A generic loosely coupled effective stress method is presented in this article for one‐, two‐
and three‐dimensional (1D, 2D and 3D) nonlinear site response analyses. In this method …

Seismic response of unsaturated soil layers may differ from that of saturated or dry soil
deposits. A set of centrifuge experiments was conducted to study the influence of partial …

Earthquake is a sudden release of energy due to faults. Natural calamities like earthquakes
can neither be predicted nor prevented. However, the severity of the damages can be …

Probabilistic seismic hazard analyses are usually performed with semi-empirical ground
motion models (GMMs) following the ergodic assumption whereby average source, path …

This study investigates the conditions for which one-dimensional (1-D) nonlinear (NL) site
response analysis results are distinct from equivalent-linear (EL) results and provides …

In recent years there has been renewed interest on integral abutment bridges (IABs), mainly
due to their low construction and maintenance cost. Owing to the monolithic connection …

Nonlinear (NL) soil behavior often exhibits a strong influence on surficial ground motions,
and seismic site‐response models attempt to quantify these effects. However, site‐response …

We present a summary of the Bayless and Abrahamson (2018b) empirical ground‐motion
model (GMM) for shallow crustal earthquakes in California based on the Next Generation …

In this paper, optimum intensity measures for probabilistic seismic demand model of subway
stations with different burial depths are investigated. A three-story three-span subway station …

The study presents a liquefaction potential analysis for the Thailand-Myanmar border area
due to the earthquake. Three sites reported liquefaction during Tarlay earthquake in 2011 …
