 8 Application of the Force Analogy Method in Modal Superposition; 8.1 Nonlinear Static Pushover Analysis in the FAM; 8.2 Modal Decomposition in the FAM; 8.3 Modal Response Summation; 8.4 Nonlinear Modal Superposition Method Example; References; 9 Application: Structural Vibration Control; 9.1 Passive Control Technique; 9.2 Application of the FAM in Active or Semi-Active Structural Control; References; Index Gang Li, Kevin Wong.
