A novel safety assessment of the building vibration evolution undergoing a disastrous earthquake
, 2023 Abstract It designs a disastrous earthquake as the referenced event, the known Chi-chi earthquake (1999) in Taiwan, to characterize and compare a monitored displacement of a building before and after that event. It suggests that period and damping nearly increase as the magnitude increases for the smaller distance between the building and the ...
