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

Deep 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 ...

Analysis of Seismic Fragility Functions of Highway Embankments

Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2020
Vulnerability assessment of structures is a vitally important topic among earthquake engineering researchers. Generally, their primary focus is on the seismic performance of buildings. Less attention is paid to geotechnical structures, even though information about the performance of these structures (e.g.

The analysis of the optimal scalar and vector intensity measurements for seismic performance assessment of deep-buried hydraulic arched tunnels

Underground Space, 2023
The selection of optimal intensity measures (IMs) has been recommended for generating the seismic demand models with different probabilities by researchers since the seismic IMs are closely associated with earthquake risks and structural safety. However,
