Considering on transmogrification of pile foundation under load, the basis function equations of the element-free Galerkin method were built, and a meshless method based [...]

A random vibration methodology is formulated for the seismic analysis of cable-stayed bridges subjected to spatially varying ground motions. The ground motion spatial var [...]

Using satellite remote sensing data to derive building attributes and earthquake vulnerability characteristics makes the rapid assessment of dynamic earthquake losses in [...]

The original structural design of this case study consisted of five basement floors and a 34-story hotel tower in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The construction started in 1993 and [...]

This paper describes an analytical model for seismic response of buried pipelines to surface wave propagation effects. This model accounts for the mechanism of shear tran [...]

In this paper, a global limit state function for load-carrying capacity of structural system is firstly set up, in which the margin of safety is the difference between th [...]

Probabilistic seismic demand analysis (PSDA) is an approach for computing the mean annual frequency of exceeding a specified seismic demand for a given structure at a des [...]

A procedure is developed for the earthquake response analysis of dam–reservoir-foundation system. The arch/gravity dam and a near filed foundation region are modeled wi [...]

CFRP has a light weight, high tensile strength, and a high resistance to the corrosion and fatigue. These properties make CFRP attracted increasing interests in civil eng [...]

This paper presents two series of tests on steel beam to concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) column connections and repaired concrete-filled steel tubular connections af [...]
