Hazard-consistent collapse risk assessment of steel moment frame buildings in Wellington
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
This study evaluates the seismic collapse risk of two modern ductile steel moment frame buildings designed as per the NZS 1170.5 seismic design standard. A four and twelve storey steel moment frame buildings located in ...
Modelling uncertainty induced by plastic hinge length in lumped-plasticity analysis of RC columns
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2022-04-27)
This study quantifies the influence of various plastic hinge length assumptions on the uncertainty in the response of reinforced concrete (RC) columns simulated using lumped plasticity models. Although several expressions ...
Development, verification, and validation of a buckling-fatigue steel material model
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2023-04-19)
Currently, there are limited constitutive models available in finite element analysis packages that reliably capture the coupled effects of bar buckling and fatigue. However, such a model is needed for reliable estimation ...
