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

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 ... -
A tenacious base isolation system using round steel bars
(1978-12-31) -
A tribute to George Eiby
