Numerical models and ductile ultimate deformation response of post-tensioned self-centering moment connections.
New steel moment-resisting connections that incorporate post-tensioning elements to provide a self-centering capacity and devices to dissipate seismic input energy have recently been proposed and experimentally validated. Experimental studies have confirmed that these connections are capable of unde...
