Mass proportional damping in nonlinear time-history analysis [PDF]
Rayleigh damping is the main form in direct integral method for structural nonlinear dynamic analysis under seismic wave. As stiffness proportional damping usually should be neglected for its significant influence on limit time increment, reasonable mass proportional damping becomes more important in actual engineering.

Time history nonlinear earthquake response analysis considering materials and geometrical nonlinearity [PDF]
Abstract A time history nonlinear earthquake response analysis method was proposed and applied to earthquake response prediction analysis for a Large Scale Seismic Test (LSST) Program in Hualien, Taiwan, in which a 1/4 scale model of a nuclear reactor containment structure was constructed on sandy gravel layer.

Nonlinear Time History Analysis of Flat Slab Structure With OpenSees Navigator
Structural systems that do not use a beam as the main component were first developed by Turner in 1906. This structural system is better known as a flat slab. The flat slab structure is supported by column heads and drop panels, or without drop panels, or without column heads.

Seismic damage assessment of subway station subjected to mainshock-aftershock sequences
In the previous seismic analyses of underground structures, only the peak structural response under the main earthquake is considered, but the damage mechanism of underground structures subjected to sequential ground motions has not been fully understood
