Seismic Energy Response of SDOF Systems Subjected to Long-Period Ground Motion Records
To provide an important reference for the energy-based seismic design of long-period structures, the elastoplastic dynamic analysis program is employed to study the seismic energy response of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems under two types of ...

Investigation of Uplift force effects on Seismic Damage of Concrete Gravity Dam in the Near-Fault and Far-Fault Ground Motions:Case Study Shafaroud Dam [PDF]
Uplift force has significant role on dynamic response of concrete gravity dams and also seismic response of dams in near field motion can be considerably different from those observed in the far field and the near –fault ground motions can cause ...

Studies on the seismic response of skewed integral abutment bridges have mainly focused on response under far-field non-pulse-type ground motions, yet the large amplitude and long-period velocity pulses in near-fault ground motions might have significant

Seismic Response of a Historical Masonry Bridge under Near and Far-fault Ground Motions
Historical masonry arch bridges which might be vulnerable to natural disasters are important part of the cultural heritage. Natural disasters, especially earthquakes can inflict damage to these structural systems. This paper aims to investigate a comparison of the effects of near and far-fault ground motions on the seismic response of masonry arch ...

Assessment of Near-Fault Ground Motion Effects on the Fragility Curves of Tall Steel Moment Resisting Frames [PDF]
Nowadays it is common to use the fragility curves in probabilistic methods to determine the collapse probability resulting from an earthquake. The uncertainties exist in intensity and frequency content of the earthquake records are considered as the most

Seismic Response Analysis of a Curved Bridge under Near-Fault and Far-Field Ground Motions
To study the influence of near-fault and far-field (FF) ground motions on a curved girder bridge, a 1:10 scale curved bridge shaking table test model was constructed. Three types of ground motions, namely, near-fault pulse (NP), near-fault non-pulse (NN),

Shaking Table Test of a Base-Isolated Frame Structure under Near-Fault Ground Motions
A five-story moment frame structural model with a base isolation system was tested on a shaking table. The isolation system comprised both linear natural rubber bearing (LNR) and nonlinear viscous dampers (NLVDs).

Abstract Precast post-tensioned segmental (PPS) bridge piers mitigate global and local damages of bridge structures through natural hinges (joints between their segments) and rocking motion of their segments. The application of the PPS piers is currently growing in Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) where the segments are manufactured offsite with

Spectral floor-acceleration demands are necessary for the seismic design of acceleration-sensitive non-structural components (NSCs). Existing studies to estimate floor response spectra (FRS) using empirical equations are based on elasto-plastic and ...
