Review and application of Artificial Neural Networks models in reliability analysis of steel structures (2014)
Journal Article

This paper presents a survey on the development and use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models in structural reliability analysis. The survey identifies the different types of ANNs, the methods of structural reliability assessment that are typical...

Deterioration modeling of steel moment resisting frames using finite-length plastic hinge force-based beam-column elements (2014)
Journal Article

The use of empirically calibrated moment-rotation models that account for strength and stiffness deterioration of steel frame members is paramount in evaluating the performance of steel structures prone to collapse under seismic loading. These deteri... Read More about Deterioration modeling of steel moment resisting frames using finite-length plastic hinge force-based beam-column elements.

Application of reliability-based robustness assessment of steel moment resisting frame structures under post-mainshock cascading events (2014)
Journal Article

This paper proposes a reliability-based framework for quantifying structural robustness considering the occurrence of a major earthquake (mainshock) and subsequent cascading hazard events, such as aftershocks that are triggered by the mainshock. Thes... Read More about Application of reliability-based robustness assessment of steel moment resisting frame structures under post-mainshock cascading events.
