Sentence examples for mean structural collapse from inspiring English sources

Severe MS-severe AS sequences could significantly reduce the mean structural collapse capacity/maximum drift capacity of substandard bridge piers compared to severe MS only attacks.

Similarly, the mean structural collapse capacity for the CFRP, conventional steel, and hybrid repaired bridge columns under the severe MS-severe AS from ensemble 2 record set (Fig. 12f, h) was 0.5, 0.46 and 0.5 g, respectively [i.e., 38.8, 27.7 and 38.8%% increase in the mean structural collapse capacity, respectively, compared to the unrepaired bridge (0.36 g)].

The obtained mean structural collapse capacity for the MS only compared to MS-AS (Fig. 12a, e) is reduced as from 0.83 to 0.33 g; and from 0.69 to 0.36 g, for the ensemble 1 and 2 bin of records, respectively (60.0 and 47.8 % reduction in mean structural collapse capacity, respectively).
