In this study, a building steel structure that adopted an equivalent shear beam structure
model is analyzed, with the updating effects on this simplified analysis model discussed …

The determination of a building's modal parameters (natural periods and mode shapes)
using ultra-low level forced vibration testing and analytical modeling were critically …

The seismic performance of pre-1970s squat reinforced concrete shear walls is assessed
with the capacity spectrum method to expose structural deficiencies that arise due to current …

Recent years have seen a great expansion of the tall building industry, even in areas
characterised by high seismicity. With the increase of structural height, the importance of …

Although low aspect ratio shear walls are widely used in safety-related nuclear structures,
