Assessment of static and dynamic stresses horse-shoe tunnel with connecting gallery using finite element method: (as a case study) [PDF]

, 2018
This paper illustrates the use of MIDAS GTS NX to investigate the tunnel’s simulation in order to highlight the effect of static and dynamic load on the behaviour of tunnel to compare this response expressed in terms of displacement and stresses ...

Effects of openings on the seismic behavior and performance level of concrete shear walls

International Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences (IJEAS), 2019
In this study, the seismic behavior of the concrete shear wall considering the opening with different shapes and constant cross-section has been studied, and for this purpose, several shear walls are placed under the increasingly non-linear static ...

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Effects of joint geometric configurations on cyclic shear behavior of intermittent joints under constant normal stiffness conditions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The present manuscript explored the effects of joint configurations on the cyclic shear behavior of intermittent joints for the first time. The cyclic shear response, shear strength degradation, dilation characteristics evolution, frictional property, fractal dimension, and dissipative energy were further analyzed during shear cycles, which is crucial ...

Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]

, 2012
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of previous studies; remarkably, the response reduction factors were commonly obtained from ...

Effectiveness of friction dampers on the seismic behavior of high rise building VS shear wall system

Engineering Reports, 2019
The increase in population especially in third world countries demands taller, more flexible, and lighter buildings. Most of these countries are subjected to a high risk of earthquakes, which requires more control of building seismic response.
