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...

The inelastic response of reinforced concrete (RC) frames under seismic loading is influenced by mechanical and geometrical properties and by the reinforcement arrangement of the beam?column members. In this paper, the seismic response and recentering be...

The response of steel moment frames is estimated by first considering that the mass matrix is the concentrated type (ML) and then consistent type (MC). The effect of considering more than one element per beam is also evaluated. Low-, mid- and high-rise f...

Due to their excellent seismic behavior, shear wall-type concrete buildings are very popular in earthquake-prone countries like Chile. According to current seismic regulations, the performance of such structures can be indifferently assessed through line...

The structural engineering community often deals with the issue of inelastic incursions of the structural response. Although buildings situated in seismic regions are usually designed using elastic analysis, most encounter significant inelastic deformati...

Recent seismic events that hit the central part of Italy have highlighted again the high vulnerability of the historical and architectonical heritage of Italy and the importance of preserving it. However, the seismic assessment of monumental buildings is...

In the last decades, the possibility to use the inelastic capacities of structures have driven the seismic design philosophy to conceive structures with ductile elements, able to obtain large deformations without compromising structural safety. In partic...
