Abstract Kahramanmaraş Earthquake Sequence of 6th of February is the deadliest
earthquake that happened in Turkey in the era of instrumental seismology, claiming more …

Rigorous assessment of structural response to seismic excitation poses challenges for
researchers in their bid to account for the effects of (1) biaxial interaction; and (2) incidence …

This paper examines the rocking response and stability of rigid blocks standing free on an
isolated base supported:(a) on linear viscoelastic bearings,(b) on single concave and (c) on …

This paper investigates the rocking response of a slender column that is vertically restrained
with an elastic tendon that passes through its centerline. Following a variational formulation …

The existing observational database of the regional-scale distribution of strong ground
motions and measured building response for major earthquakes continues to be quite …

This paper analyses the effects of vertical seismic force on initiation mechanism of near-fault
large-scale landslides by using the Daguangbao landslide induced by the 2008 Wenchuan …

Permanent displacement predictive modeling can be used with geotechnical and
seismological parameters to assess hazard assessment of earthquake-induced landslides …

Many post-earthquake investigations have found that natural slopes and geotechnical
structures near the faults can be seriously damaged by earthquakes. Pile-anchor structure is …

The catastrophic earthquake-induced failure of slopes concentrically distributed at near-fault
area, which indicated the special features of near-fault ground motions, ie horizontal pulse …

SUMMARY A common type of ancient monuments around the Mediterranean is the ancient
Greek temple. Unfortunately, very few remain intact; most of them surviving in the form of free …
