Stochastic modeling of ground acceleration for eastern Cuba and the city of Santiago de Cuba
The southeastern region of Cuba is the most seismically dangerous area of the country because of its close location to the border of the Caribbean plate with the North American plate.

Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification

Researching and comprehending the characteristics of destructive seismic motions is essential for the seismic design of critical infrastructure. This study employs historical data from the M 7.5 earthquake that occurred in 1850 to simulate the impacts of

Damping Modification Factors for Pile–Induced Filtering Effect
ABSTRACT Period–dependent Damping Modification Factors are usually applied to the 5%–damped pseudo–acceleration response spectrum at free field conditions to derive the seismic demand for structures with damping ratio other than 5%. Likewise, the response spectrum at the foundation level of pile–supported structures may differ from the free field ...

Ground‐Motion Aleatory‐Variability Models for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands
I develop independent logic trees for aleatory variability for crustal and subduction‐zone (interface and intraslab) earthquakes for seismic hazards analyses in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI) from existing suites of ground‐motion models (GMMs) and from ground‐motion datasets, including a regional PRVI dataset.

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

Origin of the Bulge Topography Within Caloris Basin, Mercury
Abstract Caloris basin on Mercury has a massive circular bulge topography imprinted with unique fault sets. A variety of deformational processes have been proposed to have influenced their formation, including both global contraction and basin evolution, as well as the deposition and weight of the volcanic infill.

Advances in crosshole seismic reflection processing [PDF]
In recent years there have been significant advances in the acquisition and processing of crosshole seismic reflection data, and the method has been shown to be a high resolution imaging technique.
