Traditionally, damage identification techniques in bridges have focused on monitoring
changes to modal-based Damage Sensitive Features (DSFs) due to their direct relationship …

During the twentieth century, several methods to assess the stability of slopes during
earthquakes were developed. Pseudostatic analysis was the earliest method; it involved …

Earthquake-induced sliding displacement is the parameter most often used to assess the
seismic stability of slopes. The expected displacement can be predicted as a function of the …

A novel scalar ground motion intensity measure (IM), termed the energy‐frequency
parameter, is proposed based on the Hilbert‐Huang transform. To validate the effectiveness …

Permanent sliding displacement represents a common damage parameter for evaluating the
seismic stability of slopes. Recently developed empirical models for the sliding displacement …

This paper discusses the applicability of two simple models for predicting pore water
pressure generation in nonplastic silty soil during cyclic loading. The first model was …

For performance‐based design, nonlinear dynamic structural analysis using various types of
input ground motions is required. Stochastic (simulated) ground motions are sometimes …

A scalar intensity measure (IM) could be insufficient to represent the earthquake intensity
and variety in fragility estimation. Introducing multiple IMs to conventional regression of …

A parameterized stochastic model of near‐fault ground motion in two orthogonal horizontal
directions is developed. The major characteristics of recorded near‐fault ground motions are …

Assessing the dynamic stability of earth slopes is an important topic in geotechnical
engineering field. In this study, the duration effect on the seismic performance of a multi …
