Abstract
Many researchers have studied building pounding to calculate the dissipated energy and the impact force between two buildings during earthquake. In this paper, a new equation is proposed to measure the impact force and energy dissipation. The results based on the proposed equation are compared with results of the available equations. Using a suggested link element, a new formula is presented to calculate the impact force and energy dissipation. In order to evaluate the results of dissipated energy, a new relation between CR and impact velocity is also suggested. Since there is a need to have a reference curve to select impact velocity based on coefficient of restitution, several impact velocities and CRs were evaluated. By using the latter curve, results could be evaluated. A new equation of motion is assumed to select the best impact velocity and coefficient of restitution. Finally, based on coefficient of restitution and by using a steady-state response of single degree of freedom system due to the external force, a new equation of motion is suggested to calculate impact damping ratio.
