On the fundamental period of infilled RC frame buildings [PDF]
Structural Engineering and Mechanics, 2015 This paper investigates the fundamental period of vibration of RC buildings by means of finite element macro-modelling and modal eigenvalue analysis. As a base study, a number of 14-storey RC buildings have been considered \"according to code designed\" and \"according to code non-designed\". Several parameters have been studied including the number of

Influence of Infill Wall Configuration on Failure Modes of RC Frames
Shock and Vibration, 2018 An improper configuration of masonry infill walls in RC frame may lead to short column effect on the columns, which is harmful to the seismic behavior of the structure.

Numerical model of a masonry infilled RC frame
, 2021 The response of reinforced concrete frame structures with a masonry infill to seismic action can be represented by models of different levels of complexity such as: detailed and simplified micromodels or macromodels. Macromodels have the lowest requirement for the input of material properties and allow the shortest computational time without losing the

Numerical analysis of reinforced concrete frame buildings with decoupled infill walls [PDF]
Građevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije, 2020 Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings with masonry infill walls are widely used in many countries all over the world. Although infills are considered as non-structural elements, they significantly change dynamic characteristics of RC frame structures during

An investigation on behavior of RC frames with non-interacting infill wall
Engineering Structures, 2021 Abstract Infill walls, which are generally assumed as dead loads in building design, affect the lateral resistance, stiffness, and energy consumption of the frames. Investigations conducted after earthquakes show that the infill walls, whose effects are neglected in the design, can change the earthquake behavior of the structure and cause unforeseen ...

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1694-1709, 10 July 2026.ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit
