Investigation of the Distribution of Cumulative Ductility Demand Parameter in Various Stories of Buckling Restrained Braced Frames [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2019
Attributable to the fact that the buckling-restrained brace core yields both in tension and compression, it can absorb energy and exhibit high ductility rendering it proper in order to tolerate earthquick loads..

Preliminary analytical study on seismic ductility demand of wood diaphragms [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Structural Engineering, 2016
A new seismic design methodology is being proposed for floor diaphragms for various types of construction materials including wood diaphragms. The new design methodology introduces a design acceleration to keep diaphragm elastic under design-basis earthquake using a mode superposition method.

Numerical safety analysis of steel moment frame under seismic dynamic loads [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی عمران شریف, 2021
According to the basic theorems of plastic analysis of structures, increasing the strength or stiffness of a part of the structure does not weaken it under a specific static load.

Nonlinear Static Response of Low-Moderate Ductile Chevron Concentrically Braced Frames Designed According to Eurocode 8

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Steel frames equipped with chevron bracing (Λ-CBF) are usually less ductile than other steel systems. Therefore, in many cases, it can be convenient to design Λ-CBF to exploit their stiffness and resistance to enforce a pseudo-elastic seismic response of

A Superelastic Retrofitting Method for Mitigating the Effects of Seismic Excitations on Irregular Bridges [PDF]

open access: yesCivil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2018
Irregularities in bridge pier stiffness concentrate the ductility demand on short piers; while not operating on the longer and more flexible ones. The existence of non-uniform, ductility demand distribution in bridges significantly influences seismic ...

Accounting for Resilience in the Selection of R Factors for a RC Unsymmetrical Building

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Several design codes consider the non-linear response of a building by using one of the most important seismic parameters, called the response reduction factor (R).

Effects of Structural and Seismic Factors on the Constant-Strength Ductility Spectra Based on NGA-West2 Database

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2020
The constant-strength ductility spectrum is a nonlinear response spectrum that is commonly used to establish the demand curve of the seismic response during performance-based seismic design. It is affected by many factors.
