Assessment of the seismic performance of a structure often requires conducting nonlinear dynamic analyses under a set of ground motion records scaled to a specific level [...]

The present study is focused on the comparison of non-linear static analysis (Pushover) which is used by two major guidance documents, the New Zealand guideline and the U [...]

Near-field ground motions have caused much damage in vicinity of seismic sources during recent earthquakes. Eccentrically braced frames have convinced ductility and enoug [...]
