Seismic reliability assessment of classical columns subjected to near-fault ground motions [PDF]
, 2013 A methodology for the performance-based seismic risk assessment of classical columns is presented. Despite their apparent instability, classical columns are, in general, earthquake resistant, as proven from the fact that many classical monuments have ...

Effect of nonlinearity of restrainer and supports on the elasto-plastic seismic response of continuous girder bridge [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2014 During an earthquake, the nonlinearity of the bridge structure mainly occurs at the supports, bridge piers and restrainers. When entering nonlinear stage, members of the bridge structure affect the elasto-plastic seismic response of the whole structure

Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1974 It has long been recognized that the intensity of shaking in the epicentral region in a large earthquake is far from uniform. The common engineering approach has been to regard local site conditions as having paramount influence in the total response prediction problem.

Seismic response of linear accelerators [PDF]
Physical Review Special Topics - Accelerators and Beams, 2010 This paper is divided into two parts. The first part presents recent measurements of ground motion in the LHC tunnel at CERN. From these measurements, an update of the ground motion model currently used in accelerator simulations is presented. It contains new features like a model of the lateral motion and the technical noise. In the second part, it is

Effective linear damping and stiffness coefficients of nonlinear systems for design spectrum based analysis [PDF]
, 2010 A stochastic approach for obtaining reliable estimates of the peak response of nonlinear systems to excitations specified via a design seismic spectrum is proposed. This is achieved in an efficient manner without resorting to numerical integration of the
