Hilbert–Huang-Transform-Based Seismic Intensity Measures for Rocking Response Assessment
Applied Sciences, 2023 Structures that can uplift and rock under severe seismic excitations present remarkable stability without exhibiting damage. As such, rocking-response-based structural systems constitute a promising design practice.

Would RC wide-beam buildings in Spain have survived Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011)? [PDF]
, 2016 Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011) is most destructive event recorded in Spain, causing nine fatalities and other severe consequences. Its important intensity was rather unexpected, and serious concern arose regarding risk of building stock in Spain.

Optimal seismic upgrade timing in seaports with increasing throughput demand via real options [PDF]
, 2018 A real options (RO) formulation is proposed for decision-making on the timing to upgrade the seismic performance of existing seaports with increasing throughput demand in earthquake prone areas.

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Hybrid Passive Control Strategies for Reducing the Displacements at the Base of Seismic Isolated Structures [PDF]
, 2019 In this paper, the use of hybrid passive control strategies to mitigate the seismic response of a base-isolated structure is examined. The control performance of three different types of devices used for reducing base displacements of isolated buildings ...

Performance Based Seismic Design
International Journal of Advance Innovations, Thoughts & Ideas, 2015 Performance-based seismic design, which is a relatively new concept, came into existence as a means to ascertain the likely performance of an existing building structure during an earthquake. However, this approach is equally applicable to new buildings being designed.

PERFORMANCE BASED SEISMIC ENGINEERING [PDF]
The International Conference on Civil and Architecture Engineering, 2008 Performance based seismic engineering is the modern approach to earthquakeresistant design. Rather than being based on prescriptive mostly empirical codeformulations, performance based design is an attempt to predict buildings withpredictable seismic performance.
