An efficient discrete optimization algorithm for performance-based design optimization of steel frames

Advances in Structural Engineering, 2020
Performance-based design optimization of steel frames, with element sections selected from standard sections, is a computationally intensive task. In this article, an efficient discrete optimization algorithm is proposed for performance-based design ...

Performance Based Practical Design

IABSE Reports, 2018
This paper presents the application of ‘Performance Based Practical Design’ (PBPD) methods to Danish infrastructure projects. PBPD is a decision-making process developed by the US Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and this paper adapts the process to the standards and regulations of Denmark, resulting in the development of a comparative tool for ...

Performance-based design of bridge structures under vehicle-induced fire accidents: Basic framework and a case study

Engineering structures, 2019
Although structural robustness under different fire scenarios has been widely studied in numerous engineering projects, performance-based method still needs to be further defined for better design of bridge structures under fire accidents.

Performance based design

Information Design Journal, 2008
This paper is about the application of professional information design practices that have grown out of research conducted by the Communication Research Institute (CRI), formerly the Communication Research Institute of Australia (CRIA), and others. In particular, it focuses on the role of testing in studio practice.

Performance-based design

Automation in Construction, 1999
Abstract Even before Louis Sullivan coined the phrase `Form Follows Function,' architectural researchers have sought, to no avail, a causal relationship between these two primary constituents of the building enterprise. This paper attempts to explain why this quest has been futile, and proposes a performance-based design paradigm, instead of the ...

A mixed GA-PSO-based approach for performance-based design optimization of 2D reinforced concrete special moment-resisting frames

Applied Soft Computing, 2019
A mixed genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization in conjunction with nonlinear static and dynamic analyses as a smart and simple approach is introduced for performance-based design optimization of two-dimensional (2D) reinforced concrete special

Performance-Based Seismic Design

2012
An approach is presented to structural optimization for performance-based design in earthquake engineering. The objective is the minimization of the total cost, including repairing damage produced by future earthquakes, and satisfying minimum target reliabilities in three performance levels (operational, life safety, and collapse).
