Triggered seismicity associated with the 1990 Nicoya, Costa Rica, M-w=7.0 earthquake [PDF]
, 2009 The 25 March 1990 (M-w = 7.0) subduction megathrust earthquake that occurred offshore the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, produced a large number of aftershocks on the subduction plate interface as expected and preceded an unusual sequence of earthquakes ...

Numerical Investigation of the Pile–Soil Interaction Problem under Dynamic Loads
Applied Sciences, 2023 One of the most important problems of geotechnical engineering is the design of pile foundations. Piles are generally designed for vertical and horizontal static loads.

Fault Interactions Enhance High‐Frequency Earthquake Radiation
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 AbstractFault complexity has been linked to high‐frequency earthquake radiation, although the underlying physical mechanisms are not well understood. Fault complexity is commonly modeled with rough single faults; however, real‐world faults are additionally complex, existing within networks of other faults.

Dynamic Response of Deepwater Pile Foundation Bridge Piers under Current-wave and Earthquake Excitation [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2022 Pile foundation bridges are structures extending in the middle of the sea, so they are subject to currents, waves, and earthquake forces. This article presents a hybrid simulation that was used with input excitations of different current velocities, wave

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

On the earthquake predictability of fault interaction models [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2014 AbstractSpace‐time clustering is the most striking departure of large earthquakes occurrence process from randomness. These clusters are usually described ex‐post by a physics‐based model in which earthquakes are triggered by Coulomb stress changes induced by other surrounding earthquakes. Notwithstanding the popularity of this kind of modeling, its ex‐

Towards the “ultimate earthquake-proof” building: Development of an integrated low-damage system [PDF]
, 2015 The 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence has highlighted the severe mismatch between societal expectations over the reality of seismic performance of modern buildings.

Elevated tank due to earthquake even [PDF]
, 2017 Elevated reservoirs are mainly used for storing of variety water. During earthquake activity the fluid exerts impulsive and convective (sloshing) effects on the walls and bottom of tank.
