Collapsing Response of a Nonlinear Shear-Beam Building Model Excited by a Strong-Motion Pulse at Its Base

We present a simple nonlinear model of a shear-beam building that experiences large nonlinear deformations and collapse when excited by large pulses of strong earthquake ground motion. In this paper, we introduce the model and show that its properties can be selected to be consistent with the damage...
