Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of previous studies; remarkably, the response reduction factors were commonly obtained from ...

Multi‐scale geophysical imaging of neotectonic fault activity in the northern Upper Rhine Graben, Germany

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract A comprehensive multi‐method geophysical strategy is used to investigate two faults in the Northern Upper Rhine Graben. Combining industrial 3D seismic data with our own 2D P‐ and S‐wave seismic, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground‐penetrating radar (GPR), we created comprehensive subsurface images of the faults. 3D seismic data

ARL‐Unbiased Exponential Control Charts With Estimated Parameters: Statistical Design and Implementation

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The bias of a control chart is an important factor in practical applications. Average run length (ARL)‐biased control charts have their out‐of‐control (OOC) ARL (ARLOOC) greater than the in‐control (IC) ARL (ARLin) for some values of the monitored parameter.
