Recently, a high-performance reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure with an energy
dissipative cladding panel connection system (EDCPCS) was proposed. It creatively uses …

The performance-based plastic design (PBPD) method generally relies on the nonlinear
response of equivalent elastic-perfectly-plastic single degree of freedom system. It usually …

Diagrid structural systems have been brought into attention among architectures and
engineers during recent years due to high structural efficiency and aesthetic potentials …

In this paper, an innovative diagrid-like pattern for tall building structures is proposed. Based
on the concept of principal stress trajectories, the pattern is characterized by triangular units …

Recently, there has been research and interest in structural fuses as a way to concentrate
seismic damage in replaceable elements and protect the rest of the structure from inelastic …

An innovative high‐strength steel framed‐tube structure system with web‐bolted double‐
channel shear links (SFTS‐WSL) is introduced herein as an alternative solution to …

A diagrid structure fused with shear link (DSSL) is an innovative earthquake resilient
structural system. The DSSL combines the steel diagrid structural system with shear links to …

In this paper, the authors propose and validate a code-oriented, resilient design
methodology for reinforced concrete buildings with intermediate moment frames (RC-IMFs) …

This research aims to develop a novel and cost-effective seismic force-resisting system
called “curved damper truss moment frame”(CDTMF) by coupling the recently developed …

Energy-based seismic design, which integrates both the accumulated hysteretic energy and
plastic deformation of the structure, provides a more comprehensive evaluation of structural …
