Finite-element dynamic time-history analysis based on stiffness variation is the main
approach to analyzing the seismic fragility of a structure, but using it in practical large-scale …

Frequency response functions (FRFs) are important for assessing the behavior of stochastic
linear dynamic systems. For large systems, their evaluations are time-consuming even for a …

In this work, an improved calculation procedure based on an explicit time integration method
is formulated for structural seismic response analysis. The mathematical derivation and …

The P-Δ effect is essential to be considered in the quasi-static pushover or horizontal
seismic analysis of high-rise framed structures. Owing to the presence of the P-Δ effect …

This paper presents a reduced-order multi-scale simulation approach for nonlinear analysis
of structures with local nonlinearities. Using it, the traditional global structural analysis can …

In this study, an explicit time integration scheme based on cubic B-spline interpolation
strategy and momentum corrector is extended for structural seismic response analysis. The …

Several model-based or structure-dependent integration algorithms with explicit
displacement formulation and unconditional stability are recently developed. According to …

Modeling, analysis and optimizing the stealthiness of the submarine platforms are in the
focus of many research studies. Almost all of these methods have been applied to …

Nonlinear finite element analysis is one of the primary techniques for static or transient
nonlinear analysis of engineering structures, allowing accurate modelling of complex load …

A new framework is developed for the fast and accurate analysis of large-scale engineering
structures considering material nonlinearity. A fundamental linear model is constructed first …
