Nonlinear modeling of hysteretic systems with double hysteretic loops using position and acceleration information

摘要

This paper presents two new dynamic hysteresis models obtained from the Bouc–Wen model by incorporating position and acceleration information. On the one hand, the model employing position information is rate-independent and it is able to reproduce some kind of double hysteretic loops unable to be reproduced with the original Bouc–Wen model. On the other hand, the model employing acceleration information is insensitive to linear time-scale variations. Moreover, a classification of the BIBO-stable models has been derived for both position and acceleration cases. Double hysteretic loops have been experimentally reported in shape-memory alloys, reinforced concrete structures, wood structures and lightweight steel shear wall structures. The proposed hysteretic models represent a prominent use in the field of structural dynamics and earthquake engineering because they can capture the nonlinear dynamics of the materials and structures presented earlier when they are subjected to dynamic loads as earthquake excitations.
