Sentence examples for behavior of structural systems from inspiring English sources
Non-elastic behavior in conventional analyses was limited to the flexural yielding of beams and columns, whereas experimental and analytical studies revealed the effects of connections in the general behavior of structural systems, especially during earthquakes or the progressive collapse of structures as investigated by Bao et al. (2014), Lew et al. (2014) and Lowes and Altoontash (2003).
However, these collapse criteria may not accurately represent the overall collapse behavior of structural systems due to redistribution and variation of damage within the structure.
