Analytical methods to assess the collapse and damage of reinforced concrete walls
(National Information Centre of Earthquake Engineering, 2017)
During the great 2010, Chile earthquake, reinforced concrete (RC) buildings showed adequate performance. However, in some of them a particular damage pattern involving brittle failure of RC walls was observed in the lower ...

Effect of particle shape and fragmentation on the response of particle dampers
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2014-09)
A particle damper (PD) is a device that can attenuate mechanical vibrations thanks to the dissipative collisions between grains contained in a cavity attached to the vibrating structure. It has been recently suggested that, ...

Understanding the inelastic seismic behaviour of asymmetric-plan buildings
(1995)
Studied in this paper is the inelastic seismic behaviour of asymmetric-plan buildings using the histories of base shear and torque. The first step in understanding this behaviour is to construct the base shear and torque ...
Level of detail required to model special steel moment frames to evaluate floor accelerations in nonstructural components
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)
The floor acceleration response of special steel moment frames (SMF) subjected to earthquakes has been evaluated by multiple investigations. It has been demonstrated that peak floor accelerations and floor spectra, which ...
Modeling criteria of older non-ductile concrete frame–wall buildings.
The purpose of seismic provisions included in modern building codes is to obtain a satisfactory structural performance of buildings during earthquakes. However, in the United States and elsewhere, there are large inventories ...

Hysteretic energy spectrum and damage control
(JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD, 2001)
The inelastic response of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems subjected to earthquake motions is studied and a method to derive hysteretic energy dissipation spectra is proposed. The amount of energy dissipated through ...
