Applied Sciences, 2021 Studies on the seismic response of skewed integral abutment bridges have mainly focused on response under far-field non-pulse-type ground motions, yet the large amplitude and long-period velocity pulses in near-fault ground motions might have significant

Broadband Records of Earthquakes in Deep Gold Mines and a Comparison with Results from SAFOD, California [PDF]
, 2009 For one week during September 2007, we deployed a temporary network of field recorders and accelerometers at four sites within two deep, seismically active mines.

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Influence of near-fault effects and of incident angle of earthquake waves on the seismic inelastic demands of a typical Jack-Up platform [PDF]
, 2013 In this paper, the potential influence of near-fault effects and of the incident angle of earthquake waves to the seismic response of a typical jack-up offshore platform is assessed by means of incremental dynamic analysis involving a three dimensional ...

Real-Time Estimation of Fault Rupture Extent Using Envelopes of Acceleration [PDF]
, 2008 We present a new strategy to estimate the geometry of a rupture on a finite fault in real time for earthquake early warning. We extend the work of Cua and Heaton who developed the virtual seismologist (VS) method (Cua, 2005), which is a Bayesian approach

Seismic Collapse Risk Assessment of Braced Frames under Near-Fault Earthquakes
Metals, 2021 Special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs) located in regions close to earthquake faults may be subjected to near-fault ground motions, often characterized by pulses with long periods.

Earthquake ground motion amplification for surface waves [PDF]
, 2017 Surface waves from earthquakes are known to cause strong damage, especially for larger structures such as skyscrapers and bridges. However, common practice in characterizing seismic hazard at a specific site considers the effect of near-surface geology ...

Pathogenic Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene variants in tumors of non‐NF1 patients and role of R1276
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Somatic variants of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene occur across neoplasms without clinical manifestation of the disease NF1. We identified emerging somatic pathogenic NF1 variants and hotspots, for example, at the arginine finger 1276. Those missense variants provide fundamental information about neurofibromin's role in cancer.
