Prediction of Transverse Reinforcement of RC Columns Using Machine Learning Techniques
Transverse reinforcement of reinforced concrete (RC) columns contributes greatly to the ductility deformation capacity of RC structures. The existing models to predict the amount of transverse reinforcement required are all empirical models with low ...

Analytical modeling of reinforced concrete columns subjected to bidirectional shear [PDF]
Under general seismic loading, reinforced concrete columns may be subjected to lateral loads in more than one direction. Available experimental data on columns subjected to bidirectional forces indicate that higher levels of damage and a higher loss of ...

Effective linear damping and stiffness coefficients of nonlinear systems for design spectrum based analysis [PDF]
A stochastic approach for obtaining reliable estimates of the peak response of nonlinear systems to excitations specified via a design seismic spectrum is proposed. This is achieved in an efficient manner without resorting to numerical integration of the

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Evaluating the Adequacy of Ductility Requirements of Seismic Design Codes [PDF]
Seismic design philosophy is based on this principal that destructive earthquakes have a low probability of occurrence, and it is not economical to design structures to perform elastically during such rare events.
