Simplified seismic performance assessment and implications for seismic design
Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration, 2014The last decade or so has seen the development of refined performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) approaches that now provide a framework for estimation of a range of important decision variables, such as repair costs, repair time and number of casualties.

SOAR Telescope seismic performance II: seismic mitigation
SPIE Proceedings, 2016We describe design modifications to the SOAR telescope intended to reduce the impact of future major earthquakes, based on the facility’s experience during recent events, most notably the September 2015 Illapel earthquake. Specific modifications include a redesign of the encoder systems for both azimuth and elevation, seismic trigger for the emergency ...

Seismic performance of riveted connections
Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2002Abstract The results of tests on seven full-scale T-stub riveted connections are described. The differences in connector behavior between modern bolts and older rivets are discussed, and the effect of encasement on the strength, stiffness, and ductility of older steel connections is highlighted.

Seismic performance of suspended ceilings
2017Non-structural elements (NSEs) have frequently proven to contribute to significant losses sustained from earthquakes in the form of damage, downtime, injury and death. In New Zealand (NZ), the 2010 and 2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence (CES), the 2013 Seddon and Cook Strait earthquake sequence and the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake were major milestones in
