Nonlinear Analysis Of Asymmetric Rc Building Under Repeated Ground Motions

This study deals with the nonlinear response of an asymmetrical reinforced concrete building under single and repeated earthquake ground motions. Two main categories of ground motions, namely near-fault and far-fault, have been taken into consideration in this study. A full scale of a four-storey re...
