In this study, the inelastic shear amplification and seismic performance of reinforced concrete shear walls (RCSWs) in western North America, designed according to Canadian seismic codes, were evaluated using nonlinear time history analyses (NLTHAs) and performance‐based design guidelines.

Plastic Behavior and Design Methodology for Curved Members in Seismic Applications
This study investigated the plastic behavior of curved members through static analysis and extensive parametric studies, focusing on initial elastic stiffness, plastic strength, slenderness effects, and section compactness. Estimation equations were developed and validated, contributing to the development of a connection design methodology that ...

Performance‐based design (PBD) is widely seen as a superior alternative to force‐based design (FBD), yet no standard procedure exists for its implementation. In contrast, performance‐based plastic design (PBPD) has emerged as a theoretically robust and user‐friendly design method.

The influence of the axial restraint on the overstrength of short links
Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) constitute a good structural solution located between Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) and Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) because they exhibit an adequate lateral stiffness joined with a high ductility capacity ...

This study addresses a critical gap in seismic design codes by evaluating the nonlinear performance of multi‐tiered eccentrically braced frames (MT‐EBFs) and offering practical recommendations for future provisions. MT‐EBFs, an advanced variation of conventional EBFs, incorporate multiple tiers of links and braces within a single story, making them ...

The development of efficient and scalable catalysts for polyether amine (PEA) synthesis via reductive amination remains an enduring industrial challenge. In this study, bimetallic NiCu alloys supported on amorphous alumina were rationally designed for the amination of low‐molecular‐weight polyether (PPG‐230).

Overstrength in timber engineering
This review paper explores the concepts of overstrength and ductility as fundamental components of capacity- based design with a focus on timber engineering. It addresses the necessity of implementing overstrength and capacity-based design principles for

A SHORT ANALYSIS OF THE OVERSTRENGTH FACTOR, ̃, ADDRESSING SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION EFFECTS
Currently, some design requirement documents, such as ASCE-7 Standard, still rely on design criteria based on the determination of forces to establish demands to provide adequate structural stiffness and strength. Acknowledging from past seismic events that structures can actually withstand forces of a greater magnitude than that for which they were ...
