Soil-Pile-Structure Interaction in Earthquake Engineering

IACGE 2013, 2013
The advances on soil-pile-structure interaction are described in this study. The nonlinearity of soil is accounted for approximately by a boundary zone model, and the curves of stiffness and damping of the nonlinear soil-pile system are provided. The coupled horizontal and rocking vibration of an embedded foundation (including pile cap) is analyzed by ...

Earthquake Analysis of Arch Dams. I: Dam‐Foundation Interaction

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1993
A three-dimensional boundary element technique for the earthquake analysis of arch dams is presented. The dam and the foundation rock are assumed to be viscoelastic domains, the latter being boundless. Under the assumption of linear behavior, the dam-foundation rock interaction and the traveling-wave effect are represented in a direct and rigorous way (

Interactive local earthquake location on a PC

Computers & Geosciences, 1992
Abstract Two small and fast programs for interactive location of local earthquakes are presented; one considers the medium as a homogeneous halfspace, the other works with velocity models representing laterally (and for some special situations, radially) homogeneous media.

The Interactions between Earthquakes and Climate

Applied and Computational Engineering
Exploring the interactions between climate change and seismic activityspecifically how each influences the otherremains critical yet unresolved in the science community. This research summarises various aspects of earthquake-climate interaction, addressing how seismic activity affects the climate with and without volcanic eruptions, the influence of ...

Dynamic Soil–Structure Interaction in Earthquake Analysis

2018
In the last thirty years or so, the dynamic soil–structure interaction (DSSI) has undertaken giant leaps in terms of application. From being perceived initially as a utopian exercise in the realms of theoretical physics (understood by few), in the early 1960s it has stormed into the hard nosed arena of professional design and has possibly cut itself a ...

Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Soil–Structure Interaction

2010
In earthquake engineering, geotechnics plays a prime part. To begin with the knowledge of soil mechanics for areas related to seismic history is essential. The understanding of basic dynamics as given in earlier chapters is a must. It is vital that shaking of the soft ground in earthquaks must have historical records. The rupture of fault as a cause of

Earthquake clustering controlled by shear zone interaction

2019
Earthquakes are known to cluster in time, from historical and palaeoseismic studies, but the mechanism(s) responsible for clustering, such as evolving dynamic topography, fault interaction, and strain-storage in the crust are poorly quantified, and hence not well understood.

Prediction of Interacting Geophysical Systems : Earthquakes

We map the phase space of lagged magnitude and time intervals of USGS earthquake sequences from regions of colliding plates with restriction on magnitude 7.5 or higher. First thing that is apparent is the similarity of the maps to Lotka-Volterra competitive dynamics.

FRAME3D: Interactive, three-dimensional display of earthquake hypocenters

Computers & Geosciences, 1985
Abstract This paper describes a method for vector-graphics, three-dimensional display of point locations specified by latitude, longitude, and depth and the application of this method to the display of earthquake hypocenters. A three-dimensional image of earthquake hypocenters seems to be a powerful tool in the tectonic interpretation of seismicity ...
