Probabilistic Evaluation of Seismic Performance of Steel Buildings with Torsional Irregularities in Plan and Soft Story under Mainshock-Aftershock Sequence

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2023
Due to the tectonic plate movement, numerous aftershocks may occur following an earthquake. There are several real mainshock-aftershock ground motion records in which the peak ground acceleration of aftershock is greater than that of the mainshock ...

Effect of Spacing and Slenderness Ratio of Piles on the Seismic Behavior of Building Frames

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The general assumption of a rigid base at the bottom of building structures during analysis and design underestimates the seismic response. Building structures resting on loose sand and soft clayey soil are vulnerable to earthquake forces.

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.
