A 3D fibre beam-column element with shear modelling for the inelastic analysis of steel structures
(2010)A force-based fiber beam-column element is proposed for the capacity assessment of frame structures under high shear. The proposed element is suitable for the performance assessment of large scale steel structures, which ... -
Analysis and optimization of dynamically loaded porous metal sliding bearings under conditions of elastohydrodynamic lubrication

Detection of low-dimensional chaos in wind time series
(2009)In the present work we investigated the existence of low-dimensional deterministic chaos in wind time series. The time series were obtained from the New Anchialos (Greece) Air Base Measurement station. In a first place we ... -
Determination of the load - displacement curve of moment resisting steel frames under horizontal loading
(2001)Seismic resistant steel frames are very common in regions of high seismic risk due to their excellent characteristics in terms of strength and ductility. For the evaluation of the total ductility, various methods have been ... -
Evaluation of the ductility features in steel structures with softening moment-rotation behaviour based on a nonconvex optimization formulation
