Losses from Recent Natural Disasters: 2011 Christchurch, New Zealand EQ
• Approximately 50% of the buildings in the central business district were declared unusable
• Nearly 1000 buildings in the central business district were subsequently demolished
• Estimated cost for rebuilding after earthquake is $40 billion (New Zealand Dollars), which amounts to approximately 20% of New Zealand’s GDP, without including economic losses associated with business downtime
Introduction
Ø EQs have caused significant loss of life, damage, downtime, with large economical impact
Ø Need for a built environment that enables the community to become resilient to the effects of natural disasters
Resilient Structural Systems• Resilient systems developed often using response modification
devices• Performance-based design procedures require experimental
validation, considering effects of:Ø Large-scaleØ Load-rate dependencyØ Realistic loadingØ Interaction effects among components of the system
Elastomeric dampers (Kontopanos 2006)
Nonlinear viscous fluid dampers (Kolay 2016)
Magneto-Rheological damper (G. Yang, 2001)

Introduction: RTHS Background
• Combines experimental and analytical substructures• Experimental substructure(s)
• Not well understood and modeled physically• Full scale component can be easily accommodated• Rate dependent devices (e.g., dampers, base-isolators) can be tested
• Analytical substructure(s)• Well understood and modeled numerically• Various substructures possible for a given experimental substructure• Damage can accumulate (not a problem) provided it can be modeled
• Advantages• Cost effective large-scale testing method• Comprehensive system response

Dynamic Servo Hydraulic Actuator Control
• Nonlinear actuator fluid and servo-valve dynamics
• Test specimen material and geometric nonlinearities
• Slop, misalignment, deformations in test setup
Can lead to variable amplitude error and time delay in servo-hydraulic system that can compromise the ability for target displacements of the experimental substructure to be achieved
Effect of time delay on real-time hybrid simulation• Inaccurate structural response• Delayed restoring force adds energy into the system (negative damping)• Can cause an instability in simulation important to negate the time delay effect in real-time hybrid simulation
Sources of Nonlinearity in Real-Time Hybrid Simulation
Servo Hydraulic Actuator ControlAdaptive Time Series (ATS) Compensator
Adaptive coefficients are optimally updated in real-time to minimize error between the specimen target and measured displacements using the least squares method to avoid instabilities in a RTHS

Unique features of ATS compensator
• No user-defined adaptive gains applicable for large-scale structures susceptible to damage (e.g., concrete structures)
ATS Compensator
• Negates both variable time delay and variable amplitude error response
• Time delay and amplitude response factor can be easily estimated from the identified values of the coefficients

Design of Structure with Nonlinear Viscous Dampers
q Design of prototype building (MRF,DBF)
— MRF is designed to satisfy strength requirement (ASCE 7-10)
— MRF is not designed to meet drift requirement in ASCE7-10, story drifts will be controlled by dampers in DBF
— DBF is designed to remain elastic under the design basis earthquake (DBE), 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years
q Story drift of 0.8% and 1.4% was predicted for the prototype building with three 600 kN dampers (Cα=696 kN-s/m and α=0.44) under DBE and MCE, respectively, (MCE has 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years)
