Dynamic Behaviour of Different Types of Cable-Stayed Bridges Due to Earthquake Loads [PDF]
Construction of large-scale structures has been considered as one of the human's main achievements. With their suitable view and high economical aspects, High-strength steel cables have been developed for analysis and erection of cable-stayed bridges in

Seismic Hazard in Greece: A Comparative Study for the Region of East Macedonia and Thrace
Greece is located in one of the most seismically active regions in Europe. Many seismic hazard studies have been performed for various sites around Greece, at a regional or local scale.

Strong Ground Motion Estimation [PDF]
This progressive sequence of ground motion surprises suggests that the current state ofknowledge in strong motion seismology is probably not adequate to make unequivocal strong ground motion predictions. However, with these caveats in mind, strong ground motion estimation provides substantial value by reducing risks associated with earthquakes and ...

Empirical ground motion prediction
New methods of site-specific ground motion prediction in the time and frequency domains are presented. A large earthquake is simulated as a composite (linear combination) of observed small earthquakes (subevents) assuming Aki-Brune functional models of ...

Observations of strong ground motion during large earthquakes are generally made with strong-motion accelerometers. These observations have a critical role in early warning systems, seismic engineering, source physics studies, basin and site ...

Abstract The past two decades have produced extensive evidence on the manifold and severe outcomes for victims of aggression exposure in the workplace. However, due to the dominating individual‐centered approach, most findings miss a social network perspective.

Rapidly pitching plates in decelerating motion near the ground [PDF]
Birds employ rapid pitch-up motions for different purposes: perching birds use this motion to decelerate and come to a complete stop while hunting birds, like bald eagles, employ it to catch prey and swiftly fly away. Motivated by these observations, our study investigates how natural flyers accomplish diverse flying objectives by rapidly pitching ...

Factors modulating 99mTc‐MAA planar lung dosimetry for 90Y radioembolization
Abstract Purpose To investigate the accuracy and biases of predicted lung shunt fraction (LSF) and lung dose (LD) calculations via 99mTc‐macro‐aggregated albumin (99mTc‐MAA) planar imaging for treatment planning of 90Y‐microsphere radioembolization.
