REVIEW ON PERFORMANCE BASED WIND ANALYSIS AND DESIGNIRJET Journal
The document discusses performance-based wind analysis and design of structures. It provides a literature review of research on using nonlinear analysis methods and performance-based approaches for wind loading, which consider structural responses in the nonlinear range. These methods allow for controlled inelasticity and aim to more efficiently design structures to meet performance requirements under varying wind loads. The review found that while performance-based seismic design is common, performance-based wind design requires further investigation, particularly for defining wind load patterns for nonlinear analysis.
Comparative Study on Masonry Infill, Friction Dampers and Bare Frame Structur...IRJET Journal
The document compares the seismic response of a 10-story building modeled with three different configurations: a bare frame, a frame with masonry infill walls modeled as equivalent diagonal struts, and a frame with friction dampers. Non-linear time history analysis was performed using the EL Centro earthquake record. The addition of masonry infills increased the lateral stiffness and decreased displacements and column moments but also increased base shear and accelerations. The use of friction dampers effectively dissipated energy and reduced the structural response compared to the bare frame, without increasing other demands. Analysis results for story acceleration, displacement, column moment, and base shear are presented for each model.
Static Analysis of G+2 Institutional Building in BhopalIJERA Editor
A Seismic design is aimed at controlling the structural damage based on precise estimations of proper response
parameters. Seismic design explicitly evaluates how a building is likely to perform; given the potential hazard it
is likely to experience, considering uncertainties inherent in the quantification of potential hazard and
uncertainties in assessment of the actual building response. It is an interactive process that begins with the
selection of performance objectives, followed by the development of a preliminary design, an assessment as to
whether or not the design meets the performance objectives, and finally redesign and reassessment, if required,
until the desired performance level is achieved.

This document discusses seismic evaluation of soft-storey buildings and methods to strengthen them. It begins with an abstract stating that buildings are often designed without considering the structural effects of masonry infill walls. During earthquakes, buildings with open ground floors (soft-storeys) perform poorly as the ground floor columns cannot provide adequate shear resistance. The document then evaluates 8 building models with different lateral load resisting systems - bare frame, masonry infill, shear walls, bracing - using linear static, linear dynamic and nonlinear static (pushover) analysis methods. It provides the design data, load calculations, time period calculations, and equivalent static analysis as per Indian codes for the models. Distribution of lateral forces is also shown
REVIEW STUDY ON IMPACT OF BLAST LOAD ON R.C.C. BUILDINGIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a research paper that reviewed literature on the impact of blast loads on reinforced concrete (RCC) buildings. The objectives of the study were to understand blast phenomena and their effects on structures, assess structural vulnerability to blast loads, and recommend design improvements. The methodology involved using software to model an RCC building and apply blast loads calculated from various charge weights and standoff distances. Results showed that increasing column and beam sizes, adding shear walls or steel bracing, improved blast resistance by reducing story displacements and drifts. Further research opportunities included studying material behavior under high strain rates from blasts and developing more economical and effective blast-resistant design methods.
Behavior of RCC Structural Members for Blast Analysis: A ReviewIJERA Editor
In today’s scenario threat of enemies and terrorist attack is increasing. Therefore consideration of blast load in analysis and design is essential. A bomb explosion within or nearby outside the building can cause catastrophic failure of building. Blast loads have, in the recent past, become important service loads for certain categories of structure. An important task in blast resistance design is to make a realistic prediction of blast pressure. The distance of explosion from the structure is an important datum, governing the magnitude and duration of blast loads. In the present study, the RCC frame was analyzed by using conventional code for gravity loads using moment resisting frame. The blast load was calculated using UFC-340-02 (2008) or IS 4991-1968 for 500 kg and 100 Kg TNT at standoff distance of 10m and 30m from face of column at first floor level. The triangular impulse was applied as nodal time history at all front face joints. The analysis was performed using Computer aided software. The response of structure of will be evaluated under various blast scenarios. The response will be checked for safety of the structure on many parameters like displacement, acceleration and velocity.

