Submission details and requirements
Submission Spreadsheet
Please fill out the following spreadsheet with information on team members and predictions: Submission-ROUND2.xlsx
Analysis report
Contestants must also submit a report detailing the model calibration and structural analysis methodology and assumptions adopted. While there are no page or formatting requirements, the report should contain sufficient information to allow readers to reproduce the results. Reports should include (but not be limited to) the following information:
-
Processing of acceleration data (e.g. high-pass filters)
-
Adopted structural analysis software and approach (e.g. OpenSEEs, fiber element modelling)
-
General analysis information (e.g. P-Delta considerations, 2D or 3D analysis)
-
Material/member hysteretic properties (e.g. Mander and Chang (1994), Takeda)
-
Member properties (e.g. rigid end zones, plastic hinge lengths)
-
Damping model (e.g. Caughey Damping, constant 3% damping ratio)
-
Solver algorithm (e.g. Newmark-beta average)
Submission Process
Predictions and the analysis report must be submitted via e-mail by the 23rd of July 2021. Late submissions will not be accepted. The organizers reserve the right to shift the submission date back further for the betterment of contestants if required.
