The Effect of Opening on Stiffness and Strength of Infilled Steel Frames [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2016
Infilled walls are the major non-structural elements which have significant effects on the seismic behavior of structures. The shape and strength of the brick elements are the main parameters affect the strength of the walls.

Modeling of Infilled Frames With Openings [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Construction and Building Technology Journal, 2012
This work concerns an assessment of the behavior of infilled frames. The feasibility of possible immediate implementation of some recent developments both in analysis and design of infilled frames for practical design is investigated.

Cyclic behavior of braced concrete frames: Experimental investigation and numerical simulation

open access: yesHBRC Journal, 2017
RC shear walls have been widely used as the main lateral-load resisting system in medium and high-rise buildings because of their inherent large lateral stiffness and load resistance.

Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Frames with Central Opening Masonry Infill under Lateral Reversed Cyclic Loading.

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
This paper will describe the seismic behaviour of masonry infilled RC frame with a central opening structure under reversed cyclic lateral loading. To achieve the purpose of this study, four 1/4-scale single story and single bay RC frame specimens were ...

Field responsive mechanical metamaterials. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Typically, mechanical metamaterial properties are programmed and set when the architecture is designed and constructed, and do not change in response to shifting environmental conditions or application requirements.

Validation of a simplified micromodel for analysis of infilled RC frames exposed to cyclic lateral loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An RC frame structure with masonry infill walls (‘‘framed-masonry’’) exposed to lateral loads acts as a composite structure. Numerical simulation of framed-masonry is difficult and generally unreliable due to many difficulties and uncertainties in its ...

Concept and development of a steel–bamboo SI (skeleton–infill) system: experimental and theoretical analysis

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2019
A steel–bamboo SI (skeleton–infill) system with steel frame as the skeleton and bamboo box as the filler is proposed, which realizes the requirements of building assembly and sustainable development.

Finite element analyses on hysteretic behavior of steel frames infilled with AAC masonry wall with circular-arc openings

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2023
The steel frame infilled with the autoclaved lightweight aerated concrete (AAC) masonry wall is widely applied in buildings. However, earthquake damage investigation has revealed that infill walls have a significant influence on the mechanical behaviors ...
