Seismic intensity measures (IMs) perform a pivotal role in probabilistic seismic demand
modeling. Many studies investigated appropriate IMs for structures without considering soil …

An increasing interest in the development of high-performance seismic resisting systems
based on posttensioned, jointed ductile connections has been observed in the last decade …

Rigorous assessment of structural response to seismic excitation poses challenges for
researchers in their bid to account for the effects of (1) biaxial interaction; and (2) incidence …

Results of an analytical study aimed at evaluating residual displacement ratios, Cr, which

In recent years, there has been a shift in typical steel construction from moment frames to
concentrically braced frames for use in regions of high seismic risk in the United States …

The development of alternative solutions for precast concrete buildings based on jointed
ductile connections has introduced innovative concepts in the design of lateral-load resisting …

This study focuses on structural systems, which are particularly attractive for bridge design.
Specifically, it investigates the seismic performance of single-column bridges, which are …

The concept of performance-based design (PBD) originated several decades ago and has
been evolving since. PBD in its current form aims at achieving one or more predicted …

This paper summarizes results of a comprehensive analytical study aimed at evaluating the
amplitude and heightwise distribution of residual drift demands in multi‐storey moment …

Bridges are crucial to the transportation network in a region struck by an earthquake.
Collapse of a bridge determines if a road is passable. Ability of a bridge to carry traffic load …
