The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Effectiveness of friction dampers on the seismic behavior of high rise building VS shear wall system
The increase in population especially in third world countries demands taller, more flexible, and lighter buildings. Most of these countries are subjected to a high risk of earthquakes, which requires more control of building seismic response.

Effective Width of Floor Systems for Application in Seismic Analysis [PDF]
Effective width coefficients for floor systems have been developed for use in the analysis of frames subjected to lateral seismic loads. The results cover a wide range of the governing nondimensional parameters, and are applicable to floor slabs with ...

Retrieving shallow shear-wave velocity profiles from 2D seismic-reflection data with severely aliased surface waves [PDF]
The inversion of surface-wave phase-velocity dispersion curves provides a reliable method to derive near-surface shear-wave velocity profiles. In this work, we invert phase-velocity dispersion curves estimated from 2D seismic-reflection data.
