The aim of this study is to investigate the seismic behavior of concrete/steel mixed structures. In engineering praxis, many buildings consist of two parts: one made of reinforced concrete and the other made of steel. There are several difficulties in th...

Mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls perform well under earthquake loads, and hence they are preferred in earthquake-prone regions. The multifaceted load transfer between the components of the MSE wall under seismic loads can be captured using numer...

The seismic response of base-isolated structures is notably influenced by mechanical properties of isolation devices due to their essential role in structural behavior. Consequently, the variability of such properties should be accounted for in the desig...
