Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis using a new ground motion intensity measure [PDF]
Dyna, 2016 The main objective of this work is to compute the probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for a region of Mexico using a new ground motion intensity measure which is based on the spectral acceleration and a parameter proxy of the spectral shape named Np ...

Intensity Measures of Consumer Preference [PDF]
Operations Research, 1980 To design successful new products and services, managers need to measure consumer preferences relative to product attributes. Many existing methods use ordinal measures. Intensity measures have the potential to provide more information per question, thus allowing more accurate models or fewer consumer questions (lower survey cost, less consumer ...

Seismic performance of moment frames under multiple fling-step pulse ground motions
Jurnal Ilmiah SINERGI, 2022 The displacement fling-step pulse seldom signatures near-field earthquake in its ground motions. It is well recognized that the near-field ground motion with velocity pulse amplifies the building drift larger than the regular ground motion.
