Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Retaining walls are key geotechnical components of road infrastructure, whose seismic performance directly affects the resilience of transportation networks. Despite their importance, seismic fragility models for retaining walls available in the literature refer only to specific case studies.

Background seismicity and seismic correlations
Journal of AppliedMathThe law of energy accumulation in the earthquake focus is presented, together with the temporal, energy and magnitude distributions of regular, background earthquakes. The background seismicity is characterized by two parameters—the seismicity rate and the Gutenberg-Richter parameter, which can be extracted by fitting the empirical earthquake ...

Complex Versus Parsimonious Site‐Based Stochastic Ground Motion Models: Which One Is Better?
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stochastic ground motion models (GMMs) provide a probabilistic representation of seismic input and are increasingly important for uncertainty quantification (UQ) in earthquake engineering. This study focuses on site‐based stochastic GMMs, which learn the statistical features of selected datasets of seismic records and generate statistically ...

Time‐Variant Seismic Fragility of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Piers Considering Degradation Phenomena
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aging and environmental exposure progressively deteriorate the physical and mechanical properties of construction materials, thereby affecting the safety and functionality of existing infrastructure. Corrosion of steel rebars in reinforced concrete structures is widely acknowledged as the most common and detrimental degradation phenomenon, as ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite increasing attention to the seismic performance of masonry infills, their out‐of‐plane dynamic behaviour remains insufficiently explored, particularly under pre‐existing in‐plane damage. This study presents a comprehensive experimental campaign designed to investigate the seismic behaviour of an existing weak masonry infill typology ...

Directionality Scaling of Scalar and Vector Ground Motion Intensity Measures
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The azimuthal directionality of earthquake ground‐motion intensity measures (IMs) is conventionally described by the ratios between the orientation‐independent maximum (RotD100) and median (RotD50) values over the horizontal plane. This study presents a refined characterization of the directionality of 31 IMs, including spectral accelerations (

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In current dynamic time history assessment protocols, ground motion recordings are mostly oriented along fixed sensor directions. Consequently, the orientation of the principal resultant of rupture energy, which may control the maximum structural demand, remains undefined, precluding consistent correlation with physically detrimental ...
