Finite Element Modelling of Rocking and Hybrid Precast Walls under Seismic Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, self‐centring systems have received considerable research interest in the seismic design of precast concrete structures for their ability to limit damage and satisfy resilience requirements. Rocking and hybrid structural walls, characterised by the formation of a single gap at the wall–foundation interface, mitigate damage by ...

Research progress and prospects of earthquake emergency mobile observation

open access: yes地震科学进展
Earthquake emergency mobile observation is an important means responding to earthquake disasters. It provides crucial data support for post-earthquake emergency response, inversion of earthquake source parameters, and aftershock sequence analysis.

Post-earthquake building safety 
evaluation procedures

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1998
The primary aim of this document is to provide Territorial Authorities with an outline response plan so that safety evaluations of damaged buildings can be activated efficiently and effectively following a major earthquake (or any other disaster which affects buildings).

Evaluation of the Adequacy of Design Specifications for Nonstructural Components in a Reticular Structure

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonstructural components (NSCs) installed in large‐span reticular structures were frequently severely damaged during earthquakes, even when the primary structure remained intact. Existing seismic design specifications for NSCs were predominantly developed for upright structures such as multi‐storey buildings and offer no guidance for reticular

Reflections on researching women’s economic empowerment in post-earthquake Kathmandu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The earthquake and aftershocks that hit Nepal in April-May 2015 had a devastating impact on the Kathmandu Valley. National and international donors responded with both cash and material assistance, but there has been relatively little research into aid ...

Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis of Rocking Vault‐Shaped Segmental Piers Equipped With an Annular Double Sliding System

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enhance the structural robustness of bridges, a rocking arch‐shaped segmental pier with a double sliding system was previously proposed as a low‐cost solution to protect bridges in developing countries. The rocking behavior is triggered by halting the sliding motion, which increases the horizontal load‐bearing capacity and limits ...
