Compaction Seismicity: What Determines Seismic vs. Non-Seismic Behavior in Dutch Gas Fields?

SPE Europec, 2020
Abstract Reservoir compaction in depleting gas fields can cause seismicity, as has been observed in a dozen countries (Foulger et al., 2019). So, it is no surprise that some of the Dutch gas fields induce many earthquakes up to magnitude 3.5.

Seismic behavior using fuzzy methods

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
In this paper we deal with the subject of a seismic sequence. Assuming that the major earthquake in a specified region has a certain intensity level, we study all the earthquakes, which follow, according to their magnitude and to the time difference from the main one.

Seismic behavior of non-seismically designed reinforced concrete frame structure

Earthquakes and Structures, 2016
This paper presents a study on a non-seismically designed reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure. The structure was a existing three-story office building constructed according to the 1990s practice in Vietnam. The 1/3 scaled down versions of structure was tested on a shake table to investigate the seismic performance of this type of construction. It

Seismic behaviour of steel sections

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 1994
Abstract In this paper, the experimental results are described and discussed which were obtained during an extensive testing program on the cyclic behaviour of steel members carried out at the Structural Engineering Department of the Politecnico di Milano.

Seismic behavior of rack structures

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2005
Abstract In order to allow the owner to change the layout according to need, rack structures must be easy to assemble; therefore, the connecting elements must reflect this need. This paper presents experimental findings for a typical rack connection, tested under static and cyclic loads. The beam-to-column connection studied utilizes hooks fabricated

Evaluation of Seismic Behavior in Non-Seismic Concentrically Braced Frames

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015
SCBFs (Special Concentrically Braced Frames) have been praised for considerable strength, high lateral stiffness, economic feasibility and good performance of seismic loads, which make engineers widely use SCBF as lateral-load resisting systems in buildings and have researchers develop design requirements.

Numerical simulations of seismic and post-seismic behavior of tailings

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2016
Several tailings impoundments have failed as a result of earthquakes in the last few decades. A majority of these failures were due to direct seismic loading, tailings liquefaction during shaking, or the post-seismic behavior of the tailings as it relates to the dissipation of excess pore-water pressures that were generated during shaking.

Seismic Behavior of Structural Subassemblages

Journal of the Structural Division, 1980
The behavior of both structural steel and reinforced concrete specimens subjected to quasi-static cyclic loadings simulating severe seismic effects are examined. A large number of experimentally determined hysteretic loops for different structural arrangements based on the work mainly done at the University of California, Berkeley, serve as ...

Inferring Seismic Behavior From Morphology in Timber Roofs

International Journal of Architectural Heritage, 2012
Timber roof structures composed with parallel trusses are used in traditional buildings in a variety of forms and sizes. The effect of structural morphology on the seismic response of these structures has been investigated with the aim at defining criteria for assessing their seismic vulnerability. Classic modal and response spectrum analyses have been

Asymptotic behavior of seismic hazard curves

Structural Safety, 2022
Hazard curves from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are plots of the rate of earthquakes exceeding ground motion intensity values vs such threshold values, for a site of interest. In classical PSHA, these curves can be transformed to provide the probability of exceedance of ground motion intensity values in any time interval, utilizing the ...
