Inclined piles have been widely applied as one of the countermeasures against large lateral spreading induced by soil liquefaction during earthquakes. However, unsatisfactory performance inclined in past events has impeded their application seismic areas. To elucidate when subjected to liquefaction, numerical analyzes were performed using OpenSees framework. For this purpose, a comprehensive th...

This paper introduces a probability-based damage state evaluation methodology for shear walls deriving from data-driven calculation. A previously proposed quantification index, formulated in the time domain, which is capable of tracking progression based on availability structural monitoring data, adopted here hysteresis damages. The probability structure lying specific determined basis derived...

Abstract This paper focuses on the optimum design of e-CLT technology. The technology consists in adding cross laminated timber (CLT) walls to an existing reinforced concrete (RC) infilled frame via asymmetric friction connection (AFC). authors carried out quasi-static and nonlinear dynamic analyses. RC is modeled OpenSees by fiber-section-based elements with force-based formulation. contributi...

The current study uses knowledge from digital architecture, computer science, engineering informatics, and structural to formulate an algorithmic framework for integrated Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Engineering (CAE) of Integrally-Attached Timber Plate (IATP) structures. algorithm is designed take the CAD 3D geometry IATP structure as input automates construction analysis corresponding CAE mode...

The significance of the seismic rotational components have been overlooked in the seismic evaluation of structural behavior. As researchers have measured seismic components more accurately using sensitive rotational velocity sensor, it was observed that the magnitude of rotational components is considerable and could not be neglected. Hence, some parts of seismic damage or failure of structures...

This paper employs one-dimensional numerical ground response analysis models to investigate seismic response of shallow cohesive and non-cohesive soil deposits on vertical propagation of horizontal shear waves. Soil response is modelled by traditional equivalent-linear (EL) frequency-domain analysis using DEEPSOIL software and nonlinear (NL) time-domain analysis using OPENSEES software. The ana...

Continuous girder bridges have been extensively constructed in China over the past 30 years, and these tend to experience severe damage under ground motions with velocity pulses. In current research, an innovative linear friction damper (LFD) is proposed mitigate seismic damages of continuous subjected near-fault motions. The OpenSees platform adopted establish numerical model a bridge region. ...

• Combining a flexible rocking wall system and the flexibility of timber can result in building with considerable flexibility. This paper investigates how partition detailing affects dynamic properties structural system. determines when it is beneficial to consider nonstructural walls overall resistance. Fixed contribute significantly seismic resistance while deformation-compatible ones offer l...

Accidental events, such as impact loading or explosions, are rare events characterized by a very low probability of occurrence. However, their effects often lead to high human losses and economic consequences likely trigger the progressive collapse buildings. The structures attracted attention many researchers topic has been widely investigated in recent years. In addition, increasing interest ...
