Modelling techniques to capture the backbone envelope behaviour of coupling beams subjected to seismic loading

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Neven Kostic

Structural R/C cores are a popular and efficient choice as lateral-load resisting system in medium to tall buildings. The walls of the cores typically present large openings providing access to elevators placed within them. Shear induced by lateral forces ...

Topologie des champs de contraintes pour le dimensionnement des structures en béton armé

Neven Kostic

The stress field method, which is based on the lower bound theorem of plasticity, provides an unlimited number of solutions allowing to carry the applied loads to the supports for a given structure. This possibility which gives a large freedom to designing ...

Computer-Based Development of Stress Fields

Neven Kostic

Computer-aided approaches for the efficient development of suitable stress fields are useful tools for the structural design of concrete structures. The paper describes a new procedure that is used within a previously proposed approach for the automatic ge ...
