Öğe Multi-objective optimal sizing of energy dissipative steel cushions for longitudinal loading(Springer, 2021) Gullu, Ahmet; Korpeoglu, Seda Goktepe; Selek Kilicarslan, Elif SilaContemporary approach in earthquake engineering tends to dissipate some part of seismic energy by additional fuses. Owing to its easy-to-produce and plug-and-play characteristics, energy dissipative steel cushion (SC) can be a prominent candidate to serve this purpose. Since its closed form design equations are already available in the literature, seismic performance and energy dissipative characteristics of SC might be improved by optimal sizing. Hence, distinct mathematical optimization techniques, namely sequential quadratic programming, gradient-based method, and Lagrange multiplier method, are employed. Results of the optimization techniques are evaluated through experimentally verified finite element analyses. Consequently, some geometric dimension ratios are provided for the optimal sizing of SCs. Comparisons between the optimization studies yielded that the gradient-based method requires fewer function evaluations to converge while the Lagrange multiplier method with a Hessian produces more accurate results.Öğe Simultaneous Multi-Objective Optimal Sizing of Energy Dissipative Steel Cushions for Transversal Loading(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2022) Gullu, Ahmet; Korpeoglu, Seda GoktepeCurrent practice in structural engineering requires dissipating some part of seismic energy by sacrificial elements rather than structural members and/or joints. As an easy-to-produce and plug-and-play damper with stable hysteretic loops and large displacement capacity, steel cushion (SC) is a significant device to improve the seismic performance of the structures. It was stated in the previous studies that SC is less effective in the transversal direction. Hence, the efficiency of the damper is improved by optimal sizing through intelligent optimization techniques in this study. The complex optimization problem could be converted to a relatively simple mathematical problem since closed-form equations of the damper are exist in the literature. The optimal sizing problem was solved using two distinct methods namely the 6-constraint method and the elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). The employed optimization methods were verified by each other as almost similar geometric ratios were obtained. The efficiency of the optimization is evaluated through finite element analysis (PEA). It is shown that the optimally sized SC is superior in terms of energy dissipation.
