Experimental evaluation of the seismic performance of steel MRFs with compressed elastomer dampers using large-scale real-time hybrid simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Real-time hybrid simulation combines experimental testing and numerical simulation, and thus is a viable experimental technique for evaluating the effectiveness of supplemental damping devices for seismic hazard mitigation.

Performance-Based approach in seismic design of embedded retaining walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The increasing use of the underground spaces and the last seismic events in the urban areas have driven many researchers of different countries to deepen the knowledge on the dynamic behaviour of the structure embedded in the subsoil.

Regional Seismic Wavefield Propagation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Through the examination of local and regional seismic waveform data the crust and upper mantle of southern California are investigated. Using local and regional seismic phases such as Pn, Sn, PL, and surface waves, seismic wave velocities of interesting

Earthquake Economic Loss Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Structures Using Multiple Response Variables

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
For buildings that meet the requirements of current seismic design codes, damage to nonstructural components and the internal objects of buildings often become the main source of the seismic economic losses of these buildings.

Fragility analysis of underground large-scale frame structures considering seismic effects of vertical earthquakes

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2023
The increase dynamic analysis (IDA) curves of seismic responses of the underground large-scale frame structure (ULSFS) are investigated during the single horizontal earthquakes and horizontal-vertical earthquakes, respectively. The influence mechanism of

Performance based seismic design

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2000
One of the major developments in seismic design over the past 10 years has been increased emphasis on limit states design, now generally termed Performance Based Engineering. Three techniques - the capacity spectrum approach, the N2 method and direct displacement-based design have now matured to the stage where seismic assessment of existing structures,

Swedish National Seismic Network

open access: yes, 1904
The Swedish National Seismic Network (SNSN) started with the installation of a Wiechert seismograph in Uppsala in 1904. Since 1998 the SNSN is a part of the Department of Earth Sciences at Uppsala University.
