Abstract: In this paper, a method is proposed for the robust design of tuned mass damper (TMD) systems for seismic protection of multistory buildings. The seismic excitation is a random ground motion acceleration modeled by a ...

Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping has been shown to be very effective in enhancing the static loading capacity of reinforced concrete columns. However, the impact performance of FRP-confined square concrete columns ...
