Experimental and Analytical Study of Masonry Infill Reinforced Concrete Frames Retrofitted with Steel Braces [PDF]
, 2004 In the present work a seismic retrofitting technique is proposed for masonry infilled reinforced concrete frames based on the replacement of infill panels by K-bracing with vertical shear link.

Influence of openings, with and without confinement, on cyclic response of infilled R-C frames: an experimental study [PDF]
, 2013 This article presents the experimental results of a study on reinforced-concrete frames infilled with masonry with openings. The frames were designed according to current European codes. They were built in a scale 1:2.5 and infilled with masonry walls.

Masonry infilled frames – contemporary structural concepts
, 2021 Infilled frames were the focus of numerous experimental tests which have been executed to investigate the seismic behaviour of these systems, but the task remains challenging due to significantly pronounced nonlinear structural behaviour. The infill inevitably changes the “common” and well-known structural behaviour of bare steel and RC frames into a ...

Effects of Single and Multi Openings in Brick Infills on the Seismic Response of Infilled RC Frames
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Many researchers have performed a lot of studies of the seismic behavior reinforced concrete (RC) frame with masonry infill. They found that masonry infill affects the lateral strength, stiffness and ductility performance of the RC frame structures ...

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

Deployable 3D‐Printed Vascular Stent with Surface‐Catalysed Endogenous Nitric Oxide Generation
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A deployable 3D‐printed vascular stent was fabricated with surface‐catalyzed endogenous nitric oxide generation, representing a promising new direction for stent development. The stent can be remotely controlled by magnetic force in its compressed state and fully deployed at the target site using an untethered heat source, potentially eliminating the ...

Finite Element Micro-Modeling of Infilled Frames
Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2008 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 Evaluation of Advanced Reinforced Concrete Structures
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022 Many reinforced concrete frame buildings were developed and constructed in Coimbatore zone III before 2002. In 2002, the seismic code IS 1893 was updated. As a result, structures constructed earlier in 2002 do not meet the codal criterion.
