Nonlinear time-history earthquake analysis for steel frames [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
This study presents a simple, efficient, accurate method for nonlinear time-history earthquake analysis of spatial steel frames. The proposed new fiber plastic hinge method simulating only one element for each member captures the time-history dynamic behavior of steel frames as accurately as sophisticated plastic zone methods.

Conceptualizing Time Preference: A Life-History Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Psychology, 2014
Life-history theory (LHT) has drawn upon the concept of “time preference” as a psychological mechanism for the development of fast and slow strategies. However, the conceptual and empirical nature of this mechanism is ill-defined. This study compared four traits commonly used as measures of “time preference” (impulsivity, sensation seeking, future ...

Evaluation of Intermediate Reinforced Concrete Moment Frame Subjected to Truck Collision [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2022
In this study, the progressive collapse of reinforced concrete structures due to vehicle collision to the columns of the ground floor was modeled and examined. For this purpose, a four-story reinforced concrete building with the intermediate moment frame

Investigations on the Dynamic Response of Adjacent Buildings Connected by Viscous Dampers

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
This paper investigates the seismic performance of two adjacent buildings connected by viscous dampers. Three types of damper placement are discussed, including installing dampers within a single building, connecting two buildings at the same floor level,

Peak adjustment method of input seismic wave in time history analysis of long-span cable-stayed bridge

open access: yes地震科学进展, 2023
The peak adjustment of seismic wave is often realized by the method based on the peak ground acceleration (PGA), while the peak acceleration of the design response spectrum in the current specification is the effective peak acceleration (EPA), and EPA is

Performance-Based Design of RC Structures Subjected to Seismic Load Using a Hybrid Retrofitting Method with Friction Damper and Steel Bracing [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Engineering and Physical Modeling, 2022
In this paper, five storey RC (Reinforced Concrete) building is retrofitted using friction damper and steel bracing methods to achieve a target seismic performance level in terms of inter-storey drift and plastic hinge rotations.

Seismic Evaluation of Self-Centering Thin Steel Plate Shear Walls, Subjected to Seismic Sequences [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی عمران شریف
Despite the knowledge of steel shear walls for many years, not much attention was paid to it. Steel shear walls without stiffeners and with stiffeners have been used in America in recent years.

Clinical Severity Score System in Dogs with Degenerative Mitral Valve Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Several risk factors already have been determined for dogs with degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD). Risk factors often have been considered in isolation and have not always taken into account additional information provided by the ...
