An analytical and numerical prediction for ductility demand on steel beam-to-column connections in fire [PDF]
In this paper a simplified analytical method to assess the ductility demand on connections according to fire resistance requirements is developed on the basis of fundamental structural mechanics principles.

Improved procedure for determining the ductility of buildings under seismic loads [PDF]
Displacement ductility is a parameter that characterizes the seismic response of structures. Moreover, displacement ductility can be used in order to determine whether a structural design, performed according to a specific seismic code or not, may ...

Soil Structure Interaction Effects on Hysteretic Energy Demand for Stiffness Degrading Systems Built on Flexible Soil Sites [PDF]
This paper aims to investigate the effect of soil-structure interaction on plastic energy demand spectra directly derived from the energy-balance equations of soil-shallow-foundation structure with respect to an ensemble of far-field strong ground ...

Local versus Global Ductility Demands in Simple Bridges
This paper addresses the inelastic dynamic response of simply supported bridges to ground motion in their transverse direction. The effect of the relative substructure-superstructure flexibility on the inelastic response of bridges was studied for symmetric spans.

An efficient methodology to estimate probabilistic seismic damage curves [PDF]
The incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a powerful methodology that can be easily extended for calculating probabilistic seismic damage curves. These curves are metadata to assess the seismic risk of structures.
