Generation of Site-Dependent Earthquake Ground Motion Parameters

Nepalese Journal of Engineering, 2005
The Kathmandu Valley, with many monumental and heritage structures, lies in a zone of high seismic risk. The neo-tectonic activities in the Himalayan region and the unconsolidated soil sediment are the major reasons for the high intensities of the ground motion in the valley.

Influence of Variable Side-Stay Geometry on the Shimmy Dynamics of an Aircraft Dual-Wheel Main Landing Gear [PDF]

, 2013
Commercial aircraft are designed to fly but also need to operate safely and efficiently as vehicles on the ground. During taxiing, take-off, and landing the landing gear must operate reliably over a wide range of forward velocities and vertical loads ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Prediction Equation for Horizontal Ground Motion Peak Values in the Loess Plateau Region

Applied Sciences
This study collects all strong motion records from 134 seismic events in the Loess Plateau region of China between 2020 and 2023. The corresponding ground motion attenuation dataset is constructed through data processing and screening, including 1149 ...

INFLUENCE OF GROUND MOTION PARAMETERS ON SEISMIC RESPONSE

Conference proceedings (Croatian Conference on Earthquake Engineering)
To establish a connection with structural vulnerability, ground motions generate intricate datasets distinguished by various properties. The objective of the investigation is to evaluate the impact of specific seismic record properties on the nonlinear structural response of buildings, with the ultimate goal of determining the characteristics that ...

Nonstationary Stochastic Simulation of Strong Ground-Motion Time Histories : Application to the Japanese Database [PDF]

, 2012
For earthquake-resistant design, engineering seismologists employ time-history analysis for nonlinear simulations. The nonstationary stochastic method previously developed by Pousse et al. (2006) has been updated.

Bounds on Cubic Lorentz-Violating Terms in the Fermionic Dispersion Relation

, 2004
We study the recently proposed Lorentz-violating dispersion relation for fermions and show that it leads to two distinct cubic operators in the momentum.

Ground-motion prediction equations for southern Spain and southern Norway obtained using the composite model perspective [PDF]

, 2006
In this paper, two sets of earthquake ground-motion relations to estimate peak ground and response spectral acceleration are developed for sites in southern Spain and in southern Norway using a recently published composite approach.

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

FEBS 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 ...

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...
