Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roof‐positioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.

Sensitivity of seismically cued antineutrino detectors to nuclear explosions
We evaluate the sensitivity of large, gadolinium-doped water detectors to antineutrinos released by nuclear fission explosions, using updated signal and background models and taking advantage of the capacity for seismic observations to provide an ...

Application of EPS Geofoam to a Soil–Steel Bridge to Reduce Seismic Excitations
There have only been a limited number of analyses of soil−steel bridges under seismic and anthropogenic (rockburst) excitations. Rockbursts are phenomena similar to low-intensity natural earthquakes.

Feasibility of using neural networks to obtain simplified capacity curves for seismic assessment [PDF]
The selection of a given method for the seismic vulnerability assessment of buildings is mostly dependent on the scale of the analysis. Results obtained in large-scale studies are usually less accurate than the ones obtained in small-scale studies.

Seismic Analysis of HFETR Spent Fuel Storage Rack Based on Parameterization-superelement Method
In order to solve the problems in the design of HFETR spent fuel storage rack, such as slow iterative design speed, long seismic analysis time and difficult multirack analysis, a combination of parameterization method and superelement method was ...
