Critical response of 2DOF elastic-plastic building structures under double impulse as substitute of near-fault ground motion

The double impulse is introduced as a substitute of the fling-step near-fault ground motion and a critical elastic-plastic response of a 2DOF (two-degree-of-freedom) building structure under the ‘critical double impulse’ is evaluated. Since only the free-vibration appears under such double impulse,...
