EQUIVALENT FORCE CONTROL SUBSTRUCTURE PSEUDO-DYNAMIC EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON A MDOF MODEL

based on the full-scale three-storey frame-supported reinforced concrete short-leg masonry shear wall substructure test model, this paper applied the equivalent force control(EFC) method to the substructure pseudo-dynamic test for the physical substructure model, a multi-degree of freedom(MDOF) structural system. The feasibility of the EFC method for the physical substructure model, a MDOF system have been demonstrated with the numerical simulations and the testing results of the full-scale test model.
