Abstract: A constitutive model is presented for the hysteretic behavior of elastomeric material, called the modified generalized Maxwell model (MGMM). A new force-displacement relationship that describes the well known generalized ...

Abstract: Distributed hybrid simulation is an approach to large-scale testing in which the system under test is split into several sub-structures which are tested or simulated in different locations. Data are passed between the ...

Abstract: In common with many scientific disciplines, earthquake engineering research is increasingly focusing on large international collaborations to address complex problems. Data integration is a key requirement to facilitate ...
