| Popis: | The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the Pushover (NSP) and Modal Pushover (MPA) analysis methods in optimizing Special Truss Moment Frames (STMF) using island genetic algorithm. For this purpose, the optimization program is written and developed in Matlab software, and OpenSees software is used for structural analysis. The design variables of truss arrangement, cross section of members, truss height values and length of special zone of truss moment frame are considered. The constraints of the optimization problem are based on the rules and restrictions of AISC341-16. Case studies were performed on five frames of 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 stories with a story height of 3 meters and span length of 18 meters with the aim of minimizing weight and maximizing the response modification factor. The results of these analyses are compared with nonlinear dynamic time history analyses as the most accurate method available, which could be used to finally identify and introduce the most efficient method in these structures. The MPA method was able to show better performance than the NSP method in estimating the maximum response of the structure. Despite the excellent performance of this method, Evaluation of numerical results of this study indicates the non-economic nature of MPA method for low-rise structures, and the acceptable efficiency of this method for medium-height to high-rise structures. |
