Efficiency of Intensity Measures Considering Near- and Far-Fault Ground Motion Records [PDF]

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
This paper focuses on the identification of high-efficiency intensity measures to predict the seismic response of buildings affected by near- and far-fault ground motion records. Near-fault ground motion has received special attention, as it tends to increase the expected damage to civil structures compared to that from ruptures originating further ...

Relationships between ground motion parameters and macroseismic intensity for Italy

open access: yes, 2020
The relation between macroseismic intensity and ground shaking makes it possible to transform instrumental Ground Motion Parameters (GMPs) in macroseismic intensity and vice versa, and is therefore useful for making comparisons between estimates of ...

A drift-correlated ground motion intensity measure: Application to steel frame buildings [PDF]

open access: yesSoil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2020
Estimations of seismic risk in urban areas should include quantifications of the expected damage to civil structures subjected to earthquakes. In buildings, this quantification depends on the maximum inter-story drift (MIDR), among other aspects. In this study, the correlation between several intensity measures (IMs) and the maximum inter-story drift ...

Improved intensity measures considering soil inelastic properties via multi-regression analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
At certain depths, the elastic properties of the ground are not affected by seismic waves. However, as they reach the surface, the soil density decreases and so does its elastic limit.

Challenges in Evaluating Seismic Collapse Risk for RC Buildings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2021
The development of fragility functions that express the probability of collapse of a building as a function of some ground motion intensity measure is an effective tool to assess seismic vulnerability of structures.

An Evolutionary Shaking‐Forecast‐Based Earthquake Early Warning Method

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Here we propose a methodology for Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) able to issue the alert based on the real‐time estimation of the epicentral area where a peak ground Intensity measure is expected to exceed a user‐set ground shaking level.

DESIGN EARTHQUAKES AND SEISMIC DEMAND FOR PBEE IN FAR-FIELD AND NEAR-SOURCE CONDITIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this thesis the problem of identification of design earthquakes and seismic demand for performance based earthquake engineering (PBEE) is studied referring to far-field and near-source conditions.

Selection of appropriate intensity measure for collapse capacity prediction of low to mid-rise steel special moment resisting frames [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017
A parameter that quantitatively represents the strength of a ground motion is called Intensity Measure (IM). The value of an IM for a given hazard level is the output parameter of Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) which is used in structural ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
