Seismic Damage Model for Regular Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal for Engineering Modelling, 2001
Seismic damage model of regular structures is analysed. It is based on following assumptions: Seismic response of regular structures (symmetric plans and constant vertical stiffness) can be well interpreted by using SDOF system as a mathematical model of the structures. Response parameters of structure as ductility, stiffness change, energy balance and

Would RC wide-beam buildings in Spain have survived Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011)? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011) is most destructive event recorded in Spain, causing nine fatalities and other severe consequences. Its important intensity was rather unexpected, and serious concern arose regarding risk of building stock in Spain.

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...