The real behaviour of connections in the steel buildings is often underestimated by designers at the structural analysis and design stages, despite their influences on the structural performance, deflection limits and a possibility of achieving a reduction in the material weights, which can significantly reduce the overall cost and amount of energy embodied. This paper, therefore, described systematic and simplified procedures to conduct a first-order elastic structural analysis of the semi-rigid steel portal frames in order to implement a design optimization using a Generalized Reduced Gradient (GRG) algorithm within Solver Add-in tool in Microsoft Excel. The written program used the robustness and efficiency of the Finite Element (FE) method with the versatility of a spreadsheet format in Excel. To simulate the semi-rigid response of the connections, the mathematical representation through End-Fixity Factor and the Modified Stiffness Matrix were used to incorporate such behaviour into structural analysis packages. To validate the written program, a computer-based analysis was conducted using Prokon® software and comparing analysis results with those obtained from the Excel spreadsheet. It demonstrates that Excel's results were perfectly accurate. Consequently, the procedure of establishing spreadsheets as a finite element analysis software for a certain form of frames demonstrates its validity.

Effect of configuration on lateral displacement and cost of the structure for...eSAT Journals
Abstract
The choice of a cost effective lateral-force-resisting system for high-rise structures is challenging. There is no streamlined methodology to quantitatively compare the cost-effectiveness of each system beyond the more qualitative perception based evaluation of advantages or disadvantages. Developers currently base their decisions on architectural layout and structural integrity. Cost considerations are often primarily based on experience.
This decision making process has three primary shortfalls.
1) It may not incorporate factors which greatly affect the economy of a particular framing system.
2) It may not allow engineers to carryout designs at the least cost.
3) Comparison of framing systems may not address the specific building types.
This investigation proposes a prototype cost-effective model for selecting either a skeleton framing system or skeleton frame with bracing system for steel structural frames. A model for selecting cost-effective skeleton framing system or skeleton frame with bracing system will be a valuable tool for all decision makers. Engineers, in particular, will be able to select optimal steel framing faster, thus reducing design time and iterations. Furthermore, selection of economic framing system will also result in direct cost savings for steel structural frames.
The study involves the design and cost estimation of steel frames representing skeleton framing system and skeleton frame with bracingsystem. The cost effectiveness of the framing systems are compared based on lateral displacement requirements and cost.The preferred framing system should meet lateral displacement requirements and is lower in cost. The results of this pilot study showed that the Skelton framing system with bracing is the cost-effective choice for 30storeys steel space frames at wind speeds of 55m/sec, 50m/sec and 47m/sec.

SEISMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS OF LINKED TWIN TALL BUILDINGS WITH STRUCTURAL COUPLINGIAEME Publication
Effect of structural links on seismic responses for a linked building system
has been investigated in this paper by using finite element modeling technique.
The linked building system in this study is represented by twin 40-story
reinforced concrete frame-wall structures horizontally coupled by structural
links. It is assumed that the two adjacent buildings were similar in this linked
building system, so the two adjacent stories could be linked at the same height
by an inter-building link. The linked building system is modeled as a rigid
floor diaphragm for towers and as a beam for each link fixedly linked to the
perimeter structural framework of the buildings. By employing earthquake
time history excitation, the seismic responses of the twin towers were
computed at different locations for the link. The responses of structures were
evaluated and compared. The analysis outcomes indicated that the link could
effectively change the structural responses of the linked building system
STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence

The document discusses performance-based seismic design of multi-story reinforced concrete buildings. It provides a literature review of previous studies that have analyzed buildings using nonlinear static pushover analysis to evaluate seismic performance. The goal of performance-based seismic design is to carefully assess how a structure will perform under earthquake loads by identifying performance objectives and evaluating the structure's capacity through nonlinear analysis. Previous studies have found that performance metrics like story displacement, drift, and base shear can be used to evaluate if a design meets life safety or other performance objectives. The document concludes that further research on nonlinear dynamic analysis and energy dissipation systems could help improve seismic performance estimation of reinforced concrete structures.
BEHAVIOR OF TALL MASONRY CHIMNEYS UNDER WIND LOADINGS USING CFD TECHNIQUEIRJET Journal
This document discusses using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to analyze wind-induced responses of tall masonry chimneys. It first reviews previous research using both experimental and numerical methods like CFD to study the effects of building design on aerodynamic forces. The document then describes how CFD and the finite volume method can be applied to model airflow and calculate drag forces on chimneys. Lastly, it notes that CFD simulations require expertise and proper modeling of factors like turbulence, and that various elements of a building's design impact its experience of wind loads.

