Incorporation of Strong Motion Duration in Incremental-based Seismic Assessments
Mohammadreza Mashayekhi, Mojtaba Harati, Atefeh Darzi +1
This study proposes a new approach to incorporate motion duration in incremental dynamic assessments. In the proposed methodology, at each intensity level, a simulation-based appro…
An investigation on the effect of the near-fault earthquakes on the seismic behavior of RC Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) designed based on Iranian seismic code (standard no. 2800)
Mojtaba Harati, Ahmad Hojjati, Ataalh Modaraei
Past severe earthquakes, such as Bam earthquake of 2003 and Tabas earthquake of 1978, have demonstrated that many cities in Iran are prone to be struck by near-fault earthquakes. S…
Introducing a response-based duration metric and its correlation with structural damages
Mohammadreza Mashayekhi, Mojtaba Harati, Morteza Ashoori Barmchi +1
This study proposes a response-based parameter for strong motion duration which is computed for structures and is the total time they are nonlinear during an earthquake. Correlatio…
Influence of ground motion duration on the structural response at multiple seismic intensity levels
Mojtaba Harati, Mohammadreza Mashayekhi, Morteza Ashoori Barmchi +1
This paper aims to investigate the effects of motion duration on the structural seismic demands, seeking potential correlations between motion durations and structural responses at…
Correlation of ground motion duration with its intensity metrics: A simulation based approach
Mojtaba Harati, Mohammadreza Mashayekhi, Homayoon E. Estekanchi
There are different kinds of intensity measures to characterize the main properties of the earthquake records. This paper proposes a simulation-based approach to compute correlatio…
Estimating the duration effects in structural responses by a new energy-cycle based parameter
Mohammadreza Mashayekhi, Mojtaba Harati, Homayoon E. Estekanchi
Strong-motion duration and number of cycles of motion are the well-known parameters with which earthquake engineers currently use to take into account the influence of motion durat…
