The 3 April 2017 Mw 6.5 Moiyabana earthquake (Central Botswana) had a significant impact on groundwater levels; a gradual co-seismic increase and a stepwise decline in groundwater levels were observed in response to the earthquake at boreholes MH2 and Z1...

The southwestern region of China is close to the Eurasian earthquake zone. Many engineering areas in southwestern China are affected by earthquakes and are close to the epicenter of earthquakes that occur in this region. During earthquakes, slopes with w...

Liquefaction caused by long-term cyclic loads in loose saturated soil can lead to ground subsidence and superstructure failures. To address this issue, this study aimed to emulate the liquefaction phenomenon based on a shaking table test while especially...

For measuring the structural health of buildings, high-performance vibration detection devices are used in a structural health monitoring (SHM) system, which consists of a sensor and a data logger. Those devices are seismographs or devices with high-perf...

Damage to devices installed in electric substations, which have shown vulnerable behaviour under strong earthquakes in the last decades, may endanger power delivery in the emergency phases during and after an earthquake. Within seismic risk assessment of...

Wind and/or earthquake-imposed loadings on two dynamically similar adjacent buildings cause vigorous shaking that can be mitigated using energy dissipating devices. Here, the vibration response control in such adjacent structures interconnected with semi...

A five-story moment frame structural model with a base isolation system was tested on a shaking table. The isolation system comprised both linear natural rubber bearing (LNR) and nonlinear viscous dampers (NLVDs). Seven ground motions were employed: incl...
