Seismic risk management of existing reinforced concrete buildings in the Cascadia subduction zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Through evolution of building design codes in active seismic regions, life safety performance limit state has been met. Unacceptably high economic loss during the 1994 Northridge and 1995 Kobe earthquakes, however, has brought forward a new design ...

Selection of the Appropriate Methodology for Earthquake Safety Assessment of Dam Structures

open access: yes, 2012
Important lessons which reflect the seismic performance of dams under large earthquakes are available in the literature, (1971, San Fernando earthquake; 1985, Mexico earthquake; 1999, Kocaeli earthquake; 2001, Bhuj earthquake; 2008, Wenchuan earthquake). Seismic behavior of dams subjected to these severe earthquakes shows that earthquake safety of dams
