Optimization of Viscoelastic Tuned Mass Damper Systems Subjected to Coloured Excitations

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 12, Page 3244-3264, 10 October 2025.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, there has been growing interest in innovative vibration control strategies to improve the structural reliability of buildings and civil structures against earthquakes, windstorms and other dynamic excitations. One of the most effective methods for reducing dynamic responses is the implementation of tuned mass dampers (TMDs),

Seismic Fragility Assessment of a Multi‐Span Masonry Arch Bridge Using a Discontinuum Modeling Approach

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 13, Page 3320-3340, 25 October 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the seismic performance of a multi‐span masonry arch bridge using an advanced modeling approach based on the Distinct Element Method. Located in Italy and constructed of regular stone masonry, the bridge features three consecutive arch vaults with similar geometry.

Seismic Performance Evaluation of Lead High‐Damping Rubber Bearings Tested by Real‐Time Hybrid Simulations at Low Temperatures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 11, Page 2805-2823, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Lead high‐damping rubber (LHDR) bearings, composed of high‐damping rubber and lead core, are effective isolation devices that address increased seismic demands. The temperature effect on the behavior of LHDR bearings is significant, leading to increased initial stiffness at low temperatures.

Characterization of response spectra through the statistics of oscillator response [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
This paper presents the physical relationships that exist between the response spectra and the Fourier Transform of strong-motion accelerograms through the extreme value statistics of oscillator response. Under the assumption of a stationary response, it

Broadband stochastic simulation of earthquake ground motions with multiple strong phases with an application to the 2023 Kahramanmaraş, Turkey (Türkiye), earthquake

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 2399-2435, August 2025.
Stochastic ground motion simulation models are often less accurate at lower frequencies than at higher frequencies when fitting recorded data unless supplemented by a deterministic forward directivity velocity pulse model. Moreover, time‐modulated stochastic models, which adjust ground motion amplitudes over time, typically use functions that fail to ...

Zero baseline correction of strong-motion accelerograms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
A new method is proposed for standard baseline correction of strong-motion accelerograms. It is based on high-pass filtering of the uncorrected digitized accelerogram data.
