Components interaction in timber framed masonry structures subjected to lateral forces [PDF]
Structures with timber framed masonry represent a special typology that is frequently found in Europe and other countries of the world. They are traditional buildings, non-engineered, which showed an unexpected redundancy during earthquakes where ...

Analysis of changes in post-seismic landslide distribution and its effect on building reconstruction [PDF]
Six years after the devastating Ms 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake, new landslides, debris flows, and flash floods still occur frequently in the earthquake-stricken regions.

Earthquakes: from chemical alteration to mechanical rupture
In the standard rebound theory of earthquakes, elastic deformation energy is progressively stored in the crust until a threshold is reached at which it is suddenly released in an earthquake.

Interaction of piled foundation with a rupturing normal fault [PDF]
Post-seismic observations in the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake in Turkey have indicated that piled foundations may be less suitable than stiff mat foundations in defending a structure against a major normal fault rupturing underneath.

Application of Soil Structure Interaction on Building with Basement using Nonlinear Soil Springs
In a typical building design, the interaction between building and surrounding soils is often ignored. Since soil is deformable and has limited capacity to resist loads, this interaction, called soil-structure interaction (SSI), could alter building ...

Structure-Ground Interaction in Earthquakes
A method of analysis is presented for determining elastic structure-ground interaction effects of single-story structures under earthquake loads. The method derives an equivalent SDF model for the relative story displacement, incorporating the effects of horizontal and rotational base flexibility in a structure.

Reawakening of large earthquakes in south central Chile: The 2016 Mw 7.6 Chiloé event
On 25 December 2016, the Mw 7.6 Chiloé earthquake broke a plate boundary asperity in south central Chile near the center of the rupture zone of the Mw 9.5 Valdivia earthquake of 1960. To gain insight on decadal‐scale deformation trends and their relation

An earthquake response spectrum method for linear light secondary substructures [PDF]
YesEarthquake response spectrum is the most popular tool in the seismic analysis and design of structures. In the case of combined primary-secondary (P-S) systems, the response of the supporting P substructure is generally evaluated without considering
