A review of the seismic resistance of prestressed concrete
(1970-03-31) -
A Review of the State of Practice for Fluid Viscous Damper Applications in North America and New Zealand
(2023-04-19)The use of Fluid Viscous Dampers (FVDs) for retrofit and new construction applications is growing around the world. FVDs provide an effective way to reduce seismic demands on structures. In retrofit applications, this ... -
A Review on Nonlinear Time History Analysis of Structures
(2024-04-09)Nonlinear time history analysis (NTHA) is a powerful approach for assessing the seismic response of buildings, enabling engineers to better understand and predict the structural behavior under dynamic loading. This review ... -
A revision of the Modified Mercalli seismic intensity scale
(1992-12-31) -
A risk-based framework to account for step-change behaviour in seismic assessment
(2024-04-09)In New Zealand, the seismic assessment of existing buildings focuses on life safety risk. The assessed capacity of a building is limited by the capacity corresponding to any vulnerability (or weakness) that can potentially ... -
A RoBall with an elastic restoring force
(2006-03-31) -
A seismicity model for New Zealand
(1980-12-31) -
A Sensitivity Study of the Design Parameters Affecting the Global Stability of Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames
(2023-04-19)Recent research has focused on the ability of buckling-restrained braces and their connecting elements to act together as a series of resisting elements to resist mechanism formation. This potential failure mode is known ... -
A simple method to predict floor response spectral demands on nonstructural components
(2020-04-22)This paper summarises a newly proposed practice-oriented method to predict elastic floor acceleration response spectra for estimating demands on nonstructural components. The approach builds on previous contributions in ... -
A simple model to quantify rocking isolation
(2018-03-31) -
A statistical approach to determine the seismic design parameters in the asymmetric sliding hinge joint using Belleville Springs
(2020-04-22)The design philosophy has changed over the past 20 years in seismic engineering. Structures moved from failing in a controlled ductile manner, to low damage design, to more recently, nearly no damage design (S. Ramhormozian, ... -
A study of current research achievements and challenges on the application of High Strength Steel (HSS) endplates in seismic resisting systems
(2020-04-22)High strength steel is increasing in demand due to economic and mechanical benefits. A typical mechanical characteristic of HSS is that the ductility of the material decreases along with the increase in strength. This has ...
