Maintaining the functionality, productivity, and safety of communities necessitates the seismic reliability of lifeline infrastructure networks. However, assessing the re [...]

This study explores the physical mechanisms by which the duration of strong ground motion influences structural response. While a number of previous studies have found th [...]

The Central and Eastern United States has recently experienced a large number of earthquakes that are suspected of being induced by anthropogenic activities. Seismic risk [...]

We evaluate the impact of earthquake magnitude distribution, ground motion prediction equations, and exposure on repair cost risk for induced seismicity at a site in Okla [...]

A methodology was recently proposed for the development of hazard-compatible building fragility models using parameters of capacity curves and damage state thresholds fro [...]

The objective of the study presented herein is to access the influence of rupture directivity on the inducement of liquefaction in loose, saturated sand. Rupture directiv [...]
