Stochastic prediction of collapse of building structures under seismic excitations
… acceptably small likelihood of structural collapse. Therefore, accurate estimate of collapse likelihood of buildings under seismic excitations has recently become critical in efforts to promote hazard-resilience of the society, especially in developing national building codes, regional …

Redundancy in Steel Moment Frame Systems Under Seismic Excitations
… of structural redundancy against incipient collapse limit state. In this framework: (1) the maximum column drift ratio (MCDR) or biaxial spectral acceleration (BSA) is used to measure both demand and capacity of a given building; (2) the demand and capacity analyses of a building are …

Sensitivity Study on Modification of Vertical Distribution of Strength and Stiffness in Wood Shear Wall Building Models
… studies of these buildings, the non-simulated collapse limit-state was exceeded primarily in the first story. This observation raised interest in quantifying the influence of varying strength from story to story on seismic response. In this study, four distributions of strength are used as …
