Seismic performance assessment for structural optimization
… of earthquakes has spurred the implementation of performance-based design to mitigate damage in addition to protecting human lives. A developing trend is to consider damage directly as a measure of seismic performance. In spite of the ability to estimate the cost of future earthquakes, adjusting …

Seismic Performance Assessment of Wood-Frame Shear Wall Structures
… of this dissertation is to evaluate the seismic performance of a wide range of wood-frame shear wall building designs under the influence of modeling and analysis parameter variations. The first step towards the broad objective of seismic performance evaluation is to identify the …

Seismic performance assessment of quasi-isolated highway bridges with seat-type abutments
"Seismic isolation is one of the most 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 …

Structural Behaviour and Seismic Performance Assessment of Steel Plate Shear Walls with Corrugated, Perforated, and Low Yield Point Steel Web Plates
… to investigate the structural behaviour and seismic performance of corrugated- and perforated-web, LYP steel shear wall systems. Detailed investigations on the geometry of the web-plate showed that the SPSWs with curved-corrugated and perforated infill plates are good and promising structural …

Performance assessment of special concentrically-braced frames in moderate seismic regions
… systems are a type of CBF commonly used in high seismic regions because they are designed to permit large inelastic drifts. Ductile detailing and capacity design requirements ensure braces are the main source of energy dissipation in the system. While the design of SCBFs in high seismic regions …
