Investigating Uncertainty in Seismic Design Maps Based on Hazard and Fragility Curves [PDF]
All engineering measurements carry inherent uncertainty, whether acknowledged or not. If we add a type of risk metric as well as uncertainty quantification in the procedure of establishing the seismic design load applied to the structures, we will have a

Nonlinear seismic analysis of a reactor structure impact between core components [PDF]
The seismic analysis of the FFTF-PIOTA (Fast Flux Test Facility-Postirradiation Open Test Assembly), subjected to a horizontal DBE (Design Base Earthquake) is presented. The PIOTA is the first in a set of open test assemblies to be designed for the FFTF.

Normal fault earthquakes or graviquakes [PDF]
Earthquakes are dissipation of energy throughout elastic waves. Canonically is the elastic energy accumulated during the interseismic period. However, in crustal extensional settings, gravity is the main energy source for hangingwall fault collapsing ...

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Damping Modification Factors for Pile–Induced Filtering Effect
ABSTRACT Period–dependent Damping Modification Factors are usually applied to the 5%–damped pseudo–acceleration response spectrum at free field conditions to derive the seismic demand for structures with damping ratio other than 5%. Likewise, the response spectrum at the foundation level of pile–supported structures may differ from the free field ...

Assessment of blasting operations effects during highway tunnel construction [PDF]
Blasting operations are one of the fundamental parts of daily civil engineering. Drilling and blasting still remain the only possible ways of tunnelling in very adverse geological conditions. However, this method is a source of various disadvantages, the
