Stability Requirements of Deep Steel Wide-Flange Columns under Cyclic Loading

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

Just recently, valuable experimental data that characterized the hysteretic behavior of deep wide-flange steel columns (i.e., column depth, d >16 inches) at full-scale became available. Such members are typically used in steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs ...

Fragility Assessment of Beam-Slab Connections for Informing Earthquake-Induced Repairs in Composite-Steel Moment Resisting Frames

Dimitrios Lignos, Hammad El Jisr

Earthquake loss estimation in composite-steel moment resisting frames (MRFs) necessitates a proper estimation of the level of damage in steel beam-to-slab connections. These usually feature welded headed shear studs to ensure the composite action between t ...

Simulating Local Buckling-Induced Softening in Steel Members Using an Equivalent Nonlocal Material Model in Displacement-Based Fiber Elements

Dimitrios Lignos

Fiber-based elements are commonly used to simulate steel beam-columns because of their ability to capture P-M interactions and spread of plasticity. However, when mechanisms such as local buckling result in effective softening at the fiber scale, conventio ...
