During earthquake ground shaking earth pressures on retaining structures can cyclically increase and decrease as a result of inertial forces applied to the walls and kine [...]

As part of a loss-estimation and emergency response planning exercise for a major earthquake on the San Andreas fault east of Los Angeles (ShakeOut), ground motions were [...]

Full-Scale cyclic field testing was performed on a 3x3 pile group and a separate single fixed-head pile to evaluate group interaction effects. The piles in each experimen [...]

Nonductile concrete buildings arguably represent the greatest seismic life safety hazard in many urban centers world-wide because of their collapse potential. This paper [...]
