Weak‐Story Mitigation and Drift Redistribution in Moment‐Resisting Frames Using Stepping Rocking Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the seismic response of moment‐resisting frames retrofitted with a stepping rocking wall, with emphasis on weak‐story mitigation and residual drift reduction under both ordinary and pulse‐like ground motions. Nonlinear response‐history analyses are conducted on 9‐story and 20‐story SAC Los Angeles frames.

A numerical solution of parabolic quasi-variational inequality nonlinear using Newton-multigrid method [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Optimization
In this article, we apply three numerical methods to study the L∞-convergence of the Newton-multigrid method for parabolic quasi-variational inequalities with a nonlinear right-hand side.

Nonlinear structural dynamics via Newton and quasi-Newton methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper is an attempt to compare Newton and quasi-Newton methods in nonlinear structural dynamics. After a review of the classical iterative methods, several quasi-Newton updates are presented and tested.

Applied Element Modelling of Out‐Of‐Plane Instability in Boundary Elements of Thin RC Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent earthquakes in Chile (2010) and New Zealand (2011) caused extensive damage to buildings featuring reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls, with observed failure modes including out‐of‐plane instability of slender walls. This buckling‐type response under combined in‐plane and out‐of‐plane loading has also been documented in ...

Quasi-Newton methods for generalized equations

open access: yes, 1979
Newton's method is a well known and often applied technique for computing a zero of a nonlinear function. Situations arise in which it is undesirable to evaluate, at each iteration, the derivative appearing in the Newton iteration formula. In these cases,

Efficiency and Stability of a New Hybrid Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm with Quasi-Newton Updates and Higher-Order Methods

open access: yesMathematics
We propose the higher-order quasi-Newton (HOQN) method, a hybrid algorithm for unconstrained optimization that combines Newtonian predictors with higher-order correctors derived from vector extensions of the Traub, Chun, and Ostrowski methods, along with

Quasi-Newton methods for machine learning: forget the past, just sample

open access: yes, 2021
We present two sampled quasi-Newton methods (sampled LBFGS and sampled LSR1) for solving empirical risk minimization problems that arise in machine learning.

Stability Evaluation and Parametric Optimization of Coal‐Concrete Composite Bearing Systems Under Mine‐Water‐Induced Deterioration: Experiments and FEINN Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...
