The aim of this work is the investigation of the correlation between seismic damage measures and the sustainability of response displacement peak, deduced from novel 3-D response spectra. These spectra are produced with relatively small additional computational cost compared to their 2-D counterparts and incorporate valuable additional information concerning the sustainability of conventional s...

This paper examines differences in performances of a range of torsionally stiff and flexible single story buildings designed with the provisions of Iranian Standard 2800. Seismic nonlinear dynamic time history behavior of eight building models subjected to seven horizontal bi-directional design spectra compatible ground motions are investigated. These models cover a wide range of very torsional...

toxicity bioassays are important tools to determine biological effects of chemical agents on species. the questions remained on, what effects have been imposed on each of the different molecular site of cells by chemical exposure and how to find a pattern for chemical toxicity. to address the questions, hepg2 cell lines were exposed to the different concentrations of cisplatin for 24 hours to r...

SHAKE2000 and DEEPSOIL are the two most important programs to calculate the response analysis of soil layer. In order to analyze the similarities and differences between them, and to guide the improvement of the method and program of seismic response analysis of soil layer, 25 KiK net seismic records from 9 stations were selected as the research objects in this paper, from the aspects of surfac...
