The general self-centering braces (GSCBs), with a loading stiffness larger than unloading
stiffness, have been proposed recently to increase the braces' energy dissipation capability …

This study is motivated to predict such drift concentration effects for SCB frames with the
perfect flag-shape hysteretic behavior. Nonlinear time history analyses are conducted to …

A procedure for treating the P–Δ effect in the direct displacement‐based seismic design of
regular steel moment resisting frames with ideal elastoplastic material behaviour is …

In this research, the influence of the stiffness irregularity and the p-delta effect on the
structural behavior of a reinforced concrete building is analyzed. The main objective is to …

The results from dynamic analyses by computer of an existing 13-story steel moment
resisting frame building are presented. The computed dynamic properties and response …

Case studies of two buildings having partially restrained (PR) moment frame lateral-force-
resisting systems are presented: a 3-story building for a Los Angeles Uniform Building Code …

The case study building experienced moment connection fractures and has instructure
recorded response. Correlative analyses are performed using a probability approach to …

A method of analysis for the earthquake response of multi-storey mono-symmetric buidlings
founded on flexible foundations is presented. The analysis also includes the sway (P-Δ) …

En esta investigación se analiza la influencia del efecto p-delta en el comportamiento
estructural de una edificación con irregularidad en altura. Se plantean los modelos o casos …

An approximate non‐linear response spectrum method for the analysis of three‐dimensional
structures is presented. The non‐linear effects are taken into account by employing an …
