Enhanced Nonlinear Truss Model for Capturing Combined Earthquake and Fire Effects in RC Structures
… study is to enhance a previously established modeling approach so that it can describe the performance of RC structures for both cyclic loading and changes in material behavior due to elevated temperatures. The modeling approach is based on the nonlinear truss analogy and has been extensively …

Experimental and Analytical Investigation of Seismic Performance and Retrofit Techniques for Non-Ductile RC Structural Walls
… experimental results were compared to numerical models through the nonlinear truss analogy, which was adapted for this work to incorporate lap splice slip and overlay considerations. The experimental results were well estimated by this numerical modeling approach, achieving within 6% of the peak …

An Analytical Study on the Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Interior Beam-Column Joints
… for this study is the need to develop robust models to test current design recommendations for 3D beam-column-slab subassemblies subjected to large drifts. The present study aims to first evaluate the flexural-shear-bond interactive behavior of two-way beam-column-slab interior connections by …

Development of Novel Computational Simulation Tools to Capture the Hysteretic Response and Failure of Reinforced Concrete Structures under Seismic Loads
… because they either rely on overly simplified models or are restricted to monotonic loading. The present study is aimed to establish analytical tools for the accurate simulation of RC structures under earthquake loads. The tools are also applicable to the simulation of reinforced masonry (RM) …
