A NEW LOAD PATTERN FOR PUSHOVER ANALYSIS OF BASE-ISOLATED STRUCTURES [PDF]
مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2015 In this paper, a new load pattern is proposed for pushover analysis of base isolated structures. Accuracy of the proposed load pattern and other conventional load patterns is evaluated through two sample structures under two ensembles of earthquake ...

Improved procedure for determining the ductility of buildings under seismic loads [PDF]
, 2018 Displacement ductility is a parameter that characterizes the seismic response of structures. Moreover, displacement ductility can be used in order to determine whether a structural design, performed according to a specific seismic code or not, may ...

Response mechanism of soil-immersed tunnel based on static pushover model tests
Yantu gongcheng xuebaoThe static pushover tests on the underground structures mainly concentrate on consistent deformation of soils, with scarcely any studies considering soil dislocation. A regional pushover method is proposed.
