商品簡介
Contributed by engineers from Europe and Iran, the 11 chapters in this volume detail the concepts and definitions of performance-based engineering of concrete structures and infrastructures, with emphasis on requirements for potential seismic actions, as well as discussion of the interaction between the local damage and global behavior, and behavior to final collapse. They address selection and scaling time history records for performance-based design, seismic assessment and retrofitting of an under-designed reinforced concrete frame through a displacement-based approach, a single-run adaptive pushover procedure for shear wall structures, the influence of the shear-bending interaction on the global capacity of reinforced concrete frames, the structural performance of typical and non-ductile public reinforced concrete buildings strengthened using friction dampers and reinforced concrete walls, dynamic stability and post-critical processes of slender auto-parametric systems, and the accuracy of force and deformation-based methods in determining the seismic capacity of rehabilitated reinforced concrete school buildings. Others cover structural concepts for design, non-linear analysis, and construction of multi-story base isolated buildings; fuzzy logic applications for performance-based design; the resilience of infrastructures; and numerical methods for the seismic performance assessment of reinforced concrete buildings.
