Substratum Assessment of Various Minimum Torsional Design Philosophies via Structural Optimization Techniques
(WCCM, 2008)
A number of articles have been published, studying the issue of torsional
response of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings [1], the majority of them were focused
on the strength of the structural elements or the structure ...
Advances in design optimization of reinforced concrete structural designs
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
In this work a number of design approaches for 3D reinforced concrete (RC) buildings are formulated in the framework of structural optimization problems and they are assessed in terms of structural performance under ...
Ratio of Torsion (ROT): An index for assessing the global induced torsion in plan irregular buildings
(TECHNO-PRESS, 2015-01-15)
Due to earthquakes, many structures suffered extensive damages that were attributed to the
torsional effect caused by mass, stiffness or strength eccentricity. Due to this type of asymmetry torsional moments are generated ...
