Abstract: Seismic force reduction factor (SFRF) spectra of shear-type multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structures are investigated. The modified Clough model, capable of considering the strength-degradation/hardening and stiffness-degradation, is adopted. The SFRF mean spectra using 102 earthquake records on… read more here.
