The present study aims at proposing a method to evaluate the peak frequency in the microtremor H/V spectra efficiently. The proposed method deals with the spectra as the [...]

This study aims at proposing an evaluation method of the life-cycle cost of quay walls in view of earthquake resistance. Major failure mode of quay walls by earthquake is [...]

A major criterion of damage levels of a gravity type quay wall by an earthquake is residual deformation. For example, maximum residual deformations of gravity type quay w [...]
