Assessment of seismic hazards in Yemen [PDF]
Heliyon, 2021 The seismic hazard analyses for Yemen have attracted the attention of researchers during the last two decades. However, the studies are limited and mainly use deterministic or approximate conventional probabilistic approaches. The conclusions drawn from these studies do not fit with current seismic design codes (International Building Code).

Seismic reliability assessment of classical columns subjected to near-fault ground motions [PDF]
, 2013 A methodology for the performance-based seismic risk assessment of classical columns is presented. Despite their apparent instability, classical columns are, in general, earthquake resistant, as proven from the fact that many classical monuments have ...
