Effects of Structural and Seismic Factors on the Constant-Strength Ductility Spectra Based on NGA-West2 Database by Jinjun Hu, Qinghui Lai, Xuan Liu, Lili Xie

“…Conclusions are drawn based on the mean constant-strength ductility spectra. (1) With respect to the effects of structural factors, the variation trend of the ductility spectra is highly consistent with increasing T, and the ductility spectra are usually larger for larger ζ and smaller Cy and k2. (2) With respect to the seismic factors, the ductility spectra show obvious differences in different periods; however, some parameters, such as PGA, have no influence on the ductility spectra. …”
