Failure Analysis of a Concrete Anchor under Severe Seismic Action
We explored the usage of a response modification factor and overstrength factor for analyzing brittle or ductile failure of anchor system. Parametric studies on the tension and shear behaviors of anchor systems were compared in terms of elastic and ...

Boundary condition effect on response modification factor of X-braced steel frames
Design of the structures to resist seismic force depends on the theory of dissipation in elastic energy that already exists in response modification factor “R-factor”.

Investigation of the effect of rigid connection type on the nonlinear behavior and over-strength factor of steel special moment frames [PDF]
After poor performance and brittle fracture of moment connections in the 1994 earthquake in Northridge, researchers proposed new connections to improve the behavior of steel moment frames.

An investigation on the effect of gusset plate connection rigidity on the seismic behavior of special concentrically braced frames [PDF]
Special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs) are commonly used to resist lateral loads in buildings. The bracing system sustains large deformations due to inelastic behavior in bracing members (buckling and yielding in tension).
