An Alternative Approach for the Design of Chevron-Braced Frames
Applied Sciences, 2021 The design of steel chevron-braced frames as per Eurocode 8 is based on the idea that only the braces should buckle and yield during ground motions, while other members should remain elastic.

Integrated Seismic Risk Assessment in Nepal [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Abstract. As Nepal is at high risk of earthquakes, the district-wide (VDC/Municipality level) study has been performed for vulnerability assessment of seismic-hazard, and the hazard-risk study is incorporated with social conditions as it has become a crucial issue in recent years.

Seismic assessment of plain concrete arch bridges by three dimensional simulation using geometrical and mechanical properties [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2018 There are numerous old arch bridges in Iran that have been used as railway bridges for more than seventy years. Since most of these bridges are not designed for earthquake excitation, seismic vulnerability of these structures is uncertain.

Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]
, 2020 Seismic hazard means the possibility of a strongest ground motion taking place in a specified area during a given time interval. Because earthquake occurrence in time, location and magnitude are random, the probabilistic method is a reasonable choice for seismic hazard assessment.
