High-performance braces for seismic design
… for the structural engineer in designing earthquake-resistant structures is to design buildings with both adequate ductility and sufficient stiffness. Traditional lateral force resisting systems such as the moment resisting frame and the concentrically braced frame are both conventional …

Damping and flexural properties of prestressed concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic loading
… the problem of using prestressed concrete for earthquake resistant structures, and examines the "equivalent viscous damping" approach to the measurement of structural damping. Part two describes the reversed cyclic testing of prestressed concrete members: end moments were applied to the members …

Development of Computational Tools for Characterization, Evaluation, and Modification of Strong Ground Motions within a Performance-Based Seismic Design Framework
One of the most difficult tasks towards designing earthquake resistant structures is the determination of critical earthquakes. Conceptually, these are the ground motions that would induce the critical response in the structures being designed. The quantification of this concept, however, is not …

Seismic performance assessment of quasi-isolated highway bridges with seat-type abutments
… popular strategies to protect civil engineering structures against earthquake hazards. For highway bridges, isolation physically decouples a bridge superstructure from its substructures resting on a shaking ground, leading to a significant reduction in the seismic forces transmitted from the …
