Isoductile strengths and strength reduction factors of elasto-plastic SDOF systems subjected to simple waveforms.

The inelastic response of elasto plastic SDOF oscillators subjected to 24 simple waveforms was studied. The waveforms contain linear, quadratic, sinusoidal, and triangular acceleration components that repeat for not more than several cycles. Similarities and differences in oscillator response charac...
