Analytical Study of Response of Multi-Storey Building under Biaxial Excitation IJERA Editor
Conventional practice of dynamic analysis using seismic codes recommends that the dynamic analysis is done by
considering earthquake force in one direction at a time i.e. uniaxial excitation. But the simultaneous effect of
asymmetricities in both orthogonal directions is neglected because of uniaxial excitation approach. Also the
behaviour of building during earthquake depends upon its shape size and overall geometry. The partial and
complete collapse of reinforced concrete buildings in recent earthquakes has raised the need to design the
building considering biaxial forces. Limited research has been carried out on effect of such biaxial excitation.
To get reliable results a regular and C shape model of multi-storey building is analysed using various timehistories
in SAP2000 v17. The angle of incidence of earthquake forces will be varying between 0 to 360 degrees.
The influence of the orthogonal horizontal component of input ground motion on seismic response of reinforced
concrete building is analysed by comparing the response of biaxial excitation with the response of uniaxial
excitation.
Change in maximum displacement values, considering this as the basic criteria, comparison of the responses due
biaxial excitation and uniaxial excitation is done. Time history analysis has been carried out using SAP2000
after validating the model with results available in reference literature.
It is observed and recommended that considering biaxial forces is necessary for an accurate determination of
response and also to reach an adequate design for serviceability earthquakes.
Seismic pounding of multistoreyed buildingseSAT Journals
Abstract
The investigations made by past and present earthquake seismologist have shown that during earthquake, the building structures are
vulnerable to severe damages. The adjacent buildings collide and collapse during moderate to strong ground vibrations caused by
earthquakes. Actually, the separation distance of many buildings is n adequate to accommodate their relative motions, so building
vibrate out of phase and collapse. Among the possible structural damages the seismic induced pounding has been commonly observed
phenomenon. In this paper, a systematic study regarding pounding of building response as well as seismic hazard mitigation practices
like effect of different separation distances and effect of addition of shear walls are investigated in ETABS nonlinear software. The
results were obtained in the form of pounding force and point displacements. As the pounding effect varies inversely with separation
distance so by increasing separation distance pounding effect is reduced greatly and hence damage to neighboring buildings is
minimized. Also, the provision of shear wall reduces effect of pounding.
Key words: Seismic Pounding, Separation Distance, Mitigation of Seismic Pounding, Adjacent Buildings, Gap Element,
Impact, Shear wall.

Effect of soft storeys in earthquake resistant analysis of rc framed structureseSAT Journals
storey in which the stiffness is less than 70% of the storey above or less
than 80% of the combined stiffnesses of the three storeys above. It is the general practice in the multistoreyed buildings to
accommodate parking facilities for the vehicles of the occupants of the building. As we know that the soft storey in a building
structure causes stiffness irregularity in a structure, due to this the structure undergoes unequal storey drifts, formation of the
plastic hinges and then finally resulting into the collapse of the structure.This research work purely interacts with the effect of the
soft storeys in the analysis of RC framed structures as entitled above, and in this work the soft storeys positions has been provided
at different levels as shown in the analytical modelling. All the models are analyzed by using the ETABS software. The seismic
analysis performed consists of the Equivalent static analysis (ESA), response spectrum analysis (RSA), and the push over analysis
(PA). The seismic base shear forces, storey drifts, and the displacements has been compared with the three analysis methods as
listed above. With the aid of the push over analysis the values of the ductility and the response reduction factor have been
obtained. Apart from these, the performance point parameters such as spectral acceleration(Sa) , spectral displacement (Sd),
Base shear(V) and the roof displacement(D) has been also illustrated in this work and a detailed information of several stages of
the hinge formation (A,B,IO,LS,CP,C,D,E) has also been illustrated.. Keywords: Soft Storey, Stiffness, Storey Drift, Storey Displacement, Earthquake, RC Frames
Comparative Study of Various Seismic Analysis Methods for Rc StructureIJERA Editor
A large number of RC frame buildings have been built in India in recent years. Huge number of similarly designed and constructed buildings exist in the various towns and cities situated in moderate to severe seismic zones of the country. Analysis and design of such buildings for static forces is a routine affair these days because of availability of affordable computers and specialized programs which can be used for the analysis. On the other hand, dynamic analysis is a time consuming process and requires additional input related to mass of the structure, and an understanding of structural dynamics for interpretation of analytical results. Reinforced Concrete (RC) frame buildings are most common type of constructions in urban India, which are subjected to several types of forces during their lifetime, such as static forces due to dead and live loads and dynamic forces due to earthquake. To ensure safety against seismic forces of multi-storied building hence, there is need to study of seismic analysis to design earthquake resistance structures. In the present study a multi-storied framed structure is selected, And Linear seismic analysis is done for the building by static method (Equivalent Static Method) and dynamic method (Response Spectrum Method & Time history Method) using ETAB2016 as per the IS-1893-2002-Part-1. As a result, the response of structure has been obtained for considered building models, based on each methods of analysis, and then the results are compared with each other.
