Optimum Performance-Based Seismic Design Using a Hybrid Optimization Algorithm

A hybrid optimization method is presented to optimum seismic design of steel frames considering four performance levels. These performance levels are considered to determine the optimum design of structures to reduce the structural cost. A pushover analysis of steel building frameworks subject to eq...
