Practical engineers should gain confidence in base isolation as an alternative to stiffening, a possible design approach for new as well as for existing buildings even under rare seismic conditions (in large corner period areas and for pulse-type seismic...

Due to their excellent seismic behavior, shear wall-type concrete buildings are very popular in earthquake-prone countries like Chile. According to current seismic regulations, the performance of such structures can be indifferently assessed through line...

The structural analysis of historic masonry churches subject to earthquakes is commonly based on two distinct approaches: that of the global response to seismic actions and that of the local analysis of a priori pre-determined collapse mechanisms. This i...

During their service life, existing structures may suffer a combination of ageing and reinforcement corrosion. The corrosion deterioration can significantly affect the durability of reinforced concrete (RC) elements causing premature concrete crushing, s...

The Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) assesses the global collapse capacity of a structure by plotting its maximum inelastic response, obtained through a non-linear time-history analysis, versus the scaled intensity of different input earthquakes. The s...

This study addresses the crucial role of post-buckling behavior analysis in the structural design of composite aeronautical structures. Traditional engineering practices tend to result in oversized composite components, increasing structural weight. EASA...

Understanding the connections between the built environment and travel mode choice is a major research topic in transportation. However, existing studies usually examine the relationship through trip-based analyses rather than tour-based approaches. A to...

Non-linear finite element analysis (NLFEA) has been frequently used to assess the ultimate capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under the most complex conditions. Nevertheless, the guidelines using such methods to evaluate RC corbels are limit...

In this work, a new methodology for the dynamic analysis of non-linear systems is developed by applying the Mamdani fuzzy model. With this model, parameters such as settling time, peak time and overshoot will be obtained. The dynamic analysis of non-line...

Limitations in determining the resonance frequency for large models, taking into account non-linearity in the form of contact, initiated work on the creation of a simplified method of estimating these resonance frequencies. The trend in this field is the...

Beam-like flexible structures are of interest in many fields of engineering, particularly aeronautics, where wings are frequently modelled and represented as such. Experimental modal analysis is commonly used to characterise the wing?s dynamical response...

This paper examines a new vibrating dynamical motion of a novel auto-parametric system with three degrees of freedom. It consists of a damped Duffing oscillator as a primary system attached to a damped spring pendulum as a secondary system. Lagrange?s eq...

Conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) represents the initial perturbation that satisfies a certain physical constraint condition, and leads to a maximum prediction error at the moment of prediction. The CNOP method is a useful tool in studyin...

An effective seismic design entails many issues related to the capacity-based assessment of the non-linear structural response under strong earthquakes. While very powerful structural calculation programs are available to assist the designer in the code-...
