Inelastic seismic shear in multi-storey cantilever columns [PDF]
, 2011 Seismic shear magnification in the columns of multi-storey precast structures entering far into inelastic domain is addressed in the paper. Such structures consist of an assemblage of cantilever columns connected with ties.

Robustness of timber structures in seismic areas [PDF]
, 2011 Major similarities between robustness assessment and seismic design exist, and significant information can be brought from seismic design to robustness design. As will be discussed, although some methods and limitations considered in seismic design can

Analytical and Numerical Investigation of Overstrength Factors for Very Short Shear Links in EBFs
KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018 Shear links are key components in the Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) that act as a structural fuse by dissipating seismic energy during severe earthquakes. Specification AISC 341, which is frequently used in the seismic design of steel structures, prescribes a constant overstrength factor of 1.50 for shear links.

Seismic and Robustness Design of Steel Frame Buildings [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper, a design procedure that combines both progressive collapse design under column removal scenario and capacity design to produce a hierarchy of design strengths is presented.

A displacement-based design method for medium rise reinforced concrete walls [Un método de diseño basado en desplazamientos para muros de hormigon reforzado de mediana altura] [PDF]
, 2010 In displacementbased design methods some demand considerations, starting from the first mode of vibration, are usually made. However, some authors have called the attention on the importance of taking the higher modes into account, due to their influence

Analytical versus observational fragilities::the case of Pettino (L’Aquila) damage data database [PDF]
, 2014 A damage data database of 131 reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, collected after 2009 L’Aquila (Italy) earthquake, is employed for the evaluation of observational fragility curves.

Non-dissipative joints in seismic resistant building frames - Bolted beam-to-column joints [PDF]
, 2011 peer reviewedAccording to Eurocode 8, earthquake resistant steel building frames shall be designed following either the “low dissipative structural behaviour concept” or the “dissipative structural behaviour concept”.

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2008 AbstractDesign recommendations for steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems have recently been introduced into seismic provisions for steel buildings. Response modification (R), overstrength (Ωo), and displacement amplification (Cd) factors for SPSW systems presented in design codes were based on professional experience and judgment. A numerical study has

Typical collapse modes of confined masonry buildings under strong earthquake loads [PDF]
, 2011 Confined masonry structures are a widely applied structural system in many developing countries. During the past Wenchuan Earthquake in 2008, numerous confined masonry buildings collapsed, while many others suffered damage.
