Finding the design collapse capacity of a multi-story RC frame in near-fault based on the collapse risk by using the ratio method [PDF]
The collapse risk role has increasingly drawn engineers’ attention in the performance-based design field and engineers tend to design the structures in a way to be qualified enough to resist earthquakes, especially at near-fault sites.

Dynamic effects such as wind, traffic, and earthquakes can cause loss of life and property. Since tall buildings are more sensitive to these vibrations, vibration control is an important issue in civil engineering.

EVALUATION OF SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF SMRFs WITH AND WITHOUT STEEL SHEAR WALL AGAINST SEQUENCING EARTHQUAKES [PDF]
A better understanding of the dynamic behavior and seismic performance of structures has led to advances in structural design in recent years, but despite recent advances, many existing structures are not earthquake resistant.

The velocity pulse contained in near-fault ground motions have a tremendous impact on dam safety. Previous studies have mainly focused on the response of dams under near-fault seismic records without considering the obliquely incident seismic waves.

An application of adaptive fault-tolerant control to nano-spacecraft [PDF]
Since nano-spacecraft are small, low cost and do not undergo the same rigor of testing as conventional spacecraft, they have a greater risk of failure.

Investigation of Uplift force effects on Seismic Damage of Concrete Gravity Dam in the Near-Fault and Far-Fault Ground Motions:Case Study Shafaroud Dam [PDF]
Uplift force has significant role on dynamic response of concrete gravity dams and also seismic response of dams in near field motion can be considerably different from those observed in the far field and the near –fault ground motions can cause ...

A Multi Record Based Artificial Near Fault Ground Motion Generation Method
Near fault ground motion is a kind of ground motion with great damage, which is difficult to simulate. The amplitude and frequency functions of near fault ground motion vary greatly with time. When a single ground motion is used for simulation, large errors can easily occur.

Seismic imaging of the 1999 Izmit (Turkey) Rupture inferred from the near‐fault recordings [PDF]
We use near‐fault accelerograms to infer the space‐time history of rupture on the fault during the Izmit earthquake. The records show that the ground displacement and velocity near the fault were surprisingly simple. Rupture propagated toward the west at a velocity of about 3 km/s, and toward the east at a remarkably high average velocity of 4.7 km/s ...
