Investigation of Small Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (sRPAS) to Human Head Impact
… brain strain, and strain-based cumulative strain damage measure (CSDM). HIC showed moderate to strong correlations with skull stress. BrIC correlated with brain strains but at weaker correlations compared to the correlations in other impact scenarios such as sports- or auto-related collisions, …

Implementing a Long-Term Bridge Monitoring Strategy for a Composite Steel Girder Bridge
… anticipated<em><strong> </strong></em>changes in measurements resulting from different types and levels of damage. Four damage measures including natural frequency, peak strain, strain distribution, and neutral axis location, will be presented and the changes in these damage measures for five …

Seismic modeling, analysis and design of structural concrete pile-deck connections
… the pile-deck interface, (ii) the evaluation of damage indices reported in the literature, for use in characterizing the ensuing nonlinear behavior, and (iii) a parametric study of structural interactions affecting pile-deck connections. Initially, a fiber-based computational model, comprising …

Parameters Influencing Seismic Structural Collapse with Emphasis on Vertical Accelerations and the Possible Related Risks for New and Existing Structures in the Central and Eastern United States
… both the WUS and CEUS were used. Four different damage measures were used to assess the performance of the buildings. The IDA study was primarily interested in the response of the structures between the earthquake intensities that have a 10 percent probability of occurring in 50 years (10/50) and …

Stochastic prediction of collapse of building structures under seismic excitations
… drift ratio (IDR) is often selected as the measure to represent the global behavior of structural system in the PBEE framework (Cornell et al., 2002). Likewise, assumed threshold values based on IDR or on slope of IDA curve between IDR and elastic spectral acceleration are most commonly used …
