Abstract: In this research the tail-equivalent linearization method (TELM) has been applied to a structure with biaxial behavior of materials, using the biaxial Bouc-Wen material model. The modeled structure has been subjected to ...

Abstract: Earthquake motions as felt by structures along three orthgonal directions are, in general, statistically correlated. Here the effect of this correlation on structural response is studied. Assuming the existence of principal ...
