Seismic Response Analysis of a Curved Bridge under Near-Fault and Far-Field Ground Motions
Applied Sciences, 2022 To study the influence of near-fault and far-field (FF) ground motions on a curved girder bridge, a 1:10 scale curved bridge shaking table test model was constructed. Three types of ground motions, namely, near-fault pulse (NP), near-fault non-pulse (NN),

GPS source solution of the 2004 Parkfield earthquake [PDF]
, 2014 We compute a series of finite-source parameter inversions of the fault rupture of the 2004 Parkfield earthquake based on 1 Hz GPS records only. We confirm that some of the co-seismic slip at shallow depth (

Geosciences, 2021 Near fault seismic records may contain impulsive motions in velocity-time history. The seismic records can be identified as impulsive and non-impulsive depending on the features that their waveforms have.

Inelastic Displacement Ratio Spectrum for Near-Fault Ground Motions [PDF]
International Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2013 This paper examines the spectrum of inelastic displacement ratio (IDR) for structures subjected to near-fault earthquakes. IDR can be defined as the ratio of the maximum inelastic to the maximum elastic displacement of a structure and allows the computation of its maximum inelastic displacement directly from the corresponding elastic counterpart ...

Finite-element simulations of earthquakes [PDF]
, 1999 This thesis discusses simulations of earthquake ground motions using prescribed ruptures and dynamic failure. Introducing sliding degrees of freedom led to an innovative technique for numerical modeling of earthquake sources.

Effects of Fault Dip and Slip Rake Angles on Near-Source Ground Motions: Why Rupture Directivity Was Minimal in the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, Earthquake [PDF]
, 2004 We study how the fault dip and slip rake angles affect near-source ground velocities and displacements as faulting transitions from strike-slip motion on a vertical fault to thrust motion on a shallow-dipping fault.

The Seismic Behavior of Buildings with Flat Slab Systems under Near-Fault Ground Motions
Düzce Üniversitesi Bilim ve Teknoloji Dergisi, 2023 It is well known that structural displacement or ductility demands of structures subjected to near-fault ground motions are generally greater than ordinary ground motions.
