Seismic Resilience Assessment of a Regional Bridge Network
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study evaluates the seismic resilience of a regional bridge network, focusing on the interconnectedness and interdependence among individual bridges and emergency facilities. A framework for resilience assessment is developed and applied to a bridge network in Vancouver, British Columbia, consisting of 11 bridges across seven main routes.

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023 Seismic risk has received increased attention since the 2011 Fukushima accident in Japan. The seismic risk of a nuclear power plant is evaluated via seismic probabilistic safety assessment (PSA), for which several methods are available.

Seismic Design of Steel Chevron and Split‐X Concentrically Braced Frames
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper aims to (1) investigate how various design parameters affect seismic response of steel chevron and split‐X braced frames, (2) advance understanding of their seismic behaviour and (3) propose new system‐specific guidelines for accurately estimating their seismic demands and for achieving enhanced seismic performance.

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.

Experimental Characterization of a Full‐Scale Stair System Detailed to Achieve Seismic Resiliency
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stair systems are the primary means of egress in and out of a building during and after an earthquake. Therefore, it is essential to detail these critical nonstructural systems such that they remain operable during and after an earthquake of moderate to high levels of intensity.

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 ...

A Macro‐Model for Simulating Gusset Plate Buckling in Buckling‐Restrained Braced Frame Buildings
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT 2D models, which are conventionally employed for the seismic performance assessment of buckling‐restrained braced frame (BRBF) buildings, are incapable of simulating the out‐of‐plane buckling of gusset plates. This study presents a novel 3D macro‐modelling approach capable of capturing the out‐of‐plane buckling of gusset plates in BRBFs.
