Evaluation of practical equivalent seismic input methods for fault-crossing bridges considering dynamic and permanent ground displacement [PDF]
Scientific ReportsDuring major earthquakes, fault ruptures frequently lead to significant differences in ground motions across the fault trace. As a result, fault-crossing bridges are subjected to complex seismic demands characterized by the combined effects of transient ...

Numerical Analysis of Reverse Dip-slip Fault Rupture on Steel Buildings [PDF]
Computational Engineering and Physical Modeling, 2020 In seismic events, rupture resulted from the earthquake causes two types of ground deformation, namely, the permanent pseudo-static deviations on fault and transient dynamic fluctuations away from fault.

Safety of Nuclear Power Plants with Respect to the Fault Displacement Hazard
Applied Sciences, 2020 The hazard of permanent ground displacements/deformations can challenge the safety of the nuclear power plants. Increasing knowledge of the hazard and development of methods for structure–fault–displacement interaction motivates the designing of nuclear ...

Inelastic displacement ratio for rocking buildings subjected to far-field and near-field pulse-like ground motions [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Self centering rocking buildings are capable of reducing permanent damage and concentrating damage to replaceable energy dissipation devices. This paper aims to calculate inelastic displacement ratio for self centering rocking buildings under far field ...
