Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Accurate estimation of the damping ratio is critical for evaluating floor response spectra and equipment seismic demands in nuclear power plant structures. This study investigates the elastic damping ratio of reinforced concrete walls under limited damage states through shaking table tests and data‐driven modeling.

Simplified analysis of concentrically loaded reinforced concrete columns
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Reinforced concrete columns subjected to concentric and eccentric compression loads are typically treated in an identical manner, taking into account both the imperfect shape, creep, and the second order effects, as described for example in fib Model Code 2020 and Eurocode 2.
