Evaluation of seismic performance measures for MDOF RC structures subjected to simulated and real ground motions [PDF]
Nonlinear time history analyses of structures require full time series of ground motion records. For regions with sparse seismic networks or potential large earthquakes, ground motion simulation has gained more attention in recent years.

HOW ARE THE EQUIVALENT DAMPING RATIOS MODIFIED BY NONLINEAR ENGINEERING DEMAND PARAMETERS? [PDF]
When attempting to predict the seismic response of reinforced concrete (RC) structures , a trade-off has to be found out between a realistic representation of the dissipations through material behavior law and a numerically more efficient modeling with a controlled computational demand such as a Rayleigh-type damping model.

Effect of the viscous damping on the seismic response of Low-rise RC frame building
The equivalent viscous damping is a key parameter in the prediction of the maximum nonlinear response. Damping constitutes a major source of uncertainty in dynamic analysis. This paper studies the effect of using viscous damping, on the reduction of the

Effect on Diesel Engine Performance Parameters Using Hydrogen and Oxygen Produced on Demand
Hydrogen is seen as a future energy carrier since its chemical compounds make up a large part of the Earth’s surface. This study sought to analyze the impact related to the inclusion of hydrogen and oxygen gases produced on demand by an alkaline electrolyzer to the engine added directly through the fuel intake line.
