Earthquake response at Grangemouth

Géotechnique, 1993
The Grangemouth industrial zone in Scotland is on an area of deep soft clay. Extensive site investigations related to industrial development which included seismic cone testing enabled accurate numerical calculations to be carried out to assess the response of this soft site to earthquake excitation.

ON THE EARTHQUAKE RESPONSE OF ROTORS

Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2006
In this paper, the influence of the rotation speed on the earthquake response of rotors is investigated by means of a simple model with only two degrees of freedom. Some worth noticing properties of the eigenmodes and the transfer functions in the presence of solid gyroscopic effect are discussed.

Site Response to Vertical Earthquake Motion

Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Soil Dynamics IV, 2008
Evaluation of ground response is one of the fundamental problems in earthquake geotechnical engineering. Current practice has tended to focus on horizontal earthquake motion and ignore the effect of vertical motion. Because of strong vertical ground motions recorded in recent earthquakes, great concern has arisen over the behavior of vertical motion ...
