The effect of the number of response cycles on the behaviour of reinforced concrete elements subject to cyclic loading [PDF]
, 2012 The development of damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures is a cumulative process. Some damage indices used to quantify damage make use of the number of response cycles as an Engineering Demand Parameter (EDP) relating with damage development ...

Crustal fault reactivation facilitating lithospheric folding/buckling in the central Indian Ocean
, 1996 High-quality, normal-incidence seismic reflection data confirm that tectonic deformation in the central Indian Ocean occurs at two spatial scales: whole lithosphere folding with wavelengths varying between 100 and 300 km, and compressional reactivation ...

Damping Modification Factors for Pile–Induced Filtering Effect
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.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 ...

Comparison of wind turbine tower failure modes under seismic and wind loads [PDF]
, 2019 This paper studies the structural responses and failure modes of a 1.5-MW horizontal-axis wind turbine under strong ground motions and wind loading. Ground motions were selected and scaled to match the two design response spectra given by the seismic ...

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...
