Influences of different inclination modes on seismic response of inclined liquefiable site
In the study of the failure and large deformation of inclined site caused by lateral flow expansion of soil after seismic liquefaction, different inclined modes will have a certain impact on the test results, but the research results on the impact ...

Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...

External Vibrations on Early‐Age Concrete: A Review
Scientific illustration of external vibration, their influencing properties and effects, possible outcomes and measures adapted. ABSTRACT Early‐age concrete exhibits limited mechanical strength, making it highly susceptible to external disturbances such as vibrations from construction activities, traffic, or nearby machinery which can disrupt internal ...

Probabilistic prediction of rupture length, slip and seismic ground motions for an ongoing rupture: implications for early warning for large earthquakes [PDF]
Earthquake EarlyWarning (EEW) predicts future ground shaking based on presently available data. Long ruptures present the best opportunities for EEW since many heavily shaken areas are distant from the earthquake epicentre and may receive long warning ...

ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.

ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification

Physical Model Method for Seismic Study of Concrete Dams [PDF]
The study of the dynamic behaviour of concrete dams by means of the physical model method is very useful to understand the failure mechanism of these structures to action of the strong earthquakes.
