A literature review on the spectral content of seismic ground motion indicates that a clear predominant frequency in earthquakes is very difficult to define.

Performance of base-isolated moment resisting steel frames subjected to pounding effects under near-field earthquake ground motions [PDF]
Despite conservative requirements of existing building code regarding clear seismic gap distance of base-isolated (BI) structures to surrounding moat walls, seismic performance of these structures is still ambiguous under severe earthquake ground motions

The velocity pulse and displacement fling-step pulse signatures may be present in a near-field earthquake ground motion record. It is generally known that near-field ground motion with pulse effects accelerated the building drift.

Laser Cooling of an Optomechanical Crystal Resonator to Its Quantum Ground State of Motion [PDF]
Quantum mechanics continues to intrigue us with bizarre predictions that seemingly run counter to our everyday classical intuition. Superposition, zero-point motion, entanglement, and inescapable bounds on measurement precision are just a few purely ...

A key aspect of ground-shaking map calculation is represented by ground-motion predictive equations (GMPEs). In fact, ground-shaking maps obtained soon after an earthquake are calculated by integrating observed data and ground-motion estimates from GMPEs

After coupling long-period seismic motions with the soil–structure interaction (SSI) effect, isolated structures can easily be resonated, and the seismic response of the structure is significantly enhanced.

The continuous collision of the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate has resulted in several earthquakes in the Himalayan region. The 6.9 Mw 2011 Sikkim earthquake, which caused immense damage to the built environment in Sikkim, was triggered by an ...
