Seismic performance evaluation of Egyptian code-designed steel moment resisting frames

open access: yesHBRC Journal, 2018
Despite the fact that steel is a ductile material, the significant damage, during earthquake events, highlighted the need to thoroughly investigate the seismic performance of steel structures.

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).

Effect of Building Configuration on Overstrength Factor and Ductility Factor

open access: yes, 2021
It is important for the structure to be economical and still have a high level of life safety. The lateral force sustained by the structures during a large earthquake would be several times larger than the lateral force for which the structures are ...

Evaluation of seismic performance of X bracing systems equipped with flexural yielding dampers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017
The X-bracing system is one of the lateral loads bearing system. In X-bracing system’s elements, axial plastic hinges (compressive or tensile) will be formed instead of flexural hinges which are not capable to absorb high energy.

Optimization of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars for Reinforced Concrete Column Using Nonlinear Finite Element Algorithms

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
The ductility and strength of reinforced concrete (RC) columns could be noticeably improved by replacing steel bars with polymeric bars. Despite the previous research on RC columns, most of those studies focused only on the lateral load capacity of this ...

The BUILDING MATERIAL INFLUENCE ON RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR

open access: yes, 2022
During strong earthquakes the nonlinear performance of building structures is determined by the response reduction factor (R) which is a seismic design parameter.

Torsional ductility spectrum for predicting ductility distribution in simple asymmetric‐plan structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
An analytical procedure is developed for predicting the ductility demands in simple asymmetric-plan structures under earthquake ground motions. The procedure governs regular structures dominated by the lower vibration modes where inelastic response ...

Effect of irregularity on seismic design parameters of RC-infilled structures

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering, 2021
A four-storey reinforced concrete (RC) building is seismically evaluated with the incorporation of different irregularities. Three model systems have been considered, i.e., model I: (RC-infilled regular frame in X and Y direction), model II: (RC-infilled

Characteristics of Jerk Response Spectra for Elastic and Inelastic Systems

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2015
Jerk is the time rate of acceleration and mainly represents the nonstationary component in high frequency band of the earthquake wave. The study on jerk and its response spectra can enhance the recognition of the nonstationary ground motion.
