Modeling and disturbance compensation aided by multibody dynamics analysis in shaking table systems
Mechanical Engineering Journal, 2015 This paper presents an approach for modeling and disturbance compensation in multi-axis shaking table systems. Shaking table system is one of the facilities for seismic tests, where the accurate reproducibility of earthquake acceleration waveforms is ...

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]
, 2004 A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.
