Behaviour Factor of Ductile Code-Designed Reinforced Concrete Frames
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 The current generation of seismic design codes is based on a linear elastic force-based approach that includes the nonlinear response of the structure implicitly through a response modification factor (named reduction factor R in American codes or ...

THE EFFECT OF BEHAVIOUR FACTOR ON THE SEISMIC PERFORMANCE OF LOW-RISE AND HIGH-RISE RC BUILDINGS [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017 This study investigates the performance of RC buildings designed according to Eurocode 8. Two families of RC buildings (i.e., 3 storey and 18 storey) are investigated using nonlinear static or push over analysis (POA).

Effects of Glass and Steel Fibers on Fresh and Hardened Properties of Self-Compacting Concrete
U.Porto Journal of Engineering, 2022 Self-compacting concrete (SCC) has been versatile over compaction of concrete by manual or mechanical vibrators. Compaction of concrete by traditional methods generates delays and imparts additional costs.

Analytical Fragility Curves of Pile Foundations with Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)
Geosciences, 2021 Pile foundations is a well-studied technique with many applications and its benefits on structures have been widely studied in the literature. In particular, the mutual effects of pile flexibility and soil deformability may significantly modify the ...

A New Approach for Determining the Curvature Ductility of Reinforced Concrete Beams
Slovak Journal of Civil Engineering, 2022 This paper presents a numerical parametric study of the moment-curvature and curvature ductility of doubly-reinforced beams with different parameters. The effects of the strength of the concrete and the amount of the reinforcement, including the tensile ...

RESPONSE MODIFICATION FACTOR OF SPECIAL STEEL TRUSS MOMENT FRAMES [PDF]
مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2013 In recent decades the use of special truss moment frames has been developed as relatively new steel frame systems in high seismic zones. These frames dissipate the seismic energy through the specific ductile parts that are located near the middle of the ...

Probabilistic Seismic Demand Assessment of Steel Moment Resisting Frames Isolated by LRB [PDF]
Numerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2017 Seismic isolation is an effective approach used in controlling the seismic responses and retrofitting of structures. The construction and installation of such systems are expanded nowadays due to modern improvements in technology.

Identifying microscopic factors that influence ductility in disordered solids
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2023 There are empirical strategies for tuning the degree of strain localization in disordered solids, but they are system-specific and no theoretical framework explains their effectiveness or limitations. Here, we study three model disordered solids: a simulated atomic glass, an experimental granular packing, and a simulated polymer glass.
