This paper presents an important improvement in seismic design of structures based on the
application of the Theory of Plastic Mechanism Control (TPMC). TPMC was originally …

As an extension of the steel plate shear wall (SPSW), the coupled steel plate shear wall
(CSPSW) usually needs to be placed around the perimeter forming a core tube to resist …

To investigate the repair method of damaged steel plate shear wall in a steel frame, a scaled
specimen was designed and tested under a two-phase pseudo-static loading. The damaged …

Steel frame with steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) is used to resist lateral loads caused by
wind and earthquakes in high-rise buildings. In this load-resisting system, the cost and …

This study investigates the plastic seismic design of moment-resisting frames using concrete-
filled steel tube columns (MRF-CFST) by utilizing the theory of plastic mechanism control …

The steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) have been proven effective in reinforced concrete
frames (RCFs) as a lateral force‐resistant structure. Despite of advancements, accurately …

In the paper, an innovative shear wall, which is referred to as steel fiber reinforced concrete
(SFRC) shear wall with concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns, is introduced, based on …

This paper presents the seismic design of a steel moment‐resisting knee‐braced frame
(MKF) using the theory of plastic mechanism control (TPMC) within the capacity‐based …

This paper proposed three composite strengthening methods for repairing seismic‐
damaged RC frames to restore their seismic capacity. Combined with the damage …

Current seismic design codes use lateral load distributions that do not consider 3D structural
behavior, nonlinear structural state, and soil-structure interaction. Moreover, calculated …
