An Estimate of the Yield Displacement of Coupled Walls for Seismic Design
A formula to estimate the yield displacement observed in the pushover analysis of coupled wall lateral force-resisting systems is presented. The estimate is based on the results of an analytical study of coupled walls ranging from 8 to 20 stories in ...

Structural optimisation problem in support to building retrofitting decision [PDF]
Various analysis methods, either linear elastic or non-linear, static or dynamic, are available for the performance analysis of existing buildings. Despite its advantages, it must be admitted that non-linear time history analysis can frequently become ...

Seismic Assessment of Steel MRFs by Cyclic Pushover Analysis
Structural members subjected to strong earthquakes undergo stiffness and strength degradation. To predict accurately the seismic behaviour of structures, nonlinear static methods of analysis have been developed in scientific literature.

Pushover Analysis for Plan Irregular Building Structures [PDF]
Nonlinear static procedures (NSPs), also known as “pushover methods”, represent the most used tool in the professional practice for assessment of seismic performance of building structures. Most of the methods subscribed by major seismic codes for seismic analysis of new or existing buildings have been originally defined for simple regular structures.

Influence Of Lateral Load Distributions On Pushover Analysis Effectiveness
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 ...
