In order to protect museum display artworks, an artwork is taken as an example to study its inner force as well as motion status after it falls down and collides with the floor. Based on theoretical equations, simulation model for both artwork and floor is built. By simulation mises stress distribution as well as displacement, velocity and acceleration response curves for both artwork and floor are...
In order to study damage of ancient buildings by the Wenchuan earthquake in China on 12th ,may 2008, we took Da-Xiong Palace which is 189 km far away from the epicenter as an example for analysis. Columns of the palace inclined very much by the earthquake. We used time-history method to simulate response of the palace to find out the main reason for the large inclination. According to characters of...
Chinese ancient buildings are mainly made of wood. For thousands of years they have experienced sorts of earthquakes but remain intact. In this paper, we took Ying-Hua Palace in the Forbidden City in China as an example. By simulation methods we carried out analysis on dynamic character as well as a seismic capacity of the building. By introducing 2-node semi-rigid spring elements, we simulated tenon-moritse...