This document discusses a numerical study that investigated the effects of different reinforcement schemes and column shapes on the blast resistance of reinforced concrete columns. The study used finite element analysis to model RC columns with varying transverse reinforcement spacing, axial load levels, column shapes, and longitudinal reinforcement arrangements. The results showed that transverse reinforcement spacing, axial loading, and column shape significantly affected the behavior of RC columns under blast loading, with more closely spaced transverse reinforcement and circular columns displaying higher blast resistance. The longitudinal reinforcement arrangement also influenced column response to blast loading at low scaled distances. The study aims to improve understanding of RC column behavior under blast loading to inform more blast-resistant design.

This document reviews the evaluation of response reduction factors for steel moment resisting frames through non-linear modeling and analysis. It begins with an abstract that outlines the objectives and methodology of using non-linear static analysis in SAP2000 to evaluate response reduction factors and compare them to code requirements considering different seismic zones and ground motions. It then provides background on moment resisting frames and the concept of response reduction factors. The document describes the non-linear modeling and pushover analysis methodology used. It also reviews previous literature on evaluating response reduction factors for steel frames and the factors that influence the values, such as number of stories, bracing type, and boundary conditions.

The document analyzes the progressive collapse of low-rise steel frame structures with and without bracing systems. Progressive collapse is when one local structural failure causes additional collapse in a disproportionate manner. The study uses linear static analysis based on GSA-2013 guidelines to assess progressive collapse potential. A 5-story and 10-story steel frame is modeled and analyzed with the sudden removal of columns at different locations. Results show bracing systems help minimize progressive collapse by providing alternate load paths, as measured by demand capacity ratios, joint displacements, member forces, etc. being lower when braces are included.
Seismic Performance of RC Frame Building with Different Position of Shear Wallijtsrd
An earthquake force is a very strange force and behaves quite differently than Gravity and Wind loads, striking the weakest spot in the whole three dimensional structure. It’s not earthquake that kills, in fact ignorance in design and poor quality construction results in many weaknesses in the structure that cause serious damage to life and property. Masonry Infill are frequently used to fill the gap between the vertical and horizontal resisting elements of the building frames with the assumption that these in fills will not take part in resisting any kind of load either axial or lateral. Hence, its significance in the analysis is generally neglected by the designer. In fact, infill wall and shear wall considerably enhance the rigidity and strength of the frame structure. Various researches suggest that the bare frame has comparatively lesser stiffness and strength than the infill frame and frame with shear wall, therefore their ignorance cause failure of many multistorey buildings when subjected to seismic loads. In the present study, the finite element analysis of RC frame models viz. a bare frame a frame with shear wall considering infill a bare frame with shear wall has been carried out and the number of storeys vary as G 3, G 5, G 7 and G 9. Linear analysis of all RC frame structures has been performed as per IS 1893 Part 1 2002 and IS 456 2000. In this study only in plane stiffness of masonry wall has been considered and infill panels modelled as equivalent diagonal strut elements. The behaviour of buildings subjected to Gravity and Seismic loads with the help of Response Spectrum Analysis using FEM based software and the effect on Time Period, Mass Participation factor, and Storey Drift has been observed. Strength and Rigidity of RC bare frame structures is found increasing after the inclusion of infill panels and shear wall.

IRJET- Seismic Evolution of Soft Storeyed Structures When Exposed to Earth Qu...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on strengthening soft-story buildings to improve their seismic performance. Soft-story buildings, which have open or weaker first floors, perform poorly in earthquakes. The study models an 8-story reinforced concrete building under different structural configurations, including bare frame, infill masonry walls, shear walls, and bracing systems. Nonlinear static pushover analysis is used to evaluate the capacity and seismic response of each model. The results show that including infill walls, shear walls or bracing systems increases the building's lateral stiffness and decreases its fundamental natural period compared to the bare frame model. Strengthening the ground floor improves the seismic resistance of soft-story buildings.

SEISMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS OF LINKED TWIN TALL BUILDINGS WITH STRUCTURAL COUPLINGIAEME Publication
Effect of structural links on seismic responses for a linked building system
has been investigated in this paper by using finite element modeling technique.
The linked building system in this study is represented by twin 40-story
reinforced concrete frame-wall structures horizontally coupled by structural
links. It is assumed that the two adjacent buildings were similar in this linked
building system, so the two adjacent stories could be linked at the same height
by an inter-building link. The linked building system is modeled as a rigid
floor diaphragm for towers and as a beam for each link fixedly linked to the
perimeter structural framework of the buildings. By employing earthquake
time history excitation, the seismic responses of the twin towers were
computed at different locations for the link. The responses of structures were
evaluated and compared. The analysis outcomes indicated that the link could
effectively change the structural responses of the linked building system
STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence
Performance based seismic design of the multi-storied reinforced concrete bui...IRJET Journal
The document discusses performance-based seismic design of multi-story reinforced concrete buildings. It provides a literature review of previous studies that have analyzed buildings using nonlinear static pushover analysis to evaluate seismic performance. The goal of performance-based seismic design is to carefully assess how a structure will perform under earthquake loads by identifying performance objectives and evaluating the structure's capacity through nonlinear analysis. Previous studies have found that performance metrics like story displacement, drift, and base shear can be used to evaluate if a design meets life safety or other performance objectives. The document concludes that further research on nonlinear dynamic analysis and energy dissipation systems could help improve seismic performance estimation of reinforced concrete structures.
BEHAVIOR OF TALL MASONRY CHIMNEYS UNDER WIND LOADINGS USING CFD TECHNIQUEIRJET Journal

IRJET- Effects of Different Reinforcement Schemes and Column Shapes on the Re...IRJET Journal
This document discusses a numerical study that investigated the effects of different reinforcement schemes and column shapes on the blast resistance of reinforced concrete columns. The study used finite element analysis to model RC columns with varying transverse reinforcement spacing, axial load levels, column shapes, and longitudinal reinforcement arrangements. The results showed that transverse reinforcement spacing, axial loading, and column shape significantly affected the behavior of RC columns under blast loading, with more closely spaced transverse reinforcement and circular columns displaying higher blast resistance. The longitudinal reinforcement arrangement also influenced column response to blast loading at low scaled distances. The study aims to improve understanding of RC column behavior under blast loading to inform more blast-resistant design.

It then provides background on moment resisting frames and the concept of response reduction factors. The document describes the non-linear modeling and pushover analysis methodology used. It also reviews previous literature on evaluating response reduction factors for steel frames and the factors that influence the values, such as number of stories, bracing type, and boundary conditions.
Progressive Collapse Analysis of Low Rise Steel Frame Structure With and With...IRJET Journal
The document analyzes the progressive collapse of low-rise steel frame structures with and without bracing systems. Progressive collapse is when one local structural failure causes additional collapse in a disproportionate manner. The study uses linear static analysis based on GSA-2013 guidelines to assess progressive collapse potential. A 5-story and 10-story steel frame is modeled and analyzed with the sudden removal of columns at different locations. Results show bracing systems help minimize progressive collapse by providing alternate load paths, as measured by demand capacity ratios, joint displacements, member forces, etc. being lower when braces are included.
Seismic Performance of RC Frame Building with Different Position of Shear Wallijtsrd
An earthquake force is a very strange force and behaves quite differently than Gravity and Wind loads, striking the weakest spot in the whole three dimensional structure. It’s not earthquake that kills, in fact ignorance in design and poor quality construction results in many weaknesses in the structure that cause serious damage to life and property. Masonry Infill are frequently used to fill the gap between the vertical and horizontal resisting elements of the building frames with the assumption that these in fills will not take part in resisting any kind of load either axial or lateral. Hence, its significance in the analysis is generally neglected by the designer. In fact, infill wall and shear wall considerably enhance the rigidity and strength of the frame structure. Various researches suggest that the bare frame has comparatively lesser stiffness and strength than the infill frame and frame with shear wall, therefore their ignorance cause failure of many multistorey buildings when subjected to seismic loads. In the present study, the finite element analysis of RC frame models viz. a bare frame a frame with shear wall considering infill a bare frame with shear wall has been carried out and the number of storeys vary as G 3, G 5, G 7 and G 9. Linear analysis of all RC frame structures has been performed as per IS 1893 Part 1 2002 and IS 456 2000. In this study only in plane stiffness of masonry wall has been considered and infill panels modelled as equivalent diagonal strut elements. The behaviour of buildings subjected to Gravity and Seismic loads with the help of Response Spectrum Analysis using FEM based software and the effect on Time Period, Mass Participation factor, and Storey Drift has been observed. Strength and Rigidity of RC bare frame structures is found increasing after the inclusion of infill panels and shear wall.

