Assessment of FEMA356 nonlinear static procedure and modal pushover analysis for seismic evaluation of buildings [PDF]
, 2012 Nonlinear static analysis as an essential part of performance based design is now widely used especially at design offices because of its simplicity and ability to predict seismic demands on inelastic response of buildings.

Seismic isolation system of two hinged arch suspended-deck bridge: a case study on Kalikuto bridge - Indonesia [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 Seismic isolation systems are widely used in buildings, bridges, and industrial structures all over the world. The system is known for the efficiency to reduce earthquake demand and thus provide better seismic performance of the structures. In particular

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 ...

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

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

Műszaki Tudományos Közlemények, 2019 Abstract Earthquake zones cover a significant part of our earth, therefore, when planning and designing residential areas, factories, or other human establishments, professionals have to take into account the seismic hazard of that area. The current earthquake standard in Romania is based on the European code. This paper presents, beside
