Seismic Behavior of Soft First Storey
IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering, 2012 In the aftermath of recent North Kashmir Earthquake of October 8, 2005, there is increased awareness for the need to evaluate and improve the seismic performance of multistoried reinforced concrete buildings. There are several numbers of factors affecting the behavior of building. Stiffness irregularity in vertical direction is one of them, as a result

Investigation of the effect of far-field ground motion records on the seismic response of mid-rise hybrid concrete-steel buildings [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریفHybrid concrete-steel buildings in height are usually referred to as buildings that have two lower and upper parts of concrete and steel materials, respectively. Due to the change in mass, stiffness, and damping in the vertical direction, these buildings

COVID-19 societal response captured by seismic noise in China and Italy
, 2020 Seismic noise with frequencies above 1 Hz is often called cultural noise and is generally correlated quite well with human activities. Recently, cities in mainland China and Italy imposed lockdown restrictions in response to COVID-19, which gave us an ...

Icequakes coupled with surface displacements for predicting glacier break-off
, 2010 A hanging glacier at the east face of Weisshorn (Switzerland) broke off in 2005. We were able to monitor and measure surface motion and icequake activity for 25 days up to three days prior to the break-off.
