The objective of this study is to ascertain the causes of damage to buildings that occurred
due to an earthquake near its source, particularly in the Pleret sub-district in Yogyakarta …

In this paper, responses of reinforced concrete core-wall structures connected to the outside
columns by buckling-restrained brace (BRB) outriggers in tall buildings were investigated …

In near‐fault regions, forward directivity causes long‐period pulse‐like motions with high
amplitude and short duration perpendicular to the fault surface. Pulse‐like motions have …

In the latest three decades, the steel plate shear walls (SPSW) system has emerged as a
promising lateral load resisting system for both construction new buildings and retrofit of …

The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of reservoir sedimentation on the seismic
damage of concrete gravity dams using nonlinear incremental dynamic analysis. The study …

The use of the concept of earthquake input energy under far-filed earthquakes and types of
internal energy in structures has recently been mentioned to develop the performance …

Sažetak Previous studies have revealed that near-fault ground motions perpendicular to the
fault slip are very destructive for structures. Due to the common use of moment resisting …

Strong ground motions of near-fault earthquakes are mostly generated by forward-directivity
effects. Forward-directivity effects develop energetic pulses particularly in horizontal velocity …

In the regions near to active faults, if the fault rupture propagation is towards the site and the
shear wave propagation velocity is near the velocity of fault rupture propagation, the forward …

During the past years, researchers have developed ideas to thoroughly investigate the
behavior of structural bracing systems. Accordingly, one of these emerging systems is the …
