Comparison of Two Mechanics-Based Methods for Simplified Structural Analysis in Vulnerability Assessment by H. Crowley, B. Borzi, R. Pinho, M. Colombi, M. Onida

“…Until such problems can be resolved, it is worthwhile considering the mechanics of simplified analytical vulnerability assessment methods and validating this part of the methodology through comparisons with detailed structural models. This paper looks at two mechanics-based vulnerability assessment methods (DBELA and SP-BELA) and compares the nonlinear static response predicted with these methods with finite elements-based nonlinear analyses of prototype buildings. …”
