Innovative Self-Centering Connection for CCFT Composite Columns
… as ideal frame members in seismic resisting systems, as they combine large axial and flexural capacity with ductility. The combination of the two materials increases the strength of the confined concrete and avoids premature local buckling of the steel tube. These benefits are more prominent …

Seismic Response of Short Period Structures and the Development of a Self-Centering Truss Moment Frame with Energy Dissipating Elements for Improved Performance
… which states that peak drifts for an inelastic system will be approximately equal to the peak drifts of an elastic system with the same initial stiffness for a given dynamic loading. This is a concept that has been shown to work for structures with natural period greater than about 1.0 seconds, …
