The realistic determination of damage estimation and building performance depends on
target displacements in performance-based earthquake engineering. In this study, target …

The differential settlement of the foundation not only causes the degradation of the static
performance of structures, but also affects the seismic performance. To investigate the …

The uneven distributions of mass and stiffness in the case of multi-storey concrete buildings
lead to a torsion sensitivity of those civil structures under dynamical loadings like …

Conventional data-driven methods for predicting the seismic response of structures often
require extensive data and computational resources. To address these challenges, a novel …

An earthquake is one of the most significant and shocking natural disasters ever
documented anywhere on the planet. Throughout history, it has claimed millions of lives and …

Floor slabs, vertical and horizontal joints determine the spatial interaction of the entire load-
bearing system of panel, frame-panel buildings. Under the action of wind loads and …

This study proposes a new structural design of the first-story isolation system in reinforced
concrete (RC) structures. Compared to the conditional buildings with independent columns …

In the present study, the seismic vulnerability of a hybrid mold transformer was investigated
using a dynamic analytical approach incorporating the experimental results of shaking table …

This study suggests a novel beam-column element formulation that utilizes an equilibrium-
driven shear stress function. The beam shear is obtained from the bi-axial states of micro …

The underground structure in the soil is difficult to repair after the earthquake, and the rescue
is also a difficult problem. Therefore, reasonable determination of seismic reliability of …
