This paper investigates the coherence factor of rhythmic jumping and its application for simulation of crowd jumping load. Experiments were conducted using three-dimensio [...]

This paper presents a new modified yield point spectra (YPS) method, which can be used to assure seismic design safety. Historical earthquake data have shown that structu [...]

Fundamental frequency and damping ratio of soil are very important parameters for calculating dynamic responses of underground structures subject to earthquake excitation [...]

As the world's famous and grand water project, Three Gorges Reservoir has the most comprehensive means in monitoring network, including digital remote sensing seismic net [...]

The research about the underground-pipes excited by dynamical seismic wave is still blanket all over the world. By the two layered-equipped shear boxes fixed on the shaki [...]

Cyclic tests on post-tensioned (PT) connections have demonstrated self-centering capabilities with gap opening, closing at the beam-to-column interface. When the gap open [...]

A structural model using the generalized single degree of freedom (SDF) system is proposed for seismic design of concrete rectangular Liquid Containing Structures (LCS). [...]
