This study aimed to evaluate the behavior of the end shear wall under earthquake
excitations, considering its chaotic behavior in the structure. The end shear wall decreased …

In the first part of this paper, elastostatic stability of cracked conservative flanged concrete
beam-columns has been analyzed. Using the derived expression for the lateral stiffness …

Purpose: Purpose of this paper is the theoretical formulation of elasto-dynamics behaviour of
fully cracked concrete beams for two-degree of freedom (DOF) dynamical system. Such …

Concrete structures are generally cracked in flexural tension at working loads. Concrete
beams with asymmetric section details and crack patterns exhibit different flexural rigidity …

Of late, the attention of the dynamicists has increasingly been focused on the multi-degree of
freedom (MDOF) nonlinear dynamical systems. In the present paper, a new class of …

Investigated herein are the dynamic responses of three different single degree of freedom
(SDOF) bilinear dynamical models of a cracked concrete beam subjected to the El Centro …

When structures are subjected to dynamic types of loads, cracks are fairly consistent. Under
dynamic loads, such structures exhibit nonlinear and inelastic behaviour. If a suitable load …

In this two-part paper, a new class-first order homogeneous dynamical (FOHD) systems-of
two-DOF conservative nonlinear dynamical systems has been explored. Theoretical …

When subjected to time-dependent dynamic loading, concrete structures possess tension
cracks. Such existing internal cracks have a breathing action (opening-closing-reopening) …

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer is an International Space Station Experiment that features
a unique nonlinear support system with no previous flight heritage. The experiment consists …
