Hysteresis Effect of Karst Vadose Zone in Spring Kr5, Mt. Kr?uterin, Austria
Hysteresis effect is considerable in Spring Kr5, involving a chain of processes of recharge-infiltration-discharge. The lag time of each process to another can be briefly summarized and...

Nonlinear Response of SDOF Systems to Intraplate Earthquakes
It is well established that there are characteristics differences between intraplate and interplate earthquakes. A parametric study of SDOF systems indicates that there is also consistent...

A General Hysteresis Model for Wood Structures
To predict the dynamic response of a wood structure, its energy dissipation mechanism and hysteresis behavior must be appropriately modeled. This paper presents a new hysteresis model...

Truncation of Infinite Hierarchy for Hysteretic Systems
An analytical approach for estimating the response statistics of hysteretic systems subjected to Gaussian or Non-Gaussian white noise excitation is proposed. A generalized Ito moment equation...

Responses of a Secondary System and Its Supporting Hysteretic Structure to Seismic Excitations
We consider an N-story building that supports 1-degree-of-freedom equipment on one of the floors, and examine both the building's and the equipment's responses...

Identification of Bilinear Severely Hysteretic Systems
An identification method is investigated on bilinear severely hysteretic systems subjected to a strong earthquake motion by means of the Extended Kalman Filter incorporated with a weighted...

Damage Assessment of Bridge Structures by System Identification
A method for the damage estimation of bridge structures under seismic ground excitation is developed based on system identification approach. The dynamic behavior of a damaged structure...

Hysteresis Studies Including Post Buckling of Angle Web-Members for Truss-Type Girders
The paper presents analytical studies of the buckling capacities and hysteresis behavior of angle-web members of truss-type girders. The eccentricity between the loading point and the...

Normalized Damage Index for Evaluation of Buildings
A conceptual model for evaluation of structural damage is developed based on the fundamental idea of demand and capacity. The proposed formulation combines two recognized sources of damage:...

Modal Analysis of Random Vibration with Hysteresis
A model for the zero or non-zero mean random vibration response of hysteretic plane frames is summarized, in which the plane frame is idealized as a series of elastic sub-elements connected...

Dynamic Response Correlation Using Simplified Models
A simplified model for building response which has a W. Ramberg-W. R. Osgood hysteresis is developed in a discrete sense. It is then used to evaluate the response of an instrumented, bearing...
