For multi-story buildings, the standard approach to develop analytical models from earthquake records is to match the modal characteristics (i.e., modal frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes) of the model with those ...

In this study, collapse risk of a highway bridge is estimated analytically using advance mathematical model. The concentration of this study is on advance modeling of the bridge, including linear sticks of beams, nonlinear ...

Performance-based seismic design of tall buildings is of great importance as demands are increasing for incorporating structural safety in such challenging structures. Although a number of design guidelines and consensus ...

In recent decades the number of high-rise buildings in Turkey has increased considerably and still growing in number at a high pace. However, there is very limited research on the in-situ behavior of these buildings in ...

Expansion of scientific methodologies to estimate the probable extents of ground motion effects in earthquake-prone areas is crucial for proper planning, investigation, and design of engineering structures. In this regard, ...

The Spectral Element Method (SEM), Travelling Wave Method (TWM), and the Energy Flux are robust techniques to calculate the dynamic response of the structures, which are all based on the exact solution of the governing ...

Framework of the structural health monitoring (SHM) is to detect and locate the damage in the structure. Real-time identification of modal properties of a structure is very important in SHM because the changes in modal ...
