A MPM framework for large deformation seismic response analysis [PDF]
Landslides are often triggered by earthquakes and can cause immense damage due to large mass movements. To model such large-deformation events, the material point method (MPM) has become increasingly popular in recent years.

Seismic response analysis of subway station under obliquely incident SV waves. [PDF]
This paper aims to investigate the dynamic response characteristics of subway station under earthquakes. To this end, seismic waves are transformed into equivalent nodal loads on viscoelastic artificial boundaries using theories and methods of wave ...

The first step for learning any calculation code for seismic response analysis is an adequate understanding of how to properly set the boundary conditions and the properties of the soil model at the initial stage, i.e., before the shaking event.

In 2011, an earthquake and subsequent tsunami hit the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, causing simultaneous accidents in several reactors. This accident shows us that if there are several reactors on site, the seismic risk to multiple units is ...

The escalator is one of most important vertical transportation measures to connect each every one of storey-layers in buildings. During severe earthquakes, escalators are not only shaken by themselves, but withstand lateral relative deflexions induced in

本文试图从哲学和科学的角度,就我国地震工程研究和防震减灾事业的若干问题进行讨论。论文指出:宏观考察得出的地震烈度并不具备科学概念应有的确切内涵和外延;地震危险性分析结果不可能被验证;抗震设防标准的采用从根本上取决于社会经济与技术的发展水平;断层避让研究尚未达到工程应用阶段;不能追求结构地震反应数值模拟的精确结果。最后,提出了对当前地震工程研究的建议和前景展望。

Nonlinear Stochastic Seismic Response Analysis of Three-Dimensional Reinforced Concrete Piles
A reliable assessment and design of engineering structures requires appropriate estimation and consideration of different sources of uncertainty. The randomness of seismic ground motion is one major uncertainty that needs to be considered from the ...
