A Design Methodology for the Seismic Retrofitting of Existing Frame Structures Post-Earthquake Incident Using Nonlinear Control Systems

A structural design methodology for retrofitting weakened frame systems following earthquakes is developed and presented. The design procedure refers to frame systems in their degraded strength and stiffness states and restores their dynamic performance using nonlinear control systems. The control l...
