Probabilistic Seismic Direct Loss Estimation for Ports, Case study: Pars Asaluyeh port

open access: yesInternational Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2020
Ports are the main avenue of global freight transport. In the past, experience has shown that ports are vulnerable to earthquakes, which cause evident economic damage.

Introducing Adaptive Incremental Dynamic Analysis: A New Tool for Linking Ground Motion Selection and Structural Response Assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adaptive Incremental Dynamic Analysis (AIDA) is a novel ground motion selection scheme that adaptively changes the ground motion suites at different ground motion intensity levels to match hazardconsistent properties for structural response assessment ...

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Generalised Kinematic Single‐Impact and Multi‐Impact Models for Rocking Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rocking motion is fundamental in earthquake engineering, as it reflects the dynamic behaviour of many structural systems. However, simulating the impacts during rocking motion remains a challenging topic, as they occur in a very short time, generate high impulsive forces, cause sudden changes in velocities and result in rapid energy losses.

Time‐ and State‐Dependent Damage Accumulation Due to Aftershocks Under an M9.0 Megathrust Earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a comprehensive framework for assessing time and state‐dependent aftershock damage accumulation under an M9.0 megathrust interface earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ). The framework integrates aftershock probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (APSHA) and state‐dependent fragility analysis (SDFA) within a ...

Seismic Performance of Irregular Buildings

open access: yesIndian Journal of Science and Technology, 2014
Modern building planning is influenced by many factors and often, there is a trend to adopt a form that has irregular shape in plan and also has variation in height of storeys. Due to the varied use, a building is planned for; variations in the load acting on different floors may also differ.

Research on Precise Identification of Rock Strength Based on Bolt Drilling Parameters

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Drilling detection test platform. ABSTRACT During roadway excavation, the presence of weak interlayers and fractured rock masses significantly affects roof stability. To achieve timely and effective roadway support, it is crucial to identify and predict different rock types based on drilling signals from roof bolters.
