Probabilistic and Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment in Amol Center, a City in North of Iran [PDF]
Iranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2012 In this paper, the peak ground acceleration over the bedrock (PGA) is calculated by a probabilistic and deterministic seismic hazard assessment. The active fault map of the region is prepared. For this purpose, all active faults in a radius of 100 km of

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions
Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.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 ...

Dizhen xuebao, 2022 本文试图从哲学和科学的角度，就我国地震工程研究和防震减灾事业的若干问题进行讨论。论文指出：宏观考察得出的地震烈度并不具备科学概念应有的确切内涵和外延；地震危险性分析结果不可能被验证；抗震设防标准的采用从根本上取决于社会经济与技术的发展水平；断层避让研究尚未达到工程应用阶段；不能追求结构地震反应数值模拟的精确结果。最后，提出了对当前地震工程研究的建议和前景展望。

Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 9-22, March 2025.Abstract Blockchain technology is a digital decentralized data ledger recording transactions in an encrypted format. Its implementation can potentially hold significant advantages for the built environment, particularly in manufacturing and building product usage aligned with Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paradigm shift toward decentralized

Blasting effects of cross‐fault deep‐buried excavation on adjacent existing tunnel stability
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Based on the theoretical analysis of cylindrical wave propagation in a deep rock mass in the fault with a filling layer, the calculation method of peak particle velocity caused by wave propagation in the existing tunnel is established. The viscoelastic characteristics of a rock mass are examined in the analysis.
