Effect of Masonry Infill Constitutive Law on the Global Response of Infilled RC Buildings
Masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames represent a very common construction typology across the Mediterranean countries. The presence of infills substantially modifies the global seismic performances of buildings in terms of strength, stiffness, and

Behavior of masonry strengthened infilled reinforced concrete frames under in-plane load
Experimental tests have been carried out to study the behavior of different single story frames infilled with brick masonry under the in-plane lateral load influence. Three phases of frames were tested.

Retrofitting of Infilled Frame in Reinforced Concrete Structure
This research work aims to compare the seismic performance (in terms of lateral load strength, stiffness, ductility, response modification factor and performance levels) of full scale infilled frames before and after retrofitting. To evaluate the seismic

Seismic performance of four-storey masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame building
Masonry infilled reinforced concrete frames are a structural system commonly used for low-to-mid-rise buildings. Generally, this type of structure is modelled as an open frame neglecting the strength and stiffness contribution of the masonry infilled ...

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Finite Element Micro-Modeling of Infilled Frames
In this paper, a realistic criterion is proposed to describe the frame-infill separation, in order to better simulate the complicated behavior of infilled frames under lateral loads.

Seismic Performance Target and Fragility of Masonry Infilled RC Frames under In-Plane Loading
Masonry infilled RC frames are one of the most common structural forms, the damage of which, in earthquake events, usually cause serious losses. The determination of the seismic performance target is the key foundation of performance-based seismic ...

Experimental investigation on the ultimate strength of partially infilled and steel-braced reinforced concrete frames [PDF]
Infilled walls are normally considered as nonstructural elements. However, these walls are effective in carrying lateral loads. In this regard, an experimental investigation was planned and conducted to study the effect of braced and partially concrete ...

Strengthening of RC Frames With Infill Walls Using High Strength Lightweight Concrete Panels
This study proposed a practical seismic retrofit method for RC frames. For this purpose, a quasi-static loading was applied to 8 RC frames in finite element analysis software, Abaqus, and frames were pushed 45 mm laterally. High-strength fiber-reinforced
