Seismic Behavior of Steel Buildings with Combined Rigid and Semi-Rigid Frames
Research
Dr. Shen's expertise and research interests are in the areas of inelastic behavior of steel structures and earthquake engineering, including cyclic behavior and earthquake-resistant design of steel structures, wind and earthquake induced dynamic problems in structures, and seismic retrofit. His current research includes model-based simulations of large-scale structures; application of imaging technology in structural engineering collapse and failure of structures under natural and man-made disasters; performance-based design of steel structures using energy approach; and seismic study of semi-rigid steel frames. Current projects under study include: (1) Performance-based seismic design of concentrically and eccentrically braced frames; (2) Seismic study of deep column steel moment frames using model-based simulation; (3) Seismic design of steel column base plates; (4) Pushover study of building frames; (5) Inelastic behavior of lateral-torsional buckling; (6) Structural heath monitoring of building structures; and (7) Tension-compression balanced steel braced frames. Dr. Shen is a member of EERI, AISC and ASCE.
