Dynamic Characteristics of Buildings Estimated from Strong Motion Records
Estimation of the dynamic characteristics of buildings is a key issue in seismic design technology. Since 1957, the Building Research Institute (BRI), Japan, has been operating a network to monitor strong motion in buildings. In this study, dynamic characteristics of 25 actual buildings in the BRI network were estimated by using strong motion records. Acceleration records from two sensors respe...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Pile Foundation Subjected to Strong Ground Motion Using Fiber Elements
In this paper, pile behavior embedded in layered soil deposits subjected to seismic loadings is analyzed using a nonlinear fiber element for simulation of soil – pile interactions. In the created model, both pile and surrounding soil are modeled using fiber elements in a practical Beam on Nonlinear Winkler Foundation (BNWF) concept. Herein, the features of DRAIN–3DX finite element software are ...
متن کاملRadioactivity of surface soils from Oyo state, South Western Nigeria
Background: The activity concentrations of some radionuclides in soil samples collected from 20 locations in 8 major towns in Oyo State, Southwestern Nigeria have been determined by gamma-ray spectrometry technique. Materials and Methods: The activity concentrations were determined using high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector (Canberra Industries Inc.). The outdoor absorbed dose rates in air at ...
متن کاملDynamic and Cyclic Properties of Soils
Response of soil depends on both the mechanical properties of soil itself and the nature of loading. Many geotechnical engineering problems are associated with dynamic and cyclic loadings, such as ocean wave or ice loading applied on foundations of offshore structures or bridges, dynamic loading applied on foundations of offshore wind power structures, ocean wave loading on harbor structures, s...
متن کاملPROPERTIES OF STRONG GROUND MOTION EARTHQUAKES* By
THE USUAL type of California earthquake is associated with a relative horizontal slipping of the two faces of a fault which lies essentially in a vertical plane. As a consequence of this slipping, the surface of the ground experiences a severe motion in the neighborhood of the fault during large earthquakes. This surface ground motion can be measured, and for the relatively small number of stro...
