Fractures in seismically loaded bridges
Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials, 1997AbstractDuring the Hanshin‐Awaji earthquake near Kobe, Japan, in January 1995, many civil structures suffered various kinds of damage which had never before been seen. Subsequently, many research programs have been undertaken which are related to the Hanshin‐Awaji earthquake and the associated damage.

Centrifuge Modeling of Seismic Loading on Tunnels in Sand
Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2012Abstract The purpose of the work is to provide an experimental benchmark on the seismic behavior of tunnels, with the final aim of calibrating numerical and analytical design methods. A series of plane-strain centrifuge tests with dynamic loading on a model tunnel was, therefore, carried out at the Schofield Centre of the Cambridge ...

Container Cranes Response Predict on Seismic Load
2010 International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Applications and Technologies, 2010Based on damage modes of container cranes under earthquake and the characteristic of over-span flexible structures, the anti-seismic design of such machines was investigated. Taking the first crane equipped with isolating device as an example, through dynamic analysis and simulating to anti-seismic crane flexible system under the earthquake and ...

The Beneficial Role of Piles on the Seismic Loading of Structures
Earthquake Spectra, 2019We examine the kinematic response of fixed‐head vertical floating piles embedded in continuously nonhomogeneous soils and subjected to upward propagating seismic waves. The problem is explored numerically by means of a rigorous finite element (FE) model of the soil‐pile system to quantify the kinematically induced reduction of the ...

Earthquake Spectra, 2006
The 2003 International Building Code seismic design procedures do not result in uniform risk throughout the country. A comparison is made between the expected lifetime damage to two identical buildings—one in the western United States and other in the central United States. The seismic design
