Buckling Restrained Braces (BRBs) are commonly used as bracing elements in seismic
zones. A key limit state governing BRB design is to prevent flexural buckling. However …

Large-scale shake table tests were performed at E-Defense to examine the out-of-plane
stability of buckling-restrained braces (BRBs). Two specimens were subjected repeatedly to …

Buckling-restrained brace (BRB), which satisfies criteria of preventing flexural buckling of
restraining member, can form out-of-plane buckling mode if stiffness of either connections or …

不失稳支撑是一种高效的抗侧力构件, 当钢支撑和外包约束构件间的间隙适当且外包构件刚度和
强度足够时, 钢支撑将以微幅多波失稳的形式承受压力, 直到进入受压屈服状态. 因此认为 …

Although several self-centering seismic systems have been developed, their use in practice
has been relatively limited. Complicated or unusual field construction, perceived initial cost …

Large-scale shake table tests were performed to examine the out-of-plane stability of
buckling-restrained braces (BRBs). Two specimens were subjected repeatedly to a near …

The authors propose the concept of damage-tolerant truss-structures by introducing
hysteretic dampers into them, which dissipate the seismic energy and avoid the buckling of …

Metal foam is a relatively new and potentially revolutionary material that allows for
components to be replaced with elements capable of large energy dissipation, or …

Buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) are widely used in seismic countries as ductile seismic-
resistant elements and energy dissipating elements. One of the key limits of BRBs is overall …

Large-scale shake table tests were performed at E-Defense to examine the out-of-plane
