An Introduction to the Methodology of Earthquake Resistant Structures of Uniform Response
Structures of Uniform Response are special earthquake resistant frames in which members of similar groups such as beams, columns and braces of similar nature share the same demand-capacity ratios regardless of their location within the group.

Effect of Fast Loading on the Seismic Performance of SRUHSC Frame Structures
Due to the high compressive strength and durability of ultra-high-strength concrete, SRUHSC (steel-reinforced ultra-high-strength concrete) frame structures have been used extensively in super-high-rise buildings.

Experimental results of fatigue and sustained load tests on autoclaved aerated concrete
The fatigue strength of concrete is lower than its static strength. An attempt was made to accelerate the destabilisation process due to microcracking by the application of fatigue loads.

Shear Strength and Stiffness Degradation of Geomaterials in Cyclic Loading
Cyclic loading on civil structures can lead to a reduction of strength and stiffness in the loaded materials. The life span of many cyclically loaded structures such as wind turbines, high-speed train tracks and bridges strongly depends on the foundation.
