Abstract:The Eccentric Braced Frame (EBF) is an earthquake resistant building system that has advantages in terms of strength and stiffness and has good ductility and energy dissipation capability in inelastic condition. Links are the most important elements that serve to dissipate the energy of the earthquake through the inelastic behavior of the structure. The performance of shear links is strength, stiffness, ductility and energy dissipation depending on the cross-sectional profile used on the link. This study aims … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
