As the amplification of seismic force demands due to higher‐mode effects on tall buildings is
increasingly recognized as a design challenge, a number of high‐performance systems …

Rocking motion is notoriously sensitive to the parameters that define it, with experimental
tests oftentimes being non‐repeatable. Therefore, validating numerical models using a …

Abstract Small scale (∼ 1: 30–1: 40) Reinforced Concrete is useful for centrifuge testing.
However, manufacturing the reinforcing cages by hand at this scale is practically difficult …

With growing interest in rocking structures, it is important to quantify the effects of ground
motion processing schemes on rocking response. To this end, this paper studied the …

The mechanical properties of 3D printed materials produced with additive manufacturing
depend on the printing process, which is controlled by several tuning parameters. This …

Testing of small-scale physical models of masonry structures can be useful both to study Soil
Structure Interaction problems and to provide large enough datasets to statistically validate …

This paper presents the shake table testing and finite element (FE) modeling of a modular
prefabricated concrete bridge‐like specimen. The specimen comprised four equal‐height …

The hoisting safety and the difficulty of the main reinforcement connection are directly
affected by stiffness of reinforcement parts. Quantifying the stiffness of reinforcement parts …

This paper presents a modeling approach for predicting the shake-table response of a
rocking and sliding column. A three-dimensional finite element (FE) model was developed …

This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element model to predict the shake-table
response of a rocking bridge-like specimen. The numerical model is statistically validated …
