The Effects of Material Properties on Building Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In recent earthquakes during the last two decades, severe damages have been occurred on the existing buildings in Turkey. Destructive earthquakes revealed that the existing building stock in urban regions is significantly vulnerable to seismic hazard ...

Pushover Analysis of Retrofitted Reinforced Concrete Buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
For the past decade or more, the structural engineering profession has been using the nonlinear static procedure (NSP) or pushover analysis. Modeling for such analysis requires the determination of nonlinear properties of each component in the structure,

Nonlinear Soil Spring Model Applied to Simplified Pushover Analysis of Soil-Pile Interaction

open access: yesJurnal Rekayasa Sipil, 2008
An approximate solution to the earthquake problem occurring in the seismic performance of pile-to-pile cap connections has been performed by applying a statically or cyclically lateral load to the superstructure, which is assumed to reflect the effect of the earthquake.

Modeling joints of moment-resisting steel frames for nonlinear static pushover analysis

open access: yes, 2022
The effect of the real behaviour of steel joints on the seismic response of steel moment-resisting frames has long been recognised as a crucial aspect in ensuring a safe structural response. Predicting the behaviour of steel joints under cyclic loading can be quite complex and impractical in engineering practice.

Development and validation of a general purpose linearization program for rigid aircraft models [PDF]

open access: yes
A FORTRAN program that provides the user with a powerful and flexible tool for the linearization of aircraft models is discussed. The program LINEAR numerically determines a linear systems model using nonlinear equations of motion and a user-supplied ...
