Abstract Curved Surface Slider (CSS) devices have been widely used in recent years for the
reduction of seismic vulnerability of structural systems. Recent risk assessment studies have …

Hybrid Simulation is a dynamic response simulation paradigm that merges physical
experiments and computational models into a hybrid model. In earthquake engineering, it is …

The past two decades have witnessed the adverse effects of low‐frequency components of
severe earthquakes in low‐frequency structures. The development of displacement control …

Summary In the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, low‐frequency components of ground
motion brought long‐duration shaking to high‐rise buildings in mega‐cities far from the …

Seismic fragility evaluates the performance of a structure regarding to its capability to
withstand earthquake loads by describing the exceedance probability for selected …

Hybrid simulation is used to obtain the dynamic response of a system whose components
consist of physical and numerical substructures. The coupling of these substructures is …

Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) provides an efficient and effective experimental
technique for rate-dependent energy-dissipation devices in seismic hazard mitigation. The …

This work presents the experimental campaign performed on a full-scale 6-storey steel
concentrically braced frame equipped with the so-called Dissipative Replaceable Braced …
