Seismic Response of Container Crane under Near-Field and Far-Field Ground Motions
In this study, the seismic response of a container crane under near-field and far-field ground motions was investigated using a shaking table test on a 1/20 scale crane.

Seismic Response Analysis of a Curved Bridge under Near-Fault and Far-Field Ground Motions
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),

Unreinforced masonry (URM) is considered one of the most cost-effective structural typologies for low-rise buildings in seismic regions. Near-field (NF) ground motions are sometimes characterized by high-velocity pulses that are typically more ...

Fragility Analysis of Gantry Crane Subjected to Near-Field Ground Motions [PDF]
A gantry crane located in a near-field earthquake-prone area is selected in this paper as an example, and the nonlinear finite element (FE) model is used considering the material nonlinearity including plastic hinges and the second order (P − Δ ...

Pulse-like ground motion simulation using wavelet-based Hilbert transforms [PDF]
In areas near active faults, ground motions usually show a large pulse in velocity time history. These near-field pulse-like ground motions increase the structural failure and cause extensive damage to structures.

Detection Limits and Near‐Field Ground Motions of Fast and Slow Earthquakes [PDF]
AbstractWe investigate theoretical limits to detection of fast and slow seismic events, and spatial variations of ground motion expected from M 6 earthquakes at short epicentral distances. The analyses are based on synthetic velocity seismograms calculated with the discrete wavenumber method assuming seismic velocities and attenuation properties of the

Influence of the Seismic Wave Velocity of the Damage Zone on Near-Field Ground Motions
In burst-prone deep underground engineering, seismic waves generated from a near-field ground motion event may play a critical role in causing localized rockburst damage.

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 ...

Seismic Energy Response of SDOF Systems Subjected to Long-Period Ground Motion Records
To provide an important reference for the energy-based seismic design of long-period structures, the elastoplastic dynamic analysis program is employed to study the seismic energy response of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems under two types of ...
