Effects of Structural Integrity on Improving the Resistance to Dynamic Loads

open access: yesCommunications, 2007
The paper deals with the approaches to the dynamic response analysis when non-linear response of the structure including its partial damage is expected. This concerns the building and other structures executed near transport lines and possibly subjected ...

Analytical modelling of masonry-infilled steel frames

open access: yesTehnicki vjesnik - Technical Gazette, 2016
Masonry itself is a composite heterogeneous material whose structural behaviour is strongly affected by many influencing parameters with a wide range of possible values, construction procedures as well as care methods taken afterwards. When the masonry panel is added into the surrounding frame the complex interactive frame-infill system is established ...
