Structural Effects of Vertical Non‐Skeletal Elements (NSEs) With Rocking Mechanisms
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper introduces the structural effects provided by vertical non‐skeletal elements (NSEs), such as claddings and partitions, with vertical slotted holes at their supports to enable rocking as the frame undergoes significant lateral deformation.

Seismic scattering signatures of small-scale heterogeneities: examples from the Mount Messenger Formation, New Zealand [PDF]
Heterogeneity that is on a length scale just below that of a seismic wavelength is at the limit of resolution but may still cause significant wave scattering.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores the seismic performance of a five‐story prototype building using different configurations of a dual lateral force‐resisting system (LFRS) combining post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber rocking walls (PT‐CLT‐RW) with conventional wood light‐frame shear walls (LiFS).

3D velocity-depth model building using surface seismic and well data [PDF]
, 1998 The objective of this work was to develop techniques that could be used to rapidly build a three-dimensional velocity-depth model of the subsurface, using the widest possible variety of data available from conventional seismic processing and allowing for

Earthen construction: structural vulnerabilities and retrofit solutions for seismic actions [PDF]
, 2012 Earthen structures present very appealing characteristics regarding a more sustainable practice with the preservation of our natural resources. However, when subjected to earthquake ground motions, this type of construction may present a deficient ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Higher‐mode effects can significantly amplify seismic demands in high‐rise buildings, causing unintended damage over the building height. Engineered mechanisms are introduced at the base of these structures to mitigate higher‐mode effects. Existing continuum formulations for base‐flexible buildings commonly idealize the superstructure as a ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This study addresses hard roof coal seam conditions by optimizing key stratum blasting‐cutting parameters through theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and field tests. It proposes calculation methods for blast hole spacing and delay timing based on stress wave theory, controlling roadway deformation within 35 mm, thereby enhancing resource ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.The production process can be divided into two stages according to the relationship between the gas production rate and the decomposition gas rate. The ratio of cumulative decomposition gas to cumulative gas production can be used to evaluate the contribution of the gas hydrate layer.
