Seismic Performance of Hillside Fills [PDF]
Permanent ground deformations in unsaturated, compacted hillside fills under seismic loading conditions are discussed, with emphasis given to fill performance during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. These movements represent a significant yet often unrecognized hazard to developed hillside areas, as relatively modest deformations induced widespread ...

The effect of moment redistribution on the stability of reinforced concrete moment resisting frame buildings under the ground motion [PDF]
In recent years some studies have been done on the moment rredistribution in buildings and new methods offered for calculating of redistribution. Observations demonstrated that the combination of moment and shear force is important in analysis of ...
