Beskrivning
Hybrid Self-Centring Steel Frames: Hysteretic Behaviour and Structural Seismic Design provides readers with up-to-date information on hybrid steel frames equipped with self-centring energy dissipation bays (HSF-SCEDBs), an innovative seismic-resilient structural system. The book provides details on the conception and development of HSF-SCEDBs. It comprehensively discusses a series of experimental programmes investigating the hysteretic behaviour of novel materials and structural components that endow HSF-SCEDBs with self-centring and energy dissipation capabilities. Furthermore, the book reports detailed discussions on the dynamic behaviour of HSF-SCEDBs based on the results of numerical simulations. The book also reveals the seismic demand of HSF-SCEDBs from a spectral perspective using equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems. Building upon these insights, it develops seismic design and evaluation frameworks to bridge the gap between academic research and practical implementation, positioning the book as a valuable resource for practitioners and academics in structural and seismic engineering. By integrating advanced technologies and methodologies aligned with current seismic design trends, the book aspires to advance the frontiers of knowledge in structural and seismic engineering.

  • Presents HSF-SCEDBs: an innovative structural system integrating seismic resilience principles, high-performance materials and optimised structural arrangements.
  • Investigates the hysteretic behaviour of SMA components and self-centring connections/braces in HSF-SCEDBs through quasi-static tests, numerical analyses and theoretical analyses, providing diverse solutions for engineering practice.
  • Demonstrates the potential of HSF-SCEDBs to mitigate post-earthquake residual deformation, thereby reducing costs associated with repair, demolition and reconstruction, as well as related social impact.
  • Describes performance-based design and evaluation frameworks for HSF-SCEDBs with practical examples and illustrates the application of this technology in enhancing seismic resilience through the integration of the latest research developments, theoretical concepts, and case studies.
