A Comparison of Optimized Nonlinear Time History Analysis and the Equivalent Lateral Forces Method for Brace Design
… seismic base shear, and the distribution of equivalent lateral forces. Yielding and drift criteria are then used to determine brace areas. This design procedure is referred to throughout the thesis as the "Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure" (ELF). The thesis compares results from the NTHO …

Integrated seismic assessment and design of plan-irregular structures
… the inelastic torsional response of reinforced concrete structures, both regular and irregular in plan. The concept of “kinematic eccentricity” is introduced, which is the eccentricity that arises from inelastic deformations even when the original structure is perfectly symmetric. In …

A Comparative Study on Seismic Analysis Methods and the Response of Systems with Classical and Nonclassical Damping
… </em>(ASCE 7-10) and used for application of the Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure (ELFP) and Response Spectrum Analysis (RSA). When applying RSA, the modal peak responses were combined using the Absolute Sum (ABS), Square-Root-of-the-Sum-of-Squares (SRSS), and Complete Quadratic Combination …
