Memory plays us scurvy tricks. I remember that Hilaire Belloc says somewhere that there are three things that a real man must be capable of saying. I remember also that the first one is: Credo in unum Deum, Patrem omnipotentem; and that the third one is:

Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework
ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two

Modular Pressure Redistribution Cushion with Proprioceptive Soft–Rigid Hybrid Actuator
Pressure ulcers, which can result from prolonged sitting, pose a significant challenge for wheelchair users. Soft robotics has considerable potential in preventing pressure ulcers. However, current soft robotics, constructed from flexible materials, face

Evaluation on seismic hazard map in Sumatra bedrock was needed because the Indonesian seismic hazard map standard (SNI-1726-2002) was built using the 2D seismic source model and a lot of seismic activity around Sumatera occurred after the 8N1-1 7 26-2002

Assessing the completeness of Italian historical earthquake data
The assessment of the completeness of historical earthquake data (such as, for instance, parametric earthquake catalogues) has usually been approached in seismology - and mainly in Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment(PSHA) - by means of statistical ...

In general, seismic hazard analysis is conducted using a probabilistic approach (PSHA), whilst seismic risk analysis is computed using a stochastic approach. To figur out more differences between the two methods, a comparative study of those two approaches needs to be conducted.

The comparison of the NDSHA, PSHA seismic hazard maps and real seismicity for the Italian territory
Rigorous and objective testing of seismic hazard assessments against the real seismic activity must become the necessary precondition for any responsible seismic risk estimation. Because seismic hazard maps seek to predict the shaking that would actually

In probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA), the standard practice is to select a set of appropriate ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) and assign weights on the logic tree, especially for regions where strong motion data are sparse and where
