Seismic Performance Evaluation of Lead High‐Damping Rubber Bearings Tested by Real‐Time Hybrid Simulations at Low Temperatures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lead high‐damping rubber (LHDR) bearings, composed of high‐damping rubber and lead core, are effective isolation devices that address increased seismic demands. The temperature effect on the behavior of LHDR bearings is significant, leading to increased initial stiffness at low temperatures.

Scale-Adaptive Simulation of Flow around a Circular Cylinder near a Plane Boundary

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2018
Numerical investigations using Scale-Adaptive Simulation (SAS) turbulence model are carried out to study the flow around a circular cylinder near to a plane boundary at Reynolds numbers between 8.6x104 and 2.77x105 with two different boundary layer ...

On improving seismic risk and cost for nuclear energy facility based on multi-objective optimization considering seismic correlation

Energy Reports, 2022
Currently, the system, structure, and component (SSC) seismic design and seismic probabilistic safety assessment (SPSA) process for the nuclear energy facility are performed individually, thus seismic risk reduction and cost efficiency cannot be pursued.

Observational Seismic Fragility Models for Unreinforced Masonry Buildings Based on Building‐by‐Building Damage Data From the 2012 Emilia Earthquakes

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, Italy has been affected by multiple earthquakes, revealing the significant vulnerability of existing structures. These seismic events have resulted in notable human and economic losses, emphasising the importance of evaluating the impact of one or more seismic events on various building types.

Ground Motion Estimates Updated by Building Damage

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical ShakeMap relies on a conditional Gaussian random field approach to earthquake shaking estimation, where the mean and covariance matrix are derived from a ground motion model, a correlation model for intra‐event residuals, and the recordings from seismic monitoring stations.

Effective Adaptation Options to Alleviate Nuisance Flooding in Coastal Megacities—Learning From Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Earth's Future
The economies and livelihoods of many coastal megacities are at serious risk from flooding, despite investments in flood defenses. For instance, in Ho Chi Minh City, the construction of a large‐scale ring‐dike has mitigated negative effects from storm ...
