(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This thesis aims at the development of faster Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) models to meet the computational efficiency required by real world applications. A DTA model can be decomposed into several sub-models, of which ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Progressive collapse has become a topic of interest in recent years leading to a greater focus on the resilience of structures. The propagation of a local failure can become catastrophic and lead to multiple deaths, injuries ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Designing structures to be resilient to extreme loads has become a topic of interest in recent years, which has been triggered by the progressive collapse of structures in the past. Structural failure due to the lack of ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)As tall buildings keep becoming taller, they become more susceptible to dynamic excitations such as wind and seismic excitations. One way to reduce structural vibration under dynamic excitations is by placing damping devices ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Because of their original organic shape and the column free space that they provide, the design of grid shell structures challenges architects and structural engineers in more than one way. Very few grid shell building ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)India is the world's second most populous country with a rapidly growing economy and increasing emissions. With the imminent threat of anthropogenic climate change in the coming decades, helping to control India's emissions ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Current trends in structural engineering call for strict performance requirements from buildings prone to extreme earthquakes. Energy dissipation devices are known to be effective in reducing a building's response to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The structural inadequacy of existing unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings to resist possible seismic loading is a serious problem in many parts of the United States, including the Northeast and Midwest. The fact that many ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Amplifying the motion of viscous dampers has been recognized as an effective solution to mitigate structural response to wind and seismic excitation. Motion amplification devices are designed to amplify a small interstory ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The design of spanning systems is a common task that structural engineers perform, and beam theory is one of the first things taught in a mechanics course. This thesis studies a range of spanning systems, and evaluates ...
