Abstract: A simplified procedure is developed for estimating the seismic sidesway collapse capacity of frame building structures incorporating linear and nonlinear viscous dampers. The proposed procedure is based on a robust database ...

Abstract: Charts in technical manuals and standards of practice can be used to compute incident and reflected peak overpressures and scaled impulses generated by a detonation of a high explosive. Design values are reported for ...
