Development of an online seismic disaster monitoring system in Yalong river

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Rapid post-earthquake assessment of large dams is essential in seismically active mountain regions. We develop an online dam-safety monitoring framework for cascade hydropower stations in the Yalong River Basin.

Seismic performance evaluation of high CFRDs based on incremental dynamic analysis

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
The seismic performance analysis can effectively estimate the risk of structures under earthquake action, so it gradually becomes the important method of seismic safety evaluation.

A Review of Emerging Technologies for an Assessment of Safety and Seismic Vulnerability and Damage Detection of Existing Masonry Structures

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The construction sector has proven to be one of the slowest sectors to embrace technology—a problem that must be addressed. This problem can be quickly and efficiently addressed in certain aspects of seismic engineering: from seismic risk assessment to ...

Liquefaction hazard assessment and ground failure probability analysis in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal

open access: yesGeoenvironmental Disasters, 2022
During the 2015 Gorkha Earthquake (M w7.8), extensive soil liquefaction was observed across the Kathmandu Valley. As a densely populated urban settlement, the assessment of liquefaction potential of the valley is crucial especially for ensuring the ...

New Zealand contributions to the global earthquake model’s earthquake consequences database (GEMECD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Global Earthquake Model’s (GEM) Earthquake Consequences Database (GEMECD) aims to develop, for the first time, a standardised framework for collecting and collating geocoded consequence data induced by primary and secondary seismic hazards to ...

Earthquake Hazard Safety Assessment of Buildings via Smartphone App: A Comparative Study

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
AbstractThe failure of man-made structures is the main cause of more injuries during an earthquake and more economic losses. In addition, as urban areas continue to develop, the need for an effective disaster management system to develop resilient communities increased. To estimate the severity of a building’s damage, several seismic assessment methods

Simplified elastic-plastic analysis procedure for strain-based fatigue assessment of nuclear safety class 1 components under severe seismic loads

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
This paper proposes a simplified elastic-plastic analysis procedure using the penalty factors presented in the Code Case N-779 for strain-based fatigue assessment of nuclear safety class 1 components under severe seismic loads such as safety shutdown ...

Seismic Rigoletto: Hazards, risks and seismic roulette applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Neo-Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (NDSHA), dating back to the turn of the Millennium, is the new multi-disciplinary scenario- and physics-based approach for the evaluation of seismic hazard and safety–guaranteeing “prevention rather than cure.”

Improved Rapid Assessment of Earthquake Hazard Safety of Structures via Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract The vulnerability of structures mainly depends on the structural resistance system of buildings to earthquake. It is unlikely that all existing buildings can be inspected in detail. Therefore, rapid methods for evaluating buildings have been developed over the last decades.
