Whatever the level of seismicity of a country, the seismic risk has to be assessed and accounted in the frame of nuclear plant safety, from its design, during its operati [...]

A binary mixture model is proposed to study the effects on liquefaction-induced settlement after soil improvement based on the consideration of the added spatial variabil [...]

The current seismic design philosophy is based on nonlinear behavior of structures where the foundation soil is often simplified by a modification of the input accelerati [...]

The development of excess pore pressure (∆pw ) and consequent reduction in effective stress leads to the softening of a liquefiable soil deposit that can alter ground m [...]

As a first approach to account for site effects on the behaviour of collapsed structures during the Cariaco Earthquake of 1997 in Venezuela, a simplified soil profile was [...]
