Abstract

In most current seismic codes, the stiffness and strength of seismic members are considered to be independent, so that a change in the strength of the members does not result in a change in the stiffness of the members. Recent studies show that these parameters are interdependent. Therefore, the way these parameters are calculated and the arrangement of centers of mass, stiffness and strength can be effective in determining the seismic response. In this research, buildings with different levels of normalized yield eccentricity (ed/A) were designed according to the ASCE/SEI 07-22 seismic code (Code Design models) and compared with the Balance-25% and Symmetric Strength models. The results of the nonlinear static analysis and incremental dynamic analysis showed that the average spectral acceleration at the level of collapse in the Balance-25% and Symmetric Strength models increased by approximately 18% compared to the Code Design model. Therefore, these models are safer than the Code Design model. In addition, the average of the peak rotation of floors and the maximum inter-story drift at the collapse level in the Balance-25% and Symmetric Strength models has decreased by 100% and 12% respectively compared to the Code Design model. Therefore, the Code Design model had the lowest and the Balance-25% and Symmetric Strength models had the highest dynamic seismic performance.

Abstract

In determining the water that can be allocated for different uses, including agriculture (as the main consumer), the most important step in this era is the proper management of groundwater resources. The observance of water consumption within the limit of allocated water ensures that the consequences of the exploitation of groundwater resources and the sustainability of development are guaranteed, and operators use technological methods to increase the efficiency of using water resources for more production in proportion to the amount tend to available water. In this article, first, the method of calculating the water allocated to the agricultural sector in the country has been studied and criticized. In this study, it was found that in the formula for calculating the current allocated water, the component of agricultural return water as an effective parameter causes a huge error in the calculation of allocated water. Then, a new formula for the calculation of allocated water was proposed, and an attempt was made to correct and apply the effect of the input component of agricultural return water on the amount of allocated water based on the calculation of allocated water in the new proposed method, taking into account the aquifer capacity based on the parameters of the water resources balance.
