Large earthquakes and tsunamis can damage or lead to the collapse of lifeline bridges,
resulting in human and socioeconomic losses as well as prolonged recovery times …

Shallow landslides are a prevalent concern in mountainous or hilly regions that can result in
severe societal, economic, and environmental impacts. The challenge is further …

Identical ground motion excitations at all supports are typically assumed in practice for the
design and seismic analysis of structures. Such assumption is customarily made despite the …

This paper investigates the quantitative effects of ground motion directionality on fragility
curves of highway bridges. For this purpose, the influence of soil-structure interaction (SSI) is …

The safety, stability, and long-term performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures
depend significantly on soil-structure interaction (SSI), a critical phenomenon governing the …

The objective of this study is to examine and compare the vulnerabilities of highway bridges
to the combined effects of earthquake shaking, ground failure, and tsunami loading …

This paper examines the seismic performance of a bridge–helical pile foundation based on
the seismic fragility analysis, considering the element fragility of a coupled bridge–soil …

Numerous bridge structures on Japan's eastern coast were damaged by the intense ground
motion and subsequent tsunami caused by the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake. Damage …

Abstract During the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, numerous bridge
structures were damage or destroyed. The damage to bridge systems was caused by long …

The steel diagrid structural system is a recent load bearing and lateral resisting structural
system for tall building structures that is relatively unexplored in the western United States …
