Regional Seismic Wavefield Propagation [PDF]
Through the examination of local and regional seismic waveform data the crust and upper mantle of southern California are investigated. Using local and regional seismic phases such as Pn, Sn, PL, and surface waves, seismic wave velocities of interesting

Seismic soil-structure interaction for pile supported systems [PDF]
Civil engineering structures involve structural elements with direct contact with ground. When the external actions, such as earthquakes, act on these systems, neither the structural displacements nor the ground displacements, are independent of each ...

Seismic vulnerability of deep tunnels influenced by chloride ion corrosion
Chloride ion erosion adversely affects the seismic performance of tunnels, making it essential to study the seismic vulnerability of tunnels in corrosive environments for a comprehensive seismic assessment over their entire lifecycle.

Comparative structural response of two steel bridges constructed 100 years apart [PDF]
This paper presents a comparative numerical analysis of the structural behaviour and seismic performance of two existing steel bridges, the Infiernillo II Bridge and the Pinhao Bridge, one located in Mexico and the other in Portugal. The two bridges have

Intelligent assessment of damage and prediction of seismic damage spectrum under the effect of Near-Fault earthquakes in Iran [PDF]
Predicting seismic damage spectra and capturing both structural and earthquake features are crucial for the design of new buildings and also for the resilience evaluation of existing ones.

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...
