Merging energy-based design criteria and reliability-based methods exploring a new concept.

This paper examines the potential development of a probabilistic design methodology, considering hysteretic energy demand, within the framework of performance-based seismic design of buildings. This article does not propose specific energy-based criteria for design guidelines, but explores how such...
