An Intensity Measure for Seismic Input Energy Demand of Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Systems [PDF]

open access: yesCivil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2018
Nonlinear dynamic analyses are performed to compute the maximum relative input energy per unit mass for 21 multi-degree-of-freedom systems (MDOF) with preselected target fundamental periods of vibration ranging from 0.2 to 4.0 s and 6 target inter-story ...

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Ground motion selection for seismic slope displacement analysis using a generalized intensity measure distribution method

open access: yes, 2017
Selecting ground motions based on the generalized intensity measure distribution (GIMD) approach has many appealing features, but it has not been fully verified in engineering practice.

Correction Factors to Account for Seismic Directionality Effects: Case Study of the Costa Rican Strong Motion Database

open access: yesGeosciences
This article presents the findings of a study on the directionality effect observed in strong motion records. We set out to establish ratios between several seismic intensity measures that depend on sensor orientation (e.g., GMar, Larger) and others that

Pathways and pitfalls: a qualitative study of student experiences in biomedical science education

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biomedical science students from underrepresented backgrounds face barriers including financial strain, disrupted laboratory access and cultural exclusion. Peer networks provide vital support when institutional systems are difficult to navigate. To create inclusive learning environments and achieve academic success, educators should blend active, hands‐

Influence of Ground-Motion Intensity Measure Selection on Bayesian Fragility Analysis of RCS Frame Structures

open access: yesBuildings
This study focuses on RCS frame structures and selects six different types of ground-motion intensity measures (IMs), including peak ground acceleration (PGA), spectral acceleration at the fundamental period Sa(T1), the modified intensity measure S ...

Effect of Earthquake Ground Motion Duration on the Seismic Response of a Low-Rise RC Building

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
This paper investigates the effect of earthquake ground motion duration on the seismic response of a low-rise reinforced concrete shear wall building. Two sets of spectrally equivalent ground motion sets were determined to isolate the effect of duration ...
