Análisis de una estructura con disipadores sometidos a espectros de diseño y de control

In this paper we considered two models of extended plasticity for the structural elements and one model of plasticity for the ADAS and TADAS devices. Then, the technique of multimodal pushover is described, as well as the method of the capacity spectrum used to calculate the performance point of the structure. This structure was initially calculated by using design spectra and it had to be reinforced with ADAS devices in order to avoid its collapse for the control spectrum which has higher ordinates than the design one.
