Tibetan-style ancient houses, typical dwellings in this region, reflect the Tibetan people\u2019s adaptation to the plateau environment and hold significant cultural, historical, and ecological value. This study used theoretical and finite element analyses to compare the seismic performance of Tibetan houses under various conditions. It evaluated the effects of three types of seismic waves\u2014with and without earth walls\u2014having peak accelerations of 0.4\u2009g and 0.6\u2009g, focusing on interstory displacement angles and top accelerations. Finite element analyses were also conducted on through-tenon and straight-tenon joints to examine stress distributions and hysteresis curves for transverse and smooth grain orientations. Results showed that earth walls significantly enhanced the stiffness and seismic stability of the timber frame. Additionally, through-tenons exhibited fuller hysteresis curves than straight tenons, demonstrating superior energy dissipation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0334654","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,27]],"date-time":"2025-10-27T17:28:25Z","timestamp":1761586105000},"page":"e0334654","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Seismic performance evaluation of ancient Tibetan residential structures and energy dissipation of Mortise-Tenon Joints"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6895-3406","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jie","family":"Tang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jingran","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dewen","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0334654.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"55","DOI":"10.1016\/j.conbuildmat.2015.05.093","article-title":"Seismic strengthening and seismic improvement of timber structures","volume":"97","author":"MA Parisi","year":"2015","journal-title":"Construction and Building Materials"},{"key":"pone.0334654.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"432","DOI":"10.1016\/j.conbuildmat.2017.05.112","article-title":"Seismic resilient lateral load resisting system for timber structures","volume":"149","author":"A Hashemi","year":"2017","journal-title":"Construction and Building Materials"},{"issue":"2","key":"pone.0334654.ref003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"173","DOI":"10.1007\/s00107-019-01389-9","article-title":"Seismic protection technologies for timber structures: a review","volume":"77","author":"D Ugalde","year":"2019","journal-title":"Eur J Wood Prod"},{"issue":"2","key":"pone.0334654.ref004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"289","DOI":"10.1080\/15583058.2020.1830451","article-title":"Dissipative Bracing Systems for Seismic Upgrading of New and Existing Timber Structures","volume":"15","author":"B Faggiano","year":"2020","journal-title":"International Journal of Architectural Heritage"},{"issue":"2","key":"pone.0334654.ref005","first-page":"392","article-title":"Experimental study on the seismic performance of mortise and tenon joints in timber structures of rural dwellings in southern mountainous areas","volume":"60","author":"C Yang","year":"2024","journal-title":"J Southwest Jiaotong Univ"},{"issue":"1","key":"pone.0334654.ref006","first-page":"165","article-title":"Experimental study on the seismic performance of mortise and tenon joints of wood -
