DOI: 10.3390/met11081271
Abstract: Special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs) located in regions close to earthquake faults may be subjected to near-fault ground motions, often characterized by pulses with long periods. These near-fault pulses could impose additional seismic demands on… read more here.
