Development and Validation of a Seismic Design Method for Anchored Retaining Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retaining walls with multiple anchor levels are widely used as permanent excavation support systems for the construction of linear infrastructures. Yet, their seismic behaviour remains largely unexplored, and current design approaches rely on conventional procedures that do not adequately reflect the actual dynamic response of these systems ...

Predicting Maximum and Cumulative Response of A Base-isolated Building Using Pushover Analysis

Buildings, 2020
The evaluation of the maximum and cumulative response is an important issue for the seismic design of new base-isolated buildings. This study predicts the maximum and cumulative response of a 14-story reinforced concrete base-isolated building using a ...

A Parametric Computational Framework for Modeling and Seismic Design of Post‐Tensioned Mass Timber Rocking Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber (PT‐CLT) rocking walls offer a compelling seismic system combining self‐centering behavior with energy dissipation. However, progress in their performance assessment and design has been limited by the lack of a comprehensive parametric modeling tool, as exists for steel or reinforced concrete systems. This

Numerical Simulations of 5‐Story Building Using Wood Light‐Frame Shear Walls and Post‐Tensioned Cross‐Laminated Timber Rocking Wall Dual Systems

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the seismic performance of a five‐story prototype building using different configurations of a dual lateral force‐resisting system (LFRS) combining post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber rocking walls (PT‐CLT‐RW) with conventional wood light‐frame shear walls (LiFS).

Application of the Incremental Modal Pushover Analysis to Bridges Subjected to Near-Fault Ground Motions

Applied Sciences, 2020
Near-fault events can cause severe damage to civil structures, including bridges. Many studies have demonstrated that the seismic assessment is not straightforward.

Influence Of Lateral Load Distributions On Pushover Analysis Effectiveness

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
The effectiveness of two simple load distributions for pushover analysis recently proposed by the authors is investigated through a comparative study, involving static and dynamic analyses of seismic response of eccentrically braced frames. It is shown that in the upper floors only multimodal pushover procedures provide results close to the dynamic ...

Deteriorated Hysteresis Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns With Lap‐Spliced Circular Hoop Reinforcement

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Five lap‐spliced circular hoop (CH) concrete bridge columns, designed in accordance with the current Japanese bridge design code and Taiwan bridge design practice, were tested in this study to investigate the effects of longitudinal reinforcement and aspect ratios on deteriorated hysteresis behavior.

An Introduction To Pushover Analysis

, 2018
Performance - based seismic design,which is a relatively new concept,came into existence as a means to ascertain the likely performance of an existing building structure during an eart hquake. However,this approach is equally applicable to new buildings being designed. Herein is explained why there is a growing consensus among designers to follow this
