Fundamentals of Earthquake Engineering: From Source to Fragility, Second Edition
combines aspects of engineering seismology, structural and geotechnical earthquake …

In the present study, the emphasis is made on the seismic performance of nuclear
containment constructed on layered medium to dense silty sand soil considering the …

Many engineers are hesitant to specify rocking foundations for ordinary bridges because of
the unsubstantiated notion that rocking bridges are more susceptible to instability than …

Although the nonlinear behavior of rocking shallow foundations has been experimentally
and numerically demonstrated as an effective tool to dissipate vibrational energy during …

Recent studies have shown that the eff ects of Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) may be
detrimental to the seismic response of structure, and the neglect of SSI in analysis may lead …

This study focuses on the seismic response analysis of an internal shearwall of a typical
Indian reactor resting on a medium dense sandy silty soil, incorporating the nonlinear …

This paper presents a probabilistic evaluation of the seismic performance of 10, 20, and 30-
story reinforced concrete buildings with dual systems located in Tehran, Iran, considering …

Soil–structure interaction (SSI) effects on the dynamic response of reinforced concrete (RC)
wall-frame dual system have not adequately been investigated and are usually not …

In conventional designs, the pile and pile cap are typically considered rigid connections.
However, this type of connection experiences a concentrated force during earthquakes …

Previous studies have demonstrated that nonlinear material behavior of a building may lead
to an increased seismic response of supported nonstructural components in comparison …
