IMPAβ: Incremental Modal Pushover Analysis for Bridges
In the present study, the incremental modal pushover analysis (IMPA), a pushover-based approach already proposed and applied to buildings by the same authors, was revised and proposed for bridges (IMPAβ). Pushover analysis considers the effects of higher

Resonant response functions for nonlinear oscillators with polynomial type nonlinearities [PDF]
In this paper we consider the steady-state response of forced, damped, weakly nonlinear oscillators with polynomial type nonlinearities. In particular we define general expressions that can be used to compute resonant response functions which define the ...

Geometrically nonlinear theory of thin-walled composite box beams using shear-deformable beam theory [PDF]
A general geometrically nonlinear model for thin-walled composite space beams with arbitrary lay-ups under various types of loadings is presented. This model is based on the first-order shear deformable beam theory, and accounts for all the structural ...
