AbstractThis paper proposes a vertical distribution of seismic design load of seismically isolated buildings corresponding to diversity of seismic isolation devices such as hysteretic dampers and/or velocity‐dependent dampers. This proposed method is obtained from the relationship between response amplification caused by higher‐mode responses and key ...

Seismic Response Analysis of an Isolated Structure with QZS under Near-Fault Vertical Earthquakes
Seismic isolation devices are usually designed to protect structures from the strong horizontal component of earthquake ground shaking. However, the effect of near-fault (NF) vertical ground motions on seismic responses of buildings has become an ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
