This paper comprehensively discusses the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting
frames with hybrid-self-centring connections (SMRF-HSCC) employing energy dissipation …

High strength steel frames with curved knee braces (HSSFs-CKBs) are typical seismic
resilient structural systems. Previous experimental research showed that an HSSF-CKBs …

Self-centering systems have emerged as innovative lateral force-resisting mechanisms
aimed at improving the earthquake resilience of building structures. The fully self-centering …

Many recent research studies focused on the development of innovative seismic-resilient
structures, chasing the objectives of minimising both seismic damage and repair time, hence …

This study reported an experimental study of hybrid-self-centering connections (HSCCs)
employing energy dissipation sequences. The dual self-centering mechanism of the …

In this study, the demountable-metallic-corrugated-shear-panel damper (DCSPD) were
investigated experimentally and numerically. Based on the quasi-static cyclic loading …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) structures exhibit considerable superiority in efficient and
environmentally friendly building construction in high-seismic regions. The objective of this …

This paper intends to develop a new lateral force-resisting system–the hybrid self-centering
companion spines system (denoted as the HSCS system)–for obtaining better seismic …

Current design methods for achieving seismic resilience of structures are limited to hazard
levels of service level earthquake, design-based earthquake and maximum considered …

Self-centering structures are emerging structural systems developed for enhancing the
seismic resilience of building structures by minimizing residual displacements. Various …
