Abstract: A detailed seismic performance assessment procedure has been developed for reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry infill walls. The procedure is based on member damage functions, in terms of interstory drift ...

Abstract: This study presents a novel seismic damage detection framework for building structures along with an innovative damage index. The proposed framework leverages solely the data captured during an earthquake event to detect ...

Abstract: Results of comprehensive nonlinear response history analyses on a range of configurations representing typical highway overcrossings subjected to combined effects of vertical and horizontal components of near-fault ground ...

Abstract: In this study, the multihazard response of code-designed conventional and base-isolated steel frame buildings is evaluated using nonlinear response history analysis. The results of hazard and structural response analysis ...
