Behavior of overlap core steel encased BRBs with different end connections
Balıkçı, Elif Müge; BOZKURT, MEHMET BAKIR; Topkaya, Cem (2025-08-01)
This paper presents findings from an experimental program aimed at investigating the behavior of full-scale overlapped core steel-encased buckling-restrained braces (OCSE-BRBs) with different end connections. The primary v...
Development of a loading protocol for long links in eccentrically braced frames
Al-Janabi, Musab Aied Qissab; Balıkçı, Elif Müge; Topkaya, Cem (2022-06-01)
© 2022 Elsevier LtdLoading protocols are generally used for qualification testing of structural members. In eccentrically braced frames (EBFs), the connections of short links attached to columns are evaluated based on the ...
Seismic performance evaluation of eccentrically braced frames with long links using FEMA P695 methodology
Balıkçı, Elif Müge; Al-Janabi, Musab Aied Qissab; Topkaya, Cem (2022-05-01)
© 2022 Elsevier LtdShort links that primarily yield under shear are usually preferred in eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) due to their high rotation and energy dissipation capacities. Long links that yield under flexure ...
Effects of cyclic strain hardening on performance of eccentrically braced frames
Balıkçı, Elif Müge; Topkaya, Cem (2021-12-01)
Performance based seismic design (PBSD) procedures have been developed in recent years. Studies conducted in the past revealed that strain hardening ratio (SHR) used in numerical modeling can be influential on the performa...
