The fact that the globe is constantly in motion indicates a
possible vibration on the earth. Earthquake, which occurs in the surface
vibrations that occur as a result of the spread of the energy of the fracture
(relative movement between the plates) in the earth's crust as a wave movement,
generates energy in the superstructure and substructures. This energy is likely to have some
advantages as well as disadvantages such as damaging structures and causing
loss of life. If the energy of the earthquake,
which acts as mechanical energy on the buildings, is converted into electrical
energy, it can be used to meet the electrical energy needs of people by
consuming natural resources. In addition,
earthquake energy, which is likely to be produced as electrical energy, is also
a possibility to provide the necessary power to the actuators used in the
operation of active semi-active or hybrid control systems, as well as energy
recovery and conversion. In this study, the
energy that can be generated by far-field earthquakes in a typical reinforced
concrete structure with certain parameters such as damping coefficients, soil
properties, and stiffness has been investigated by calculating. It has been determined that the reinforced concrete
structure can absorb some of the earthquake energy and it is possible that an
energy that can be used in the relevant parts of the building is formed.
