Abstract
This paper examines the seismic response of 2-, 4-, 8-, 12-, and 16-story steel framed buildings with self-centering energy dissipative (SCED) bracing members. The structures are assumed to be located in Los Angeles, California. Identical buildings equipped with buckling restrained braces (BRB) are also studied for comparison purposes. Incremental static analysis and nonlinear dynamic analysis under ground motion ensembles corresponding to three hazard levels were performed. The SCED frames generally experienced smaller peak story drifts, less damage concentration over the building height, and smaller residual lateral deformations compared to the BRB system. Higher floor acceleration peaks were observed in the SCED frames due to the sharper transitions between elastic and inelastic response assumed in the analysis. The study also indicated that higher design seismic loads may be needed for low-rise SCED and BRB frames in order to improve their collapse prevention performance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
