This paper proposes a methodology for generating surrogate single-degree-of-freedom
(SDOF) models that can be utilized to estimate the probability distribution of the roof drift …

A hysteretic model of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers in saline soil environment,
incorporating corrosion-induced overall structural degradation, is obtained based on …

Steel moment frame buildings face severe collapse potentials when subjected to
earthquakes beyond the design level. Reliable numerical modeling of steel moment frames …

Change in the fundamental period of a structure during strong earthquakes (the change from
the linear to nonlinear period) can be a good indicator of the damage level of the structure …

In the present study, modified Ibarra, Medina and Krawinkler moment-rotation parameters
are used for modeling the uncertainties in concrete moment frame structures. Correlations of …

Building collapses during recent earthquakes have brought up the need for research on
factors pertaining to collapse and the safety of structures. This requires response replication …

Weak first-story buildings are susceptible to experience severe structural damage, and even
collapse, during strong earthquakes as was evidenced during the September 19, 2017 (M …

This paper attempts to extract a period-based pseudo IDA (PBP IDA) curve in the
incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). The main focus of the paper is to study the nonlinear …

ABSTRACT A new rapid analysis method for estimating the seismic collapse capacity of
moment-resisting frames is proposed. Numerous generic structures with different structural …

Estimation of the inelastic displacement demand (IDD) is an important part of the
performance-based design. Coefficient method is one of the methods for the estimation of …