IRJET- Seismic Evolution of Soft Storeyed Structures When Exposed to Earth Qu...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on strengthening soft-story buildings to improve their seismic performance. Soft-story buildings, which have open or weaker first floors, perform poorly in earthquakes. The study models an 8-story reinforced concrete building under different structural configurations, including bare frame, infill masonry walls, shear walls, and bracing systems. Nonlinear static pushover analysis is used to evaluate the capacity and seismic response of each model. The results show that including infill walls, shear walls or bracing systems increases the building's lateral stiffness and decreases its fundamental natural period compared to the bare frame model. Strengthening the ground floor improves the seismic resistance of soft-story buildings.

1) The paper presents a probability analysis of slope stability using the Monte Carlo simulation method to account for uncertainty in parameters like pore water pressure, cohesion, and internal angle of friction.
2) The results of the Monte Carlo simulation method are compared to other recognized methods of slope stability analysis like Bishop simplified, Fellenuis, Janbu simplified and corrected, Spencer and Lowe-Karafiath which use limit equilibrium.
3) The probability analysis finds that the failure probability is most affected by the standard deviation of pore water pressure, cohesion, internal angle of friction, and correlation coefficient between parameters, though individual limit equilibrium methods only account for one of these parameters in each analysis.
This document summarizes an abstract from the 9th International Scientific Conference on Applied Sciences and Engineering. The abstract discusses some biochemical markers that can predict pre-eclampsia. It states that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) directly damages vascular endothelial cells and increases endothelial permeability, which may result in secretion of vasoactive substances and increased vascular permeability and coagulation. This involvement of TNF-α in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia means it may identify patients at high risk for the condition and serve as a marker of severity. Preeclamptic women also have abnormal lipid metabolism and profiles due to pre-eclampsia, and this alteration in lipid metabolism may play a key role in developing symptoms.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

Abstract
The inelastic design seismic forces are generally calculated equal to corresponding
elastic ones divided by response reduction factor (R), that depends on structural
Ductility, Over-Strength, and Redundancy. Many studies have attempt to quantify the
potential of structural systems to delimit the level of force imposed by virtue of their
ductility and energy absorption capacity. Most of practice design codes give values of
(R) factor for a building as function of its structural system only excluding the effect of
important factors such as: the geometrical configuration, reinforcement ratio, concrete
strength, yielding stress of reinforcement, and earthquake magnitude. A parametric
study was conducted to investigate the effect of those parameters on RC Ductile
Frames Structures using Applied Element Method, where a nonlinear dynamic analysis
was carried out in the time domain for multistory reinforced concrete framed structures.
Results showed that (R) factor is greatly affected by earthquake magnitude, moderate
effect by geometrical configuration, and material properties. The results also showed
the (R) factors recommended in current design codes are unconservative and over
estimated for the majority of studied cases.
Keywords: Response modification factor, Seismic design, Ductility, Over-strength, Design spectrum, Non-
linear analysis.
