Rostam Alilou, Majid PouraminianIn recent years, the issue of lower computational cost and analysis time has been the important factors for the structural analysts. In the meantime, after years of its introduction as an analysis having features of nonlinear analysis, the Fast Nonlinear Analysis (FNA) claims to have a higher performance speed than other nonlinear analyses, but has been less used by the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison the Proposed Probabilistic-Based Time-History and the Traditional PSHA ApproachA. NicknamThe main objective of this article is to demonstrate the ability of our technique in estimating the probabilistic-based time-history to be used in dynamic analysis of structures. The result of using our technique is compared with that of traditional approach proposed by Cornell (Cornell, 1968), in the form of response spectrum through a case study.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCase Study on the Effects of Plan Irregularities on Seismic Performance of StructuresEduardo Flores, Tadeh ZirakianGeometric configurations, such as large openings, re-entrant corners, and discontinuity in diaphragms, are very common in architectural design but are seen as undesirable for structural performance during earthquakes. The lateral systems in a structure resist the strong forces induced during an earthquake, preventing damage or collapse of the structure. If these systems fail, the structural integrity of the building may … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2024 · 5,723 accessesView PDFCite
