Earthquakes from the point of view of mechanics of contact interaction of surfaces [PDF]
The work is devoted to earthquake forecasting. The physics of an earthquake, despite the fact that this problem has been facing humanity for more than 100 years, it still remains unclear. What is the reason and why this is a very important problem, which

Effect of surface layer freeze to soil-pile interaction [PDF]
To assess earthquake resistance of new or existing structures and predict earthquake damage of structures, it is important to properly evaluate the response of the structure at the time of the earthquake.

Soil-Structure Interaction of Retaining Walls under Earthquake Loads
The study is devoted to both static and earthquake response analysis of retaining structures acted upon by lateral earth pressure. Two main approaches were implemented in the analysis, namely, the Mononobe-Okabe analytical method and the numerical ...

An application of Wavelet Markov Chains Model to Study Earthquake Occurrence
The Arabian Plate, which is colliding with the Iranian (Eurasian) Plate, is where Iraq is located in the northeastern corner. An active Zagros seismic belt is formed by active seismicity at the interaction between the two plates.

Sea temperature variation associated with the 2021 Haiti Mw 7.2 earthquake and possible mechanism
A catastrophic earthquake (magnitude Mw 7.2) occurred on 14 August 2021 in Haiti. Sea surface temperature (SST) and sea potential temperature (SPT) observed from satellites show pronounced changes prior to the main earthquake event.

Analysis of Soil-Structure Interaction Effects of NPP Structures on Nonhomogeneous Subsoil [PDF]
This paper describes the soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects to the Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) structure with reactor VVER-1200. The simplified 1D and numerical 3D FE models of the nonhomogeneous subsoil are investigated.

Dynamic Responses of Liquid Storage Tanks Caused by Wind and Earthquake in Special Environment
Based on potential flow theory and arbitrary Lagrangian−Eulerian method, shell−liquid and shell−wind interactions are solved respectively. Considering the nonlinearity of tank material and liquid sloshing, a refined 3-D wind−shell&
