Abstract










Two blast analysis
methods widely used are three-dimensional finite element (FE) and uncoupled
equivalent single degree of freedom (ESDOF) methods. The uncoupled equivalent ESDOF
method, which is the most common blast analysis method, provides considerable
advantages and simplicity in analysis and design stages. However, the inherent assumptions
and simplifications involved but especially neglecting members dynamic
interactions can significantly affect accuracy of analysis results. In this
study, blast performance of a prototype two-module steel blast-resistant
building is evaluated using uncoupled ESDOF and FE methods. The results are
compared to evaluate adequacy of uncoupled ESDOF method for blast analysis of
the structure.

Abstract










Patlama
yüklerine dayanıklı endüstriyel modüler çelik yapılar ön üretimli ve kolay taşınabiliyor
olmalarından dolayı patlama riskinin yüksek olduğu yerlerde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadırlar.
Bu yapıların sistem elemanlarının patlama yüklerinin etkisi için tasarımında ve
analizinde genelde basitleştirilmiş eşdeğer tek serbestlik dereceli yay (ESDOF)
modelleri kullanılır. Fakat bu yöntem, elemanların dinamik etkileşimini ihmal
eden bir yaklaşımdır. Bu çalışmada, iki modülden oluşan prototip binanın
patlama yükleri etkisinde yapısal elemanlarında oluşan hasar düzeyi ESDOF ve
dinamik etkileşimin ihmal edilmediği daha güvenilir sonuçlar veren sonlu
elamanlar yöntemleriyle belirlenmiştir. Sonuçlar, yapısal elemanlarda oluşan
patlama hasarlarının belirlenmesinde ESDOF yönteminin sonlu elemanlar yöntemine
oranla yeterliliğini belirlemek için kullanılmıştır.
