Refined NSA approach for seismic assessment of regular RC frames
The nonlinear time-history analysis is often a time-consuming and impractical procedure. A new computer method, developed in the framework of the Eurocode 8 is proposed in this paper.

Cosmology of F(R) nonlinear massive gravity
The theory of nonlinear massive gravity can be extended into the F(R) form as developed in Phys.Rev.D90, 064051 (2014). Being free of the Boulware-Deser ghost, such a construction has the additional advantage of exhibiting no linear instabilities around ...

Nonstationary Stochastic Simulation of Strong Ground-Motion Time Histories : Application to the Japanese Database [PDF]
For earthquake-resistant design, engineering seismologists employ time-history analysis for nonlinear simulations. The nonstationary stochastic method previously developed by Pousse et al. (2006) has been updated.
