The main goal of this research is the performance evaluation sampled moment-resisting steel structure against 3D simulated blast loading. In first stage present research, numerically wave verified by comparing with relevant renowned numerical and experimental previous researches. second stage, sensitivity blast-induced pressure to finite element mesh size surrounding air cube dimensions are inv...

Eccentric structures will have torsional vibrations subjected to earthquakes, which can accelerate the damage of structures, and even become main cause building collapse. Semi-active control systems equipped with multiple magnetorheological (MR) dampers been widely applied in structural vibration control. In this study, numerical models spatial eccentric MR were established, time history analys...

The effects of long duration ground motions on the seismic performance a newly constructed two-storey balloon-type cross-laminated timber (CLT) building located in Vancouver, Canada, was studied. A three-dimensional numerical model developed OpenSees. connection and shear wall models were validated with test data. Twenty-four pairs short records approximately same amplitude, frequency content, ...

The seismic safety of existing building stock has become a very critical issue in recent years, mainly earthquake-prone South Europe where most the buildings were designed before enforcement standards. Therefore, concept, development and testing efficient cost-effective retrofitting technologies are nowadays strongly needed, both for society scientific community. This study deals with assessmen...

Liquefaction is a disaster that can damage building infrastructure. This all too common in granular sandy soils. due to the subsidence and instability of soil when subjected shocks such as earthquakes. For this reason, mitigation efforts are needed reduce risk liquefaction. study will compare effectiveness influence micro-pile, stone column, densification methods on soils at Central Java PLTU s...
