Seismic Response and Recentering Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Frames: A Parametric Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The inelastic response of reinforced concrete (RC) frames under seismic loading is influenced by mechanical and geometrical properties and by the reinforcement arrangement of the beam–column members.

Model-independent rate control for intra-coding based on piecewise linear approximations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper proposes a rate control (RC) algorithm for intra-coded sequences (I-frames) within the context of block-based predictive transform coding that departs from using trained models to approximate the rate-distortion (R-D) characteristics of the ...

Testing of Damaged Single-Bay Reinforced Concrete Frames Strengthened with Masonry Infill Walls

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Despite achieving consensus and having current knowledge on the behaviour and contribution of masonry infill walls, there remain unresolved issues regarding their nonlinear behaviour as a method for strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) frames ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Progressive Collapse Resistance of Post-tensioned Precast Concrete Beam-Column Sub-assemblages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, four 1/2 scaled precast concrete (PC) beam-column sub-assemblages with high performance connection were tested under push-down loading procedure to study the load resisting mechanism of PC frames subjected to different column removal ...

Influence of Masonry Infill on Seismic Design Factors of Reinforced-Concrete Buildings

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
Infill walls are the most common separator panels in typical reinforced-concrete (RC) frame structures. It is crucial to investigate the influence of the infill walls on the earthquake behavior of RC frames.

Seismic Performance Analysis of RC Frames with ECC Short Columns Based on the IDA Method

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is a high-performance composite material with greater shear deformation and shear strength than normal concrete, which has been proposed for use as a shear component in structures.

Seismic design of reinforced concrete frames for minimum embodied CO2 emissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Optimum structural design of reinforced concrete (RC) frames has been the focus of extensive research. Typically, previous studies set economic cost as the main design objective despite the fact that RC structures are major contributors of CO2 emissions.

Micro-Scale Experimental Approach for the Seismic Performance Evaluation of RC Frames with Improper Lap Splices

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2023
Reinforced concrete (RC) frames are an integral part of modern construction as they resist both gravity and lateral loads in beams and columns. However, the construction methodologies of RC frames are vulnerable to non-engineering defects, particularly ...

Experimental investigation on the ultimate strength of partially infilled and steel-braced reinforced concrete frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Infilled walls are normally considered as nonstructural elements. However, these walls are effective in carrying lateral loads. In this regard, an experimental investigation was planned and conducted to study the effect of braced and partially concrete ...

Effect of Joint Flexibility on Seismic Performance of a Reinforced Concrete Ductile Moment-Resisting Frame

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
Currently, the seismic collapse risk of modern code-conforming reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures is often evaluated without considering the behavior of the beam-column (BC) joints since joints designed to meet modern concrete design codes are ...
