Influence of thick soft superficial layers of seabed on ground motion and its treatment suggestions for site response analysis

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2021
The thick soft superficial layers of the seabed greatly influence ground motion generally. It is worth studying how to find out the influence of these soft layers on ground motion parameters and determine reasonable seismic fortification parameters for ...

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

SEISMIC RISK ASSESSMENT IN THE ATTICA BASIN

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, 2017
This paper aims to determine the exposure-based earthquake risk posed in the Attica Basin, Greece using a GIS based methodology. The hazard level is based on grouped geological formations according to the New Ground Anti-Earthquake Regulation of Greece and the structural setting of the area. Vulnerability is calculated using two different methodologies.

Challenges, models, and algorithms for flow and transport simulations in deep reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Deep reservoirs are considered a promising resource for future energy supply, but current reservoir simulation technologies may face certain challenges if they are directly used in specific scenarios in deep reservoir development. Models and algorithms were developed to resolve these challenges, including a better phase equilibrium model, a better ...
