Form finding of architectural artifacts using genetic algorithms. A novel approach of handling parametric objects as design variables
(2016)
This work aims to contribute on the form finding techniques of generative space
artifacts, considering objects of parametric design as programming objects, and in particular
design variables –due to parametric approach- ...
Earthquake resistant optimum design of 3d reinforced concrete buildings
(WCCM, 2006)
Designing earthquake resistant structures has been the subject of great concern among engineers and scientists. The vertical seismic resisting elements in particular, in connection with the beam and the plates in a reinforced ...
Assessment of Design Recommendations for Torsionally Unbalanced Structures Using Structural Optimization
(Civil-Comp Press, 2008)
In this work a number of design approaches for 3D Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings are formulated as structural optimization problems and are assessed in terms of their performance under earthquake loading. In particular, ...
Assessment of Code’s Torsional Provisions using Evolutionary Optimization Algorithms
(Eccomas, 2007)
The increasing necessity to solve complex problems in
Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering requires the
development of new ideas and innovative methods for providing
accurate numerical solutions in affordable ...
Numerical aspects of incremental dynamic analysis for the retrofitting of existing industrial steel building utilizing SSCD dampers
(2017)
In this work, the nonlinear analysis of an existing industrial steel structure (Sodium building), and its retrofitting using SSCD dampers is demonstrated. Specific numerical complications of incremental dynamic (IDA) and ...
