Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has increasingly been recognized as a strategic lever for enhancing organizational resilience. Although CSR literature is abundant, prior research has not fully explained how distinct CSR types, such as altruistic, promotional, and value‐creating, influence organizational resilience through sustainability ...

Parallel framework for earthquake induced response computation of the SDOF structure
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014 Parallel computing briskly diminishes computation time through simultaneous use of multiple computing resources. In this research, parallel computing techniques have been developed to parallelize a program for obtaining a response of single degree of ...

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]
, 2013 Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...

RESPONSE OF INTERIOR OBJECTS TO EARTHQUAKES
PROCEEDINGS OF THE JSCE EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING SYMPOSIUM, 1995 Shaking table tests were conducted to investigate the response of rectangular wooden blocks and block assemblies of various sizes and slenderness to harmonic and earthquake base excitation. The shaking tests were followed by an analytical and a numerical study of response of single blocks and block assemblies.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Three sets of strength data were selected, including hydrostatic pressure independent within the brittle region (HPI‐B), hydrostatic pressure dependent within the brittle region (HPD‐B), and hydrostatic pressure dependent within the brittle–ductile region (HPD‐BD). For HPI type, the failure envelope within the deviatoric plane remains constant.