A performance-based Analysis is aimed at controlling the structural damage based on precise estimations of proper response parameters. Performance-based 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 iterative 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. In this present study three new R.C.C buildings unsymmetrical in plan (L-shape) (designed according to IS 456:2000) is taken for analysis: 4, 8 and 20 storey to cover the broader spectrum of low rise, medium rise & high rise building construction. Different modelling issues were incorporated through six model for each building were; bare frame (without infill), having infill as membrane, replacing infill as an equivalent strut in previous model. The pushover analysis has been carried out using ETABS, a product of Computers and Structures International. Buildings located in Zone-III have been analyzed Comparative study made for bare frame (without infill), having infill as membrane, replacing infill as an equivalent strut. The results of analysis are compared in terms of Base Shear, Storey Displacement and Drift Ratio.
Effect of Seismic Joint in the Performance of Multi-Storeyed L-Shaped BuildingIOSR Journals
The choices of building shapes and structural systems have significant effect on their seismic performance. While symmetrical buildings result in a fairly uniform distribution of seismic forces throughout its components. Unsymmetrical buildings result in highly indeterminate distribution of forces making the analysis and prediction more complicated. L-shaped buildings are among those unsymmetrical structures which are most commonly found in practice in the form of school, office, commercial buildings. In this work three dimensional models of L-shaped buildings are investigated for their seismic performance, varying bay length and storey height. These models were analysed for three conditions viz with gap, with seismic joint and with neither of these. The modeling of structures analysis is carried out using STAAD Pro V8i, also the performance is analysed providing brick infill and compared with, without infill condition. Performances is measured in terms of displacements, axial forces, bending moments, shear forces and compared for those conditions mentioned in the identified column viz., corner, intermediate and interior
Seismic Evaluation of Multi-storeyed Buildings On Plain Ground And Curve Slop...IJSRD
Most of the hilly regions of India are highly seismic. Buildings on hill slopes differ in a way from other buildings. The soft storeies are typical feature in modern constructions specially in seismic areas which has been experience by the previous studies and past earthquakes. Due to verious type of structures on sloped ground structures are comes under irregularity and asymmetricity. Structures on slope leads to seismic cases.The damages to the structures are determined and acceptable safety can be provided. The linear-elastic analysis is not adequate in highly seismic areas. Thus for the design of building in seimic areas and sloped areas inelastic procedure is used. In the present dissertation work, 3D analytical model of eleven storeyed buildings on plain and curved ground have been generated. Models are analyze using ‘‘ETABSâ€Âto get the behavior of structure due to change in column height in ground story due to curved sloped ground. The analytical model of the building includes all important components that influence the mass, strength, stiffness and deformability of the structure. To study the effect of infill, concrete shear wall and concrete core wall during earthquake, seismic analysis using both elastic and inelastic method of analyses i.e., linear static (equivalent static method), linear dynamic (response spectrum method) has been performed. The deflections at each storey level has been compared by performing equivalent static method, response spectrum method. Storey drifts are within the permissible limit given for linear static and linear dynamic method. Again contrary to common practice, the presence of masonry infills, concrete shear and concrete core wall may affect the overall behavior of structure while subjected to earthquake forces.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

A structure of any type is classified as
statically indeterminate when the number of
unknown reaction or internal forces exceeds
the number of equilibrium equations available
for its analysis. Most of structures are statically
indeterminate
For example, reinforced concrete buildings
are almost always statically indeterminate.
