The use of ductile steel fuses for the seismic protection of acceleration sensitive non- structural components: Numerical and Experimental verification

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

Recent seismic events have showcased the vulnerability of non-structural components to even low- or moderate-intensity earthquakes that occur far more frequently than design-basis ones. Thus, community-critical buildings, such as hospitals, telecommunicat ...

The Role of the Composite Floor System and Framing Action in the Seismic Performance of Composite Steel Moment-Resisting Frames

Hammad El Jisr

With the advent of performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE), the need for reliable prediction of earthquake-induced collapse of structures is essential. Despite the significant progress that has been made towards this goal, there are several hurdles ...

EPFL2022

Structural steels have long been used in construction applications. Their mechanical properties and behavior under seismic loading or under fatigue design are of considerable interest for researchers and engineers. Although extensive studies have been cond ...

Development of Dissipative Steel Column-Base Connections for Steel Moment-Resisting Frames under Seismic Loading

Hiroyuki Inamasu

In capacity-designed steel moment resisting frames (MRFs), column base connections feature a strong-base/weak-column design philosophy. Prior studies on fixed-end wide flange steel columns featuring seismically compact cross sections subjected to coupled a ...

EPFL2021

Seismic performance assessment of new and existing steel structures based on nonlinear static (pushover) analysis necessitates the use of engineering‐oriented models that trace the nonlinear response of structural steel elements under static and cyclic loa ...

2020

In order to effectively utilize results from quasi-static cyclic testing on structural components for the earthquake-induced collapse risk quantification of structures, the need exists to establish collapse-consistent loading protocols representing the asy ...

Modelling reinforced concrete coupling beams designed for low-to-moderate seismic regions

Lisa Imperatori

Reinforced concrete (RC) coupling beams are often used to transfer and resist the earthquake loads. Coupling beams can improve significantly the stiffness and the strength of the all lateral resistant structure. By performing inelastically they decrease th ...

Behavior of precast reinforced spun concrete piles under seismic loading

This study was conducted under the supervision of Prof. Sumusu Kono in the Tokyo Institute of Technology (TIT) and Prof. Katrin Beyer from the Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics (EESD) laboratory in the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in ...

2020

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have gained considerable attention in a broad range of engineering applications. In particular, iron-based SMAs (Fe-SMAs) have been recently developed and used as a cost-eﬀective method for prestressed-strengthening of civil stru ...

Experimental investigation on the deformation capacity of lap splices under cyclic loading

Katrin Beyer, João Saraiva Esteves Pacheco de Almeida, Danilo Tarquini

Correct detailing and positioning of lap splices is essential in order to prevent premature failure of reinforced concrete structural members. Especially before the introduction of capacity design guidelines, lap splices were often placed in member regions ...
