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 ...
Performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) has become an increasingly popular framework to design, retrofit and manage structures. This probabilistic framework integrates data from the seismic hazard, structural response, damage fragility and damage c ...
During the life of a structure, this one will be subject to a large number of solicitations. The objective of the civil engineer is to understand the behaviour of structures when they are subject to actions to ensure that these actions will not lead to fai ...
This paper focuses on an inverse problem involving a commonly used material model in structural steel applications—the Voce-Chaboche model. In particular, the paper proposes an approach focused on obtaining a consistent set of material parameters that accu ...
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 ...

Embedded Column Base (ECB) connections in seismically resistant steel moment frames are commonly designed to be stronger than the connected column, to protect them from inelastic actions. This relies on estimation of demands induced by the column and the s ...
Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) built before the introduction of the capacity design concept do not usually meet modern seismic design requirements. They are vulnerable to seismic events and they could develop unpredictable failure mechanisms. An exist ...
This paper explores the concept of dissipative exposed column base connections by means of anchor rod yielding. This concept aims at enhancing the seismic performance of low-rise steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs). A mechanics-based model is proposed tha ...
This paper introduces a new semi-active strategy for vibration control of truss and frame structures equipped with variable stiffness and damping joints which consist of a shape memory polymer (SMP) core reinforced by an SMP-aramid composite skin. When the ...
