Diseño elástico y análisis no lineal para terremoto esperado de edificios de alta importancia ocupacional sometidos a cargas sísmicas en Puerto Rico
(2007-12)
Los códigos actuales de diseño son cada vez más estrictos para el diseño de las estructuras que necesitan mantenerse operando continuamente durante un evento de terremoto. Las estructuras tales como hospitales, edificios ...
Influencia de la rigidez a la flexión del pilote sobre las curvas P-Y de suelos arenosos
(2009-12)
The laterally loaded pile problem involves a fourth order differential equation, where a complex relationship between the lateral deflections of the pile and the reactions generated by the surrounding soil take place. A ...
Evaluation of the lateral stiffness for the seismic analysis and design of squat RC walls
(2019-05-15)
Reinforced concrete (RC) squat walls provide most of the structure lateral strength and stiffness to resist earthquakes and wind loadings in nuclear power plants and other buildings. A reduction factor is usually applied ...
Shear strength and displacement capacity of squat reinforced concrete shear walls
(2016)
Squat reinforced concrete (RC) walls are essential structural components in nuclear power facilities (NPP) and in many civil structures. An adequate prediction of the shear strength and displacement capacity of these ...
Dynamic lateral response of single piles considering soil inertia contribution
(2007-05)
The most widely used model to perform the analysis of piles under lateral loads consists in modeling the pile as a series of beam elements and representing the soil as a group of unconnected, concentrated springs perpendicular ...
Análisis no lineal tridimensional estático y dinámico de pórticos de hormigón armado con deficiencia en el hormigón de columnas
(2015-07)
This work consisted in developing and programming a three dimensional non-linear analysis model for reinforced concrete structures using the incremental method for the application of loads or displacements and the Newmark ...
Evaluación de mezclas de arena y goma triturada como relleno de muros de contención
(2008-10)
Esta tesis estudió una alternativa de reciclaje de neumáticos viejos en la forma de neumático triturado como material de relleno en muros de contención. Este material reciclado se considera costo efectivo y tiene ventajas ...
Experimental cyclic behavior of reinforced concrete wall houses loaded in their weak direction
(2007)
This research presents a study of the lateral capacity of the reinforced concrete houses constructed in Puerto Rico. These houses are built with a reinforced concrete roof slab and three reinforced concrete walls oriented ...
Design of residential housing using welded wire mesh reinforcement and linear evaluation of the walls under dynamic loadings
(2017-05)
This thesis presents the results of the design of residential housing using welded wire mesh reinforcement (WWR) and the lineal evaluation of the shear walls reinforced with WWR under dynamic loadings. Typical residential ...
