..., was proposed to address the dynamic response caused by failures of the cables with complex structural form. Design/methodology/approach This method can instantly reduce the cable force to zero through the instantaneous temperature rise process of the cable. Combined with theoretical formula and finite...

... to the height of structure, as contained in the European Standard EN 1998-1. Comparison between the target acceleration, including the equivalent structural damping, and the failure peak ground acceleration obtained from the dynamic response of the structure exhibits notably good agreement. This result implies...

... and eigenvectors created by the method are the eigenpairs for the whole structure and not for the components of structure. On the other hand, the dynamic response by using mode superposition can also be implemented in substructure level. This algorithm actually is an exact substructuring technique which means...
