In his ase, he inpu enery impared o he sruure by an earhquake ends o be redued due o he effe of basema uplif. Keywords: Bride Pier, Sress Reduion Effe, Basema Uplif, aro-elemen, Enery 1. INRODUION As desin mehods shif o performane-based desin, i beomes more imporan o auraely esimae he response of supersruures aompanied by foundaion roaion and basema uplif. Basema uplif is reporedly indued een by weak and/or medium round moions [1], hene, i is neessary o inorporae he effe of basema uplif ino a desin ode. Hayashi [] assessed slihly damaed buildins sandin on he mos seerely damaed area durin he 1995 Hyooken-Nanbu Earhquake. By usin numerial simulaion, he has sudied damae reduion effe due o basema uplif of buildins whih were subjeed o sron round moions, and showed ha he damae reduion effe someimes beomes remarkable dependin on sruural parameers and inpu moions. he finie elemen model was used in his analysis reain soil as a linear or equialen linear medium. Iwashia e al. [3] examined he effe of uplif a pile head on sruural response. hey disussed he inpu enery impared o sruures by an earhquake. hey hae reaed he round as a kind of sprin and assumed ha he sprin doesn resis ensile fore in order o ake he effe of uplif ino aoun. he auhors hae sudied he reduion effe of a seion fore indued on sruures due o basema uplif and soil yieldin by he use of a maroelemen model and showed ha he deree of base shear reduion depends on he frequeny haraerisis of inpu moions relaie o he sysem [4]. his paper sudies he reduion effe of a seion fore indued in he sruure due o basema uplif and soil yieldin from a iewpoin of enery by he use of a maro-elemen model for foundaions plaed on sands. A foundaion-soil sysem is modeled as four ases; (1) fixed base, () elasi soil, (3) elasi soil wih basema uplif and (4) elaso-plasi soil wih basema uplif. ime hisories wih differen frequeny haraerisis are onsidered as inpu moions in he model.. ARO-ELEEN ODEL In his sudy, a maro-elemen model deeloped by Nakaani e al. [5] is employed o sudy sress reduion effe of sruures due o basema uplif and soil yieldin. A brief oeriew is desribed in his seion. Deails an be referred o in Shirao e al.

In order o relae size of he yield surfae and inremenal displaemens, he hardenin rule and flow rule are required. As for he hardenin rule, isoropi hardenin, whih defines similar bearin apaiy surfae and yield surfae, is assumed. he hardenin funion is expressed by R 1 exp Vm (13) pl where R is iniial radien of he V ure.

A supersruure was modeled by a lumped mass and Bernoulli-Euler beam. he oal derees of freedom of he sysem were six; onsisin of hree derees of lumped mass and hree derees of he maro-elemen. A foundaionsoil sysem is modeled as four ases; (1) fixed base, () elasi soil, (3) elasi soil wih basema uplif and (4) elaso-plasi soil wih basema uplif. he dampin oeffiien of he beam elemen was assumed o be proporional o he elemen siffness marix and 5% of he dampin oeffiien was aken ino aoun. Frequeny dependene of elasi omplianes of he maro-elemen was inored. Dampin oeffiiens of he maroelemen orrespondin o he erial, ranslaional, and rokin omponen were se based on Gazeas [7].

Owin o radiaion dampin effe, base shear of he elasi soil model was sinifianly redued. Furhermore, basema uplif effe works o drasially redue he base shear of he sruure in his ase. 5.
