High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In structural engineering, the Bouc–Wen model of hysteresis is used to describe non-linear hysteretic systems. It was introduced by Bouc and extended by Wen, who demonstrated its versatility by producing a variety of hysteretic patterns. This model is able to capture, in analytical form, a range of hysteretic cycle shapes matching the behaviour of a wide class of hysteretical systems. Due to its versatility and mathematical tractability, the Bouc–Wen model has gained popularity.

At the completion of the initial MRT network, it was one of the two underground station with side platforms due to similar space-constraint problems, and the other one is Bishan. However, Bishan`s layout was changed to have side platforms, not because of similar space-constraint problems, but to make transfers to the Circle Line easier. When the Downtown MRT Line opens in 2013, Chinatown will have side platforms owing to similar space-constraint problems.
