Abstract: A formulation for modeling links in eccentrically braced steel frames (EBFs) subjected to random inelastic cyclic loading is presented. The formulation is plasticity‐based, and includes shear and flexural yielding. In ...

Abstract: A series of stress change experiments on a batch of tough pitch copper are presented which were devised to evaluate the variation of Young’s modulus with creep damage. Kachanov’s model is ...
