Site Response to Vertical Earthquake Motion
Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Soil Dynamics IV, 2008Evaluation of ground response is one of the fundamental problems in earthquake geotechnical engineering. Current practice has tended to focus on horizontal earthquake motion and ignore the effect of vertical motion. Because of strong vertical ground motions recorded in recent earthquakes, great concern has arisen over the behavior of vertical motion ...

Canadian Theatre Review, 2006
Site-specific work is hardly new. No doubt the urge to perform predates the development of theatre and gallery spaces as privileged locations for presenting manufactured images. And certainly there is a rich and extensive history of works that have taken place outside of these “traditional” architectures of presentation,1 for various economic ...

A test site for quantification of GPR responses
Fifth International Conferention on Ground Penetrating Radar, 1994Expansion of the use of GPR in many areas and improved instrumentation is leading to the need for GPR data with amplitude fidelity. To be more quantitative, the factors which control amplitude must be thoroughly understood. To this end, a controlled test site has been established to address some of these problems. Targets of simple geometry were buried

Site Response Characterization
2017It is well recognized that the seismic response of a site is strongly dependent on the local geological and geotechnical features of the ground profile. Several approaches are available to include site response effects in the hazard assessment. They are detailed in the following paragraphs but all of them require more or less in-depth knowledge of the ...

Site response effects for structures located on sand sites
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1990Results are presented for 4 sand sites forming part of a site response study of 11 soil sites. The results are in the form of spectral accelerations and ratios, base shear coefficients, and foundation factors. They indicate that significant amplifications can be expected at sand sites, especially for low-intensity excitation. Comparisons are made with

CAN SITE RESPONSE BE PREDICTED?
Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2004 Large modifications of seismic waves are produced by variations of material properties near the Earth's surface and by both surface and buried topography.

Bone‐site‐specific responses to zoledronic acid
Oral Diseases, 2016ObjectivesBisphosphonates are widely used to treat bone diseases such as osteoporosis. However, they may cause osteonecrosis of the jaw. Here, we investigated whether in vivo exposure to bisphosphonates has a different effect on long bone and jaw osteoclasts, and on the turnover of these different bones.Materials and MethodsZoledronic acid (0.5 mg kg−1

Site-Dependent Seismic Response Spectra for Soft Sites
Journal of the Power Division, 1977Different approaches are presented for developing site-dependent response spectra for soft sites where recorded historical motions are not available. Seismic response analyses were performed for a given site with an appropriate input motion to determine the site-frequency characteristics in terms of surface response spectra. These results were combined

Responsibility for Site Contamination
2012This chapter examines the importance of including a strong liability framework in any national legislation for site contamination. It considers the elements commonly used in national liability frameworks, identifying the advantages and disadvantages of each.
